Show Dugway Edith Dennison Too late to get in last Week. Well again we have rain and wind, summer and winter all in the same breath. Anyway it is trying to rain and it thunders and lightnings all at the same time. Gee what a time we are having to get some growing weather. Last Wednesday afternoon Mr. and Mrs. John Dewsnup made a trip up this way to visit Mr. Charles Char-les Dewsnup who is still a patient in the hospital and also Mrs. Dewsnup Dew-snup who is still spending time with her daughters. Last Sunday sf emed to be visiting day with the Devvsnups up hero by Ethel Theobald Theo-bald from Hinckley, and Mr. and Mrs. John Webb and Mr. and Mrs. Spencer Webb. They also came up to give cheer and ex.tended best wishes to the ill Mr. Charles Dewsnup, Dew-snup, who is improving slowly. As I got it from a certain member mem-ber here Mrs. Barbara Beauregard from down Deseret way was voted in as Vice President of the American Ameri-can Legion Auxiliary. Good luck. We surely have good leaders from down in that neck of the woods. Well the Dennisons seem to come In for their amount of firsts here on the Post. Edith S. was the first voted In President of the PTA Association; Dallon was the first missionary from here and Theo Lorraine Dennison Ellis was among the first Seminary graduates. gradu-ates. As you can see I am trying to work up to the fact that the fir.;t Seminary graduation services were hld here Sunday May 22, at 1 p. m. for two charming girls and one handsome boy. They were Theo Dennison Ellis, Pat Riggs and Incidentally Dick spends a lot of time at the Dennison home and he says it is because of De Von, MILLARD COUNTY CHRONICLE Delta, Utah. Thurs.

Oh yes, De Von Dennison gave the opening prayer at the Graduation Gradua-tion Sunday night and Dell Ellis, the son-in-law of the Dennison's gave the benediction. Who says it does not run in families. Tare" Neilson called me up tonight to-night and informed me that he is going to do a little ward teaching tea-ching with De Von. Hope it continues con-tinues on, the companionship that is. I'm just wondering if there Is not a very lonesome girl down Sugarville way since a certain Corporal Cor-poral from Arizona had to quit taking trips down that way to see her after Virgtf Losee resigned from his job. And now the same Corporal has been separated from the Army and has gone home which is a long long ways from Inga Mae Memmott. Just keep up faith and maybe he will return. Ronnie Theobald just can't get out of the mood of playing basketball. basket-ball. It is rumored and I feel quite true that he took first place in the basket ball throw at the recent track meet at Tooele, Utah. Congrats Con-grats to you Ronnie. Good start, and keep going. Last Friday afternoon, I was called to the phone and a strange voice said to me. "Was it your son who was chosen to go to Boys State?" I was so flabbergasted as I had never heard an inkling of the situation and I said the same to the strange voice. It went on to ask, if I had a son by the name of De Von and I assured him that I did. Then he continued to ask about De Von's life's history up to date and I knew it was true. Mrs. Nellie Workman, Deltan for many years, visited here Memorial Day with her daughter, Mrs. La-Vina La-Vina Bunker. On Sunday all of Mrs. Workman's eight children were home to celebrate her birthday,, birth-day,, along with sons-in-law and daughters-in-law, and grandchildren. grandchild-ren. Fourteen of the family ac-compained ac-compained Mrs. Workman to church chur-ch Sunday evening in the 32nd Ward and were called upon by the ward bishop to stand. Gives Control Of Earthworms If j They Are Pests i Earthworms often are beneficial 1 and their control Is not desired. Occasionally they become so abundant abun-dant as to be pests in lawns and flower beds. In such cases, control I becomes necessary. , I Control: One effective control I method is to dissolve 1 ounce of 1 corrosive sublimate (bichloride of ; mercury) in 10 gallons of water. ! This solution should then be sprin kled over earthworm infested spots. Spray water from the garden gar-den hose on such treated spots. This will wash the poison into the soil, speeding earthworm control. NOTE: Corrosive sublimate is EXTREMELY POISONOUS. Care must be used in storing and handling han-dling this material. Because it corrodes metals, this material is best mixed and handled In glass or crockery. Thoroughly clean containers con-tainers Immediately after use. Read and label and follow safety precautions. A control measure, useful in treating potted plants In homes and greenhouses as well as for possible application In gardens and on lawns, is the use of lime water. The solution first Is prepared pre-pared by adding 2 cups of unslaked un-slaked lime to each 2 gallons of water. This should be thoroughly stirred, then allowed to settle. The clear liquid then should be poured off and applied freely to the soil where earthworms are causing injury. in-jury. A light dressing of 10 DDT, 5 chlordane, or of hydrated lime op-plied op-plied to infested spots, and this washed into the soil reportedly has given good control results In some areas. Rodney G.

