Of course, a headache is a gerat saver of food an dif we get into a bigger war than we are in now, food will be a factor worth considering. The reason headaches save so much food and if we get into a bigger lives on aspirin and bromos, and has little interest in savory re-pasts. We can look forward to the coming year in having the Society of Ditch Jumpers Who Didn't make It swell by leaps and bounds. In fact the leaps and bounds will be the cause ' of the enlarging of tnose ranks. The society has now reached the point where it is a vital political factor and one that the politicians must consider when they seek office. All the society asks for is water proof clothing and narrower ditches, which is not much to ask for in these times. We can look forward to a com-plete Republican set of o'fficers at the Court House. They were sworn in Tuesday and they will be sworn at for the next two years. We can look forward to the bas-ketball season wherein the side-line coaches pick the Winners be-fore hand and then have their dope upset by a bunch of dopes who don't realize what they are doing. We can look forward to a des-erted town each Friday night, as the fans take in the games, either at home or someplace else. We can look forward to spring when we have our usual light zephyrs, and the usual debating about first crop or second crop seed, with the result that the choice makes one look forward to weather reports and keeping an anxious eye on the frost. We can look forward to the af-ter effects of the 'frost when it comes with the resulting disast-rous losses. Close at hand we can look for-ward to March 15 and our trouble will be that we will look forward to it and then it will be here and we have made no effort to divvy up With Uncle Sam, fifty-fift- y. So hundreds wil work far into the late night the last day arriving at a figure that will show them a small profit and a bigger one for Uncle. That is one time of the. year when children are looked upon as something besides trouble, and many a man is thankful he has a lot of little deductions run-ning about the house. Also at this time of the year Lathel Callister is the most envied man in west Millard with his brood of 13, and no sign of the caboose. A family picture is a waste of money for them as it changes too often but a family like that is worth considering when the in -- come tax man breathes close to the back of your neck. Mr. Callister has a farm as a sideline. We can look forward to the live stock show, Days of the Old West and all other celebrations such as the Fourth of July, the Twenty-Fourt- h, and if our New Wear's re-solutions hold out until then they will cause no headaches. We can look forward to the Deerhunters dance ( and you can use your imagination on that one) and know that it wil cause a headache of monumental propor-tions. We can look forward to Thanks-giving when the biggest headache is the one the turkey has. And last we can look forward to Christmas and start planning our Christmas shopping as it will be here before we know it. Well, as least we can look for-ward to something this year and we can dream, can't we? And here is hoping your headaches are few and far between this year. Toots. Oak City Mae H.

We all know - or should know - that it occupies an import-- ! ant place in the affairs of this nation and the world. In spite ol a relatively small population, Utah has been important because of the pioneering spirit of its people. The state's famous sons and daughters who have been leading the nation in the fields of science, art, in-dustry, agriculture and govern -- ment, are products of a superior environment. Utah is now entering a new era of industrial expansion and scenic attractiveness to tourists. For full realization of its possibilities, how-ever, Utah needs the backing of all its citizens. As a keynote to the events of each new year, therefore, the Sons of Utah Pioneers are asking the citizens of this state to observe "Know Your Utah" Week, Jan. 4 to 10, 1951. Let us each resolve to learn more about our state. Only in this way will we keep alive the pioneering spirit which will con-tinue to bestow upon us all the blessings of the abundant life. Boyd and Beatrice Taylor Schena of Abraham, have a new daughter at their home. The baby girl was born Dec. 21 at the Fillmore hos-pital. Test Tube Ys. Polio For generations polio was ac-cepted as one of the "mystery dis-eases" of mankind, an elusive de-stroyer and crippler, striking un-predictably with epidemic force. Today, medical science knows a great deal about polio. The "mys-tery" phase is past. The period of exploration, discovery and even-tual conquest is well under way. With funds provided by the March of Dimes, the nation's top scientists are hard at work in hos-pital and university laboratories, exploring every reasonable ap-proach that may lead to the ulti-mate control of polio epidemics and conquest of the disease as an individual affliction. The recent discovery that polio virus could be grown in test tubes, using non-nervo- tissue as the culture medium, has been ac-claimed as a new milestone in polio research. It has greatly widened the field for the research scientists in their efforts to find a vaccine, drug or serum effective against infantile paralysis. In its thirteen years of exist-ence, the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis has authorized the expenditure of $11,753,736 in March of Dimes funds for re-search. Of this amount, $3,841 158 has been granted in the field of virus research, while $2,912,578 has been allocated to study of prevention and treatment of the disease's crippling after-effect- s. There is a sound basis for the hope that some day polio will be controlled or wiped out by science through the March of Dimes.
