UT 84713 Home And School Are Vital Links By Lily Eskelsen I must have been in third grade. My little brother was sitting on my lap. My little sister was sitting on my big sister's lap. My other brother was using the shelf at the back window as abunkbed. Mymiddle sisterwas complaining about getting squished. Six kids in the back seat. The groceries that wouldn't fit in the trunk were crammed in the front passenger seat We were ready to go home. Mom always counted her change, but this time, she waited until she was in the car. "She gave me a quarter too much. I'll be right back." We moaned and groaned and whined and suffered the eternity of the less than five minutes it must have taken her to run in and out again. We teased her all the way home about the quarter. "Gol, Mom. It's just a quarter." "Hey! The police are after us. They found out about the quarter!" "Did they give you a reward for returning the quarter?" I recently mentioned this episode toMom. Shedoesn'trememberitatall. I, on the other hand, have never forgotten it. Not as some profound turning point in my childhood, but as a curious memory. I think I've finally found the differences in our remembrances. I can't remember three words of 1 8 years of scoldings. But I remember the quarter. It was weird for her to worry about it, but it made an impression on me. I guess I thought it way cool. Mom doesn't remember the quarter because it wasn't anything unusual for her. Just daily, standard operating procedure. In describing Mom I'd have to that she enjoys taking (a trait say to her daughters), her on passed house is too clean (a trait which skipped a generation), and she's the most honest person I know. The lasting lessons parents leave their children are not the lessons we lecture. They are the lessons we live. Greenwood PUP Camp Pioneer Markers Reviewed by Rita Overstreet The Greenwood Camp of the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers held their April meeting at the home of Rita Overstreet. There were thirteen members present with Loretta Evans as Mildred Atkin led in singing "Come, Come Ye Saints" and Fern Williams offered the prayer and blessing on the luncheon. The meeting was conducted by President Leah Glenn, who led the Pledge of Allegiance to our flag. She announced a meeting at 3 p.m. that day with the County Commissioners and Travel Council to discuss the future of our DUP Museum and the Courthouse, which many members later attended. Leah read a letter from Ruth Holt regarding the convention to be held in Parowan May 14th. Many plan to attend from our camp. After remaining business was discussed, Fern Williams gave the Salt Lake DUP Museum report on "The Art of Native Americans." She told of the beautiful Indian artifacts to be seen at the museum, well worth a visit from all of us. Lesson leader Margery Twitch-ell- 's lesson was on "Markers Placed the by Daughters of Utah Pioneers." From the beginning of the organization in 1901, a major purpose of the Daughters of Utah Pioneers has been to identify and preserve the historic places that were a part of the drama of Utah's founding. In keeping with this important mission, 473 markers have been placed up until the April lesson's writing. A booklet published by the DUP gives specific locations for the majority of these markers. Marie Gale continued the history of her family and ancestors. This was of great interest to all present Meeting adjourned until Tuesday May 3rd which will be a camp meeting followed by cleaning of the DUP Museum at the Old Courthouse.

One photographer captured the drama of the linking of the Continental Railroad at Promontory Summit. His golden spike photo has been reproduced in many history books ever since. Another photographer recorded the Great Depression in the 1930's and the poverty and despair among mining and farm families. Utah has also been a favored background for some three hundred motion picturesThe town of Kanab and the surrounding areas were used for many pictures. I remember when MGM made the movie "Westward the Women" down there, with Robert Taylor as the star. My sister Norma was one of the women in the picture. She had a small part, with Robert Taylor scolding her for not "greasing the wagon wheels." It was exciting when our family visited on the set at that time! John Ford, the director, used Monument Valley for the movie "Stagecoach." John Wayne became a Hollywood legend after starring in one movie while shooting and riding his way across Utah's deserts, canyons, and mountains. In 1969, Paul Newman and Robert Redford made "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" here. Some of the scenes in "The Ten Commandments" were made in Utah. Also, Utah was the setting for the Grizzly Adams series in the 1 970's. Utah, with its spectacular scenery, is still a favorite place for many great artists and photographers.

However, Tuesdays and Fridays are not holidays at the Festival, only day; d when this play by a friend and rival of Shakespeare will be seldom-produce- produced. "We haven't had a lot of people call concerned that we were closed on those nights," said P.J. Rockwell, box office manager, "but we have had enough that we are concerned thai people might be missing a rare opportunity to see this hilarious comedy.' "Just to make sure that everybody is clear on what could become confusing," added R. Scott Phillips, managing director, "we are emphasizing that The Shoemaker's Holiday plays every Tuesday and Friday at 8:30 in the Adams Shakespearean Theatre; and good seats are available for every night, as well as for performances of all plays this summer." The Festival presents world-clatheatre June 23 through September 3, every day except Sundays and this summer is aiso presenting Shakespeare's As You Like It, Love's Labour's Lost, and Richard III, as well as Georges Feydeau's A Flea in Her Ear and Tennessee William's A Streetcar named Desire.
