It was not in the nature of a contest, but a display of the accumulations of music for the year. Reeva Redd and Vere Densley the High School directors led the representatives from here- - The adjudicators of the festival were from the music faculty of the B. Y. Meeting The PTA meeting held Monday evening in the grade school build ing, is considered important for a number of reasons: The exhibition of local art, the first of its kind for Blanding, was astonishing and delightful, both in quality and quantity It was all so good it seems unfair to mention any one in particular- Mrs. Foster had ten or more samples of art on display; Clyde Thompson had a picture of the bridges and one of the monuments, and Bruce Hurst displayed fine specimens of photography. Much credit is due to the artists and the sponsors of the exhibition. Mrs- - Maybel Wright of Monticello gave a film lecture on tuberculosis, and Dr. Bourne answered questions on cancer- - A musical number was played by the grade school band; a solo was sung by De Ann Burtenshaw ,and a solo by Janette Wells.

Lloyd Bayles and Clay Conway were given honorable mention and a fine trophy bearing their names. - N-Th- - Postmaster Lists Ways for Patrons to Help Postmaster Lorin Hawkins says he is required by the postal department to give more and better service in the same number of hours- - He has no complaint to make at the postal system, or at the public, he is pleased with the way he has been dealt with, but the required way of dealing more efficiently with the public is de- pendent on the cooperation of every patron of the office. By cooperating they will not only help to make a more satisfactory office, but they will get their mail quicker and with less danger of it going astray. The matter in which he wants cooperation, very simple and easy, is to have all their mail come to their box number. Everybody should have a box the office has plenty of boxes- Those who do not have a box, and are here for too short a time to justify getting a box, should have their mail come to them general delivery. With the box numbers, or the general delivery on every letter, the great mass of mail, first, second and all classes, can be classified more accurately and in much less time than it takes to read every name, and have that only as the guide to the box. With the box number on the mail, it can be at once seper-ate- d into different divisions, and with the mail for one division it is easy to place the letters in their place in that division. Please cooperate for the good of yourself and everybody concerned- - FRIDAY, Legislative Council Feted; Dr. Porter APRIL 25, 1958 CHAMBER GROUP MONTICELLO Reports on Trip to View Grand Gulch The legislative Council from Salt Lake went here Friday visiting the Aneth Oil Fields. They had their wives and children along to make up a company of about forty. They were accompanied to the Oil Fields by rhe Blanding Chamber of Commerce, who banqueted them in the evening at Chriss Roundup with about seventy sitting at the tables- They seemed to be much taken up with the country. With them was Chet Olsen of the State Parks. He is interested in certain beauty-spot- s in San Juan: The Needles, Hammond Canyon, Arch Canyon, Grand Gulch and other places, and expects to be back with a company to visit Grand Gulch about the last of the monthWith a keen desire to visit Grand Gulch and know for himself just what it is like before that investigating party comes with Chet 'Olsen, Dr. Norwood Porter, president of the Blanding Commercial Club made an unusual and rather daring trip all by himself He had Gene Blickenstaff drive along with him to Kane Gulch where he left his car, and Gene took him on around and down to Redhouse, near to the head of Red Canyon, and from there off to the southeast as far as he could drive towards Collins Gulch- - Gene turned back from there, and the doctor, with a sixty pound pack went afoot down the canyon to the bottom of Grand Gulch. They had started from Blanding at daylight, or before, and he got to the bottom of the gulch at ten in the forenoon. He spent four nights and part of five days working his way through twists and turns of the n up to where he had left his car, which he reached Friday afternoon. When he met and he was spoke to a truck-drive- r, startled at the sound of his own - - voice which he had not heard since he said Adios to Gene. He says it is a most wonderful place, and his trip there was about the most enjoyable five days of his life- - He saw ancient ruins, and pillers, awesome pinnacles rearches, and one "Shangrila gion in a side canyon shut off from the rest of the world by a of the high side walls. He cave-isaw deer, and the tracks of two cougars, one of them very large. In a sixty-pounpack he had his and other refres-mentbed, a shovel, a pick, hatchet, hunting knife, pistol. Clinometer and rope- He found use for everything but the rope. He found some islands, that is, high buttes in the middle of the gulch where it had crooked into itself, and the bridge it made had fallen in. Sixty years ago we went from the mouth of the Collins down the gulch to Slickhorn Trail; now we will not be content till we go from Collins up to Caine. n d s, - Crude Oil Flows Thru Completed Pipeline Completion of the new $50 million Four Corners Pipe Line was announced last week by R.
