Thats the time and the date. Im prepped and Im ready But I dont feel very steady! Sponges are ready, instruments clean, Sounds like they are using steam. Why arent my doctors here? Why do I have this awful fear? Put on a table, dressed in white, Rolled in under a great big light. Ive never seen this gadget before Its poked in my arm; it will be sore! Time lapses BY Beulah G. Bradley Not long ago, five years ago, in fact, I heard Elder Paul H. Dunn say, as he spoke at our LDS General Conference, Temporal satisfactions must be met, but we must not forget the Lord in our pursuit of happiness. So, we can find a measure of peace in knowing that it is not wrong to like nice things and to be a bit more than comfortable. The Lord also says, Men are that they might have joy. But he did not mean History of Postal service in Payson Neither snow nor rain, nor heat nor gloom of night stay these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds. This is indicative of the creed of these splended mail carriers who brave the elements in the performance of their duties. The United States Mail Service has played an important role in the progress of every community and the City of Payson is no exception. Payson, Utah was first settled October 2, 1850, It was first known as Peteetneet after an Indian Chief. The name was changed to Pacen in honor of James Pace and later to Payson. The sight of the first Post office was a one room building adjoining the home at 90 East 100 North. John Thomas Hardy was the first Postmaster. The onlymenas of transportation then was the stagecoach. Mr. Hardy opened up a boarding house for the drivers. He had a grocery store in one room and an ice cream parlor in another. THE PONY EXPRESS ' With the advent of the Pony Express, April 3, 1860, the animals were housed in the adobe barn at the east gate of the fort.' The rate for a letter to cross the continent was five dollars. Mail pouches were made of leather and were sealed and strapped to the saddle. These pouches never weighed over 20 pounds . Horses were exchanged every twelve or fifteen miles.' The View From Here By Ruth Roths irinnnnn7mn72n?2nr2r2rmrmr2f Its that time qgain, the time for reunions. Some people just think of their summer vacation in terms of reunions. "Arint Silvia- is one of these folks. 'She started out way back in May attending her first reunion of the season. She and her husband traveled three hundred miles for the two day affair. It was a reunion of old high School graduates from her hometown. It was their fortieth reunion and Aunt Silvia decided that she had better make every effort to attend it because she isnt sure how healthy she might be in another ten years. She said that she was amazed at one thing. Everybody looked so OLD. At least most everybody.' There always has to be one or two exceptions. Like Silvia says, There always has to be somebody to spoil the picture. Its hard to tell just what it is that makes the difference in folks but some people regardless of the kind of life theyve had just look years younger than they should. It makes it hard for the rest of us who have gone grey, lost our teeth, gotten crippled and arthritic, gone bald, or put on weight, but its the way of life. Aunt Silvia was happy that she went to the reunion in many ways. She saw classmates she hadnt seen for years, heard fact and fiction about others who didnt attend and best of all she was recognized by everybody. That seemed to convince her that SHE hadnt changed, and that was the important thing in her book. The next reunion she attended was even more rewarding and exciting. It was her family reunion on her mothers side. She has always been close to these folks and she thinks this is tin highlight of the whole summer. They meet early in the morning and have breakfast together. Everyone knows what they are to contribute to each meal for the day and they really flock in. is The whole purpose of this just to visit and eat and socialize. The family is one of the closest I know. They arent like so many of us now who meet at marriages or deaths and call it good. This reunion is the heart of their wdiole family. At this rcmon the brothers and sisters, aunts and uncles, cousins and all, just have the whole day to get acquainted and close to each other. When a member of the family has a problem such as hard times or good times the whole group really rally around and let them know that they er Mrs. Donna Stickney, Robyn Stickney and Diana Stickney attended a kitchen shower recently at the home of Mrs. Delmor Whitney of Mapleton in honor of Diana. Mrs. Larry Averett was cohostess. Many beautiful gifts were received. Mrs. Oran F mlinson and granddaughters Gail and Connie Weeinle returned Sunday from Palo Alto, California where they attended the wedding reception of Mrs. Finlinsons daughter Bonnie Jean Jacobs and her husband Thomas Jensen. Mrs. witnessed their marriage at the Oakland Temple, Saturday evening. An open house was held at the 11th Ward in Salt Lake. The young couple will make their home in Provo while Mr. Jensen attends the BYU. Firi-lins- on trip. HOSPITAL News and views of Santaquin-Tinti- c West Mountain Views CHRONICLE PAYSON Thursday, September 4, 1969 Mr. Robert Kuensinger of Concord, California visited Monday with Mr. and Mrs. Hyrum Gold at their home. I try to peek out of one eye At those standing around, giving a At my side all dressed in white Two doctors all right. I manage are saying, sigh. Everythings to say, through a smile and a glare, Oh, Doctors, were you there?" Viola M. Spencer care. Sometimes they take up a collection for a good