Show Page 3 from CHAT Capitol Area In People on low incomes need to know how and where to receive help when needed. We have many organizations in Salt Lake wanting to help those in need. However, they can't help unless people know enough to ask them. As editor, would look for them, investigate them and print an article on one organization each week. This would tell what kind of help they can give and what they have done and how to receive their services. After the series was completed, would rerun it for those who have forgotten or missed it the first time. would also keep searching for new help for those who need it. If the budget would allow, would have a column similiar to only confined to problems such as how to get legal aid, or what to do if the landlord refuses to repair the leaky toilet or peeling walls, or if you receive an eviction notice and can't find a place to move. In other words, where do we get help when we need it and how do we get it? I would also include a column on I I recipes) and another on emotional problems. It's very easy to become discouraged and give up and very easy for others to judge. need hope for We with editorial offices located at 383 East 1700 South, Salt Lake City, Utah 84115.

Most Square, the world headquarters of the Mormon Church, and Brigham Young's unique homes, the Lion House and the Beehive House . Thousands of tourists pass possible through a grant from the State Capitol through the building each year to see and hear about the marble staircases, the Gold Room, and the majestic painted dome. One block away they flock to visit the colorful heritage collection in the Pioneer Memorial Museum, a modern replica of the old Salt Lake Theatre. But are you aware that there are many other historical homes and landmarks in this area - some just about to become famous; some perhaps in your own immediate neighborhood? One example is the home on the corner of Quince and Apricot Streets. It was built by John Platt, a pioneer who emigrated with his wife Emily from Lancastershire, England, in 1854. They had a large family; one son, John Parley, became a brick and stone mason and later built the house just to the north. The original Platt home is still intact. One admires the charming simplicity of this Department of Housing and poorer man's Ed .

Percy Clark Family Expresses Gratitude We appreciate this opportunity to express and explain our gratitude to the hundreds of wonderful people who have offered their sympathy, understanding and kindness in so many ways following Percy's sudden and violent death. We know that proper expressions of sympathy are very difficult because there are no words to express that kind of empathy. For us to attempt to express our gratitude to everyone is even more difficult because there are so many people who did so many wonderful things. In truth, it is not possible to respond to each individual. There are just too many of you. Expressions of sympathy in one form or another have been received from many states; from' U. S. Attorney General Richard G. Kleindienst; from Governor Calvin L. Rampton; from the Utah Legislature; from Mayor Jake Gam and the Salt Lake City Commissioners, from private business; and from literally hundreds of ordinary, honest, concerned citizens. How can anyone properly and adequately express their gratitude for sympathy expressions of that magnitude? We cannot! We can only hope that each and every one of you will realize and understand the overwhelming gratitude in our hearts and accept this method of expressing it.
