A Talent From Heaven

Recording “Take Time To Be Holy”

By Lyle Hadlock Composer

yle Hadlock is a local musician/songwriter-arranger, who found a niche in recording inspirational-instrumental songs built around his piano arrangements. “Whenever I go into the studio to record, I don’t know before hand what I’m going to come out with on 95% of my piano playing. Whenever I attempt to read from music while recording, a lot of the feeling is lost, so I do on the spot/ in the moment creating.” Lyle admits he’s quite a procrastina-

tor. The catalyst that got him recording was the death of his nephew nine years ago. “I sat in a darkened room one night after work, before going to my nephews viewing thinking of how short this life is. That’s when I picked up the phone and scheduled an appointment with a local recording studio. I recorded my first CD a week before Thanksgiving to share with people for Christmas.” It was from the proceeds of this first piano CD that Lyle was able to build a nest egg and start recording instrumental CDs, with an emphasis of inspirational music from the

Protestant and Mormon hymnals, with hints of well know classical music integrated into the arrangements. Since Lyle’s first CD he has been able to record seven more. In trying to think of a way to share them with as many people as possible, he provided them as an option to a Tomato plant, or petunia as mother’s day gifts to the mothers in Mormon congregations on Mother’s Day. He now has a web site www. lylehadlockmusic.com, where people can go to listen to his music, as well as buy it. “I have been blessed in being able to share what I consider a gift from God with many people.” The real pay off he says has been the intimate emails and letter responses from people who’s lives have been touched and comforted by his soothing arrangements. If he doesn’t procrastinate, Lyle hopes to have a new Christmas CD out for 2013 and if he really gets on the ball, have a live concert after Thanksgiving to debut the new CD.

LOCAL FILMMAKER’S NEXT FILM HAS A STORY NEVER BEFORE TOLD ON FILM By Brendon Porter Movie Producer

athan Smith Jones is a local filmmaker, having started his career making the Mormon Cinema comedy, “The Work and The Story,” (2004) the first ‘mock-umentary’ for an LDS audience. His latest film is also a unique story---so unique that in a “everything’s been done” world, the premise of Jones’ next film has never before been committed to film. It’s the story of an Arizona talkradio D.J. who awakens from a car accident with bilingual aphasia----he can only speak Spanish. “It’s pretty cool to make a movie that is at once very accessible and fun but with a premise this unique,” Jones says of his film ‘Tongue

It’s just a great, human drama with a lot of laughs,” says Jones. Through the last several years, Jones has written and re-written the script for the film to the point that he feels it’s ready, and that the search for money has been a blessing in disguise. “As we’ve looked for the funding to make the movie, we’ve been perfecting the script.” So sure is Jones about this movie’s chances on the open film market, he has invested much of his own money into it. But he’s also reaching out to the community to lend a hand. “I’ve been telling people to go to http:// indiegogo.com/tongue-tied

and watch the great promo video. If it makes them laugh, make a small contribution.” With 30 days left before their deadline, they’ve reached 9% of their goal for the first phase of the movie’s funding. “The people who have been helping are not right out of film school.

Kyani’s Exceptional Products: ”Kyäni” (KY-ahnee) means “strong medicine” among the Inuit Eskimos in Alaska. They should know. They have no words in their language for cancer, diabetes, arthritis or heart disease. A ten-year study zeroed in on two elements in their diet: the amazing Alaskan blueberry and fresh water sockeye salmon. In July 2010 I started

using the Kyäni products and in just three days I started seeing tremendous improvements in my blood sugar levels. After consulting with my physician, I stopped taking my diabetes medication! After a few more days, my circulation improved and after three weeks and further consultation with my doctor, I was able to stop taking my other medications for high blood pressure, high cholesterol and arthritis! I’m not making any claims; I can only tell you what happened to me. Plus in three months I earned a new Audi given to me by Kyani. Now two years later Kyäni has made an incredible difference in my life. I feel better than I have in twenty years, I have more energy. I’m happy, I’m having fun, and I’ve got the financial burden off my back. Kyani made it possible to start

any time of the day from anywhere in the world. Missing is the understanding of how to read body language, detecting underlying feelings and the joy of spontaneous interaction. Also, passively watching someone on a video screen work out life’s problems is a far cry from the experience of solving life’s relationship issues yourself. So, unplug your son. Have him use him cell phone for emergency calls only, say ‘No’ to always watching movies for fun, and if he wants to ‘hang out’ have him do it in person. “So, he dragged it along behind him in the dirt until the bottom was all scraped up and then he flung it into the bushes. What he didn’t know was that Sarah was hiding from John in there and when it came flying, it smacked her in the face!” “Where did he get it in the first place?” “I don’t know? He didn’t tell me that part.” Conversation is a skill best learned through practice. Talk to your daughter. Ask open ended questions (not ‘yes’ or ‘no’). Gather the family at the dinner table and watch as the days’ events unfold around you. There is a reason why talking over din-

