Show The enclosed article was sent to us ty Mr. Richard Fry, who tales that he was first employed at Devil's Slide in the ring of 1904. This fact should make him eligible as a Charter Member of the organization. Ve submit it as we received Ted Wright, Ren84033. Utah der, kl the school year and we expect Just that." My answer was"Mrs, Dickson if I can find a replacement as good I am or maybe better and if I happen' to be elected will you be willing to u release me?" She said, "Well, we will see." xine I commensed working at Devil's Slide as soon as the Droid came put of the ground in the spring of 1904, working as a common laborer, wages $3 .00 for 10 hour day, digglngfounda-tioo- s, mixing morter and "car- rying the hod". From this meager wage I paid $1.50 each day for board. Several of my friends and I bought a tent, gathered some straw, built some bunk beds from scrap lumber. We were able to pick up from some of the buildings belonging to the Beesley family which stood igon the land the Cement Company had bought. I worked there until the 1st of September, in order to attend school. 1 attended the US Busi- ness College until the next spring. I went back to the Cement Plant the middle of June, working there until time to go back to school in the fall. During that summer construction went on at a rapid pace. It fas an Inspiration to watch these high steel buildings go up, almost like magic. I WORKED there for the next two summers attending school in the winter. The last three years of my schooling was spent at Logan, where 1 attended and graduated from the Brigham Young College in June of 1910. I came home on crutches asa result of an accident in the track-me- et on the campus, (hi - my way home way Depot, I in the Ogden Railmet an old school friend who had taught a mixed one room school in the central pah of the State. He had promised the good people of that community he would either come back and teach or find a responsible replacement to take his place. I got in touch with the board of Trustees of this community and received a contract, which I neither signed nor returned. I did however write tham a litter explaining why I could not come, 1 knew I could never hold a Job at the Cement plant (with icast on one legend one Crutch) so that summer 1 worked at the Morgan Canning Factory. In the latter part of the sum- - mer a lovely lady, Mrs. Annie S. Dickson (who had been elected County Superintendent of schools) called on me. She said, "Mr. Fry, 1 cannot see the sense of you leaving the County, as we are having such a hard time finding teachers here at home. She further said, "we are having a hard time to find a teacher for the school at Devil's Slide and I am sure I will be able to place you there if you will accept that position, you will be the principal." "The Cement Company has promised to make a two room set-u- p instead of having all the pupils from first to eighth grade in one room under one teacher as had been done She also told me that the building which had not been completed would be finished Just as fast as it was possible for them to do so, and that a better heating system would be installed. The company ' did Just this In fact they over did it, we were the windows almost cooked-- all which we were able to raise had to be kept open almost all here-to-fo- re. day. SCHOOL STARTED the first Monday in September. In the room where I taught there were seventeen pupils, all boys. In the other room about the same number, mostly girls with three small boys. This room was presided over by a very lovely teacher by the name of Mrs. Cockren. Everything seemed to be going along quite smoothly until one Friday morning in October, Just before daylight, twenty eight cars of a freight train and some of the were cars were over-turnquite close to the front door of the school house. ' It was hard to hold the attention of our students but we promised them we would dismiss school early if they would sit still, pay attention and get their work done. We did this so all of us could watch the large wrecking crews get the cars back on the track. Both teachers had to stand to keep the ed ed children at a safe distance and out of danger. Om 0?UcU PACE SERVICE Ralph and Elds THE NEXT MONDAY morning everything was cleared up and we went on with our school work as usual. My wages were $75 a month paid by the Cement Company. The lady teachers wage was the same, paid by the Morgan Co. School Board. In addition to this. I taught ten Japanese people who worked at the Cement Plant and in the Hotel. Four nights a week they paid me one dollar per evening. We held school in the Hotel dining room after supper and everything was cleaned up. At this point during my teaching career everything was going along smoothly, until something happened tochange everything. Some of my political friends had placed my name in nomination for the office of County Clerk of Morgan County. When Mrs. Dickson got to hear of this she said "Now remember we have you under contract to teach this school for I WAS SUCCESSFUL in the election and I succeeded infinding a very capable young man by the name of Lloyd Garrison who had Just graduated mid-ye- ar from the Ogden, High School. I was able to do this by working through a music teacher who taught music in the schools of Morgan County. . As a footnote, which may be added at this time . . . The school at Croydon was presided over by a lovely little lady by the name of Crystal Smith and before the school year was over I had the honor as of Clerk, issuing a marriage license to Morgan County Mr. Lloyd Garrison of Devils Slide andCrystalSmlth of Croydon.-Richard T.
