Show Gasuallj Obseioincj ;: . By Cliff Memmott A VALENTINE CAME A few days ago a clipping came in the mail, which was a part of Dan Valentine's column. ... It was about one of our neighbors, Aldon C. Fenn, of Myton. . . '. His record as a truck driver brought Dan's Valentine. Lest some of our readers read-ers might have missed it, I'm reprinting it in this week's Casually Casu-ally Observing Column with my congratulations to a man with a fine safety record. TODAY'S VALENTINE A Valentine today long past due to Aldon C. Fenn of Myton, Utah. Aldon is a true Knight of the road. . . . He's one of the fellows that maneuver these big gasoline trucks over the highways. And he's one of the best in the business. Aldon Fenn has driven a truck on Utah highways for more than 23 years without an accident, acci-dent, without as much as a dented fender. Through 23 years of heavy driving . . . from coast to coast, over mountains, through valleys . . . over all the hazardous passes of the Intermountain West, Aldon has wheeled his truck without an accident. In 23 years, he has never received re-ceived a traffic violation ticket in any form, not even for a minor infraction of the rules. A Valentine to you, sir, and many more happy, years of safe driving! co Here's a verse, that ain't funny; too much month, at the end of the money! co This little ditty contributed by Lucy Wooley Brown of Duchesne isn't so bad it is entitled: NOW Fluffy white snowf lakes float lazily down To hide all the grime and decay of the town With a mantle of diamonds that sparkle and glow And lend a clean peace to each place as we go On errands of joy and of mystery, too, Seeking gifts for each one. somthing different and new To delight, or intrigue or give gay charm as we Lay them down, stealthily underneath the bright tree. co A HAPPY NEW YEAR The time of the year has rolled around when we must bid goodbye to a pretty badly worn old year, and prepare for a brand new one. . . . I'm sure as we reflect back over the year, 1956, we can all find a few spots that we failed to take off the rough edges, and probably regret the fact that had we been just a bit more consistent, we would be farther along the road of security than we are t6day. THAT'S LIFE Put off till tomorrow to-morrow what should have been done today If I could overlook over-look my many imperfections and the things I failed to do, I'd have to classify 1956 as a pretty good year. MAY THE BEST be yous during dur-ing the coming year is the sincere wish and prayer of your editor, his family and all the gang at the office of the Record-Standard. co Next to knowing when to seize an opportunity, the most important thing in life is to know when to forego an advantage. ad-vantage. 30 |
