Garkane is one of six cooperatives, which own and direct the opera- tions of Deseret.

Anatole France UTAH FILES NOTICES OF INTENT TO SUE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OVER TITLE TO 18,784 ROADS IN 22 UTAH COUNTIES The State of Utah has completed filing a series of Notices of Intent (NOI) to initiate litigation under the Quiet Title Act for 18,784 roads in 22 rural Utah coun- ties. The NOIs were filed with the U.S. Department of Interior in anticipation of filing suit in federal court, as required by law. “We have worked closely with the counties to protect title on these roads and rights of way for a num- ber of years, but the federal government’s inaction has forced us to litigate,” said Governor Gary R. Her- bert. “We will continue to use every tool available to us, including negotiation and lawsuits, to quickly and permanently get title to our roads. We are intent to defend our rights, and this filing will force the federal government to respond.” This filing marks a major milestone in the work of the Public Lands Policy Coor- dination Office (PLPCO), the Attorney General’s Of- fice, the counties, and the Utah Association of Coun- ties to assert the State’s rights with respect to ac- cessing public lands under the provisions of R.S. 2477. Of the 18,784 included in the filing, 2,190 are Class B roads, and 16,594 are Class D roads. The State previously filed R.S. 2477 lawsuits over 94 roads in Garfield County on November 14, and 710 roads in Kane County on Novem- ber 10 and lawsuits in Juab, Emery and San Juan Coun- ties several years ago.

According to the Utah Safety Council, on average, 42 people die each year in Utah from alcohol-impaired driver crashes. December has been designated National Drunk and Drugged Driving Prevention Month (3D Month). The Utah Safety Council is joining with National, State and local highway safety officials to remind everyone who will be celebrating during the holidays that drunk driving takes lives. The following are some easy steps that any driver or pas- senger can follow to enjoy a safe and festive holiday without jeopardizing your life and the lives of others: Do not drink and drive. Convince friends to stay overnight, ride with someone else, or call a taxi for them. Also, be aware of other drivers who may have had too much to drink. Alcohol-impaired drivers drive at inconsistent speeds, change lanes frequently, disregard traffic signs and drive outside of lane markers. If you know of someone who is about to drive while impaired, take their keys and help them make other arrangements to get to where they are going safely. Plan a safe way home before the festivities begin. Before drinking, designate a sober driver and give that person your keys. If you are impaired, use a taxi, call a sober friend or family member, or use public transportation so you are sure to get home safely. If you see a drunk driver on the road, don’t hesitate to contact local law enforcement. Saving lives on our roads is a top priority and it takes everyone’s help. Make smart decisions and plan ahead to better assure a safe way home.

DECEMBER

The Bob Cats basket-ball team just keeps rolling along. Last Thursday night they met up with a tough Milford team. The Cats won 81 to 43, with Tyce Barney nailing 25 points, McCade Christian chipping in 20 followed by Dalan Bennett with 14. The Boys are continuing their very good team playing, with Tommy Adams getting a lot of assists. Saturday night the Cats traveled up to Wayne Co. to face up with the Wayne Badgers. Again they came away victorious with a 63 to 49 win. Dalan was high point man in this game with 27 points and followed by Tyce with 18. Tommy Ad-ams had 9 assists in this game. The last games of the calendar year are down in LaVerkin, both the boys and the girls have games against Cross Creek’s JV team and later against Diamond Ranch. Today December 22. Diamond Ranch is a league game for the boys. Mark your calen-dar, the first game of next year is January 4 and it is against Escalante here. On the 6th the Cats travel south down to Valley to get the new year off to a good start. The Lady Cats played four games last week. Wednesday night they also traveled over to Wayne. Wayne is a very good team and ranked 3rd in State. The Ladies played their best game of the year, with some really tough defense. The girls were leading the game up to 20 seconds left in the first half, only to see the Badgers steal the ball on three different plays and converted it into 6 points to take a 22 to 16 lead. With 2 minutes remaining the Cats crawled back into the game and only trailed by three and missed several shot to take the lead, Wayne fin-ished off the game with a 7 to 2 run, winning 40 to 32. At the Mesquite tourna-ment the girls came off with 4th place. They won their first game against Wells Nev. Team, coming from behind to take away a 43-39

win. Katelyn Parkin led the way with 14, mostly in the first half and Natasha Bar-ney ended with 12 mostly in the second half. The Girls played Virgin Valley Bull-dogs, who are a 4A team with really tall girls and lost by 15, but pretty well shut down their 6’ 4” girl to only 4 points. The final game went down to the wire, the Cats were behind by 10 to start the final quarter and cut the lead to two, but again they couldn’t buy a basket and with only two second, the final shot went long and the Cats finished a 38 to 36 loser. It was a fun tourna-ment and the girls picked up some badly needed ex-perience. The Bob Cat wrestlers went over to Parowan, a team that beat the Cats last year, by a score of 80 to 6, no that’s not a misprint. The tough guys are gain-ing a lot of competition and have some sickness on the squad that has cut into their scores. Kanab will be here to start the New Years on Jan. 11 and up to Gunnni-son for a match on the 12th.

