Its with grateful hearts that we acknowledge your safe return. Even though you are still on active duty for a little while longer, its reassuring to know that you are once again within our midst When you left for an uncertain destination at the start of the Desert Storm Operation, it was with fearful hearts that your communities bid you farewell. The tears shed were not only for you and your safety, but for the well being of your loved ones while you were gone. We followed your progress in Germany, thankful that you were serving well out of harms way and proud that you represented us so the elementary school Wednesday in honor of the school being one of five elementary schools in the state to receive the Governors Award for Excellence. Spring City Elementary was also honored. The event was attended by the students, parents and friends. Principal Clark Walker conducted. Board member Ronald L Ivory spoke and program numbers were presented by the children. Also in attendance were Rep. Ray Nielsen and former principal, Perry Christensen. Each child received a keepsake medallion Your participation in the Gulf War, brought us a new awareness of our own priceless freedom. It brought us also keenly in line with pie suffering of people in other nations. Our world is smaller than it was before. It will be a long time before were able to enjoy the comforts weve grown accustomed to without thinking of those, still homeless, who are refugees in their own lands. We flew our flags and tied yellow ribbons on familiar landmarks in honor of you and your families. Your absence united us. Our thoughts and prayers were for you. We are grateful that you left such a positive impression on those whose lives you touched in Germany. It is so much like you to want to leave your temporary home better than you found it. Your acts of service in that foreign country did more than endear you to the German people. You were representing not only yourselves, but your country and the small Utah communities that supported you. Thank you for portraying such a positive image for us all. You should be likewise proud of your families. They were stalwart in your absence, always supporting you and keeping life as normal as they could without you. Once we knew your approximate arrival date, we all counted the days. The banners and flags are a testimony of our own grateful hearts. We are proud of you all. Thank God youre home. well-swe- Sis-ti- pt r, Her-mans- en n, Sheriff posts $1500 reward for vandals - SALT LAKE CITY- A $1500 reward has been offered by Sanpete County electric power companies for information leading to the arrest and conviction of individuals who have shot power line insulators with firearms. Utah Power, Manti, Ephraim, Mt. Pleasant, Spring City and Fairview have combined resources and offered the reward to stop the vandalism. Citizens who may have information can contact the Sanpete or any County Sheriff, of the city police departments. "This is a serious problem," Preserving history not incompatible with cleanup 835-21Q- upon the land as for years" (D&C 51:17) even though their time in Nauvoo was cut short The story is even told of one great man who, with mobs almost at his doorstep, took time to make a needed repair so that whoever thereafter took possession would know that "people of class and distinction lived here." Nauvoo of today is a marvelous example of how history should be preserved. If a structure has decayed beyond repair, it has been demolished and either reconstructed or remembered through visual and written history. If a structure is found to be sound and repairable, it has been cleaned up, fixed up, well landscaped and preserved in its natural and setting. I offer one more example of how you might approach the preservation of your history. Simply look at your beautiful Spring City Chapel. You have taken great care to preserve the history of that edifice. God-intende- (3.90-4.00- ). FOUNTAIN GREE- N- Supt Brent Thorne was the keynote speaker at a special program at well. Dear Editor: I have been most interested in the many published comments relating the current controversy over Spring Citys clean up campaign. I have particular interest in statements of historical societies members advocating that Spring City remain untouched. I have also had opportunity to visit many historical sites throughout the world and I caution Spring City residents not to be deceived by much of what is being said. Preserving history is not inJust compatible with cleaning-up- . because something is ancient and historical is not justification for preserving it forever in its current state. If this were the case then we would likely be advocating the preservation of smallpox, polio and outhouses for everyone. As I have traveled, I have seen no wrecked cars blocking the view of the Roman Forum. There were no overgrown weeds and unpruned shrubbery entangling the paths of the Karnack and Luxor Temples. To climb the Acropolis of ancient Athens, one does not have to scale decaying barns and pig pens. King Tuts gold does not remain heaped carelessly in his tomb, in its proper "historical" condition, but is beautifully displayed in the Cairo Museum. Neatly paved roads guide the path to the Ancient Pyramids. Beautiful lawns, flowers and paths adorn Gethsemane. There is no garbage carelessly discarded in the halls of the ChapeL If you really want to reserve and accentuate your true history, I ask you to simply look to your ancestors, even to Nauvoo, The City Beautiful. Your grandparents who lived there had a great sense of community pride and order in their surroundings. They took seriously the charge of their Creator to "act (3.75-3.89- ); said Paul Henry, Richfield district manager for Utah Power. "Weve had several incidents of shootings in the past two months, mainly on the 46,000-voline between Manti and Moroni, but also on other Utah power and equipment in the past few years." lt city-owne- d "Reliable electrical service is the personal safety of many people," Henry said. "Hospitals, schools and civic authorities all depend on electricity to do much of their work. This kind of thoughtless destruction can be very dangerous." i, Rotary honors youth EPHRAITwo students were cited for achievement and service by the Ephraim Rotary, May 20.
