We applauded and they simply stood there and after about a minute they applauded us back. Our guide said this was the first time they had seen foreigners. Marvelous experience. As part of your Papua, New Guinea itinerary you will visit three very different areas: the Sepik, New Britain and the highlands. You will be hiking through dense and beautiful forests, plus traveling the river and meeting these interesting people. Go soon before it catches on with tourism. For many years India has been on the tourist map and there are many areas to visit. When you go there you will want to see the famous Taj Mahal (in Agra), the Tigers (in Rathambore National Park), and ride on an elephant (at the Amber Palace in Jaipur), and stay in a local village called Pachewar and walk up a hill to see a temple in Pushkar. The train rides in India can be memorable and well worth the time to do so. Try and book the best available accommodations for the route you wish to take. You’ll be glad you did. India is a very large country and you should study information carefully in order to decide which parts you wish to visit. Again, I suggest an organized tour for the first time traveling there. Be prepared to see the very poor while traveling through areas that are run-down. Cambodia has seen a troubled past, but today the area is safe for tourism. Most people travel there to visit and walk about the famous temples of Angkor Wat and Angkor Tom. You have probably seen photos of these temples with a reflecting lake, but to actually visit the area is still a surprise.
Payson Summer Concert Series June 1 - MC6 A Cappella - MC6 is an a cappella group founded in 2004. Reaching back through the years, MC6 will bring your doo-wop favorites from the 50's and 60's to the stage in a way you've never heard before. June 8 - The J Powers Band - The J. Powers Band is a 5-piece group, with a mixed-bag of R&B, Blues, Soul, Motown, Reggae, Pop & Classic Rock. June 15 - Blue Frog - If you are looking for footstoping, hand-clapping, “jump off your seat” kind of music, Blue Frog is it! June 22 - Breaking Point - Playing a variety of music which includes top 40, Jazz, Blues and Country.
June 29 - Junction 87 - Voted 2011 Best Local Band, Junction 87 is a local, hard-working country band that rocks out. The concerts are held in the beautiful, open-air setting of Green Valley Park’s amphitheater area. While the performance are held in the band shell, the audience can sit on blankets on the ground or bring a lawn chair. They generally start at 7 p.m. and will be presented every Saturday night in June and also in July. Refreshments will be available for sale from the Christopher-Kohl’s Fire Department’s auxiliary the FireBelles.
The only problem is the heat and humidity you will experience here. You should be of good health because any visit requires a lot of walking. What’s so special about these ruins? Almost every surface of Angkor Wat has carvings depicting various subjects of life. Fascinating! I have had the good fortune to have visited many temples all over the world and those of Angkor Wat and Angkor Tom rank number two and are just below those found in Egypt. Definitely plan to visit here in an organized tour. You will have all your accommodations reserved in advance plus have the knowledge and experience of a local tour guide who will impart information you will need in order to fully enjoy the sights. As part of your Angkor Wat experience, plan to book a tour that includes Thailand, Phnom Penh (the capital of Cambodia) and a good hotel in Siem Reap, which is near the temples. Cambodia is no longer off the tourist map, but still well worth
seeing. If you are a cyclist, consider joining a cycle tour in several parts of Europe. You can experience some of the world’s most interesting sights with other cyclists, beginning perhaps in southwest France on the Atlantic Ocean riding through the Pyreneese Mountains. Your trip will include meeting fascinating locals in France and end on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea in Spain. Or take on the classic climbs of the Alps exploring the most dramatic climbs of the Tour de France through the gorgeous French Alps. This will include 21 switchbacks of the Alpe d’Huez. You’ll be soaking up the scenery of Alpine glaciers, high-altitude meadows and interesting mountain towns. You can try tasty foods such as crepes, fondue and fine red wine. You could also cycle through Tuscany in Italy or Provence in France. As we often say, the world is your oyster. Try it for taste.

