The dirt path linking tent to tent though told you that it was no mall. But make nounistake, these store goods, though different, are still a prize. Welcome to Traders Row - a place bom out of the mountain man rendezvous. A place where beads, leathers, and fur pelts replace shirts, ties and dresses, and beef jerky sticks are treated like candy. And here the only dress considered appropriate is either Native American leathers or mountain man garb. The 6th annual Silverado Mountain Man Rendezvous at Antelope Island was Saturday and Sunday. It was only the second year the two-da- y event, generally the last weekend in April, was open to the public. This years rendezvous, again held at the historic Garr Ranch House from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. both days, had more than 200 participants from Nebraska to Sandy, while an estimated 2,000 attended. Events included a black powder muzzle-loadin- g and shooting competition on Saturday and a pistolshooting competition on Sunday. Both events were sponsored by the Mountain Men of the Wasatch of Salt Lake. It is just like going back and doing what this sacred land was made for, said Don Elk Eagle, better known as Don Kirk of North Salt Lake. Kirk, organizer of Traders Row, said that at age 74 he continues to get involved in this activity because it gets him out of the city life zoo. Here, it is not hell with you, hurrah for me, he said.

They get tired of falsehoods, he said. Kirk is not the only local resident fascinated by the annual event. Ive always had a fascination of the Native Americans and the wild frontier, said Ogden resident Lee Williamson. Williamson, known for his bead and leather supplies, said he feels the spirit of the buffalo everytime he returns to the island. Williamson said he was the last person to take a buffalo off the island before the state took full ownership in 1981. He cant remember the exact date, but the mountain man wannabe does admit to shooting the buffalo with an African elephant gun he owned. And while Williamson peddles beads and stories, a neighboring Building communities focus of May family conference Foundations for the Rest of Your Life is the theme of the 15th annual Families Alive conference at Weber State UniversiMay 1 ty.

COMBINED NOTICE Ties From page 1 home alone for a short time, she discovered that her dog had killed her pet parakeet. Ami became very upset, looking forward to her mothers comforting arms upon her arrival home. But Andrea answered Ami's need through an unsolicited visit soon after Amis discovery. Andrea really helped calm me down, Ami said. Its a good thing because my mom was in as big of a panic as I was when she found out what had happened." This same third sense seemed to come into play again the day Ami and her husband, Alan Seeley, visited Kaysville Elementary to look into registering Andelyn for kindergarten. The Layton family lives within the boundaries of Whitesides Elementary; however, the parents believed registering Andelyn in Kaysville Elementary, which has an open enrollment, would be more accome modating because of their arrangements. On their way to the office, Ami and Alan happened to notice Andrea in the hallway. After a brief reunion, Andrea advised the parents to select D track as she was the teacher. Ami said the incident is just one example of the many ways Andrea continually finds to help other peo- Ami said she is continually surprised to discover what a talented reader Andelyn already is becoming. She reads all sorts of things I know I couldnt have read at that age, Ami said. And I think its great. Andrea just really stresses that a child who can read has and can do many other things because of that confidence. While Andrea is slow to talk of her accomplishments in teaching, she does admit to being a much better instructor than she was when she began in her profession years ago. Andrea attributes her teaching success to the lessons of time and association. Its different than when I first taught school, Sheffield said. After being a parent and a grandparent, its easier to have understanding. Its easier to have unconditional love. day-car- ple.

Some of the students who ap- plied for jobs with Herm Hughes construction admitted they only did so because the time slots were filled with other desirable positions. . Although all students were un- able to talk to the employers of their choice, there were several that seemed to know exactly what they wanted to do in the future. Many of the youth who were hired for the jobs available had prior experience or knew about someone that worked in the field. Employers said attitude was an important factor in their selection.
