Show That's Life Doctor jojns eye clinic August 6, 1980 - The Springville Herald - Page Three Put a little spice in your life by R.J.Sturman The other day I heard about a man who hates lima beans but he eats some every week just to prove to himself how tough he is. Now, that doesn't actually have anything' to do with putting fun in your life, I just thought you might like to know about it. Several people have complained to me about not enjoying themselves-this themselves-this year. I don't understand that at all. There's always fun things to do. If you are one of those having a dull summer, here's a new things you can do to "spice" things up a bit: f Curtis Brink man, above right, spoke to the Kiwanis Club members Thursday. Darrel Wilson acted as toastmaster. Mr. Brinkman is well known throughout the state as a man who has been able to overcome many of the disabilities of severely handicapped people. He talked about some of the many problems that face handicapped. He said that discouragement was perhaps the greatest obstacle to overcome and defeat each day. He has received many awards for his accomplishments and is very proud of his three children. Thursday night the club will hear a report from the boys the Kiwanis Club sponsored to the American Legion Boy's State Convention. Jensen seeks seat on state school hoard Harold S. Jensen, Gunnison, Utah, has announced his candidacy for the District 9 seat on the Utah State Board of Education. He feels his experience in education, auditing and taxation will enr.ijle him to help make hard decisions and changes in education. Jensen has taught in elementary schools for six years and accouting in college for 12 years. For the past 10 years, he has been a CPA in South Central Utah. He has also been an accountant in industry and an economic planner for the Commerce Department. The Utah Legislature provided funds for the State Board of Education to hire an internal auditor while Mr. Bumingham was state superintendent. The state auditor informed me that the board hired an administrator without any accounting classes. The first thing Jensen would do on the board would be to hire a qualified accountant to be an internal auditor to protect our tax dollars. He would like to consolidate the 40 school districts now into seven larger districts. He would include Utah, Juab and Wasatch counties in one district and Sanpete, Sevier, Wayne, Piute, Garfield and Kane in one of the other seven districts. Otherwise; Orem, Sandy and Bountiful should have their own districts because they are larger than Logan and Murray. Less administration could release more funds for supplies, books, teachers' Stove Clearance Sale Save 10 on all Consolidated Dutchwest stoves, receive a free Corning Catalytic rVtmkucfrnv rtliic tLlZ ftOV I of free accessories!

He believes the next tax increase should be at the expense of retired, school administrators or superintendents, judges, college presidents and state employees who do not pay state income taxes on their retirement. Utah is also a tax haven for double dippers. It seems strange Utah has the best tax breaks for its retired workers and the most children to educate in the nation. He wants more competition between the private schools and public schools, and suggests using tax credits for contributions to private and public schools. These credits could be used until a voucher system is approved and to help the career ladder program to be funded. Jensen has eight grandchildren in the Utah school system and he wants the best education possible for them and their friends. He attended schools in Redmond, Salina and Payson and graduated from Payson High School. He graduated from the University of Utah in education and received a masters degree of accounting from the BYU. His thesis was an appraisal of the alleged tax advantages allowed farmers by the tax laws. The first streetcar railway in America started its public service in 1832, operating in New York from City Hall to 14th Street. The fare was 12 and a half cents.

Jensen July was cool & wet July weather recorded at the BYU-Provo Weather Station was more than two degrees cooler than normal and the fourth wettest during the past 100 years of record keeping. Dale Stevens, weather specialist and professor of geography at BYU, said the average high temperature was 91 degrees compared with the normal of 93.4, while the average low temperature was 59.1 compared with normal of 60.2. The highest temperature was 99 degrees on the 14th; the lowest, 48 on the 5th. A total of 2.07 inches of precipitation fell during the month which is 291 percent of the normal .71 inches. The top four wettest Julys on record - three of which have come in the past four years - include 1984 with 2.8 inches, 1896 with 2.43 inches, 1983 with 2.11 and 1986 with 2.07. "July is usually our warmest and driest month," Stevens said, "and we normally have several days of 100 degrees or higher. Provo has not recorded 100 degrees since June 28 which was the only time thus far this summer that the thermometer has reached triple digits." With more than two inches of rain in July, this put the water year precipitation since Oct. 1 at 24.94 inches, which is 168 percent of the normal 14.84 inches. Calendar year figues show 16.58 inches of precipitation, which is 157 percent of the normal 10.57 inches. Stevens said July had three periods of rain spells which seemed to keep the temperatures down: 4th to the 7th, 15th to the 18th and 22nd to the 26th. A total of 9.6 inches of water evaporated during July, helping to recede the lake. Winds exceeded 35 miles per hour during eight days of July with the highest on the 4th at 61 miles per hour. July had 12 clear days, 15 partly cloudy days, four cloudy days, eight days with thunderstorms and one day with hail. The first national census, begun in 1790, counted 3,929,214 persons in the United States. The counting took 18 months. Only about three percent of the earth's water is fresh. About three fourths of the fresh water is frozen in glaciers and icecaps. Frank A. Siddoway, O.D. has recently associated with Dr. Richard A. Hatch and Dr. Traer G.
