Show North Summit people who attacked the beautiful Coalville Coal-ville LDS tabernacle with wrecking equipment in the wee hours of March 3, 1971, must be very, very proud of this boxed feature story in last Friday'sSalt Lake Tribune: Trib-une: STAINED GLASS LIVES ON . Seven stained glass windows win-dows from the much-disputed Coalville Tabernacle, Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, are being used to decorate a downtown private liquor club which opened Wednesday night. Randy Richins, manager, D. B. Cooper's, 19 E. 2nd South, said the windows were purchased from a private party who said she picked them up at an auction. He declined to say how much the club paid for them. Reed E. Brown, president of Summit LDS Stake, said three of the large windows from the old tabernacle-torn tabernacle-torn down March 3, 1971, despite v i go ro us protests from many circles were used in a new stake house. Hundreds of smaller windows win-dows were sold at auction, he said. End of Tribune story. All the thousands of devout de-vout and sincere worshippers worship-pers who spent hours in prayer beneath these lovely, devotion-inspiring windows will no doubt be glad to know that the stained glass is now looking down upon booze-inspired, Godless revelry. Do you suppose the next group of windows, saved by scavengers from the demolished de-molished House of God, will show up in a so-called massage mas-sage parlor? Well, I got the bill for the repair job I mentioned here last week. (Accidentally (Accident-ally backed into an Opel, hardly felt, never heard, the impact, but I dented the grille.) The bill will be $31.00. I'll bet that grille can be straightened from inside with one blow from a rubber hammer. But no. I gotta buy a new one. School opened with a real vengeance at Morgan High School Friday morning. Either somebody doesn't care for Old MHS or they couldn't think of a better place to discard the family garbage, It was a skunk, very dead and extremely stinky, on the front steps of Morgan High. This black and white kitty had apparently been teased and angered with a very long stick just before it was killed. kill-ed. It was an unpleasant mess. Still, it wasn't nearly such a mean trick as my brother and I perpetrated on the teacher of country school in Nebraska. After every one had gone home we tied a very big and very dead bull-snake on the front door knob, knocked on the door and ran like crazy. When she jerked the door open the dead snake swungin against her legs (scuse, limbs) and she screamed bloody murder. Somehow it came back to my brother and me-and Dad was on the school board. We not only got suspended we got walloped. Mac. |