ner is a basic get-to-knowyou dating activity – you really can get to know each other. Do it a lot and you get to know them well. Talk in the car. Talk in the line at the grocery store. People around you will enjoy it too! Involve them in the conversation. It’ll be fun. “I don’t care!” is one of the most hurtful phrases that come from a child’s mouth. It ranks almost right up there with “I hate you,” because they are essentially the same thing, not caring and hating. And it hurts your child the most. Teaching kids to care about others begins with your example. Share stories about people they don’t know. Help them feel badly about hard situations and rejoice with others when things go great. Empathize together. And care about your child. Find out how he really feels when his sisters threaten to put the picture of him modeling the wedding dress on Facebook. Ask about his friends. What was his Rose and his Thorn (up and down of the day)? Show interest. Laugh and cry with him. Live life for real and be his friend. Then he will know how to make and be one too.

Payson Business of the Month By Colin Logue Payson Bus. Owner

rrowhead Upholstery offers full interior restoration services for classic and late model cars & trucks, as well as motorcycles, RV’s, boats, golf carts and more. Whether you need a complete custom interior with seats, carpeting, headliner, door panels, and trunk lining, or just looking to mend your truck seat, we are here to help. Arrowhead Upholstery’s owner, Shessann Logue, has been sewing as long as she can remember. Starting young, she sewed doll blankets and designed her own doll clothes. She has worked on home interiors including custom window treatments & furnishings, antique furniture restoration and patio furniture cushioning. Shessann & her husband Colin purchased and renovated a charming building on Payson Main Street. Arrowhead Upholstery occupies the front half of the building. The ‘50’s themed design hosts plenty of room for reminiscing and dreaming up the perfect classic car interior.

From the days that the building served as a home for the administrative head.

While all the cutting, sewing, and creating are done at their Main Street building, she still rents garage space from Arrowhead Customs, just around the corner, to safely house cars, trucks, boats, and RV’s while they are being restored. Their Main Street building is also home to Colin’s Insurance Agency, Utah Avenue Insurance. He does most of his work with seniors and retirees, helping them with Medicare, Life Insurance, home/auto insurance, and other related products. Colin and Shessann always have some of their own restored classic cars on display in front of the their shop every day. Shessann drives a yellow and white ‘55 Buick Roadmaster while Colin drives an orange and black ‘73 Ford Mustang Convertible. They always have people stop by to

reminisce of the days gone by when Payson Main Street was full of classic cars. Arrowhead Upholstery has been very involved in the Payson community ever since they opened their doors. Last year, along with Glenn Wood at NAPA Auto Parts, they organized the Golden Onion Days Car Show. All the profit went to the Payson Kiwanis club for their scholarship fund. They hope everyone in the community will come to next year’s Golden Onion Days Car Show again so they can continue to donate money for scholarships. Colin & Shessann are also involved in the Payson Chamber of Commerce, Payson Kiwanis Club, and have helped out with many community functions that have made Payson a better place to live.

By Janina Chilton Museum Director

he Utah State Hospital Historical museum features both photographs and artifacts that bring to life the hospital’s history and the history of the treatment of mental illness over the past one hundred and twenty seven years. Located in the historic Superintendents Home, the museum displays medical equipment, patient crafts, clothing items and other items used in the institution from 1885 to the 1960’s. The goal of the

museum is to show how far treatment has progressed and to remind us that the history of mental health treatment is still being written. The museum is located on the Utah State Hospital campus at 1300 East Center Street in Provo and is the first building on the north side of the street as you enter the hospital. Hours are limited to Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1-5 p.m. but group appointments can be made outside of normal visiting hours. Call for details at 801-344-4635. Free to the public.

Ginny’s Genealogical Gems By Ginny Ackerson Springville Resident

his is a new column that will explore the many facets of family history and will help answer your genealogical queries. Each issue will discuss a topic and address a problem presented by our readers. If you have a comment or would like to ask a question please contact me at ginnysgenealogicalgems@gmail.com. This month I am going to discuss some of my favorite genealogical websites. The first website is the wonderful Family Search website; familysearch.org. This free website is sponsored and managed by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. There are records of many countries in several languages and the number of databases released grows almost daily. They just completed the 1940 census in 124 days and have over 70 indexing projects currently being worked on. This list will give you an idea of what is available on this website; there are 614 databases available for the United States; 76 for the United Kingdom; 64 for Canada; 50 for Mexico and 257 for Continental Europe. Any one can join the

indexing team by going to the FamilySearch home page and clicking on the indexing link. Another part of this website includes information on how to research and what is available to researchers on a local level. The Research Wiki is at https://www. familysearch.org/learn/wiki/ en/Main_Page and contains about 65,000 worldwide research articles. Another of my favorites is http://www.findagrave.com/ . They have over 85 million gravestone transcriptions from all over the world, but the vast majority are from the US and Canada. Some people have included family pictures, copies of vital records and obituaries with the images they post of the tombstone. You can contribute by uploading pictures of family graves if you would like to. USGENWEB is an organization that encompasses all states in the US

