Show MILLARD COUNTY CHRONICLE ' Delta, Utah. Thurs., April 20,1950 Mr. and Mrs. Melvin Luke, who have been Delta visitors at the home of their daughter, Mrs. Wil-lar- d Stephenson, left Monday to return to their home in Rigby, Ida-ho". We are an official car checking station. Peterson Motor Company Chatter Box Dear Suzy, It doesn't seem to make sense to blame the new hospital for the influx of moths around these parts at the present time but such is the ease and the hospital was the cause of it all. The moths came about in a rather complicated man ner, but they are here now and at times almost blot out the sun. The reason for the moths being here is the fights held last Satur-day between the Pride of East Mil lard and the Pride of West Mil-lard. East Millard fans came over rather rabid and wanted to back their contestant with monetary for titude, which they did. In fact they backed him so vigorously that they dug so deep in the purses they got out bills that had been out of circulation since the panic of 1907. Now these same bills are frisk-ing about Delta enjoying the sun-shine and the freedom they have gained after such a long confine-ment. The moths hopped out of the purses when they opened them & that is the reason we can now blame the hospital for the moths. Into each life a little rain must fall but those pennies from heaven are always welcome, even though they are a little antique. Layton Bishop is now a member of the Society of Ditch Jumpers Who Didn't Make It. It is a long story how he got that way but it is worth relating. It seems that he and his brother Clark, were leveling some land for Layton and Clark was running the tractor and M'iskin scraper. He had a rope tied around his waist so to be served as rough as Ken was. Toots. that he could trip the scraper when it was full and was doing his work right well until the pin broke When the pin gave loose the scrap er stopped but the tractor kept right on going. Clark happened to still be on the tractor at the time and when the rope tightened up Clark did a flip flop that would shame Carl Townsend and landed with a thud on the ground. The tractor was still running and Layton seeing the loose tractor fig ured he might as well claim it be-cause if no one wanted it, is might come in handy about the farm. He gave chase and finally ran it down just before it went into the drain. He was quite annoyed when it turned out to be his own tractor in the first place. Well, Clark is getting along in years and the fall did him no good. In fact it injured his leg and gave him quite a limp. It now came time for Layton to help Clark so they went to Clark's farm where he was irrigating. It was necessary to cross the drain and change the stream so Layton volunteered to do it. There was a small flume over the drain which Clark was going to take to get to the other side, and Layton, not be-ing as young as he figured it was better to take the flume instead of making a leap over the drain. The 2 men crept along the flume Clark with his poor leg, and Lay-to- n full of helpfulness and vigor. About half way over Clark lost his balance and started to fall .As he did he reached out to grab Lay ton and instead of getting hold of him gave him a push instead. Rapid fire thinking on Layt's part showed that he must leap from the flume to dry ground or take a dunking. It is not known how long the thanking process took but it is known that Layt landed smack in the middle of the drain. These drains are not quite the thing to land in as they not only have water in them but also a nice bottom of gooey black mud, that also has an odor hardly pleasing to one's nose. Anyway we have Layt in the drain and automatically in the SDJWDMI. He is now the newest member of that exclusive society and incidentally the smelliest. Ken Carroll is in a Salt Lake hospital realizing the well-know- n truth that when you get past 20 years old you watch motorcycles and don't ride them. Youth must be served and so must old age, but it doesn't have Wedding Dance To Honor Couple; Mr. and Mrs. Marlow Crupper will be honored at a wedding re-ception and dance on Friday night in the Hinckley high school gym-nasium.
