Utah Valley Woodcarvers create beauty By Mary Dame In 1992 my husband Gary and I were taking a oil painting class In Benjamin, Utah at the Hone’s studio once a week. The artist teaching the class had been given permission by the Hone’s to use the studio for this purpose. But there was much more there than I had expected. The owner, Keith Hone and his son Craig were Master Carvers. My love of art in the round came from going down there once a week to learn oil painting and to marvel at the beautiful carvings everywhere in the studio. My desire was so strong to learn to carve that when Keith and Craig said they were going to teach a class on carving a chickadee, I had to be in it. I had never carved before except for ruining a couple of bars of soap and hiding them from my Mom. My desire was so high that when Gary was away on business, I took a week off of work and
went to Benjamin. I have never stopped carving since. It is my joy and my peace. I now carve everything I can get my hands on and I have tried many different kinds of carvings from tiny little chip carving knives to big old chain saws. My love for birds has been the subject of many of my carvings, and I have taken classes all over the United States from Salisbury, Maryland, to Garabaldi, Oregon. I have been blessed with an overwhelming desire to help others learn this wonderful hobby. It started with me just taking classes, then more classes, then assisting my good friend Susan Hendrix in teaching classes here and there for our club. Then she talked me into helping her with the Woodcarving Show, and then to being in charge of the show. I have now been involved with the show and the club for nine years. I also help teach carving and painting at the Senior Citizens Center in Payson every Tuesday.

LIBERTY SHALL BE MAINTAINED Understanding Liberty By Josh Daniels Outlawing Boisterous Liberty: Lessons from Ferguson “The boisterous sea of liberty is never without a wave.” –Thomas Jefferson
I
n the wake of the “officer involved shooting” of an unarmed teenager in Ferguson Missouri we saw a number of disturbing things. On the one hand protests turned sour as unscrupulous individuals took advantage of the chaos by looting local businesses. On the other hand we saw disturbing uses of police power to disperse peaceful protesters and even credentialed journalists. Such police tactics included firing rubber bullets into crowds of unarmed protesters and the use of tear gas grenades. The takeaway of this and similar incidents is that it is a crime to “fail to comply” with the “lawful” orders of a police officer. This sort of legal arrangement gives to the police nearly unlimited discretion to create rules of conduct on the spot for which officers may then use force in order coerce compliance despite evidence of any other underlying criminal activity. This is frequently the case when citizens attempt to film the police. They are ordered to leave and often cited with disorderly conduct if they refuse. A local example includes the arrest of a Santaquin man in July who was attempting to fight a brush fire that threatened nearby homes until fire fighters arrived. Once the police officer arrived in advance of the fire department he ordered the man to stop and when the man refused, deciding instead that it was more important to continue dousing the fire, the officer arrested him for disorderly conduct and obstruction of justice. Public order statutes that first cre-
ated disorderly conduct offenses had their roots in 19th century laws aimed at breaking up street brawls over labor and immigration issues in industrial towns— hardly at pesky citizens exercising their first amendment rights. The disorder in many modern offenses is usually precipitated by police who bark commands at citizens otherwise acting lawfully. Citizen reluctance to comply with these demands then becomes the basis for a disorderly conduct arrest. The problem with this arrangement is it shifts the determination of allowed behavior from one of clear statute or ordinance to police officer discretion. While it is important for police to stop crime when possible, especially when protecting the rights of individuals, too frequently the definition of acceptable behavior has become subject to the whims of a police officer even when not substantively unlawful. As we reflect on the events in Ferguson and consider the many other interactions with law enforcement frequently posted in internet videos we need to remember that ours is a country of liberty—sometimes boisterous liberty. Police should not be given wide discretion to abridge the freedom of lawful citizens. We should be alarmed at the risk to critical constitutional liberties by the misapplication of disorderly conduct statutes and the broad use of police officer discretion. The boisterous waves of liberty are not a reason to extinguish the flames of freedom.

Working Women of WW II By Mabel W. Myrick American Rosie the Riveter Association is trying to locate women who worked on the home front during WWII. Thousands of women worked to support the war effort as riveters, welders, electricians, inspectors in plants, sewing clothing and parachutes for the military, ordnance workers, rolling bandages, clerical, farming, and many other jobs such as volunteer workers collecting scrap metals and other critical materials. These women have stories of their WW II experiences that are of historical value and perhaps have never been told. American Rosie the Riveter Association would like to acknowledge these women with a certificate and have their stories placed in our Archives.
American Rosie the Riveter Association is a patriotic/non-profit organization whose purpose is to recognize and preserve the history and legacy of working women during WWII. This organization was founded in 1998 by Dr. Frances Carter, Birmingham, Alabama and now has over 4800 members nationwide. Current elected officers from Oregon, Maryland, Georgia and Alabama, all serve on a volunteer basis. If you are a woman (or descendant of a woman) who worked during WWII, or if you are just interested in more information, please call number (888) 557-6743 or e-mail americanrosietheriveter2@yahoo.com. We can also be contacted at American Rosie the Riveter, P.O. Box 188, Kimberly, Al. 35091.