and all counties within each state. The websites are run by volunteer webmasters and vary greatly in the information they provide. Some have little more than the home page while others have many and varied databases. All information from this umbrella organization is free to the public, but one needs to be careful about copyrighted material that may have been posted to the site you can use it for your personal use but you may not publish it unless you get permission from the original author. http://usgenweb.org/ There is a fabulous family history conference on September 21 and 22 sponsored by the Utah Genealogical Association. “Climbing Your Family Tree” is the theme and the emphasis is on getting the entire family involved in family history. There are lots of research classes taught by experts and a special family track which has activities for children and their parents on Saturday the 22nd from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.. at the Miller Campus of the Salt Lake Community College near 10600 South in the Sandy/ Draper area.

Catherine Houtz Boyer Family Reunion By Larson Boyer Springville Resident

n May of 1853 Catharine Houtz Boyer, the first Boyer to immigrate to Utah, gathered her six children and departed from Pennsylvania to go toward Zion. She left family and friends and two lonely graves containing her husband, Augustus, and daughter, Bregetta. As yet, Catharine and her children were all un-baptized but that did not alter her desire to gather with the members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints already settled in the valley of Great Salt Lake City, Utah Territory. Traveling first by team, railway, and steamboat to Council Bluffs, Iowa, they would ultimately travel in a unique independent wagon company consisting of only 24 persons with only seven nd wagons, five of which were pulled by ox teams and two lighter wagons pulled by horses. More than half (13) in the company were under the age of 20. There were nine females and 15 males. Only two of the females were adult women. One of those was Catharine Houtz Boyer. Her six children were Philip Henry, John Sell, Francis Christian, Emma Elizabeth (Huntington), Lydia Maletta (Johnson), and Mariah Catherine (MendenPhoto: Sandy Allison hall).

clearly showing the first three generations of Utah Boyers (prepared mostly by Steven Salisbury, Logan, a descendant of Francis Christian); a representative (Jay Boyer) with a display from the American Boyer Association from Pennsylvania; a couple tables displaying extensive Family History accomplishments (Georgia Boyer and Dyanne Law); and a display under glass of a treasured piece of linen spun on a spinning wheel and woven on a hand loom by Catharine herself (now in possession of Catharine’s great-great-granddaughter Carol Hjorth Franklin). Meanwhile, the Houtz Boyer Family Ad Hoc Orchestra warmed up in the Relief Society Room. Everyone who brought an instrument of any kind comprised the orchestra. Singing together “You Can Make the Pathway Bright” united the crowd, and the program was opened with prayer by Kenneth Jarvis (Mesa, Arizona, descendant of John Sell). (That whole sentence is passive and should be active. It should read The crowd united in singing “You Can Make the Pathway Bright” and Kenneth Jarvis (Mesa, Ariz., descendant of John Snell) gave the opening prayer.) Then we were stunned by the Ad Hoc Orchestra playing “America the Beautiful” directed by Christian Smith (Provo, married to Patricia Bonney Smith, a descendant of John Sell – Christian plays the bassoon in the Orchestra at Temple Square). The Ad Hoc Orchestra’s second number, “Come, Come Ye Saints,” began with one verse as a harmonica solo by Melva Lobak Taylor (descendant of John Sell) followed by all the orchestra joining in. Those with instruments on the stage seemed almost like saints around a campfire. The somber setting was hastily brightened by the fiddles of Rick and Dallin Hansen accompanied by Cheryl Boyer Hansen (Idaho, descendant of John Sell). Next we were entertained by the Bonney Bottle Band finalized by cymbal crashes by Gabriel Smith, age 2 yr. 9 mo., when signaled by the director, his

father. A choreographed yoyo demonstration by Stockton Slack, Asher Smith, Ian Bonney, and Zachary Smith with fiddle accompaniment impressed us. Then came the climax of this reunion/celebration – a Power-Point presentation of the highlights of Catharine’s life and the lives of her six children, written and narrated by professional story teller Teresa Boyer Clark (Idaho, descendant of John Sell) which kept the audience in attentive, reverent silence. Presentation slide photographs were prepared at This Is The Place Heritage Park by professional photographer Calvin Hjorth (Spanish Fork, descendant of Mariah Catherine). We learned how self-administered dentistry – standard for the time – brought on the illness and eventual death of Catharine’s husband, who, with deep concern and long deliberation, signed over his three sons to his three brothers. Catharine loved these boys and yearned for them to be with her and their sisters. After two years of separation, disagreement, and eventual consensus with the extended family, events led to Catharine’s departure to the unknown West. They remained committed and served well throughout their lives. Their stories are intriguing, and the PowerPoint presentation is best appreciated in its entirety. It can be downloaded from https://dl.dropbox. com/u/18087048/CHBfinal. pptx. A final tribute to Catharine was a moving violin duet by Alex and Aubrey Smith Woods of the BYU music faculty playing Alex’s un-accompanied arrangement of “If You Could Hie To Kolob.” The reunion ended with prayer by Frank Boyer Salisbury (descendant of Francis Christian). More information about the reunion, pictures and hand-outs, Family History, etc., is available at the Catharine Houtz Boyer blog: catharinehoutzboyer. blogspot.com/ which is a temporary tool promoting family understanding, unity, and possibilities for further cooperative efforts.

