Show Millard cotrtiTY Chronicle : Delta, Utah, Thurs., March 30,1950 Mi', and Mrs. M Ward Moody and Mr and Mrs Fenton Gardner attended the meeting of the As-sociated Civic Clubs of Southern and Eastern Utah Saturday in St. George. Morning and afternoon sessions were held, and a banquet at night was given by the St. George Chamber of Commerce. tyggZZZ SUCCESS STORY OF THE MONTH It took Berneice Smith of Enter-"- prise, Ore., nearly 20 years to qualify for her first salaried job, and the process included not only education, but r - - 1 repeated sur- - gery and hos- - , x pitalization in I - order to over-- S2)T?Sk-- J come a crip- - j - pling handi- - ff ' cap- - Her y painful j r S battle was vm- - dertaken in 4 opposition to the advice of family and Berneice Smith friends and at times she appeared doomed to defeat, but as she her-self puts it: "It hasn't been easy but I love it. And to think that in a few months I may be doing some interesting, worthwhile work to imagine doing what I had given up all hopes of ever doing!" Because Berneice Smith has overcome odds that to another might have seemed insuperable, the National Society for Crippled Children and Adults has presented her its "Who's Crippled?" cita-tion. The ceremony conferring the citation was held by the Oregon Society for Crippled Children and Adults in Portland. In addition to this honor, Miss Smith has been named "Citizen of the Week" by her native state of Oregon and by the city of Portland where she has made her home for the past year while taking her final business school training. Miss Smith's first job is as assisting secretary - stenographer for the Oregon Society during the 1950 Easter Seal campaign, a job which enables her to help others crippled as she herself has been. First afflicted with rheumatoid arthritis when she was 15, Miss Smith was completely immobilized within three months. Three years later, she underwent her first sur-gery and was able to return to her high school studies in her home town of Enterprise for the next three years. Again at the age of 21 her ail-ment became progressively worse until she was confined entirely to a wheel chair and became a help- less cripple for the next 19 years. In the fall of 1947, the executive director for the Oregon Society for Crippled Children interested him-self in her case and learned that through surgery, Miss Smith's con-dition could be considerably helped. In spite of the advice of relatives and friends to avoid thi3 treatment, she entered the Emanuel Hospital in Portland and underwent ortho-pedic surgery which was made pos- sible by the financial assistance of the Oregon Society. Additional surgery was performed in January, 1948, and a long period of treat-ment ensued during which it was made possible for Miss Smith to get about on crutches. Fractures of several bones made two subsequent periods of hospital-ization necessary, but on Nov. 15, 1948, she was able to begin a course in business administration and stenography in Portland. Today, at 43, a newcomer in the business world, Miss Smith says in spite of the fact she may need still more surgery to improve her con-dition, "The future is like a many-side- d castle with myriad doors to be opened. That's how it feels to be walking ara:v."
