Springville Art City Days Presents

On Saturday, April 27th at Banana Stand Liquidation (551 N. Main, Springville) a swap meet was held. “Karen’s Love for Life”, operated a booth and had a successful fundraiser thanks to the love and support of friends and fam-ily. Karen Watson is fighting stage four colon cancer and a brain tumor. With the love and support of friends and fam-ily it was a huge success. The family is very grateful for all

the donations, love, support, and those who purchased the items for sale.

We had baking goods: breads, cookies, cupcakes, caramels, and Rice Krispy treats, these sold out within hours. We also had crafts such as pictures, homemade cards, homemade flower accessories, flower bouquets, and much more.

On the weekend of May 11th we will have a garage sale at 308 E. 1050 S. Springville from 9 am - 2 pm. If you miss the chance to come to the bake

sale or garage sale, we invite you to go to Central Bank and donate to the trust fund, “Karen’s Love for Life”.

Amazing PoemsCome hear about these creatures and their amazing features.

And sometimes they like to sneeze like very small Sneechers There is a tall Nunnel, and a small Nunnel They live, yes

they live in a very small tunnel They only come out of their hole, I’m afraid When a soft kind of music is gently played

There is also a Buzz for Buzz-B-Ba-Tuzz It’s a very tall creature for a small baby buzz

You’ll be very surprised where he is found Once you start to poke around

There is a Likk for Likker who lives in the weeds And spend their whole life juggling cinnamon seeds You can find a great, many number In the month of amazing Octumber

And last but not least there is pickled-spoons Who doodle and doodle in fat desert dunes Just doodling, doodling very sad tunes About peppermints, peanuts, pickles, and prunes.

The Very Amazing Creaturesby Brianna Farnsworth (Mrs. Cox 4th Grade)

I have always hated When I need to climb, So I tried to stall, But I knew it was time. So I started up, Already thinking How treacherous It was climbing.

I put one hand In front of the other Starting to breathe A little heavier I was half of The way up. Then I slipped! Why’d I mess up? Because of that slip I went down a way. This day for me Is looking very gray.

I was breathing so hard Could I go any further? So I said to myself “Should I go slower?” But which one should I choose; Getting up a bit slower, Or (even if I might die!) Get-ting to the top quicker?

I decided to go slower. I definitely could not stand Going quick, because my heart Sounded like a drum in a band!

I was almost there When my left foot fell! Luckily, my right foot Was on there well! My heart beating very, very hard Onto the top I start pulling myself. I remembered I had asked for help, But was told, “Do it yourself.” Even though no one Else probably cares, I finally made it To the top of the stairs!

The Climbby Helen Linford (Mr. Anderson 6th grade)

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter

or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long estab-lished should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolish-ing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usur-pations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of

repeated injuries and usur-pations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.

He has forbidden his Gov-ernors to pass Laws of imme-diate and pressing impor-tance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.

He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Repre-sentation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.

He has called together legis-lative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.

He has dissolved Represen-

tative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.

He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative pow-ers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.

He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Natu-ralization of Foreigners; refus-ing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.

He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers.

He has made Judges depen-dent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.

He has erected a multitude

of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.

He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing

Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.

The Constitution - It’s Only Keepers - The PeopleArtwork: Robert Schoeller Provided by: Roots of Freedom

I recently read Thomas Paine’s Dissertation on First Principles of Government. While reading it, I realized that this is exactly what America needs right now, to relearn and return to first principles of government by relearning/returning to first principles of liberty.

Americans love to boast of their liberty. But do most Americans today truly under-stand the liberty they boast of? Recent events, and particularly much of the 20th Century’s history show that perhaps they might not. However, there is a solution to this problem, which lies in what Thomas Paine says in Dissertation:

It is at all times necessary…until right ideas confirm them-

selves by habit, that we fre-quently refresh our patriotism by reference to first principles. It is by tracing thing to their origin that we learn to under-stand them: and it is by keep-ing that line and that origin in view that we never forget them.

Before we can promote lib-erty, we first must understand it. The United States of Amer-ica has come closer than any other nation to attaining pure liberty. So if anyone wants to truly understand liberty, they would do well to study Amer-ica’s founding. But under-standing liberty requires more than knowing dates, famous people, important battles, or obscure facts from America’s founding. It requires that you take the time to delve into America’s historical docu-ments. And this means more than just a casual read. We must study and ponder these documents as we would the

scriptures. The study of some-thing requires that you branch out of the original source you are studying and consult out-side sources that will help you better understand it. Thus, understanding liberty means more than casually reading the Constitution and the Declara-tion of Independence. To truly understand those documents and the liberty they preach of, one must extend one’s studies to the writers and historical events that influenced the men who helped bring about the Constitution and Declaration. This requires knowledge not just of American history, but of British history as well, because before we were Americans, we were Englishmen. We must have a basic history and understanding of the attempts throughout British history to limit the powers of the British crown through such endeavors as Magna Carta, the Petition of Right, The English Civil War,

the English Republic and tyr-anny of Oliver Cromwell, the Glorious Revolution of 1688, the 1689 Bill of Rights, the rights each of these helped secure to Englishmen, and how each of these influenced Amer-icans. Such study would also lead one to Edward Coke, the Levellers, John Locke, Alger-non Sidney, John Tenchard and Joseph Gordon, Montesquieu, and William Blackstone, all key philosophers that need to be understood before one can truly understand American liberty.