Keith Davis at Auw, Germany just before Dec. 16, 1944 and just outside C.P. Bulge started over this ridge.
Battle of the Bulge as told by Springville Resident By F. Keith Davis
16th Field Artillery Observation Battalion Battery “Aâ€?, 3rd Army, 8th Corps I was in the 16th Field Artillery Observation Battalion, Battery “Aâ€?. We were the eyes and the ears of the Field Artillery. We fought our way from Utah Beach to the border of Belgium and Germany at a place named AUW, Germany. Not a town, just a place we were in the winter. Our area was considered a light ďŹ ghting area. The heavy ďŹ ghting was North of us at Cologne, Germany and south of us in southern France. We were ďŹ red on by German Artillery, German infantry was very close. The Germans ďŹ red Buzz Bombs over us frequently. A Buzz Bomb in an unmanned airplane that ew very low and is ďŹ lled with ammable liquied and shrapnel. We could hear the motor as it ew over us and when the motor stopped, we knew it would crash in seconds. We had three land close to us, but no one was injured. Buzz Bombs killed and injured many Americans. We were in the Hurtzgen Foest in the Sniffel Mountains. The snow was deep, the ground was frozen and we didn’t have winter clothes. On Dec. 16, 1944 Nazi General Von Runsted made a break through on a ďŹ fty mile ront. He came through with the 5th and 6th Panzer army, and the 7th German Army. He had brand new “KINGâ€? Tiger Tanks, new heavy artillery and thousands of infantry, most dressed in white camoage. Auw, Germany is in the center of this onslaught. We lost much equipment and pulled back to St. Vith, Belgium. We were overpowered there and retreated back to Bastogne. At Bostogne, the Germans had us surrounded. Many of the American solders were killed, wounded, or went insane from the constant bombarding. When the Battle of the Bulge started, it was cloudy and very foggy. We could hear tank treads coming toward us, but
could not tell if it was a Nazi Tiger tank or an American Sherman tank. General George Patton ordered the 101st, and 82nd Airborne up the Bastogne to help. However, they could not jump from the planes because of the fog. They were brought up by 6x6 Army trucks and it took them two days to reach us. A Paratrooper asked me where the front line was and I told him he was stainding on it. Somehow our 16th FA OBsn “Aâ€? battery escaped Bastogne encirclement. Three of us from a Sound OP came upon a Belgium farm house in the midddle of the battleďŹ eld. We went inside and there was a Father, Mother, and two children, a boy and girl about seven or eight years old. The mother gave us some soup and black bread and we gave them som candy. This was Christmas Eve. We sang Christmas songs: Jingle Bells & Silent Night. The words were different but the music was the same. We were wet and cold, but we dried off that night. We could hear machine guns rattle and artillery shells bursting all night. We didn’t get much sleep, but we got warm and dry. We left the next morning and the family didn’t want to see us go. We found some of our outďŹ t. The 16th was badly shot up and the 285th FA Obsn BN in the same area was badly shot up. The two Observation Battalions decided to form one unit, so they could be more effective in the war. This did not happen. The Nazi SS Troops captured a Battery of the 285th FA and herded them into an open snowy ďŹ eld and machine gunned them down in cold blood. This was not war, this was murder. This is known as the Malmedy Massacre. The clouds and fog started to break up and the Air Force ew thousands of Sorties over the area. They bombed tank positions, Artillery positions, machine

The painting “Christ Consoling the Widow” by Ryan Brown has recently been submitted to the Temple Art Committee.
“Christ Consoling the Widow” Ryan S. Brown is a leading representational artist living and working in Springville, Utah. Ryan trained in the classical traditions of drawing and painting in Florence, Italy at the Florence Academy of Art where he graduated in 2008 winning the prestigious Painting of the Year award. Ryan has established himself as one of the leading masters of portrait and figure work, as well as landscape painting. Ryan is the Founder and Director of the Center for Academic Study & Naturalist Painting (CAS), which is also located in Springville, Utah at 43 East and 200 South. The CAS is a traditional art academy that is widely considered one of the top 5 professional art schools in the world. Recently Ryan completed a monumental religious painting entitled “Christ Consoling the Widow”. This piece is five feet tall by five feet in length that took the artist a total of 8 months to complete. In the painting, a recently widowed
woman sits with her three children in a roman garden. The painting captures the moment that Christ approaches the woman in a gesture of consolation transforming her mood from one of sorrow and desperation, to a feeling of faith inspired hope. The children, yet unaware of Christ’s presence, remain consumed by their grief. There is a rare power in the expression of the hope captured in the woman’s expression. The interaction between Christ and the woman inspires a similar feeling of hope in the viewer, and allows the viewer to experience a more tangible sense of Christ. The mastery of this work is likely to set a new standard for LDS art. The portrait of Christ allows the viewer to experience the character or Christ in a way that is far more personal than they are likely to have experienced before. This work has been submitted to the Temple Art Committee and may soon hang in either the Payson or Provo City Center Temple.

