If these are conducted before school starts, it may prevent high absentee records for the students during the year. Dr. Henry Bekker, doctor of denistry, stated that it is important to have regular taken of the teeth. Nonvisual disturbances may be detected at an early date, therefore preventing expensive calls and x-ra- ys treatments later on. Dr. Bernard J.

County Farm Bureau Sponsors Baby Contest The Murray Fairgrounds was the setting for the Farm Bureau Baby Contest. Ninety-nin- e babies from all over Salt Lake county were entered. Little Sheri Lynn Bridges, 13 months, won the baby girl contest. She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. ElRay Bridges of Riverton, Utah. Matthew Whiting, son of Mr. and Mrs. Gene Whiting of Sandy won the boys division. He was 7 months old. Different businesses from the surrounding areas gave gifts to the winners. Dirty, Smelly Water; But Safe to Drink Most of us in the county have noticed when we use water that it is discolored and dirty. These conditions although unpleasant do not render the water unsafe for use. According to the manager of the Salt Lake County Water Conservancy District, heavy demand and low reservoirs are to blame for the dirty culinary water condition. Usually in the Fall of the year when reservoirs get low the water picks up sediment which causes coloration and often gives it an odor. This is true of the water supply this year. The Salt Lake Aqueduct supplies a large portion of the water from the Deer Creek Reservoir to the Conservancy District. The Conservancy District is using as much well water as possible in an effort to use as little sediment bearing reservoir water as possible. Efforts are being made now to place an well in 1200 East and 9400 South back into operation after a k shutdown. 750 gallons of clear well water per minute will be taken into the Conservancy District system which will partially clear-u- p the dirty water. MeanDiswhile the Metropolitan-Watetrict engineers say that the Deer Creek water is treated enough to make it safe. 16-in- ch six-wee- r Dr. Henry Bekker thoroughly checks the teeth of Cliff Parmelee in a exam with the assistance of nurse Molly Johnson. pre-scho- ol Granite School District Schedules This weekend will be a strain-uou- s one for mothers who are getting one or more children ready for another school year, because Monday morning, starting at 8:30 a.m. the schools in the Granite District will open their doors and school bells will be ringing again.
