No Anyone want to buy a good used Forbiseder? That was a question asked last week in a classified ad in the PROGRESS. The same advertisement has been published in several newspapers throughout the United States, as a means of testing the readership of the classified section. So, as you may have guessed, the ad was a hoax. Even the phone number which was listed in the ad, which was not a listed number, in the phone directory, was a put up deal. The response from the advertisement was outstanding, though. Dozens of calls came in with a variety of comments and questions. Several people called the Progress office making inquiries about it, stating that they had looked through the phone bock, and could not find the number listed. They wanted to know who had such an item for sale, but had not called the number listed. One person calling the number listed, after asking a few questions, (and the answers to the questions were very obscure, since there is no such thing as a forbiseder, to our knowledge), stated that it sounded like just what she needed. Too bad it was already sold. Another caller, being told tlhe forbiseder was already sold, insisted that they be notified if the first party did not take it for some reason, because they sure wanted one. The paper was no more than on the street Thursday morning, when we received a call at the 'Progress office, asking what the darn thing was. The lady said that her neighbor had called her and asked if she had ever heard of one. We would like to apologize to those who took the time to call and inquire about the ad. We appreciate their interest in the classified section of the paper, and promise them that if they continue to use this service, theyll get some good buys, with no more Forbiseders. It proves a point, too, we feel. That is, if you want to get in touch with a large number of persons that are potential buyers for what ever item you might want to sell, or potential sellers of items you want to buy, it can best be done through a classified ad in the Progress. that It truly said that about the time you struggle up even with the Joneses, they has been We received a nice little package through the mail the other day from Utah State University The award was given in honor of our having one of in Utah the Best Boners weekly newspapers during the past year.

Peacock, former Emery residents, was killed instantly Thursday of last week, in Los Angeles, Calif. He and two other men were measuring on a street, when an automobile hit Mr. Peacock and killed him instantly. Mr. Peacock is the father of one daughter. His funeral was held Monday, February 27, in Los Angeles. Health clinic dates reviewed Mrs. Maurine Nielson, county health nurse, again reminded residents of the health clinics to be held in the county during the coming week Beginning March 6, Hunting-toresidents will be offered the clinic services each Monday morning, with Cleveland and Elmo being served Monday afternoon.

The percentages) vary on different snow courses, from 50 of normal at Wrigley Creek on the Ferron drainage, to a low cf 33 in Upper Joes Valley, on the Cottonwood drainage. Although no figures are presently available, as to the estimated runoff on the tributaries of the San Rafael River, an extremenly meager flow is anticipated. Ground moisture, which fell during th fall months, much of which was absorbcould ed into the watersheds, the outlook possibly brighten somewhat, but with less than 50 of the average water storage in .the snow cover, prospects arent too bright.

Nutrition week on field trip The geology class at North set in county -- Emery high school, instructed by Lynn Peacock, is studying the structures of the earths crust. The region surrounding the school provides rich opportunity for studying faults and folds in the rocks. Tuesday, February 28, the class took a field trip in the Huntington Canyon area. Students observed an anticline and several faults. They saw where an oil company had drilled a well on the anticline and considered the reasons for locating the well where it is. Along a fault they measured the distance that one of the earths layers had slipped past another. They made various sketches and plotted the location of the structures on a geologic map. Classroom preparation for the field trip included examination of a clay model of an actual fold in the rocks near the school, with wooden experimentation fault-bloc- k models, 1 and confrom struction of geologic maps. Its the Food You Eait That Counts. This is ,the slogan for the state-wid- e nutrition week, March 5 to 11, which the Utah Nutrition Council is conductducting.
