Peterson School receives donation The Alpine School District Board of Education has gratefully acknowledged acknowl-edged the receipt of a donation designated for a local school. With a unanimous vote of thanks, the board, at their February business busi-ness meeting, recognized the Fra ternal Order of Eagles which donated do-nated $1,000 to purchase adaptive devices for the students at Peterson Peter-son School in American Fork. The funds are being provided as part of the Jimmy Durante Children's Chil-dren's Grant. Dear Ann Land-rs: A few months ago you printed a letter who signed herself "J. B. from Memphis." She recounted her experience of having gone to a doctor with a lump in her breast, only to have him assure her that the lump was benign and nothing noth-ing needed to be done. A year later, after several more visits, J.B. was advised to have surgery. The lump, it turns out, was not only malignant, but the cancer had spread to her lungs. She pleaded with your readers to insist on a biopsy so that treatment might come in time and they would not risk the same fate that shehad suffered. I am sad to report that I just returned from J.B.'s funeral. She died after a long and valiant struggle to overcome her illness. The church was filled with people who came to honor her for the very kind of thoughtfulness that she expressed in her letter to you. During the service, the priest mentioned her letter to Ann Landers as an example ex-ample of her concern for others even at a time when she was the one in desperate need of help. The priest also said that J.B. had re-ceivedmany re-ceivedmany letters and phonecalls from friends thanking her for what she had written. I thought you might like to know that providing a nationwide na-tionwide audience for people who have important things to say is a much-appreciated service. For those who still think you make up the letters, let me assure them that you do not. And again, thanks for providing an outlet for countless people who have problems prob-lems both trivial and serious. J.B.'s Friend, Memphis Dear Friend: It was good of you to write. And now, in memory of J.B., I want to remind re-mind my female readers once again that a mammogram every ev-ery year for women over 40 is a must. Ninety percent of the women whose breast cancers are diagnosed early go on to live full lives. Ann Landers 1991 Creators Syndicate, Inc. An alcohol problem?

Box 11562, Chicago, 111. 60611-0562. Dear Ann Landers: My ex-husband has been engaged to ,and has been living with, a woman for 18 months. She has two young children chil-dren from her first marriage. My three kids, 11, 13 and 14, have not been very happy about this from day one. They are not crazy about the woman or her children. Last weekend my ex-husband told our kids to bring swimsuits and nice outfits because he was taking them "somewhere" for the weekend. It turned out that he and his girlfriend had their wedding all planned and never told the kids. Naturally the children were shocked and unhappy. My kids came home Sunday night in tears. They were hurt to think that their father had "tricked" them into this. They would not have attended at-tended the wedding had they been given a choice. This man claims to love his children, chil-dren, but when he pulls a stunt like this, I have to wonder. Please, Ann, let us know what you think of this. - Milwaukee. Dear Milwaukee: It was a thoughtless move, to say the least, but I don't see that it has anything to do with whether or not your husband loves the children. You and the children could use some family counseling. Your hatred for your husband - - which he probably earned -- is so intense that the kids are "catching" it and this will work against them in many ways. For their sake, please try to be less hostile. They'll admire your integrity when they are older. TILLERS AND ATTACHMENTS ISymper Crop oimaeiza Save Three Ways: 1. S200 off the BCS 725 Series Model of your choice OR 2.

Upon hearing the laughter, others joined the group, eager to share the fun. Port handed the paper to a sheepish Markham, motioning for him to move font and center to answer the charges. The old scout refused, shaking his head, while those about him continued to laugh. Others urged him forward. He just shook his head. He was the only one not laughing. "I wish you boys would forget what happened in church last week," Markham said. "It was too embarrassing embar-rassing to be funny. Just leave me alone." "I had something more embarrassing embar-rassing than that happen to me once," Port offered, loud enough for all to hear, suddenly taking the attention away from a grateful Markham. Port paused. "Tell us about it, Port," a voice called out. "It's too embarrassing to talk about," Port teased, his voice high with excitement. "Tell us," another shouted. Everyone Ev-eryone cheered. Port had never much cared for speaking in front of groups, particularly par-ticularly in church or at political gatherings. But this was different. These men were his friends, eager to have their legs pulled. They were having a good time together. He was getting Markham off the hot seat (To be continued) 8Rfl f I v , - 4 l'KJdOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO dB?l, rj?A mut?w tc ppnurM v r? oo mm wr m i i n ifusuA. u x iuiiuiui - - mj, xaox FFA BUILDING TODAY B 1 .-m aw.