Understanding liberty through the lens of America is quite an endeavor. It takes time and effort. It’s a non-stop, eternal process. It’s something we are duty bound to do if we cherish that true liberty we preach so much about as Americans. In today’s infor-mation age, we have all the sources we need at our finger-tips, all relatively cheap thanks

to the Internet. If we wish to preserve our liberty, we must come to an understanding of it through study and application of its principles in our daily lives, and jealously guard it from any thieving tyrant that would steal it from us.

Here’s a few sources to use in better understanding liberty:

“Simply Basketball” in June

In June of 2009 a 61-year-old grandpa from the Seattle area walked into a gym in Springville and was, “surprised to see someone teaching principles of basketball the way that a lifetime of experience had taught him that they ought to be taught. That someone was Jimmy Watts.”

Richard Stafford, has spent 30 years coaching his kids and grandkids in basketball. He has a daughter who played at BYU, one who played at Ricks, and three sons who played professionally in Germany. Coach Stafford went on to say, “All of my children are average athletes, it was because of their training in fundamentals of shooting and other basketball skills that they were successful.”

Stafford, continues, “Jimmy Watts’ practices are filled with instruction on how to do each skill in the most efficient way, with proper form, with emphasis on doing it right. Most programs put the emphasis on getting lots of repetitions, which means those not doing it right are learning bad habits. Jimmy has a wonderful way of motivating the kids without yelling at them. He is patient and lets each child go at his own pace. That is probably the most important quality in teaching young athletes. I strongly endorse this program.”

Coach Watts tells the

kids, “Practice doesn’t make perfect, only perfect practice makes perfect.” Jimmy goes on to say, “Playing sports, feeling the competitive drive, winning and losing, these experiences build self-esteem and character. Boys have been benefiting from their sports training forever. One of the best gifts you can give your daughters is to encourage them to participate in sports. Kids love to dream big dreams, but dreams are vague and far away. Goals are tangible and achievable. One of the best things we can teach our kids is to reach for their dreams through small daily achievements. As educators and parents we can mentor them in setting and achieving small goals. Dream big, focus small.” encourages the Coach.

‘Simply Basketball’ is designed to give every child an introduction to the fundamentals of basketball and to help the child with greater interest and skill develop into

the athlete they want to become. Coach Jimmy, as the kids like to call him is ably assisted by Jr. Coaches. Bryce Wilson heads them up. The junior coaches have been selected not only for their basketball knowledge and skill but for their kindness and ability to relate to the fledgling athletes. They are able to encourage the shyest child or challenge the more advanced.

The next basketball camp runs every Monday and Wednesday in June. Eight one-hour lessons for $65.00 with a T-shirt included. Kids will have an opportunity to be in the Art City Days Parade with Coach Jimmy. More information is on the Parks and Recreation site at www.springville.org or contact Springville Recreation Department at 801-489-2730. There is no on-line registration, check or cash only at Parks and Recreation or open registration on the day of class.

Remembering the old days

Summer break is an ideal time to remember the old days and to create new memories that your children and grandchildren will tell their posterity.

Parents and grandparents, take your children to see where you grew up and where you went to school. Show them your college, your first job and where you met your spouse. Go camping in the same place you camped as a kid and sing the songs that you sang and tell family stories. Show them where their ancestors lived and walk the streets that they did.

A few great places to go to if you have Utah ancestors include the Church History Museum and This is the Place Heritage Park and the DUP/ Historical Society Museum in Salt Lake, Cove Fort in Millard County and the local DUP/ Historical Society museum in Springville. The Manti Pageant in June is always a hit with kids and adults alike.

The Church History Museum has hands on interactive exhibits for the kids. If you know the names of your ancestors who joined

the church and came to Utah in the early days, you can discuss them as you explore the Museum and then go just up the street on North Temple to the Church History Library where many journals of the early saints are kept along with their Patriarchal Blessings and many other items of interest. The websites are https://history.lds.org/place/church-history-museum?lang=eng and http://churchhistorylibrary.lds.org/primo_library/libweb/action/search.do?dscnt=1&dstmp=1367176632074&vid=CHL_PUBLIC&fromLogin=true

This is the Place Heritage Park has marvelous things to see and do….there is a petting zoo, train and wagon rides, pony rides for the kids, candle makers, coopers and many other artisans show how to make and use the everyday items that our ancestors possessed. http://www.

thisistheplace.org/ Cove Fort in Millard County

has been restored to bring the past a little bit more to life. This is the only fort built by the Latter-day Saints in the 1800’s that still stands. President Hinckley’s grandfather built the fort in 1867 and helped many travelers. http://www.covefort.com/

The DUP museum in Salt Lake has artifacts, personal histories and photos of many of the early settlers. Photos and histories can be copied for you at a minimal price. They also have many wonderful exhibits. The DUP/Historical museum on Main Street in Springville houses excellent displays and is well worth exploring as are others in Spanish Fork, Payson, Provo, Santaquin, Salem, Pleasant Grove, Orem, Lehi, Highland, American Fork and Alpine. http://www.dupinternational.org/

You don’t let me do ANY-thing I want to do! Pretty sure most parents have heard this or a similar theme. And that would be a good thing. It is part of a discerning parent’s job to evaluate their child’s needs and dispense a healthy dose of ‘vitamin N’ - in other words, the word “No.” In today’s permissive society, our children want it all - a cell phone, ‘freedom’ to do what they want, to eat only what they like, play when they want and say what they want. And why not? Many fami-lies today have the financial resources to give their children most everything. They want to avoid contention so they give in and let children fritter their time away with activities that don’t build character or rela-tionships. As a result, children are more and more dissatis-fied with what they are given. Nothing is witheld so nothing has meaning. When faced with the choice of giving a child what can be given or withheld at the parents’ discretion, Mom and Dad must decide when to say “No” and how often.

