Road officials. Karold D. Westring reported that Councilmen meeting with the Road Commission were very well pleased with their report. State officials are now seeking federal aid in the project and the work may be done in the near future. City officials have asked the state to widen, drain, raise and pave the road, pointing out that nothing but upkeep on the road has been accomplished since the 1920's. Since it is the entrance to Lehi's main business district, they have asked the State to place the project on Mayor Frank Sharp reports the meeting has been called to discuss proposed flood control measures in American Fork Canyon and on Boxelder Peak above Alpine. priority.

More water will be needed when the sewer system goes into operation. Mayor Sharp said the State plans to open the old irrigation well near the John Zimmerman residence in order to install testing equipment there. The well will be opened and a small house built over it to hold recording equipment which will chart the rise and fall of water in the well over a two-yeperiod. The information will affect the approval or rejection of well applications in the future, since it will show the condition of Lehi's underground water supply. ar Happiness is spiritual, born therefore it cannot exist alone, but requires all mankind to share it.

Born In LeM, A Daughter of John Woodhouse Mrs. Anderson was born in Lehi, February 4, 1866, a daughter of John and Emma Smith Thomas Woodhouse. Their home was located on the corner at Second West and First North. In her history Mrs. Anderson states that her schooling began at age four and she continued in the Lehi schools. Much practical education in the way of cooking, sewing and the many activities carried on in the home at that time was included. Wool raised on the family flock was sheared, carded, washed, spun into yarn, woven into cloth and made into clothing. Flax was also grown and converted into linen through similar processes. Lights were usually candles, home made of tallow and Mrs. Anderson was married In the Logan Temple, December 3, 1884, to Brigham J. Anderson. He passed away some years ago. Their family included five boys and three girls. Her early training in cooking was brought into use as a gainful occupation in her later life. She cooked for "boarders" when the Lehi sugar factory was built and later moved to Lincoln, Idaho, bees-wa- RACHEL ANDERSON of friends and relatives and plans to greet them on her birthday, Although during the afternoon. unable to continue the fine handwork for which she is widely noted, since her illness, she has of Truth and Love It is unselfish; x.

An appeal for funds will be made during the month to help reach the goal of $50,000 hoped for in Utah. In this area a total of $3,343.90 was given to the Heart Fund last year in Utah County with Mrs. Marguerite Smith serving as Lehi chairman of the drive, and it is hoped the donations to the 1956 Heart Fund will exceed this amount. "The diseases of the heart and circulatory system account for more deaths each year in the United States than all other causes combined," Dr. Peterson pointed out. "Because the Utah Heart Association is pledged to conquer this problem the Heart Fund Campaign unquestionably merits the support of every think- ing citizen." "It is now an established fact that some of the heart diseases can be prevented, a few can be cured, and almost all cases can be helped by proper treatment especially after early diagnosis," he continued. "This is the result of research research of the character that is supported by the Heart Fund. "There are three main areas of research in which our investigators are working rheumatic fever, hardening of the arteries and high blood pressure. These take top priority inasmuch as they are responsible for more than 90 per cent of all heart disease. "Thanks to scientific research, rheumatic fever, often the forerunner of rheumatic heart disease, now may be classed as a preventable disease," Dr. Peterson pointed out. "We have but to apply presently existing knowledge In order to make, it a rare disease. "We have every reason to feel confident and hopeful that other significant victories are in the offing," he said. "We know that no medical problem is necessarily If we give beyond solution. medical science the support it requires and deserves, it is well within the realm of possibility that many if not all of the major laycee Car Wash Project Aids Polio Fund Drive High in County Lehi is one of only two Utah The Lehi Jaycees braved chilly County cities to receive a "pro- weather Saturday to raise money visional approval" on it's drinking the current Polio Drive by for to a report from water, according cars. the Utah State Health Depart- washing Cold weather caused them to i ment delay starting the car wash until The report showed that 17 Utah around 11 a. m., and by 6 p. m.