Essential Oils Education Series: Inflammation By Worthy Lee hours of sleep is the body’s Independent Consultant best way of combating

Inflammation f you have ever been hurt or sick before, chances are you have experienced the 4 cardinal signs of an inflammatory response: pain, heat, redness, and swelling. You may not appreciate the pain, but it is a necessary response that guards the area of trauma and prevents further damage. Heat, swelling, and redness are all a result of the body sending white blood cells to fight off the foreign invaders or to begin healing of injured tissue. Chronic Inflammation Chronic inflammation occurs when our bodies fail to turn off the signals that are meant to help us. As a result, our bodies continue to experience long-term inflammation, which can lead to damage of surrounding healthy tissue. If uncontrolled, it can eventually lead to chronic illnesses and diseases such as obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, Alzheimer’s, osteoporosis, arthritis, cancer, depression, Parkinson’s, and even early aging, etc. 4 Things You Can Do Now to Reduce Inflammation Get Enough Uninterrupted Sleep: Seven to nine

chronic inflammation. Make sure you get the sleep your body needs! Change Up Your Diet: Limit or if you can eliminate trans fats and refined carbohydrates from your diet. Replace with healthy fats like Omega-3, extra virgin olive oil (for cold dishes), and macadamia nut oil (for cooking). Macadamia nut oil is good because it has a high smoke point and it also has a 1:1 ratio of Omega-3 to Omega-6. Antioxidant rich fruits and vegetables can take the place of refined sugars. Take High Quality Supplements: All the B vitamins, folic acid, as well as vitamins C, D, and E have anti-inflammatory effects on the body. dōTERRA offers a great three-pack of vitamins that specifically combats unwanted chronic inflammation. It is their number one selling product and comes with a 30-day money back guarantee. Bring back empty bottles for a full refund if you do not experience less Important Note: pain and more energy.

Gut: Think of your GI tract as the hole in a donut. Everything that is not the donut including the hole is actually outside the body. As a result, your GI tract is on high alert for attacking foreign invaders. One way to decrease this load for the lining is to do a cleanse to flush out unwanted contaminants. It is then necessary to replace the cleaned gut with good bacteria. A good cleanse and probiotic is dōTERRA’s GX Assist and PB Assist. Remember, just because you are not currently diagnosed with disease associated with chronic inflammation does not mean you do not have any. Early symptoms can be feeling tired, headaches, gassy, inability to let go of 5 pounds, etc. As always, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

How To Choose the Right Realtor

By Bill Brown Real Estate Today

ust what do Realtors do to earn their money? That is a good question. Unfortunately there are far too many that think that all they have to do is to put a sign on the property and hope that a buyer will give them a call. Or if they are lucky some other agent in the MLS will bring them an offer. Those experienced professionals in the real estate business who are wise enough to know that it take more than the above to make a difference in providing a great service to their clients. They are the ones who are able to make a good living

• • • • • • •

and will be in the business when times get tough. They know what it take to be successful. When deciding to list your home with a Realtor be sure to ask them what they will do for you. While there are no guarantee that they will be able to sell your home they should be able to guarantee the service they provide. There service should include the following: 1. Determine “fair market value” based on comparable sales data. 2. To identify a target audience for your home, that potential buyer. 3. Design a marketing campaign to reach that prospective buyer. 4. To submit the property across the MLS. 5. To install a high visibility sign on the property. (One that stands out from the others.) 6. To advertise the property on line including a virtual tour. 7. To promote the property to the neighbors. 8. To distribute flyers and descriptive material featuring your property. 9. To advise you in every

detail how to make your home more saleable. 10. To assist you in how to stage your home for showings. 11. To invite other agents to tour your home and receive their input. 12. To only show your home to prescreened qualified buyers. 13. To provide valuable feedback on a weekly basis. Keep the doors to communication open. 14. To represent you in all aspects during the negotiation process. 15. To network with other Realtors. 16. An to counsel with you in your next real estate purchase. There are only three main reasons a home does not sell: Marketing, price, and condition. If all of these conditions are met, your home should sell. Read the fine print in any contract or agreement. Don’t hesitate to ask for a service guarantee from your Realtor or have a way to fire them. Email your questions to billbrown@dishmail.net Until next month keep smiling.