A re! iar.ee Dealers Have Bolh Chest S Ucriaht Models TELLURIDE POWER COMPANY Mrs. Mary Lin Mills, now in France, wrote May 24 with the following interesting account of how she arrived there that we will share with our readers. Her parents, par-ents, Mr. and Mrs. George Abbott, took her and the children to Salt Lake City to begin her trip to join her husband, Tech. Sgt. Billy S. Mills, and from here on is Mary Lin's story. "It was Easter Sunday, 10th of April, 10 p. m., when, under the shelter of an umbrella, my two 1 babies, Mike, 2 years old, and Milly, 1 year old, and myself were escorted to a two-engine United Airliner at the Salt Lake airport. ; I was assisted in getting myself and babies strapped into our seats. j'As the engines of the plane started to roar, I took a quick peek out , the window at the falling sleet and told myself I'd never get on the ground alive if I ever got off alive. But In three hours time, which ! seemed like one, we had landed I in Denver. Immediately an airline employee was at my side, and a big relief it was to know I would be assisted in changing planes in the middle of the night with my two crying babies. I was the first one ushered aboard a huge four-engine four-engine airliner and given my preference pre-ference of seats. As soon as the roar of the airplane air-plane had reached one steady drone, we all fell asleep. When next I opened my eyes it was broad daylight and I noticed we were flying over a vast body of water. I racked my brain as to what body of water there was between Denver and New York that was so big. I had puzzled over it only for a second when the stewardess announced an-nounced "fasten your safety belts, we are preparing to land". And so we did. It was unbelievable. unbeliev-able. Fall asleep in Denver, and wake up, what seemed like minutes min-utes later, in New York. While I was catching my breath and marveling over this, the pilots voice came in over the loudspeaker, loudspea-ker, "Due to such and such a celling, cel-ling, w,e had to fly at such and such an altitude, so are 45 minutes late, and are sorry for the delay". I let my gaping mouth drop shut, began picking up kids and suit cases, and said to myself, "Brother, you don't have to apologize it's remarkable." While af the air terminal I met a Mrs. Jenkins who had flown in on the same plane as I. I learned that she, too, was en route over seas. Together we accumulated our luggage and caught a taxi to our New York destination. Fort Hamilton. Hamil-ton. It was 9 a. m. when our luggage was deposited onto the steps of the main processing building at Fort Hamilton. With a baby under each arm and a satchel full of shot records, papers, etc., we, a-long a-long with 900 to 1,000 other dependents depen-dents coming in on that same day, began the long tedious rigmarole of processing. By 12 noon I reached the medical medi-cal center. With confidence and a feeling of consolation that we had completed all the required immunization immuni-zation shots previously,, I carried my howling babies up to the doctor doc-tor and told him so. He said, "Lady, where ya going?" go-ing?" I said "France". He said "Line up for small pox vaccine". An epidemic of smallpox had currently cur-rently broken out In France, so we took the shots over. With gnashing teeth, wobbly knees and two tired and screaming babies. I staggered out of the medical center at 1 p. m. and vowed I'd catch the first thing possible back home. By4 p. m. we had been issued quarters, had had a bite to eat, had rested., and after attending an orientation, picked up our babies at the nursery and began the long nerve-racking, back-breaking march mar-ch through the chow line. Nearly 5000 persons lined up for the evening meaL By the time I got a plate of potatoes for each of my kids, I had made up my mind I would write my Congressman, Congress-man, and suggest that at least three more "ports of embarkation for dependents" be established on this east Coast before I return again In "57. I had decided Fort Hamilton was too small for handling so many personnel, but I must add they do a wonderful job for the over 6,000 persons going through there a month, not mention:ng the thousands thou-sands that are returning from Europe Eu-rope and processing through Fort Hamilton as they return. The following day. Tuesday, the chow line had diminshed to about 'th what it had been the day before. be-fore. I soon learned that two shiploads ship-loads of dependents had left for Germany that morning. From then on the stay at Fort Hamilton was much nicer, and went by swiftly. At C:30 p. m. Thursday, three empty buses pulled up alongside the Franklin building and ere soon loaded to capacity. We Im mediately left for the New Jersey; airpo-t. We had gone but a short; way when bus number 3 ran ino the back of a civilian car. The civil police tied the bus up and held It for an hour an a half. I thought perhaps it would take an Act of Congress to get the bus released, re-leased, but it took only an order from Fort Hamilton headquarters. At 9 p. m. we arrived (all a jitter) at the New Jersey airport and learned that some section of the airline company was on strike and refused to fuel the new plane we were to take out (Another Act of Congress.) Finally, at 12:30, we were hustled aboard a new Seaboard, Sea-board, Super Constellation airliner, which I assumed was much too large