“Jesse James” The Wild West

Each year The TimberWolf Grill puts on a huge feast and scary entertainment to help raise funds for The Food & Care Coalition. Without a doubt, this years Haunted Halloween experience was the best yet, and set the bar even higher! The lobby was transformed

into a lumberjack camp complete with a lumber mill, and plenty of zombie lumberjacks to give you a scare. After making your way through the ‘forest’ you entered a set of swinging doors into the saloon. The details were amazing: Saloon piano music, saloon girls behind the counter serving drinks, and even the occasional bar fight and a broken bottle over some poor cowboy’s head.

The buffet was also amazing. There was plenty of smoked pork, brisket, chicken, and shrimp as well as lots of sides and desserts. Outside was the fire pit where you could build any smores creation you could dream up. After filling your plate you then headed into the ‘O.K. To Die Corral.’ There was plenty of entertainment to keep you going. Jesse James (Charlie Wolf), and Frank James (Nathan

Wolf), ran the show, complete with shootings, a hanging, and fending off an Indian raid. They even roped the Sheriff (Dustin Palmer) and slapped him in the stockade, where people could donate to The Food & Care Coalition to smack him in the face with a pie or crash a bottle on his head.

LIBERTY SHALL BE MAINTAINED A CALL TO RETURN TO JUST LAWS Roots of Freedom would like to give you a free pocket copy of The USA Constitution.

“Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God.” ~Thomas Jefferson

“Yea, behold I do not fear your power nor your authority, but it is my God whom I fear; and it is according to his commandments that I do take my sword to defend the cause of my country...” ~ Captain Moroni, Alma 60:28 (Book of Mormon)

Men are that they might have joy; joy comes only under liberty.

~Casey Beres

“Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.” ~George Washington

“I prefer the tumult of liberty to the quiet of servitude.” ~Thomas Jefferson

OBEY THE CONSTITUTIONAL LAWS OF THE LAND Understanding Liberty Casey Beres of Springville

Many members of the LDS church and non-members alike often use the adage that we are to “obey the laws of the land,” seemingly saying that we must uphold the law no matter what it is. I have also often heard the cliché “rules are tools.” But, it seems that those who use these adages look upon them and use them in isolation, without consideration of reason and the rest of the revealed word in the Scriptures. In other words, I do not think they mean what the utterers think they mean, or rather, there is more to their meaning that what meets the naked eye. This month, I will investigate these adages and explain them in the context they are to be understood, not in isolation, as many utterers of them seem to use them.

It is true that D&C 58:21 tells us that we are to obey the laws of the land. But, D&C 98:4-7 also says that concerning the laws of the land, we are commanded by God to befriend the “law of the land, which is constitutional,” meaning we are to befriend the Constitution, which is justifiable before the Lord. And “pertaining to the laws of the man, whatsoever is more or less than this, cometh of evil.” The Lord also informs us that the purpose of the Constitution is to maintain the “rights and protection of all flesh, according to just and holy principles,” so as to preserve man’s moral agency and accountability. Further, the Apostles and Church laid down their beliefs concerning human government in D&C 134, adding even further understanding of just exactly what laws of the land we are to obey and support. Verse 1 of D&C 134 says that God instituted government for the benefit of man, to preserve to him his rights and moral agency and its

accompanying responsibility and accountability. Also according to verse 2, it is government’s job to secure to each individual and group of individuals their right to “the free exercise of conscience, the right and control of property, and the protection of life.” Thus, the adages that “rules are tools” and that we are to “obey the laws of the land,” when considered in conjunction with the aforementioned scriptural truth, mean something far from how people generally seem to use them. Indeed, they mean that government and law in general is not only good, but absolutely necessary for the protection of rights and improvement of man, and as long as those rules or laws are based on truth and secure to all flesh their true rights, they ought to, indeed MUST be obeyed. But this doesn’t mean that we are to obey and condone any law just because it is the law. Legislation must earn its sacred status as “law” by being based on truth and protection of equal

rights; otherwise it’s merely an oppressive edict issued by unjust criminals who use force of arms and punishment to enforce it. If we are to obey the laws of the land, which are constitutional, then it seems we are supposed to oppose and not obey those laws which are unconstitutional, or which are in direct contradiction to the Constitution and its spirit of liberty and equal rights. There is much talk in the legal world of the letter of the law and the spirit of the law. If the Lord says that the purpose of the Constitution is to preserve the moral agency of mankind and secure to all flesh the natural and civil rights of mankind, then would we be in the wrong to oppose and even peacefully disobey laws of the land that do not follow the spirit of the constitutional law of the land? The scriptures abound with examples of wicked men making wicked laws and righteous men disobeying these laws because they were unjust and contrary to the higher law

