Her early schooling began under Sally Ann Olsen. At the age of fifteen she bagan helping her mother, a practical nurse, to de liver many of the babies born here at that time. Their price for bringing the baby and caring for it and the mother every morning for ten days was the sum of fifteen dollars.

Denied the joy of bearing a living child herself, always her love has turned to the small baby or child of any friend or relative. Especially has she been a mother to the children of the John Mathis family, who lost their mother, niece of Mrs. Roberts, years ago. In constant arthritic pain which has nearly cost the use of her legs, nevertheless, this indomitable soul scorns the wheel chair. She walks chiefly on will power and pluck while she does her own housework and cooking. Her intellect is keen, her wit sparkling, her words rapid and amusing. An avid reader, she keeps up on all news whether local or worldwide. Especially does she enjoy LDS literature. She holds membership in the Relief society, although her illness prevents her from attending meetings. As has been her custom for years, right now her busy fingers are fashioning hundreds of paper blossoms to adorn the graves of loved ones on Decoration day. Graders Stage Party for Mothers First grade students of the Wellington school honored their mothers at a Mothers day party in the school gymnasium on Tues-- d ly afternoon, with a program of songs, dances and readings, which weie an outgrowth of their school activities over the past several weeks.

Types of learning activities which were demonstrated by these youngsters included class, small group and individual songs, without musical accompaniment, songs with piano accompaniment, the piano being played by Myrna Petersen, eighth grade student, and a number of new selections which the children had learned to sing to phonograph music accompaniment. Partner, circle, and group dances furnished a lively section on the program, climaxed by a rousing Indian dance. For this dance, the children had prepared their head dresses, each child expressing his individual initiative in the decorations he choose. Of special delight to the mothers were the many small verses of praise and appreciation which the children recited for them, as well as the gaily decorated, glass and paper matched vases which the youngsters had prepared as gifts. Other eighth grade girls who assisted with the arrangements were Gayle Davis and Wilma Mead. Mrs. Mary Barker and Mrs. Thulie Simmons of the school lunch program cooperated with the youngsters in preparing a fruit punch for serving.
