North Western U0UM HdUM By INEZ RIDING LETTER TO A FRIEND , Dear Marie: How are you, anyway? It's been quite a long time since I've written writ-ten to you. But, I have been busy and I have just kept "putting off" my letter-writing. j This is a lovely fall here in Delta. Del-ta. The trees are just beginning to turn a little bit. The days are nice and sunshiny. The nights are cool. Ideal weather. Bob, Sr. and Snooks Black went chukar hunting over the weekend. Mrs. Black and I are probably the only two chukar-widders in the whole state! They had a good time and drove miles and miles and miles. They got out of the pickup and walked miles and miles and miles. They reported to Mrs. Black and mo that their food was excellent. ex-cellent. There really is nothing like food in the openair where the ash substitues for salt and pepper! It rained almost all the time they were gone. The bread became soggy, sog-gy, the eggs were floating in their own little pool, the milk cartons leaked and they forgot their coffeepot! cof-feepot! Nevertheless, they had a wonderful wonder-ful time. They saw deer tracks and some doves, a lot of country, a lot of mud and many wet, dripping trees. And nary a chukar. Guess the ehukars showed more sense than they did. They stayed In out of the storm! But, I don't dare mention that. In fact, I have hardly hard-ly dared talk about the hunt at all. Bob gets touchy when his hunting hunt-ing trips don't produce! My, he Wis touchy. , Services for Rose Oewsnup Friday Fimtral services for Rose Conk Dewsnup, G7, will be held Friday, 11:00 a.m. in the Deseret Ward Chapel.

While he was gone I painted a bedroom. It turned out quite pretty. pret-ty. The walls are bone-white and now the floor is blue with white polka dots. I didn't plan it that way. It just happened. Guess now I'll have to paint the floor. Life seems to go on about the same in Delta. There seems to be very few changes. Everybody just loves everybody else. It is a nice place in which to live. It's nice to know that you are known and loved lov-ed by everyone else and that everything ev-erything you do is also known by everyone else. This school year seems to be going go-ing much smoother than last year. There are some complaints about this and that. But there are always al-ways some complaints about everything, ev-erything, isn't there? School is changing, though. The students are actually beginning to admit that the teachers know more than they do, or so I have heard, I hope I've heard right because this means this younger generation Is even smarter than our generation was at their age. Sue and Ray Dutson are just fine. Susan got rid of her pig she had in the front room and Ray seems to be quite happy about that. I don't know what Sue does to her animals that they think they are people but she now has a rooster that chases children and thinks he belongs In the house! She also has a couple of cats and a whole pack of dogs. They have moved from the farmhouse and are now living in Hinckley. Brose Roberts has changed so that he's hardly the same person to be around. He never jokes or anything. He just sorta sits and smiles. Norma Waddingham gave me some chokecherry syrup. Some fine day I intend to get up early and make hotcakes for this famil y of mine. Chokecherry syrup is delicious delici-ous on hotcakes or waffles. I made some when we were in Craig and it fermented. I can't remember what we did with that! City elections are coming up. I haven't heard the names of any candidates, to date. Maybe we'll have another write-in! Of course candidates have until Oct. 20 to file. So maybe something is developing de-veloping that I haven't been able to "snoop" out. And that reminds nie Cleo Whick er never calls me anything but "Scoop." But, I get even with him. I call him "Gripey." We get along allright though, Cleo and I, and have a lot of good laughs together. I've been reading everything I can get my hands on about potential poten-tial presidential candidates. My word, there is a lot of material on each of them. None interests me. Anyway not yet. There is a lot of talk about the drop in President Johnson's popularity. Some of this is justified, I think, and long overdue. over-due.

JUDGE PAXMAN 3rd District Court Judge Cautions Unlicensed Drivers Juvenile Judge Monroe Paxman reports that in the Third Juvenile Court District there is still the continuing con-tinuing problem of unlicensed drivers dri-vers operating motor vehicles on the public highway. Some parents persist in knowingly allowing their i unlicensed children to drive. Other I unlicensed children, of course, drive when the opportunity presents itself It is surprising to some parents to find that operating a motor bike or motor cycle requires a license when ever the vehicle is taken on a public street, even back streets and country roads. The judge feels that the folks in his district should again be alerted to the serious financial as well as legal consequences resulting from such actions. Section 41-12-17.5, Sub-Section 3 of the Utah Code, under the title of Driver License and Financial Responsibility Res-ponsibility Laws of the State of Utah, provides that a person "operating "op-erating a motor vehicle upon the highways without being licensed to do so," that "no license shall be thereafter Issued to such person until he shall give and thereafter maintain proof of financial responsibility". respon-sibility". The insurance rates are high in these situations and thus are a real burden to the child and his parents. One parent found that his insurance rates went up $170.00 per year because be-cause his son had received a ticket for driving a Tote Gote on the street in front of his home. Again Judge Paxman asks for the cooperation of the children and the parents in seeing to it that unlicensed unli-censed persons stay off the highways. MS M Delta. Utah 84624 10c copy MR. AND MRS.

Sorensen, Attor- ney Eliason and Recorder Madge. Johnsn. Minutes of the Sept. 11 meeting were read and approved. Bills were presented and accepted. Minutes of the August 28, 1967, meeting read and approved (as read) at Sept. 11, 1967, meeting, were heatedly discussed Monday night. The August 28 minutes contain con-tain portions of a verbal battle between be-tween Mayor Morrison and Council man Archie Barben. At Monday night's meeting the mayor indicated that he thought that the Official Minutes should not include verbal battles or that they should contain more details. Councilmen are of the opinion that the minutes should stand as read and approved. Following the discussion Monday night Councilman Hardy motioned that additions to the August 28. 1967 minutes should be submitted by Mayor Morrisons and Councilman Council-man Evan Gardner at the next regular re-gular meeting (Oct. 9). Mr. Hardy's motion was seconded by Councilman Council-man Barben and carried unanimous iy. Councilman Barben to!d the Chronicle Tuesday night that he didn't object to additions being made but that he wanted nothing deled from the minutes as read and approved by the council at the Sept. 11 meeting. Whether the additions are to be made a legal part of the Official Minutes of the meeting remain to to be seen. Permission wns granted to Mr. Former Hinckley Resident Dies George A.