to get off the ground. However, How-ever, it did, 91 aboard. By 10 the following morning (according (ac-cording to our watches) we had landed and were unloading for a free luncheon at Shannon, Ireland. To our bewilderment the clocks at Shannon then said 4 p. m. During the hour stop at Ireland I had a quick chat with a high-lander, high-lander, during which he informed me I was the first American he had met that belonged to the community. com-munity. I asked him what he meant, and he said "a farmer's daughter". Two hours after we took off from Ireland we sighted Orly Field, Paris, below, our long-awaited destination. That is, for a few, as the majority were going on to Frankfurt,, Germany. As we circled over the field we could see a little group of Airmen below. Possibly the longest part of the trip was from that time until un-til we were in their arms, 9 p. m. April 15. Summing it all up, possibly the trip from Delta to Salt Lake in the Easter traffic was the most danger ous part of the trip. The following morning our little family stepped down into our little "sardine can", 55 French Renault. I thought we must look terribly conspicuous (and still do, when I see a car just like ours) but after a short time on the road I learned it was the very few American cars that were conspicuous and too large for the roads. , We drove very quickly through the streets of Paris and headed wuth' 150 miles to our new home. Every mile of the way was new and interesting, especially the vehicles ve-hicles on the road. About ten percent per-cent possibly were autos, anything from the old American T-Ford to the new 55 French cars, the latter are few. Most of the "promenading" is done on bicycles, old white-headed men and women to babies. The babies, of course, ride in a basket. There are a few motor bikes and motorcycles. A large marjority of the French walk. , We saw many- many . horse-drawn horse-drawn vehicles, carts, wagons, and old black top buggies like Grandpa Grand-pa got around in. Probably the most modernized and streamlined mobile unit the French have is the baby carriage. Some are complete, com-plete, even to windeshield. I could go on at great length telling about the many, many things there are to see, the customs, cust-oms, the way the people dress, and the various extremes. But cutting it short, I will hurry to to where we live, near the center of the fairly good-sized city of Issoudun. We live in a French chateau, like all French chateaus, except maybe may-be nicer in a lot of ways. Our chateau connects on to a string of other chateaus. Looking ddwn the street from the front if it were not for the rise and fall of the hlghpeaked roofs it would be impossible to tell where one chateau cha-teau separates from another. Our chateau, like all French chateaus, cha-teaus, is claimed by someone that "Napoleon slept here." I really doubt it, unless he had an electric blanket he could never have survived sur-vived the cold till morning. Our front door is a big iron door with a sliding bolt. It opens into a big marble-floored hall that runs straight (I should say slanting) through the house to another big iron door which opens onto a lovely love-ly modern patio surrounded by beautiful flower gardens. On each side of the hall are big high-ceiling rooms and in each room is a beautiful marble fireplace fire-place with enormous mirrors. One is approximately 4 feet by 8 feet In an Imitation gold frame. All of them stand to the ceiling. Our furniture Is all old. in A-merica A-merica it would be called antique. In France it Is still modern and beautiful. We have a china cabinet cabin-et from Napoleon s time, and some art work. I believe the early Hebrews He-brews left. Moving on into the kitchen we find a sink, a sink and our own American G. E. refrigerator. re-frigerator. The rest of our furniture furni-ture is somewhere between Salt Lake and here. I w ish everyone at home could put on a big heavy coat and visit us Li our home. As a whole. I think France is beautiful, green hillsides and "beaucoup" (lots) of flowers such as I have seen only In pictures before. It has rained almost every day since I arrived, so that explains ex-plains the fresh and green look of France. The French are many years behind be-hind in almost everything. They know it. but don't exercise any des;re to change. The American G. I. phrase for It Is "Napoleon had It this way. why change ruw T' Your Doctor Says The following it one of a teries of article written by memberi of the Utah State Medical Anocicmon and published tn cooperation with your local newspaper. The"- r"':cle$ are icheduled to appear every other week throughout the year tn an effort to better acquaint you with problem of herlih, and defined to improve the well-being of the people of Utah FOREIGN OBJECTS IN THE AIR AND FOOD PASSAGES It is not uncommon to read an article in the newspaper or to have someone tell you of a friend who has choked on a foreign object, An interesting fact concerning this subject is that certain specific objects are more frequently swallowed swal-lowed or aspirated than others and each can be associated with a particular age group. For instance, in-stance, open safety-pins are often found in children from three months to two years of age, whereas where-as peanuts are aspirated by children child-ren from fifteen months to four years of age. Coins are swallowed