FAHRLENDER ELLEN I. FAHRLENDER David Ingles Frazer On November 25, 1904, David Ingles Frazer and sons purchased Beaver's local newspaper and all equipment from O.A. Whitaker and Robert Shelton, editors and manager of the Beaver "Utonion." The Frazers were soon in business for themselves. In my early search for history of places and peoples of Beaver County, I learned a great deal about Mr. Frazer, and that most everyone in town referred to him as "D.I." He became one of Beaver's most devoted citizens. He was hard working, progressive and a real booster for his town. He loved Beaver County, believed in it and never lost faith in it. He served as mayor of this community for six or eight years. In this capacity, along with his newspaper he was in a position to expound to the outside world the magnitude of Beaver County's potential.

RODNEY SCOTT EYRE Scott Eyre Scholarship Established A scholarship endowment in honor of the late Rodney Scott Eyre, Minersville, has been established at Southern Utah State College by his parents, Garold Fay and Marybelle Eyre. The $100 scholarship will be presented each year to a Beaver High School senior who is active in agricultural activities. "Rodney was an excellent farmer and rancher. He loved agriculture so we want to help someone with similar interests," Mrs. Eyre said. Eyre was a graduate of Beaver High School where he was Future Farmers of American President, parliamentarian and a member of BHS soil and livestock judging teams. He worked with his father on their farm and cattle operation in Minersville while his mother worked with the United States Department of Agriculture as county supervisor for Farmers Home Administration in Iron County. The Boys State e representative and 1979-8- 0 Football player died Feb. 4th in a truck rollover. The scholarship endowment, his mother said, has been established through contributions made by family and friends. "This is a very thoughtful gesture which will keep the memory of our much loved son alive," she said. "The scholarship will be awarded each year to a young person who shares Rodney's interest and love for agriculture and who plans to attend SUSC," said Jack Bishop, SUSC Director of Development. "It is a very special scholarship endowment.'!

If he learned of new strikes or other developments he was immediately on the trail and one could be sure there would be a glowing account of it in his next week's paper. In gloomy days when business lagged or men became discouraged and threw down their picks and shovels, when steps were slower and smiles a little fainter D.I. was on the job. His paper groaned under the big bold type that blazed across the pages reminding people that better times were just ahead - good news in the making - greater opportunities just around the corner - brighter days will soon be here - business was bound to get better - Beaver County's chances for growth and prosperity were never better.

The famous and fabulous Horn Silver Mine and placed Beaver county on the industrial maps of the world, and for years afterward, the stars shown down over Beaver County. Mr. Frazer never lost sight of those stars. A few mines had come to light since the pioneers had arrived in the valley, now, the hills were pocketed with shafts and tunnels, but not all gave forth pay dirt. Mr. Frazer kept close watch and gave much time and study to the work and achievements of the entire county's hundreds of strangers were within their gates. Many came and went. Some came thinking to strike it rich, some came hunting employment, others looked for a place to build a home. Some came out of curiousity, to see for themselves, to touch the rocks and grab a handful of mellow soil, the thickly wooded forests, watched the plowmen in the fields, or miners at work in the hills. As time went on these were not the only things that met the eye. The deserts had blossomed as the rose. There were fields of growing grains and alfalfa in season, there were orchards and gardens and beautiful meadows. There were cattle, sheep, hogs, chickens, ducks and geese. There were cellars, granaries, big barns, and pits all filled with the fruits of their labors. Wheels were turning in mills and factories, mines were pouring forth their wealth, and Bearer County's people were prosperous and contented. They were richer than they knew. Their blessings were many. It was a glorious era. Let's think back to a clear cold day in late November, 1904, a chilly wind was blowing. Home fires burned or in brightly on hearthstones heaters. Tea kettles hummed softly at the back of shiney black stoves. Children wrapped to the eyes in" soft, wooly things, walked to school, chattering gaily as they went. Wagon wheels made music in the snow, cattle were lowing in the lanes. Men on horseback galloped by. To most folks in Beaver, it was just another ordinary winter's day. To the D.I. Fjazer family, it was special. Down town in his newly acquired office, Mr. Frazer sat at his desk, thinking, writing, planning. Finally he raised his head and spoke to others in the room.
