Aren’t we then entitled to the “Majority" label?) so it must What really surprises me is that women have always raised the men ultimately be their fault that the world is in the shape it’s in As a childless woman I’m amazed to watch grown women defer significant decisions to their sons but not their daughters treating these boys as though they were bom with mature intellect This is not the case Children should not have such power no matter what their gender Who teaches the women to do this? Their mothers of course Margaret Atwood Canadian writer did a survey recently She asked women what frightened them about men The women said they w ere afraid of men because the men could beat them rape them kill them Atwood then asked a group of men w hat frightened them about women The men said they were afraid of women because the women could laugh at them Now that is truly frightening Salt Lake has just elected it’s first woman Mayor Dee Dee Comdini By the end of this year the chance is very gixid (three out of four) that the stale will have a woman Lieutenant Governor for the first time It's not the number one position it's not real power but it’s a beginning We've got no where to go but up PS I don’t often make personal recommendations but I'm making an exception Ray Killpatk will be appearing at Fillmore's Rixim 24 on July 4th Killpack is star band who sings classic standards in rixk and country material a vocalislone-maHe’s as gixxl as I've seen and I’ve seen more than a few Rixim 24 gets a personal rave dance area where you can dance and socialize w lthout the attendant it has an horrors of your typical bariavem Open air stars no smoke - just gixid music and the chance to listen to music that’s top quality And you can don’t even need to buy an alcohol to enjoy all this You can bet I'll be there bytes A device such as a I’eripheral printer or nuxlem that is externally connected to the computer Pixel A rectangular or vertical grid of red green and blue (RGB) phosphors on the screen that arc illuminated by the electron gun Measured in the number of pixels across the screen by down die screen RAM Random Access Memory Memory that data is stored in temporarily Postmarks 8 by Postmaster Tom Hamilton Well I’ll start out slow and let you know what will be happening at the Post Office in your neighborhcxxl for the 4th of July weekend Because the 4th is on a Saturday all Post Offices will be closed that day Also because Saturday is the actual holiday all Federal State County and City agencies or offices and most large businesses will be closed on Friday All Post Offices on the West side of Millard County will be open for part of the Frank Thomas teacherartistmihtary man and now caterer stands next to his restored pioneer chuchwagon after serving 60 people at the KOA Kampground Grand Opening east of Fillmore Dinner consisted of Dutch Oven BBQ Chicken and Ribs potatoes and Fresh Garden Sass - a vegetable medley Thomas says he's been in the catering business about five years and that it s a family affair involving his wife Patreece son Danny and their their daughter Jamie Thomas took two years to restore the authentic chuckwagon to suit his modern "come and get it” needs We hope that everyone has a safe and enjoyable 4th of July weekend More next week about what's in the future with automation and how it will affect you County Agent by Jody Gale Sometimes I w ish we could control mother nature We need the rain badly but not when alfalfa is in the windrow Much of the first cutting was rained on or cut weeks late as growers waited to avoid ram damage This year pool quality hay is in low demand and may be difficult to sell Second Culling has a reputation of poor quality High quality hay is very marketable and generally commands the highest hay price Slightly decreased yield and shorter stand life are trade offs but there is always a large demand for high crude protein and acid detergent fiber of Studies show the decrease in crude protein the increase in acid detergent fiber and the increase in yield as alfalfa matures The take home lesson is to harvest second cutting early to produce high quality marketable hay July 11 RacAnne Gonder and Marshall A Jemigan wedding reception 7 - 830 p m Garrison Branch Church July 12 Elder DeWaync Murphy mission farewell Hinckley Second Ward 11 a m Walter L Ekins 80th birthday open house Delta West Stake Center Hinckley 4 30 - 6 30 p m July 20 Co Softball meeting 5 p m White Sage Rec Office August Millard County Fair Open Horse Show M iss Millard contest August 6 7 8 Millard Cownty Fare county fair grounds August 22 Huis Peter Iverson descendants cousins reunion Getting One Step Ahead of Our Place withheld hardship The Langmade family enjoy the traditional Lion’s Club Breakfast at Fillmore 's City Park before joining in the Old Capitol Day A TV Jamboree activities Pat Hannah Burt and Emily are from Scottsdale Arizona know that alcohol causes Question: many problems but can it really lead to death? Answer: It is still the third leading cause of death in the United States Alcohol damages all body symptoms and is a factor to many deaths contributing caused by organ failure Added to that are the deaths by accidents drownings violence and industrial accidents and the toll rises It is esumated that over 300 people a day die from alcohol related causes in the United States That's the equivalent of a major airplane crash every day and yet people still don’t feel that alcohol is as dangerous as other drugs Clarification The layout of the story last week entitled "Four Retire from School District" gave the impression that Wendell Robison School Board President was among the retirees Mr Robison is not retiring The people retiring are Lewis Reece Finlinson Ranac and Doreen Hare |
