Ilickman and was .born at Milford September 28, 1888. It was here he received his early education, later .graduating from the Provo high school and four - years later receiving his college certificate from the U. A. C. Following graduation he became a teacher,, teaching in tbe Logan public schools.' About seven years ago Mr. Hickman moved to Bicknell as principal of the Bicknell high, school. A year later he was erected" superintendent of the schools of Wayn county and still held that position at the time He entered the legisof his death. lature to promote interest in the scenic beauty of Wayne county, being elected a member of the lower house at the last general election. At the time of his death he was also secre-- . tary of Wayne county sportsmen organization and held several mother positions in civic, political and religious scopes. Impressive funeral services were held at the Bicknell ward chapel on Monday afternoon at which high officers and many intimate friends from all parts of the state attended. To honor the deceased, the official of the state Capitol joined with the family and Wayne county in greving over the passing of Mr. Hickman. The flag on the capitol dome was placed at half mast for this King of the Capitol Reef. The loss of Joe Hickman is a tragedy, not only to hia family but to Wayne county and to the state, Governor George H. Dern declared .in. a. puhlic .statement extolling the qualities of the decedent. He was just coming into a position of recognized leadership and in a few yeads would have been a commanding figure in the state. In his own community his neighbors were proud of him and were glad to follow hia guidance. The task to which he had been de- voting himselft this year was the exploration of Wayne countys Scenic resources and in that work he displayed an extraordinary degree of en ergy, vitality, enterprise and vision. He was a young .man of exception al ability and judgment and the charm of his unassuming personality won him friends and admirers where evr he went. Personally I had learned to love him and I feel the shock of having lost a dear friend. My deepest sympathy goes out to his family. Besides his wife and five children Mr. llickmian is survived by two bro- thers and four sisters. REDMOND to By Special Correspondent. Joseph. F.