The trouble is, that when the

self-willed child is told “No” when they know good and well Mom and Dad could say “Yes” but choose not to, they see it as their own personal barrier to freedom. Despite all the other choices they could choose, when faced with one thing they cannot do or have, our strong willed one will plaster himself up against that “No” barrier as if it is the wall of a cage. Shaking the bars he will shout and scream, “You are taking away my freedom!” What he doesn’t see at the moment is that there is only one wall to his cage. If he would back up and turn around he would see that there are an infinite num-ber of other choices available. The strong will in him, how-ever, only allows him to see what he cannot have, the one “wall” keeping him from his desires. At this, he will blame Mom and Dad for caging him in.

While parents have the choice of trying to help the strong-willed one see the many other choices, they must understand that the child has to discover them on his own. Parents can explain that although little Percy cannot have an air-soft gun, he could choose a board game, a base-ball glove or stilts. Although he

is not allowed to go to mixed gender parties at his age, he can have all his buddies over and play for hours in the tree-house. There are so many other choices out there that eventu-ally, even the strongest self-willed child must come to see, BECAUSE Mom and Dad said “No,” that there is probably something else out there that he can choose that would make him as happy as the thing he wanted at first. He may even discover he is happier.

Mom and Dad remember this: just because your child yells and screams and claims you have ruined his life, it is an important part of his develop-ment for him to learn how to deal with the word “No.” Just because you can say “Yes,” doesn’t mean you should. Just because your youngster will blow his top if you don’t, doesn’t mean you give in to avoid contention. And the more opportunities he has to learn to adapt to “No”-just-because-I-think-it’s-better-for-you, the better off he’ll be when real life hits. He may even learn to tell himself “No” on occasion, just because it is good for him.

Don’t shake the bars and scream. If you have some-thing to say, write to [email protected]

“Common Core” is it right?

Let it be known that it appears that for the most part, according to what I viewed, Utah Parents that know about the Common Core are against its implementation, the test-ing methods, and the lack of transparency.

I don’t like the way that big business is going in the United States. That is, that a product (Common Core Testing sys-tem at $39 million dollars) can be voted in by a few and then forced upon the people to cover the bill. I, for one, stand

for liberty and freedom. I approached a couple peo-

ple at random and also had a few people contact me as I had left a note on the “Question Board” at the back of the room. I leave you now to read the thoughts by your neighbors.

Louise Payne to perform

The last performance in the Sunday Concert Series for this season (there will be no con-certs during June and July) will be given by soprano Louise Payne on Sunday, May 19 2013 at 5 p.m. at the Spring-ville Museum of Art. This concert series is free to the public and is sponsored by the Springville Arts Commission.

Louise has titled her per-formance “Bridges of Honor” and the purpose is to honor people in our lives who have inspired us. The title evolved because the performance is bridging Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. Please feel free to invite your parents, children, siblings, friends, teachers or whoever has influenced you in your life, to attend this perfor-mance of inspirational tunes. This is a great opportunity to evidence your high esteem of these loved ones for their many gracious contributions to your life.

Payne has performed vari-

ous roles in opera and the-ater. Among them are Maria in “West Side Story”, Milly in ‘Seven Brides for Seven Brothers’, Amahl’s mother in “Amahl and the Night Visi-tors,” Soprano soloist for “The Messiah,” and Mary Magda-lene in “Savior of the World” on Temple Square.

She has performed with Opera de Lafayette (Indiana), Opera West, Utah Opera, BYU Opera and Theater, Utah Lyric Opera Society and some local community theater groups. She has taught voice lessons pri-vately as well as at The Uni-versity for Children. She and her husband, Tom, enjoy music together and as a family. They reside in Springville with their five children.

Pianist, Ludmila Gudnina, was born and raised in the former Soviet Union (Azer-baijon). Her musical career began at the age of six. Paral-lel to general school she started musical school (7 years), musi-cal college (4years) and musi-cal conservatory (5 years). In 1995 she moved to America. Since that time she has played for Jacqueline’s School of Bal-

let, Utah Regional Ballet and Utah Valley University.

Mark your calendars as our next scintillating season begins Sunday, August 18, 2013 with Synergy, an award winning group of high energy cel-lists. On September 15th will be Aspen Winds, a fabulous wind quintet which specializes in musical storytelling. Octo-ber 20th will feature Wesley White, a very gifted local pia-nist. The Red Desert Ramblers headline on November 17th and the Utah Valley Hand Bell Choir will present their annual Christmas concert on Sunday, December 8th.

