Show Vard and Stake Members Get Logs for Lumber The first project launched toward to-ward the actual construction of the new Parowan Third ward-Parowan ward-Parowan Stake recreation hall was carried to a very successful conclusion last week and this when 40,000 feet of fine yellow pine timber was cut down, made ready for hauling, and then delivered de-livered to the Roland Anderson sawmill at Enoch to be sawed into lumber for the new building. build-ing. Twenty-three men with power sawing and logging equipment, went to the Houston flat section of the Dixie National forest, lying ly-ing south of the Mammoth Creek last Thursday and cut down and made ready for loading, 57 trees containing an estimated 40,000 feet of lumber. Then on the first two or three days of this week men with trucks went up and hauled the logs to the sawmill at Enoch. The logs will be sawed soon and the lumber from them will be stored away in a good place for seasoning to be used in the proposed new stake and Ward recreation center. Another 30,000 feet of spruce timber, located in Sage flat on the Dixie forest, just below Midway, Mid-way, which will also be used to make lumber for the building, will be chopped and hauled to one of the nearby sawmills right away. Jess Guymon is head of the committee in charge of getting get-ting this project under way. |
