By d'AIessio "Just to give you an Idea how utterly bad things are, it looks like I'M going to have to start giving up things!" I did not attend the town meeting meet-ing Monday night concerning the new location for the post office building, but I would like to say a word about the landscaping of the spot which was up for consideration. consid-eration. I beiieve everyone with me would say, that there is nothing now a-vailable a-vailable which denotes heauty to those passing by that particular spot, because of the high hedge that shuts out any view that may be there. The rose garden would be more appreciated and admired if moved to the south side of the pioneer cab.n. Then a lin of beautiful ar-borvitaes ar-borvitaes or other types of slim 4)ine trees along the east of the post office (the back of it) would make a beautiful spot for tourist, and even town people for social gatherings. An attractive entrance facing the west could be artistically arranged. The swimming pool, the green lawn, the fireplace and playground are all in the right place to be enjoyed, en-joyed, and a post office to the west in line with the other brick building build-ing (the swimming pool bldg.) would offset a very attractive Recreational Re-creational Center.

During the past several years the caretaker has been less than half the $600 and if the balance was spent on fertilizer and spray, then something was wrong. Surely we could afford to keep up a quarter of a block of park without too much expense for a city the size of Delta. The possibility of moving established estab-lished roses su-ch as we have should not be considered. The labor involved would cost more than new roses, and most of the roses would not survive transplanting. Several people expressed themselves them-selves as favoring each citizen of Delta , first planting his Rome grounds. The garden club is in favor of such a notion, and would be glad to give anyone any help desired in such a project. However, most of those people involved in planning and planting the rose garden gar-den had already done their own home grounds twenty years ago, or more and if as large a percentage of the other homeowners kept their grounds in the manner that these Familv Moots at llirtii!av dinner Mrs. Nell McCullough Watson, ui of Delta's early settlers, cele brated her b rthday Monday, and on Sunday was honored at a birth day party at the home of her daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and irs. Joe Barney. I With them for the happy event were Mrs. Watsons cnuaren ana grandchildren, Mrs. Alta Jamison, iondra and Kenny Jamison, and friend Janeal Rosenhan, Garth and Opal Jean Tolbert, Lynnette, Mar- go, Howard and Bruce Tolbert, who ;ame Saturday from Salt Lake City, James and Lucile Sampson, Sheila and Lori Kay Sampson, of Deseret, and Paul, Vcki, Marcia, Michael and Diane Barney, Delta. Harold Jamison, Salt Lake City, and Phil and Stella Forand, San Farncisco, were unable to come at this time, and telephoned Mrs. Watson with birthday greetings. I can't call anyone to get news as the phones are all out of order out th'.s way, going to town. Yes-j Yes-j terday I counted 31 poles flat with I lines tangled and from the river east as far as 1 could see, every pole was down. The paper said 90 phones out Sutherland direction were out of commission. We sure miss our phone, don't know how soon they ean be repaired. I'm sorry little girls Four Little Measuring Cups, I forgot your meet ng. Mrs. Galli showed the girls how to make three kinds of muffins and this week the girls took their ingredients and made them; first they make a Quick mix like "B squick", then make a variety var-iety of muffins from it. The girls are trying hard to learn. We were happy to see Mrs. Cora Larsen is home after she and her was left undecided so that more people could express themselves, and so that investigation of possible pos-sible sites could be done, we would like to publicize our thoughts in order that they may help others to come to a decision. No one opposed the idea of building a new post office if that can be done. We are only of the opinion that using a part of the park for such a building would not be to the best interest of the city. We feel that it is not a question of a post office OR a rose garden, but could well be a post office AND a rose garden. Our city has lost population the past few years. Some of the leading lead-ing men in our communities have been working to attract new industry in-dustry and tourists here. Surely a city park is an asset that can help make Delta more attractive to outside out-side Interests. Keeping our park intact, f.lling in an empty space with a new building or occupying one which would otherwise be empty em-pty seems more in keeping with this goal.