of God. Even Captain Moroni in Alma 60 threatened to wage a revolution against his own government and dethrone its apathetic judges whom he thought weren’t supporting the Nephites in the just fight for their liberty and rights against the aggressing Lamanites. Say a law was passed that all citizens must steal 10 percent of their neighbor’s property, and give it to the government. Such a “law” is the “law of the land.” But would you obey such as law? Laws may be “laws,” but they must have the force of truth and be in harmony with the laws of nature (which are the laws of God) before they can be of any legitimacy and force. When God says in D&C 58:22 that he who obeys the laws of God has no need to disobey the laws of the land, I believe He means that when the laws of the land are in harmony with the laws of God, no man is justified in breaking the laws of the land. But when the laws of the land break from the

laws of nature and nature’s God, they are no longer binding, and only brute force will keep them in place, until the oppressed can take the oppression no longer. The Constitution says that if we are alter the Constitution, then we must do so by the amendment process, laid forward in Article V. But as citizens, even as LDS members, we have failed to uphold this part of the law of the land when we vote in, support, and condone legislative, executive, or judicial changes to the Constitution outside of the amendment process. If we want the Constitution to be different, the law of the land says that we must alter it officially through the amendment process, as difficult as it may be, not cut corners and condone the legislative, executive, or judicial altering of the that document.

When asked to define “small town feeling” common replies are ‘We like the unique homes and neighborhoods’ and they also reference the obvious value Springville exhibits on being known as the ‘Art City’. These persistent comments reflect what I believe is the ‘charm’ that is unique to our City. If elected I hope to preserve that feeling, that ‘charm’.

variety of boards, committees and organizations. I gained an appreciation and respect for the employees of our city that make sure we have the infrastructure, utilities, services and opportunities that contribute to the quality of life we enjoy living in Springville. I am aware of the thousands of hours that our citizens volunteer in a variety of programs, events, boards, service clubs and

other organizations that are the heartbeat of what is right with Springville. It is this spirit of community and volunteerism that persuades me to run for city council. In downtown Springville at the intersection of Main Street and 200 South there is a statue by Scott Myers titled Sixty Years in the Saddle. It features a rugged cowboy sitting on his horse headed one

direction, while he is turned, looking back to where he has come from. This symbolic pose sums up how I feel about the opportunity to serve on city council. Just like the cowboy, we need to continually be moving forward. We all want the future of Springville to be bright and we need to be ready to meet the challenges that lay before us. At the same time we need to be mindful and

respectful of the honorable traditions, values, sacrifices and people that are the history and heritage of Springville. I invite you to take a closer look at this statue next time you drive down Main Street; hopefully it will add a positive affirmation to your perception of living the good life in Springville.

which creates a stable sales tax base for the community. I am serving on the Springville Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors. As a member I understand the needs of Springville City businesses. As a business owner myself, I am willing to do whatever it takes to meet those needs. I have spent my life working in the advertising and marketing businesses and I currently

manage the advertising department at the Daily Herald. This gives me the unique opportunity to speak with many businesses each day and know their needs, wants and desires, especially to identify what cities can do to partner with them in success. As business succeeds within the boundaries of a city, so succeeds the city by gathering increased sales tax. I will fight to continue the

economic growth in Springville, so that as residents we can continue to enjoy the amenities.. Throughout my life I have given countless hours of volunteer work to the city of Springville. For the past eight years I have been the chairman for Springville City’s “Art City Days” celebration, and have also given countless hours of service to Springville’s “World Folk Fest”, “Movies in the

Park”, and the Springville Museum of Art. I have served on the Parks and Recreation Board, and Electric Board of Springville and have come to understand how these departments work. I know what it takes to keep a city running and how all the parts work together; I will hit the ground running knowing the challenges and issues that we face.

Chair and PTA at Westside Elementary, where my four children attend school.. During my years on the Library board I have been a part of the construction of the new library and have worked to serve with diligence and attentiveness both the Library and the community it serves. Over the last two years I have strived to be better informed by regularly attending City

Council meetings. In an effort to help others be more aware of what’s going on I have posted things I hear about, summaries of City Council meetings as well as links to meeting agendas on my Facebook page. As a councilwoman I will increase my efforts to help you know what’s going on and how you can have a voice in what happens here. I promise that if elected to the city council I will

work hard to find effective solutions as I apply common sense principles and transparency to the decision making process, continue and increase my efforts to help you be informed through honest, open communication, approach issues with an open mind while respecting the needs of the community and individuals, and continue to serve my community with dedication.

