Local Sculptor Gary Lee Price provides update on Statue of Responsibility

By Leesa Clark-PriceThe Statue of Responsibility will be a

300 ft. tall monument on the west coast of the United States. This icon is the brain-child of Viktor Frankl, the holocaust sur-vivor and author of “Man’s Search for Meaning”. It was in this book that he sug-gested that the Statue of Liberty be “book-ended” by a Statue of Responsibility. He further suggested that if we do not become a more responsible America, we will be at risk of losing our freedoms. We get to ask ourselves if our freedoms are important to us. What price are we willing to pay to ensure the freedoms of our grandchildren and their children?

The project and its accompanying “movement” has been birthed right here in Utah. In fact, the Utah State Legisla-ture passed a recurring resolution recog-nizing Utah as the “Official Birthplace of the Statue of Responsibility” in 2010. Local sculptor, Gary Lee Price has been commissioned to create the massive mon-ument.

As of March 2013, the project was placed in the hands of a new foundation, Responsibility Foundation Inc., a Cali-fornia 501c3 (pending) Corporation.

LIBERTY SHALL BE MAINTAINED

Understanding LibertyBy Casey Beres

True Crime Explained

This month we will consider what constitutes a “true” crime as op-posed to a “legislative” crime. As

discussed recently, America is over-crim-inalized. Anything and everything is considered a crime, merely because leg-islation bans something on pain of pun-ishment. But under the laws of nature, justice, and the Common Law, there are only a limited number of actual crimes.

This month we will consider what constitutes a “true” crime as opposed to a “legislative” crime. As discussed recent-ly, America is over-criminalized. Any-thing and everything is considered a crime, merely because legislation bans something on pain of punishment. But under the laws of nature, justice, and the Common Law, there are only a limited number of actual crimes.

On this earth, there are three forms of law: God’s law, to which the Natural Law belongs, Natural Law, and man’s law. God’s law belongs to God and His appointed servants on earth, since it in-volves offenses against God and His commandments. See D&C 134:4

The Natural Law governs all men, and its subordinate, man’s law, which cannot contradict Natural Law, governs the various groups of men on the face of the earth, according to their individ-ual situations. Both govern ONLY of-fenses against man, the violations of his equal rights. Because God is all just and all merciful, a perfect Being, offenses against his law belong to Him to judge and punish; man cannot touch them (see Mosiah 29:12), inasmuch as the offense is not against man. But man’s law may judge and punish offenses against man, for man’s safety.

God’s law provides a savior for those who violate it, receiving mercy while Christ’s Atonement satisfies justice if the sinner repents. But there is very little to no mercy in man’s law, which lacks a savior. Man’s law tends to know only justice. Therefore, in order to protect the innocent, including those who commit an offense against man unintentionally, the principal of intent and a violation of one’s equal rights are vital requirements for man’s criminal law because justice demands them in a case of no savior and thus no escape from the law. There must be a guilty act AND a guilty mind.

Thus, justice requires in man’s law, in order to be considered a crime, two things: 1.) a victim, another human being whose equal rights have been violated, and 2.) intent to commit such harm. An intentional offense against another hu-man being, intending to harm the other individual in his/her equal rights is the only thing that can be considered a crime under man’s law. If there is no harm of an-other’s equal rights, there is no crime. If there is no intent, yet there is still a vic-tim, there is still no crime. A crime must have both requirements; else-wise there is no crime. And if not a crime, then it is a tort, which will require restitution, usually through civil damages, but can-not justly require loss of life, liberty or property to the hands of the state.

William Blackstone, the famed En-glish jurist who wrote the highly influ-ential “Commentaries of the Laws of England,” an exposition of the English

Common Law, which was adopted by the U.S., wrote in 1765:

“To make a complete crime cogniza-ble by human laws, there must be both a will and an act. For though ... a fixed design or will to do an unlawful act is almost as heinous as the commission of it, yet, as no temporal tribunal can search the heart, or fathom the intentions of the mind, otherwise than as they are demon-strated by outward actions, it therefore cannot punish for what it cannot know. For which reason in all temporal juris-dictions an overt act, or some open evi-dence of an intended crime, is necessary in order to demonstrate the depravity of the will, before the man is liable to pun-ishment. And, as a vicious will, without a vicious act is no civil crime, so, on the other hand, an unwarrantable act without a vicious will is no crime at all. So that to constitute a crime against human laws, there must be, first, a vicious will; and, secondly, an unlawful act consequent upon such a vicious will.”

