Recent rule changes require that a person must appear at one of our licensing offices at least once every eight years. This will remedy the problems of outdated license pictures and drivers who have not had recent eye exams, as well as phase out old style licenses. This process will include, at a minimum, a visual acuity test and a photo. Written notification will be sent to those who are eligible approximately 90 days before the expiration of their present license. If a person continues to maintain a good driving record, they will most likely be eligible to have this new license renewed through the mail when it expires in four years. It is the responsibility of all drivers to renew their current driver license before the expiration date. If you have moved since your last renewal, or the address is incorrect on your license, you must notify Driver License Division of the new address if you have not already done so. Failure to make this notification violates state law and increases the chance that a renewal-by-mail notice will be undeliverable and the opportunity to take advantage of the program may be lost.

Dudley, touring circus clown, will appear here Thursday Dudley, the National Touring Clown of the 5-Ring Carson & Barnes Circus, will be in Springville, Thursday, July 7 at 11 a.m. to perform for children at the Springville Library Summer Reading Program. Dudley is what is known in circus talk as an "advance clown". He goes ahead of the big show to stir up interest in-terest and attract customers to the performances. Dudley's real name is Bryan Dreyfus. He began his performing career as Bryan the Magician in 1971, appearing on telethons, television magazine programs, private and sponsored performances too numerous to mention, and performances aboard the Valley Queen II Riverboat as a guest star with a vaudeville show. In 1984, he starred in his own television special. Bryan began clowning in 1980 as a sideline to his magic.

His character "Dudley The Magic Clown" is a tramp clown in the tradition of Charlie Chaplin's "Little Tramp" and Emmett Kelly's "Weary Willie". Dudley, with his obvious money woes, is a magician who, despite adversities, manages to get by and also has fun doing it. What about Carson & Barnes? Bryan and Dudley both say "Don't miss it. It is a complete tent circus in the tradition of the big shows that criss-crossed the nation in the '30's. Frankly, it is what circus is all about." Carson & Barnes 5-Ring Circus will be giving shows at 2 and 8 p.m. at the Payson Race Track on July 13, sponsored by the Phi Delta Cultus Club.

Like many selftrained artists of the day, Kirkham tended to borrow many of his motifs and subjects from other artists. The "exotic" flavor of the picture sets it apart from conventional Utah painting. By 1881, however, George M. Ottingers was painting an entire series of "exotic "ex-otic " Aztec and Mayan pictures, by which Kirkham could possibly have been influenced. The painting was owned by Josephine S.
