If he doesnt give a wrap, she doesnt give a dun. At the risk of being run out of town, Id like to make a suggestion to go along with Kanabs coming centennial celebration. I would like to propose that Kanab men grow beards for the Centennial, and also to go along with the Powell Centennial this year. The facial finery would help carry us back to a century ago when men were men and had the whiskers to prove it. Whats that, you say? We would become like a community of Hippies? Not so! Also we could include as part of he dress, colored vests with western ties. Who ever heard of a Hippie being so conventional? And besides, you can keep your hair cut, and still keep the tonsorial artists (thats barbers to you young whippersnappers) in business. How about it, men. Lets strike a blow for history.

There are some politicians who shake your hand before an election and your confidence after. The talks all about the raise in taxes. Congress seems certain to raise their own salary, and the Presidents has been doubled. Legislators keep saying, If you want taxes lowered, you must accept a cutback in services. I guess that is right. I want fewer taxes, but Id rather see a cutback in such things as the following areas, which is carrying government giving a little too far: Take, for instance, the college in California producing a comic book costing $8,789. No kidding! The National Foundation of the Arts and :: r Sciences awarded the grant and firmly defended their action. They said the researching of comic strips was in the public interest. How about a $159,000 grant that went to the University of Florida to teach mothers how to play with their babies. , To LeRoi Jones an the Black Arts Theatre went $115,000 for productions such as the one titled, The Toilet,; and half a million dollars were found "not doing anything in the Agency for International Development, so when some chap from Lebanon asked for the grant, AID dished it out for a school which didnt even cxict! Hows that for economy? Well, Im running out of space, so better knotfk it off. This list could go on indefinitely. However, I just came came up with an idea: I think Ill requisition a $100,000 grant to make a study entitled: Ways and means for the publisher of a small weekly newspaper to feed a family of eight, in a depressed area, where the government is taking money out of the area, so they can put money back into the area.

(25th in a Series) Mrs. Lorraine Goldy is having a lively and interesting session with her 9th grade World Geography class.

The class is designed to cover all phases of our history; the evolution of our form of government; the dynamic growth of our economy, the scientific and technological revolutions; changing ways of living, foreign policy, relations with other nations; and, of course, our countrys dedication to freedom, justice and equality. Her 8th grade Civics and History class follows this same pattern in a more simplified form with emphasis on the Declaration of Independence, Bill of Rights, the Constitution and our representative form of Government provided at the national, state, and local levels.