Marilyn Brown is the author of more than a dozen historical novels about Mormon history and themes of the West. Her latest work, FIRES OF JERU-SALEM, recently received praise from the web site, “Readers’ Favorite.”

FIRES OF JERUSALEM defines the activities and mis-sion of the prophet Jeremiah who wrote at least two books of the Bible: Jeremiah and Lamentations. However, he lived at the time when the last of Moses’s works was discov-ered by the priest Hilkiah, Jer-emiah’s father. So the scholars at that time were the ones who put much of the Old Testa-

ment together. Jeremiah suf-fered much persecution for his campaign against Jerusalem’s evil. No one listened to him.

The reviewer, (whose name appears only as Anne B.) writes: “Brown has written a very touching book. I found myself looking at Jeremiah in a whole new way. He begged and he cried for the people. There is little doubt that he loved the Lord and was faith-ful to Him. However, Brown has managed to give Jeremiah depth and personality. He is no longer the semi-boring per-son that cried and warned the people: he is now the man that was constantly ridiculed, faced death, lowered ito a well to died of starvation--and a man with political ties. . . . I read it

in one sitting. I found the tale fascinating.. . .I look forward to reading more of [Brown’s] books.

Marilyn Brown states: “I appreciated the perception of this reviewer. Next year, begin-ning in January, fourteen mil-lion people in the LDS faith will be studying the Old Testa-ment. In the past, studies have been sometimes dry and diffi-cult. My objective was to write something that brings color and interest to the scriptures.”

Published novelist, Angela Hallstrom, writes of the book: “This illuminating portrait of a complex, fascinating Biblical prophet provided the context necessary for me to make a personal connection with the ancient world.”

“The concerns of parents are many but most center around are our kids going to get a better education based upon standards we believe are important for growth, knowledge and ability to secure a successful career. Common Core was originally sold as local initiative but we now know it is Obama-spearheaded with a U.N tie. Are these groups -- the Feds and U.N. -- are not who we want selecting what our kids learn. As a chemical engineer, I see elimination of Geometry as a class and new Common Core Science standards focusing on discredited Global Warming as going away from giving our children -- our future - the knowledge they need and the ability to think for themselves. We need to improve education -- but using those who think completely the opposite from ourselves is not the way to do it.”

- Larry Cerenzie of Spanish Fork

“I am concerned with Air.org’s track record and believe that it should be looked at further. Air.org specializes in behavioral and social science, and I feel, is heavily slanted to left. One of my main concerns is that Air.org might target our children via behavioral and social science questions. Parents have a right to be involved in the process of their children’s education and should play an integral part in this new curriculum.”

- Matt Merrell

“I’m still feel that the most important education comes from the home and children are motivated to engage in school by having parents that are involved in their education. When you create a curriculum where parents are told that they do not have the right to see ques-tions on a test, and the knowledge of what is being taught in the classroom, you remove the parents availability to be involved in their kids education. And when that happens education becomes indoctrination.”

- Larry Pullen

“Common Core is the destruction of the traditional, classical American education. It will destroy our children’s’ dreams of being whatever they want to become. This is a birth to workforce track for the benefit of collective government and private crony capitalists who would love to access our children’s data and future.”

- Lisa Cummins

“Mr. John Jesse (the presenter) stated at least three major contradictions in his presenta-tion and numerous less significant ones. The presentation included platitude upon platitude without appropriate or concrete details. For example he said that a stair-like approach to education is wrong, that is must be a spider web. Then he showed examples of the assess-ments that wouldn’t let a student move on without showing competence for prerequisites. He said that Utah State is paying for and would be getting a custom solution, and then showed how all of the power of this system will be saving time by getting questions from other states and the fed. He repeated multiple times the importance for those present to be respectful of him and his answers, and then he specifically called out individuals in the audience calling them rude and ridiculous before the entire group. One audience member he called out every time she made a comment or asked a question. His own rudeness was impressive. I came to the meeting with an open mind about the presentation and am leaving completely convinced that we got railroaded by a poor sales job.”

- Robert Oldham of Salem

Mr. John Jesse informs parents about the $39 million dollar Common Core testing system.

Woman Speaks at SHS

Longtime Utah Valley resi-dents David and Leslee Hen-son went for a spring walk on March 4 in St. George, their home of six months. A 50-year-old woman was tex-ting and speeding 20 mph over the speed limit. Because she was distracted she hit another car that spun into Dave and Leslee, killing him and giving her horrific injuries.

Leslee is recovering from a broken neck and back, an injured clavicle and 5,000 stitches. Doctors had to reat-tach the nerves in her eyes and she had bleeding on her brain.

And now she is speaking out. She and her family have started a campaign called “Stop the Texts, Stop the Wrecks” to help people honor Dave’s memory by committing to drive safer.

“People have got to break the habit of using their cell phones while driving,” she said.

Leslee was invited to speak on April 24 at Springville High School where she graduated in 1973.

She stood, wearing a neck brace, fresh scars still visible, before a packed auditorium and told her story to students, family and friends. The sta-tistics in the slide show were powerful but can only do so much to make an impact. Lis-

tening to Leslee softly relate the loss of her husband and see pictures of him running mara-thons with his daughters, bik-ing with his wife and playing with his grandkids hit harder.

