DEADLINES: Respect Cemetery Property Life has many seemingly obvious inequities and tragedies that befall us naturally, without our adding to them. I speak at this time in reference to a special group of individuals who are apparently devoid almost completely of any sense of human compassion or concern for the feelings of others. In reference to this group, it has often crossed my mind just what type of a person it is who would sink so low as to steal flowers or ornaments from the grave of another person. Many people go up to our city cemetery for several evenings before Memorial Day and with tender and loving personal concern, clean and straighten the area around the graves of their departed loved ones. Substantial amounts of money and more important a substantial amount of personal respect and gratitude are expended in obtaining tokens of affection to place on a dear ones grave. If you want to observe sadness at its extreme just be present at the cemetery the day after Memorial Day. Few people have the ability to control their righteous indignations and anger when they see somone who returns after the crowds have departed to pay special quiet respect, that only someone who has lost a close loved one can understand, only to find that some despicable most of the wreaths and flowers from the fiend has stolen grave. Their certainly should be a special form of justice reserved for the person who can commit so foul an act. Please, this year at least, lets respect the efforts and property of others and if you should observe anyone disturbing any of the flowers, accept the responsibility to see that they are reported and properly punished. Dont Sign the Petitions People think backwards too many times on issues that are of an extremely vital nature. Take the current issue of liquor by the drink. Many people say: "well lets sign the petition so that the issue can get on the ballot at least and then if it passes, If it happens that it brings in alot of tourist lets, try it out. dollars, then we can really feel like we did the right thing." 11, however, it proves out that we have made a mistake, we can always later" vote it out." As far as sound logic is concerned, its about like saying lets jump in the deep water and if we can swim to shore fine, if we cant swim, we can always yell for help and Jhere will probably Ibe someone: there who can save us and put ps back where we started. Hqw many times have you seen a farmer in our area fail to repair his pasture fence and then cuss himself when he has to chase cattle over half the county? All the farmer would have had to do was to keep his fence repaired and all we need to do in reference to the liquor by the drink issue, to prevent turning loose problems as numerous as cattle and of a heartbreaking nature that will be extremely difficult to handle, is to just refuse to sign a petition asking to put the issue on the ballot. There are too many lives snuffed out and families left without someone to bring home a paycheck or romp with young children on a front lawn on a warm summer night already. Ask any woman who has a husband with a drinking problem if she is in favor of making liquor more easily accessible to everyone, especially youhg people. When liquor by the drink comes into effect in an area, you in reality I make it an almost impossible task to enforce the use of liquor. Enforcement is made more difficult, because the number of points of sale to be watched and controlled .is increased hundredsof times. If passed, then becomes legal and; .available to have liquor at almost every eating establishment in the state. Its hard enough now to keep the hateful mixture away from the young and foolhardy, so why turn loose greater human sorrow and suffering on ourselves? Anyone who signs a petition is in effect requesting more smashed bodies and automobiles, more divorce cases, more runied careers, higher welfare costs, more heartache and more property loss and more alcoholic wards at the Utah State Mental Hospital at rProvo. If you personally believe in trying to preserve what degree of wholesomeness and common decency we do have, you had certainly better speak loud and clear against signing any petition to make liquor more easily accessible in the state of Utah. Merchants Supports Papers J than one-ha- lf of American merchants invest over 90 percent of their advertising budget in newspaper advertising. TMS includes stores from the largest to the smallest in the nation. The continued dominance of the newspaper as the basic retail advertising medium is not a matter of habit. Its not a matter of loyalty to the local newspaper. .A merchant t first loyalty is to his store. When he advertise he thinks in terms of profits. Any retailer is wise enough to experiment with all available advertising media. He is also practical enough to do the bulk of his advertising where it will return theJargest net profit. f.'The small retailer may choose an advertising meum as the refiplt of informal observation from week to week, or year to year. 011 the other hand, giant retail stores use carefully controlled research to determine which advertising medium serves them best. Sdch research causes nearly every large department store or sdfeermarket to select the local newspaper as its primary promo-tiqa- al outlet. - Much can be said for the local newspaper in terms of low C06t per person reached, or in terms of economic and social levels of headers, or in terms of convenience and acceptability to reader. However, the retail stores which continue to invest billions annually in local newspaper advertising, base their choice on one measure sales results. From the half-inwant ad to the eight-pag- e department store special, no substitute shoppers guide has been found for the local newspaper. i v r f. 2 THE PAYSON CHRONICLE ch Marvin 'Mog' Warren Candidate for Senate Marvin "Mog" Warrendemo-cr- at Springville announces his candidacy for the State Senate.
