It is always turkey time at Wilton Lemmons.) RUTH LITSTER DelRoy Brlnkerhoff and Steven Williams strike beginning to hurt in Emery Ive about gone crazy with him home. dont have five minutes to myself. There is too much men dont see. We never dreamed the strike would drag on this long. We thought two weeks would be all. The majority of us don't know what is In the contract. How can we know? I These comments are typical of the feelings of miners wives, now desparing of having a pay check before Christmas and tired of having hubby hanging around the house even if he is pouring the sidewalks, and fixing the gutters, and painting the kitchen and playing more with the children. The futurebecomes increasingly gloomy as the days go by and the strike is not settled, payments become due, food costs keep raising and the panic heightens. Welcome is the government move employing a top labor mediator to effect a compromise between the United Mine Workers and mine owners. The news that an agreement has been reached Sunday is cause for Thanksgiving, of lengthy re tape Now the problem remains before the miners return to work. For Thanksgiving well light a fire our new fireplace, laughed lovely Sharon Jensen, mother of four small child-re- n and wife of a miner out of work Her husband has worked for 18 months for Browning Coal mine as loader helper Since the strike he has helpied on his father's farm, putting the cows on the desert, finishing the threshing before joining Sharon facing the new fireplace with rock from the mountains and desert. The living room carpeting was laid halfway back to accomodate a large tarp covered with flat rocks of all sizes and shapes. Each rock was carefully held up for effect before being fastened to the wall with mortar. A professional mason laid the chimney outside and laid up the firebox and brick siding inside. The Jensens had gathered firebrick from an old kiln in Salt Lake, as well as scrouglng used brick here and there from tne dump, the old school house and from friends. in "VjC xWul'fc , M ' '"V Vi ,1 ian ill ig.V The razing crew is three ambitious miners on strike. InH All Browning Coal men. The young fattier told how he worked as a laborer for a contractor during the Memorial strike, the contractor paying laborers more than miners make. We dont really make as much as a lot of other trades.. The highest paid man Is a mechanic at $50 a day. Look how the strike Is affecting our lives and we have nothing to say. 95 of the miners have nothing to say. It wUl be the eastern miners who count most when the final vote Is given, Interjected Sharon. The young mother gathered her 4yr. old boy Into her arms. Im beginning to panic, she admitted. What scares me is not starving, but what were going to get them for Christmas? The Jensens own sheep, pigs, a milk cow, have raised their own potatoes and canned vegetables and fruit, but none of aiflflNWaiewi Cafe. Not so neat now. Luella Anderson was cheering them on. The plan is to build another cafe, so Luella can work. They were making good use of their time off from the mine to raze the building. An enormous hood over a cookstove was stUl In place in the kitchen. The chlllNovemberair pepped the work and livened the conservation. Dwaine said he thought Arnold Miller is a good president. He is doing a lot for safety. Thats the main thing. There was more talk from the men about more benefits, higher wages and the big shots doing what they wanted to do Ther were rumors about a railroad coming. Talk about Consolidated Coal doing more test drlling. Emery could certainly stand a shot In the system. Folks in Emery are beginning to prepare for the influx. that is what you put under a Christmas on Christmas eve. BuUding the fireplace is a positive note in their ever mounting worry over Christmas for the children. A hook for each stocking has been installed inbetween the rock facings. Six hooks, one for each child and parent. Maybe a spare or two just in case... Installing a fireplace in their home adds up to a king size project. A hole had to be cut into the room and braces installed to hold the weights. A rock hearthstone rolled in end for end on 2 by 4s is large enough to accomodate the entire family. For the first time the Jensens have a fireplace on which to hang the stockings on the hooks specially instaUed. unless fathers soon returns to work the stockings will be scantily stuffed. Of the Union mines in Emery, only Browning uncommitted to power plants fueling could offer coal to ease emergency needs. The call to return to the mine was given Monday. Bronlng is worl ing3days a week to supply homes, hospitals and schools. tree nvm Mjdtt l;rl I KAREN JENSEN fm beginning to panic., cafe soon be new The old Delbert Jensen is building a fireplace while the strike Is on. Now that Browning is working 3 days a week, the stockings will be fatter. L Emery used to be the biggest town in Emery County with a high school, hotel, saloon, and four service stations. This building here we're tearing down used to be the grocery store, I used to steal eggs and come down here and cash 'em. Worth about a nickel in them days, quipped Rex Addley, tipple operator at The storeBrowning Coal for 24 years. keeper used to put eggs over a cigar box with a light in It to test for freshness. Rex Addley, whose home is along Emery town main street ( his wife runs beauty shop In the home,) a big help at the grocery store these troubled days. The Addleys son, Tracy, has been inside mechanic at Browning for two years. They dont give metopwages, all they give me Is a bad time, jokes Tracy as he and his fattier and Dwaine Anderson pitched Into the tearing down of the Neet No postage! No delivery Emery County Postmasters today reminded customers that effective Sunday, Nov. 17, the U.S. Postal service intends to discontinue delivering mail on which there is no postage. The postmasters said the new policy was Instituted because of the high cost being Incurred by the Postal service in its attempt to deliver such mail. Officials estimate that such costs total approximately $18 million annually. Ih announcing the new policy last month, Postmaster General E.T. Klassen it is unfair to burden the vast said, majority of matters with costs created by the few who mall without prepayment of postage.- - After Nov. 17 letters matted without postage will be returned to sender if there is a return address, or to the dead letter office, instead of being delivered to the address as postage due mall as has been the custom. Postal Officials will attempt to find the sender of unpaid mall and return It for a slight fee, if there Is no return address. Naturally we realize that someone could inadvertently forget to put a stamp on a letter or that a stamp could come off prior to cancellation, so we urge mailers to be sure to include a correct return address on their mail, the Postmasters said.
