The Negroes, at leas.t have a reputation for hard work. That's one plan. Plan number two would call for a plebescite in the deep south. We'd find out if they still want to secede and if they do, let them go and put down the Civil War and Abraham Abra-ham Lincoln's dream of a united nation as an other "noble "nob-le experiment" There are enough , people trying to get in our union to,more than oft-set oft-set the south which wants ana has always wanted to get out We are sympathetic all over the world toward people who want to set up their own governments. Why should we balk at it here? The Confeder ate flag is the flag they love, not the stars and stripes. It we can't change their mina and believe me we can't, then we ought to let them have what they want and it seems to me that everyone would benefit and we'd cease to be the laughing stock of peoples everywhere who say we can't govern our own. I'm serious about this. I'm also serious about the free dom bus thing. All the south asks is a white skin. Let's furnish them a few.

Well, let's be honest and say It has irrpnt attractions too. Must have. Almost everybody Is Interested In-terested In making a living. There must be something to it.

V- Fornsworth, Orem's First Cifv Manager, Marks the End of An Era for Community On January 12, 1954. O. V. Farns worth, a retired chain store executive, execu-tive, was named Orem City's first City Manager. ....On May .7, 1962, after serving for more than eight tyears as Orem's chief administrator, Farnsworth submitted sub-mitted his resignation to the Orem City Council. The City Manager, who will be 62 years old in December, told the Council he was acting on the advice of his doctor, and in view of the fact that he had a recent period of serious illness in the hospital. Much has happened in the way of development of Orem City during Farnsworth's tenure in office. He has served under the administrations of five mayors: LeGrand Jarman, Lu zell Robbins, V. Emil Hansen,.. Melbourne Mel-bourne W. Wallace and G. Milton Jameson. Among the important achievements achieve-ments accomplished during this period were : establishment of businesslike bus-inesslike purchasing procedures for the city, construction of the one million mil-lion dollar sewage treatment plant, piping of the Alta Ditch: and adoption adop-tion of a position classification and salary range schedule for city employees. em-ployees. Culinary water problems have been perennial. Zoning changes have been continuing. Financial problems have been critical. As City Manager of one of Utah's fastest growing city, Farnsworth was confronted with a multitude of complexities com-plexities which would have taxed the wisdom of Solomon. He would be the last to claim that everything he has dorte has been perfect. However, anyone who has really known the pian and his work for Orem City will attest to the fact that there has been no harder worker no one more dedicated to the welfare of Orem City. On call at all hours of the day, attending at-tending meetings sometimes until 2 a.m., taking scarcely any vacation time, be has dedicated himself to doing a difficult job well. 0. V. Farnsworth's shoes will be bard to fill. As he leaves the helm of Oram City government, the Orem-Geneva Times wishes him manv vears of cat. isfying retirement. We know his interest in-terest in Orem City will continue as it has in the past as he turns his time to more leisurely pursuits. Mothers Day, 1 962 SACRED TO MANKIND is the name of Mother. None can take her place; none can defame her. It has been said that God couldn't be everywhere, every-where, so He gave us Mothers. Sunday will be Mothers Day in Orem. On this occasion we take this opportunity to make some observations observa-tions on Mother. MOTHER FOR THE FIRST TIME : Wherever else beauty lies, it may always be found in the glowing face of a woman newly called Mother. What mountain of gold could purchase pur-chase the jewel of a woman's smile when she sees her first-born for the first time? Motherhood is the very exultation and fulfillment of woman's., very existence. No experience can take its place. No experience can equal it. With her first-born, every Mother can identify herself with the Virgin Mary fondling her little Jesus. How blessed are Mothers. How great is their sacrifice, how rich their reward ! THOSE WHO ARE MOTHERS MANY TIMES: Multiplied a hundredfold hun-dredfold are the joys of Mothers with many children. As her flock is increased, in-creased, so is her capacity to love. Her dreams, plans and ambitions are realized in her children. How wonderful to her is the commandment command-ment to multiply and replenish the earth! THOSE WHO MUST REMAIN MOTHERS AT HEART: Let us not forget on Mother's Day the women who were unable to have children of their own, but who must remain Mothers at heart. These are the women who, though childless, spend their lives in service to the children of the community through love. Blessed, too, are these Mothers. Mother, we salute you, we love you, we cherish you on Mother's Day, and always. OREM-GENEVA, TIMES Thursday, May 10th, 1962 Don't Retire To a Weekly, Sumner Warns "Wanting to retire?

The senator forwarded them immediately, and Gerald toiled on some of the most complicated smd hard work he had ever encounterea.

After a thorough medical examination was given at Hill, Mental and Physical aptitute and scholastic tests were given. The waiting being the hardest hard-est part, Gerald returned after af-ter three days to his family a-nd studies. At school, he continued to participate in many various athletic activities, carrying out his duties as president of Sapere Aude, and working on the speech he will give as a graduation speaker.