my life. We have a wonderful club, the Utah Valley Woodcarvers, that meets every 2nd Thursday of the month at Treeline, in Provo. Treeline is a place that I call a “carvers paradise” because they have everything a person could want for carving, from knives and chisels to power carving tools and books. We also meet from 1:00 to 4:00 in what we call “open carving” on Thursdays, again at Treeline, where we teach others how to carve, and help others to have the same addiction we have. We are planning yet again another wonderful Carving Show this year in Spanish Fork at the Veterans Memorial Building on 400 North and Main Street, on October 10th and 11th. I am Show Chairman again this year and we have some great things planned including a drawing for a rocking horse frog. Bob Dailey, one of our carvers, made it and I painted it. Our friend Leah Goddard is coming from Florida, to sell her rough outs and teach us how to carve soft looking realistic animal hair. She was here last year also and everyone loved her and asked that she come back. We will have some Chain Saw carvers coming that Jim Valentine, our own Chain saw artist, is rounding up and Jeff Wolfe, a local artist, is coming to show us how he creates in clay the beautiful sculptures he does. We also have Treeline setting up tables to sell us carving “stuff ” and Dale Taylor setting a table to sell us safety gear for that carving “stuff.” It is a juried Show and we usually have 150 to 200 beautiful carvings entered.

From the movie poster for “16 Stones” a faith based movie produced by Utah County residents.
Candlelight Media Group announces “16 Stones” movie release 16 Stones, will be released in theaters in Utah and neighboring states opening on Wednesday, October 1st. The movie tells the fictional story of a young man in the late 1830’s who sees first-hand the destruction and loss the Latter-day Saints suffer after a mob attack in Far West, Missouri. Hoping to save others from future persecution, he and two friends set out to produce proof of the truthfulness of The Book of Mormon by finding an unimpeachable artifact – the 16 Jaredite stones touched by the finger of the Lord as recounted in the Book of Ether. The movie, directed by Brian Brough (Nowhere Safe, Scents and Sensibility, Christmas Angel) and written by Brittany Wiscombe (Christmas Angel, Changing Hearts), shows the adventures and challenges the trio faces in their search. Wiscombe commented, “With every setback comes a blessing and a building up of their faith—if the characters are willing to see it.” The project began development in 2008 and was set in
the modern day. Over the years Brough and Wiscombe kept coming back to the project. “We kept trying to find the right balance of bringing in adventure but also maintaining respect for the subject matter,” Brough said. The story underwent several revisions until Brough suggested the 1830s setting might fit better. “The tone of 16 Stones now supports the feel of faith we wanted it to have.” For more info go to 16stonesmovie. com of find 16 Stones on Facebook.

Happy 100th Birthday Christine Grover By Bill Charles On Wednesday, September 17, Christine Grover of Springville will celebrate her 100th Birthday. Her family will honor her at an Open House on September 6, from 3 - 5 p.m. in the Springville Spring Creek South Stake Center (355 N. 400 E.) Christine was the ninth child born to James and Frances Donaldson in Hachita, New Mexico. She has seven brothers and two sisters. Her mother died when she was just six years old. The year after her baptism into the LDS church, her 19 year old sister took Christine and her 3 year old sister to Utah to live with an Uncle and Aunt for 10 years. Her father thought the three girls would have more advantages in Utah. He remained in New Mexico with her brothers. Christine, at age 19, moved to Westwood, California to live with a sister and her family. Her sister and family moved to Marysville but Christine remained in an apartment in Westwood. She soon met Calvin Grover who came to California from Idaho. At the age of 22 they were married March 5, 1937 in the Salt Lake City LDS Temple. The first of their seven children was born in April, 1938. She bore five daughters and two sons, the last child was born in June, 1959. They remained in California until 1962 when they moved to Springville. They rented a house while Calvin started building a home for them. They moved into their new home in 1963 in which Christine still resides. Immediately upon arrival in their new home in 1963, Calvin and Christine became members of an adult married church group that met regularly to study and learn from books and speakers. It eventually became a social group that meets monthly to have dinner and enjoyment. She still attends. Christine and Calvin enjoyed dancing. They both sang in ward choirs. She took piano lessons soon after they were mar-
ried. She accompanied Calvin when he was invited to sing solos. They served a senior couple mission in the San Antonio Texas Mission during 1978-80. Calvin passed away on July 12, 1993. Their oldest child passed away in 2006. Soon after Calvin passed away, Christine started taking organ lessons which lasted for 10 years, well into her 80’s. She has both a piano and an organ in her home. Christine is currently a visiting teacher to three women, and the chorister in Relief Society. She is also the chair person of another social group. She has served, in California or Utah, as Relief Society president, counselor and pianist; Primary teacher and chorister; and young women teacher. Christine still cooks, scrubs and waxes her kitchen floor, and weeds around her roses. Family or friends help with other needs. She has always loved music, reading and gardening. Due to weak eyes, she has a machine which magnifies everything so she can read and memorize the music, plus read lessons, magazines, mail, etc. Christine has been blessed, not only with seven children, but also with 34 grandchildren, 58 great-grandchildren, and 4 great-great-grandchildren. With a family that size she is grateful she can attend all the many family events. Christine loves to receive visits by everyone, especially by family members, Church Priesthood home teachers and Relief Society visiting teachers. She is thankful for family who often take her to lunch or dinner and take her shopping and to church. A ward member drives her home each Sunday. Also thanks to those friends and family who transport her to social events, funerals, wedding receptions, etc. She is always early to church on Sunday. She is fun to be with. She gets exercise by walking around her block in the mornings. She is an example of faith, love, hard work, service, dedication and endurance. Happy Birthday Christine!

