Q. fMt Santa Claus is having quite a time of it this year in Oreni. He is kept pretty busy making appearances ap-pearances in stores, at parties, and on the streets, but with the total absence of snow to date he has had to keep his sleigh in the garage and use his jeep. There's no doubt that the jeep gets him where he is going, but the small fry surety wish it would snow so they could see him dashing through it in the old-fashioned way, calling "On Dasher! On Praneer! Qti Donner . and Blitzen!' Model Horn Although tw months Behind schedule, the Ore m-Geneva Times Model Home ?s finally nearing completion.

Rumor has it that Safewayi and Penneys are scouting for business locations in Orem. At least one prominent property owner has been approached regarding re-garding the possible sale of building sites. Personally, we're all in favor of rolling out the welcome mat to such concerns. Business begets business, they say. It looks like the auctioneers have changed their minds. The would-be operators of the Orem Auction Center next to the telephone tele-phone building, have shown no signs of opening, although they have built auction stalls the length of the building. The dream of some brothers who work together in Orem is soon to be realized- The Rohbock brothers are putting the finish ing touches on what appears to be one of the largest and finest flower shops in Utah. Located at lUth South and State Street, the new building has floor to ceiling plate glass front, and a colorful neon sign on top with an illuminated clock. The new Roh-bock's Roh-bock's Sons Floral building is a decided asset to Orem's business district.
