LIGHTER SIDE Quotations live on Kaysville Main St. reconstruction CYCLOPS Continued from page one In our very column published more than one year ago we noted the importance of a good quotation... And one year later, we still have some creative kernals of prose coming from the mouths of area residents. A good quotation has a long life. Billionaire J. Paul Getty's statement that The meek shall inherit the earth but not its mineral rights has lived long past his death. ..and the Waylan couldnt go Jennings line about his becoming a pop artist pop if I were a firecracker!) is still legend in Nashville circles. The idiotic quotation also lives on. (Think of the haunting quote by rock and soul singer Ike Turner: Yea, I hit my wife Tina--bI didnt hit her more than the average guy beats his This until type of idiocy will haunt this Mr. wife!) his dying days. But northern Utahns cannot be brushed aside either. Here are some of my favorite quotes. First Main will have to park on the west and enter the business from the rear, because there will be no foot .

FROM DR. LAWRENCE WELLING, SUPERINTENDENT OF DAVIS COUNTY SCHOOLS: "We hear a lot about potential floods. Well, theres another flood coming--- a flood of children entering our public school system." FROM SUSAN JENSEN, EDITOR OF THE VIEWMONT HIGH SCHOOL NEWSPAPER: Students often receive an education resembling Swiss Cheese... a program with a lot of holes in it. FROM YVONNE ALEXANDER, AN ENGLISH TEACHER AT KAYSVILLE JUNIOR HIGH (after a parent, questioning her daughters English grade, told Mrs. Alexander that her daughter had previously received an 'A in her French class): Well, if thats the case, then maybe your daughter should go to France and attend school!" FROM FRED BALL, DIRECTOR OF THE SALT LAKE AREA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, IN A SPEECH AT A DAVIS COUNTY CHAMBER LUNCHEON: Dont crave to be liked; crave to be respected. You should always have someone mad at you. Then you know you are doing something. FROM A BOUNTIFUL HIGH TEACHER, COMMENTHIGH SCHOOL SCHEING ON THE schedule DULE: In terms of student learning, the makes as much sense as putting catsup on cottage cheese!

She just cannot sit back and get $1,600 per month from this fellow and then do nothing to help support herself. Society doesnt tolerate that from any of us. She has the same obligations to take care of herself as we all have.. And, of course, sometimes the quotation is involved with an unusual situation. In the March customer newsletter from Winder Dairy, the story is told of a Davis County woman who wrote a note to her husband. The note, unfortunately, was placed in an empty bottle for the milkman. Upon stopping at the house, the baffled routeman read the note, thinking it was for him: If you leave again without telling me where you are going, Ill keep you inside the house for the rest of the month!" The milkman left hurridly! A Rodeo queen clinic set LOGAN - Young women with their sights set on becoming rodeo queens can get some help in the -- Utah State University Rodeo Queen Clinic.

AT THE first state convention a year ago only about 250 persons, most of them professional personnel, attended, according to a conference official.

Growing and smuggling oi cocaine from the nine countries of the Amazon was startling and the horror of the problem became graphic when a Priest showed him a newspaper clipping of an incident that described in detail how a old boy was kidnapped, killed and his body gutted so that cocaine could be stuffed inside the body.

SO TAKING a terrible risk, his camera crew filmed the cocaine production fields of Columbia, Peru and Bolivia; documenting the plants being grown and the farmers who were growing them. They also filmed the women who were used to smuggle the cocaine out of the area, the law enforcement officials who looked the other way, the drug dealers, the addicts and the treatment programs that were offered.

He noted that surveys of the youth he has become familiar with reveal that 90 percent first said no to offers of drug useage but later caved in to peer pressure.

Edwards gave a slide presentation to the members of the Board of Health at their monthly board meeting on the dangers of Smokeless Tobacco. DR. EDWARDS is on the staff of L.DS Hospital and is a cancer specialist. He has also given this presentation to youth, school and church groups. He presented information showing that of the top 15 killers, six of the top 10 are related to smoking. Cigarettes, alcohol and drugs and related problems all cause death but cigarettes lead. According to his presentation 45 percent of heart disease is related to smoking and one of every three cancers are cigarette related. DR. EDWARDS said that the effects of smoking show up slowly. It takes 250,000 showed slides of people with mouth cancers from the use of chewing tobacco. cigarettes or 30 years of smoking. Men in the United States did not start smoking widely until 1910. Cancer in men began showing up in large numbers in the I950s. Women began smoking during the I940's and their incidents of cancer began to accelerate in the 70s. CLOVE cigarettes also present a potential for serious long term risk. Dr. Edwards pointed out that Clove cigarettes are about 60 percent tobacco but that the burning cloves produces Eugenol, a topical antesthesia that masks some of the damage that is being done to the lungs. Now many young people are using smokeless tobacco such as chewing tobacco believing that it is less dangerous than cigarette use. Of the 22 million people who use tobacco. 10 percent are now using smokeless tobacco. Chewing tobacco, however is comparable to smoking cigarettes and inhaling. Dr. Edwards Clove cigarettes which are very expensive, have been sold in the past in Utah but are most popular in California where they are used mainly by young adults. DR. EDWARDS will also be giving a presentation at the Salt Palace during the Utah Association for Drug Free Youth conference. |