According to her records, kept for the county, she was instrumental in bringing hundreds of babies into the world. Mary Ursula Staheli Oberhansli was born March 7, 1847 to Barbara Heid and George Staheli in Amirsveli, Switzerland. In 1860 the Staheli family was converted to the Mormon Church, and decided to join the Saints in Utah. At a great sacrifice, they were able to start their journey. In May 1862 fifty-five people crowded into a small sailing ship. It was nine weeks before they reached New York. Then by train to St. Joseph, a river boat to Florence, Nebraska, to mingle with hundreds of converts getting ready to cross the plains. On July 19, 1862, a wagon train supervised by Captain William Lane, started the long trek. They arrived in the Salt Lake Valley on the first week in October. After one night they were asked to go on to Manti, where they lived for five year. In 1867 they moved to Payson. In 1869, Mary married Ferdinand Oberhansli, a young Swiss convert.

Thoughts on Zion By Jesse Fisher
Building Zion From Day One
I
n recent articles here, we’ve seen how building Zion was a central doctrine of the LDS Church. Actually, the early Saints were actively building a Zion society here in Utah from the very start, and not just spiritually. LDS historian Leonard J. Arrington reported how the advance company set the pattern of central planning and united labor for the entire colonization of the West by the Mormons at their first camp meeting held in the Salt Lake Valley in July 1847. “Leaders and followers reached a consensus that they would not ‘scatter’ their labors—that they would combine and concentrate their efforts and work cooperatively—that a Kingdom built in any other way was a fraud....” So, they broke up into teams and got to work cooperatively providing the group with food, land, homes, protection, and building materials. One group plowed and planted 35 acres of land with garden vegetables and grains. Another group tried their hand at hunting and fishing, which did not go so well. Another committee produced an abundant supply of salt from the lake. One group laid out the grid system of streets and home lots for Salt Lake City. A large group of 92 people were assigned to build a fort and temporary log cabins inside. They built 29 log houses, sixteen feet long by fourteen feet wide. The timber commit-
tee located trees in a nearby canyon, constructed a road, and extracted logs used for the cabins. This unity of purpose and labor characterized the next 40 years as modern Israel labored to carve out an ideal society in the wilderness. During this time, the Church leaders “uncompromisingly held to self-sufficiency as the official policy” of the Church–they were determined that the Saints as a people would work together to become economically independent of Babylon. That drive for an economically independent Zion society led to the Church to establish the Perpetual Immigration Company, The Public Works Department, numerous industrial development “missions”, railroad companies, cooperative merchandising institutions, and finally, United Orders in every stake. Even after the rapid and widespread failure of the Church’s second attempt to implement United Orders, and, after the death of Brigham Young, enormous efforts were made under President John Taylor through the instrumentality of his Zions Central Boards of Trade. For four decades the central focus of the LDS Church was to build a Zion society to prepare for Christ’s return. Discuss this article at BuildingZion. org. © 2014 by Jesse Fisher.

Center Serving 2,000 Abused Children Annually Needs Sponsors Imagine being a child who has suffered some type of abuse, possibly from someone you know or care about. Life can be extremely confusing and painful to an abused child. Now imagine adding to that burden the anxiety and turmoil associated with being the center of a criminal case involving your abuser. Children in Utah County do not need to feel alone as they face the medical, legal, psychological and social issues surrounding their abuse. Thanks to generous private donations, various grants, and an appropriation by the Utah State Legislature, The Utah County Children’s Justice Center in Provo helps abused children through the overwhelming chaos, fear and complex emotions that accompany child abuse. The center is a public/private partnership focused on providing a child friendly, home-like physical facility to support the investigation of child abuse. The center utilizes a multi-disciplinary investigation team to coordinate the interview process and assess the needs of the child and family for support services. Walking into the center is like walking into an informal “family room” with toys and books for children. Adding to that warmth is a kitchen with snacks and drinks for children. Along with the home-like surroundings, however, are more business-like rooms dedicated to the facility’s purpose. There are interview rooms with audio and video recording capacity, a medical examination room, and various conference rooms and training rooms. The center offers referrals to treatment and support groups for adults who were molested as children. They also provide professional training, seminars and conferences on child abuse, investigation, and intervention issues. The community can access the center’s expertise in child abuse and family violence issues by requesting community education. Unfortunately, the center sees a steady stream of abused children enter through its doors. Approximately 2,000 Utah County children and their families are served by the center each year. The
amount of operational funding appropriated from taxes for investigative services is minimal, and the center relies heavily on local citizens and businesses to provide funds for the facility and on-going treatment. A non-profit group was established to support the center and its programs. With no paid employees, Friends of the Children’s Justice Center is a tax-exempt organization (501-c-3) with a “wish list” of needed funds, services and materials. Funding is needed for a variety of items including building and grounds repair, laptop and desktop computers, office equipment, printing of booklets and brochures, and to pay for professional services. Needed donations of service include grounds maintenance, child mentors, carpet cleaning, window cleaning, and general cleaning. Donated materials could include high quality copy paper, toilet paper, bottled drinks and snacks, diapers and wipes, etc. Friends of the Children’s Justice Center will host their annual “Doll House Festival, Dinner Dance, Boutique and Children’s Tea” fund-raiser and awareness event at the Provo Marriott Hotel & Conference Center, October 16-18. The group is looking for a limited number of corporate sponsors and all proceeds benefit the Utah County Children’s Justice Center. Sponsors will be recognized during the event and on advertising materials. The festival will kick off with a fund-raising masquerade ball, dinner and silent auction on Thursday, October 16th. Tickets are $100 each. The public is welcome to purchase items at the boutique on October 17-18 (no tickets necessary). All proceeds from boutique sales will benefit the Children’s Justice Center. And finally a “Mad Hatter Tea Party” for children will conclude the event on October 18th. Tickets are $10 per child. Contact Kathy Curtis at 801-372-3707 for ticket sales over the phone. For other donations, online ticket purchases, or more information about the event go to the website at CJCFriends.com.

