Salina Lions Told Importance Of Community Planning Organization Sevier County Agent, Lee Guymon, and Dr. William DeHart, professor of sociology, and on the staff of the U.S.U. Extension Service, met Wednesday night of last week with the Salina Lions Club. Dr. DeHart addressed the Comgroup on the subject, munity Organization and PlanHe told of the early ning. settling of Utah, and the extensive planning that had been made prior to the time the Morin o n pioneers moved West, stating these early plans had been carried out to the finest detail, and accounted for the excellent lay-oof cities today. Dr. DeHart stressed the importance of organizations within a city working together for a common goal of improvements, pointing out the good derived when all the people were represented. Through representation and activity, everyone becomes interested, and projects become a reality, he said. Talking on the problem of the younger generation having to go to other areas to seek employment, he stated the potential of each community should be studied, and then plans laid to create means whereby the youth can remain in their home towns. He warned against the balance of power being placed in inthe hands of a power-drun- k dividual, stating such a person could well destroy the world with the present-da- y scientific developments. In closing, Dr. DeHart offered his assistance in organization and planning for the future in Salina. ut Deer Trend Study Made On Black Mountain Sunday School Convention Held Sunday In Salina work, motivat- Departmental ing problems and various phases of Sunday School work, were the main topics discussed at the Sunday School Convention held in Salina on March 16th. F. J. Gurney, Stake Superintendent of Sunday Schools, presided. The convention was well attended, with representatives of 21 Stakes in the area present. The session at 9 a.m. was opened with a general assembly in the North Sevier High School auditorium. Sunday School representatives who spoke at all sessions were Harold A. Bent, assistant in the General Board; Lynn Richards, General Superintendent, and Florence Allen, assistant teacher in the General Sunday School Board, all of Salt Lake. There were four sessions and departmental meetings during the day. A film was shown at the afternoon session entitled Feed My Sheep, which pictured the excellent objective in the Sunday School work. Serving on the Stake Sunday School Board with Mr. Gurney are counselors Merrill Thompson and Osmer Nielson. Evan Nielsen, first counselor in the Beaver Stake Sunday School, was in Salina, Sunday to attend the Sunday School convention. He was accompanied by Mrs. Robert Christensen, s member in the board, and by Mrs. Nielsen and children. While in Salina,' they were dinner guests at the home of Mr. and Mrs. N. P.

Ar-li- Parents Honored Well-Bab- y Well-Bab- Being Organized During the next two months, Clubs will be organized in Sevier County, reports Lee Guymon, County Agent. Some members have their dairy, beef, sheep and swine projects now. Most of these are cared for by the members during the year. Records are kept on these animals beginning September, and ending August 31st. Other boys and girls are now looking for and lining up their agricultural projects. Others are deciding which home economics projects they want to take; which club they want to join, and who they want and can get for a leader. Obtaining enough qualified leaders who are interested in helping boys and girls, and willing to spend the time and effort to lead a club, is still the big problem and real challenge in the program, Mr. Guymon stated. In other counties, some leaders have lead Clubs for years. In Sevier County, the oldest leader in years of club service is eight years, as far as County Agent Guymon knows. This leader is Mrs. Faye Olson of Salina. Louise Anderson of Salina; Gladys Nielson of Elsinore, and Ruby Colby of Sigurd, have five years of leadership. Carol Bredsguard of Monroe, has four years; Ruth Ann Winget and Ila Asay of Monroe; Marlin Sorenson of Salina, have three years of service. All other leaders who led clubs in the 1957 program were first and second year leaders. Other past leaders prior to 1957 have more than three years service, but a complete list is not available. These leaders have done a real service to the development of youth. Their pay comes (not in money, because they serve without salary) in the joy and satisfaction of seeing their members grow and develon through their program and other youth activities. Now, let me clear up one misunderstanding says Mr. Guymon: Some recent remarks indicate that some parents think that Club work is just a play program. It. may happen that under some conditions some clubs make work too much of a play program. But if and when this happens, it is not the Club program. The real to seprogram teaches lect, train and care for their projects, keep records and conduct meetings. They learn to work and play together; learn to sew and cook and make home furnishings articles, etc. Then there are such projects as electricity, tractor maintenance, forestry, crops, home landscape improvement, flower culture, vegetable gardening, carpenter projects, etc. A new project outlined this year is horse raising. This will appeal to young horse lovers. No. the real program is not just a play program. True, the plan is to give the members recreation and fun to stimulate interest and develop bovs and memgirls socially, but a ber who meets the proper requirements will have plenty of responsibility and work o do, Mr. Guymon said. All young folks in Sevier County between the age of 10 and 21 are invited to join a 4-- H 4-- The 48th anniversary of the marriage of a popular Salina couple, Mr. and Mrs. D. M. Anderson, was celebrated Sunday with a family dinner, with Mr. and Mrs. Dan Anderson as host and hostess. Mr. and Mrs. Anderson were married March 16, 1910 in the Manti Temple. Until 1923, they resided in Aurora, where Mr. Anderson operated a lumber business. In 1923, they moved the business to Salina, and have lived here since. Dinner was served at 4 p.m., and seated with the guests of honor were Mr. and Mrs. Paul Zakis, Mrs. Thelma Hansen, Echo Mae Anderson, the host and hostess and the grandchildren. Reminiscing of the past years was the pastime of the hour. y pre-scho- 4-- H On Wedding Date The Clinic held on March 13th and for children of age, was held at the Salina City Hall from 9 to 12 a.m. Twenty-siwere examined by Dr. Fine, assisted by the county nurse, Luzon Peterson, and Mrs. Gene Condie.

Any high metal structure is a likely target for lightning, with the possible hazard of lightning damage to electrical equipment connected to it, as well as lightning and fire damage to any building supporting it. When the t. v. antenna is mounted on a building, there are two possible paths to ground for a lightning stroke: one down the lead-i- n wire to the set, and the other down the supporting mast and through the building. The National Electric Code requires a lightning arrester to be installed on the lead-iwire to drain off the charge before entering Ihe building, and also requires the supporting mast to be suitably grounded, in order to lead the charge to ground without going through the building. There is also the danger of n high masts falling during a wind storm, and coming in contact with electric power wires. Where located on roofs of buildings, the antenna and supporting guys should not be located so as to interfere with operations of the fire departments. The picture tube used in television receivers is a highly evacuated bulb with a glass face and metal or glass walls. An atmospheric pressure of 14.7 pounds is exerted on each square inch of tube surface. When the tube breaks, it implodes in a violent manner, resulting in broken glass flying in random directions, and possibly through the protective window. When a picture tube becomes defective, it should be replaced by a qualified serviceman. When buying a television receiver, check to make sure it has been listed by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc., a organization, which tests products for safety. The UL listing means the set has been tested for fire, shock and implosion hazards. non-prof- it |
