In hopes that some may share with me the value of such an experience, Id like to briefly describe my feelings. It finally dawned on me recently that it is not the event so much as the people I enjoy at the fair. For the most part they seemed to be sturdy, g folks that were in a relaxed atmosphere socially rubbing shoulders with friends and neighbors also engaged in the normal tasks of forgetting out a living in honest and hard-workin- manners. responsible The various displays represent for the most part the best of what time, effort and the blessings of Providence can provide in theway of food, clothing and animals of various sorts and these new-fangle- two-wheele- d rs you'll fly a couple of blocks. Got a couple of bicycles the other day and the darn things have really caused some unusual experiences. Yours truly remembers when he was a kid and seeing grownups trying to ride bicycles. They always looked like a newborn moose trying to test their legs. That's the only way this penman can describe it. that's the way Z felt climbing aboard that bicycle for And the first time in over 10 years Riding down the street, ya always feel everybody's looking at you, waiting for you to crack up in the ditch or something. And hand brakes.. .that's another story in itself. Back in my day we didn't have those new tangled handbrakes.. .all Those tiny seats on a bumpy road are something else tool The kids were all excited about mom and dad's new bikes and wanted a ride on them. Little did they know it would be like being a passanger on Evel Knievel's motorcycle, jumping the grand canyon of the Snake.

Brigham City t Museum-Galler- y Deadline near for entries in art event YE OLE SAGE SEZ: So kids, don't laugh at grownups trying to ride bicycles. Pretty soon you're gonna be a grownup trying to ride a bicycle. Come ye artists is the call out to Brigham City area artists for the annual Peach Days Art festival, with the deadline for entries in the show slated Priday, Aug. 31, in order that works may be hung and judged before the celebration officially begins on Thursday, Sept 6. There will be prizes given in two divisions, with one area set aside for professional works and another for amateurs. A best of the show award will be presented with purchase price for the entry to remain in the permanent collection of the art facility. In each of the divisions, there will be first prize and two merit prizes in the categories of oil, watercolor, and photography. Directors of the contest state that other mediums such as culptury, charcoal, acrylics, etc., will be accepted for exhibit only and will be judged if a sufficient number are entered to establish a carieties. Most of the displays including the trade and equipment exhibited represent ways that persons can produce something of value and worth to others that is of comfort, convenience orother enhancement of the qulaity of life. In many ways the local county fair represents the good life that poets, philospphers and wary travelers dream about but often do not find in real life situations, simplay because they do not learn to appreciate the sweetness of honest toil amid the many illusions and fancies promoted by those who would, if they could, pass out happy pills free of charge other than complete dependence and devotion to them. The local county fair stands as a stark departure them the illusions of this world whereby some seek to disuade folks from the value of independence, honest and hard work at tasks that others can and do enjoy if they also learn to appreciate and respect the efforts of others around them. The scriptures suggest that happiness and joy comes from being anxiously engaged in worthwhile causes of worth and meriit to others as well as to ourselves. It may be that the harvest of souls will one day be much like a county fair, bringing joy to those who have diligently toiled and loved their tasks and empty dispair to those who toil not at all in behalf of others. leflectiaiie With Harvest af Talents" by month an af lha ladd Family ham Ulah, Artnaa nnd Califamia.