America’s criminal law used to include these Common Law requirements of a true crime, but it has since abandoned it, making what ever it wants a crime, re-gardless of whether there is a victim or intent. Most traffic laws and Utah’s new cell phone law are blatant examples. But let’s consider a more interesting exam-ple: manslaughter.

In most states, including Utah, man-slaughter is the accidental killing of an-other human being without intent, and is considered a Second Degree Felony in Utah, punishable with not less than one year but up to 15 years in prison plus a possible fine (Utah State Code, Title 76, Ch. 5, Sect. 205 and Ch. 3, Sect. 203).

Yet, we read in the Bible, in Deuteron-omy 19, that the Israelites, God’s chosen people where commanded by God to set apart three separate cities in their land of inheritance, Canaan, for those who com-mit manslaughter to flee to and live, so that “innocent blood” might not be shed in the promised land of Israel by the fam-ily of the slain.

Yet what does America do, God’s cho-sen land for his chosen people today? And what does Utah do, populated as it is by God’s chosen people of today, the Latter Day Saints? We have built prisons instead of refuge cities for the commit-ter of manslaughter, punishing unjustly those who accidentally kill, and therefore commit no crime due to lack of criminal intent. We throw those who are innocent in God’s eyes into dark, damp cells, to languish and rot, where they have more of a chance of becoming actual crimi-nals due to the prison environment that they would have outside its walls. We pass unjust pieces of legislation, falsely criminalizing what apparently is to God a non-criminal act...negligent, perhaps, and requiring restitution, but non-crimi-nal all the same. This is because we have bought into the falsehood that any act, any word, or any thought can be crimi-nal, simply because legislation says so, and because men with guns force it upon us.

To fix the over-criminalization of America, let’s reinstate in our criminal codes, state, and federal, these two Com-mon Law requirements of criminal acts.

The Battle of the Philippines at Leyte GulfWritten by Robert Gent as

told by Wesley D. Roper

On the 25th of October, 1944, we were awakened early by the call to battle sta-tions. The Japanese Navy were sending out planes to attack our fleet which had come to intercept their advances. All our planes had been sent out to attack them and they were on the way back for fuel and munitions. I had gone up to the flight deck to see what was going on. The sun was shining, the sea was calm, it seemed so peaceful, and quiet. As I was standing there, suddenly people started running and the battle station alarm sounded again as someone had spotted a Japanese plane coming in with our own planes. I started for my battle station. It was down by the mess hall below the hanger deck, and I was half way down the stairway when suddenly there was a great explo-sion. All the lights went out and there was total darkness. Then I saw above me on the flight deck fire and smoke. Below me on the hanger deck there was fire and smoke also, so I just stood still. In a few minutes the smoke cleared and I went down past the door to the hanger deck and tried to get to my battle station.

When I got into the mess hall area an officer told me to grab the fire hose and direct the water up through the hole in the ceiling to keep the fire from coming down through the hole. I was kneeling down and shooting the water up through the hole when suddenly there was anoth-er great explosion. Again everything was black and I found myself over against the bulkhead or wall. I had been down in a mine shaft one time and experienced total darkness just like this was. I stood up, not knowing which way to go, when

I felt someone brush past me in the dark-ness. I turned and followed in the same direction. Suddenly the emergency lights came on and I found myself in the pas-sage way to the mess hall. There were other people there also, and I could see a big steel door that had been blown off a storage area, lying on the deck on top of a sailor. Someone said, “Help me lift this off him,” but when I reached down to grab it, I couldn’t close my fingers on the door. I noticed that my hand was hanging loosely and there was a big cut across my wrist that had cut the tendons. Then I noticed that my shirt was hanging open and there was a hole in my chest. I wasn’t bleeding which was strange and I didn’t feel anything. An officer there told me to go into the Officers Mess hall and lie down on the floor and someone

The Veteran’s Memorial Wall at Dalton’s Steakhouse in Payson

The Veteran’s Memorial Wall at Dalton’s Steakhouse

By Katie McDonaldAt Dalton’s Steakhouse in Payson,

Utah, veterans are honored on a wall of tribute in memory of their sacrifices. The owner, Lance Shurtleff, has decorated this familiar family dining establishment with touching photographs and plaques of servicemen and women. He displays pictures of his own father, who served his country, and many other veterans who gave all.

