Wilson School Notes The View From Here Ruth Rothe My friend Leah called from my old home town to let me know that an old family friend had passed away. Tom was over eighty but it was still a shock that he had really died. Tom was a real health bug from way back. He had lived next door to us as children and we had loved and admired him all our lives. At first our love for him had been in a true childlike vein because he wouldnt eat candy and many times hq received candy as gifts and such. At first he wouldnt even offer us any, but one day when he saw our mother hand out candy bars to us he asked her if she thought it was good for children to eat candy. After quite a long discussion between them he saw that our mother wasnt going to be converted to his ideas so with her permission he began giving us treats occasionally. He also gave us fruits to eat and he became our real pal As the years went by we loved him for other good qualities he had besides the goodies he gave us. Tom had never taken up any foolish habits" as he caUed them, like smoking or drinking anything except water, milk. new history of Payson is being written by Madoline Dixon and will be published by the Chronicle Publishing Company of Pay-so- n.

He ate meat sparingly if at all Tom walked every where he went and didnt even own a horse until he was over thirty. He only had it for a week and traded it for a bike, after that he either walked or rode the bike and even when automobiles became common and ordinary he didnt buy one. He was still riding the bike a week ago. If he had let well enough alone I think he would have lived years yet but he really let himself go overboard on the health bit. When the cranberry scare was on a few years ago he stopped eating cranberries and hasnt tasted one since, but it also caused him to investigate every rumor he heard about ANY food. With all the spraying he quit eating any vegetables or fruits he wasnt sure about. He wouldnt eat anything imported from New Mexico or Nevada because he thought that it might be contaminated with atomic dust. He stopped eating anything that seemed in anyway to have a bit of extra calories. He had always enjoyed fish but with aU of the talk about streams being contaminated he quit eating them too, and recently when he read that liver could be dangerous to eat because it could have spray residues or other impure things in it he vowed Hilights from Goshen Mrs. Eva Cook Phono 274-330- Mr. and Mrs. V.L, Beck of Ogden visited Thursday and Friday with their sister-in-laMrs. Eva Cook.

Tom even began baking his own bread the last few years after his wife passed away so that he would KNOW that none of the new fangled chemicals and such would be added to it. He had always milked his own cow too so that he could feel that it was safe after he had pasteurized it. But it had been getting more difficult aU the time to find feed that he knew was free from sprays and such. Needless to say Tom hadnt really enjoyed eating the last few years and it is also probably unnecessary to tell you what he died of. The truth is 'he starved to death.

He stated that there are now approximately 30 men and three women in the county jail, many of them rather young, 18 to 27 years of age. He said it is sad to see them in trouble, and that the worst part is that it does not seem to bother them. Formerly, they would sit down and talk it out anJ take advise given, but now they want no help and act as if they know everything so want no advice. Judges and others dealing with those arrested must be very careful under existing laws that they hold to the rights of those arrested, do not mistreat them or promise them anything if they cooperate. Prisoners can call any name they wish and the only way they can be handled is through the judge, the Under such a setup the sheriff said. prisoner takes advantage of legal rights.
