Rose Culture Is Discussed A color movie and a discussion on rose culture by Mr. Verl Jacob-se- n of Oak City highlighted the evening when Sutherland Garden Club played hostess to the garden clubs of Sugarville, Abraham, Oasis and Deseret. The meeting was held in the Sutherland School Cafeteria Wednesday, July 11. The film, produced by the Jack-- , Rose Gardens, explain-ed the colors and types of roses, their uses in landscaping, and just how new rose varieties are devel-oped. Mr. Jacobsen brought sam-ples of roses from his garden which he 'found grew best in Millard county and discussed their culture in our climate and soils. At the close of the meeting, ice-col- d watermelon was served to the 38 ladies attending. Mr. Orran Ashby is in California on business this week. Vows Exchanged In Temple Rites Married in impressive temple rites Tuesday, July 17 were Miss Georgia Adams, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alec Adams of Delta, and Mr. Orville Huff, son of Mr. and Mrs. William Huff of Spanish Fork. President Anderson of the Manti temple officiated at the cere mony. Miss Adams is a graduate of the BYU where she was affiliated with the Alta Mitra social unit. She has been teaching English and speech at the Spanish Fork Junior high school. Mr. Huff is also a graduate of the BYU where he was active in musical circles. He, too, is a tea-cher in the Spanish Fork school system. After a honeymoon at Grand Lake in Colorado, the young cou-ple will make their home in Span-ish Fork wheer they both plan to continue teaching this coming fall. Before her marriage, Miss Adams was honored at a bridal tea Fri-day afternoon at the home of her parents in Delta. Receiving guests were she and her mother, her mothe-r- in-law, and two sisters-in-la- Mrs. Mary Garbett tit Eureka, and Mrs. Olea Sargent of Springville. Assisting in the gut room were Genevieve Larson of Spanish Fork and Carol Hansen of Delta. Colleen Barben, Joyce Miller and Linda Barben were gift bearers. Serving cooling refreshments were Jeneal Judd, Elaine Gardner, Inga Mae Memmott, and Gevene Adams. I The young couple were honored at a shower in Spanish Fork Sat-urday evening and at a reception on Thursday following their mar-riage. Chatter Box Dear Suzy, The Boss looked a me the other day and asked when I was going back to work and answer your many letters. He said the "read-ers" were wondering why I hadn't written sooner. Meek like, I said I would answer you, but I should have said what I thought and that was where did he get that idea of "readers"? I always thought that those who subcribed to this paper were not familiar with the English language and were not to classed as readers. The only rea-son that I can see for them to take the paper is that they have the $3.50, which seems most necessary to get the paper. On the other hand, I don't think there are many who can read ab-out the Chronicle office, from the errors that are made each week in what is said and told. So if there fre a few who take tthe paper who have learned to read I will try and give "all." Not really "all" but enough to make it inteersting. First we have a certain Mr. Lund who it seems got involved with a local drug emporium, one Baker Catchall and who appropriated cer- - neighbors. When Ken Cahoon takes a stream he floods Earl Kelly's gar-age; Earl has a mania for filling up Bill Starley basement; Bill pre-fers to irrigate Orlin Hunsaker's lot ,and Orlin likes to fill Dick Pet-- 1 tain articles tnat were not nis or had he paid for them. So the long arm of the law, or possibly a short one, reached out and snapped him from circulation, with a chance to go to the state place for those who are delinquent in payments and kinds. He had a partner, one Peterson, who was also taken aw-ay from local haunts. When Judge Hoyt handed down the decision that would cause those men to look at their hole cards, the one Peterson demurred and wanted a little time to think it oover before the hoosegow beck-oned. But not so the other, the one Lund. He told the judge that he wanted an early sentence so that he could get to the "Point of the Mountain Country Club" before the Fourth of July, because the in-mates there were planning a mam moth celebration and he was not one who would want to miss it. Judge Hoyt was not one to hold ersons' basement and knock down Bill's fence. On the other side of the street Dqc Black orders the water and lets his wife irrigate; while Lynn Johnson of Telluride fame, waters his lot, George Roundy and parts south of Delta. So when Lafe got the water last week he did right by himself and watered everything from John Steele's place to the old Dobson 'farm on the South Tract, taking care to give all the borrow pits a thorough soaking. It's nice to have a family move in and get into the spirit of things such as did Lafe and it shows that the "Good Neighbor Policy," might be bloody, but it's head is not bowed. And so to close, my good wom-an, in your last letter you asked me how to get a man. The only way I know of it to dress up like a chicken and lay for one. Toots. a man uacK iruin n ceieuiaLiun and as he signed and blotted the committment, Jack, the cigar smo-king Bennett, snapped the man Lund out of the door and on his way to the festivities. Sorry to state the man Peterson, who was held back, and wanted freedom more than a celebration was taken to the state Idontno-whatcalli- t" but he missed the cele-bration. Joe Mercer, local pill roller of sorts and eater of about anything, had the gals at the Hatch Eatator-iu-in a dither the other morning. I seems that Luella I Can't Sleep After Three AM McAllister went to work the other morning and found the joint (mean Hatch's Joint for Beef) all smattered in blood. She is the gory type and figured that all had not gone well the night be-fore with the boys about town and that they had taken o fisticuffs, scythes and such to settle a few disputes. Sorry to state Luella's balloon was let down and so was she when she found out the trouth of the matter. For the rook playing pill roller, the same Joe Mercer, had gone in-to the Hatch Coffee and Roll place the night before demanding food. He had a beef, and a justified one too, when he told the Patter of the Patties that he must have cut his tomatoes with a razor as they were sliced so thin that to make the world look brighter, all you had to do was hold them to your eyes and you would be seeing the world through rose colored glasses. Hatch the Hasty, took exception to the allegation, and stated in a loud voice that "when you could see through my tomatoes I will eat them myself." No sooner than he had said that Hatch the Tom-ato Eater was full of tomatoes, but it was a long and difficult pro-cess to get full of tomatoes, when they are sliced as thin as Hatch can slice them. Joe the Gyp was watching Hatch trying to fill up and he felt that he would like to fill up a little quicker than Hatch was so he as-ked for some cheese. Hatch was having a time eating his own to-matoes and told Joe, "If you want some cheese go cut it yourself." That was all that Joe wanted, and took himself to the kitchen so fast that the eye couldn't 'fol-low. He grabbed a large hunk of cheese and because it was free and he had a sharp knife, took a whack at it. His intention was good, but as he was a little greedy and a little hungry he took a lar-ger whack than he should and included his left thumb in the cut-ting. So if you want to raise a nice garden of thumbs see Joe, as his cuttings are superb, even though he may lose a little blood on the floor and on the sidewalk. Those who prefer green thumbs are en-couraged to enroll in the FFA. Lafe Morley has been taken into the hearts of the residents of 3rd west and 2nd north (if and when the JayCees ever get to putting up the signs) because he irrigates like all the rest of them in that area. It has been the custom in that portion of town for those who take the water to play hobb with the scallops 'n spice 'n everything nice by 1 : WATCH REPAIRING LUCILLE'S GLFT SHOP All Kind of Watches Reasonable Prices j Agency for Expert Watch Repairing j YOU ARE CORDIALLY INVITED TO JOIN WITH YOUR FRIENDS AND CELEBRATE PIONEER DAYS ...July 23rd and 24th at MW(5ISILEY Cute as a kitten!
