Mr. Twede reported that during the past five days an average of 150 parcels has been delivered in Payson and another 150 parcels has been mailed. An estimated 66,230 Christmas cards have also been mailed by Payson during the past five days, plus some 5000 regular first class mail items. The postmaster said Christmas card mailings are down some 20,000 from the same period last year, due probably to fact that many civic and church groups which sold cards last year did not have sales projects this season. well-wishe- rs i He Allegiance As New U.S. Citizens Edgar and Ragna Dodds of Payson became naturalized citizens of the United States in court ceremonies in Provo December 4.

Should Reduce, Maybe Fat Steer Sticks In Bathtub; Derrick Wrecker to Rescue By MADOLINE DIXON A fat steer got caught in a bathtub Wednesday morning and a derrick wrecker had to be called to get him out. Thats the truth (but it sounds so untrue I feel guilty in writing it). An old type bathtub with curved upper edge and legs extending at the bottom is used for wattering stock in the barnyard of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Sitmmons, 150 North Fourth West. Wednesday morning Mrs. Simmons heard an unusual noise and went out to investigate. There she saw the steer flat on his back in the tub, his feet extended straight up into the air. He was wedged in tightly, and could do nothing but throw his head from side to side. There was water in the tub, but his head was not in the water.