Lanny, as he is fondly called by the local community, says he wanted a place for his customers to “…break bread in the presence of those who gave so much for our precious freedoms. By making this memorial, I hoped to remind every-one that they are still with us--that they have not been forgotten. There’s no bet-ter feeling for me, than seeing a friend or family of one those selfless men and women--- come in, sit down, look up at their loved one’s picture and see them connect, and remember. They call me over and tell me the story…this just gets me every time.”

One customer in particular, Patty Gas-ser, comes in for lunch almost every day. She likes to sit by the picture of her hus-band Don, who served in the naval forc-es in the 1950s. He has recently passed away and coming in to sit quietly be-neath his picture fills her with love and patriotism.

But recently, Patty experienced even more loving reflection than usual at Dalton’s when Cody Robbins came to her table. Cody is a singer, song-writer who graced the stage that night as one of Dalton’s many talented dinner enter-tainers. Cody told her he was so inspired by her and Don’s story that he had writ-ten a song especially for her. The song expresses the heartaches of family mem-bers whose loved ones won’t be coming home. As Cody performed the song that night for Patty, tears filled her eyes as she found comfort in his heartfelt lyrics.

The patrons listened along with her, pausing from their meals in quiet respect to the lines in the song: “…sometimes she stops by…she doesn’t like to ad-mit, he’s not coming home…But as long as she stays here…She doesn’t feel so alone…” (See lyrics on another page in the paper.)

Dalton’s Steakhouse has become more than a place for satisfying one’s hunger with a tender steak. It has become a place that makes a tender connection with the human heart. In these busy days of living fast in our food, relationships, and lives, there is a warmly lit steakhouse in Utah County that has something more. Just ask Patty. She’ll be there at the same table, and so will Don, and all the oth-ers who served …and all of us who feel something’s missing in our lives, ….un-til we look up at a photograph, we hear a song, and then we remember.

“She Doesn’t Feel Alone”, the song that found me

By Cody RobbinsMy wife and I were out with another

couple having dinner and watching an-other singer songwriter friend of ours perform at Dalton’s in Payson. My wife and I arrived early and were seated in the corner. I asked to be moved to another table that had a better view of the stage and the waitress moved us to another ta-ble. She sat us next to a wall that was covered in pictures of soldiers young and old as well as an American flag and some patriotic quotes. The wall was the kind of thing that you notice, but almost sub-consciously. Eventually we found our-selves looking at the wall without even discussing it while we were waiting for our friends to join us. They came and no other attention was paid to the wall until “she” came.

Her name was Patty Gasser, and I didn’t know her yet but I would soon feel very blessed for having made her acquaintance. She came to the edge of our table in the middle of our meal. Our conversation quietly drifted away as we took notice of our visitor. She was very polite and apologized for interrupting our dinner. She explained that she had only come to visit her husband and in-dicated that his picture was on the wall just above our table. She explained that he had just died very recently and through tears she told us that she felt so lost without him and didn’t know what to do. We offered her the table and she politely declined and quietly left. There was not a dry eye at our table and I knew immediately that I had to write this song. I would later learn that the man in this old black and white photo hanging in a little steakhouse in Payson among many other local heroes was Don Gasser.

Don was born on April 13, 1936, the youngest of 3 children born to Leonard Paul and Wilma Gasser. He grew up in the shadow of Loafer Mt. in Haskell-ville, which is now Elk Ridge, Utah. He was the ultimate outdoors man and loved to hunt and fish.

He met the love of his life, Patricia

Ann Lanzo, while in the Navy, in Cal-ifornia, in 1956. Don and Patty were married in Boston on November 3, 1957. They made a home and raised a family for 56yrs. Here in Payson, Utah. Their home was a testament to his love of fam-ily and the outdoors. His craftsmanship and woodworking were admired by all who visited there.