“Last time I gave this presentation we only had 10 grandchildren,” Leslee explained. “As of a couple of hours ago we now have 11.” That new baby carries his grandpa’s name.

She choked up as she spoke of her husband.

“We were high school sweethearts,” she said. “He is the love of my life.”

Recently crowned Miss Springville Madison Tormey also took the stage to explain why she chose her platform Dangers of Distracted Driving after getting pulled over one day. She was speaking into her phone to dictate a text, which still counts as a text and is against the law in Utah.

“I work for a law firm and tried to get some help to get rid of the ticket,” she explained. But Utah is taking this law seriously and she had to pay a $450 fine. The woman who hit Dave and Leslee was arrested and charged with vehicular homicide. She faces up to $10,000 in fines and up to 15 years in prison.

The Hensons are hoping to spread the message about distracted driving and how dangerous it can be.

“I just wouldn’t want any-one else to have to go through what our family has gone through,” Leslee said. “Park your phone before you drive. It could save a life.”

The Hensons’ website is stopthetextsstopthewrecks.blogspot.com. There is also a YouTube video recounting the story titled “Don’t Text and Drive: Leslee’s Story.”

Tonjelle & Mike Halladay, Independent Directors, for Scentsy were awarded Spanish Fork -Salem Area Chamber Business of the Month for the month of May. Congratulations!

Have you ever heard of the Ringling Bros. & Barnum & Bailey Circus? It is a combination of circuses started long ago, including one run by P.T. Barnum. Barnum was known for finding great circus acts, including Jumbo the elephant.

Barnum found Jumbo at the London Zoo where the elephant was famous for giving kids rides. In fact, when P.T. Barnum offered to buy Jumbo from the zoo, thousands of children wrote to Queen Victoria begging her not to let the sale take place.

Barnum bought Jumbo for $10,000 and showed the elephant in his circus until it died in 1885. Jumbo’s story did not end there, however. Barnum made several donations to Tufts University, and in his honor, the University named Jumbo its mascot.

FAMILY TREE: We savored torn chunks of warm scone dipped in flavorful honey butter. “It seems like the scones could be the highlight,” Todd said.

Some restaurants are known for certain specialty items that keep diners coming back . Mom’s in Salina has wonder-ful homemade pie. The Cow-boy Kitchen in Wellington has juicy plate-sized steaks piled high with curled French fries and the Family Tree Restaurant in Santaquin? You go there for scones.

These are not your run-of-the-mill puny scones. They are massive. Our server Cory Broadhead brought four out in a wheel barrow. Just kidding. But really, one scone could have fed the four of us – four looked like end pillows on your sofa. Not kidding.

There are so many descrip-tive words rolling around in my head I just have to get them all out: soft, warm, puffy, colos-sal, heavenly, addictive, eye-popping, memorable. There. I feel better. And you will too when you take my word for it and go get one. Or four.

The restaurant serves a vari-ety of breakfast, lunch and din-ner foods. It’s been in the fam-ily for many years but Cory’s mom Leslie took over about seven years ago. Cory said besides the scones, the most popular items are the country fried steak and the roast beef. We had a serving of each but she also brought us a couple

of things that weren’t on the menu – gravy fries and cheese fries. OK, if you’re looking to eat low fat or low cal, don’t order stuff like this. The fries are amazing – fresh cut, deep-fried potatoes. Smothered in cheese or gravy or not, they are one of the better things to order there.

“These are fantastic,” Amy Leah Smith said about the cheese fries. Her husband Todd was equally happy with those smothered in gravy.

“I’m not a gravy person but this gravy is light and good,” he said. We all agreed they are a bit addictive. We knew there was more food coming but it was hard not to just keeping picking at those two dishes.

Cory explained the way things were done a while back compared to now.

“Before my mom bought it they used frozen fries,” she said. “But my grandma put her foot down and now most everything is homemade.”

Let us pause and reflect on the scones again.

We savored torn chunks of warm scone dipped in flavorful honey butter.

“It seems like the scones could be the highlight,” Todd said.

“This IS the highlight!” exclaimed Riley Nelson, who has been to the Family Tree a number of times and knew what to expect. If you order just a scone it provides a nice meal teamed with a bowl of soup or a salad. But do as Cory

suggested.“We bring them out at the

beginning so you have them all the way through your meal,” she said. “It can be an appe-tizer and your dessert!”

Amy’s country fried steak dinner was actually two steaks and she found them tender and tasty. The ribeye Riley had was “a good chunk of meat” and was cooked to his liking. Todd appreciated the roast beef.

“After a hard day at work there’s nothing like a pile of roast beef on your plate,” he said. Riley added it’s one rea-son you go to a home cooking restaurant. We heartily recom-mend the roast beef – it’s ten-der and delectable.

And finally, let’s talk about scones.

We really were all flabber-gasted at the size of the scones.

“These are mammoth, gar-gantuan – easily the biggest scones I’ve ever seen,” Todd remarked.

Amy had her own take on the size and structure.

“I didn’t know there were fryers this big,” she said. “They are dense but not doughy. They are so dense they stay warm inside for hours. You come to the Family Tree Restaurant for scones and you walk out with a smile on your face.”

Oh, and a side note – the place is thought to be haunted. Ask any family member – they’ll share cool stories with you!