hat does a downtown historic building with eye catching stained glass windows and massive inviting wooden doors call for? A fine dining restaurant with some of the best food and comfortable atmosphere in Utah Valley. Raise your hand if you haven’t been to Magleby’s in Springville. Stop reading. Go now. For many years the H.T. Reynolds building sat empty on Main and 200 South. A stately, circa 1892 beauty, it is again one of the most notable buildings in town. And not just for the stunning architecture. It boasts high ceilings and stately pillars but the lure is the food, starting with legendary rolls. Anyone who has eaten at Magleby’s or a Magleby’s Fresh knows about the rolls. Soft, melt-in-your-mouth delights with a cheesy crust, they are just the beginning of an unforgettable dining experience. Occasionally diners waiting for tables have been lucky enough to have Doc Parkinson, original co-founder, serve rolls in the waiting area. What other restaurant does that? The creamy Spinach and Artichoke dip, served with sourdough bread, tasted freshly made for us, not pulled from a warming oven. “This dip, I could just drink it,” said Jera Parker. The consistency was perfect for dragging the soft bread slices through it. Deep fried zucchini was crisp outside, tender inside. The calamari was the freshest I’ve tasted in land-locked Utah. It was crunchy but tender with no fishy taste. “This could change your mind about calamari if you’ve never tried it,” said John Bennion. Our plentiful entrees came piping hot and pleasantly arranged.

Griffiths is a world of magic once ruled by the Immortals: the great Spirit Dragons, the Air Phoenix, and the Dracme Wolves. Seventeen years ago, one of their own cursed them into mortal, human forms. The betrayer led the unmagical Okoru people against them, overthrowing the majestic founders, along with the Mystic people who served them. With each kill, the Okoru began unraveling the magic that held Griffiths together--the consequences of which, they refused to see. Now, in a world where a Mystic’s torn flesh is worth more than six month’s wages and death-auctions are whispered about in every Okoru city, seventeen-year-old Mystic twins, Wyan and Lor, are determined to change it all—and survive. Despite straining beyond his physical limits (not to mention his already thin patience), Wyan never inherited his Mystic abilities, and so mastery of Lor’s element would mean sanctuary for both of them. But when Lor’s plan unravels, Wyan is forced to take action on his own before the last of their kind—and his family—are sold to their graves. Within a land of unforgiving Fire and Ice, Wyan must find the one ally and master-warrior he never would have trusted before: himself.

Maybe It’s A Zebra

The remarks of children are often delightful. Some even become family jokes. One such statement by one of my grandchildren, was particularly imaginative and became the basis of this book. My three-year-old grandson, Steven, was riding in a car with his mother and me along the freeway, when I commented, “Oh! There is a dead animal on the side of the road.” Steven immediately said, “I want to see it! I want to see it!” I diverted Steven’s attention by asking him what kind of animal he thought it might be. Steven, after much thought, said, “Maybe it’s a zebra.”

by Pendragon Inman Shinehah Saga Book One Young Adult Fantasy

His imaginative comment, along with the creative drawings by my granddaughter, Leelyn, inspired the creation of this book. In turn, I hope that, “Maybe It’s a Zebra” will stimulate the active imaginations of many, many other children.

he mind of a child is a wondrous place. Often times a child does not answer in a way you would expect, and sometimes, you get a precious gem, like I did in 1996 when my grandson answered one of my questions with the interesting thought - “Maybe it’s a Zebra!” It was surprising and wonderful because only the mind of a child

would have thought of such a unique answer. This answer became a humorous family story. In 2004 the book “Maybe It’s A Zebra“begun as a way to someday share our story with others. Little did I know that the decision to share a family story would turn into a children’s book that now helps inspire children to read. At the time I started the book, I really had no idea

what it took to publish a book. I looked to family and friends for answers, and even joined a group for aspiring authors and writers. I ask my artistic granddaughter, Leelyn, to draw her interpretations from the script. Sadly, she passed away before completing the illustrations, but not before leaving an indelible mark. I next turned to my grandson Steven who had also developed into a good artist sharing many of the artistic loves that Leelyn enjoyed. He was also the grandson who had said “Maybe It’s a Zebra. Although interested in helping, he did not feel he could complete Leelyn’s illustrations in a way that would do them justice. In July, 2011 I felt an urgency this book needed to be completed by Christmas. This sense of urgency gave me the final push to get to the finish line.

Though we had challenges, after several attempts, I was finally led to an amazing illustrator who was able to capture Leelyn’s style and complete the book as she would have done it. This illustrator was Deirdra Eden. I am extremely grateful to Deirdra for her help. After some publishing starts and stops, the book was finished and the web site www.maybeitsazebra.com was born. Just prior to Christmas of 2011, I began taking orders. Books began delivering shortly thereafter. It is exciting for me that several school districts have purchased the books for use in their reading comprehension curriculum. The positive comments I have received from those who have purchased this book, have made the process all worth the effort. This has truly been a labor of love.

