LOTTIE ROSS FARRER. SOPHIA MARION ELLISON KAYLOR My Mother was born in Occilla, Georgia in 1907. When she was seventeen my father married her and brought her to the state of California where I was born. One of the most prominent things I remember about my Mother was 'she was always there.' When I was young, about two feet high, I can remember helping her with the dishes. There was such a satisfaction to think I had been such a big helper. It wasn't until I was a Mother that 1 realized she had probably had to do them all over again, but she was teaching me with patience. . I would like to pay tribute to my mother, Carene Ivie Baldwin, this Mother's Day. A very dedicated wife and mother. She was born September 14, 1930 in Nephi, Utah to James Delial and Vergie Mae Williams Ivie. She was the first child born to this union and had six younger brothers and sisters. in ; She was raised on a farm Flowell, Utah, near Fillmore. She learned the value of work and of the dollar. Her parents were hard workers and kept busy with their farm and had the responsibility of cleaning the church building. Carene was given the responsibility of keeping the house cleaned and cooking the meals when she was only 9 years old. When she vyas 17 she was given a very hard task to fulfill, that of caring for her invalid grandfather. She was quite small and frail and he was six feet tall which made caring for hjm very difficult. '; Dancing has always been one of Carene's interests. While in high school she participated in adagio dancing and was very good at it. The family loves to look at the photographs of her dancing. J She met Donald Baldwin on a blind date. She was at a movie when her girlfriends came and got her. They introduced the two and they spent their first evening together riding around and getting acquainted. Don went on a mission when Carene was a Junior in High School. She their seventies they y hay-ride- father. : man- age to play three or four times a week.

Kim Solberg would go without if someone in her family needed something. She is always giving of herself and doesn't want anything in return for her favors. She is a beautiful seamstress and made all of the children's clothes for years. She is a hard worker and enjoys her work. She has been an Avon representative, worked at the Variety Store for years, helped hands Tiny reached into the cradle to welcome the little one, because, you see, Lottie was one of seven children -f- ive older than she. She was born into a family of love and faith in God. Her mother was a Mormon Pioneer, and her father was a young convert to the Latter-daSaint Church. Their home was strict, but abounded in kindness, love and faith. Her childhood sounds as if it were a page from a storybook-hi- gh button shoes, ice skating on and trips to the canal, with her General Conference . in Utah. County, something kind for one of our neighbors and only became a little upset when she returned one home from a neighbors morning to find my younger brother and me (about age 10) making bacon and eggs with all the trimmings for an old tramp, who sat happily at our breakfast table. After all we knew him, he came around every year selling pencils and Mother had always fed him. There were five of us children. Mother took us to church every Sunday and taught us christian principles. Daddy was a business man and Mother was always a Mother. It seemes she was a PTA President all our life. She was quite a reader and taught us all to appreciate books. Thats why, I guess, I have a library of about 1400 books. My parents have made the decision-to-move to Beaver and our familyis so excited to have them so close. I know their new neighbors will love them. Both are avid golfers and although they are . In 1888, in the quiet of a cool March night, when the world was lulled to rest, Lottie Ross was born. The birth took place in a simple cottage in the little community of Joseph, Sevier Mother was always doing finished hejr Junjpr arqtJSeniQJ years of school, graduated'and' then was employed at the high school as a secretary until Don returned from his mission two years later.

They raised their family on a farm in Manderfield. Carene loves to read in her spare time. One of her hobbies is her plants. She has quite a green thumb. She has a beautiful collection of plants in her kitchen. She is an excellent cook and her candoughnuts and home-mad- e dies are hard to beat. She has faced many tragedies in her life. Losing her close brother was very difficult for her. Her children have been quite a trial yet a joy to her. She recently lost her youngest son which has been like losing a part of her. She is the type of mother who . SSSSSSS5 5SS96SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS She attended school in Sevier County, and finally went to Murdock Academy in Beaver. Here she met Wesley William Farrer. Wesley's courting was accomplished by horse-back- , when he would take the upward climb over Clear Creek, down through Cove, to Joseph. They were married in 1908, in the Salt Lake City Temple, and Wesley left that day for a mission to Boston, Mass. Lottie worked while he served on his mission. Her jobs at Kimberly and Joseph kept her busy while Wesley was away. Letters of love deepened their devotion for each other. Upon his return they established their first home in a little house down on the Tannetfarnu, The union.pf Wesley and Lottie brought seven children-ChlWells, Ross, Claudia, McKay, Quedcll, and Rondo. Lottie lived in the time when friends were dear, but worldly goods were few. She tells of visits to Mrs. Reese's General Store. Dill pickles bubbled in the barrel No eyes like the eyes of mother can see in us all that is best. Remembering all of our goodness, forgetting all of the rest. No feet like the feet of our Mother, that hasten to be at our side. To comfort our hour of suffering, to share in the joys that betide. No hand like the hand of our mother, so gentle to soothe and so kind. When God gave to us a mother, twas the choicest gift he could find. We love ai.d appreciate you very much.