Let’s work together to help Springville continue to be a great place to live and raise a family and be the best it can be as it grows. To learn more about me please see my full Bio at www.springville.org

I have had the privilege of serving on the Planning Commission with Mayor Boyer, Mayor Mangum, and Mayor Clyde. I have worked with great fellow Commissioners over the years whose dedication to serve the City of Springville has resulted in significant and positive changes for our City. Additionally, because of a very efficient and professional Planning Department, I have

learned about such things as City government good practice, ordinance development and planning strategies, to name a few. I have also been privileged to serve with many citizens on various ad-hoc committees. If elected, I would be honored to continue to serve Springville citizens as a City Council Member. My only ‘promises’ would be: To give top priority to

practices, codes, ordinances and strategies that promote the safety, health and general wellbeing of our citizenry– And, to diligently encourage and foster citizen input, participation and, where appropriate, implementation of goals, new ideas and programs that enhance our quality of life and further the objectives laid out in “Shaping Springville 2030-General Plan”.

Also, if elected, I will seek to implement promotional campaigns, events and business generating strategies that support our current businesses. I will also welcome new business development as we continue to grow as a city. I support commercial design standards that reflect Springville’s heritage and also serve to unite the City as a whole.

Payson Veterans Home grand opening Submitted by Local resident

A World War II Veteran, 97 year old Bill Murray, was welcomed as the first resident in the Utah State Veterans home on Monday the 9th of September. Having lived in several different cities and states, Bill’s last residence was in Mt. Pleasant before coming to Payson. Home Director, Shauna Kraus has been in charge of getting the homes staff hired and trained along with complying with all the state and federal regulations required before residents could be admitted. After the first five residents were admitted a delay in the medicare/medicaid certification was brought on by the government shutdown. The certification was finally received and the Central Utah Veterans Home began admitting more

residents to bring the resident population up to between 21 and 24 residents, which is the number of residents needed before the Federal VA survey could take place. An open house was held on October 29th at which time there were about 18 residents in the home and others scheduled for admittance to bring the total to 24 in time for the Federal survey which is scheduled for the week of November 4th. Once this survey is complete, and all requirements are met at 100% compliance, veterans can be admitted to bring the home at or near capacity at a census of 108 residents. Staffing is currently at about 50 employees, with more being hired as the number of residents increase When running at or near capacity the Central Utah Veterans Home will employ about 160 to 170 people, providing about $4 million

People with good attitude, Pondering while in solitude Having faith and fortitude, Recognize their plenitude, Seeing, too, all pulchritude, Thinking, feeling, then conclude, Gratitude is attitude, Not a lowly platitude.

Fall in all it’s splendid glory, Visually tells creation’s story. God is love in boundless measure, Giving us delight and pleasure. Hearts are filled with deep emotion, When we view God’s sweet devotion. Thanks we give for all we see, Earth and sky and every tree. Blazing tones impress our minds, Yellows, reds and other kinds. Nature’s beauty where we trod, Grateful are we to our God. - by Yvonne N. of Elk Ridge

Cherry Creek

On Monday morning, Oct 21, Harward Farms in Springville pulled up a huge flatbed trailer full of pumpkins to donate to each student at Cherry Creek Elementary. That’s over 850 pumpkins! The students received a pumpkin with a smile from the workers and some even got a special sticker. Since the first graders were on their field trip, the 6th graders got to surprise them by leaving a pumpkin on each student’s desk. The students had time during school to paint and decorate their pumpkins with future winners being voted on by the student council and faculty. Look for the pumpkins to line the halls of the school. A big thank you to Harward Farms for their generous donation!

Red Desert Ramblers to Perform in Sunday Concert Series Ginny Ackerson Arts Commissioner

The Red Desert Ramblers will perform a free concert at the Springville Museum of Art on Sunday, November 17 at 5 pm. The concert is part of the Sunday Concert Series sponsored by the Springville Arts Commission and is free to the public. The Red Desert Ramblers play Bluegrass, Classic Country and Swing music blending harmonies with smoking instrumental breaks. The Salt Lake Tribune says “when it comes to locally produced bluegrass bands, it’s hard to do better.”