Long time Vol-l e y b a l l Coach Troy Norris and his Wife Ann Marie are taking off time to watch their Chil-dren take part in their sports program. The Norris have been coaching for eighteen years and after finishing 3rd place for many years they broke through with a State Championship and have won State 3 out of the last 4 years. Their teams have set many records for matches won in a row and games won without a loss. This is no easy task, the Norris start out with kids in the 4th grade and work with them through High School. Volleyball is really hard to coach; you are only as good as your weakest player. Their son Trac is on a mis-sion to So. America and was ranked the number 1 fresh-man steeplechase runner in the Country. Kaliani the VB MVP player last year, is a freshman at UVU and is a starter on the very good Volleyball team at the Uni-versity. Thank you Norris, for all your hard work and enjoy your kids, they grow up way too fast.

Allie Beckstead, a stu-dent at Panguitch Elemen-tary in Miss Chidester’s 3rd Grade drew the win-ning design of the Garfield School District Christmas card. She was presented a “Polar Express” book by Superintendent Dalton. You may have heard about the holiday bonus the Garfield School Dis-trict employees received. I would like to remind you, all of the certified and clas-sified employees agreed

to a 4% cut to start the school year. This percent-age cut saved the District approximately $170,000 in gross payroll. Dental insur-ance premi-ums are no longer covered by the District; benefited em-ployees have the option to buy dental insurance if they choose. This benefit change saved

the District approximately $120,000. I know this has caused an increase hard-ship on the employees of the District. As part of the negotiations process, a holiday bonus was agreed upon by the employees and School Board. As previously agreed in the negotiations, full-time employees (40 hours per week) received $200 and part-time employees (15-39 hours per week) received

$100. The plan was to sell District surplus items to pay for the bonus. K-12 Funds were not used. The cost of the bonus will be $27,851.51 for the District. We have sold the following items to cover the cost of the bonus: I would like to extend a special holiday thank you to everyone who works to make our schools a better place for the students. To our faculty and staff, I ex-press our gratitude for your efforts to help the students in Garfield School District. To our volunteers, we thank you for your desire to make a positive difference in the schools. Thank you to our parents, grandparents and patrons who support the schools both financially and in your time and efforts to make our schools a better place. If we work togeth-er, we can accomplish this worthy objective.--Superintendent Ben Dal-ton

“It’s Not That Bad”

ASK A SPECIALISTRandom Acts of Kindness

Can Spread Holiday Cheer We are in the midst of the season of expressing grati-tude for our blessings and sharing gifts with friends and loved ones. Amid the gifting, let’s not forget to include kindness toward others. Kindness is associated with acts of charity; it is the quality of being warm-hearted, considerate, hu-mane and sympathetic. Kindness can become second nature to those who strive to become more aware of those around them. So what if you’re in a hurry at the store check out? Much good can be done if you pause to inquire how the person on the other side of the counter is doing during this busy season and wish them well before you leave. Consider the following ideas for random acts of kindness. These can be ad-opted for the holidays, then made part of your regular routine in the future.• Visit a nursing home and bring cupcakes. Stay and visit with the residents.• Donate books to the lo-cal library or a local char-ity that collects books for needy children.

• Leave an extra large tip for your food server.• Hold the door open for someone coming behind you, even if they are several steps away.• Bake goodies and take them to the police station, fire station or hospital.• Pay $5 to $10 of the per-son’s bill in line behind you at the fast food drive-through.

• Buy a balloon bouquet and ask the nurses at the hospital to deliver it to a child or elderly person who needs to be cheered. • Bake cookies for a neigh-bor or teacher, just because. Kindness doesn’t need to cost anything; it just requires a little time and unselfishness. We can all make a difference, one act of kindness at a time.

Carrier Landings Flying into a Middle East air-port, my co-pilot

a n d I reviewed our flight plan for the trip back to the USS Enterprise. We were to pick up a Navy captain, and experience had taught me that even seasoned vets turn white-knuckled during carrier landings. Once the captain was strapped in, I turned around to welcome him aboard. “Sir,” I asked, “will this be your first carrier landing?” Looking at me with dis-dain, he opened his inflat-able vest to display gold wings above five rows of ribbons. “Son,” he said, “I have over 500 carrier land-ings in jet fighters.” “That’s good to hear,” my co-pilot said, winking at me, “because this will be our first.”

Christmas Carol

(A true story) I recently got out the boxes of Christmas decora-tions and I told the children (ages 10, 8 and 5) that they could start setting them out. They were very excited and each got to pick out favorite ornaments or figurines. Ma-ria, the youngest, wanted to set up the Nativity scene and happily set to her task. As she concentrated on carefully unwrapping Mary, Joseph and the Baby Jesus, I overhead Maria singing this: “Angels We Have Heard Online”.....

Pet Bills While waiting at the vet-erinarian’s office, I over-heard two women chatting about their dogs. “What’s your dog’s name?” asked the first woman. “Well, we used to call her Pork Chop,” answered the second lady. “But after the vet bills we’ve had for her, we now call her Filet Mignon.”