RIM HISTORY RIM HISTORY RIM COUNTRY HISTORY | TIM EHRHARDT
THE HISE FAMILY Payson is named for Lewis Edwin Payson, an Illinois Congressman. But how did such a small place come to the attention of such a man? The answer is like Hise; as in John Hise and family. Here is a look at this man and his family. John H. Hise Sr. started off as a newspaper publisher in Ottawa, Ill. in the 1840s. He eventually became involved politics and was mentioned during one of the Lincoln-Douglas debates of 1858. Hise was a legislator in the Illinois State House during the 1870s and this is where he likely encountered TIM EHRHARDT Lewis Payson. Given what can be gathered from later newspaper accounts, it seems that Hise was a politically connected man. The March 2, 1876 Decatur Republican provides a little bit of a sense. “Again, for Auditor, they nominated Mr. Hise, of Chicago, another Democrat, and by his own statement in the convention, of the old school – such as John C. Calhoun, Yancey, Bob. Toombs and Jeff. Davis used to be, now known as Bourbons – who it is said never learned anything and never forgot anything” Hise had two children, Frank and John H. Jr. By the late 1870s John Jr. had set up shop in Globe in partnership with W.P. Shyrock for a general merchandise store. At some point around 1880 it appears that John Sr. had joined his son in Globe and
became involved in a variety of things including as a board member of the Arizona Mineral Belt Railroad. The Hises moved to Green Valley (Payson) in the early 1880s and set up a store. Frank Hise joined his father and brother and when Green Valley received a post office in 1884, Frank became the postmaster. In the summer of 1885 John Jr. moved with his wife to Flagstaff. They had had an interesting happening on the way as this clip from the Aug. 15, 1885 Arizona Silver Belt tells. CHILD BORN UNDER PECULIAR CIRCUMSTANCES
On Tuesday last a circumstance occurred when ushered into the world a bright little baby under peculiar surroundings. Mrs. John H. Hise, of Green Valley, Tonto Basin, who was about to be confined started from her home for Flagstaff with her husband’s pack train. When they arrived at what is known as the Potato ranch, about one day’s ride from Flagstaff, she complained of feeling unwell, but concluded to continue her journey, and when about five miles this side of the ranch, was compelled to stop, and gave birth to her child. This occurred in the morning, and all that day and night she remained on the ground with the child, her only attention being from the man in charge of the pack train. The following morning a man came along the road, and the two arranged a littler, upon which they carried their precious burden back to the potato ranch, where she received the care and attention
of those of her sex. The mother and child are doing well” - Flagstaff Champion It should be noted that the Arizona Silver Belt clarified a week later in their August 22 edition that “Mr. and Mrs. Hise drove over from Payson with a buckboard together, the husband and wife being confident they could reach Flagstaff and be near a physician or assistance before the expected arrival of the baby. When about four miles this side of potato ranch the mules attached to the buckboard took fright and ran away, which excitement hastened Mrs. Hise’s sickness, and they were compelled to stop on the road. There were with the party, Mrs. Thistle, Mr. Adams, the head packer, and Mr. Fleming. Mrs. Hise had every care and attention from her husband and those around her, and there were seven in the party who conveyed her back to the ranch. So all the romance is gone from the circumstance, in reference to her being alone with the packer when the birth appeared.” In 1885 John Sr. was appointed Surveyor General of Arizona. The Nov. 14, 1885 Arizona Champion said that Hise “is highly esteemed as a gentleman of ability and integrity. He is an elderly gentleman, having passed three score and ten and has been a life long Democrat. While it is claimed that he is an Arizonan much of his time has been spent east. The appointment will be generally considered an acceptable one throughout the Territory.” It appears that Hise had been lobbying for some sort of federal appointment. Just a few months before in their May 30, 1885
issue the Arizona Silver Belt had written that, “J.H. Hise is still in the East using what influence he has to secure the Governorship.” John Hise Sr. served as Arizona Surveyor General for four years and he died shortly after leaving office. His obituary in the Nov. 26, 1889 Decatur Daily Republican described him as “a man of great ability and high character.” The Hise family owned Little Green Valley and by the end of 1888 had put it on the market. Here’s a clip from the Dec. 26, 1888 The Weekly Arizona Miner, which it had taken from The Arizonan, about Little Green Valley. “Mr. Hise has a beautiful and romantic home. Little Green valley has an altitude of about 5,000 feet above sea-level and nestled under the rim rock of the Mogollons, which rise perpendicularly 500 to 1,000 feet above it. It is situate 100 miles from Phenix; the same from Prescott, and 50 miles from Winslow on the Atlantic and Pacific railroad. He has 160 acres under fence, and its water controls a magnificent stock range from 6 to 8 miles in extent. The valley itself, which is principally rolling hills, embraces about all the arable land in that region, and last year produced about 1,000 tons of hay, 10 tons of corn, besides vegetables. That the place is profitable as well as pleasant is thus demonstrated.” John Hise Jr. and Frank Hise moved to the Los Angeles area. Frank died there in 1894 and John died in 1892. While the Hises were in Gila County a relatively short time, they certainly made an impact.

many great actors. Tobey Maguire (who you might recognize as Spider-Man) comes to the big screen once again for the role as Nick Carraway. And who plays Gatsby you might ask? Well none other than Leonardo DiCaprio himself. DiCaprio, known for his diverse roles in Inception, Shutter Island, and of course his most famous role as Jack in Titanic, returns for the role of Jay Gatsby – a millionaire with many rumors of who he is, and how he came by his fortune, in what could be an Acad-

Carey Muligan, an upcoming British actress from Drive and Pride and Prejudice performs the role of Daisy Buchanan, the cousin of Nick who is torn between Gatsby, an old love from five years ago, and Tom, her husband who has constant affairs. Carey Muligan gives a truly emotional and terrific performance.