I’d like to acknowledge the vision of past superintendents and board members, but especially thank those who passed a bond in 2009 that allowed us to build this $25 million school. We applaud you,” Superintendent Nielsen said. “The shell is constructed and now the soul, the students, will enter the shell and make it a school.” The crowd was thrilled to listen to a Springville Junior High small ensemble orchestra perform “Joust” by Richard Meyer and directed by Samuel Tsugawa. Shannon Acor, a Nebo School Board member representing Springville, spoke to the crowd about this memorable event. “Through the years this once vacant piece of land was transformed into many things reflecting our children’s imagination. But today it has been transformed into the best thing of all -- a beautiful
building of education and learning where students, teachers, families, friends and neighbors come together to help our children’s dreams come true,” Mrs. Acor said. School Board President, Rick Ainge, directed the official ribbon cutting that included students and dignitaries from Nebo School District and Springville City. Parents and students were then welcomed into the Springville Junior High. The school is located at 189 S. 1470 E., Springville. It sits on a 24 acre site with 166,680 square feet of floor space with 51 teaching stations, 4 computer labs, 2 full gymnasiums, and a cafetorium with a stage. Nebo School District welcomes all students to the new Springville Junior High under the direction of Principal Ken Van Ausdal, Assistant Principal Rhet Rowley, Dean of Students Tiffanie Miley, and with amazing teachers and staff.
The Abundance™ Game Coming to Spanish Fork On September 16th, Networking Nights will sponsor “The Abundance™ Game” facilitated by financial guru Chris Miles, founder of “Money Ripples.” Designed as a successor to the game “Cashflow®,” the game focuses on the mental, spiritual and character aspects of wealth. Having facilitated the game on many occasions, Chris Miles said, “This game teaches principles in just a few short hours that could take months or years to learn, and it is interactive so you learn much better than you would by listening to a lecture. The game opens your mind to new possibilities for creating real wealth while serving others.” According to the game’s creator, Brandon Broadwater: “It allows you to practice getting rich both spiritually and financially so that you can have a greater capacity to go out and do it in real life.” The Abundance™ Game teaches: How your spiritual well-being and
character are directly related to making you rich. How the rich use creativity to make their money. How “good investments” are determined more by your mind than by the deal itself. How you can discover opportunity in your life that has been there all along. Business owners or others wanting more abundance are welcome to attend this special meeting of Networking Nights, a group of growth-minded business leaders, to play The Abundance™ Game. Refreshments will be served from 6:15 to 6:30. The game will begin promptly at 6:30 and conclude at 9:00 PM on Tuesday, September 16th at the Spanish Fork Macey’s Grocery Store’s “Little Theater.” Space is limited, and RSVP is requested by emailing Laraine Chamberlain at Laraine@ChamberlainLeadership.com

Recycling in Spanish Fork Spanish Fork City is about to change its recycling program to an opt-out recycling program with a phased roll-out beginning mid-September. This change will add many new subscribers because it lowers the price and because they may not know about the change. We would like to reduce, as much as possible, the number of people that don’t know about the recycling change. To that end, we are writing about this often on Facebook and Twitter and we have had an article in each month’s newsletter for the past several months.
We have also presented at a few specific locations where we felt we could get an interested group together. We think the Chamber may be one such group. We would like to present to chamber members in an effort to reach out and explain the new program, the reasons for the change and its impacts on businesses and residents. Many of the business members currently use only the black garbage cans and these businesses will be in line to receive a blue recycle bin too.

ou know that moment when you are trying to decide where to eat and your mind suddenly goes completely blank? It seems like every week this happens to me. You have your favorite places where you are a regular, but sometimes you want to try something new. And let’s be honest. It can be a little intimidating to try a completely new place. You don’t know if the food will be epic or mediocre. Even if you are brave enough to try a new place, you aren’t sure what to order. Going new places can be amazing, if you make the right choice. Every place has dishes that are LIFE CHANGING good. I am talking about the kind of dishes you are willing to drive 45 minutes in rush hour traffic in the heat of the summer when you are 8 months pregnant, kind of good (Oh Mei Vietnamese sandwich #8). My goal is to help ease the worries of eating somewhere new and help you find some new places to add to your eating out options. Now, a little bit about me. I grew up in California’s San Joaquin Valley (think agricultural goldmine) eating fresh strawberries from roadside stands, tritip sandwiches at the Clovis Farmer’s Market, and Foster’s Freeze ice cream cones (dipped in chocolate, of course). I moved to North Ogden, Utah when I was 11 and learned to love Brigham City peaches at Nielson’s fruit stand, Country Boy Ice Cream (no longer in business), and Training Table hamburgers. After graduating from high school, I went to BYU-Idaho where I met my husband, Nick, at the cafeteria. We ended up sitting across from each other and talking over spaghetti, Snicker’s salad, and chocolate milk. Fast forward and here we are living in Spanish Fork with our two little girls. My husband and I love eating out. Our favorite thing to do is find hole-in-thewall places that look questionable but have out-of-this-world food. Think “Diners, Drive Ins, and Dives.” Like Lonestar Taqueria in Salt Lake City. I would