Don was a hard worker giving 28yrs. to U.S. Steel to the Geneva plant where he retired in 1985. Later he worked 11yrs. for the Mt. Nebo School District mowing lawns.He loved to see and visit with all the little kids.

I found this info on his obituary along with this quote “Don’t [grieve] for me for I am not gone…I’m just on the other side watching and waiting for my Love to come.”

I tried my hardest to incorporate that sentiment into the song. After I began writing the song I found Patty on the In-ternet and called her at home. I explained who I was and that I wanted her blessing before I continued paying tribute to her and her husband and their love with my song. She was overjoyed and sent a copy of a DVD that Don had made for his kids and grand kids about his life.

I didn’t meet Patty in person until the night of May 24th when I performed the song for her and many of her family in-cluding her grandchildren. I had made arrangements with the owner of Dal-ton’s to entertain his guests that night. Arrangements were also made to have a Fox 13 camera crew at the restaurant to do a Memorial Day Weekend story about Patty and Don and my song. I also spoke with Patty’s daughter Teresa and we decided that since Teresa would be picking her mother up from the airport earlier that day that they would take her out to dinner, straight to Dalton’s where she would be surprised. I was nervous to have Patty hear the song but I was very excited to pay tribute to her husband and their loving relationship.

Performing the song was easier than I imagined it. Having the news camera their added to my nervousness but I felt like I was singing it just for Patty even though it was the first time she heard it, I knew that it connected with her since it was all true and, after all it was her story. She cried a bit and I got a little choked up whenever I made eye contact with her. After I finished the song, the restaurant, that had been relatively qui-et up to that point, erupted in applause. I knew that I had just accomplished something that I had set out to do when I wrote my very first song. Something that I had only done a handful of times before. I had written a song that had touched the hearts of people that listened to it. I made people feel something. The best part about it was the fact that I got to do it live and hear, see, and feel their response. There was a high level of emo-tion in the room and it felt great!

As a songwriter I know that some songs I just write, and some of the songs I write find me. This is one of those songs.

Note: Lance Shurtleff would like to invite the community to bring pictures of local Veterans to Dalton’s Steakhouse. Frames will be provided. Call Dalton’s at (801) 623-9358.

Pat Gasser and Cody Robbins at Dalton’s Steakhouse in Payson on Saturday May 24th, 2014.

“She Doesn’t Feel Alone” Original song by Cody Robbins

(V1) We went out the other night to have dinner with some friends.Suddenly this woman was standing at our table’s end.

Our conversation disappeared and then she apologized,explaining how she missed him as the tears filled her eyes.

(V2) She told us he had meant the world for more than 50 years.She felt so lost without him that she couldn’t hide the tears.The kind of love that they had, was as pure as it was rare.

Oh the way she talked about him, you would think that he was there.

(Chorus) Sometimes she stops by, just to see him in this place.almost reaches out, as if to touch his face.

She don’t like to admit that he’s not coming home,but as long as he stays here she doesn’t feel alone.

(V3) He leans up against the wall overlooking everyone, watching and waiting for his love to come.

He don’t count the time as it passes everyday,he just hangs out patiently hoping that she comes his way.

Repeat Chorus

(V4) Her memories of the love they shared are all she thinks aboutShe knows she can’t be with him but it doesn’t get her down

A frame surrounds this soldier’s face frozen in a black & whiteYou can almost hear him whispering, “I’m just on the other side.”

Repeat Chorus

As long as he stays here, she doesn’t feel alone.

Utah Couple to fit 26 years of vacation into one year

By Britnee JohnstonOrem-based couple Mark and Britnee

Johnston are departing on May 26 for a trip of a lifetime, attempting to fit the equivalent of 26 years of vacation into a single year.

After a trip abroad in 2011, the John-stons became unhappy knowing they would have to work an entire year be-fore earning their allotted 10 days of va-cation. With so many destinations they wished to see, the couple decided that quitting their jobs and traveling for a year straight was the best plan. In doing so they would fit 26 years worth of two-week vacations into one year.

The Johnstons began plans for what would become a trip around the world shortly after they were married in 2012. Now, less than two weeks before depar-ture, they have saved enough to fund their world trip for an entire year.

Flying first to Tokyo, Japan, they will then continue traveling west spending

a month in China before catching the Trans-Mongolian Railway into Russia. After visiting extended family in Eu-rope, the Johnstons will then turn back to Southeast Asia, the Pacific and South America.

