Some of the children (our two youngest,' for instance) already have that water-logged, sunburned look! This is the first time I've been able to manage to be at Delta Cemetery in time for the Legion Post's Memorial Day services. I was impressed. The Cemetery looked nice but I have heard that Delta Cemetery looks more unkempt than other cemeteries in the West Millard Mil-lard area. If all the youths employed in the NYC program works as well as the crew at Delta City Park Tuesday Tues-day then they are good workers! What a vast difference in the way the rose garden, in particular, looked look-ed when I left for work at 9:00 a.m. and when I returned at 4:00 p.m. Now that the program is in full effect, perhaps something can be done about taking out dead trees at the Delta Junior and Senior High School grounds. A dead tree in a row of trees is very noticable and mars the looks of the whole land- scapee scene. You know, high school graduates seem to get younger every year. I daresay that by the time our youngest graduates, she will only be fifteen years old or youngerl I've been reading up on soil steii-lants. steii-lants. Frank Scoonover from Salt Lake Dty, a salesman and an air-round air-round good feller gave me some phamplets on soil sterilants. I want to put it on the slopes of the hill at our home. I don't like weeds and I think I'm getting too old to keep cutting them! Wonder how many clubs, towns, etc. have selected their candidates for royalty of the coming Fourth of July? The deadline is June 8 with the deadline for pictures June 14. Qualifications for candidates are 16 years of age and older and unmarried. un-married. Two big events are coming up around the first of July. Governor Rampton is scheduled to visit Millard Mil-lard County and bids are to be let on the new school building. We've waited a good longtime for the building, haven't we? Some of us rather impatiently, (myself included) I'll have to admit! I CAN'T WAIT1 CAN'T WAIT. 1 CAN'T WAIT! 1 We should ail be grateful to Charlotte Morrison and Betty Kelly for spearheading the drive to clean up Gunnison Bend Reservoir beach which they surely did like a ball of fire last year. Sunday afternoon Bob and I drove by the public beach and approximately 50 to 60 persons were enjoying the beach and water. We didn't recognize any of them, either. We surmised that they were from other parts of the state and we know some were from out-of-state, as we did see "furin" license plates on some of the cais. Two or three families were parked near the ol' "two-holers" with camping outfits. We drove around Sherwood Shores and it was humming hum-ming like a beehive, also. The weekend was ideal for outings and camping. Several were swimming, boating and fishing and some were just enjoying the out-of-doors. Any way, Charlotte and Betty got a burr in their blanket at the right IRRIGATION WATER Delta City irrigation water will be in the ditches every other Monday. Mon-day. Water users residing west of the tracks will receive the water every other Wednesday. This sched ule goes into effect next week. All water users are reminded that a $5.00 ditch tax is now payable at Delta City Offices. . of Mr. end Mrs. Thurmon Moody; Paul Losee, son of Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Losee; Jim Smith, son of Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Smith; Stan THE PEOPLE OF DELTA AND THE GREAT PAHVANT Thursday, June 3, 196b time!

The liquor is private stock of various Legion members. Entrance was gained by raising a window Thursday night, May 20. Two days later the boys turned themselves into Highway Patrolman Patrol-man Tom Rynearson with nine bottles of the liquor. Patrolman Rynearson apprised Deputy Sheriff Mills of the situation and he has conducted the investigation since. Deputy Sheriff Mills told the Chronicle Thursday that the invest igation would be completed when it was determined what happened to the three missing bottles. At that time formal charges will be made and the case turned over to the Prosecuting Attorney, County Attorney Eldon Eliason. If charged with grand larceny persons over fourteen years of age can be tried in District Court, De puty Sheriff Mills said. He reported that this is the first brush with breaking the law for either boy and that approximately $20.00 in coins and currency was untouched by the youths. At the regular meeting of the Legion Le-gion Post Wednesday, May 26, post members discussed the matter thoroughly and voted overwhelmingly overwhelm-ingly in favor of the case being handled by the Juvenile Court rather rath-er than District Court.