by two to four-year-olds, and various types of small hardware can be picked up by three-to seven- year old children. Chicken bones and fish bones may be listed in the category with adult victims from thirty to eighty-four years m . fx t- j . . ui use jwun aeniures1. in most instances the safety-pins, bones, and coins become lodged in the food passages; whereas the peanuts, pea-nuts, hardware, and vegetable material usually must be retrieved from the air passages. Generally speaking, carelessness is the most constant factor for either aspirating or swallowing roreign objects. he fact that so many small infants swallow open safety-pins illustrates this point clearly. A person in a state of , unconsciousness from anesthesia, i alcoholism, accident, etc., may also , swallow or aspirate foreign objects. The general symptoms of an occurrence of this type can be divided into three stages. The 'initial one consists of violent paroxysms par-oxysms of coughing and gagging, , produced as the foreign object is ' swallowed or aspirated. Then follows fol-lows a symptomless interval during which time the foreign body becomes be-comes fixed, without producing any severe reactions. This period is most treacherous and accounts for a large percentage of cases wherein the real cause of the individual's distress is overlooked or unsuspected, unsus-pected, for one is inclined to minimize a foreign-object history, taking false assurance from the fact that if the patient has no symptoms, either no foreign obiect is present, or it is in a position where it will do no harm. A simple illustration follows: A child swallowed ar open safety- oin. initial choking and gagging gag-ging was quite violent, but quickly subsided as it reached the mid-esophagus, mid-esophagus, where it remained fixed for days and days; and the infant was able to swallow its liouid formula over the pin without any evidence of obstruction or symptoms. symp-toms. The third stage is the stage of complications. So varied are these complications that specific instances in-stances cannot be mentioned. However, How-ever, regardless of their nature, they should immediately direct attention to the possible presence of a foreign object Anything which might become lodged in the larynx (voice boxy will probably cause hoarseness.; cough, and shortness of breath or difficulty in breathing. If an ob-f ject is drawn or passed into the windpipe or bronchial tubes, thel individual also has violent par-i oxysni3 of coughing and gagging. The short, symptomless interval follows, and then there usually is heard the typical symptom of asthma as-thma or an audible wheeze. Wheezes are not always caused by asthma. Because of the short symptomless interval, the period of complications usually arises at once. CarefuL examination reveals indications of some form of obstruction to the. windpipe or one of the bronchial tubes. There is usually a change in the patient's breathing, and the cough persists. One might suspect that he has an acute pneumonia. It can be observed from the' foregoing that diagnosis is not always easy. To establish the' diagnosis correctly, one must carefully care-fully evaluate the history, the. symptoms, physical findings, and' the x-ray studies. A positive his-; tory of choking or gagging, or the! statement of the patient, no matterj now young, that he has swallowed' something must never be ignored.- Most foreiffn objects in the air. and food passages can be removed) with special instruments, which; are called bronchoscopes and; esophagoscopes. They are electri-l cally-lighted, hollow tubes through; which the doctor can see and rrasn: . the foreign bodies with speciaf-f type forceps for removal. Occasion-' ally the work must be done with! the aid of the x-ray machine; but! by careful cooperation of all con-1 cerned, the problem is usually, successfully completed. ' wnen a patient presents anv symptoms which might suggest the. presence or a roreurn body, there should be no delay in contacting, his family doctor. Immediate treat-' ment reduces the chances of com-. plication. A child who is found j choking and gagging, and whoi has difficulty in breathing should1 be suspected of having swallowed! or aspirated a foreign object To' serve him best, DO NOT TURN HIM UP-S I DE-DOWN AND) POUND HIM ON THE BACK. , Lift him over vour shoulders and ! comfort him into a feeling of re- laxation and well-being. By doing 1 this, the symptomless interval will! arrive sooner, and it is at this time '. that medical aid should be sought i DON'T WAIT! i Sometimes I believe I can sympathize sym-pathize with the French in staying stay-ing as they are. There is a certain peacefulness in the old fashion-edness fashion-edness of all they do that I don't sup,pose exists anywhere in the world. To us the French, except communists, have been very fine and understanding. I got off to a big start shortly after I arrived, by locking the maid of the landlord's land-lord's estate down in the wine cellar. She had been sent for wines for the guests. Thirty minutes min-utes after I had found the cellar door standing open, and thinking I was doing a good turn, I locked it. I stepped into the yard and heard someone calling "madame, madame." I unlocked the door and not being able to utter a word of French, I dashed, red-faced, into the house and learned my first words of French "excusez moi."
