This seems amazing in this year sex of womens And it is also unusual to note that while there is not one woman in the state at the present time there were three women dentists practicing in Utah back in the year 1915. One of the reasons given for the scarcity of women dentists in Utah is that there is no dental school in Utah or in Idaho. The closest dental schools are in the state of Washington and one in Denver. I THINK THIS SCARCITY of women in the dental field is a crying shame and something should b. done about it like special grants and privileges for young women who want to be dentists. Women should make excellant dentists . . . they have smaller hands than men, and can get into the mouth in a more dainty manner. Women are more pitient than men, and should be fine dentists for young children. Personally, while I have an excellent dentist, he is getting bald. I wouldnt mind going to a pretty blonde dentist after all. Im used to being hurt by blondes. WOMEN DENTISTS are quite the thing in Europe. Many dentists in Russia are women my daughter goes to a woman dentist in Amsterdam So, lets get stalled, you young Utah women start thinking about the rewards of a career in dentistry. The field is wide open. Like I said before, there were three practicing women dentists in the year ... 1915. An old record book recording this fact also shows that in the year 1915 thats there were seven only 63 years ago women journalists in Utah, one woman banker, one lady lawyer, 34 female and two doctors, one lady carpenter lady it's time to start Time is fleeting thinking about who you're gonna fool on April Fool's Day! saloon-keeper- s!

Gel Em Off! of your studThat ded snow tires as you drive along dry roads should take on an urgency for you this week: you have until Friday midnight to get them off your car. By state law, snow tires with studs must be off each spring by March 31, or youll face a ticket for an equipment violation. The Utah Department of Transportation warned that the law is unbending . . . nothing in it will make them legal after Friday, even if the worst snowstorm of the year hits. While the studs may provide some extra traction on certain types of ice, the studs damage roads at most other times so they may be used only during the winter, and thats why the Legislature imposed a $1 a tire tax on studded tires to help offset those damage costs. Kiclianls Slrtrt Mall to Close Block in S.L. Salt Lake Citys downtown block of Richards Street (40 West) will be closed forever to traffic about May 1. That was the word from a spokesman of Crossroads Associates Tuesday as the city commission formally signed an oidinance vacating the street, running between South Temple and First South. Crossroads Associates plans to build part of its Crossroads Mall on the street, and all merchants on the street are vacating buildings. The mall, to cost from $40 million to $50 million, awaits formal commission approval pending final plans to handle traffic in the area. The mall will sprawl over the block just south of Temple Square. Demolition is expected to begin April 15 to make way for construction. and county law is superceded by state law. Another morion demands a jury, should the case go to trial. The other three motions ask the court to demand the state provide requests for depositions from three different witnesses in the case. Those motions also request the state to provide any and all evidence in the case to the defense. Commissioner Hutchinson has also been named in a complaint, filed in 2nd District Juvenile Court, with harboring a runaway juvenile boy and taking indecent liberties with two juvenile males. Trial in those cases is pending. Hearing dates were not set on the motions filed Tuesday.