They have been honored by the International Bluegrass Music Association by being the first Utah Band (and Sharon is the first hammered dulcimer player) to EVER be hired for an IBMA performance and were the only bluegrass band featured at the Mountain West Conference of the Arts. Members have won several awards including Sharon as best Utah dulcimer player and Rick Martinez as best banjo player for IAMA. They are a regional band with national recognition and members hail from Salt Lake, and Summit counties representing the best of Utah. Regional/National festivals include International Bluegrass

Music Association FanFest in Nashville; Darrington, Washington Bluegrass Festival; Pickin’ in the Pines (Arizona); Memorial Day Bluegrass Festival (Grand Junction, CO); Southern Nevada Bluegrass Music Association Festival (Logandale); Bannock County Bluegrass Festival (Pocatello, Idaho), Portneuf River Bluegrass Festival (Lava Hot Springs, Idaho)—Bluegrass in the Barn (Nampa)—Idaho Sawtooth Bluegrass Association (Cascade), Birch Creek Bluegrass Festival (Fountain Green, Utah), Red Rocks Bluegrass Festival (St. George, Utah), Windwalker Ranch Bluegrass Festival (Spring City, Utah) and more!

We Sell Pellet, Wood Burning Fireplaces & Freestanding Stoves.

December the concert series presents the Utah Valley Hand Bell Ringers. The hand bell choir was formed in 1993 by director Karen Eskew-Wyllie. The members volunteer their time to share their love of bells. There are 56 bells cast in bronze or aluminum, each tuned to a single note. This concert is a cherished tradition and is very well attended. Because of the large demand there will be two concerts, one at 3:30 and one at 5 pm at the SMOFA. This concert is free but tickets must be obtained from the information desk at the museum. Tickets are now available.

Photo provided by: Ginny Ackerson THE RED DESERT RAMBLERS look forward to playing for you at the Sunday Concert Series.

The Value of Fermented Foods Healing Foods Katherine Scott

An increasing number of people are realizing that the basis of good health is good nutrition, thus, many people are achieving better health simply by improving their eating habits. The secret of good nourishment comes mainly from our plant world. This time of year there is an abundance of fresh fruit and vegetables; too much to consume in one season. We must look for a way of preserving them to use throughout the year. There is a method of doing just thatone that has the added benefit of bestowing superior healing properties to vegetables. Most of you are familiar with sauerkraut, a fermented cabbage which is rich in enzymes and vitamin C. Lactic acid- fermented vegetables allows us to eat fresh, locally grown vegetables, even in the middle of winter. Attention was focused on the nutritional importance of sauerkraut when in the 18th century, sailors often suffered from scurvy, a vitamin c deficiency. Captain Cook sailed around the world carrying barrels of sauerkraut, not

losing a single man to scurvy during his three- year voyage. Sauerkraut is easy to digest, due to the abundance of enzymes and healthy bacteria. Perhaps it’s greatest benefit is cleansing the small and large intestines and replenishing them with healthy bacteria. People who rely heavily on meat and animal protein have potentially dangerous alkaline bacteria. The bowel must be slightly acidic to resist germs and harmful intestinal bacteria. Fermented foods are helpful because the natural lactic acid contained in them tends to neutralize the alkaline bacteria. This creates cleaner, healthier blood and a greater resistance to germs and infection. Most commercially available sauerkraut is pasteurized merely to improve its shelf-life. It does not hold the same healing properties that the naturally fermented product does. At Beehive Health Essentials in Spanish Fork you will find a quality brand in the fridge section. The other alternative is to make your own. We sell the fermenting jars and instructions in the store as well. We hold excellent classes from time to time given by our fermentation expert, Jim

Sumsion. Get on our email list or Facebook for upcoming classes. Dr. Ann Wigmore made a fermented drink from sprouted grain i.e. wheat, rye, barley, millet, which she called “Rejuvelac”. This too helps cleanse the intestinal tract, adds healthy bacteria, and supplies nutritional elements such as proteins, carbohydrates, phosphates, vitamins and many enzymes. Revuelac is instant energy which contains the full complex of B vitamins which aid in the calming and rebuilding of nerves. I am delighted to answer any further questions on the subject. Email me at katherinescott1234@gmail.com Rejuvelac Instructions Soak wheat seeds for 10-12 hours. Drain. Let sprout for at least one full day until you see a tail. Rinse twice a day. Put a wet cloth over the bowl, to keep the seeds moist. Grind sprouted seeds in a blender Put one cup ground seed sprouts into a gallon jar and filled with water. Let stand at room temperature (68-72 degrees), stirring twice daily for two to four days.Rejuvelac may be ready in as little as one day.

