This was brought to us by the National School Assembly. Assem-bly. The performer was Duke Gordon, Gor-don, who is an archer. This proved to be very interesting, interest-ing, as Mr. Gordon is a very excellent ex-cellent bowman. Some of the acts he did: Shoot through a board with an arrow minus a head; shoot rotating balloons, drive an arrow through a frying pan with a sixty pound test bow (with broadhead. shoot four arrows at once . . . just some of his acts. He also showed the students his bow collection; told what part of the world they came from; what people used them; and many other interesting things about bows and arrows. He asked our principal, Mr. All-red, All-red, to come up and let him shoot an apple off his head; but it ended end-ed with Mr. Allred shooting a crossbow. cross-bow. The students were amazed at his marksmanship. Colleen Bar-ben Bar-ben and Earland Richardson also had similar opportunities. The students found this very interesting in-teresting and are looking forward to the coming lyceums. David Hales Representative Dixon at DHLS. Tuesday, Sept. 23, the Delta Jr. High School had the pleasure of listening to Representative Aldous Dixon, one of Utah's two representatives represent-atives to Congress. His talk was very interesting and non-political in every respect. He told us of his boyhood and what he went through growing up and of his life as a Representative. He told us the meaning and value of the important import-ant bill that passed during the 85th Congress. He gave the students a chance to ask questions after his talk, and is sending every one who did, a token to remember the assembly as-sembly by. We appreciated his being be-ing here very much, and would like to thank him for his appearance and invite him to come back any time. Kay Christensen Up In Flume!

The time was 7:00 p.m. and the place-Delta's Main Street. When the team was finally assembled as-sembled a line formed and started to "snake dance" down to the "Mighty Eagle" centered in the circle of onlookers and cheering fans. The cheerleaders led us in some yells. We heard speeches from some of the team, coach, and Principal Allred. Then the group sang the school song and every one held their breath as they struck the match. Then a mighty cheer as as the "Great Eagle" went up in flame. They then proceeded to join at the school where they all piled into cars like packed in sardines and drug Main. As everyone probably prob-ably heard, there was much horn honking and cheering. A couple of car loads of kids left for Fillmore for continued cheering. D.II.S. has the pep! Mr. and Mrs. Don A.

GUAKDING OI KEEPING THE VIGIL Our American form ot republic was devised to provide an ingenious system of "checks and balances" balanc-es" in government. The object, of course, was to make sure that too great a concentration of power would not be captured by the legislative bodies, the judiciary, or the executive with its broad police powers. pow-ers. The system has worked well. But it would not have been successful without the "checks and balances" bal-ances" supplied by a force apart from government the free and independent newspapers of America. Because of our alert, free, and enterprising press, our courts, Congress, legislatures and executive bodies are exposed to public view, like goldfish in a glass bowl. The price of freedom is eternal vigilance. America's newspapers keep that vigil, twenty-four hours' of every day. So that we do not forget the role of a free press in preserving freedom, National Newspaper News-paper Veek is being observed October 1 to 8. Reed Turner Announces Plans to Attend 1559 Case Yorld Premiere in Nassau Reed Turner, local dealer for J. I. Case Farm Tractors and Machinery, today revealed re-vealed that he is planning to attend the 1959 Nassau World Premiere and Annual Case Dealers' Conference, to be held next November No-vember and December at Nassau in the Bahama Ba-hama Islands. Mr. Turner, who recently returned from a special Case Branch meeting for dealers in Salt Lake, said that Case is awarding a five-day five-day expense-paid business-vacation trip to the island capital, to all dealers who meet or exceed their sales goles this year. Highlight High-light of the Nassau conference will be special spec-ial emphasis on 1959 marketing plans and new ways in which Case dealers can be of better service to their customers. Dealers will be flown to Nassau in chartered char-tered commercial airliners, in what Case officials of-ficials predict will be the largest overseas civilian airlift from the standpoint of passenger passen-ger miles covered. Case sales for the first 9 months of the Company's fiscal year showed one of the higest rates of increase in company comp-any history. As a matter of fact, according to a company spokesman, J. I. Case sales percentage increase is more than double that of any of its major competitors. In commenting on the coming Nassau World Premiere, Mr. Turner said, "Naturally "Natural-ly we intend to do everything in our power to qualify as many of our people as possible for the free Nassau trip. This means that during the next two months we are going to be giving higher trade-in allowances and better deals than ever before on all models of Case agricultural tractors and equipment. Consequently, farmers in this area will have a chance to pick up some real bargains in farm tractors and equipment during our special spe-cial "operation Nassau." ,.-,..-., I i If mr ? l" 71 .. ..
