The story starts back In 1905, the birthday of the Forest Service, when the first William Hurst was appointed assistant ranger on the old Beaver National Forest in Southern Utah. Within two months he had risen to Forest Supervisor, appointed by Gifford Pinchot, the first Chief Forester of the United States. Before the first William Hurst left the Service in 1913 to become county surveyor for Beaver County, his son William M., had passed the Forest Ranger examination and on July 1, 1910 became assistant ranger at Panguitch. While William M.was very enthusiastic, energetic group of 92 volunteers cooperated together to plant over 1000 Ponder-os- a Pine tree seedlings in Beaver highway along the Canyon, and in Little Cottonwood campground, on the Flshlake National bicentennial signing of the U.S. Constitution, using "Plant a Living Legacy" as a symbol; the only living witnesses to the constitution. The group consisted of Milford and Beaver Boy Scouts, along with their leaders, Forest Service emTo ployees and their spouses. start this patriotic occasion, three trees were planted In LlttleCotton-woo- d campground by Beatrice Hurst assisted by Fred Houston.

The Uniform Time Act created this monster in 1967, says my almanac (it doesnt use those words, exactly), so we've been living with it for 20 years. I'm sure there was a good reason for it: Summer picnics can last longer into the evenings, for Instance. Play softball a little longer. Have seconds on the potato salad. beneTo me, the energy-savifits seem flimsy. We may have ng to turn on the lights as early In the evening, but we have to turn on the lights earlier In the morning. Of course, I could be wrong. I'm just speaking from my own experience, not for the nation. But I think the sun's schedule is the same regardless of what clocks read. Isnt it? Some places exempted themselves from this crazy Uniform Time Act: Hawaii, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands and American Samoa.