On Wednesday, April 17, Sierra Bonita had a Dr. Seuss celebra-tion. For this celebration, a poem contest was held. The judges were Chris Baird-the person who created a local newspaper called Serve Daily; James Redford who is a producer, director, and scriptwriter; and Nate Pyfer a musician and music producer. About 400 poems were entered in the poem contest, but only 9 were chosen as finalists. The three over all winners were, 3rd place Julianna Matteis, 2nd place Helen Linford, and 1st place Brianna Farnsworth. After the winners were announced, the finalists read their poems to the school. Then a song and dance production, “Seussical the Musical,” began. The kids partici-pating in it looked like newly painted Dr. Seuss characters. The scenery took us inside of Dr. Seuss books like “Horton Hears a Who” and “The Lorax”. After the performance, the 3rd grade sang “Read Me a Memory.” Then our honored guest, the Utah state schools superintendent, Martell Menlove, gave a short speech about reading. Everyone enjoyed this colorful celebration and had fun on this special day.

Springville High School is pleased to announce Camie Oakey as the Girls’ Head Basketball Coach. Oakey spent the last two years as the Head Girls’ Coach at Mountain View High School.

The ideas shared here opened my eyes to see Babylon and Zion much more clearly and helped me better under-stand how to move from the former to the latter.

In his General Conference talk in April 2006, Elder David R. Stone of Second Quorum of the Seventy took a good portion of his talk to explain how the culture that we live in has a surprising effect on our attitudes and behaviors.

Then, as if easing us towards the idea that the culture which surrounds the Saints and tempts us to abandon our val-ues is in fact the culture of Babylon, he stated, “Seduced by our culture, we often hardly recognize our idolatry, as our strings are pulled by that which is popular in the Babylonian world.”

Elder Stone then comes right out and suggests that the culture of Babylon is not the same as Zion’s. He stated, “We do not need to adopt the standards, the mores, and the morals of Babylon. We can create Zion in the midst of Babylon.” And, “We can live as a Zion people, if we wish to. Will it be hard? Of course it will, for the waves of Babylo-nian culture crash incessantly against our shores.”

Hm... “Babylonian cul-ture”... Wait! Babylon has a

culture! Merriam Webster’s Concise Encyclopedia states “Culture thus consists of lan-guage, ideas, beliefs, customs, taboos, codes, institutions, tools, techniques, works of art, rituals, ceremonies, and symbols.”

Based on our previously deduction that “Pride is the steppingstone to Babylon”, it is easy to conclude that Baby-lon’s culture consists of the belief that some people are less-than others (pride), the custom of relying on man’s wisdom instead of God’s (more pride), and especially, the institutionalization of those pride-based beliefs and cus-toms into man’s social organi-zations, eg. families, schools, businesses, and government. So, it’s not a big leap to real-ize that Babylon is any pride-based culture.

Elder Christopherson stated, “Babylon is the antithesis and antagonist of Zion”, then... Zion has a culture too! Which means, that Zion is any culture that institutionalizes humility-based beliefs and customs into its social organizations.

Therefore, if we want to “flee Babylon” and “build Zion” we must follow the process of identifying pride-based elements of our culture, root them out, and integrate humility-based replacements, or at least, come up with a plan to do so. Piece of cake!

Thoughts onZion

JESSE FISHER

Out grown your current home? Thinking of selling and moving up to a larger home? Are you confused as to what to do? These and other ques-tions about our current housing market should be a clue as to why you need to proceed with caution in today’s marketplace. As the saying goes: “knowl-edge is power.”

Arm yourself with as much knowledge as you can about our local housing markets. You can research the internet to help you to find that replace-ment home and to also help you to determine a possible value of your present home. A better resource and a time saver would be to contact a real estate professional. Some-one who is familiar and up to date on the current market. This should be someone who is active in the everyday mar-keting of real estate. Yes, I am talking about choosing a skilled Realtor.

After you have made up your mind and are ready to make the move up. Contact your Realtor and have them do a CMA (Competitive Mar-ket Analysis) of your home. This analysis will provide you with enough information to adequately price your home for sale. It is a buyer’s market out there. It is a good time to buy and a good time to sell if you

are making this “lateral move.”How can I buy without

selling my present home? Well, it all depends upon your situation. Do you have the resources and income to carry the mortgage payments on two homes? Do you have the necessary down payment without receiving your equity from your present home. It’s the old adage: “which comes first the chicken or the egg?” Do I sell first or buy first? How can I make sure it all happens simultaneous?

It rarely works out that way. Many sellers in today’s market will accept an offer to purchase with the condition that they must find a home within a cer-tain number of days. There are times that the reverse scenario happens and a buyer will make an offer “subject to the sale” of their present home within a specified time.

There are alternative ways to make sure that you don’t have two homes when you can only afford one. We will discuss some of those in future articles such as the “sale lease back.” Don’t be a “fence sit-ter.” Make that decision and move forward.

“For the most part, fear is nothing but an illusion. When you share it with someone else it tends to disappear.” Marilyn C. Barrick, Psychologist and writer. Until next month, keep smiling.