You don’t have to be a great artist to make a great puppet. All you need is a sock, a few art supplies and some imagination. Any sock you can slide your hand into and move it around will work for a puppet. If you plan to draw a face on your sock puppet, you might want to get a white sock. Slide the sock onto your hand, close your hand and mark where you think the eyes, nose and mouth should go. Then sketch or glue them on if using felt. Once your puppet has a face, you can give it a name and start practicing with it. You’ll want to try different voices and hand positions to bring your puppet to life.

On The Virtues of Service By Lisa Freeman Springville Resident EVOLUTION

oday on Facebook I saw a little poster. It said, “You are the product of billions of years of evolution. You are a human being. Act like it!” I love this sentiment, but it raised some questions for me. Questions like “What if you don’t believe in evolution? Would that make you exempt from behaving properly? What is it to be human?” and my personal favorite, “Billions of years, and this is all the farther we have come?” For the purpose of this discussion it does not matter whether you believe in evolution, creationism, or some combination of the two, because either way you have some responsibility to shoulder. I’ll explain why a bit farther on. Let’s consider first what it is to be human. This is a question the heavy hitters of philosophy and theology have pondered for centuries. I’m no heavy hitter in either field, so I can only give you the answer I have arrived at in my own life, and make my arguments from there. I believe the soul of “humanity” is mutual help and respect. Now let’s look at that from a religious point of view. If you are religious, you may believe you are here by God’s own hand. You are a special creation of God, unique and individual, custom made to God’s own specification. That’s a pretty deep responsibility. It’s an inescapable conclusion that if you are custom made by God, you have a responsibility to behave as God’s emissary on Earth. And if you are strictly an evolutionist? Well, that comes back to the idea that with all the time we’ve had to evolve, this is really the best we can do? Behave only for ourselves and our own gain? Steal that parking spot? Run that red light? Blame someone else for our mistake? Walk past someone who needs help that we could give easily, for free, in a few seconds, and just keep going? Whether you believe you are a personal child of some higher power, or a product of evolutionary circumstance, you can change the world, and you have a responsibility to do so. You represent who and what humanity is, every minute of every day. You create what humanity is, every minute of every day. So what is humanity going to be? Petty and small, no more than some glorified ape who has harnessed the atom, or a monument to all that is good and strong? By your actions you make it happen. They don’t have to

be huge, monumental actions. No one is asking you to be Gandhi. Just help. That’s all. Just help each other. Yesterday I was at a large, crowded store. I was feeling a bit cranky at all the inconsiderate people around me. As I left, there was a woman with several children blocking the exit. I felt annoyed. Then she looked up and said “Sorry.” She clearly meant it. I stifled my annoyance, smiled, and said, “No problem.” At that point, I meant it, too. I started toward the door, still some distance away, and suddenly a woman came running up from behind me. She jogged past me, calling, “Let me get that door for you!” I thanked her for her kindness as I stepped out into the bright sunlight. There was a man just in front of me, heading for the store. He was carrying a small child and several bags. Suddenly the child simply tossed his sippy cup to the ground. I watched the “How am I going to solve this problem?” look cross his dad’s face. Without some reorganization, he couldn’t pick up that cup. I said, “Let me get that for you,” and stepped forward to pick it up. Dad looked happy and relieved. As I stepped forward, a young man walked between us, literally stepped over the cup, and kept going, without even acknowledging our existence. I’m not judging him, who knows what was happening in his world? I retrieved the cup, and dad and I went our separate ways, but we both felt good, I think. I know I did. The point here is that in the space of perhaps two minutes, three people truly represented what the human race should be. Someone apologized for an inconvenience she had caused. Two people went only a little out of their way to help others. In those two minutes, we changed the world. Only a tiny bit, it’s true, but imagine how the world would change if everyone committed these tiny acts of service, daily, habitually, freely. Imagine the world if these tiny bits of service became the social norm instead of the exception. Today our world, even our country, our towns, our neighborhoods are fragmented by the sad normality of “me first.” I challenge you to change that. I challenge you to help strangers in small ways. I challenge you to live up to the obligation of being human. I challenge you to change the world.

Is it Ironic? Serve it up!

By Kasie Singleton Student in Yearbook.

erve Daily is a newspaper about past, current, and future service events that comes out once a month. Is this title ironic? You bet! But, honestly, who needs a daily reminder about service opportunities? The goal is not to nag people into serving, but to give various choices for service opportunities in the community. By reading Serve Daily once a month you are able to plan ahead, be proactive and set aside time to serve in projects that mean the most to you. At Merit Academy, students did service projects throughout the community during the first week of the school year. Doing these projects, like cleaning up the Provo Harbor, working on a farm, and just making others feel better brought the students together in ways that even surprised them. “It was great to meet new students that go here and be involved in helping others with them. It seemed to make us a real ‘team’ as a school on the very first day,” said 7th Grader Alina Flint. Though its name and frequency of publication of Serve Daily is ironic, its message to the community is not. It promotes a better future of living and thinking. We should all strive to think and live better and we can do this by serving and helping in any way we can.

