I have heard of cases where children learned to play the piano at the age of two and were writing sonatas by the time they were six, but fortunately Beethoven didn't live In our neighborhood. Frankly, I think It would be rather scary to be the mother of a child prodigy. Once he has read an entire encyclopedia set page by page and taken apart the car engine and put it back together again, what else can you do to challange him? I suppose its a natural Instinct for a parent to wish his child is better than the rest or at least that he is keeping up with the But feel sorry for the new mother who comes away from pack. such a jam session believing that it Is normal for babies to be walking at eight months of age and to be toilet trained by the time they are a year old. I have nothing bit pity for the mother of an eight -- month old child who walks and lots of envy for the woman who can finally turn her diapers into dish towels. Im not expecting miracles from my children. They can go ahead and develop at their own pace. But nothing would please me me more than if two little boys could find something to do besides baby would finally learn to sleep through the fight and if a year-ol- d night.

The last day at the fair with a larger paid attendance was on the last Saturday of the 1976 fair, when 35,680 Utahns thronged to the fairgrounds In Salt Lake City. But attendance hadnt been good up until 11 --day that day, and the total fell last below far gate paid years record of 209,471.

In addition, the revision would eliminate guaranteed supreme court aj peals of all district court den-- s .'ns, while preserving the rmht of at least one appeal to an appropriate court.

It wouli also provide for retention e'ection for judges in office. Noting that the legislature passed the revision with a nearly 90 percent favorable vote, Chief Justice Hall added, Utah voters should remember that Utah today is radically changed from the Utah of 25 years ago, not to mention the Utah of 1896. It is totally unreasonable to expect our courts to respond to modern problems without modern tools. The judicial branch must lie allowed to embrace change and accept needed improvements.
