Show Three missionaries honored at farewell programs Sunday Blaine T. Dixon Volume 73, No. 34 PAYSON, UTAH, THURSDAY, Blaine Taylor Dixon, son of Bishop and Mrs. Blanchard Dixon, will be honored in the Sacrament Services of the AUG. 25, 1960 Payson First Ward Sunday evening prior to leaving to fulfilling a mission for the L DS church. The program will Hemeimtiary schools set boyiradairoes foi grades Tentative boundaries have been established for the four elementary schools in Payson the coming year. These boundaries were established as a result of a careful study of census charts based on last years school enrollments. However, with the shifting of population during the summer months it may be necessary to make minor changes after school begins. It is necessary that the school boundaries differ from grade to grade due to uneven population growth. This means that in some cases children of the same family will be required to attend different schools. If each school were to have uniform 'boundaries for all grades, it would result in some classes being over crowded and others too small. It is hoped that parents will realize the problems involved to make an equal load distribution between the four elementary schools. Every effort was made to make a fair distribution, and yet, offer the best possible educational program for our community. The cooperation of parents is solicited and will be appreciated. Parents of children who will attend Kindergarten this year are requested to attend a special meeting on next Wednesday, August 31. They are to attend a meeting in the school where their child is scheduled to go this year.