Heidi - a book by Johanna Spyri. Fusion. Comparing Service Opportunities A First Day of Service! By Emily Haskins 8th Grade Student

eidi is a very well written book. It's about a girl whose parents die so she goes to live with her uncle. She stays as a friend with a young lady named Laura and her family for a while. Later she returns to uncle. Heidi has a hard time adapting to the city when she is living at Laura's house. Along her journey she creates friends, shows acts of kindness to others and gives service. Merit Academy and its service program are very good at services and kindness.Some representations of service are very common in this book. For an idea, Heidi one day is talking to Peter's grandmother, and expresses her worries about her house to Heidi. Immediately Heidi steps into action to help out by going and telling her grandfather (Uncle Alm). She convinces him to fix the house so that grandmother might feel more comfortable. As grandmother hears Uncle Alm hammering on the house, she is so happy and grateful for the service that Uncle Alm provided. This is just one of the examples of the value of service in Heidi. Here at Merit we have a group called ASK: Ameritus Service Knights. They are much like Heidi but in the modern world. They help out

whenever needed. The ASK program works on synergy, as in 1+1=3. One outstanding example of the service that the ASK program provided is Merit Academy's Soccer field. The ASK students spent a little over a week of knee busting, backbreaking hard work on that field. Besides the ASK program, Merit Academy has some of its own service projects. One paragon of the service Merit does is on the 1st day of school all of Merit Academy's students and teachers went down to Utah Lake to clean up all of the trash. Merit Academy is a model of service in the modern culture. In Heidi and at Merit Academy we are kind to others by helping them. For example, in Heidi, the grandmother is blind so she can't read or even remember the hymns that she learned in church. When Heidi is visiting Laura and her family, Heidi learns how to read. Grandmother was so glad when Heidi came back and sang hymns to her. Also grandmother cannot eat the hard black bread so when Heidi is visiting Laura's house in the city, Heidi each night for dinner is given a roll so she collects them in her wardrobe. Well, the rolls are eventually found and discarded because of the age of some of the rolls. After get-

ting punished for the rolls she cries all night and was sulking the next day. Later when Laura's father comes to visit and was informed of the rolls he gave Heidi some money to buy grandmother some white bread. This is an example of kindness and understanding. Through Heidi's care for grandmother and through Laura's father's caring for Heidi, grandmother was able to eat white bread. At Merit Academy we also show kindness to others by standing up for them. When someone is getting bullied, no one suddenly cares about what click you're in, they just care about the person getting bullied. One year a kid was getting shoved into a locker and all of the sudden that bully was surrounded by people from every click ready to fight if needed. Service is a great way to show kindness to others. When we are doing service or being kind that sometimes includes sacrifices. An exemplar of such is when Heidi hikes with the goats and Peter one day, and she sees him switch a goat. Heidi is right there on the scene to help and protect the goat. Peter doesn't like the idea that she came up with to not switch the goats so they make a deal. Heidi ends up giving Peter her cheese everyday. All of the goats show their love to Heidi for protecting

them. An example of the modern world is, last year when I went to Merit, on the 1st day of school we went and did a service project. We helped a man that was disabled with a park that he was in charge of tending. We helped him with a lot of things but the job that I did was to put inserts into a chain link fence. It was hard to do when you are not that tall. It was also very hot and the fence was very long so it took a long time. In the end when we finally finished the man was extremely grateful for all of the helping hands. When we and others do service it helps everyone. It influences those who are watching, it helps those in need, and it helps us in our own ways. There are ways of service and kindness everywhere and in every time period. Service helps more people than we notice in different ways. Merit and Ameritus Service Knights are excellent paradigms of service in the modern world. In the book when Uncle Alm fixes Grandmother's house and when Heidi sacrifices her cheese so that the goats can feel loved are some great examples of service and kindness. Little acts of service also help and influence others. Most of all, little acts of service and kindness are the things that people in life will remember the most.

