Show SUN CHRONICLE. March 24, 1979, Page 2 Letter to the Editor Editorial Spring -- Reference to your editorial of March 17, Sun Chronicle. It appears to me someone is editorializing on a subject he knows little about and made very little effort to ascertain the facts. ! This year, it seems that old man Winter just wants to hold onto everything he has and not let go of Utah with his icy grip. Hes unwilling to concede that its time for him to leave for one more year, letting the earth once again renew itself and put on its spring time beauty. The long winter months are hard on a persons sense of caring, when the world seems dismal and grey, with little toi offer other than storms and cold. But, in spring time, hope swells in everyones heart that once again there will be warmth, birds will be singing in the morning to wake up to, and the daylight will linger just a bit longer to add a few extra activities to ones daily schedule. Another blessing of the coming of Spring is the hope of reducing the costs of keeping us warm and in the light. Utility bills have kept even the richest moaning, unable to buy other things because of this sometimes seemingly unreasonable" bill to pay. So, when Spring finally does arrive in Utah with warm weather, ft will surely be welcome. Although the calendar indicated that Spring should have come last Wednesday, old man Winter just hasnt looked at his dates recently. Let me state a few facts. FACT NO. 1: If Ogden City was so concerned aDout the safety of the citizens of Roy, they would not be trying to extend the airport runways into an already established residential area of Roy. Namely runway FACT NO. 2: There is considerably more danger to other residents of Roy from aborted take-off- s or fouled ud landings at the Ogden Airport than to the residents of Monte Vista Mobile Home Park. Namely Roy High School students and faculty and adjacent residences. FACT NO. 3: If Ogden City is so concerned about a buffer zone around the airport, then Ogden City should be buying up the adjacent land as it becomes available, at a fair markket value, and not expect private citizens to provide that buffer zone for them. FACT NO. 4 r In the event someone wants to establish a manufacturing area on the Nye property in the future, mobile homes are much easier and less costly to move than buildings of a more permanent nature. Zoning could be changed again to allow for that. FACT NO. 5: Roy City Council certainly did act in the best interest of all citizens of Roy in rezoning this property for Mr. Nye. 1. Douglas A.

A novel of the career of William the Conqueror, bastard son of Duke Robert and a tanners daughter, and the events leading him to become the most powerful man in northern France and eventually King Dr. Daryl E. Hales As everyone knows, parents are ever willing to sacrifice for their children. We read stories about parents who give their children the corneas from their very eyes; offer a kidney. We even hear of mothers who cant swim a stroke, jumping into rivers to save their children from drowning, BUT no one ever mentions the everyday heroism of the parents who let eleven year olds have a slumber party. I personally feel that this should rank high on the list of parental gallantry. Last week, in a moment of madness, I allowed my younger daughter to have eleven young ladies (?) over for a slumber on the party. They arrived as the clock struck seven-rig- ht dot- -, laden with sleeping bags, pillows, and gifts. We began our evening of enchantment by taking them to the roller rink. This was to be our last two hours of any sort of peace in a long and sleepless night. Following the skating party, the opening of gifts, and the gorging on snacks, Ray and I observed the usual slumber party agonies. One wide eyed innocent could sustain a piercing giggle for 20 straight minutes. It reached such a high decibel that it literally made our nerves quiver like jello. There is always one child who doesnt like white bread, hates all soft drinks, and is allergic to popcorn. She, naturally enough, is always famished. At least two always quarrel and permanently renounce all friendship. One of the quarreling pair wants to go home to mother and leave the loathsome presence of her fifteen - Electrical operating costs Ways to get the most out of your electricity conservation information Ways to get the most out of your electric heating O Energy conservation tips for air conditioning O Energy guide for cooking O O O O We want to for electric heating Ways to get the most out of your electricity insulation lights Security post-to- p Energy-savin- g devices for the home UP&L Energy-EfBdeHome award help make your home as as possible. energy-efficient Hr The public is invited.
