Show 2 SPRINGVILLE HERALD Thursday, March 17, 2005 Editorial How many phone books do we need? It happened again Friday. I opened my front door to find yet another phone book on my doorstep. It is hard to understand why the "phone book fairy" thinks that we need more than one phone book, but they keep arriving-one version after another. when you need them, a phone book is wonderful thing. But when I need one I want one that is efficient and requires re-quires the least amount of time to look up the number I am seeking. . And that is where the problem arises. Most of the phone books I receive on my doorstop go right to the garbage can. I will not keep the phone books that have the listings all lumped together instead of by cities. It is that simple, and I have heard this from many other people, I don't make many calls to Provo and even less to Lehi or Santaquin, etc. The majority of my calls calls go to Springville and Mapleton, and I do not wish to look through the listing of all the Petersons in Utah County in order to find one in Springville. , I find it hard to understand why the phone book companies com-panies have mostly gone to the all county listings. It must be easier for them to produce. ; It also seems like a huge waste of paper and whatever else to publish more than one phone book. - I appreciate lots of the other information the phone book people publish in addition to the phone numbers, Jike the zip codes. But why can't they go back to the old way and list people's numbers by the city they live in? Sometimes the old way of doing things is the best way!

As we age, we generally will require less sleep. So how can we tell if we are getting get-ting the amount of sleep that we need? Try to assess how you feel when waking in the morning. Do you feel refreshed re-freshed and energized or do you feel like your dragging your feet? Talk to your doctor doc-tor if you think that you have some problem that is not letting let-ting you get the sleep that you need. Does it matter when you sleep? Yes it does. It is also important to try to consistently consis-tently go to bed around the same time each night. The timing of sleep is important, in part, because of the cycles that several of our hormones are on. For example, Cortisol is generally secreted in a cyclic fashion, with higher levels in the morning and then gradually gradu-ally tapering down to its lowest low-est level at night. A lower level of Cortisol at night will assist in helping one sleep. When we constantly change the time we sleep, or sleep during the daytime, our internal clocks become less synchronized with our sleep schedule. This can make us feel tired and run down and unable to sleep in the night. If there are any questions concerning this or other arti chief.

Doing so will get your temporary business license revoked on the spot with the newest tweak to Mapleton's city ordinance on solicitation. solicita-tion. In the midst of a statewide legal battle between salesmen sales-men and Utah cities because of safety and commercial speech rights, the city has incorporated an "opt-out" list for residents who don't want solicitors coming there way. Officials said they believe the list, and an encouragement encourage-ment to those who don't want salesman to post "no solicitations" signs on their door or property, will strike a balance that will allow solicitors so-licitors to do their job while keeping uninterested residents resi-dents happy. "Basically it's a system adopted in some other cities for residents that don't want to be bothered by solicitors," said City Administrator Bob Bradshaw. "We'll pass that list over to salesman, like a 'no call' list."

The Springville Youthnet organization would like to see this community become more familiar with the "40 Developmental Assets" as described by the Search Institute In-stitute in their book: "What Kids Need to Succeed" and on their website "search-institute.org." Young people who possess more assets are much less likely to get involved in problem behaviors. Each month one asset is being emphasized, with suggestions of how to implement this asset and help children to succeed. " Youthnet encourages all parents of the SpringvilleMapleton area to be aware of the 40 developmental devel-opmental assets and visit the website. The asset they are emphasizing for March is asset number 12: "Schools set clear rules and consequences for student behavior." Things that can be done in the community are: Support school leaders in developing, communicating communicat-ing and enforcing school boundaries. As much as possible, make sure that school boundaries bound-aries are consistent from school to school. Talk publicly about school boundaries. Let the community com-munity know about them so they can support and reinforce rein-force them. P ost flyers, send mailings andor present the boundaries bound-aries at an open house. Be sure that coaches and other adult leaders (of teams, clubs, youth organizations, extracurricular acJ tivities, atter-schooi programs, etc.) are mrormed of school boundaries. Ask for their support. cense for $50 and completes a limited background check will be provided with the list of addresses and names. So far the opt-out list in Mapleton is still small, with only about 20 households joining on, according to Bradshaw. Mapleton's informal arrangement may be closely monitored by solicitors, seeing see-ing how several Utah cities, including Orem, American Fork and Pleasant Grove,, are currently engulfed in litigation lit-igation concerning door-to-door sales. The lawsuits, filed on behalf be-half of cleaning company Kirby, are aimed at repealing repeal-ing specific city ordinances that sometimes require background checks, licensing licens-ing fees and fingerprinting, on the grounds that they violate vi-olate free speech. Though Mapleton isn't listed list-ed in any of those lawsuits, attorney Craig L. Taylor, who is representing plaintiffs plain-tiffs that are suing Orem, Pleasant Grove and 23 other cities over solicitation restrictions, re-strictions, said the opt-out list raises questions about First Amendment rights.

"But it's got to be workable for the people exercising ex-ercising their First Amendment Amend-ment rights." Taylor said depending on how Mapleton organizes those lists, it could be a hindrance hin-drance to salesman and their rights especially if they have to go-over the list every time they start a new street. He believes there is a better bet-ter way for residents to opt out. -.-' " r ;? "The simplest way is to put a no solicitation sign on their door," he added. That way they can accomplish their government objectives through a less restrictive means." City officials said they recently re-cently amended their ordinance ordi-nance regarding door-to-door sales to be less cumbersome cumber-some for both the city and the companies doing the sales, and they hope the opt-out opt-out list aids that effort.