cause that is important to one of them. Last year they helped pay Doctor and hospital bills when one of the group had an extended illness which was not fully covered by their insurance. They helped another member paint a new house inside and out. They met at the parents home and did needed repairs and planted the garden and cleaned and pruned the yard. One family member who farms invited the others in the group to come and get corn and melons this summer. They know how to keep in touch and close by really work- ing at it. Aunt Silvia also attended a reunion of her sorority, of the former residents of Pasadena, of the Relief Society Board she worked with in the forites, and her husbands family, so I think she has done her share to keep in touch with everybody. She says that when shes too old to go to the reunions, she just hopes that she can be In 1862 it was announced that mail would leave Salt Lake City for Fillmore, Utah every Monday and Thursday. Wheat, oats, barley, eggs, butter and cheese would received in payment of postage for be letters and parcels. The stage coach which brought passengers and mail from Salt Lake City in 1879 stopped at the Garner Hotel. The coach was drawn by four horses. The drivers were John Daley and William Thomas. George Grant Simons was the second Postmaster. He served from 1897 to 1904. The Post Office was moved to the corner of 200 North on Main Street where the Painter Motor Company is now located. Jonathan S. Page became the next Postmaster. The Post Office was then moved from North Main to the present site of the Page Furniture Company at 65 South Main Street. Mr. Page served as Postmaster until July 1914. Karl Huish became the next Postmaster and held this position from July 1914 to 1922. The office was again moved to the present location of Roes Bakery Building at 17 South Main then later to 50 North Main. Mr. Huish also served as an enlistment officer during World War one as well as persuing his duties as Postmaster. He helped survey the town for free mail service which was known then as Village Delivery. The first two mail carriers were Enos Reece and William Clayson. Mr. Reece moved away and was replaced by George E. Patten. Arza C. Page followed Karl Huish as Postmaster in July 1922. He served until January, 1935. Dela D. Huish became served until acting Postmistress and July 15, 1936 when Vernal Twede received the permanent appointment as Postmaster. Grace W. Goble was appointed Assistant Postmistress. City delivery was established July 1, 1942, and in July 1948 the Post Office started a parcel post delivery to business houses and residential districts within the city limits. In October of 1949, the Post Office was moved to 41 South Main adjacent to For-seyVariety Store. Business had increased to the extent that larger quarters were necessary. On January 23, 1950, the first Highway Post Office ip the Western United States stopped in Payson, Utah on its initital run on a regular route between Salt Lake City and Richfield, Utah. In July 1964, Vernal Twede retired and James M. Durrant was appointed acting postmaster. He was postmaster until April 1966. It was under his leadership that plans jelled for a new post office building. NEW POST OFFICE April 1, 1966, Francis E. Haskell received the permanent position as Postmaster at Payson, Utah. Reed Argyle was made assistant and work was continued for a new Federal Building. This dream finally became a reality, and on March 4, 1967, the post office business was moved into new quarters at 91 South 100 East. Many improvements have continued to develop since that time. On March 11, 1968, the city delivery routes were motorized and mail carrying by bicycle became obsolete. Right hand driven jeeps were brought into the area for mail delivery. At the present time the Payson Post Office is manned with a staff of 14 employees. attending some bigger and better ones on another sphere. I hope that all of you have attended and will still attend reunions and benefit from them as much as Silvia does. It doesnt seem any time since we had eight of us sitting down to the table at mealtime and especially when a good part of them were teenagers it was hard to cook enough food to fill them up. Bread had to be baked every few days, (six loaves at a time too). A cake did good to last two meals. Milk was served in a two quart pitcher and sometimes had to be refilled. Fruit was canned quart, half gallon and gallon jars. Flour was purchased inquan-it- y, usually three or four hundred pounds at a time. Sugar and honey, rice and macaroni also were stored in large amounts. Many times ice cream was ready in the freezer in two and one half gallon con- tainers. Times have through the years changed so much it is hard to believe. Now there are four at the table and after school starts there will be only three. This calls for drastic changes in the cooking depart- ment. If we were to open a gallon bottle of fruit now it would take us days to finish it, and probably wed end up throwing part of it away. We have even had cake go begging and finally had to feed the dry stale confection to the cats. I didnt think Id ever see such a stiuation. Ive often wondered why couples or single persons living alone eat the way they do, but Im beginning to understand. I heard one widow say lately that she has changed her whole eating pattern entirely since she lives alone. She made this point clearer when she explained about vegetables for instance. She said that when events which Climaxing a week of included exhibits, demonstrations, meal preparation, public speaking and style dress revue contests to determine blue ribbon winners and also top winners to enter State Fair contests was an Awards Program and Style Dress Revue held at Provo High School. 