Coldest temperatures of the current winter were recorded in Provo early Saturday morning, and weather fore-.- ; casters predicted it would be even colder Saturday night and this morning. . - There is an old sayip? which goes something likfe: "A . prophet is always without honor in his. own; country." It has come to mean, in the generally accepted sense, that a man might be famous all over the world but hed be just 'plain old Joe Doakes to the homefolks who wouldn't be at ., all impressed. J . Tlsft "hnmetnwn" instead of "country" and it will illus 4trate the following situation which was never morej forc- ihTv hroucht to mind than on a recent Sunday when we visited the home of Frank C. Robertson in Mapleton. Frank been our friend for some time and we have an immense f or his writings, but until we went to his home we wre a little guilty of the blase (that's means unimpressed to us peasants) attitude of the homef oik. But the thing that woke us up to Tiis real status was the sight of three bookshelves (among a dozen or so others) in his living room. We had read the statis-- tics. He has written nearly 150 western novels and no one knows how many short stories. Until then it was lust statistics to us. But when we saw three bookshelves, each at, least 10 feet long, filled solid with his books it became something ' more" than a statistic. It took tbrsight of those three booK shelves, at least 30 feet of books, packed tightly against one another to do it. And he has written them all. Many of them, his gracious wife told us, sold better in Great Britain than here, but they all sqjd well enough for a hardheaded pub lisher to publish them, and that's the final proof. And while were on the subject, we just finished his "Ram in the Thicket." It's seldom we read a book or a magazine that we can't lay down When bedtime Tolls around, but not that one. We sat up past midnight for .three nights until we finished it, For sheer power, interest and readability, we ve never read a better one. We telephoned our efficient Lehi correspondent, Mrs. Josephine Zimmerman, Wednesday for some help fn getting facts on a traffic accident in that part of the county. "I'd like to help you,' Jo replied, "but right nbw I'm standing by the door with my suit case, waiting for Cecil to take me on a more important assignment." Jo's "assignment" resulted in a pretty good scoop even though it was only a statistic: "Born Girl to Cecil and Josephine Seaton Zimmerman, Jan. 17, Amer- ' lean Fork hospital." auto-biosrranh- v. - -- When an automobile driven by one of the .general LDS church authorities collided with a coal truck on a Utah County highway the other day, who should turn up as the investigating officer but a highway patrolman who is an LDS bishop.

LYONS from 20 years of work as tendant at State hospital. at- State Hospital Worker Retires After 20 Years A Utah State hospital attendant, retired after 20 years of psychiatric work, said Saturday he feels, the present needs of the hospital are for expansion to reg, lieve increase in the number of attendants, technical staff and equipment to insure better care and more rapid recovery of the mentally ill. Arthur M. Lyons, 1183 N. 8th W., who started work at the hospital when only two physicians were on the staff and who has seen development in all phases of hospital activities take place, said that additional professional personnel to provide occupational and recreational therapy is a special need at this institution. The patient population at the hospital at the time of his employment was 900. Today the population tops 1250. Most of the advances in psychiatric care and treatment as well as improvement in working conditions for employes, he said, are of comparatively recent origin. Mr. Lyons was employed at the hospital Sept, 15, 1930 when he was 24 years of age. He served continuously in the capacity of attendant until his retirment Jan. 15. According to E. J. Storey, personnel director at the hospital, it is unusual for a man to stick to a job such as his for so long a period, and "denotes conscientious and intelligent service to patients. He has made a unique and outstanding contr bution to the welfare of his fellow men, Mr. Storey declared. his service, During Mr. Lyons has seen the completion and addition of two of the main hospital buildings, as well as several outbuildings. Mr. Lyons and his wife, Maud, have three sons and cne daughter Earl and John A., Provo; Mack A.