Eyes, nose and taste buds will find happiness at Zubs Pizza & Subs Restaurant Review

KAYE NELSON Superlatives are overused. When people say “it’s the greatest ever” or “that’s the best fill-in-the-blank I’ve ever had” it might be unbelievable because it only applies to the memory of the moment. Why not just say, “it’s really good”? Much more believable. Zubs is really good. Zubs has an extensive menu. Some items are their own creations, all listed and ready to point at. Others are waiting to come out of your brain – you can build whatever pizza or sandwich you want with a bevy of offerings. Waiting for his order was Springville resident Jason McWhorter. “We’re from California and we had to find a good pizza place,” he said. “We love this place. They make a really good product – you get a lot for what you pay for.” He raved about the desserts but just like dessert, I’ll save that for last. Employee Amanda Houghton suggested their most popular items. “The BBQ chicken pizza is

ordered the most,” she said. “For the sandwich it’s probably the Steak and Stuff.” So we ordered one of each plus a few more “most populars.” Each was not “the greatest ever” but was satisfyingly really good. Probably the most tantalizing was the combination of smells. Zubs is not a sit down eatery – you order and take your food. The aromas on the way home were incredible. It’s a feast for your nose, for sure. In past years pizza places have toyed around with toppings, sometimes missing, sometimes hitting. Tasty and artistic, the Fiesta pizza was a hit. “That pizza is beautiful,” commented Riley Nelson viewing artfully arranged tomatoes, avocados and sour cream on top of spicy ground beef and salsa. “There’s lots of fun things going on,” said Ken Kenworthy. “It has fun and original concepts.” His wife Shawntelle agreed. “It reminds me of a Navajo taco in a pizza – spicy with sweet juicy tomatoes that work really well together.” It was easy to see why the BBQ chicken pizza is most ordered – it had a tangy sauce with chunks of grilled chicken and red onions. It was a little too sweet for some but I liked how it all came together on the crust. “The crust is incredibly bready,” said Amy Leah Nelson Smith. It had a nice inside soft texture with a great oven-touched crispiness. Ken pointed out a few things about Zubs’ crust. “A) they have a nice crust that doesn’t offend and B) it’s safe

– it’s done well. The bad thing about pizza is if you mess up on the crust,” he said. “They don’t.” The Greek pizza has a base of olive oil and crushed garlic – a savory treat, then topped with spinach, red onions, black olives, fresh tomatoes, mozzarella, provolone and finally feta cheese. “All the Mediterranean flavors are there,” Shawntelle said. Amy agreed, “It lives up to its name.” You can’t go wrong with a good old ham and pineapple pizza. Sherry Wheeler wasn’t disappointed saying, “it’s so good it makes you want more.” Biting into the Steak n’ Stuff sandwich was heavenly. “This sandwich is really good,” Ken said. “I like that they didn’t go easy on the cheese – I hate it when a place goes chintzy. This is all nicely melted together.” The turkey and avocado

sandwich’s ingredients were another feast for taste buds and eyes. Colorful and fresh, this sandwich, as with others, is made on a soft sub bun. Last but not least, Zubs offers eye-popping desserts. Not your measly plasticwrapped brownies aging near the cash register, these enormous desserts beg to go home. “We have an employee who makes the desserts here,” Amanda said. “She makes cinnamon rolls, brownies, pumpkin cookies and more.” Springville residents wanting a delectable dessert should just stop in. Provo residents will be happy to know Zubs is opening a store on Freedom Boulevard and will happily include desserts. I just gained a few pounds thinking about it.

Harward Farms hosts Slash Bash Emily Franson of Eli Kirk

November 1st was the 5th Annual Eli Kirk Slash Bash, held in partnership with Harward Farms in Springville with over 800 people. Slash Bash is a free event to say thank you to our clients and employees for a great year!

from Art City Elementary On Tuesday October 8, 2013 The Kindergarten classes, from Art City Elementary, Mrs. Morgan, Mrs. Miner, and Mrs. Gleave, had the opportunity to go on a field trip to Pumpkin Land at Vineyard Garden Center in Orem. The Kindergarten classes have been learning about the four seasons and Fall. Students made their way through a corn maze, visited with various animals, played on a playground including a giant pumpkin slide, made their way through the light alley, and picked out a pumpkin to take home. It was a great way to celebrate the fall season. -Have a great Thanksgiving, Christmas, and other Holiday season! Give much.