Summer, a time to work

A long time ago, in a genera-tion far, far away, children used to play. They used to play at, or imitate, adult’s behaviors and adult skills. Little girls played “house” and they rocked their dolls, “cooked” dinners and washed and ironed their doll clothes. Little boys had minia-ture tool sets, that were metal – not plastic. They could really build things like birdhouses and doghouses and soap box racecars and, well, anything their little imaginations could come up with. The children learned to be resourceful and to improve their skills so that when they got older they actu-ally had the beginning of use-ful skills.

Now the toys we give them teach them to sit for very long periods of time or to become fashion diva. How is that going to prepare them for anything? Even becoming really talented at playing computer games isn’t going to teach them how to create or implement their ideas. You need an education or useful skills to do that.

In a time, not too long ago, we started our children out at a very young age in learn-ing a trade or profession and they would study their craft for years under the tutelage

of a craftsman or mentor. The one advantage to this is that they didn’t graduate from high school or college still wonder-ing what they were going to be when they grew up. The bad side of the “way-it-was” is that the child didn’t always get to choose what they wanted to do. I now feel that the pendu-lum has swung too far to the opposite end because there is so much to choose from that many of our kids are choosing to not do anything. As parents we need to help them choose before they graduate to adult-hood – with nothing.

Now that school is out and our youngsters are out look-ing for summer jobs, let’s look at what they can accomplish. The one thing that you need to realize is that it should not be about the money, but more importantly, about what skills they are learning and how hav-ing a particular job will help them achieve their career goals. That is another thing, sit down and help them define possible career goals, before going to high school. Not the career that you want them to have, but rather the career that they are interested in.

If they want to learn how to take care of growing plants, landscaping and sprinkler systems then have them get a job at a city parks dept. If they are interested in a legal profession, have them apply

for a summer job, or volunteer, at a law office. If they want to go into the medical field, how about an unpaid internship at a medical office or pharmacy? Do they have an interest in cars? Have them work with mechanic or at an auto parts store. Interested in animals or farm work? There are always farmers looking for kids to haul hay or muck out animal stalls, or they can work at a tack and feed store.

The point is – let them get a taste of what they think they might like to do – and then let them. There is more to life than working at a fast food establishment for a pay-check, unless of course they want to be a chef. What does this have to do with prepared-ness? Everything! Prepared-ness isn’t just about storing food and water, even though that is important. Preparing our children with life skills and the ability to reason and work is vitally important. It is a waste of time, life and money if our kids go out in the world without useable skills. I have always felt that everybody should have a technical skill and a profession. Don’t just let your child’s life just sort of happen. Instead, prepare them to make educated choices and decisions that help them get to where they want to be some-day – when they’ve grown up.

I was born in Springville in 1940, went to school in Payson and graduated from Payson High School in 1959. I mar-ried Donna Bowles, in 1960 at the Manti Temple. We have seven children and I consider myself a jack-of-all-trades, master of none. My careers included an upholstery busi-ness, a policeman for Spring-ville City, owned the Frosty Freeze Drive in Nephi between 1972 and 1990 and retired as a truck driver in 2006.

I started carving in 2008 by teaching myself how to carve fish and little derby cars out of

2x4. In about 2009, my brother Ken invited me up to the Pay-son Senior Center for a wood-carving class. Ken only came about two to three times, but I enjoyed coming and learning.

One of the biggest things I have learned is to be patient when I’m carving something to make sure that it is right. I have won several blue ribbons at the Utah County Shows. My specialty is animals - elk, ducks, bears, falcons, and more. I use mostly Quaken Aspen and Bass wood. The large elk in the picture took around 10-15 hours to com-plete. The unfinished bear has been in the works for 2 months, working at it a little at a time. Carving requires patience, looking, studying, calculat-

ing, and being precise.When carving it is best

to be slow and prevent mis-takes. These mistakes may be very hard to repair. The two ways I have learned to repair something are to carve it down and plan again, or to use putty and build it up. Carving at the Senior Center is enjoyable as it is a great bunch of guys that will help you along the carving journey.

The Post Office Bank in the background is made in different styles with actual old PO Box doors. The doors have various designs, or are plain. Some have combina-tions, some have keys, or dual combinations and made out of various types of wood.

DAUGHTERS OF THE UTAH PIONEERS: In a small area of about 4 to 5 feet by 10 to 14 feet William Dresser Huntington and his wife, Harriet (Clark), had to put everything they would need to start a new life in Utah as they came west in a covered wagon. Either William or Harriet must have had a deep love for music to make the sacrifice of so much valuable space in the confines of the wagon for an organ. We know that the organ made the journey west squeezed in with hunting guns, spinning wheels, plows and baking pans as well as all of the other things pioneers of the 1850’s carried on the way west The Huntington family was some of the early settlers in old Hobble Creek known today as the city of Springville. The organ can be seen at the Spring-ville Pioneer Museum. The 0rgan having crossed the plains and passed down through generations was donated to the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers by Lottie Lambson, youngest of the Huntington Family. The organ was a blessing to the family and the pioneer community. It has been played on special occa-sions at the museum even now. Come see it and lots of other artifacts at the Pioneer Museum in Springville sponsored by the DUP. It is open Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 1:00 until 5:00 PM.It is located at 175 South Main There is no charge.

Ever heard the words, “Vio-lence is not the answer”? That is used in terms of argument. Fighting is common among middle school and high school students, and has been for years, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be stopped.

Some students get into fights to assure themselves popular-ity and attention, which they may lack. Others start a fight with crude words and horrify-ing actions. Profanity is just

taking that tension to a whole new level.

