Harmonettes Will Sing at Stampede l I- - v f - T -- i I" 1 f!A : 1 , j The Delta Harmonettes, ac-companied by Homer Christen-se- n and his bass fiddle, will ap-pear at the Ute Stampede held in Nephi next week. On the front row are Bonnie Black and Homer Christensen.. On the back row are Lila Mae Sampson and Cherie Hannifin. This group is becoming more popular and more in demand after each performance they appear at. According. to Patrolman Sher-wood who took this picture, the Harmonettes were one of the popular attractions last year at the Stampede. Chatter Box Dear Suzy, Jim (I was about to call him Honest Jim, but realizing that I always tell the truth, had to forgo that title) String on His Finger Bullock lost his car the other day and didn't know where to find it. It seems that Jim came to town to buy a little something and par-ked the family car about town. He made his purchases and then on wanting to go home couldn't find the car. He searched for two hours and gave up, finally enlisting the ser-vices of the law to help him loc-ate it. He thought it was stolen, but the law knew where it was all the time as it was plastered with tickets for parking by a fire hydrant. Jim was sorry afterwards that he called the law into the pic ture as he had to do some settling up to help the finances of the fair city of Delta before he could get his car out of hock. What Jim had better to is go back to the horse tand buggy days, and when he forgets where he left the plug he can rest assured that he can hitchhike home and the plug will make it also. Too, Mrs. Bullock is making little strings to tie on Jim's fingers on his frequent trips to town so that he can recall certain things and where he left them. If Jim was a frequenter of the Joy Water Store I could understand how he got muddled, but as far as I know Jim does not look upon the wine when it is red ,some say he pre-fers white wine, instead. Bishop Bird is keeping his flock on its toes, or at least he nas kept them on their feet, while the new church building is in the mak-ing. It is reported by those who have done work there that there are 23 acres of shingles needed on the roof and those who have done the shingling also report that they much prefer being on their feet after shingling than on other parts. It is a wholesome situation and one which the congregation should carry on through life. If you care for camping out and need a little new equipment' and want it cheap go into Keith How High Shall I Cut It? Ross, as he has lost interest in camping and its various pleasures;?). It seems that Keith has always wanted camp-ing equipment so that he could take his family and get away from it all, go out and commune with nature and enjoy life away from hair clippings. So Keith up and bought a nice outfit to realize his life's ambition and took off last Sunday for Fish-les- s Lake. He planned on parking the equipment' under a tree and live the life of Reilly, if not of the society, even if all he ever does in it is pay his dues. It seems that Tom was ask-ed to go set a headgate so that a farmer could get a stream of water. Tom wasn't familiar with that particular headgate and was told that hip boots would be am-ple to make- the adjustment. Tom slipped into a pair of boots and-wen- t forth to do his duty. He stepped down into the water to take a little batch o trash away from the gate, and was then going to nimbly jump across the narrow opening, standing in wat-er to his knees and with boots on. He made a mighty effort and found himself damp about the neek and ears where water was lapping on him, and he also found that a pair of boots can take up a lot of water and make a big load. In fact he carried so much water away from the canal that the company has made him rent three shares to cover the loss they suffered. Tom felt so bad about it all that he went out the next day and got winterized, complete with oil change, grease job and thor-ough flushing of his radiator and a new filling of anti-freez- e. 8,038 people turned out to see the fireworks display put on by the American Legion Post 117, and out of that group the last two figures (38) turned out to the dan-ce to help them pay for the fine display. The fireworks fizzled up in the air and looked beautiful, and the dance just fizzled up per-iod. The Legion will have a pull a California Swifty on the people next year. They can give them a Ross. He searched and seafwhed for a tree by which to park his stuff but his search was all in vain. He reports that the trees were so much in use that the dogs were having trouble', and having to make long trips to find one. He felt so bad about it all that his wife bought him a copy of the song "Trees" and now Keith in esconced at home twanging away on his banjo, with a for sale sign on the nice new equipment. After working long hours all his life to get some money saved up for camping equipment Keith now finds that the "wilds" are not to be found and there is no place to put the stuff unless it is on his back yard. Tom Allred, local watermaster and man about the reservoir, has been initiated into the Society of Ditch Jumpers Who Didn't Make It. He is a welcome addition to free display of fireworks but char-ge them for parking space. At 10c a car they could have paid for it all, and for $1.00 a car they could have balanced the U. S. Treasury. Maybe Keith could set up his camping equipment at a dance like this and be sure that he wouldn't be bothered. At least he would have lots of room, but on the other hand he Would still be without a tree. Post 117 put on a mighty fine celebration for the Fourth and up to date have gotten little thanks for it. It's a great life if you weaken. Toots. Wedding Oaiests t Farmingtoii "Tiding reception Friday night Farmington honored Mr. and 'in , Mavnard Morton, who were J ' 'earlier that day in the c" lake" temple.

A hypo-thetical building measuring 30 by 40 feet is used as an example. First, figure the diagonal of the building. The diagonal will equal the square root of the sum of the squares of any two adjacent sides. In this example, the diagonal is 50 feet. Next, drive stake A to mark one corner. Drive a nail in the center of the top of the stake. Then place stake B, with a nail in its top, ex-actly 40 feet away. To establish the corner at D, measure 30 feet from B and 50 feet from A. For C, measure 40 feet from D and 30 feet from A. The diagonal from C to B should be 50 feet. jlr and Mrs. Al Willden and son and Mr. and Mrs. Heber Wil-kin- s and son returned to Delta Saturdav from a four-da- y trip to San Francisco, where they had been to take Mrs. E.