“JUST HANGIN’ OUT IN THE BARN,” was awarded Best of Show at the 2013 Annual Woodcarving Show in Spanish Fork on October 12. Congratulations to All!

Utah Valley Woodcarving Club names Best of Show Kelly Thurgood Wood Carver

Eight or nine years ago, Kelly Thurgood started a carving (Yes, this is a carving!) that his youngest daughter had chosen as a piece that she would inherit when he passed away. She gets the original carving, after he casts thirty limited edition

bronzes. This carving has taken over nine hundred hours (off and on) throughout those years. This piece started out to be just a barn owl, but then came the hayloft timber that the owl would be perched on. The timber was fine but did not look complete. Kelly added, er well, carved a bolt with a hook attached to the timber. His wife’s father had an old pulley with a rope for hoisting

hay up into the barn loft. He used it as a model to carve the pulley and rope. He had never carved a rope before, what a task that was. At that point, he thought it was complete after all the time he had put in over the years; however, it was missing something. The mouse was the last addition to. . . “Just hangin’ out in the barn”.

Have you ever noticed how many, many parts there are to a well cared for child? There is the emotional building part, the positive feedback part and the brush-your-teeth and drink plenty of milk so you can have great teeth part. It’s a little overwhelming! There are so many sides to a person and every one of them needs attention at one time or another. One facet of a child that all too often gets neglected is the invisible spirit within. Because it is invisible and the effects of spiritual neglect are not immediate or obvious, parents who would be appalled to think of neglecting their child’s nutritional or educational needs might not see the importance of seeing to their spiritual needs as well. But just like someone I know whose children’s teeth are yellowed and pitted whether through neglect or poor nutrition (or possibly genetics), the consequences of withholding spiritual nutrition are real and widespread. When I was in Denmark as a 16-year-old, the brother of a friend of mine committed suicide. He was 18 years old, an orphan and was left with the charge of his younger sister. Society made sure he had the money he needed to fulfill this task. But his life was too much for him and he quit. And he was not the only one. Over the years, I have watched the trends of suicide in Denmark and wondered about the cause. My knowledge about society there is limited but I have noticed one thing. The spiritual education is seriously lacking. Although Danish

schools have the advantage over American schools in that religion is taught in the classroom, it is taught as a subject of secular or historical interest, not as an encouraged way-of-life, or a way to feed your spirit and make a more emotionally healthy you. The lifestyle over there, although wonderful in a hundred different ways, is definitely lacking in the spirituality department. I have wondered often if this failure to feed the spirit could be a contributor to the high suicide rates. Regardless of religious affiliation, each person has an intrinsic need to recognize a higher power in their lives, AKA God. It is interesting to note that in addiction recovery programs the first step to recovery is to acknowledge that there is a God and He is a part of our lives. It is amazing to note that placing God where He belongs, in a position of power and support to us, is essential to becoming emotionally and morally healthy. So, how do we go about feeding our children’s spirits? First don’t be afraid to talk about God as if He is real, because He is. He is in His heaven and watching us and wanting to help us through this hard time. Treat Him that way.

See His blessings in your life and verbally recognize them to your children. Tell your little ones how grateful you are that God created such beautiful things around us. Help them recognize that when we are naughty, it makes Heavenly Father sad. Teach children to pray. Teach them what happens when we pray. When my middle son was three we were grinding wheat to make bread. All of a sudden the wheat grinder ground to a halt and our progress toward great smelling fresh bread was delayed. After several minutes of troubleshooting ways to get that grinder to work again my three-year-old recommended that we pray. It worked and has been running like a charm ever since. Recognizing God in our lives, seeing that we have a spirit that needs feeding too, praying, attending church and reading God’s word will bring about better health both emotionally and physically. Teach these things to your children by love, not by force. If you have a story to share about feeding the spirit or even if you want to debate the issue, write to mothergoose911@yahoo.com

