Remember, folks, when we started this idea of printing favorite recipes of our famous Centerville cooks we told you it was a new racket. Judging by the number of requests we have had from people wanting to join our staff as official tasters it is an appealing one. To the staff members it is not only appealing but a very tasty racket.

One of the recipes we present to you this month was prepared and served to us by a well named Cook, Helen.

Councilman May 4, 1931. Duncan asked the Board to increase the pay of Mr. Trembath for removing the tank on the south street as it was a much larger job than had been expected. And on motion of H. S.

Of Centerville From page three by their rapid feeding, would actually regurgitate and again go on devouring. This seems almost incredible, but we have the testimony of hundreds of those early pioneers who were there and witnessed it. In the summer of 1853 a fort wall was commenced enclosing nine blocks of the town survey, but only a part of the wall on the north line was built when the project was abandoned. A new wall was completed in 1854. This wall was made of rocks and dirt and was 6 feet wide at the base and about 8 feet high. It extended north along the west side of the highway from where Deuel creek crosses the highway to the Whitaker property, thence east to the east highway, south to the Everetts property and then west to the main highway. This wall was built as a protection from a surprise attack by the Indians. The first road through this wall was about the middle of the east wall and was for the purpose of bringing logs and firewood into the fort from Deuel creek canyon. For years the town of Centerville was called the fort by those dwelling on the outskirts of the town. In the early summer of 1854, they were again visited by a scourge, this time it was not crickets but insects equally destructive the winged grasshopper. When the crops along the fertile district lying between the mountains and lake were growing nicely with prospects bright for an abundant harvest, there came the grasshoppers flying in such numbers as to almost darken the sun. The settlers saw at once that unless something could be done to drive them away that everything green would disappear, and prospects of a harvest would vanish. Being a religious people and having had an occasion to rely on the Lord before, all went to him in this instance, and strange to say, the next morning soon after sunrise the grasshoppers rose in the air like a cloud, it seemingly being a habit with them to exercise after a night passed on the growing crops. While in the air a strong east wind came down from the mountains and blew them over the lake, where myriads settled in the briny waters and were drowned. Later when the wind changed to the west the grasshoppers were washed upon the shore in a wind row along the water edge. Many of the settlers regard these occurrences in the nature of miracles as remarkable as the flight of quails which saved the Israelites during their flight from Egypt.