NEVER have imagined that a run-down taco shop in Salt Lake City would have the best fish tacos I have ever eaten. We love going on road trips and looking up Yelp reviews to find hidden gems. It is an adventure to drive through a city, not knowing where you will end up. Some culinary highlights of my life are eating steak frites at a street café in Paris, eating fish and chips in Stratford on Avon (WITH MASHED PEAS), eating salmon on a boat ride to Victoria B.C., and eating cheesecake in NYC. Some of my Utah favorites are Lemon Raspberry Pie at Ruth Ann’s Diner in SLC, chocolate cake at Magelby’s, top sirloin at Tucano’s, and Chicken Bryan at Carraba’s. I am delighted to be the newest writer for Delectable Dining! Honestly, it has always been my dream to write food reviews. I hope that together we can explore Utah County’s culinary expanse and find some new favorites.

Springville Mayor Clyde participated in the Ice Bucket Challenge on Friday, August 22 outside the Springville Civic Center.
Mayor Clyde accepts #IBC By Andrea Staheli Springville Mayor Wilford Clyde responded big to the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge at the Springville Civic Center on August 22nd. Staying true to his motto to ‘Give a Full Measure’, Mayor Clyde recruited his friends at Clyde Companies and the Springville City Fire Department to fill a W.W. Clyde & Co loader full of ice-water for the event – and you’d better believe it made a big splash. Twice. After a slight miss on the first dump, Mayor Clyde had the bucket refilled and 15 people, including city officials, administrators and Springville residents joined him in the challenge. “It’s a great reason to get wet,” Clyde said. “I have good friends who have been impacted personally by ALS and this is a
neat opportunity to get the community involved.” While completing the challenge, the Mayor extended a promise that Clyde Companies would donate $100 per person to alsa.org for those he challenged who completed the challenge by Monday August 25th, as well as those 15 who joined him that day. The Mayor called out the city council, directors of city departments, city administration, the senior leadership team of Clyde Companies and his sonsin-law and three oldest grandsons to complete the challenge. See the Mayor take the plunge, here: http://on.fb.me/1C78bxA As of August 28th, more than 94 million dollars have been donated to ALSA.org.

ALS, Serve Daily and the #IceBucketChallenge By Melissa Prins I want you to use your imagination for just a moment today. Imagine noticing a few subtle changes in your speech, then in a short period of time you suddenly become more clumsy, tripping over your own feet, knocking over a cup of water at lunch. You love your daily work outs but you start to notice that your right side is a bit weaker than before. Your wife or husband urges you to go to the doctor. After a battery of tests a neurologist meets with you and tells you that you have Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis.

ALS is a fatal neurological disease where the nerves that send impulses from your brain and spinal cord to your muscles that are used for speaking, swallowing, moving your arms, legs and diaphragm stop functioning. The neurologist tells you that within 2-5 years you will become fully paralyzed and succumb to the disease. One in every 50,000 people will be diagnosed with ALS. It’s a vicious disease that steals your body piece by piece, it strips you of nearly all bodily functions, yet leaves your mind completely intact and there is no cure. Yet. In July of this year the #IceBucketChallenge went viral. People from all over the United States were challenging friends and family to either dump a bucket of ice water over their heads or donate to help raise awareness and funds find a cure for ALS.

Washington School was built in 1892 and torn down in 1937. Building materials were salvaged and used in the construction of the High School Gymnasium in 1938.
Springville High School history By M. Lee Taylor Part 1 of 2 The history of the Springville High School is oft clouded in mystery, and somewhat vague even in local history. Prior to the 20th Century, schooling typically ended after the 8th grade, the students having received what was then referred to as a “Normal Education”. The early history of Utah tells us that it was deemed more important for young people to be helping out on the farms, than to be spending time in the pursuit of a higher education. The educational needs of Springville students were initially met by local families in their own homes. Within a year of the founding of Springville, citizens constructed an adobe school building within the walls of the original log fort. In 1856 the community came together in constructing “the Big School House” (Center and Main), and later became known as the “White Meeting House”. As other religious groups grew in strength in the Beehive State, some were quick to establish their own education systems. The Presbyterian Church was at the forefront, and in 1875 they taught the first recognized “High School” classes in the state of Utah at their boarding school, Wasatch Academy in Mt. Pleasant. In 1880 the Presbyterian community built a small, combination church and school building in Springville, near the N. W. corner of Main and Center Streets. In about 1887 the little building was sold to the Dinwoody Furniture Company of Salt Lake City, and they in turn operated a furniture store there for some years. When the store manager retired from the business, the store was closed, and the local school board purchased the building and opened it as a public school, calling it The Dinwoody School. Local residents did not care for that name, so the name
was changed to the Park school, in honor of the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, Dr. John R. Park. In 1886 the Presbyterian Church built another school in Springville, which they called the Hungerford Academy, named after an eastern benefactor. They erected a substantial, two story brick building on the South East corner of 200 East 200 South, even before they built their beautiful church building just to the South of it in 1892. As this was once again a boarding school, separate dormitories were constructed for both the boys and the girls. As the Hungerford Academy was filling the needs of higher education locally, it was determined that “high school” classes should be taught in a local school, in order to match the efforts of the Presbyterian community. According to the book “History of Springville” which was written by Don Carlos Johnson and published in 1900, a reference from the winter of 1862/63 states that “A high school was taught this winter in the Big school house----”. This reference is undoubtedly meant to convey that classes beyond the 8th grade were being taught, which would signify classes of a high school curriculum. Years later, in 1894 the school trustees purchased a piece of ground west of the Central School, from the Elders Quorum, where they erected a substantial brick building of 40 feet X 60 feet and it was called “The Seventy’s Hall”. This building was used for the purpose of high school class instruction, as well as being fitted up for the teaching of classes in industrial arts. Additional classes were also held on the uppermost level of the Central School, an area which became known as “the attic”. Thank you for reading part 1 of 2. Come back next month to finish the story.