Seatmate Choice

The plane was only half-full. When an attractive young woman asked if the seat next to mine was free, my male ego soared. Soon we were chatting pleasant-ly, and she told me it was her first flight. “Mom said to sit next to someone I thought I could trust,” she confessed ner-vously. “And you look just like my dad.”

Under the Bed Because of back prob-lems, each night I lie on the floor and do exercises. Once when we stopped at a motel, as I started my exercise, something under the bed caught my eye. It was a card, on which was written, “Yes, we do clean under here, too.”

PATIENT INFORMATION

Remember, if you have questions, Consult your Pharmacist.

I think we can all learn from Lauren Scruggs, 23, the Texas model and fash-ion blogger, who, after a plane ride over Dallas to view Christmas lights, in apparently walking back to thank the pilot, got hit by propeller blades on her left side. So far she has lost her left hand and eye among other things, but her spirit is what I’m most impressed with. For example, after seeing herself in the mirror for the first time she said, “It’s not that bad.” When I heard this I realized that this young woman definite-ly has a relationship with our Savior Jesus Christ. Her response told me that her work for Heavenly Fa-ther is more important than her looks. It told me that her parents raised her well. It told me that she’s got her priorities straight. It told me that her foundation is built on Jesus Christ. All

this, even at just 23! Lauren knows that when your foun-dation is built on a rock, no matter what trial comes at you, even a propeller blade, that, “It’s not that bad.” Could we respond like this? Do we have faith like her? Are our priorities straight? Is our foundation built on sand or rock? Is our rela-tionship with Jesus Christ more important than how we look or other worldly concerns? Let us learn from Lau-ren. Let us remember, “It’s not that bad” when a trial comes our way. Let us work to find the message in our trial or trials. Let us see what work we can do for our Father in Heaven with that trial. Let’s let that trial mold and shape us to become the most efficient instrument for Jesus Christ. Let’s start saying, “Why not me?” instead of “Why me?” and watch our attitude and

spirit soften and change. We may not lose a hand or an eye, but whatever trial we are facing or will face, let’s embrace and celebrate it, express gratitude, and learn from it. Then ask our Father in Heaven, “What good do you want me to do with this?” and even, “What do you want me to learn from this?” The les-sons are there. It’s whether we’ve got the foundation to embrace trials or not. How will you know you do or not? When you can easily say, no matter the trial, “It’s not that bad.” Cynthia Kimball is a professional speaker and trainer through her compa-ny Every1Counts, LLC, and a doctoral student in Work-force Education Leader-ship.

Ramona Larsen83 West Center - Loa, UT

There are numerous OTC products that are safe for patients with heart problems, and the best ad-vice is to speak with your pharmacist for clarifica-tion. You should always remember to read the label of every nonprescription product carefully to look for these warnings.

Nasal Congestion You should ask a physi-cian before taking any oral nasal decongestant tablets, capsules, or liquids. The ingredients of concern are pseudoephedrine and phenylephrine (e.g., Su-dafed, Sudafed PE). Un-less you have spoken to your physician, you should avoid almost all nasal sprays, drops, or inhalers (e.g., Afrin), and also all cough/cold combinations containing a deconges-tant. A safe option is the external nasal dilator strip (Breathe Right), which gently pulls your nostrils open after it is applied, easing your breathing. It has no effect on patients with heart disease or high blood pressure.

Asthma Asthma products (e.g., Primatene tablets and mist) carry a warning against unsupervised use in patients with heart dis-ease and high blood pres-sure. Unfortunately, there is no safe OTC option for self-treating asthma, and a physician visit for control of the asthma is the safest choice.

Hemorrhoids Hemorrhoid products con-taining phenylephrine should not be used without a physi-cian’s advice. In this case, there are safe nonprescription products that do not contain phenylephrine, but you must check the label closely to be sure you choose one of them. For instance, some Prepara-tion H products contain phen-ylephrine, while others do not.

Aches and Pains You should avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, and naproxen (e.g., Bayer Aspirin, Motrin IB, Aleve) if you have heart dis-ease or high blood pressure. However, acetaminophen (e.g., Tylenol) is safe to use, as long as you carefully follow all label directions (especial-ly dosing) and another label warning does not apply to you.

Allergic Eyes If you have allergic rhini-tis (“hay fever”), you may find that oral antihistamines do not adequately relieve the itching and tearing of your eyes. You may be tempted to try several popular products, such as Vi-sine-A or Opcon-A. However,

their labels warn against use if you have heart dis-ease or high blood pres-sure. You might try Zadi-tor, as it contains only the safer antihistamine ingre-dient (ketotifen).

Smoking Cessation Nicotine cessation gum, patches, and lozenges (e.g., Nicorette, Commit, Nicoderm) all warn against use if you have heart dis-ease, irregular heartbeat, or high blood pressure not controlled by medication, or have had a recent heart attack. You should visit your physician to explore whether you should take these under medical super-vision, or whether a pre-scription product such as Chantix is preferable.

