REA In her book, "Little Gold Pieces," due off the press this week, Mrs. Christen Jensen (Juliaetta Bateman) tells the appealing ap-pealing story of her mother, Ma-rlnda Ma-rlnda Allen Bateman, a Utah pioneer pio-neer who lived through the electric elec-tric period of polygamy and underground un-derground activities in this state. Opening with the romantic picture pic-ture of pretty Marinda and ner parents being ferried across the Jordan river by handsome Samuel Bateman, who decides upon first sight that Marinda shall become his wife, the book weaves to powerful pow-erful climaxes of drama, tragedy and beauty. Of her book, Mrs. Jensen writes, "This is in no sense a history his-tory of the Mormon church, nor of any of its great movements. 1 am interested in historical event only inasmuch as occurrences affected af-fected the lives of my parents. My story is not fiction, nor is anv part of it Actionized." Polygamy Comes to the Log Cabin "Little Gold Pieces" is as interesting in-teresting to the male reader as to the women. Bits of beauty such as the description of the wedding party held in the little log cabin and the birth of the baby, with its layette fashioned of "backs and sleeves of discarded shirts," capture the heart of the reader long before the dramatic incidents of the underground are approached. ap-proached. After Samuel Bateman took h'. second wife, life in the little house changed.

CHRISTEN JENSEN just past 18 years of age and Ma rinda was past 32. When Juub (the author) once protested to her mother, saying, "I do not believe in polygamy," her mother answered an-swered softly, "Do not say you do not believe it. say you do not understand it. The principle is right, the failures are due to hu man weaknesses." On the same subject, Mrs. Jensen Jen-sen writes, "Is it posible not to believe in something, and. yet oe fair to those who do believe in it, and live it decently I think it is I trust it is." Baby Born In Exile Mrs. Jensen writes with an au- yeari before Utah became a state, when the federal government attempted at-tempted to subdue the activities of the Mormons. Since Utah was not a state, marriage laws could not be written except by federal government. Mormon men, who already had wives and children under the polygamy principle which they believed to be of divine di-vine origin, entered the service of the underground rather than submit sub-mit to the heavy prison terms and fines imposed by the federal government. gov-ernment. It was during this phase of Utah's history that Samuel Bateman Bate-man was chief guard and nurse for President John Taylor of the LDS church. He also acted as guard and driver for George Q. Cannon and Joseph F. Smith. Later he served President Woodruff Wood-ruff on the underground. Little Gold Pieces The manuscript is sprinkled with names of leaders of thej early-day church. Authentic his- torical events are highlighted with the personal bits of life brought into the book by Mrs Jensen. The title. '-Little Gold Pieces," comes from the pieces of gold i Marinda Baleman earned while; practicing her profession as a midwife. Accented on the cover of the attractive volume, the title is 1 illustrated by the picture of the little midwife on horseback, with her medicine bag, riding to f distant cottage through a storm. The years were hard through the penitentiary period and Mrs. Jensen writes, "Hard as these years were, each little gold piece her graduation day and on that paper should have been written, "Marinda Allei Bateman." The joy, the sorrow, the beauty, the hardship of pioneer life is all told in truth of expression by Provo's Own Mrs. Christen Jensen Jen-sen who has made her niche here in such organizations as Utah Sorosis, BYU Women. ALR Friendly Circle and Daughters of Utah Pioneers. She organized the Browning societies of Provo and Salt Lake City and is a member of University of Utah Women's club. She has instructed at BYU for 27 years and at U of U for 22 years. Autograph parties are being planned by Mrs. Jensen's daughter, daugh-ter, Mrs. Bertrand Harrison and also by Amelia Buckley.

In a meeting staged in the public pub-lic library, Mr. Callahan explained explain-ed the difference between a pension pen-sion plan and the old age assistance assist-ance program.
