In ever increasing numbers, families in search of relaxa-tion and fun for their leisure hours, engage in activities as fast as water-skiin- g or as sed-entary as sun-bathi- in the back yard. Perhaps it's the many labor-savin- g devices in the home, faster transportation, shorter working hours and a wider field of fun-tim- e activities and accessories that beckon sum-mer's pleasure seekers. Or, perhaps it is mounting congestion on the highways. pete counties; additional work on the Indian Peaks area in Beaver County, planting of browse plants on Department properties in Em-ery and Duchesne counties to serve as a source of seed for continued browse restoration work on overused rangelands; fencing of rehabilitated range-land- s in Wasatch County, and construction of a boat house and storage facility on Utah Lake in Utah County.

COMMENT BY KEN METCALF Mother's Day There are some who object to the "commercialization" of na-tional holidays feeling the mean-ing of the MffKfrfMw?wftftnffffjx(m day is lost in - v., t the "special ff ; sales" and an j - t urging to buy f gifts. You'll If hear this said about Moth- - I " , er's Day. 1 j It is true that stores I 4 for Mother's I ' '$ff f Day . . . that hold specials vnnnntifiirr you'll read lots of ads urging you to buy candy, flowers, or other gifts . . . and cynics sug-gest that the whole excuse for this special day is just to sell merchandise. The funny thing is, however, that promoters have tried to create special days of all kinds, with just this "commercialization" in mind. Most of these days fade like autumn leaves. Days don't last or "catch on," if they have only a cynical purpose. They last only if they have, underneath all the rest, a wide appeal. Mother's Day has grown in popularity as a special day be-cause it touches a deeply respon-sive chord in all of us . . . be-cause the gifts we give have meaning.
