So says Joseph Shaw of the Cherokee County Herald In Alabama. Pioneer Day, 19691 To Utahns, this day means a great deal. Many states have their "pioneer days. or settlement days, and observe them as state holidays. None, we feel, have more significance to their people than does the July 24th observance here. When we think of pioneers, we remember the hardships, deprivations and suffering which our hardy progenitors endured. We realize too, that they carved an existence out of sagebrush flats and dusty deserts. But, there Is also a sad note In remembering. When we see homesteads which were created with sweat and tears into something of useful beauty, only to have little or no maintenance or upkeep work done on them to this day, we wonder what the pioneers would feel If they returned. Many old buildings, although In a poor state of repair, are still being used. But most of these have long since deterlated to the point that they have lost their stately beauty. The land was settled and beautified for us. We feel that many of us are falling way short of upholding this heritage which was handed to us. Alexander Pope, an early English "There should be scholar, wrote: as little merit In loving a woman for her beauty, as a man for his prosperity, both being equally subject to change."
