The Amencan Legion Auxiliary met at the home of Margui ite Rocigeis last Wednesday evening. The meeting was called to order by the president, Maigurite Rodg-eiDiscussion was on the fall comention that is to be held here Jay Nielson, bishop of the Webin Salt Lake City, who grew up as a Blandingite among us, a son of Jense P. Nielson, was with us over the weekend, being in San Juan on business. We have heard about people having the guts to do bold or courageous things, but we were rather shocked the other day to hear about petrified guts. This, however, did not mean anything in the nature of human audacity, but the petrified entrails of a fossilized dynosaur among the big rocks of lower Recapture. It is claimed that these multicolored stones lack little of being gems. A d girl was born Friday to Mr. and Mrs. Lonnie Stevens. She is the second girl in the family. The main feature of the Third seven-poun- Ward meeting Sunday evening was the speech of LaMoine Jones, recently returned from a mission to California. Other interesting speakers were his father, Cardon Jones, his brother Nelson Jones, and his sister, Donna Jones. sister, Betty Jones, sang with a double trio. LaMoine gave a glowing account of his mission field in Northern California, and of Tim Perkins, who is still serving there. Park Guymon has gone to Salt Lake to bring his family. He was accompanied by his mother, Beth Guymon, and by hi3 brother Lawrence. Park is to live in his grandmothers home, since she is staying with others of her grandchildren. Ray and Grace Hunt are taking a trip to Flagstaff and are acby Alice Standfird companied who is going to visit her son. On a trip to the Aneth oil field four days ago, we were astonished at the tangled maze of roads and roads on which we got so fussed up and confused, we had to stop a road patrol and a3k where we were. We were not lost, just a little confused for an hour. We went through one of the big pumping stations where 75,000 barrels of oil are pumped out of San 'Juan County every day. A great network of pipes come to it from all directions as vein3 to the heart, and it sends their load away through an iron artery 16 inches in diameter. It sends it with a thousand pounds pressure, powerful enough to force through that artery every so often, a great steel device called the pig, a heavy object studded with stiff brushes to clean the accumulations from the walls . of the big pipe. f We were surprised at the growth of El Paso, just across the river. It has all been made since our last visit, a sizeable town, half of which is trailer homes, the other half neat dwellings, with a brave start made for something green to grow by each one of them. We wanted to have visited the big refining plant there, but we had squandered too much time on strange roads. As we crossed the big bridge I looked at the wide river bottom to the east, covered now with brush and young cottonwoods, and remembered my visit to the little town of Montezuma in 1883, when the people had their little group of log houses and their little farms on the north part of what is now the sandy bed of the river. I remembered the water wheels they had in the river, and the William Hyde family with whom missionaries with headquarters at Bozeman, Mon., about 25 miles north of Yellowstone Park, told his parents over the phone of how it affected things in Bozeman. He said it began with a terrifying noise, and the earth shook till walls were cracked and windows broken. He said many of the people injured in the paik were flown to the hospital in Bozeman. He said the trembling of the earth lasted off and on for three days in an experience he hopes never to go through again. Vet Bradford is getting around on crutches with his left t'out in a cast, though he savs no bones aie broken. His foot, was crbshed a week ago by one of the big water pipes which are being laid long some of our streets. This pin'iig system, intended to make a more satisfactory distribution of the water, is being covered in the trench a3 soon :u the trench is opened for it. Much of it is already done, and there is not t. be the annoyance anc danger of open trenches as hitherto with pipe-layin- g. The Third Ward party Monday evening began at five with the children under twelve years, about 150 of them, with a program and a dance following refreshments. The adult members of the ward met in the big hall at 7:30 where six long tables were soon loaded with good things to eat, and the dinner was followed by a lively the program framed around The Launching of the theme, Third Ward ' Satellite, presenting songs, music and good acting.

The football boys of the San Juan High, in their new uniforms, show keen appetite for the beginning of the big games, which are to be an entertaining feature of the fall season. Connie Shumway drove with Morgan Nielson and Mrs. Nielson to Salt Lake where, they met their son Johnnie, returning from mission in Australia. They came to Blanding Monday evening. - , A little party of friends at the home of Frost Black Sunday evening, report that Joe Hunt, who entertained them with the violin, has fully recovered from the handicap he has suffered since his airplane accident, and is as good or better . with the violin than he wa3 before, and thats good, period.

Cahoon, whe has rented and moved into the house from which Bruce N. Black has just moved, a house belonging to Bishop Kline Black. The Third Ward people are glad to have Bruce back among them, but they hate to lose the who have made many friends among us.

It didnt hurt the bridge, but it left us about to cry that so much water should race to such small purpose out of our dry country. At the Indian chapel Sunday morning the big attendance of Utes and Navajos, and especially the sizable class of children, afforded pleasant food for thought. To have known these people three quarters of a century, and to see the tremendous improvement they have made in that time, is to be assured that they are on the way up from their long sleep, and arc going to travel soon with the lead instead of in the tail of the big procession.
