Observers were discussing what had gone through their minds when the Big Flash came. Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer revealed that he had thought of the line, I have become Death, Destroyer of Worlds." An even more pessimistic observer admitted, I thought to myself: This is the kind of a flash the last men will see in the last fraction of a second before the world, ends.

IT IS EVIDENT when we realize how much there is to be done that older people can do that we are losing much by not utilizing the wisdom and the capacities of these people. All work is important, and who can say there never will be a time when the work of the toolmaker, the farmer, the machinist, the clergyman, the healer, the scientist, the explorer, the teacher, the lawyer, the businessman, giving a portion of his day of his retired brains or brawn, will not be of supreme importance in the life of a family, a neighborhood or a nation? Supplying people with the things they need is one of our greatest problems, and the answer will never be found in forcing idleness in a large segment of our population our elderly folk.

Santa Claus is scheduled to arrive in Magna on December 1st at 6:00 p. m.

New decorations, in addition to the thousands of colored globes, will feature modern innovations stretched across the street and on lightpoles.

Vaughn of 2891 South 9200 West, Magna received $112 for suggesting that washers be used for the giant Symons cone crushers at the concentrators. The washers save considerable time when the crushers are being adjusted. They also eliminate hammering and, in some cases, burning off a nut to complete adjustment of the crushers.

Out of my life, out of the lives of others, and out of that conviction which comes to all of us when we face ourselves in absolute honesty, I have come to know God. Not by theological proof, such as you would receive from a priest, minister or bishop, for 1 am not qualified. Nor by scientific means, because I am no scientist My proof is based on belief in the value of the human being. And it rests upon the realization of the infinite wonder and glbry of the universe.