Caffeine Caffeine is found in Vivarin, as well as some combination analgesic products for headache or menstrual pain. It can cause rapid heartbeat and perhaps should be avoided to better ensure your health

WRESTLING . . by Carlon Johnson

This week was a lot of fun for our wrestling team. On Wednesday we had a dou-ble duel with Escalante and Wayne at Escalante. All the team had a chance to wrestle, some twice when both Escalante and Wayne had wrestlers in the same weight. We then went to St. George for the Desert Storm wrestling tournament which lasted Friday Decem-ber 16th and Saturday De-cember 17th. We entered our entire team in the JV tournament. All our wres-tlers had at least 5 matches, this was a great time to get more experience. Billee Jones finished 2nd in his weight class. Joshua Rose 3rd in his bracket and Miles Holm finished 4th in his bracket. There were over 300 wrestlers at this tourna-ment. One exciting thing they do at tournaments is have the coaches vote for most outstanding wrestler, this award is given to only 4

wrestlers in the whole tour-nament. In the JV tourna-ment for the upper weight class award Joshua Rose won the Tournament Most Outstanding Award for weight class 152 thru 285, so out of 300 kids he was 1 of only four to get this hon-ored award. Many coaches were very impressed with his hard work to get 3rd. All our wrestlers are do-ing great this first year of our program. Coaches Mortensen, Pollock and Johnson are very impressed with each of our wrestlers.

FYI PANGUITCHBy: Mack Oetting ~ E-mail: mackoetting @gmail.com

Are you ready for sum-mer yet? It is snowing out side tonight and we are going through a lot of fire wood trying to keep warm. Actually winter starts this week so you have a cou-ple of more seasons to go through till it warms up. The good news is now the daylight time starts going the other way, 2 minutes a day, one in the morning and one at night. So if it’s get-ting dark at 6 in the evening it will be up to 7 by the be-ginning of March. The Elementary School Christmas program was a big success. .I thought that holding it at 11 in the morn-ing would cut into the atten-dance, however the stands were full and the audience was entertained with a lot of caroling. They changed the words to most of the song but I have never heard the kids sing so loud, even the boys were taking part. When you hear 260 kids singing it sends chills down your spine. The teachers put a lot of effort into bring this about” thank you” for your hard work. At the Main Street draw-ing, the Sub for Santa quilt was won Donna Guida. This beautiful Quilt was made by Claudia Crump again this year and raised a lot of money for the Sub

for Santa program. Santa will delivered gifts to over 90 kids in our area, to help them enjoy the Season. Many thanks to all of those who have made this pro-gram such a huge success over the last 18 years. Don’t forget your date for New Years Eve here in Panguitch. The Surfs Up Beach Party has it all ; food, entertainment, games for the kids and a money pit for those of you that can use a little cash. This is a family affair and it is not restricted to people from Panguitch, so come on out and enjoy the fun. Looking for some last minute shopping why go any farther than here? The Shed has your sporting goods on sale, the Radio shack has all of the latest electronic gadgets, H&R has plenty of games and toys, Forget Me Not has plenty of the up to date clothing for the youth. The Cowboy Collectables, Bronco Bobbies have that unique gift, which will hit the spot. Shop locally it helps out the Town with jobs and keeps the money here. It looks like the gate on the dam at Panguitch Lake will be done sometime this week. The County will be tak-ing out the holding dams also this week. So now all

we need is a little snow to bring the Lake back up to its normal depth. It looks like the NBA Basketball season will get underway on Christmas day, if anyone cares. All the top teams will be play-ing, Boston, Dallas, Lakers, Chicago, Miami and Orlan-do. The Jazz have their first game at the Lakers on the 27th. The NBA season has been shortened to 66 games and with the football season almost over it will give us couch potatoes something to watch. Let the games begin! On Christmas Day there will be a three Ward Christ-mas program at the Stake Center, which will be held at 10 am. Come early for the best seating to honor the Birth of the Savior. All are invited. Christmas is the time when people are putting others first, this year is no exception. A few examples: Local talent entertaining at the Extended Care unit on a daily bases. Twelve Days of Christ-mas to show someone cares about your family. Youth are Christmas car-oling Sub for Santa – Jars, or-ganizations, clubs, Angel Tree, and donations from individuals are all making it possible. The City workers have lighted up the City and put-ting up the annual Christ-mas tree at the Quilt Walk Park. Ride around town and see the house lights. Christmas Parties And best of all our Troops are Home. From my family to yours have a Merry Christmas and a happy New Years, and en-joy this little bit of Heaven on earth that we live in.

Survived by her children, Sherry (Dennis) Ekker, Hanksville, Ut., Bonnie (Frank) Mendez, North Salt Lake, Ut., Linda West-enskow, Hanksville, Ut., Steve (Lesa) Rasmussen, Fremont, Ut., and Patsy (Dariush) Zamani, North Salt Lake, Ut.; 22 grand-children, 52 great grand-children, and 11 great great grandchildren; sister, Nina Armstrong, SLC.

