Show B6 The Emery County Review, Tuesday, November 4, 2008 Events Historical Society enjoy discussion on ‘Many Voices’ of county Kathy Ockey The Emery County Historical Society held their monthly meeting Oct. 23. Ray Grange conducted a flag ceremony presented by the Boy Scouts and Joyce Staley, society chairman, welcomed a large crowd. County Archivist, Dottie Grimes, presented the program, “Many Voices - Oral History of Emery County.” She reported the archives have received a grant to gather oral histories of local residents and the grant requires a yearly presentation of the information received. The program opened with a short slide show of the original San Rafael swinging bridge during construction and the dedication claiming the “Mystery Lands Opened.” Grimes told the group about the informative kiosk that has Crossword From Page B2. been placed at the site. Grimes said the Utah State Humanities and State Historical Society are the agencies that have provided a grant to the archives to make it possible for them to find and record oral histories. The goal is to get the oldest residents to be interviewed and get their remembrances and histories recorded for the generations yet to come. She said, “This generation has spanned two worlds – they are the generation that knew days and ways we will only know through their reminisces, their donations, and their memories.” She said if anyone wants or needs their oral histories recorded contact her. The historial society has people who will interview them. She said, “Each person has an interesting history and their own perspective of their lives and surroundings”. The evening also included a discussion of the local CCC Camp, the many things they accomplished during the depression and how they were prepared to go to into World War II with this training. The group enjoyed a slide show featuring many previous residents, locations of interest and the Wilberg Resort.

Most people will eventually say what they are thinking. Your gift this week is that you speak your mind in real time, and the result shakes things up in a positive way. This weekend, your boldness is an invitation to someone who is equally honest and forceful. There will be a powerful meeting of minds. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The best feeling of the week comes when you reach an understanding with that person who’s been difficult to read lately. This doesn’t happen because of a conversation you have or any new knowledge you acquire. It’s a change in you, a new level of openness and acceptance, that brings harmony to the relationship. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your feelings don’t lie -- although they do have a tendency to exaggerate Tuesday and Wednesday. There is a wide range of choice involved in your interpretation of events. If you’re going to exaggerate, do so in the direction of levity and humor. You could bring your whole group up with you. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Busy and bustling is your natural state of being. You certainly don’t have to search for ways to fill your time. All you have to do is sit at home and life will come to you. However, it’s definitely more satisfying to proactively further and follow your interests. Get thee to the calendar section and make some plans! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Other people’s opinions are no longer as powerful as they were a few months ago. You’re starting to realize that what works for them is not necessarily going to work for you. Besides, some of the people you were listening to aren’t as qualified as you once believed. And your own ideas are pretty stellar now. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). There are risks you’ve been too nervous to take, like making a cold call, going to a networking event or asking someone special to spend time with you. This week emboldens you to go forward and do what you’ve been thinking about. The nerves don’t go completely away, but they are manageable. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’re looking for fast results. It’s not that overnight transformations don’t happen; they do, though usually the effect is an illusion. Amazing changes are most often the culmination of hundreds of steps that occurred over time. Instead of hoping for instant gratification, take one step. Then take another. (Holiday Mathis is the author of “Rock Your Stars.” Copyright 2008 Creators Syndicate Inc.) |