“We’ve dreamed of seeing so many places around the world, but it seemed like an unattainable goal in our daily work lives,” said Britnee. “With destina-tions on our itinerary including Tokyo, a panda reserve in China, the Lofoten Is-lands in Norway and mountain villages in the Himalayas, we hope this trip will help satisfy our travel desires before we settle down.”

The Johnstons hope to inspire others interested in traveling or accomplishing other life goals. To do so they plan on sharing their journey, experiences and detailed plans online at http://www.one-worldoneyear.com.

would come and check me out.When I got into the Mess Hall I found

the water fountain had broken and deck was covered with about two inches of cold water. I gladly lay down and it felt so cool and peaceful. As I lay there I thought, “This will all be over soon and then I’ll be taken care of.”

Suddenly there was another big explo-sion and all the lights went out again. I just lay there as there was nothing I could do. Then the emergency lights came on again. I could feel that I was getting stiff and it was getting harder to move. Suddenly there was another great explosion and again all the lights went out. I could hear people say-ing the Captain has ordered abandon ship. I got up even though I was stiff and went out into the passage way where there were other people moving toward a ladder to the upper deck. I didn’t know if I could climb the ladder or not but I was going to try.

When it got to be my turn I climbed with one arm but there was a bar bent across the opening and I could only get part way out. Someone down below grabbed my feet and gave me a lift up. I rolled out of the way and started crawling toward the outside exit. I didn’t stand up, as there were bullets from the planes that were on fire, zinging around the hanger deck. I finally got out side and it was so peaceful out there it was unbelievable. An officer told me to blow up my life jacket and get into the water. So I blew up my Mae West Life Jacket that was like a flat inner tube, and move to slide down the rope into water. As I went down the rope I found I was still high above the water so I just let go and dropped.

We were taught that when a ship goes down it will create a whirlpool so you have to get away from the ship or be dragged down by it. I tried to swim but found I couldn’t make any progress. I noticed that the ship was moving away from me so I didn’t have to swim. All the time I was in the water there was explosion after explo-sion and after every explosion, the water all around was sprayed with flying chunks of steel and bits of the ship. Many of those who escaped into the water were hit by this flying shrapnel. I later found out that the fire cause by the Japanese Kamikaze plane had gone down the elevator shaft, and oth-er than the original explosion all the fol-lowing explosions were our own bombs and torpedoes exploding, until it blew a hole in the bottom and side of the ship. Later I found out it was only 32 minutes from the time the Kamikaze hit until the ship went under. The ship gradually tipped on its side, with men still dropping off it. Then suddenly the bow came out of the water, sticking straight up into the air, and gradually it slipped down into the water still exploding as it disappeared.

I found that my life vest had a leak, as I was floating lower in the water, so I had to blow it up every so often. Some men, who were on a life raft, straddling the sides as it had no bottom, paddled over to me and helped me on it. I lay on my arm that was cut, to keep the sea water out of the wound. I kept singing the favorite song of my sweetheart and I, when we danced at high school, “you’d be so nice to come home to,” over and over again. I was shak-ing so badly and so hard that probably no one could understand what I was saying. There was so much debris in the water, bombs, and torpedoes that the rescue boats were careful about coming to rescue us so we were in the water quite a while. Some reported seeing the fins of sharks, but I never noticed any.

We were finally picked up by the boats of a destroyer escort and taken to a destroy-er. We were given first aid treatment and the most serious wounded given immedi-ate attention as best they could. We were put in the bunks of the crew, and I asked someone to get me another life jacket. All night long there was the sound and shaking as the guns fired at other Japanese planes trying to hit the ship. Our ship was the first

casualty of the Kamikaze plane attacks but there were several other ships hit and sunk that day. It was the Japanese final attempt to win the war by such drastic measures. Their pilots believed they were going to eternal, everlasting glory in the name of their emperor. This day was the turning point and the beginning of the downfall of the Japanese Empire. If they had persisted in their attack on our fleet which was in-ferior, in number, to the Japanese fleet the outcome would have been different accord-ing to written reports.