She cements a friendly feeling when she helps a sister sew small straight stitches at a quilting bee. Many fine heirlooms, hand sewn, have been made by her skillful fingers. Lottie lives alone. She rarely a Church meeting. Her children and her daughters-in-lalove her dearly. They find real contentment knowing she is misses there. The softening lines in her dear face are like fine old lace. She meets each day with grace and a prayer, and because her heart contains a peacefulness, she counts God's blessings still in store. By Louise A HOMEMADE Rolls - $4.80 doz.

I was a twin so my sister and I wore the same clothes. I got to pick out half of the material and my sister the other half. We hated each others material. As I grew up I always knew I could talk to my mother about anything and she was there to listen or to answer my questions. As I grew older and married I knew if I needed my mother all I had to do was call her and she would come. It never entered my mind that I was raised and my parents responsibility was over, or that mother might have other plans and didn't want to come and wait for the arrival of a child or attend my brood while I had surgery. My children loved to have gramdma come and visit. Grandma made their favorite foods, gave them their baths, tucked them in bed and all around spoiled them rotten. I know I am blessed to have my mother as long as J did. She lived long enough to see her grandchildren, to see them married and have her great grandchildren. herself. Religion has been a big part in our lives and each of us are truly grateful. There have been four boys and one girl go on missions for the L.D.S. Church. 1 can truly say my mother has done her best. If we could take a little if not all of in knowledge of homemaking and in bringing up children, we as her children, could also be as fantastic a mother as she is and has been in what she has the past. Now that most pf the children are gone, instead of spoiling children, she now gets to be spoiled and our Father does a good job of it. So on this Mother's Day, every child should spoil his or her mother as mothers deserve to be spoiled! WE LOVE YOU MOTHER! ! HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!! Kathleen Wright and Cindy Stauffer ! Never I pray did I ever take anything she did for me for granted and that I was callus enough not to thank her for what she gave of herself. I will always remember.

The daughters kept track of the little children and did the house work. Indian families stopped by for commodities or to trade pine nuts for bread. Fast offerings of fresh-laieggs, home smoked hams and bacon, sacks of golden grain needed to be cared for, so the ward's needy could be helped. Wesley was then elected Mayor for two terms. Still more fell on Lottie's shoulders, but, undaunted in her faith, she found time to serve in her Church in the Relief Society and the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers.

One of the last things my mother said to me when I saw her was to give her all the love I had. 1 said "Mother, you already have that." She said do I, I said yes, but mother if I get any more I will send it to you. I came home knowing my mother was going to die. Not knowing when. Every week I sent my mother my love. I never wrote her a letter and told her why I loved her because I didn't want my mother to know she was dying. Since then I have wondered many times if my mother knew why I loved her. Most children and young adults take for granted the many, many things their parents do for them. Some I'm sure feel their mothers owe it to them for having the child in the first place. My mother did a lot for me and my sisters and brother because my father worked crazy hours and long hours. Sometimes two weeks without a day off. There were four of us. I can't say I was deprived of anything. My father always worked. My mother never learned to drive a car, so everywhere we went we walked. It never mattered what we wanted to do or where we went. Mother would go along. She would take us to the Saturday afternoon movie. This was boring for an adult but she stayed with us. We kept asking what was going to happen and all the questions we ask now. When we would come home from school she would have four snacks on the table for us. Our house and yard were where all the neighborhood kids came to play. I look back now and wonder how mother stood it. We would play games on the kitchen table for hours. The doors in our house were made so one pushed in and one pushed out.
