THE ANIMALS range in age from three months to adult animals. The mature cats are neutered. All animals have had their shots. A person adopting a Pet Pride animal must agree to give the pet a wholesome diet, keep him clean and provide shelter and give him professional medical attention when needed. DOE BAGGED A special doe hunt the first in many years is continuing in Davis County for the next two weekends. BEST AREAS for bagging that deer are on the firebreak road between Farmington and Bountiful and are very good above Centerville, says Allan Hash, Division of Wildlife Resources county officer. Shepard Canyon, just north of Farmington Canyon, is also doing well, he adds. Hunting is allowed during daylight on Saturday and Sunday this weekend and Dec. Only those whith special 19-2- permits issued some 200 were may participate. Ap Lucky baggers of a doe in the special hunt are Perry Jordan, daugter Andrea and Mike of Woods Cross. plications were called for last July and assigned randomly by computer, Mr. Hash notes. In addition, hunters must possess a big game license. FRUIT HEIGHTS and East Layton are areas also producing well, he says, with from 5 seen in some areas. Stressing the hunt was called because of a mild winter, last year, in an attempt to even out population, Mr. Hash says bucks cannot be legally killed in this hunt. But if an animal has less than five inch antlers it is defined as anterless and eligible. 25-6- MOST ARE being killed ADOPTED animals are not to be used for breeding purposes.

Other areas conducting hunts are in Utah County, Cache, Mofgan, Box Elder and Summitt counties. AFTER BAGGING a deer it must be immediately tagged to limit hunters to one doe, Mr. Hash says. If the date of kill and sex arent listed its illegal. If a hunter has problems seeing a deer he should go to Interstate 15 or U.S. Highway 89 in north county and attempt to locate them with a tele- scope. tb 376-236- THE EXPENSE of feeding, housing and providing medical treatment for the large number of cats Pet Pride cares for is great. Local veterinarians are very good about keeping their costs to a minimum but the expenses are still there. Donations towards the care of these animals are always appreciated especially this time of year, dmg Speedy Have you ever been ched for going too fast?. No, but slapped. Ive pin- been . Park Work Continues By DONETA GATHERUM The Layton City Parks partment has enjoyed its Indian Summer weather. De- -. THE WARM temperatures have given parks crews extra time to landscape Layton's two new parks. The additions to the citys park system are located in East Layton, adjacent to the old city hall and in Oak Forest. Both parks are being financed by matching fund grants from the Bureau of Outdoor Recreation. THE EAST Layton park was started about two years ago when East Layton City was an independent community. The city received a $60,000 BOR matching grant. This means the community contributes $30,000 and the BOR matches the amount with $30,000. Most of the grading and leveling was done by volunteers from the Job Corp before East Layton was incorporated into Layton City. THE LAYTON Parks De- partment has retained the same design as was approved by East Layton. The four acre park will contain two double tennis courts, two Little League ball diamonds and a soccer field. There is a possibility a second soccer field can be developed. ONE parking lot has been completed. There is not enough money in the budget to finish a second parking lot at this time. LAYTON City will contract for a 100 person capacity bowery for the park as soon as possible in the spring. This will be similar in design and style to the one adjacent to the Heritage Museum in the Layton Commons Park. Tennis courts and rest rooms will have to wait until there is more money in the parks budget. KIM BROWN, former East Layton City Councilman and a member of the Layton City Parks Commission, has been working closely with the city in developing this park. Mr. Brown is currently looking for tree donations. The city has many evergreen trees to use for landscaping the park but decidious trees are needed. People who can donate towards this tree planting project should contact Mr. Brown. The Layton Rotary Club has donated Little League backstops. These will be installed in the spring. t THE SPRINKLLNG system is completed in the East Layton Park and the entire area is seeded into grass. A chain link fence will separate the park from nearby farms. THE EAST Layton City Park is now in the grading By DONETA GATHERUM "Next to the place where you grew up, Utah is the place to be. These are the words Roland Long, native of Pennsylvania who came to Utah in 1946. expresses his feelings about his the hills of the East. MR. LONG was born in the mountaineous country of Pennsylvania not far from Harrisburg. He received his early education in a one-rooschool house close to the family farm. Until very recent years, schools like this were common in Pennsylvania. La- ter he spent three years teaching in a sylvania school. , tremendous childhood centered around his family and farm life left Mr. Long and content w ith himself. He could harness a team of horses at age ten. That same year, he received his first gun and learned from his father and brothers to hunt safely and to respect the mountains and the wildlife. THIS YEAR, Mr. Long spent about 12 days deer and elk hunting. This is his favorite sport. Pennsylvania has 17 teacher-oriente- d colleges. Mr. Long attended Shippensburg State College, one of the 17. He received an excellent education in teacher-preparednes- s. AT THIS point in his life. Mr. Long was faced with the decision of whether to become a teacher or a professional artist. He chose teaching although art has continually been a part of his life. He is an oustanding oil painter. At different times, he has instructed art classes. Once, he conducted three adult education art classes a