Show Payson Now Enjoying Beauty of New Pond is with a certain amount nostalgia that we the citizens of Pason working closest with the Park Pond Restoration near the end of a project which has been challenging, yet dear to our hearts. Looking at the pond from any angle, we are proud of our achievement, but we are prouder still of the people in our community and the display of civic pride that has existed. It has been more than just the restoration of a pond. We hope our town will always be proud of the park pond and what it has come to stand for. Since it is near a picnic area, there have been paper cups, and clutter candy wrappers, thrown in it already. Water is always an attraction tochildren and parents are asked to help keep the pond clean by instructing their children in the lessons of civic pride. It has been a fight to get the pond back and we just cant let it ever return to its former state. Signs will be posted and the City Police will observe It of The Pond in Memorial Park has now been restored adding to the beauty and enjoyment of this beautiful setting.

Serious Problem on Forest Trespass continues to be a serious problem on the Nephi District of the Uinta Forest according to Forest Ranger, Harold E. Laird. Occupancy and livestock trespass threaten both the aesthetic value and the natural resources of your National Forests. Most of the livestock trespass occurs when cattle drift from private land on to the National Forest land. The Nephi District has 150 miles of boun180,000 of the forest boundary was fenced but due to the extensive amount of fencing that would be necessary on all National Forests throughout the United States, the Forest Service no longer builds dary encompassing acres. Originally part or maintains boundary fences. Numerous court cases have placed the burden of responsibility on the owner to prevent livestock trespass rather than on the Forest Service. Thus to use private land next to the National Forest land, thecwner must build or maintain sufficient fence to leep his animals off from the Forest. areas within the Forest have been closed Nat-in- al Many Lana Ewell, 6 years old of Santaquin, was the lucky winner of a beautiful bicycle given away Saturday, August 19th at the Huish Theatre The bicycle was courtesy of Chase Lumber Co., Reed Money, owner.