Cultural pumps of influence Thoughts on Zion JESSE FISHER

Elder David R. Stone, in his Conference talk, “Zion in the Midst of Babylon”, taught that Babylon has a culture. And, since Zion is an alternate society to Babylon, it has a culture too. Common definitions of “culture” include the social institutions that pass on that society’s values. I propose that it is the nature of a society’s institutions that determines whether it becomes a Zion or a Babylon society. Society’s institutions include churches, schools, clubs, businesses, governments, etc. If our institutions are organized and operate on Pride-based assumptions then we are a Babylon society. And, if they are founded on principles of Humility, then we are, or, are on our way to becoming, a Zion society. Society’s institutions work

like a pump, sucking in people from the society, conditioning them with either principles of Pride or Humility, and then pumping them back out into society to pass on those values to their offspring. Rinse and repeat. If you participate in a club, church, and business that all organize themselves and operate in a way that communicates Pride1 and Pride2*, those values will rub off on you over time. If the pumps continue operating over generations, the majority of the people become habituated in whichever set of principles their social institutions are based on. Conditioned as children, they grow up to raise their own children in the same environments, and as adults, they all participate daily in organizations saturated with either Pride or Humility. Eventually, virtually everyone adopts the principles of the society around them, resulting in either a Babylon or Zion society.

An example of a church instilling Pride2 is found in the Book of Mormon. The Zoramite religion had a rote prayer they would pray daily on top of a tower (remember the Rameumptom?). The prayer was an expression of Pride2: “Holy God, we believe that thou hast separated us from our brethren; and we do not believe in the tradition of our brethren, which was handed down to them by the childishness of their fathers; but we believe that thou hast elected us to be thy holy children....” (Alma 31:1518). The Zoramite religion was reinforcing Pride2, the idea that some are better than others, an idea which does not encourage Zion-like unity, but Babylon-like separation and conflict. So, if we want to “build Zion” we should start by taking a close look at our culture’s “pumps”. The Payson Temple had Angel * See: BuildingZion.org. Moroni added on October 10th. This officially unannounced © 2013 by Jesse Fisher event had about 4,000 saints and on-lookers gathered to watch as Moroni was placed. Angel Moroni represents the

Naming Patterns and Practices, Part I Ginny’s Genological Gems Ginny Ackerson

Naming patterns and practices can be both a detriment and a tremendous help in finding your ancestors. Used wisely, these clues can move you forward and help to complete your family tree. Many people hit a brick wall when they miss the clues afforded by family names. The primary error occurs when people pass up possibilities because the surname is not spelled the way the family currently spells it. Remember, a lot of records like the census returns were generated by nonfamily members and names were

spelled the way the record keeper heard them. There are records where the surname is spelled several different ways in the same document. Huff, Hough, Hoff and Huph are common variants of the same name just as Rodgers, Rogers and Rodjers can be interchangeable. Using a Soundex converter can help to determine how a surname can be spelled. A free one is available at http://resources. rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/ soundexconverter . Knowing common nicknames will also help in locating the by "Big Al" and "Farnsy"

correct family. For many years a friend of mine was stuck on a line where the only possible candidate had the wrong parent names, even though the birth date, place and one sibling was correct. The death record indicated the parent’s names were John and Martha, but the census record listed them as Jack and Patsy. Once she understood that these names were nick names for John and Martha, she able to trace her family back many more generations. A website for common nick names is at http://usgenweb.org/research/ nicknames.shtml Look carefully at the geographical area where the family lives. What is the ethnicity of the majority of the people? If the people are mostly Scandinavian, how would an Irish, Armenian or French name be recorded? What accents are prevalent? I have found Pauline recorded as Perline in the South and Barnet recorded as Bonnet in the New England states. Titles such as Junior, Senior, I, II, III can be misleading. Couples can name their sons after an older man in the family and the younger boy would be known as Junior, or have the title of II or III. My grandfather was Jesse James Boyd Junior but his father’s name was James William Boyd and his grandfather’s name was Jesse Boyd Senior. There is a man named Alvin Thomas Embrey III whose father’s name is George. Next month we will discuss patronymics and “dit” names in genealogical research.

Salem Family creates the Zombie Apocalypse Control Kit, with your help.

Photos submitted by: Heidi Carmack The People’s State Bank of American Fork in 1930 consisted of just one teller window in a small lobby, with several offices in the back of the building. Inset: Some of Bank of American Fork’s first loans were to sheep herders and farmers.

THE Z.A.C. GUN and upper right image is Becky and Zac Poulter the Hit Men and Woman behind the project.