week. Up to 30 adults were enrolled in each class. WORLD WAR II changed e of many people the especially young men. Mr. Long ended up in the U.S. life-styl- MR. LONG met a Utah girl named Phyllis Wood. He be- came interested in her, Utah, the people and the LDS Church. He liked the climate and the mountains. Mostly he liked Phyllis. Faced with the urgent situations war creates, Phyllis and Roland were married not long after they first met. Mr. Long agreed to move out West but go back East a lot." This formula has worked out well for them. Penn- one-roo- A Army Air Corp (Air Force). He was stationed at Kearns, Utah awaiting orders for oversea duty. The year was 1946. THE LONGS lived for a while in North Salt Lake before moving to the west part of Kaysville. Later, they moved to their present home on Crest-woo- d Road in Kaysville. This location is ideal for Mr. Long. He has enough acreage to allow him to feel like a small-scafarmer. The wooded creek that runs behind the home reminds him somewhat of Pennsylvania. There are many projects to keep him completely busy. Mr. Long does carpentry work. He paints artistically and practically. He has experience with electricity and he repairs his own vehicles. le A CAREER in education is another important part of Roland Long's life. After being discharged from the service, he continued his education at the University of Utah, receiving a masters degree and an administrative certificate. He started teaching in Utah at the Layton Elementary School. Later, he moved to South Davis Junior High School in Bountiful. MR. LONG has been given one of the biggest challenges of his life when the school superintendent asked him if he would like to be the principal of Sahara Village Elementary School in Layton. He held this position for three years. His next assignment was to open the Whitesides Elementary School in Layton. He was principal of this school for 23 years.' MR. LONGS final assignment with the Davis School District was to be principal of the new E.G. King Elementary School in Layton. He retired from this assignment in June of 1981. Mr. Long has developed a philsophy of sensitivity to other peoples feelings and needs. He has adopted a program centered around the belief that people are important, intelligent, informed and productive when they are permitted to be somebody and to feel good about themselves. This applies to everybody in all situations not just to school personnel or students. MR. LONG has organized sensitivity programs in schools where he has been an administrator. The results have been positive. According to Mr. Long, education is one profession that is eternal. What you do wont rust away or go out of style. It is impossible to determine the influence you have had on hundreds of thousands of people. MOST OF this influence goes unrecognized by yourself and the students but it is there and the educator is a part of the students total personality. Mr. Long says teaching is an experience that goes by quickly. "What happened today? is quickly transmitted into what happened a month, a year e or a ago? stage. Some contracts for construction work on this park will be let in the spring. SUPPORT IS the key to a successful education system, Mr. Long believes. Adminis- -' trators need support from teachers, parents and children. Teachers, parents and children need support from each other and from administrators. In the final analysis, an administrator must look out for the needs of everybody. This is the challenge of a challenge was met well by land Long, dmg The Ro- GINGERBREAD HOUSE Christmas is a traditional time for the making of gingerbread houses with directions provided for one design. - The tradiKAYSVILLE tional Christmas gingerbread house is enjoyed and admired by many families each holiday season. THE HOME of Darell and Stephanie Jensen in Kaysville is the scene for such a house, designed and built by Mrs. Jensen. The beautiful finished product is a work of art and since completed measures 2 feet high, 18 inches wide and 32 inches long taking her almost two months to finish. I MRS. JENSEN said, spent over 100 hours on the gingerbread house and I had no idea when I started it would be so huge. She, being a creative and artistic person, started to build a small gingerbread house, as in past year, but for some unknown reason, built it on a larger scale. for posts) 287 hard candy mints and 387 candy peanuts in addie tion to the figurines and two ceramic figurines that of Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus and a teddy bear which she also hand painted. hand-mad- SHE COMMENTED it took 20 cups of flour and five pounds of powdered sugar. She used Christmas cards in the windows and pleated tissue paper for the drapes. No pattern was used, she drew the sketch of the house and all the figurines, cut them out and went to work, making them. She said, when I was a child at home, every Christmas, my mother would make a gingerbread house and the children could eat it after which was a fun family treat. AFTER HER marriage she has continued the tradition in her own home, this year, however, is her prize, the largest one she has ever built or ever seen. On Saturday, Nov. 28, was birthher day anniversary, Mrs. Sara Kneedy of Kaysville. THE FAMILY held a surprise dinner party in her honor in Farmington at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Alan Jensen. A highlight of the celebration was the beautiful constructed gingerbread house for all to enjoy. THE ONE thing Mrs. Jensen is concerned with, is the Night Raider, her son DAlan who has a tendency to want to pick at the gingerbread house for a candy cane, candy peanut or whatever his fingers can reach. One has to admit, it is tempting, but it is such a beautiful piece of art, much too pretty and attractive to undo. Mrs. Jensen plans to store it to be used for future holiday seasons. np Elected By Knights Of Columbus SUNSET - Edwin R.
