Show BOX ELDER NEWS, Brigham transferred the fish to a larger container of clear water and fed it, the next morning the fish was dead. Countless little fish, ducks, chicks, bunnies and other animals are given as prizes in carnivals or sold as seasonal gimmicks. Maybe a little fish doesnt mean much, but it is a tiny life and its death either produces sadness on the part of a child or produces an even worse callous attitude toward the life of small creatures. Yet, there are people who think that efforts of the Humane Society to outlaw such practices are silly and that efforts to upgrade animal shelters are a waste of money. There isnt room to keep a lost family pet or a stray for very long in the pound, because there are so many animals deserted when they become troublesome or their owners grow tired of them as novelties. The local Humane Society will have a booth downtown on Peach Days; drop by and find out more about them.

LeGalllene . Boy I wish Id never gotten involved reading about "time" the other day. Since then Im literally getting to be a "clockwatcher. Every night when I call it quits for the day I try not to think about all the things I didn't get done that day and then Im reminded what Goethe said, We always have time enough if we will use it right." On top of everything else, I heard last night the leaves in the canyons are already starting to change color. I can hardly believe it. I have a dozen things yet I wanted to get done before it got cold. last spring how ; Remember we had our furnaces on one day and the same week we turned our coolers on? well i guess it could happen again this late summer. So I guess wed better get going. I remember as Byron told us, "The busy have no time for SCRATCHPAD Just around town . . . there have never been so many people attend the Box Elder County Fair. Its hard to know how many were there since there isnt an official gate count, but just the parking indicated the large attendance. The Editor family vehicle was eight double rows north in the cow pasture after finding that parking extended clear to the highway on the south and as far north as one could see. Luckily, wed taken a box to pick up our exhibits or wed never have made it across the bumpty terrain with all the stuff in the dark. That brings up a point concerning entries from outlying communities . . . since there are fair representatives and other people who have to travel dally to the Fairgrounds, why cant items be registered at schools in local communities on the day prior to registration at the Fairgrounds? This is done in some other counties, and has never been a problem. Maybe it wouldnt work for such things as delicate baked goods or flower arrangements, but for most craft and homemaking items there wouldnt be much of a problem. Volunteers Volunteers to work with registrars in their home towns wouldnt be hard to find. Besides, its a real hassle and headache for the clerks at the Fair on registration day and would solve e some of that problem. The nicest people can be found volunteering their time for community celebrations. How many of us realize that if we had to rely on paid workers to build floats, or register fair exhibits, or run the pageants, or coach little league teams, or sit on committees planning events such as the County Fair or that the cost peach Days would be so prohibitive that many activities would cease? Say "thanks" to all those volunteers as you see them working next time. Young Son's experience at the carnival brings about the same old problem of offering live prizes, for he won a poor little d goldfish in a tiny bowl of water. Although he carefully kept his hand on the bowl all the way home and last-minut- blue-tinte- Group activities The subject of booths downtown for Peach days brings that same aspect of participation into the annual event. Maybe it doesnt seem that way to everybody, but to this writer the many booths and activities by planned organizations add a homey and festive touch to the celebration. When weve entertained guests for Peach Days, theyve always remarked on how nice it is that so many individuals and groups participate in making the day a big event. The window displays, flower show, art show, and the many candy sales, rummage sales, bazaars, food sales, and other booths all add to the fun of the day. that pressures from the carnival on "comfood sales by local peting doesnt change the local groups hometown flavor that enhances Peach Days and makes it an event that involves the support of hundreds of townspeople. Lets hope tears. Now it's time to pull up that old easy chair and lets find out what our friends and neighbors have been doing the past few days.