$2 OFF Any Laser Tag or Mini Golf Game

By Jenilyn Shiles and Jessica Harris Students in Yearbook

Monday August 20th the students at Merit Preparatory Academy were all abuzz following several mini leadership, and team building lessons. Following these lessons the Merit’s student government planned several service projects. Half of the student body took a ten-mile bus ride down to Utah Lake, while some of the student body also stayed behind at Merit, and the rest went to help the community at a farm down the road. Those that went to Utah Lake spent an hour and a half picking up debris and trash from the lake shore and surrounding campgrounds. Many students loved the idea of going to Utah Lake, to help out the beloved state park. Robert Tulley, a Merit student, commented, “Utah Lake was hot and infested with bugs, but it was exciting and interesting due to the fact that every corner held an undiscovered treasure.” Those students who had stayed behind at Merit have also expressed love for their own service projects on campus. Some students helped cut up plastic bags for their sister school in Africa, Mtulu while others enjoyed the freedom of creativity in the theater smashing and sorting wood. Some also enjoyed their time making cancer booklets. Becky Trammel, a Merit student said “Service is pointless without fun; luckily it was lots of fun, the smallest things help added up to a great experience.” While those at Utah Lake and Merit seemed to be enjoying their time; however, those that went to the hobby farm down the road also had a charming experience. The students spent their time stripping old paint off the fence, and helping with basic maintenance. All in all, Merits first day of school went off without incident other than the occasional fit of laughter. Even the teachers were enjoying themselves Mrs. Wilson, one of Merit’s teachers, commented that “At Merit we believe that the most important thing is for our students to learn how to do service without a reward.” This is more than a comment at Merit it is a well-known fact.

Our Duty! Preserve Liberty By Ogden Kraut Author

he year 1776 marked a temporal victory along the path of freedom from oppressive government control and taxation. When the new American government was announced to the public, a lady asked Benjamin Franklin what kind of government had been given to them, to which he replied, "A Republic, ma'm, if you can preserve it." The preservation of such a coveted form of government from outside attack or deterioration from within, requires the constant vigilance of its citizens. Over the blood-soaked Mason-Dixon Line, we recaptured a freedom from slavery; from the Alamo and Pearl Harbor we stemmed the tide of imperialism and dictatorships. However, the battle to preserve our freedom rages on. For two decades we have lost many battles and suffered heavy losses against the forces opposing our freedoms. Today we are witnessing the creeping and ever subtle socialist cause within the very borders of our choice land. The burden of taxes has exceeded the taxation which

resulted in the Boston Tea Party. Freedoms in nearly every avenue have dwindled as our Government expands in size and its controls. [102] Too many citizens who should earn their bread by the sweat of their face, are demanding federal means to solve their economic desires. Never before in American history have the fears from outside aggressive forces, and also the inward insurrections, been met with so many apathetic and unpatriotic citizens. The rise of war and anarchy threaten to crush our inalienable rights of freedom; yet, apparently, only very few Americans are concerned. The time has arrived for America to rekindle that spark of patriotism and spirituality which marked the mettle and character of our early forefathers. Only with a love for truth and a deep spiritual faith, will Americans obtain courage to defend and preserve liberty. The American Revolution was only partially won, because the battle for freedom continues. (Thanks to Kevin Kraut for providing this article)

What Does Serve Daily Hope to Accomplish with this Newspaper? By Chris Baird Serve Daily

ver the course of the last few weeks I have had multiple people ask me a question similar to that of the headline. How did you start and what are your goals? When I started back in March of 2010 as a club on Facebook I never foresaw what would become of what I believed to be a small endeavor. Back then, I created a business card that said – Been Served, Pay Forward in bold along the top – then under that it says, “ The outcome of the act is profound – Once you have been handed this card, you have “ BEEN SERVED” – Now it is your Opportunity to “Pay Forward” an act of service to someone that you believe would benefit. I still have over a thousand of these cards and try to get 4-5 out a week. I would love your help and will give anyone a card

that will do a random act of kindness and give one to the person and ask them to “Pay Forward” and pass the card along. The cards also have a space on the backside of the card to track the acts of kindness. Come November of 2010 I grew a love for the Constitution and raised a few hundred dollars from local companies to print off 350 copies of the constitution on printer paper and handed these out at various stores and local parades the following summer. I wasn’t a business at that time, but in March 2011 I realized that since I was able to raise funds to promote liberty and freedom I may be able to do the same with a small company. So I went to work, I took a piece of paper and designed a small coupon brochure and went and sold about 36 ads, a blessing that lead me on to where I stand today. My brochure caught the eye of Roger Strong,

from Orem, who does Tidbits of Utah County – see his site at www.utahlocalpaper.com. Remnants of my brochure can be found in current issues of his paper on pages six and seven. March, it seems, appears to be a magical month in my life. Why? March of 2012 I had the idea, which was very hard to make to start my own local paper. What do I call it? What is my focus? What do I do? I don’t have education for it! I don’t know anything about this field! UGHH! Is this what He wants me to do? (My Father above) Things fell into place, as there are angels all around me. I have been greatly blessed and am full of gratitude to all those that helped and continue to do so! I won’t answer all these questions now, but I will say the mantra of SERVE DAILY came to mind and I know I wanted to SERVE, PROMOTE LIBERTY, and HELP LOCAL BUSINESS!
