Each speaker presented 10 talks, each talk to a different group. The students seemed to enjoy the varioui talks and I am sure the men presenting the speeches welcomed the opportunity to talk to the different groups. At the close of the session each speaker was presented with a pen and holder for his desk, this was a very thoughtful gesture from the school and I am sure I speak for all when I say it was deeply appreciated. ap-preciated. APPRECIATION EXPRESSED- Receiving a pen from the Orem Junior High was the second nice gesture I have received from this school. I guess everyone is human when they say a word of appreciation appre-ciation is not all the time necessary neces-sary but is appreciated by everyone. every-one. Last year yours truly was presented a Orem Junior High school year book, and when I opened open-ed it they had put my picture in their year book with words of appreciation for my service to the school. This was one xof the nicest things that has happened to me since I have been in the newspaper news-paper business. An old Chinese proverb: If thine enemy wrong thee, buy each of his children a drum.

Opening Of Lounge On Should a business establish ment which operates as a lounge selling beer and permitting the consumption of liquor on the premises Monday through Satur day be allowed to operate as a cafe on Sunday? That was the question with which the Orem City Council was confronted at its regular meeting Monday night. City Manager Earl Wenereen reported that the Flame Supper Club, 235 South State St., had requested permission to open on Sundays, operating as a cafe, only, without selling beer or permitting consumption of Liquor on the premises. Asked by the Council for a leeal opinion on the matter. Citv Attor ney Hugh Vern Wentz said he could find nothing presently in the city ordinances to prevent a lounge from operating as a cafe on Sun days, although the practical mat ter of keeping liquor off the prem ises on Sundays would likly be insurmountable. Councilman Harley M.Gillman said, 'I think it would be a mistake mis-take to have an establishment wear two hats In this manner. I move that we instruct the city attorney to draw an ordinance to eliminate any possible Sunday operation of businesses which operate as lounges the other six days of the week."