Many people want bullying and fighting to come to an end, but when people are at each other’s throats with hatred for one another, it’s hard to con-demn. Your expectation for something to stop can’t just be a hope or a wish, but an action.

If fighting assures you popu-larity, why does it get you into more trouble? To keep your-self out of fighting or violence, ignore any cruelty pointed towards you. This will give someone less pleasure than a

reaction of sorrow or cruelty as a counter-act. If such ten-sion arises anywhere you go, try getting new friends. If it doesn’t help, no friends are better than rude friends.

When a violent situation occurs just remember that fighting is not the right choice. If needed, yell for help, or tell an adult. DO NOT, and I repeat DO NOT take the violence from someone and keep it hid-den or capped up inside. Vio-lence can lead to many things and end lives. Let’s end the violence before it ends us.

Joel Martinez, the head coach of the boys basketball team at Merit Academy will be instructing a basketball camp this summer. The camp will be held June 17-21 at Merit Academy (1440 West Center Street in Springville). Girls and boys 3rd-12th grade are able to attend for only $55. Registration can be done online at www.merithoops.org. This basketball camp is a great way to improve your basketball skills at any level. There will be instruction on how to better your shooting, passing, rebounding, defense, and your teamwork.

No one could have predicted the outcome of Merit Acad-emy’s soccer season earlier this spring. The team ended the season in second place in Regions and has successfully made it through the first round of the 2A State Playoffs. They

will now move on to the quar-terfinals of Playoffs.

This is the first year Merit has had a boys’ soccer team. Many boys at Merit had requested a soccer team, but without a coach they couldn’t organize one. Joel Martinez, head coach of Merit’s boys basketball team, had to make the choice of whether or not to coach another sport this school

year. He decided to coach the team, because for many of the players, soccer is their passion and he wanted to give them the opportunity to play the sport they love.

Before the season started, the team knew that since they were a first year team who had never played soccer together, their chances of winning games were very slim. To their

surprise, they won eight out of eleven games.

Coach Martinez says that even though this season has gone well, he expects great things for next year. Although five seniors are graduating, including Theo Cazarez (the top scorer on Merit’s team with 14 goals during the season), Merit’s team will only get better in the upcoming years.

The younger players on the team will continue to grow as athletes, especially Rodolfo Peralta, a freshman who is the starting Varsity goalie.

With the odds stacked against them, Merit pro-duced an amazing team this year, thanks to a coach who pushed each boy to reach his full potential.

Hard work & a great coach equals success!Courtney Garcia

On Thursday April 11, 2013, Merit Academy hosted an event known to those in the CERT community as a “Mock Disas-ter.” Many new CERT (Com-munity Emergency Response Team) members, including 25 students from Merit, were able to work together and demon-strate their CERT knowledge, while saving victims.

Throughout the night, each group had 4 disaster stations to work through through. First off there was a medical mock disaster simulation. At this station, CERT members came across an earthquake scenario with tables and chairs scat-tered throughout the school Commons and victims (made to look injured through mou-lage) in need of help. CERT

members had to apply their knowledge as they practiced search and rescue, triage, and treating the vic-tims. This was one of the most hands on stations and required the CERT teams to be decisive and act quickly.

The second station required CERT members to practice carrying injured victims to safety and use their knowledge of cribbing to rescue a victim from under a “concrete slab.” The third station was a “table-top exercise” where CERT members discussed an action plan as if they were responding to an actual disaster.

The fourth station allowed CERT members to put out a simulated fire. CERT partners cautiously approached the fire simulator and worked quickly

to put out fires. Thanks to everyone who was involved in our CERT mock disaster.

We want to thank Spring-ville’s CERT team and ham radio operators who helped make the event successful. And we want to give a big thank you to Karrie Beardall, Martin Palmer, Brian Watson and Lyn Schofield who taught the CERT classes at Merit Academy. On May 7th, 25 stu-dents from Merit will receive their CERT certifications from Springville’s Mayor during the City Council meeting.

great deals...we also love find-ing those hidden treasures at our local farmer’s markets and boutiques. We wanted to find a way to showcase these ador-able one-of-a-kind items all while getting a great deal...and last, but not least, we needed a way to spread the word about childhood cancer and raise awareness for these kids, they are oh so close to our hearts.”

Dedicated to their mission, P.S. I Adore You blogs once a

month about a different child with cancer, and part of the proceeds from the sales on their website go to help these children. So far, P.S. I Adore You has only been up and run-ning for a little over half a year. But their following has grown rapidly.

Recently, a ten-year-old girl named Brielle with terminal cancer was featured on P.S.’s blog. Vendors who had previ-ously sold on P.S.’s website

banded together to help raise funds for Brielle’s family. They donated products to P.S., so that 100% of the pro-ceeds from these items would go directly to Brielle and her family.

Much to our surprised Leah Pollock from Jeri Thompson’s Class, not only won the school contest but is also one of twelve Utah State winners.

On Friday, April 26th she was honored as a winner at the Utah State Capital. This is the first State winner Mapleton Elementary has had since the contest began. We would like to personally congratulate Leah and thank her for sharing her talent.

Thanks also to Mrs. Day for her help and to all the students for so willingly participating!
