Jacobsen, retiring mechanical arts instructor of the Spring-ville high school, was honored by teaching associates at a canyon outing on Thursday of last week. Highlighting the event was the presentation being made by Principal C. Lynn Hanks of the Junior high school, who commented among things on the fine service Mr. Jacobsen has rendered the past year in equipping and establishing the mechanical arts department in the new Junior high school. Mr. Jacobsen has taught in the Springville high schools the past thirty years. Before that time, he taught in Morgan five years and four years at the Delta high school in the mech-anical arts department. During service in the First World War, he was stationed at the USU, Logan where he was assigned to teach mechan-ics and he also served as a teacher at the University of Arizona at Tucson. For six summers, he was state school instructor on farm mechanics being assigned to the USU at Logan for three summers and three summers in Springville. During the past year, he has directed the purchasing of new material and supervised instal-lation of mechanical arts equipment at the Junior high school where he has had 521 students in the various classes. Evidence of the fine instruc-tion which Springville high school boys have received through the years from Mr. Ja-cobsen, are the lovely pieces of furniture which grace the homes of practically every stu-dent which he has taught and these students number many hundreds. Concerning his plans for the future, Mrs. Jacobsen says he doesn't plan to quit work, but hopes to continue in a more leisurely manner, doing what he wants to do at the time he chooses. Those who know him Well predict his time will be well spent doing something of value in his chosen field of mechanical arts.

W.' is the man they have to beat. "For 35 years, W. W. Clyde has built highways in Utah and neighboring states. He battled his first job through a rugged section of Nevada near Poquop Summit. And there's many a mile of highway, since then, which he's personally directed. "He is president of Boy church, community and univer-sity affairs, W. W. Clyde has given unselfishly of himself to his friends and neighbors in Utah. Practically any day in the year he may be seen at-tending an equipment demon-stration, visiting one of his far-flun- g construction jobs, at-tending church, counseling young people, or chairmaning a highway engineering-constructio- n conclave at the Uni-versity of Utah. A graduate of University of Utah Engineering School in 1913, he is now chairman of the U. of U. Alum-ni Development Committee. "An outstanding highway contractor, W. W. directs a business which reflects credit on the entire construction in-dustry. "Current jobs in progress by the Clyde firm include ten miles of reconstruction and plant-mi- x asphalt surfacing of U.

Memorial Holiday Set in Springville I omorrow Hundreds of former residents and townspeople will gather at the cemeteries tomorrow to commemorate annual Memorial Day and to pay tribute to their departed loved ones. It has be-come one of the biggest days of the year for family reunions and of getting together with family and friends from out of town. For the first time in thirty years, the Springville high school band will not take part in the Memorial Service. The Veterans Council has therefor decided to conduct a brief ser-vice consisting of posting the colors and firing a salute at 7 a.m. All are asked to be at Memorial Hall at 6 a.m. for a practice. The group will leave the hall at 7 a.m., for the City Cemetery and will later go to the Ever-green. The Springville high school band is unable to take part be-cause so many students leave to work the day after school is out. The Junior high school band cannot participate be-cause they have no uniforms and the leader is leaving town for the day, members of the Veteran's Council were told. UIH I'. I Stores Closed The city pays the band $50 for their appearance at the Ce-meteries on Memorial Day and city officials, members of the veterans groups and other townspeople have expressed disappointment and concern in the fact that these young peo-ple cannot assist in paying tri-bute to departed war heroes on Memorial Day. i Retail stores, the post office, the bank and most other places of business will be closed for the day to give everyone an opportunity to visit the ceme-teries. Taking advantage of the holiday also the Jaycees are sponsoring horse races in Springville and there are other special events planned for the day throughout the county. ed Cross Course fed Public Nailng June 6 tir!lard curse for Ameri- - ing of!