Supporting Role, and the Academy Award for Best Visual Effects. The Great Gatsby was a truly fantastic movie, with amazing acting. This movie is set back in the Roaring ’20s, during the time of bootlegging, gangsters, and flappers. Gatsby does a terrific job of recapturing the scenery, tone, costumes, and feel of the ’20s. It covers the secret bars, the old New York City, the difference between the blacks and whites, the rich and the poor, and so much more.

Every year a solemn crowd gathers at the Veterans Memorial at Green Valley Park as the community pays tribute to veterans, living and dead, as part of the Payson Patriotic Events Committee and the Town of Payson-hosted Memorial Day ceremony.
‘We will never forget’ Payson pays tribute to veterans They are getting grayer each year and there are fewer of the most senior among them, but the chairs still fill at the annual Memorial Day tribute to veterans in Payson. The Payson Patriotic Events Committee and the Town of Payson are presenting four different tributes to veterans who have died in service to the country and honoring those who have defended and continue to defend it. The programs will take place over the course of two days – Sunday, May 26 and Monday, May 27. Everyone is encouraged to attend at least one of the ceremonies and if at all possible the entire quartet. • The Annual Pioneer Cemetery Tribute is at 8:30 a.m., Sunday, May 26 at the Payson Pioneer Cemetery, at the corner of South Vista and Mesa, just north of the Payson Golf Course. There will be a flag-raising ceremony and the cemetery will be open for visitation. The Pioneer Cemetery Board sponsors the program. • The Annual Mountain Meadows Tribute in Round Valley is at 10 a.m. Taking place at the Mountain Meadows Memorial Park, Messinger’s Payson Funeral Home sponsors the program with the support of the Payson Patriotic Events Committee, the Veterans of Foreign Wars and the American Legion. • A special flag-raising ceremony will be held at the
Mazatzal Hotel & Casino flagpole at 8 a.m., Monday, May 27. The program includes speakers, patriotic and bagpipe music as well as the National Anthem, an invocation and benediction. • The primary Memorial Day Tribute is at 10 a.m., Monday, May 27 at the Green Valley Park Veterans Memorial. Hosted by the Payson Patriotic Events Committee and the Town of Payson, the program will open with patriotic music and be brought to order by a narrator, who will introduce Bill Sahno, Colonel, U.S. Marine Corps (retired) of the PPEC who will offer a welcome. Father Lowell Andrews will give the invocation, followed by a presentation of the colors by the Civil Air Patrol Cadets with the National Anthem. Scheduled to speak following the CAP Cadets are Mayor Kenny Evans, Tonto Apache Tribal Council Chairwoman Louise Lopez, Payson Police Chief Don Engler and Payson Fire Chief Marty deMasi. Eric Landau will present a medley of tunes on the bagpipe and offer a rendition of Amazing Grace as well.

Rim youth have banquet of choices for fun BY TERESA MCQUERREY RIM REVIEW EDITOR
School will be out for summer this Friday, so what are the kids going to do? Some may be lucky enough to find summer employment; some might have to take remedial classes in one subject or another; some may be fortunate to spend time at a summer camp. Athletes will be engaged in summer training at some point. And for everyone else – the area libraries; many churches; and the Payson Parks, Recreation & Tourism Department offers a banquet of opportunities for fun. PINE PUBLIC LIBRARY
Pine Library is getting ready to Dig Into Reading. The Isabelle Hunt Memorial Library in Pine will start is summer reading program Wednesday, June 5. Children from ages 5 through 12 are invited to participate from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. each Wednesday in June at the Library Activity Room. Each week there will be a new topic covered with activities planned. June 5 the topic is Dig into Dirt; followed by Dig into Art on June 12; Dig into Honey and Bees on June 19; and Dig into Treasure and Food on June 26. The Library Activity Room is at 6124 N. Randall Place in Pine. Contact the library at (928) 476-3678 for additional information. PAYSON PUBLIC LIBRARY
While participants in the Pine Library’s summer reading program will be “digging into” this and that; those in the Payson Public Library’s program will be going “beneath the surface” from the first week of June through the middle of July. Registration for the Payson summer reading program is taking place now. Class size is limited, so early registration is encouraged. The programs are planned for children ages 6 months to 18 years and designed to promote reading and learning and maintain skills through the summer break from school. Every other Monday during the course of the program, June 3 through July 17, there is a book club for teens from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. Those 12 to 18 may also participate in the Beneath the Surface Summer Reading Program Children ages 3 to 12 are invited to participate in one of three sessions of the Dig Into Reading Program. There will be a one-hour, in-house program with puppet show, arts and crafts, fun games and food at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Tuesday and at 10 a.m. Wednesday, from June 4 through July 10. Also on Wednesdays at 2 p.m. there is a ’tween class for those 9 to 12. The Beneath the Surface Summer Reading Program from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. every Thursday, from June 6 through July 11, is for young people ages 12 to 18. In addition to reading, participants will have craft projects, build time capsules and much more. Youngsters don’t have to enroll in one of the library’s classes to take part in the summer reading program’s prize giveaway just by reading from the book list and keeping a log on their own, said Emily Linkey, director of the Payson Public Library. To learn more and register, stop by the library at 328 N. McLane Rd., Payson, (928) 474-9260; hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., Wednesday, and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday. PAYSON SUMMER RECREATION PROGRAM

