Elvis B Terry has been casting bread upon the waters wa-ters ever since making his home in Orem 15 years ago. All during that period he has enriched the Orem area through his music singing, directing, teaching, producing. pro-ducing. Perhaps his greatest contributions to Orem have come in his production each year of the Laster Morning Cantata and the Christmas time production of "The Messiah." These two fine musicals are now a tradition in our community and have lifted the lives of thIt would be imupossible to count the number of times Elvis has sung at church services, funerals and civic club programs. His splendid voice has been cheerfully available where needed, and his charminfc daughter has leen his gracious accompanist. His popularity among, his students at Lincoln high school and the type of musical productions which come from his department, attest the skill which he has attained at-tained in developing musical talents and a love for music mus-ic in others. The Mendelssohn Chorus which Elvis directs is a county-wide organization, but it has thrilled this community com-munity over and over again, and has been the basis for securing contributions for dozens of worthwhile Orem projects. Now, unexpectedly and unsolicited, Elvis and his wife have been invited to enjoy a trip to New York via air, to appear in a national radio program, and to fce the guests of General Mills on a sight-seeing trip of the city. The trip comes, basically, as an expression of appreciation app-reciation to the Terrys for the service they have rendered ren-dered and for the good they have done. It's a story which renews our faith in the promise: "cast thy bread upon the waters ... for thou shalt find it after many days." GOLDEN SILENCE FOR A NICKEL It was inevitable. It had to come. In Houston Texas, there is a restaurant with a juke box, the musical records rec-ords of which can be played free. There is also a blank record, which produces three minutes of silence. It costs ii ru&el to play that one. Tha proprietor isn't losing money the blank record is gett.ag a terrific play. Customers fall over each other to pay their nickels for silence. This finally gives the maft with tender ears some chance to compete with the juke box crowd in public places. Up to now the man who liked his meals in peace and quiet has had them shattered by the people who seem to ned jive tempo for proper mastication. Now the chaver of silence can linger over his steak in serenity by buying peace with 5c. It is wonderful to have this ri&ht again the right to be quiet and not to I.sten. May the silent platters be put in every juke box. Milwaukee Journal Mr. and Mrs. Kendell Jol-ley Jol-ley and Mrs. Ruth Jolley were in Salt Lake on business Tuesday.

In a world of confusion and make believe it is rather wonderful to find a counle who have been married j fifty years and who swear they 1 have not once broken their marriage vows. That is as it should be Today many of our younger folks hold marriage and its meaning lightly .... it is about time we returned to the good old fashioned philos ophy that marriage is sacred, God eiven and instigated in heaven. Hell . There is no hell like that of being disillusioned ... an un faithful wife can completely wreck a man's morale . . An un faithful husband crucifies the soul of the most gallant wife- Is it worth it? The slipping around, the unfaithfulness that is part of our sophisticated world of today. Hearts are broken and hearts do not mend the soul scars deeply, and heart broken people become confused. con-fused. Children look upon broken brok-en homes with awe in their young hearts and wonder how long their Mama and Daddy will be together. Love Love is eternal time does not erase the sacred emotion, love that should last as long as life and beyond the grave. Ag has nothing to do with love, for the mind and heart are ever young. Marriage and having that cherished family seals, blends and mellows love. The measure of great heights, depths and breadths is the measure of heights, breadths and depths of love. Love is the most sacred of all emotional achievements. We Reap What We Sow Because people are taking love and marriage vows lightly and divorce is a thing that as yet psychiatrists cannot cope with we have a mentally ill world to reconstruct. The best time to weed out this condition is in the cradle, when a child's character is not yet formed. But if the child sees the parents playing around he will naturally natural-ly grow up with a shoddy set of values, and in the years to come he will know what it is like to have a scarred soul and a broken brok-en heart .... and a broken heart does not mend but becomes be-comes emotionally crippled.
