Show Universal Microfilming Corp, ox 2608 B City i Utah tlt Lk Nephi, It is often said, that in the summer its time to prepare for winter. With this thought in mind, perhaps it is not too early for the residents of this community to begin looking ahead to 1976. September of that year will bring the 125th anniversary of the date the first permanent settlers entered the area. Annually, for the past several years, the anniversary date has been noted with the Anniversary Banquet and Homecoming held on the nearest Saturday to September 21, the date on which the first settlers were supposed to have set up housekeeping in the valley. As far as we've been able to determine, no exact date was ever established as to the settling of the valley, but the 21st is as near as anyone could come. reg broom sweep clean, but an old broom knows where the dirt is. A new reg From a recent issue of Robins Reader we have selected this masterpiece: History is the running account of the doings of remarkable people, the achievements of the worlds great leaders, scien- tists, inventors, writers, innovators the headline people of their times. But today, as in historys yesterdays, there are unnumbered remarkable people among the worlds unremarkable. They are the people who are meeting lifes vicissitudes with guts! They are the anonymous men and women striving desperately to keep their families alive and their own Many are facing hardships which are new to them and which they have neither the experience nor means to handle. Yet they manage! Among these unremarkable people are countless who are engulfed in sadness and heartbreak. And others compelled by family loyalty to abandon private hopes and ambitions. And morale-shakin- g people who are facing health situations without moaning mentally courageous men and women who, astonishingly, are summoning up faith to match their fear. You probably know some of these people. Perhaps you are one of them. self-respe- reg An interesting fact : The Russian government recently published the first phone directory in over 15 years for Moscow.

The harvest is normally in full swing by July 25, the County Agent pointed out. It appears." Jones said, that the harvest will be average or slightly below. The lack of moisture late in 1974 prevented the winter wheat from sprouting and growing as it normally does, Jones said, and the outlook for a decent crop was very bad early in the spring. Ross Harper of Levan, one ot the growers of wheat on the Levan ridge area west and north-wes- t of Levan, also reported that the outlook for the crop was "about average" or slightly below. I didnt think we had mjch of a chance for a good crop early in the year, but the late winter storms, plus the heavy moisture and Social Service program to be aired July 31 public hearing will be held at Manti on July 31 at the Sanpete County Courthouse conerning a proposed social services plan for the stale of Utah.

Locally, the irrigation water situation remains very good The wells belonging to the Nephi Irrigation Company have been turned on since early m July to increase the water flow to the entire system. Nephi City oil trials report that the flow from the City springs has increased during July, and that an ample supply of water is available at the present time. Water from the city well at second north and second west has been turned into the irrigation system, but the How from the springs has been sufficient that this water has not had to be placed into the culinary system. In order to equalize water pressure throughout the community, sprinkling at the cemeteries, park, and golf course has been restricted to the late evening and night hours so that the storage tanks would be sufficiently full to take care of the community's needs throughout the daytime hours, says Evan Frampton, City Manager.

The low incidence of Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever does not justify giving the vaccine to the general public, however persons whose occupation results in repeated exposure to ticks (sheepherders, forester, etc.) should be given the vaccine. Ticks cling to grass or brush from March through September and once they get on a persons legs, they crawl upwards looking for a place to attach. There are four things to be done which can decrease the chances for tick bites. 1. Wear proper clothing with tight cuffs and pant legs tucked into boots or with elastic bands around the pant cuffs. 2. Inspect frequently for ticks on the scalp, neck, sleeves, belt trousers, and top of the sock. 3. If a tick is found, remove him gently with forceps as close to the head as possible. If you must remove the tick with your fingers, clean the tips of your fingers afterwards because it is possible to become ill by handling infected ticks.
