We feel certain that they will be rewarded with an outstanding dedication and July 4th celebration. If you haven't already planned to attend the pow-woyou should do so now. Things will get underway at 5:30 a.m. Saturday morning, and will run almost continually through Monday evening. There will be a sunrise service all three mornings, dance contests each day. the crowning of a Miss Ute Tribe Saturday, devotional Sunday. One of the highlights of the celebration will be a 4th of July Parade at 5 p.m. Sunday, followed by a fabulous fireworks display at 10 p.m. Of course the main feature Monday will be the dedication program at the Bottle Hollow Resort, scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. The affair is to be held w at the resort, with the public invited. n The dollar located on the shores of resort, the new Bottle Hollow Reservoir, will be open for the public use following the dedication. It will present a vast new opportunity of employment and service for the Ute people, as well as an attractive tourist and recreational facility for the multi-millio- area. This new unit is part of the Ute Tribe overall development program, which is aimed at providing total employment for Tribal members, as well as a greater economic base for the tribe. With the tremendous shift to recreational activities in our nation.wc feel that the investment in this new facility is sound, and should bring a return to the tribe over the years. The Ute Tribe is leading the way for many such tribes throu-ou- t the nation. They are being looked up to as a group who has made great progress in economic advancement during the past few years, as well as provide educational and cultural advantages for their members. We again offer our congratulations and best wishes on the celebration this weekend at Ft. Duchesne. We feel that tribal leaders arc to be commended for their efforts in this undertaking. TZiUXZ Workshop held on the I prevention of suicide Are people who commit suicide mentally Are suicidal tendencies inherited? How does the suicide rate among Ute Indians compare with the national average? Discussion around these and other searching questions highlighted a two day workshop in suicide prevention recently held at Todd Elementary School. The purpose of the workshop was to call attention to the alarmingly high suicide rate among Indian people and to begin to develop a program whereby help can be given for problems leading to suicide. The workshop was sponsored jointly by the Bureau of Indian Affairs Branch of Social Services Mental Health Program and the Ute Tribe Alcoholism Program. The workshop came as a result of several people from this area attending a national workshop on suicide prevention in Los Angeles in January 1971. Those attending the Los Angeles workshop were Dee Wilcox, Director, Bureau of Indian Affairs Social Services; Reynold Brown, Director, Ute Tribe Alcoholism Center; Dr. Lynn Ravsten, Consulting Psychologist for the Bureau of Indian Affairs and Public Health Services; Robert Hicks, Tribal Probation Officer; and Raymond Wissiup, Tribal police ill? Dear Editor; I think It if only appropriate that some recognition ba given Mra. Cllxle Hooper for her outstanding service to the community and county as the school and county nurse. Mrs. Hooper has done an outstanding job and certainly deserves some recognition for her unselfish and efficient work in behalf of the residents of our county. Our loss will certainly be Idaho's gain when Mrs. Hooper and her husband, Don, and family leave our community and go to their new job assignment in Idaho. Thanks again Cllxle, for your many hours of genuine concern and love for those you have served. Good luck and God bless you in your new home in Idaho. Sincerely yours G. Frank Madsen, M. D. Dear Editor; There is a wide spread idea that the name of the Mt. Emmons cemetery has been changed to the Altamont Cemetery. This is erroneous for several reasons, is no one in the State of Utah to whom the authority is delegated to change the name of a cemetery. 2. The bureau of Vital Statistics keeps a record of where each person is burled, therefore the place of burial is one of the most important pieces of Information on the death certificate. 3. The Altamont ward was formed through a merger of Bon eta, Alton ah, Mt. Emmons and Upalco wards. Therefore the Mt. Emmons Cemetery is no more Altamont than the Boneta, Altonah and Upalco. Prior to March 1918, more than S3 years ago, and long before there was such a place as Altamont, a group of the Mt. Emmons pioneers put up the money out of thlr own pockets to purchase the land where the Mt Emmons cemetery is now located. Designated it as a cemetery and gave it that name. Today most of the pioneers with very few exceptions, along with their wives and many of their decendents are burled there. In the early 1940's the Mt. Emmons people under the direction of Bishop Walter Kerkselk who was then Bishop of the Mt. Emmons ward, purchased the posts and wire and built a fence around it, and planted trees, throughout the plot. later on certain parties moved in and took over, and changed the name with all disregard to what it did in causing loss and confusion to the previous records or how the decendents of those people felt about it. Most communltes try to keep something in memory of the pioneers such as names, buildings etc. But here they don't even let their final gave it. It seems that people especially those engaged in Genealogy work, should know how important it is to keep the records correct in every way. And when a cemetery name is changed it soon loses its identity and after a few years all that valuable information found on old head stones is lost to a great extent because there is no cemetery to correspond with that on the death certi- ficate so those records are practically worthless. We find a great many people who have spent a great deal of time and money in a vain search for the burial place of some of their ancestors, because some one has changed the name of the cemetery. When the church and government spends millions of dollars in order to preserve those records, it is absolute foolishness to think they are going to give anybody and everybody the authority to change the name of a cemetery any time they take the notion. Those who feel they have that authority would do well to talk with the County Attorney and learn the facts before they start manking any changes.
