Utah's first big national celebration cele-bration was held in 1909 in Salt Lake, with the hosting of the Grand Army of the Republic Veterans (Civil War) annual reunion, and with the current Olympics being hosted by Salt Lake City and Utah in general, there are so many parallels paral-lels to these two great events. Civil War veterans, thousands of Yankees and a smattering of Confederates, swarmed into Salt Lake City for the big gathering, which required great and elaborate plans to be made regarding the hosting host-ing of this important event. Issues such as security, entertainment, housing, food, services, transportation, transpor-tation, meeting places and decorations decora-tions were of greatest importance to make the reunion of a notable one, keeping in mind that there were only 65,000 people in Salt Lake at that time. .

One hundred runners, people of all abilities, both young and old, communities and how should alcoholic alco-holic drinks be handled were all important questions that needed to be addressed and resolved.

Parshall is the featured speaker tonight, and she will present a beautifully illustrated program with slides and information regarding regard-ing this great event.

The Springville Rotary Club is wim to m wmw Disposal of used oil Used oil from your cars, trucks, tractors, motorcycles and other engines en-gines contains heavy metals, arsenic ar-senic and other chemicals that are harmful to humans, animals and plants. When used oil is spilled on the ground, it contaminates soil -and water. Plants absorb the chemicals, chemi-cals, and the chemicals make their way into the food chain: Used oil also seeps through soil to pollute groundwater, and runs off to pollute lakes and streams. One misplaced gallon of used oil can affect the taste and quality of up to one million gallons of water. wa-ter. Water pollution can ruin fisheries fish-eries and make swimming unsafe. Because of these problems, it is illegal to dispose or used oil by dumping it on the ground or in water wa-ter or to place it in your trash. Recycling used oil is an important im-portant way to help prevent soil and water pollution. Preventing water pollution is especially important impor-tant in Utah with our dry climate and low water reserves. The Department De-partment of Environmental Quality Qual-ity works with private businesses to establish locations where the public can deposit used oil for free. These businesses provide a valuable valu-able community service for "do-it-yourselfers" (people who change their own oil), farmers and the environment. There are over 250 used oil collection col-lection centers in Utah, and 25 of these are in Utah County. In Springville, Checker Auto at 815 N. Main will accept up to five gallons gal-lons of used oil per visit for free from "do-it-yourselfers."

Here are some tips for recycling used oil: Drain oil from the engine. Then pour it into a sealable container con-tainer so you can take it to a collection col-lection center. Plastic oil drain pans work well (available at most auto parts stores for $10 or less). Empty plastic milk bottles work well, too. They have screw-on lids, can be rinsed before use and don't cost anything. Farmers often use 55-gallon 55-gallon drums because they generate gener-ate more oil than most households. Make certain the drum wasn't used for hazardous chemicals because these can contaminate the used oil. - Do not mix antifreeze, gasoline gaso-line or any other products or chemicals with used oil. ) n o Time is running out to get your tiketo to this year's prime rib dinner on Fri. and Sat., Mar. 1 & 2, hosted by the SHS choral program.

"This concert is quite different from what we usually do," says Martha Sargent of Springville, director direc-tor of this select chamber choir. "Our specialty is early sacred music, with a major piece of baroque choral music mu-sic at the center of each performance. For the Olympics, we needed a focus on something related to the games or their celebration in Utah, so we have planned a concert of music written by American, Western and Utah awn-posers awn-posers and arrangers." . Most of the music is sacred in nature, but in a wide variety of styles, mostly written by recent and living composers, although some of the music comes from the early days of our country. The highlight of this concert will be the world premiere performance of a new piece by Springville native, na-tive, Dr. David H. Sargent. Sargent is a professor of composition and music theory at Brigham Young University, where he has taught since 1976. His new work is a setting of verses from Psalm 104, entitled "Bless the Lord."
