Show , MILLARD COUNTY CHRONICLE Delta. Utah, Thurs.. March 2. 1950 Home Offers Variable Plan f " " - 'J VTOMWAilvoaAt I 41-0- " LR. ' $ 0 r-r, mmm rrl f 1 1 r fta r! First Floor jpll This home was designed with alternative exteriors and interi-ors, enabling the owner to choose the combination which suits his own needs best. Because of these optional major features, the dwel-ling has been selected by Amer-ican Builder magazine, 30 Church St., New York 7, N. Y., as its Plan No. 38. The two exteriors are the same except that one' has roof pitch than the other. The house as shown above has the more gently sloping roof.. The roof steeper provides an expansion attic where rooms might be added in the future. For either type of roof, Walter T. Anicka, the archi-tect, suggests that the color of the shingles form the basis for the entire exterior color scheme. The floor plan shown would be used with a basement. For a ss house, the stairway would be eliminated. This would leave space for a small utility' room where a heater could be installed. The living room-dinin- g room and the kitchen face the street. The bedrooms, overlooking the rear yard, are in the quietest part of the house. The house contains 1,020 square feet of space on the first floor. This figure would be useful in estimating cost of construction.' (Detailed estimating plans and a complete home planning packet of building information are avail-able from American Builder, 30 Church St., New York 7, N. Y. "fer to Plan No. 38.)

Mrs. Sterling Bennion was in Sugar City, Idaho0 last week to attend funeral services Saturday of her brother's wife) Mrs. John Ham-ilton. She returned to Delta Mon-day after a stop in Pocatello over Sunday with her daughter, Miss Marian Bennion, nutrition teacher there. Cha t ter Box Dear Suzy, Orran Ashby, local business man and I am using the term business-man very loosely, as you will note as this tale develops, drove into town the other day. Mr. Ashby operates a hardware and imple-ment store here, when not in Ariz-ona looking after his haciendo there and entertaining local visit-ors who throng Orran's home there from October to May. It may have been that the long drive from Phoenix to Delta, and the rather warm weatther encoun-tered on the way gave him a slight loss of memory, or at least affect-ed his business acumen, for no sooner had he hit town than he was minus $100, and at the hands of one Ralph Morrison, also a local businessman, but one who keeps his wits well about him at all times. Ralph had been selling tickets to the hospital benefit fights' and had failed to turn in his final tick-ets, so he told Orran that he had 18 tickets left that he would be glad to sell to Orran for $100.00. Orran peeled out his check book and paid off Ralph, and pocketed the tickets. Then remembering that he wanted to see the fights he asked Ralph when they were. And Ralph answered, "Son, if you are going to sleep, drowse in Arizona and not these parts, because the fights ave been over for a week or more." Orran tore the tickets into small bits and let them cascade down like new fallen snow, which plea-sed him no end as he has not seen any snow come nigh onto six winters. Which again proves that every cloud has a silver lin-ing because even though Orran did not see the fights he felt that he got his $100 worth seeing the snowfall caused by the torn tick-ets. Which proves also that we do definitely need a hospital because if Orran catches Ralph up a dark alley some night Ralph may have the need of a hospital, and one soon. I have a firm reason to believe that Quin Shepherd pulled a fast one on members of the local Gar-den Club. He made a' number of deals with them whereby they would buy loads of manure from his turkey farm, much to the dis-comfiture of the neighbors where it was unloaded, as it has a very violent aroma. 'Maybe Quin fig-ures that the members will be so busy putting out Air Wicks that they won't have time to do their pardpniner. thus savin? manv hus-- bands from doing work when they could just as well be fishing. Take as a spic'ific case the Wan-da Beckwith homestead. Two loads there have caused Rose McCullough to move to Hinckley while things clear up, and Warren Henderson gives thanks every morning as he leaves that he has a store in Oak City to while away the day from the smell. Wanda prides herself on her gardening and works hard at it and beams as cars slowly drive past looking the joint over. Not so now. People drive miles out of their way just to miss the un-pleasantness of driving past or within a block or two. It looks as though Wanda is wasting her time gardening this year unless she starts keeping skunks to com-bat the odor, as people soon lose interest in a thing of beauty when it smells to high heaven. Bishop Black has called twice asking her to do something about it as attendance at the Second ward has dropped to an e low. Bishop says that the few who do attend can not keep their minds on. their religion as they are all thinking of the hell of a smell. He is preparing a sermon for the members telling them thatt hell not only will be hot but it will have the same smell.He thinks it will cause a very good impress-ino- , provided they will come to church to listen. Well, if that manure is as ef-ficacious as it is odoriferous the place will blossom like the rose, but it may not smell so sweet. Dewey Sanford was in the of-fice the other day looking at the new batch of pups. He asked if they were Democrats or Republi-cans. No one know the answer so they asked Mr. Sanford what was the difference. Said Dewey, "they are Democrats when real young, but when they get their eyes op-en they are Republicans." Imagine that from Dewey. Toots. Teachers to Meet In Fillmore Teachers of west Millard will travel to Fillmore Friday afternoon to join the teachers' of the east side of the county at a leadership meeting held there. Schools will be closed in time for teachers to travel to this meeting. State officials will be present. A report of the Ogden professional conference will be made to the teachers at this time and local problems will be discussed. Election of officers will be made at this time. Heretofore they have been made at a fall meeting held by the Millard Teachers' associa-tion, but it is deemed wise to do it at this time, inasmuch as there are several meetings during the summer for officers to attend, and incoming officers would benefit from these meetings rather than outgoing ones. A bus will leave Delta at 12:00 o'clock. Any teachers desiring to ride the bus may do so. Mrs. Vance Wilson and son, Bill om Fillmore were in Delta Sun-l- y where they met Editor Wilson turning from Los Angeles. tl Prize: Model 220 Modern Desk New Home Machine (Retail value: $257.00) nd Prize: Model 626 Walnut Console New Home Machine (Retail value: $185.00) rd Prize: Model Leatherette Portable New Home Machine (Retail value: $143.50) H'Come in for complete details uiil Sh'e DELMART 1 . teeth II son9 cin0 (or f in Yy4-fo- SCCea teetb. io a n UnW ClosoW or $?ZZ.