Achiever Preschool celebrates 30 years of education Achiever Preschool was established in 1984 by Beverly Anderson. She was a former teacher at Challenger Schools and decided to start a quality preschool in Spanish Fork. She hired Linda Bartholomew to work with her. Linda has a degree from BYU in Child Development. During the next three years, two more teachers joined the team. In 1987, Beverly decided that the commute she was making from Salt Lake was too difficult and started two new preschools in the Salt Lake area. At that time, Linda and Julie Ward became partners and were able to find a new location for Achiever Preschool. The preschool has been at 1200 East Canyon Road for the last 27 years. Achiever Preschool is a very academic preschool with the goal of kindergarten readiness. They teach colors, shapes, numbers, letters, phonics, opposites, rhymes and many other concepts. They work on prewriting skills, writing their names correctly and writing numbers and letters. Each month a science or social studies unit is taught. Music, dance, drama and art also play an important part of the learning experience. Many concepts are taught with music, since music is one of the ways that helps our brains process
information. One other important aspect of a preschool education is that children learn to follow directions, develop good listening skills, and learn to interact in social situations. This gives them an advantage as they move into kindergarten. After renting the building from the home’s previous owners, Linda was able to purchase the property 10 years ago. The preschool is in a building behind Linda’s house with a self-contained playground. Field trips are scheduled a few times during the year to give children opportunities for more hands-on learning. They have enjoyed watching their students over the years as they grow and accomplish many things. Students have been Sterling Scholars, local royalty, received college scholarships and succeeded in many areas of life. They still think of them all as “their kids” and watch their achievements with great pride. Many former students are now bringing their children to Achiever Preschool, which is a lot of fun. A quality preschool education can help children in their future education. Give Linda and Julie a call at (801) 7988102.

etworking Nights business leaders met on August 19th to discuss “Needs & Leads.” Since implementing the “Needs & Leads” format a few short months ago, many businesses have benefited. The meeting on August 19th highlighted the difference between generic “business advice” and real, practical “business mentoring” when one of the members came with the need for some funding advice and left with names and phone numbers of people who could help. “One thing we’ve noticed about these ‘Needs & Leads’ sessions,” said founder Laraine Chamberlain, “is that people often come away with solid ‘next steps’ to overcome their particular challenges – and often the key to moving forward is a simple introduction to a particular person or service. Our Networking Nights members pull out their contact lists and share important relationships they’ve already developed. I am amazed by the depth and quality of our members’ contacts.” The group now meets the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays of each month at the Spanish Fork Macey’s Grocery Store “little theater” from 6:30 to 8:00 pm.

Local Dentist Does Dental Work on Grizzly Bear By Kelli Hicken Think your dental visit is a big hairy deal? After fracturing an upper canine tooth, called a carnassial tooth, this grizzly bear star has a new smile. Dr. Clark Hicken DDS, owner of Main Plaza Dental from Spanish Fork, traveled to All West Veterinary Hospital in Bozeman, Montana to perform a root canal and restore the broken tooth. Dr. Dan Butterfield was in charge of keeping the 885 pound grizzly under anesthesia during the procedure.
Adam, an 8 year old grizzly bear, has had appearances in many commercial and film industry projects. In addition to being featured in many wildlife photographs. He was raised from a cub and works with his trainer Troy Hyde, from Animals of Montana. The veterinary team was faced with a few challenges while operating on the large grizzly bear. Adult bears cannot be anesthetized for more than two to three hours, meaning that the entire procedure needed to be competed in that period of time. Since extracting such a large tooth is difficult and the bear needs the carnassial tooth to be able to bite, a root canal was performed, post placed, and a tooth restored to function in a single visit. In addition, as a highly photographed bear, esthetics is also important. “Anesthesia is very stressful for large animals. This was unavoidable for the root canal treatment, but we did not want to put Adam though it a second time to fit the crown,” says Dr. Hicken, who lead the operation. Adam recovered from the operation quickly without any complications and is now

Dr. Hicken performing a root canal on a bear, in Montana. The length of the tooth is four inches with 1.5 inches visible.
back to his old self. Dr. Clark Hicken said the dental process was not so different from a human condition, just on a large scale. This canine tooth in a large adult grizzly bear is four inches in length with only one and a half inches being exposed. He had several instruments custom made for the procedure and even took along his Cerec crown milling machine that fabricates same day crowns. The tooth also had to be custom colored to match the golden shades of Adam’s other teeth. After treatment was successfully completed, all those involved were clearly relieved. “It was a fascinating procedure and I am thrilled with the outcome,” grinned Dr. Hicken.