OBITUARIESDwaine Lee Burr

1937 – 2011 Our beloved father, grandfather, great-grand-father and brother returned home to his Heavenly Fa-ther, where many of his loved ones were waiting for his arrival on Decem-ber 16, 2011 of a heart at-tack while hunting elk. He was born May 31, 1937 in Salina Utah to Morse Burr and Zelma Willardsen Burr. Dwaine married the love of his life, Verlyne Anderson on November 2, 1956. They

were later sealed in the Manti Utah Temple on April 19, 1980. Dwaine lived his entire life in Salina Utah and loved it beyond words to explain. Dwaine loved working for the Utah Department of Transportation, the State Road, in Richfield Utah. He worked there for over 35 years until his retirement in 1996. He was blessed with great abil-ity in basketball, baseball and tennis and his name appears many times in the trophycases of North Sevier High School. He played on his church softball team that was All Church Champions in 1965. He loved his New York Yankees. He was an ardent fan of Boise State Bronco football. He loved the team and all they have accomplished, especially Coach “Pete.” Dwaine was extremely loyal and proud of his North Sevier High School Class of 1955. He was an ongoing member of the Class Reunion Planning Committees and never missed a class reunion. Dwaine was perhaps the best fisherman around. His pickup has a bumper sticker that reads, “FISH TREMBLE at the sound of my name.” He loved to take friends or fam-ily fishing and did it very often. He was true, faithful, consistent and dependable in ful-filling his many callings in the LDS Church. He served for over 29 years as the Stake Clerk for four different Stake Presidencies in the North Sevier Stake, a position he held up until his untimely death. He was an extremely compas-sionate person. He invested his retirement years wisely by visiting all that were not feeling okay. He was a good example of the Pure Love of Christ. Dwaine was a fine example of honesty, integrity and kindness to others and there will be emptiness in the hearts of all who knew and loved him. He was incredibly generous. He was always donating to those less fortunate. He was particularly gen-erous in his contributions to the “Feed the Children” group. His greatest joy and happiness was any activity that he was involved in that included his family, of whom he was justifiably proud. In fact, his final moments were spent involved in just such a family outing with his brother, Rob-ert, and good friend Kay Williams. He is survived by two of his sons, Tracy (Tracey) Burr, who is a CPA and tax accountant and practices in Dal-las, TX and Dr. Randall “Randy” (Mona) Burr, who is a dermatologist and practices in Boise, ID, 3 grandsons, 3 granddaughters, 1 great-grandson, and his younger brotherRobert. He was preceded in death by his wife Verlyne, their in-fant daughter Melanie and their teenage son Matthew, his parents and his older brother Gaylon. He will now have the opportunity to meet them once again, and with his wife raise their infant daughter and teenage son. Funeral services will be held Tuesday, December 20, 2011 at Noon at the Salina LDS Stake Center, 98 West 400 North, Salina, Utah. Friends and family may visit Monday evening from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. at the Salina Stake Center, and from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. prior to the services. Inter-ment will take place in the Salina East Side Cemetery. In lieu of flowers Dwaine would appreciate contribu-tions in his name to the Boise State Football Stadium Ex-pansion Fund. For more information contact the Bronco Athletic Association at (208) 426-3556 or [email protected]. Funeral Directors, Magleby Mortuary, Richfield, Salina and Manti

Escalante has had a foot, or more, of snow since I last sent the news in. We still have BIG mounds of snow around town but it won’t last, unless it snows again, because it is melting quite fast. MaeVonn Taylor and Janalee and Louie Bernardo had quite a bit of company over the Thanksgiving weekend. Louie’s son, Cale, and his wife, Courtney came from St. George with their two children. Rick and Kim Dodds and children, Harley and Taylor, traveled here from Meeker, Colorado. Heath and their two children, Tee and Haley, were here from Bicknell. Then Jimmy Taylor came from Las Vegas, where he works, and got some big fix-it jobs done for his mom, MaeVonn. The very ones she had in her letter to Santa Claus! After he got those done Jimmy stayed on an extra day to visit. Alan Overall came home from Moab just in time to help his parents, Bill and Linda clean the snow from their driveways. Hopefully there are no ricks of snow blocking the view of all their beautiful Christmas lights. Sharon Dale, Eve and Thelma Marsh went to Parowan to see the family of Justin Marsh perform in a dance recital. Ronda and Jimmy Barney made a trip to Idaho Falls, Id. to attend the funeral of Ronda’s Grandma Barrett. Her ma-ternal grandmother. She was 91 and doing great until she suffered a stroke last year. Even after that she did pretty well for a woman her age. Our Condolences to Ronda and family. Kent McInelly and a friend diagnosed Kent last week as having an aneurysm. Same symptoms as the friend who had had one earlier! Kent went to a doctor and sure enough they were exactly right. He had surgery on Friday and went home Saturday. He lives in Hurricane. We wish him a speedy recovery. It was good to see Steve Pollock at the Escalante-Bryce Valley girls basketball game last Wednesday. He is look-ing a lot better and says he feels better so that was good news! Enjoyed visiting with his brother Vance too! The Christmas Cantata was presented last Sunday evening, by both wards, under the direction of Sabrina Hughes. A couple of special numbers were by Brent Grif-fin and Ted Engberg and Quinn and Doneen Griffin. It was well attended and put people in the Christmas spirit. Thanks to them for all their efforts. The eighth grade play went off well. Hopefully they will continue to do this each year until they are seniors! Lois and Danny Spencer attended the wedding of their great grandson, Walter Spencer, and his bride, Danni, in Mesquite Nevada. Walter is the son of Jim and Allison Jensen and the grandson of Theron and Chris Jensen. Lois and Danny only have 42 great grandchildren now. Seven of them born this year! They went to the blessing of three of them all in one day. Each in a different ward! Then Colton, the youngest son of Theron and Chris, is going on a mission to Mexico City, New Mexico so the Spencers will be going to Mesquite for his farewell. Congratulations to Jason and Karen Griffin, Enoch, who have a new baby girl weighing in at 5lbs 15 oz. Escalante grandparents are Quinn and Doneen Griffin and the great grandfather is DeLane Griffin. Approximately 75 S.C. Telephone employees gathered at the telephone office last week for their Christmas party. It sounded like it was fun! Lenza Wilson had his first outing with his Christmas Lights Parade last week. That should be on TV! It is just beautiful. He really outdid himself this year. Thanks Len-za. That is a great Christmas card for the whole town!