The Destroyer that had me and many others went out to a converted landing craft that was made into a first aid ship because the Hospital Ship was way out in the ocean to avoid the Kamikaze Planes. On the first aid ship we received medical assistance and food. After several days we arrived at the Hospital ship and were lifted aboard. This day was the first day that I had felt sick. When I was settled in a bed, here came a cute nurse with my food tray and she fed me and I ate all of it. It took sev-eral days to get my turn in surgery because there where so many more badly wounded than I was. The shrapnel in me must have been white hot and seared itself as it went in, so I hadn’t bled very much at all. The hospital ship took us to a hospital in New Guinea where we received more attention and surgery. They took about 100 pieces of shrapnel out of me but the deeper pieces they left in thinking it would do more harm to cut them out than to leave them in.

Eventually we were sent home on the troop transport Luraline, a converted liner. I spent my recuperating days in the hospi-tal at San Leandro, California. I was there when the war ended spending my time on the beach sunning, eating, playing table tennis to get the movement in my wrist back as they didn’t sew up the tendons but put my arm in a cast and let them grow back together. I believe I have been truly blessed and watched over. I want to thank all those who helped me recuperate from my experiences, my wife and my family for helping me be here today.

There is a Veterans Memorial Room at the Peteetneet Academy, and on the wall in the north East corner is a memorial of the USS ST LO written by Paul Hjorth of Springville, He tells of Gordon Menden-hall of Payson who was killed that day, and Junior Anderson of Spanish Fork who sur-vived the sinking of the USS ST LO. One person who knew Gordon said he came out, then went back for some reason and never came out again. Gordon and I were the only ones from Payson on the ship. Thank you for listening to my story today, Thank you all!

Thoughts on ZionBy Jesse Fisher

Building Zion in Utah

Why do we Mormons use the term “Zion” to refer to the Church here in Utah? Because our LDS

forefathers were actually, physically en-gaged in building a real-live Zion society here during the 1850s and beyond. Our use of the term in that context today is just an echo of their determined efforts to build the real thing.

President Brigham Young stated in 1853 that the Saints gathered to Utah be-cause they “anticipated deliverance from [the economic and religious] hell [of their homelands], to find a heaven with the Saints; [they] expected to exchange [Babylon’s] confusion for a Zion of or-der and beauty....”

In 1854, Apostle Heber C. Kimball expressed the hope that he and Brigham would “live many years yet to assist in making permanent the foundations of Zion”.

In 1855, President Young said, “When our Elders go out to preach the Gospel, they tell the people to gather to Zion. Where is it? It is at the City of the Great Salt Lake in the Valleys of the Moun-tains, in the settlements of Utah Territo-ry—there is Zion now.“

In 1856, the sometimes-brash Young

bellowed, “Let [Congress] attend to their own business, and we will build up Zion while they go to hell.” (Bravo!)

1857 - “You hear brethren talk of coming to Zion to enjoy the blessings of this land; but do you not see that it is the short-sightedness of men which causes their disappointment when they arrive here? They read in the [scriptures] about Zion, and what it is to be; but [they] could not realize... that they were the ones to help to build up Zion. They gather here with the spirit of Zion resting upon them, and expecting to find Zion in its glory, whereas their own doctrine should teach them that they are coming here to make Zion.” - Brigham Young.

1860 - “The Lord has led the people carefully along... from place to place, until, finally, we have come into these valleys in the mountains. Why? The Lord... has known, from the beginning of creation, that this is the land whereon to build this Zion.” - Brigham Young.

It’s 154 years later and there’s no Zion society in sight. Zion was derailed in the 1880s. Babylon reigns in confusion. But wait... there is still hope for us!

Kristian Huff, unveiled first production

Merit College Preparatory Academy senior, Kristian Huff, unveiled his first original production entitled, “A Day in the Life” at Merit Academy on May 9-10, at 7:00 p.m.

While participating in Merit Acade-my’s unique Fusion Honors Program, Huff was encouraged by his instructors to write, produce and direct a produc-tion for his senior project. With the help of fellow Merit Academy student and co-writer Jessi Reyes, Huff had his directorial debut of his original pro-duction.