Poulter Family of Salem

We’re not asking for a handout. We want you to be a part of the project! Take a look at the pictures and videos. If you think these guns are as awesome as we do, you can help bring them out of hiding and into production by purchasing one, two, or six :) of them and help us meet our factory minimums. If you like the project but don’t feel the need for a gun, there are other fun perks for being a supporter. Pulling Out the Big Guns. This whole project started because we love to play as a family, especially stuff that get us up and moving and away from electronics. So for Christmas a few years ago, we bought some Nerf guns. Our kids loved the concept, but the performance was so disappointing that we created our own guns. Our patent pending design increased the range, speed, and accuracy. Better yet, we got rid of all the springs, gears, and levers that complicate the gun and break easily. Our guns really “blew” away the competition! As we played with neighbors and friends, it only took a round or two for them to put down their gun and come

looking for any extras we had. We checked into mass production, but it was $15,000 just for the mold! That made it a little unrealistic for us to produce the guns for Christmas, birthday gifts, and neighborhood games. That’s where you come in. Get Fired Up! Like we said before, there are lots of fun ways to support the project. You can choose from buying the iTunes hit single “Shootin’ in the Dark,” to stickers, a t-shirt, or a Zombie Apocalypse Control Kit featuring the only gun really capable of making the head shot necessary to take out a Zombie. Zac Poulter. Owner of XAX deSIGN and constant creator in the Poulter household. Zac is responsible for the design and creation of the guns, as well as the dream to get them produced. Becky Poulter. The left brain half of the Zac and Becky team. Becky crunches the numbers, writes the copy, communicates with the backers, and keeps the rest of the team organized to make sure we deliver what we’ve promised. Risks and challenges Pulling the Trigger The biggest risk for us on the project was deciding to go for it and produce the mold! We knew we would have to come up with

funds for that before we could launch our campaign, and it was a little scary to make the first move. But we have had so much fun with the guns, we decided to jump in with both barrels. We secured a supplier who has a great working relationship with the factory that is building the mold and producing the guns. If needed, our supplier also has secondary sources. After the project funds, we’ll be having a giant fulfillment party, hiring our children to do menial labor which will help them with funds AND motivation for their future education ;). We also have a fulfillment company standing by in case we are not able to handle everything in a timely way from the home base. We promise not to leave you “Shooting in the Dark.” We’ll be communicating all along the way. We’ll tell you how production is coming and when we expect the shipment to arrive. We’ll also post pictures of our late night fulfillment parties, and comments from satisfied customers (that’s you!)

Bank of American Fork celebrates 100 years Bank of AF

Staff Submission From humble roots to state’s community-banking leader Farmer, doctor, pharmacist, merchant—a diverse group with many differences on the exterior, yet joined together to create a local bank that would serve the needs of American Fork’s citizens. The group’s venture was realized on February 5, 1913 when the People’s State Bank of American Fork was established. A century later, the financial institution—now known as Bank of American Fork—is Utah’s largest community bank. The first two decades brought success for the bank, as its reputation for being safe and sound was solidified. Customers put their trust in the bank’s founders, who were well respected men known for their integrity and work ethic. Challenges came in 1932, when the People’s State Bank of American Fork closed its doors to prevent a run on deposits. While a third of the nation’s

banks did the same and never reopened, the People’s State Bank was open for business nine months later after tremendous sacrifice on the part of its management. They and other shareholders raised substantial sums of money—some through mortgaging their own homes—to keep the institution afloat. The 1940s and ‘50s were better years for banking, and the People’s State Bank of American Fork thrived. In the 1960s, the bank proved itself a technological leader when it made a large investment in upgrading to advanced computerized systems. As processes became more efficient, the name of the bank was also formally abbreviated to Bank of American Fork, though the next decade saw its expansion outside of the town. The bank’s first branch opened in Alpine in 1974. Further expansion in the ‘90s increased the reach of the bank across Utah County and into Salt Lake County. Today, Bank of American Fork continues to grow. The bank’s Layton branch, opened in

November 2012, is its thirteenth and first in Davis County. Throughout its century-long existence, Bank of American Fork has experienced various economic cycles and financial climates. The bank successfully made it through the financial hurdles of the Depression and several other recessions since then, due in large part to the founding philosophy of serving as a steward of the community’s wealth. This philosophy continues to be practiced today and has resulted in a reputation for offering bigcity banking options with smalltown service. We look forward to renewing this commitment to customers and the community that will lead Bank of American Fork into another century of serving Utahns with exceptional care. Look for the history of the Spanish Fork branch in an upcoming issue!