morial Hospital, Panguitch Drug, Kazan Clinic, and the Escalante EMS. And, final-ly, we would like to thank the warm and welcom-ing townfolk of Escalante, Utah and Marathon, Texas for their spirit of friendship. Online condolences can be sent to www.sumortuary.com

O Liitle Town of Bethlehem... A song’s history

Almost all of our most beloved Christmas Car-ols have a unique ‘background...’ and Little Town of Bethlehem is no exception!

When Phillips Brooks wrote the Christmas carol O Little Town of Bethlehem he was writing under the inspiration of a life-changing event from three years earlier. Lewis H. Redner wrote the tune while under the inspiration of last-minute desperation. Phillips Brooks was an Episcopalian minister who preached in Philadelphia and Boston. He was a ninth generation descendent of the Puritans and was raised a Bostonian. A large man, at six foot six inch-es tall and carrying three hundred pounds, his im-mense presence and rapid delivery style earned him a reputation as one of America’s greatest preachers. While he was serving at Holy Trinity Church in Philadelphia, Phillips had the opportunity to visit the Holy Land and on December 24, 1865 attended a Christmas Eve Service at the Church of the Nativ-ity in Bethlehem. The service lasted for five hours and was full of songs of praise to God. Brooks was moved by the opportu-nity to celebrate with other Christians so near the location of Jesus’ birth. Three years later, at the age of 33, Phillips decided to compose an original song for the children of his church to sing for the annual Christmas program. The thrilling experience in Bethlehem inspired him to write a five-stanza hymn. He gave the lyrics to his organist and asked him to compose a tune, promis-ing to name the melody St. Lewis if he liked it. The Organist Lewis Redner The organist, Lewis Redner, was uninspired and struggled to compose a melody. On the night before the program, he woke with the music flooding his soul. He wrote the tune down and then returned to bed. Brooks liked the tune and kept his promise to name it after Redner. However, he changed the spelling to St. Louis to avoid embarrassing the author of the melody. The First Performance of O Little Town of BethlehemThe first performance of O Little Town of Bethlehem occurred the next day. Thirty six chil-dren accompanied by six Sunday School teachers premiered the well-loved children’s carol to the world. The Forgotten Stanza - Phillips wrote five stanzas to the hymn but often the fourth stanza is absent in songbooks. The fourth stanza reads:

“Where children pure and happy pray to the blessed Child, / Where misery cries out to Thee, Son of the mother mild; / Where charity stands

watching and faith holds wide the door; / The dark night wakes, the glory breaks, and

Christmas comes once more.”- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Merry Christmas, everyone, and may the comingyear be trul;y Blessed for you and yours!

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR This letter is being writ-ten to express concens which have recently been raised following the public notice announcement dated December 1st, 2011, in the Wayne County Insider. Before commenting fur-ther, I would like to offer a brief introduction. We are the Murray family newly arriving in Loa from San Diego. Our full time homes and family business are lo-cated locally in the San Di-ego area. Recently my parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ross Murray, Sr., became the proud new owners of their very own vacation home located in beautiful Loa. This has been a dream come true for our family. You see, Fish Lake Resort

and its surrounding area has been the vacation des-tination of our family every summer for over 30 yeras. Finally, a place of our own to enjoy! Knowledge of the pro-posed dam site and recre-ational development comes as a disconcerting surprise and carries with it some se-rious personal concerns, as follows:Concern # 1: Non-Loa resi-dents who will pay to use the newly created reservoir for boating, etc., while fish-ing and hunting... Benefits who?Concern # 2 Pressure from outsiders willing to pay to use the recreational fa-cilities while depleting Loa residents’ own local re-sources... Benefits who?

Concern # 3: Busy roads, increased traffic, increased noise levels, waste and roadside debris.... Benefits who?Concern # 4: Applicant Di-xie Leavitt of Leavitt Land Investment is seeking to create a profit center in Loa, many miles away from his own private residence.... Will this enhance the lives of the people who live in Loa? Obviously, the only one who would benefit from the Road Creek Dam project is Dixie Leavitt. His financial gain would be a great per-sonal loss to every family of Loa, a hard-to-find and uniquely desirable place to call home.

