Quarterly Conclave MADE ON COUNTY FUNDS (Continued From Page One) make it a good place to live in. During the more than thirty years following you fought intermittent floods and devastating periods of drought. Undismayed however you pioneered on through the years ever mindful of the adage The world gives lashes to its pioneers until the goal is reached, then deafening cheers." Government Helps You early recognized the necesreliable wasity for an ter supply. The source for such a supply was found in the regions above Moon Lake, but to conserve these waters for judicious use the work entailed an outlay apparently far beyond your financial means. In 1933 however we witnessed the dawn of a New Era. An altruistic Government came to your rescue with an allotment from public funds in the form of a $1,500,000 loan for use in constructing the Moon Lake dam and reservoir. So today the project is an accomplished fact with approximately $300,000 to spare. Furthermore, the reservoir as constructed has Mrs. Fred Gentry was guest ot an available storage capacity of honor at a dinner Tuesday evenas 35,000 acre-feapproximately ing at the Plaza hotel, given by against 30,000 acre-feoriginmembers of the Business and Professional Womens club, of ally contemplated.

I congratulate you Mr. President, your Board of Directors and of the Moon Lake Stockholders Water Users Association on your accmplishment. The completed structure stands as a monument to your progressiveness and industry. It was conceived by you, financed by you and built by you. I speak advisedly when I say built by you and your people because the records show that approximately 90 per cent of the 750,000 man-houemployed on the work represents labor performed by residents of Duchesne County and the State of Utah. The total outlay on account of salaries and wages, exclusive of the salaries of a few supervisory and clerical employees, was $600,-49It may be assumed that this money largely flowed into channels serving to activate the business of your community. Enjoyed Liing Here I want to take advantage of this opportunity to express to the good people of the Uintah Basin my own and my appeciation of the courtesy and consideration shown us at all times. I have thoroughly enjoyed the three years stay in your midst and know I could be very happy with Duchesne county as my permanent abode. I sincerely hope that my official actions when dealing with the contractand local inors, the supply-me- n habitants I havent appeared as arbitrary or unbending. Unfortunately, as contracting officer my position was analogous to one defined by the colored parson who preached a sermon on the punishment to be meted out to sinners, predicting unrepenting for them eternal torment in a pit and molten lava, of brimstone where there would be wailing and weeping and the gnashing ol teeth. When he had concluded, a woman member of the congregaBrother parson, tion incqulred how come the Good Lord is gwine to do all dem things to us when the Bible say God is just and The parson replied, merciful? "Sister, theres a lot o' things the Good Lord wouldn't do in his private capacity that he has to do I am in his official capacity. going to ask you to be equally charitable in judging my official acts. And now in taking my official leave I wish for all of you a truly abundant life with the best of everything worth while." rs 4. k- tig Prizes For Bronco Riding - Steer Riding & Calf Roping w 11 m Big Dance Deltas Famous Paris: Childrens Dance In The Afternoon !?.watsTrfBrtn!tr H PLENTY OF SHADE WelCOM Lunch Stands Fishing: - 2 PICNIC GROUNDS ti Average Person's htrps The average person walks steps or 7j miles a day.