The Fusion Honors Program is one of Merit Academy’s unique directives to prepare its students for higher edu-cation. Students are required to com-plete two experiences from seven areas of influences ranging from: Science, Math, Literature, History, Philosophy,

Technology, Art, Architecture, Film, Music, Theater, Foreign Culture, etc. Students get to experience field trips to art museums, religious festivals, and enjoy classic literature and movies.

Students are not re-quired to participate in The Fusion Hon-ors Program, but are strongly encouraged to take part.

“Merit Acade-my has significant-ly helped students thrive, all while challenging them to reach limits they didn’t know they could do,” said Tara Greenwood, Kris-tian’s mother and a Merit Academy School Board mem-ber. “Because of the Fusion Honors Program and help from his instructors, Kristian has been able to direct this special production.”

“A Day in the Life” follows the

story of 5 American teenagers and their foreign friend who comes to America for the first time. The production fo-cuses on their unique stories and expe-riences while living in New York City. The production will include musical numbers performed by Merit Acade-my’s own Dance Company, Ballroom Company, Orchestra, Choir, Band and the Glee-inspired club, Satori.

Merit College Preparatory Acade-my is a tuition-free charter school in Springville, Utah. For additional infor-mation, visit their website www.meri-tacademy.org or contact their director Kim Mitchell at (801) 491-7600.

Mike Ewing, Volunteer Firefighter, stands in the center between other firefight-ers for the City of Springville. He retired on May 9, 2014.

Mike Ewing Retires from the Springville Fire Department

In the fall of 1989 Mike Ewing be-came a member of the Springville Vol-unteer Fire Department. On May 9, 2014 his official service to the citizens of the city he loves came to a close as he re-tired. He was honored at an open house at the fire station on May 28th. Members of the fire department and Mike’s fami-ly and friends were there to extend their gratitude for the time and devotion he has shown in this assignment.

Mike expressed his love to the mem-bers of the department who have truly become his brothers. There is a bond that can’t be broken among the firemen who bravely serve this community.

Mike expressed that he “would walk into a burning building for any of them.”

It was then mentioned that he has indeed done that.

Many citizens of Springville can also say that he has walked into their burning homes to protect their families and prop-erty. He has done this because of his love for people and his love for the great city of Springville.

After leaving the fire station with all the firemen lined up to wave good-bye, Mike and his wife, Sharon were given a ride to their home in the fire truck with lights blazing and sirens blaring.

That was a bitter sweet journey up Center Street. A very special part of that ride was that the driver was their son, Daniel who carries on the legacy as a proud Springville Volunteer Firefighter.

On May 21st, the FFA from SHS overlooked the planting of flowers in the planter boxes on Main Street that were recently painted by students from Merit Academy.

SHS Club Service DayBy Caitlin Dinkel

On Wednesday, May 21st, Springville High School joined to help make our community a little bit more beautiful. Many of the school’s clubs joined to-gether to clean up around the school, and the FFA overlooked planting flowers along Main Street in Springville. Twen-ty-one planter boxes were given a new look that day, with eight gorgeous plants in each one. All of the plants were grown in the FFA greenhouse, which is located

at Springville High School. While it was the FFA members that

instigated this part of the school wide service project, many members of the local National Honor Society chapter were there, along with Student Council members. At the entrance to the parking lot at the high school, there is a large, engraved rock that the class of 2012 do-nated. The areas around this rock, and the trees that line the road, were weeded in order to make our school the beautiful place we know it to be.

A Walk to RememberA walk to remember was created as a

symbolic way to show the love we carry for the ones we mourn. The 2 mile walk will be in conjunction with the National Walk to Remember! A day to open our hearts to those we miss. Some go the full distance while others only walk a short way knowing that in participating, they are remembering. Special Walk to Remember t-shirts are given to all who

register, as well as walk bibs where the names of those being remembered can be written.

Hot Days Beg For Cool DrinksDelectable DiningBy Kaye Nelson

Kaye enjoyed a sampling of cool drinks/treats be-tween Santaquin and Springville.

You can order a cold drink any day of the year but you won’t enjoy it as much as when the sun beats

down on bare arms and flip-flop clad feet. Why? Because it refreshes. And there are plenty of cool, refreshing drinks to be found from Springville to Santaquin.

Rowley’s Red Barn in Santaquin: When you see people ordering ice cream at 10:30 a.m. you know something is up. The hard part wasn’t deciding to eat ice cream that early, it was deciding what flavor.