Sincerely,Ross Murray and Family

BICYCLE BARNSTORMING HEADED TO CENTRAL UTAH

The Mormon Pioneer National Heritage Area* (MPNHA) is pleased to an-nounce it has partnered with the Utah Heritage Founda-tion to promote awareness and appreciation of historic barns in Sanpete and Sevier counties. The organizations will be co-sponsors of the Bicycle Barnstorming Tour, a three-day event to be held during the second week of June 2012. The Tour will bring to-gether cyclists, heritage andhistory buffs, and barn afi-cionados to explore how old barns contribute to the rustic aura of central Utah. “These old barns are some of the most distinc-tive remnants of our pio-neer heritage,” said Monte Bona, executive director of the MPNHA. “They reflect the area’s agricultural fla-vor, the industry and practi-cality of the early Mormon colonizers, and the pattern of settlement they estab-lished. By partnering with the Utah Heritage Foun-dation for next summer’s Barnstorming Tour, we canhelp people appreciate not only the barns themselves, but the characteristics they represent.”

For three days, people will bicycle through loca-tions in both counties on a guided tour of old barns. Participants will take pho-tographs and make written descriptions of the barns. That information will be used to create a guide of old barns in central Utah. Cur-rent plans are for a printed guide as well as a smart-phone app. Next summer’s Barn-storming Tour will be the first of what will hopefully become an annual event. “The Barnstorming Tour will help achieve mul-tiple goals of the Mormon Pioneer National Heritage Area,” Bona said. “By list-ing old barns and creating the guide, we will be taking inventory of some our im-portant cultural resources. And the tour will also allow us to display and interpret the area’s heritage, promote recreation, and encourage heritage tourism — all of which will help develop the economic benefit of historic preservation.” The project has been funded in part by a grant from the Eccles Fund for Utah of the National Trust for Historic Preserva-tion (NTHP), which gave

$5,000 to the MPNHA for the Barnstorming Tour. Stephanie Meeks, presi-dent of the NTHP, said, “The National Trust for Historic Preservation is honored to provide a grant to the Mormon Pioneer Na-tional Heritage Area, which will use the funds to help preserve an important piece of our shared heritage.”For central Utah, old barns aren’t just an important piece of the area’s heritage, but a defining one. “Barns are an iconic fea-ture of this rural landscape, but they are fast disappear-ing,” said Susan Crook, the Utah Heritage Founda-tion’s central and southern Utah field representative. “The cycling event and barn guide are the first step in an effort to raise aware-ness about the plight of the disappearing barns that will hopefully lead to a cam-paign to raise money and labor to help cash-strapped barn owners catch up with deferred maintenance.” As barns are preserved and restored, and as the tour becomes an annual event, perhaps some of the build-ings could be converted for use as heritage-related busi-nesses or other economic ventures, Crook said. As the event’s coordina-tor, Crook said the tour is still in its planning stages, and she invites anyone in-terested in participating in any way — as riders, spon-sors, donors, volunteers, or barn owners —to contact her. Crook may be reached by calling her at (435) 773-5336, or by emailing her at [email protected].

FORGIVENESS 2004 (c) The National Healthy Marriage Institute LLC

Why do the people clos-est to us have the power to hurt us the most? Part of the answer lies in our ability to feel the emotion of love. To fully experience the emotion of love, we must first lower our protective emotional walls. Once we lower our walls we leave ourselves vulnerable to get-ting hurt. Since no one is perfect, we all do and say things that hurt those we love the most. How we choose to react when we have hurt or been hurt by our spouse will de-termine if we are able to form and sustain a healthy marriage. Forgiving and offering a sincere apology are two of the most effective medi-cines to heal a marriage. They aren’t always the easi-est to administer. However, the question you need to ask yourself is, “Do I want to feel anger, resentment, bit-terness, pain and misery?” or “Do I want to feel love, peace, joy and happiness?” To feel the positive emo-tions, you need to forgive your spouse when he or she hurts you and offer a sin-cere apology when you hurt

your spouse. In essence, forgiveness is the process of replacing the feelings of bitterness, anger and hurt with love. The fol-lowing five steps can help you forgive:1. Calm down before speak-ing to your spouse.2. After you calm down, tell your spouse what he or she did to hurt you. In many cases, you will find it was unintentional or a simple misunderstanding.3. Recognize you aren’t perfect either. Think of the many times your spouse has forgiven you for hurting him or her.4. Think of three memories where your feeling of love was especially strong to-wards your spouse. When-ever you feel bitterness, an-ger and hurt, think of these three memories. 5. Don’t be discouraged when you can’t replace overnight the feelings of bitterness, anger and hurt with love. It may take time. Be patient and don’t give up. Going through the pro-cess of forgiveness does not mean you should leave yourself vulnerable to be-

ing hurt again by unac-ceptable actions. Domestic violence is one example of this. If you are a victim of domestic violence, you should seek professional help immediately. It is also important to learn how to offer a sincere apology. There are three crucial steps in making a sincere apology to your spouse.1. Recognize exactly what you did to hurt your spouse.2. Develop a plan to not repeat the same mistake again.3. Tell him or her you are sorry. Some people choose to skip the first two steps and go straight to the third. Eventually the healing power of the words “I’m sorry” will lose their effec-tiveness and make the situ-ation worse. Take some time to think of something you have re-cently done that hurt your spouse and begin the steps of making a sincere apol-ogy. In addition, think of something your spouse has done that hurt you and be-gin the steps of forgiveness.