Speaker of the day was Bishop Ward Killpack, veteran of World War H. The day was ideal for Memorial Memor-ial Day services and visitors from far and near were present to hear Bishop Killpack deliver the following fol-lowing address: "We have met here to commemorate com-memorate a day that has long been observed. It was in the years immediately following the Civil War that some of the South- ' ern States set aside a day for the decoration of the graves of the dead Confederate soldiers. A short time later the custom spread to the Northern States and a day was set aside to decorate dec-orate the graves of the Civil War so'diers, thus it became known as Decoration Day. In the years to follow the custom has been carried on and as wars have come and gone the dead have been duly honored. The name has since been changed to Memorial Day and time has brought decoration dec-oration and commemoration of civilian as well as military graves. "And why do we carry on this custom? It is because of Love and Faith. "What is Love? Love broadly defined is the giving of one's self in planned determined effort, giving not for material gain, nor for unworthy purpose, not for rewards re-wards of tinse'.. Love is given because be-cause we know that the quality of life is fabricated, preserved, and extended by a dynamic completely com-pletely worthy and unselfish love, a love as exemplified in the Life of Christ. "Everyone who loves with all his might, and mind and heart in the light of wisdom and the teaching of our Lord will have the beauty and the glory of human hu-man dignity about him and upon up-on him. "What is Faith? Faith is a conviction, con-viction, an attitude of mind, which is not a perfect or certain knowledge, yet it is an active, dynamic assurance which is much stronger than desire, hope or even belief. This conviction diligently looks at all available facts and finds a meaning in them which sparks the spirit and mind of man to work and strive toward the ultimate truth. Faith employs thinking, for that is where it comes from. Faith is necessitated by the nature of our existence; we live in a sea of ignorance; ig-norance; however, it should not be considered as a substitute when knowledge is available. "Faith is the extension of all available knowledge that enables one to make decisions and take necessary action when complete knowledge is unavailable. Therefore, There-fore, faith is not, as some people hastily conclude, a blind religious religi-ous substitute for knowledge; for it is founded in part in the body of past experience and must of necessity be harmonious with known facts. Though faith has its basis in the body of knowledge, knowl-edge, it looks toward the future.' toward the land of probability. "Greater than atomic bombs is the cumulative effect of individual individu-al man's thinking, aspiratons and conduct. "The cumulative effect of man's daily effort is much like snow flakes tailing on tall mountain moun-tain peaks or like raindrops in the meadows below. IN DUE TIME, they become trickles, then brooks, then rivers, flowing on to the vastness of the sea beyond. "The DUE TIME referred to is our life span on earth.

Life and its evolve-ment evolve-ment until graves end is intrinsically intrin-sically meshed with time. As such time is our mortal treasurer, each of us has his span of moments. mo-ments. Time is our treasure to spend and invest. If each of us, each day, had a telestar in the heavens above that could reflect and remind us of our debts to generations past, our responsibilities responsibil-ities to the present and the pressing press-ing need for investment in the future, we would have the ultimate ulti-mate in orientation for the spending of treasured time. "An essential requisite in the time-spending is the quality of being humble. To be humble is a carriage of true greatness. Provide Pro-vide it the fuel of worthy motivation. moti-vation. Steer with wisdom and applied intelligence. On the turns keep your star in sight. Your final fi-nal port will be a higher plan of spiritual advancement, the resultant re-sultant of time well-spent. "It is inevitable that our little ripple of daily time-spending will eventually join the "Big Chorus". Alone we are but the flatness of clay. As an active integral part of a wholesome society, we become be-come part of a beautiful melody, which whispers directives from out of the past, graces the present pres-ent moment and interprets the future. The interpretation will be one of beauty and hope in place of despair at the disenence of life. Time is our earthly wealth. Spend it as a miser would bis gold, but spend with a florish and a brilliance of the many faceted gem whose lovely and exciting light will trail long after you are gone."

Color bearers were Joseph Jos-eph Mercer, Jr., and Boyd Bunker; Bunk-er; Color Guards were Howard Hardy and Leonard Vodak; Gold-wyn Gold-wyn Cluff, Jr. was Chaplain and Rex Jensen, Sgt.-at-Arms.