Ken’s Master Auto review
By Debbie Balzotti
My husband and I moved from Michigan to Utah in 2010. There are a lot of things that you think about when you are preparing for a move across country; buying a home, schools, finding a doctor. But one thing we didn’t think about until we were forced to, was finding an auto mechanic. We had a minivan and it needed brakes and a few other things. We called around and got prices, but most were through the roof. Just in passing we happened to mention our predicament to a neighbor who referred us to Ken Fosmore at Ken’s Master Auto. At the time, Ken was working out of a shop in his home. Not only was Ken affordable, but he was honest and straight
Review of “Waking in Tombstone” by Springville author Marilyn Brown
B
uying a book by a local author is a great way to support the “shop local” movement. You can buy it online and keep Amazon in business, or contact the author through their website to keep it all local. Either way, you are supporting creativity in your own community. Springville’s Marilyn Brown is an award-winning author and poet with a new book just released by Utah publisher Walnut Springs Press. “Waking in Tombstone” is a novel set in Tombstone, Arizona in the good ol’ days where women wore petticoats and men had shoot-outs on Main Street. Brown wrote, “Stories are exciting because we can enter into the mind and hearts of other people, living ‘lives’ in other times and places, experiencing conversations, feelings, glances etc., that connect us more intimately with the past than dry historical facts can do.” Brown creates the setting for “Waking in Tombstone” so realistically you can taste the dust as Libby Campbell arrives on the stagecoach. Libby has escaped an abusive employer and headed west with a few gold coins to start a new life after the death of her mother. On the way to Tombstone, Libby hears about the Earps and Doc Holliday as her travelling companion reads an article from the newspaper with the headline: “Shoot-out at the OK Corral: Three People Killed”. She is arriving just a few weeks after the famous gunfight on Oc-
forward. He gave us options to choose from to fit our budget letting us know what needed to be done immediately and what could wait a bit longer. This kind of personalized service is hard to come by these days. Now four years later we wouldn’t dream of taking our vehicles anywhere else. Ken and his whole staff are all so knowledgeable and friendly. If you don’t understand what needs to be done, he takes the time to explain it. Now, even my parents take their car to Ken and whenever I overhear someone say they need car work done, I tell them about Ken’s Master Auto in Salem - Melissa Prins

tober 26, 1881. Libby falls in love with the preacher Cotter who the author explains is based on a real person named Endicott Peabody, “Friends called him ‘Cotter’ but I changed his name, because everything can’t be true in a novel.”’ Cotter and Libby are joined in the novel by a cast of characters straight out of the old TV western “Gunsmoke.” There are kindly bar keepers, brooding gunslingers, mysterious strangers ,and of course those generous girls at the brothel. I shared the book with my sister-inlaw who is chair-bound with a broken ankle and she polished it off in a day. “I liked Libby,” she said. “She was spunky and able to use her wits to change her situation. She didn’t let her past or her current circumstances dictate what she could accomplish or become.”

New LDS “Legacy” chapel in Mapleton By Chris Hash Editor: Mapleton News Large crowds toured Mapleton’s new LDS “Legacy” chapel on Friday, August 8. The new building will serve the 2nd, 7th, and 23rd wards of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Meetings held in the Legacy building began Sunday, August 10. “We’re excited to start meeting in this beautiful new building,” said Gordon Harkness, Elders’ Quorum President in the Mapleton 7th ward. “Ground was broken on June 1, 2013, and construction proceeded smoothly,” says President David Jones of the Mapleton North Stake. “This building is very efficiently built.” Various displays were set up throughout the building, highlighting the work of auxiliaries and groups within an LDS ward, such as the Primary, Relief Society, Young Womens, Young Mens, Scouts, and Family History. The Legacy building has many modern features, some readily apparent and some not.
The chapel is spacious, wider and not as deep, with the benches on the side being slanted. The sacrament preparation is located to the side instead of the front, as in older buildings. The hallways are also wider, with no breezeways. Rooms throughout the building have motion sensors which turn lights on and off automatically. All of the electronics for the building can be managed from a central control center. The stage at the back of the cultural hall has a lift to improve handicap access. Many other small features have been incorporated to improve the building’s functionality. For example, classroom doors swing into the classrooms, not the hall, so they don’t impeded traffic flow. Bishops’ offices are set off in an area off the hallway, again improving traffic flow and adding a measure of privacy. “I think the Lord is really pleased with how this building has turned out,” added Todd Miller, Counselor in the Mapleton North Stake Presidency. “There’s just a really sweet spirit here,” President Jones concluded. “This is a modern design for the growing LDS church in this area.”
