A V Everyone wants to get into the ad, as the saying goes. Weve been plagued recently (as is always the case when you are serving the public, probably) with letters and comments telling us what we are doing wrong in running the newspaper. This week has been dies in Magna Funeral services were held Tuesday in .Magna for Paul Niels Christensen, 29, a former county resident, who died Friday in a Salt Lake hospital. Mr. Christensen was bom overly productive. We ran across a little item in tiie Morgan paper, which he picked up from a paper in Montana, which we thought was rather interesting. The article went like so: Operating a newspaper in a small town is a fascinating business. It is much different than journalism on the metropolitan newspaper. Anything we write irritates some individual or group. For instance, even a glowing story written about a wedding can cause difficulty with a subscriber. Some time ago we ran a story in our society section telling about an attractive bride and her handsome husband. ' ' A subscriber who knew the newlyweds stormed into my office, shook the paper in my face and said: "You liar! How can you call a 175 pound girl attractive and that no good drunken bum rite married handsome? Why that marriage won't last 30 days!" But perhaps the classic in my career was the newspapering cold, snowy night last January when the telephone at home rang at 11 oclock that night. A woman across town complained that she didnt get her papa. I climbed into my topcoat, put on my overshoes, called a taxi, went to the office, picked up a rode out to her house, ed at the door, handed her the paper, and she sneered: There's probably nothing in it anyhow.

A concentrated search of a large section of the desert east of Huntington and Castle Dale was initiated last Sunday evening, when three young men from Huntington failed to return to their homes at dark, after a jaunt into the desert by pickup. The three boys, all 16 years of age, were Garth Kinder, son of Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Kinder, of Huntington; his cousin, Randy Bartlett of Salt Lake City, and Ernie Wilson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Wilson, Law- 7V. ,.71 y Paul Christensen $ '4W J rence. The trio left home shortly after noon Sunday. When they failed to return in the evening, Mr. Kinder drove into the desert but could not locate the truck. He called the county sheriff, John M.

HONOR STUDENTS v boys. At midnight, the sheriff notified members of the county jeep patrol, with Walt Reid, Orien Scovill (captain of the posse), Joe Jeffs, Wayne and LeGrande Wilberg answering 4? 5 Wayne and LeGrand sighted a small blaze south of the water tanks on Buckhom flat, and unon investigation found the Bartlett youth asleep near a small fire. The boy told the searchers that the three had traveled to the wedge, and had started hiking down the canyon. The two boysj decided to hike on down to thej bridge, and the Bartlett boy was to return to the truck and meet them at the bridge later, When he reached the truck, he found that the key had been left on and the battery was dead. Unable to start the vehicle, he started hiking out, stopping to build a fire and rest after he reached the flat. The other searchers were notified by radio, and the hunt was centered around the San Rafael river for the other two boys. When they had not arrived at the bridge by Monday morning, additional posse members were alerted, with Rex, Craig and Bert Funk, Keith Peterson, Cloyd Fillmore and Erftest and Red Wilson all participating. A group started up the river in search of the boys. Some distance up stream the searchers found tracks where the boys had turned around and started back up to where the truck had been parked. The hunt was then swung bade to the top of the bluff, where they found the youths walking out at about 2 p.m. Monday afternoon. They stated that they had spent the night in the canyon by the river, without matches, food or water. In commenting on the search, the sheriff again reminded persons going into the ,desert to leave some word as to where they plan to go. This will narrow the search area, should some trouble prevent them from returning on time. reunion All former students of Huntington high schol, or North Emery high school are invited to attend a reunion to be held Saturdav.
