Utah inventor of television subject of Centennial book Cherie Huber Contributing Writer The rapidly approaching Utah Centennial Celebration has tweaked the creativity of many Utahns. Lots of new products are now out wearing the Utah Centennial Logo. One very entertaining and educational new book out as part of the Centennial celebration is Dreams Do Come True. Its the story of Philo Farnsworth, the boy from Beaver who changed the world with his invention of television. Dreams Do Come True is written for older elementary school children. Philo, the little boy bom in Beaver, figured out how to accomplish one of the most astonishing things in the world and he affected all of our lives forever. And he got the idea for a way to send pictures through the air by watching the furrows in the field he . It has taken time for him to receive his well deserved recognition. Events like the issuance of a commemorative stamp picturing Philo and his dissector tube in 1983 and his election to the National Hall of Fame in 1984 and the placement of his statue in Statuary Hall in Washington, D.C. in 1990 along with the publication of Dreams Do Come True have helped to bring him his rightful recognition. Dreams Do Come True is an official Utah Centennial Product. The story was written by Corrie Lynne Player. She was designated as Farnsworths biographer by his family and has spent 30 years researching his life. Dreams Do Come True tells the story of Farnsworth as a child growing up in little towns in Utah. Besides painting a picture of his youth, it also tells much about life then and the March of Dimes Haunted House cast members are ready to scare the living daylights out of you.

In the extremely competitive home loan market, attractive deals are on the rise, but the best deals dont always get the loudest promotion. Ford Motor Company has advertised a loan which comes with a car purchase rebate. This loan offer targets those with checkered credit profiles and comes with a high rate of interest. These loans are certainly not the best deal in town (the nice rebate may not balance the extra Interest), but they are good for those who cant get a loan elsewhere. You should look at such programs carefully. Does It have a balloon payment? What will the total Interest be com- pared with other offers? A little math on your part will go a long way toward saving you money. And if your calculator cant do , the math, your mortgage broker, can explain all the details to ; : you.