4-- H Mrs. Irene Thomson, Extension Home Agent, welcomed the group. The program was MCd by Nancy Billings. The opening song was led by Todd Billings. Prayer was given by Richard Rieske. The pledge of allegiance and H pledge were led by Lurae Aults Cloverettes Club of American that material things are pure joy either. We would be strange people if we did not find happiness in being clean, well dressed and in nice living surroundings, but when it becomes the most important act of life to have things, even to the point of forsaking our debts to God, then we ride on the We simply must find downward wind. growth and knowledge in Gods Gospel to find pure joy, it is found no other way. I ache for people of the world who have never heard and who do not understand even when it is given them. Satan does not want the people of God to follow God so he influences their thinking. To know wherein we walk we must pray to God and listen. To be worthy of His spirit to guide us we must follow His teachings. When world possessions become the all important thing in life then we flirt with temptation that can lead us straightway down to Satans Hell. We seek the gift of Eternal Life and all else pales in glory and joy; all else is inferior by comparison. We need constant daily exposure to the Gospel teachings, to keep our energies, desire and values properly focused, or we can go down in world-kin- d of luxury in debt and unfaithfulness. Jesus Christ had no personal wealth, home or adornment and He craved none for He knew His Fathers plan of pure He obeyed, He walked, He talked joy. with His Father. He teaches us to be like Him. Yes, Temporal Satisfactions must be met, we must have wisdom to know how much. Debt can destroy or happiness and peace. 4-- Fork.

STAKE NEWS Four young men of our stake, Steve Olsen, and Bill Butler of North Ward, and Randy Ewell and Garth Nelson of Genola Ward attended the Fourth LDS Explorer-Ensig- n Leadership Conference August 22 through the 27, at the BYU Campus. Theme of the fine event was: Leadership A comOur Foundation for Tomorrow. pletely new Explorer Program was presented at the conference. We are proud to announce that among the many special activities during the week at BYU, one of our youth, Steve Olsen placed first in the Safe Driving Contest. He was presented a trophy. Steve is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Allan Olsen. Special Sunday Priesthood and Sacrament Meetings were held, the Priesthood Meeting was in charge of Victor L. Brown, Second Counselor of the Presiding Bishopric of-tChurch; the Sacrament Meeting was conducted by Elder Loren C. Dunn, of the First Council of Seventy. . The main speaker of the evening was President Nathan Eldon Tanner, Second Counselor in the First Presidency of the Church. All of these leaders have been active leaders also in the Scouting program for many years. Another special guest was Ron Phillippo, Assistant Director of Exploring in the National Council of Boy Scouts of America. Viet Nam hero, Lt. Col. Bernard Fisher was also a very special guest who keynoted the third General Conference on Saturday. He gave many challenges to the he s'- leaders. Other special interests at the conference youth and were the Athletics and Physical skill contests; hearing of top talent of the church; mental and cultural skill contests; leadership seminars; adult leadership training; discussions on manners, dating, dress, music, and many other types of enlightening and developing activities. Oh, we must remember to mention Dr. Don LinJ, one of the top astronauts of the Space Program, and who is a member of the LDS Church hailing from Utah. Dr. Lind said among many thrilling things: Knowledge and character are the only things you can take with you when you die and man should place more emphasis on she wants a taste of celery for instance she just forgets it because she cant go into the store and say she only wants two or three stalks. And likewise if she should break down and buy a whole bunch she would either get tired of it long before it was gone or she would end up giving it away or wasting it. The same is true of lettuce or cabbage or watermelon. Some foods she makes in quanity like soup, casserole, meat loaf and such and just freezes them in small containers enough for one meal, but usually she just fixes something easy. Its easy to see why many of the people in this category suffer from malnutrition. I think that children can often help their older parents out considerable by taking them out to eat or inviting them to share meals frequently, or making special dishes which they enjoy and take it to them. When we have our families to cook for we cant realize how hard it is to get enthused about cooking for one or two. Its really different even than it was as a bride when there were just the two of you. At that time you and your partner were in a different frame of mind. You were anxious to show him what a good cook you were and try to make his favorite meals as good as his mother did. He was adventurous and willing to try new things and take the good with the bad. But in later years people arent always endowed with the patience or imagination totry new foods and it is often difficult to please the taste buds. Yes, times change and needs change and its difficult to always satisfy yourself and everyone else, but we must try to become flexible and meet the changes as they come and do the best we can.