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) An apparent act of injustice might turn out to be either an error in judgment or just plain stupidity. So calm down and cool off, and let the explanations roll out. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) It’s upsetting when someone you trusted might have failed you. But with new opportunities ahead, you’ll soon be too busy to feel even a wee bit sorry for yourself. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A sense of uncertainty could be a good reason to change your position on an important matter. Someone close might try to talk you out of it, but it’s your decision to make. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Being too zealous in pursuing your goal could create some resistance. Try to be more mindful of what you ask people to do, and they’ll be more likely to do it. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Things change as you go from being ignored to being Lionized once again. This is a good time to reintroduce those previously rejected ideas to a more receptive audience. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Someone new in your life creates both anticipation as well as anxiety. Avoid the potential for misunderstandings by watching what you say and how you say it. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Watch your budget so that you don’t overspend now and have less to invest when the time is right later on. Arrange to share your weekend with someone special. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) The temptation to involve yourself in a friend’s or family member’s personal problems is laudable. But get the facts before you make a firm commitment. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) You might be upset by some of your critics. But most of your associates continue to keep the faith in your ability to get the job done, and done well. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You’ve reached an important point in your ongoing pursuit of your goals. You might now want to consider letting someone you trust join you on your journey. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) You’ve been going through a spate of uncertainty involving people you care for. But it might be time to take a stand on a position you feel sure you can defend. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Treading water keeps you busy, but it won’t get you where you need to go. Time to stop making excuses and to start moving ahead toward your goals. BORN THIS WEEK: You see life as both creative and pragmatic. You would not only be a fine artist, but also a successful one. © 2013 King Features Synd., Inc.

GARDENING | MELINDA MYERS
Garden time’s flying by Increase your garden’s productivity even when space, time and energy are limited. Just follow these simple planting techniques for a more bountiful harvest. Maximize your planting space with wide rows. Leave just enough room for plants to reach their maximum size. Make wide rows, 4- to 5-feet wide, so you can reach all plants for maintenance and harvest. Minimizing walkways means more planting space. Try interplanting. Grow short season crops like lettuce and radishes between long season crops like cabbage, tomatoes and peppers. The short season crops will be ready to harvest when the long season crops are reaching mature size. You’ll double your harvest and grow more vegetables, not weeds between your longer season plants. Grow more plants per row with succession planting. Start the season with cool season vegetables like lettuce and spinach. Once these are harvested and temperatures warm replace with beans and onions. Harvest these and plant a fall crop of radishes or lettuce. Go vertical. Train vine crops up decorative or functional trellises and supports. Growing cucumbers and melons upward increases light penetration and air flow, reducing the risk
Thursday and Saturday. Swimming lessons will be offered from 9:15 a.m. to 11:45 a.m., Monday and Wednesday, and from 5:15 p.m. to 6:45 p.m., Tuesday and Thursday. The cost is $12.50 per week. Adult group swim, costing $35 per month, is from 6 a.m. to 7 a.m., Monday and Thursday. Water aerobics, at $2 per visit, is from 9:15 a.m. to 10:15 a.m., Monday and Wednesday. Lap swim, at $2 per visit, is from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday. For more information, go online to www.EvoSwimSchool.com/payson or call 1-877-539-5009.
of fungal diseases. Pole beans are much easier to harvest and produce an additional picking. Secure large fruited vegetables like melons to the trellis with a cloth sling. Be sure to plant vegetables in containers if in-ground space is limited. A 5-gallon bucket or comparable size container is perfect for a tomato. Peppers and eggplants will thrive in a bit smaller pot. Grow vine crops in containers and allow them to crawl over the deck or patio instead of valuable gardening space. Harvest often and at the proper time. Zucchini and other summer squash should be picked when 6 to 8 inches long or in the case of patty pan squash it reaches 3 inches in diameter. The flavor is better than those baseball bat size zucchini and you’ll have plenty to eat and share. Harvest your head of cabbage when firm and full size. Leave the bottom leaves and roots intact. Soon you will have 4 or 5 smaller heads to harvest and enjoy. With a bit of planning and creativity you can find ways to increase the enjoyment and harvest in any size garden. ABOUT THE AUTHOR
