Letter to the Editor, Several have people requested that comments I made at the Beaver County School Board meeting on March 5, 1996, be made public, so, here they are. I wish to emphasize that these remarks are my -- own, they reflect my own opinions, okay? So this is what I said. This is what I believe. To make life worth living, a person has to have a sense of history, a sense of beauty, a sense of responsibility. We are all linked in a human Each generation must chain. guard the precious heritage that has been handed down to it. Each younger generation must then, in turn, safeguard that heritage and pass it on to its own children. This is how all the finer things of life are preserved. Recently I read an incident in a book (Hard Ground, by James W. Hall). In the incident a real estate developer was going to tear down a group of historic homes and build a shopping mall on the property. He turned to the girl who opposed the move and said something like, "My plan will bring money, jobs, and new experiences to the young people, what will you plan bring, Marguarite?" The girl who wanted to save the buildings waited a moment and then answered, "my plan give the young people heroes, can help them remember their roots, remember their own heroes." (End of quote.) You know, these men who built the Old Beaver High School were some of our own heroes. Back in 1917 they took it upon themselves to build the will most beautiful high school in Southern Utah. Beaver was just another little town, The high school put it on the map. ask each of And so you Board Members. Wouldn't you rather go down in history as one who preserved this building, who preserved beauty, honored a heritage? Wouldn't you rather go down in history as one who saved the work of heroes? Isn't that how you'd rather be remembered, rather than as one who destroyed it? said. And that's what I That's what I believe.

The limits of my patience. And the more he pushes, the more I want to wrap my arms around him and make him my little boy again, and not allow him to make decisions thai may be wrong decisions, and tell him he'll be happier if he only does what I tell him to do if for no other reason .than because I said so and I'm his mother for heaven's sake.

By high school, we look behind us, and they will no longer follow just because we said so. We have to convince. We have to persuade. We have to motivate. We begin to climb a mountain. They don't want to follow. It looks too hard. But they come. Some because we encourage them and tell them fly. The wings we give them will take them anywhere they want to go. Anywhere but back to us. And they will never see that their flight is the result of what happens when push comes to love. , New Books Beaver, Utah PTA Elementary announced today that it will host a Scholastic Book Fair on March Belknap over 100 publishers.

Well, Super Tuesday.... .... is over and it looks like the the contenders for president will be Clinton vs Dole. And you say we have the freedom of choice. It's like choosing between a migraine or a tooth ache. It's a shame that politicians will do or say anything to get elected and then after the election it's business as usual. It seems like it's the person with the deepest pockets that gets elected, and the cabinet is made up of major contributors and persons who are due favors. What we need are presidential advisors that are from the "common folks", the less fortunate, the ones that have to work for an existence (not a living). We don't need any college grads that studied "poor" or "unemployed" in school. Then maybe the next president can get a true outlook on America and not a bunch of watered down statistics. marlow Dr. Keith D.
