Now to own a newspaper, here is what you'll have to do in one normal day: Explain to Mrs. Smith why Aunt Sara's 85th birthday birth-day party was not on the front page. Explain to an advertiser why it is impossible to get him on page three. Explain to an ex-subscriber why you had to cut off his unpaid subscription. 1 Explain deadlines 500 times a day and why you have to have them. Soothe a lady who called her party in too late. Explain why some weeks you've got news running run-ning out of your ears and other weeks the paper reads like a report on Amalgamated Steel. Apologize to an advertiser for an error in his ad and smile sweetly while he tells you what an idiot you are. Decipher scribbling that comes in written on a check blank, paper napkins, a corner of junior's arithmetic arith-metic paper or the back of a letter from Cousin Ted. Pet a balky Linotype that is as nervous as a dish of jello and puts you further behind when you're already al-ready behind. Cope with a folder that is antisocial and wallowing wallow-ing in its own importance that it can, at this final minute, min-ute, keep you from getting a paper circulated and starts acting like a little1 boy who wants to go to the bathroom.

I would like to explain my interest inter-est in this matter and what has been done. The Kiwanis Club started on a project to create a Mosquito Abatement Ab-atement District for West Millard. I am chairman of that committee. In May I was contacted by the Millard Mil-lard County Commissioners to see if I could attend a meeting in Salt Lake City on Mosquito Control. This I did at the County's expense. I reported to the Commissioners on what I had learned and was told that $500.00 was to be put up by the County for spraying. I was asked if I would head up a committee com-mittee and told the Commissioners Commission-ers I WOULD NOT. I said that I would arrange a meeting and have Mr. Shields from the State Health and Sanitation Dept. present to explain the pro- Lars Bishop, son of Mr. and Mrs. Heber Bishop, of Hinckley, received his master's degree from Utah State University in June.

A. D. was organized. I made a trip into the Capitol at my own expense to try and arrange ar-range this meeting. To date we are scheduled for a complete survey the third week of July. This is in view of any Encephalitis En-cephalitis outbreak. I am expecting to have word that the State will have a man here to explain the control measures, sometime some-time next week but have nothing definite on this. Any group or individual who wants to get this thing rolling are welcome to it, but as matters now stand there is no committee organizednor or-ganizednor does any one have any authorization to spend County funds for any spraying, unless it is the Commissioners themselves. Work is still under way to create a Mosquito Abatement District and we hope to have this done for next year. I sincerely hope this letter will help, somewhat, to clear the air and explain to you, my position in this matter.

After this group was incorporated inlq the Boys Scouts of America, many of these boys lost touch with their fellow members. However, through the years a small alumni group has carried on, keeping the spirit of Lone Scouting alive in memory. This group, known as the Elbeetian Legion is holding a convention in Kanab, Utah on August 26, 27 and 28, 1959 and is anxious to get in touch with all former Lone Scouts.
