Show Millard County Progrett, Fillmore, Utah 84631 Friday, February t 1, 1980 Pag 2 Our Town FILLMORE by STELLA DAY Although each of us feels that we have enough to do without adding one more responsibility to the list. I am sure it we really are interested in raising better vegetables, fruits and flowers, in having better groomed homes, more artistically landscaped, as well as a cleaner, more attractive home town, we will find tune to join a garden club and do our part to accomplish these objectives. We may not as much as we expected to do, but each year of improvement adds and gradually we have to the "better way of life done enough to really improve OUR TOWN enough for travelers to notice that the citicns of this town "really care" about the kind of environment in which their familes are raised. If each pervin keeps his sidewalks, parkings and street in front of his place free from litter, free from weeds, grass well trimmed, with attractive, well coordinated plantings on his home grounds, we would all be happier and healthier. Working out in the fresh air, really using our muscles is the best guarantee for good health we can prescribe. We can't expect to change the whole town in one year, for the weeds keep growing, and the debris collects constantly, therefore it is a constant, never ending battle, but isn't everything we do almost a repeat of the day before? In order to earn a living for our families, we have a regular routine which is almost the same each day. but if we are really interested in our work we will sec something new to intrigue us. no matter where we go or what kind of work we do. Gardening is such fun because something interesting is happening each day. Each season of the year brings such remarkable changes that ine can hardly wait to get up in the morning to make sure you dont miss any part of the beauty with which we arc constantly surrounded. Mothers and fathers should teach their children to Uiok for these many changes and get inspiration and happiness from the beauties of nature, rather than from appliances. Although most of us have excellent sight, we still haven't trained our eyes to see our sin roundings. 'I he happy people in this world are the ones who get pleasure from doing things which are uplifting, building and improving their homes, working w ith the members of their families and caring how each member feels, doing some little favor for each member and trying to help them with their problems. The more unselfish we become, the more we will accomplish and the more time we will have to improve our community. have belonged to a garden club ever since I was married, in fact. I helped organize the first garden club in Fillmore, the very first such club was not called a Garden Club but was "The Fillmore Rose Club", with just eight members: Stella Day. Geneva Speakman. Laura Anderson, Jessie Melville, Fern Ro. man-mad- e 1 bison. Grace Mitchell, Ila Stevens, and Nell HuntsmaiA four of whom tore still living. These members hclpcd&eaiuify Fillmore and some of their efforts have grown into some of the most beautiful parts of OUR TOWN. We were responsible for the Rose Garden in the park north of the Courthouse. Each member gave ten dollars and we purchased several hundred rose bushes and got Fred Augsburger. a noted Swiss landscape architect, to design the Rose Garden for us. He was the President if the Utah Assoeiatcd Garden Clubs, and we belonged to that association. He did not charge us one penny for designing the Rose Garden, although he made several trips to Fillmore and paid his own expenses. We also planted the Rose Garden at the Fillmore Hospital and we planted the very first roses at the State House. Look at that garden now. It is one of the most beautiful Rose Gardens in the state, due to the care and attention which Max Martin has given this project. We should all be most grateful to Max for his constant effort to get help in taking care of these rose buds. We all can enjoy the excellent roses which are in these gaulens. for they are the All American winners each year, and even if we cant afford to purchase these patented roses, we can still enjov seeing them m the State House gardens. I wish eveiy man in town were as conscious of beauty as is Mjx Martin, and we would have little trouble keeping E Cl I V IN THE our name as " I HE Cl FANES f LIT 1 U.S. 1 V" Some persons with hearing losses actuallv hear heller in noisv environments than in quiet places, according to the Belionc Crusade tor Hearing Conservation.

Lions Host Valiquette Thursday, January 1980, the Fillmore Lions Club was honored to have as their monthly dinner meeting speaker Mr. Jack Valiquette, the plant manager of the Brush Wellman Company in Delta. This well attended meeting at the local Truck Stop Cafe was well worth while as Mr. Valiquette carefully described many of the activities that go on at the gigantic mining and refining operation east of Delta.

Doing it on Their Own Logan - westerners who have been vocal about wanting to run their own local government shows without so much federal help are probably going to get what they want, according to financial consultant Mark Peterson.

Peterson spoke in the second session of the Merrill lecture Series on Financing Rural Development, held at Utah Slate University.
