It was during the Ephraim Lions Tournament that the hearts of the Stingers began to shine. The Stingers entered the tournament with only two wins and five losses. In this case, though, many people observed that its not always the team with the most talent or best record that wins. Playing with all of the above mentioned character traits with an emphasis on team love and unity, the Stingers turned in three shocking victories. In the championship game of the Lions Tournament, the Stingers defeated the team which .had. trampled them 41-- 3 in the first game of the" seasoi- h- cars and caravans and left with a better understanding and appreciation of the purposes of this life and life hereafter.

May this blessing be felt throughout the whole Sanpete valley, is the desire and wish of the Mormon Miracle Pageant Committee.

A pageant official who likes to survey the situation at the park counted 293 outfits, campers and tents Friday night. That was the record for 1984. And Mrs. Chamberlain, who camped with 25 members of her family that night, expressed the gratitude that a lot of the visitors evidently felt. It is wonderful of the city to make the park available for us, she said; camping together adds something special to attendance at the pageant. 4 tried growing ducks this so far have had only bad but year, luck. When my first order arrived from the hatchery, I planted them I immediately, in rows two feet spacing. apart with one-foWhen the ducks had not emerged from the ground after two weeks, I assumed I must have received a bad bunch of seed. So I reordered a new batch. I planted the second batch in shallow rows with their heads just above the ground. This planting lived for several days but grew poorly and finally died. Do you have any suggestions? 1 told him that I had had little experience growing ducks, but could give him some suggestions on growing cats. Cats are normally planted in hills. Depth doesnt seem to make much difference, but deeper is usually better. Many people prefer to soak cats overnight before planting, apparently to stimulate germination. It certainly makes them easier to handle in planting. I concluded by urging him to have his soil tested. Anyway, the soil in my garden is still wet. I have considered planting rice, but Beth refuses to pull the plow. This young missionary found e with a g in the jungle. tiger Im going to eat you, roared the tiger. Prepare for death. At that, the missionary dropped to his knees and prayed more fervently than he ever had before.

Looking toward heaven, the missionary exclaimed, Isn't it wonderful to think that my prayer can soften a wild beasts heart." Whereupon the .tiger dropped his paws and snarled, Hold your tongue!

We need a better sign! by Brace Jennings Some pageant goers apparently have a right to complain. Their complaint: that they somehow found themselves in Price, instead of Manti, en route from the Wasatch Front, and as a result missed the opening scenes of the pageant. The reason they found themselves in Price, they reported, is because the turn-of- f ftom US 6 onto Highway US 89, on the east side of Billys Mountain, was not properly marked. There is a sign at the junction of the two roads. It reads South 89, without mention of the towns involved, like Fairview, Ephraim and Manti, but apparently that sign was not adequate for people from Murray and Centerville. Dont quote me by name, one of the misplaced motorists said, because maybe I was a little dumb. The trip over the new road was bumpy, but interesting. And going through what was once Thistle was saddening. It reminded me of scenes of wars devastation. But the pageant made up for the other disappointments. I think the road people should put up a better sign, though, or someone could end up in Durango instead of Bryces. Annual grasshopper invasion by Brace Jennings A major invasion of County is now underway. Sanpete The invaders are coming out of the theyre already overrun about 30,000 acres of rangeland and 10,000 acres of cropland, according to Sanpete County extension agent Tom Reeve. hills and The invaders, of course, are and theyre now grasshoppers, putting in an appearance in gardens, where theyre munching on beets, lettuce, carrots and other succulent items. Mr. Reeve said there are heavy infestations in the Gunnison Valley area, around Fountain Green and along the west mountains between Manti and Wales. This is the third year of heavy infestation,' according to Mr. Reeve, with the hoppers hatching out in the hills and then moving into the areas that have more vegetation. Farmers and livestock are on their own so far as spraying is concerned. Thats because there is no federal, state or county money available for mounting a campaign against the pests. A few farmers have banded together to do some spraying in the Axtell area. Otherwise the hoppers are pretty much having their own way in Sanpete. Farmers can help check the invasion by spraying their fields with pesticides, Mr. Reeve said. But the grasshoppers can become too big to safely kill with pesticides because of the quantity required. They should be killed when they are young and small. Gardeners are apt to find more of the insects later in the summer when the crops are harvested and the fields are dry. That's when theyll move to town to chew on the petunias and the chard. |
