A Column of Comment Wise and Otherwise Rambling around Sharon and reading what has been written about local situations, X am wondering whether other sections of the community are being overlooked in the fanfare and excite-mecaused by Orems fast moving town administration and by the pardonable enthusiasm of its Chamber of Commerce and Bifsiness Mens Organization. With this in mina i decided to "do" a column occasionally devoted to other sections of the Sharon community. So today! with this explanation, this space will be devoted largely to Pleasant View. nt " TODAYS TOAST Modest to the extent that they .will likely be very much embarrassed by what is said here, Mrs. EaPreal Jones and family of Pleasant View have demonstrated what members of a family, even under severe handicaps, may accomplish by loyal devotion to, and cooperation with, each other. Reft fatherless through the death of their father about five years ago in the very depths of the depression, and with the rumuy home and farm only partly paid for, this family has struggled on, making payments on the farm, sending the children through high school and college as their turns came, and lately maintaining a son and brother, Ferron, in the mission field. Each member has worked (and I mean worked) to help the others, even though someone's schooling had to be delayed a year or two. The family has given its full snare In community donations of both time and means. Church officials inform me that there isnt a more liberal or more consistent family In the community in the payment of Church tithes and offerings. And from the mother down, it has all been done with a cheerfulness and optimism that glad- ens the heart - OREM HUGE CLEAH-U- P SUCCESS PAINT-U- P Celebration of Towns 20th Anniversary chairman, J. for At Stratton and Roy Wil- also on the committee.

Lowe and about 35 other citizens representing all civic organizations, gathered Monday night at the call of Mayor Jolley and discussed plans for authenticating the official record fo the town. Details of their work will be cited later, and the authentic history of the town published. Most of the men present were pioneers of the community, and their personal knowledge of events will be checked with existing records, states the mayor. Celebration Plans Tentative plans for the Home Coming celebration have already been worked out, but a myriad details have yet to be decided. All events, so far as possible, will be staged at the Town Hall, with its su' rounding grounds which are being "parked and beautified as rapidly as possible, in the hopes that all will be in readiness for July 8. Among the plans are the building of a base ball ground, also a soft ball area, tennis courts, rose gardens, with the whole 20 to 30 acres being made into a community center. A morning program will start off with a salute by the Lincoln band at various parts of the Town. By 10 a. m. all will be gathered at the Town ball, where the morning program will be presented by Scera's committee. Parade and noon luncheon at the Seminary rounds are being planned, with afternoon sports, dancing in the evening, and swimming exhibition, races, soft ball tournament, baseball games, athletic stunts, and comeay events of variQUS kinds being worked into the day's program.

Orem never was so thoroughly cleaned up in its history before, he adds. Should any citizen have failed to get his rubbish hauled away, an opportunity yet exists it he will call Roy E.

The new organization, while not a unit of the Sharon Stake Welfare program, will work in dose cooperation vith the Church plan, particularly in providing employment for non-prof- those who will be recommended by the various church organizations. New Fruit Outlet Processing of fruits, the manufacture of spray materials, fruit boxes, baskets and packages, and the finding of a new market for many of the farm products of the district are some of the main purposes of the new organization, as stated in its Articles of Incorporation. It has now under consideration the taking over of the cannnlng plant which was operated by the Sharon Stake Welfare group the last two years. This plant, it is understood, will be either sold outright to the new organization or leased to it for a long period of time . The new organization will take over the operation of the project which has been going for two years under Sharon Stake auspice. Reasons for Organization In the Articles of Incorporation filed last week with County Clerk C. A. Grant and with the Secretary of State, the reasons for organising tne new association, were set out as follows: "Recognizing the necessity of providing gainful employment for members of our community and a larger and more profitable market for our agricultural products; and "Realizing the necessity of manufacturing more of the commodities we need in our own community and of making our present Income purchase more of the things necessary for a high standard of living; and "Having faith that these problems may be largely solved by our united efforts and resources; we adopt these articles of inlme-sulph- ur corporation. Among Its other purposes the organization is to act as the agent for the members of the association in the purchasing of materials needed for fruit and other farms of the district as well as Organization Are Filed Non-Prof- it cofnmodlties required by its members.

"One of the Immediate objects of the association, announced A. Ray Ekins, President, "Is the canning during the present season of some of the finest Elberta and Hale pches produced in this section of the state. It is thought that a new outlet will thus be found for these fine peaches. It is expected also that Bartlett pears will be canned, as well as berries made into jam. Spray Project Continue The spray project, continued President Ekins, will be operated as before. In addition to this spray material, the association has already made for a wholesale arrangement supply of summer oils and for summer spray.