CHANGING YOUR WILL OR TRUST

The situation is common. A client has a will or trust prepared by legal counsel. Sometime later the client wishes to make changes to the estate plan. The question is, how should those changes be made? First, one should never hand write or type changes to the face of an existing will or trust. The cost of paying for a properly drafted and executed change to an existing estate plan document is far less than the amount that the benefi-ciaries and estate administrator would pay to separate legal counsel to determine the effect of the handwritten change.

Any estate planning attorney could share experiences of negative effects on families caused by handwritten changes to estate planning documents. Although no one wants to create problems between beneficiaries of the estate, even small handwritten changes can create great problems. The question is always what should govern – the handwritten change or the original provision? The question is almost never clear and can almost always be argued either way. Additionally, there is almost always a question as to whose handwriting it really is. The legal formalities that exist with respect to executing estate planning documents and changes to those documents were developed to prevent the first person that finds the will or trust from changing the terms by penning or typing changes of their own to the docu-ment. The necessary formalities are not satisfied when handwritten or typed changes are made to the document. It is important to note that in almost all situations, one can, with proper assistance, effectively change an estate plan. Although some estate tax savings trusts (life insurance trusts, credit shelter trusts, etc.) are not amendable, most estate planning trusts are revo-cable, amendable trusts. Additionally, wills are almost always revocable and amendable.

In conclusion, almost all estate planning instruments are amendable. Although the documents can be changed, it is almost never a good idea to change the documents by handwriting or typing the changes on the face of the document. Handwriting or typing on the face of the document will almost certainly lead to questions about the effect or validity of such changes. Such uncertainty will likely result in disputes between beneficiaries. These dis-putes can be both financial-ly and emotionally drain-ing. Jeffery J.

U.S. TERM LIMITS PRAISES UT-CD2

CANDIDATEJOHN WILLOUGHBY

FOR PLEDGE U.S. Term Limits (USTL), the leader in the national movement to limit terms for elected officials, praised UT-CD2 candidate John Willoughby for promising to support and co-sponsor an amendment to the U.S. Constitution limiting congressional terms. Philip Blumel commented on Willoughby’s pledge say-ing, “John Willoughby is leading the way for the other can-didates for Congress by being an early signer of the term limits pledge. Willoughby’s commitment to returning to citizen gov-ernment in Washington, D.C. is a beacon that should be followed by candidates across the nation.” The U.S. Term Limits Amendment Pledge has been provided to every announced candidate for federal office. It reads, “I pledge that as a member of Congress I will co-sponsor and vote for the U.S. Term Limits Amendment of three (3) House terms and two (2) Senate terms and no longer limit.” The U.S. Term Limits Constitutional Amendment has been introduced in both the U.S. Senate by Senator Jim DeMint (R-SC) and the House of Representatives by Rep-resentative David Schweikert (R-AZ). This session of Congress marks the first time in nearly twenty years that a serious term limits bill has appeared in both Houses with co-sponsorship. Blumel noted, “The dysfunction in Washington, D.C. has never been greater, and people have had enough of politics as usual. Many members of Congress are getting on board as they become increasingly frustrated with the status quo. Fortunately, with candidates like John Wil-loughby jumping into the fray, the political pressure for the constitutional amendment will continue building toward successful passage.” According to the last nationwide poll on term limits conducted by Public Opinion Dynamics for Fox News in September 2010, the issue enjoys wide bi-partisan support. The poll showed that 78 percent of Americans support con-gressional term limits, including 74 percent independents and 74 percent of the nation’s Democrats. Blumel concluded, “America is in trouble. Our career politicians have let the people down. It is time to limit their terms and return control of our nation to people who have actually had to create a job, earn an honest paycheck and pay a mortgage. It is time for a constitutional amendment limiting congressional terms.” The term limits amendment bills would require a two-thirds majority vote in the House and Senate, and ratifica-tion by 38 states in order to become part of the Constitu-tion. U.S Term Limits is a non-partisan, non-profit advo-cacy organization that works to promote term limits at all levels of government. For more information or to ar-

SHOP WITH A COP On December 10, 2011, the annual “Shop With a Cop” was held. This year we were able to take 12 of our local kids to give them a shopping spree for Christ-mas. The kids enjoyed a catered breakfast by Mc-Donald’s. We then traveled to Walmart with lights and sirens blaring. Eyes of the kids were bright and spar-kling with anticipation and excitement for their shop-ping venture, where they also had the opportunity to see and visit with Santa. We give a special thanks to all those who donated to this event. We also want to thank all the officers who participated this year.
