They are also proposing a wastewater treatment plant in the southeast corner of the property and have suggested that outfall to Lehi's Dry Creek be constructed to handle the effluent. According to the developer's Master Sewer Plan, "the wastewater treatment plant is the preferred option for handling south area flows due to the topography and costs of connecting to existing treatment facilities in either Utah or Salt Lake What: on water When: Where: Development in Draper.

Although literally dry for much of the year, Dry Creek runs directly through Lehi, including Lehi Elementary School as well properties on its way to Utah Lake. "We need to go on record against this proposal," said Collins. "This public hearing deals with the location of vari- ous culinary facilities. That assumes there must be facilities on the other end.

Reporting to the city council in the Citizen Input time at the council meeting, Guest said that water started coming into his 'basement two weeks ago at the rate of about two inches per day; he has lived in the home for four years without any problem. "I've lost f of the square footage of my home," he said. ' Councilmember Frances Comer asked city engineer Lorin Powell about the possibility of a leak in the area in Pioneer Estates, part of the Sunset subdivision, but was concerned about the city's position regarding the current litigation. After city attorney Ken Rushton suggested that checking the area near Guest's home would not be a problem for the city, Comer felt that it would be prudent for the city to check for the existence of a leak. "If there's anything we can one-hal- do, we will do," Mayor Ken Greenwood told Guest. Arva Bone devoted to preserving Lehi's Pioneer heritage By Julie Loveridge "People don't believe me when I tell them my grandfather is Bishop David Evans," says Arva Bone, with a note of ancestral pride in her voice, "but he is." One of two remaining living grandchildren of Lehi's pioneer leader and a lifelong resident of Lehi herself, Arva carries pioneer blood in her bones and devotion to pioneer history in her heart. That devotion shows when a enters her home. person Immediately one is surrounded by bronze sculptures of pioneers (the artistic renderings of her grandson Phil Nebeker), paintings depicting pioneers on her walls, and stacks of books containing pioneer stories and histories on her shelves. Mrs. Bone began teaching at Lehi Elementary during the. early part of World War II, when women stepped in to take over jobs vacated by men called to defend the nation. Prior to . that time, says Bone, married women were not allowed to teach. During her teaching career,- she claims to have had opportu- Born: Parents: Nov. 10, 1912 .

She retired 21 years ago in 1977 after touching the lives of Lehi children for 32 years. Her school room with it's geraniums and African violets in the windowsills, is remem- bered with fondness by many Lehi residents. Bone says she still gets stopped by former students who want to introduce her to their own children. She confides one of her wish es is to get all her former students into one big room with name plates. Though she sometimes doesn't recognize them, she says she has never forgotten them. When orienting student teachers, Bone would counsel, "Teaching is not easy. You don't need to be mean, but you need to let (your students) know you're not one of them. Be a friend, but not n pal. They need to know you're there to teach." And that was the way she taught. She recalls the time when she had a special treat to give her students. Before the class went to recess, she asked them to clear their desks and not leiive anything behind. In the emptied room, she placed napkins and a treat of homemade cathedral candies at each place. Three desks, however, had been left with pencils or paper on the top. When the students ' returned, all sat down to enjoy her surprise except the three who failed to follow instructions. Mrs. Bone overheard one of them whisper, "Next time Mrs. Bone tells me to do something, I'll do it." "After they learned their lesson," Arva chuckled, "I took them aside and made sure they each received a treat as well." Following that experience, she indicated they were each much better at following instructions. Though Bone is retired from formal teaching, she has never stopped teaching. She willingly shares her memories and experiences with anyone who wants to learn. A member of the Evansville Camp of the Daughters of Utah Pioneers (DUP), Bone continues to teach, this time about pioneers, as she gives lessons to her "camp. For a number of years, she also taught lessons to the DUP county board. 5 - tv r Her teaching doesn't stop there, either. Bone's home has become a place where adults come to learn today. She tutors in the Relief Society literacy program, and calls her current student a "dear friend whom I have learned much from." "You can't help somebody," she says, "but you grow yourself."