Besides ice cream Rowley’s offers caramel apples, cookies the size of small plates, turnovers, bagged candy, popcorn and about 17 kinds of fudge.

We ordered a coconut soda with key lime ice cream. A taste of the tropics with a splash of citrus makes for a light, perfect summer drink.

We also had a Heath bar milkshake. You can’t really mess up a milkshake – ice cream, milk, fruit or candy bars – how can you go wrong? The question more about milkshakes is density – are they straw worthy or spoon worthy? This Heath shake was spoon worthy with wonderful chunks of Heath bar in Row-ley’s homemade ice cream. At $4.49 it’s a bit on the high end but then you are paying for that homemade touch.

Daley Freez in Payson: It’s been there since dinosaurs roamed Utah and is one of those quintessential stand-alone burg-er joints with a steady stream of custom-ers. We had onion rings (not part of our mission but we couldn’t resist and you shouldn’t either) and a raspberry milk-shake. This shake was also spoon worthy – fruity and creamy.

Glade’s in Spanish Fork: Also here since the dawn of time, or 59 years, it is one of the great places for burgers and shakes in town. We tried a caramel choc-olate shake and found it to be more straw worthy than spoon worthy. I’ve discov-ered people have definite likes and dis-

like about the thickness of milkshakes. There really are two camps and while I am in the spoon worthy camp, I can be flexible and enjoy one through a straw from time to time. Again, the hardest part was choosing the flavor. You can blend two flavors at no extra cost and mixing chocolate and caramel were heavenly.

Rita’s in Spanish Fork: If you haven’t gone to Rita’s yet, drop your cell phone and go now. We had a Gelati – a com-bination of custard and ice. We chose Mango ice that was sandwiched between layers of custard. As they melted togeth-er it became this infusion of addictive delightfulness. After all the tastes we’d had at other places (we were putting left-overs in a cooler after each stop) we still nearly licked the cup clean. Prices range from $2.49 to $3.99.

Little Acorn in Spanish Fork: I re-viewed Little Acorn last year. In fact, the shakes, spoon worthy in case you are keeping track, were the highlight of our meal. We were impressed with the size of the shakes. A small isn’t. It’s plenty and creeps over the top of the cup by at least an inch. And it’s only $2.89 – a real bargain!

SOS in Springville: Our delectable rocky road shake was somewhere be-tween spoon worthy and straw worthy. Patrons enjoy not only old time prices ($2.25 for a shake) but the ambiance of a real soda fountain. You can sit on vintage stools at the long counter. It’s a gathering place for an older generation but kids are learning how valuable this great living piece of history is in the heart of Springville. It’s been there since 1909 – now that’s staying power!

Venture out this summer when you’re hot and thirsty and need to cool off. There are shave ice places all over the valley, usually only here for a few months but also these and many other here-to-stay eateries with myriad flavors and over-the-top creamy goodness.\

Dr. Hulse receives dental award

By Heather HulseWhen one of our community is hon-

ored and recognized for accomplish-ments on a national level, its an acheive-ment for all of us to share as it enriches and reflects well on the place we call home. This year our own Dr Benjamin Hulse, DDS, from Salem Smiles Family Dentistry, has been chosen as one of the nation’s top 40 dentists under 40!

On an annual basis, Incisal Edge Mag-azine chooses from among thousands of nominated dentists, forty that exemplify the best that the field of dentistry has to offer. Outlining this endeavor, last year’s edition described the process:

“Our profession teems with talent: Young doctors nationwide are invigorat-ing the practice of dentistry with creative ideas, technological prowess and top-notch patient care. Incisal Edge is proud to showcase these peerless practitioners

in our . . . annual 40 Under 40 – the fin-est young dentists who exemplify the innovative present and boundless future promise of our industry”.

Dr. Hulse described the event: “The whole event was an honor and a rush. We flew out to New York City for the photo shoot and to meet the other doc-tors. I’ve never been dressed by ‘profes-sionals’, and I’m like most of us in that taking pictures isn’t the most enjoyable thing in the world. But I’ve always tried to be the best I can with each patient I see, and to be honored for that seems un-real. My patients satisfaction is still the best reward, but Im not going to lie – this whole experience was just awesome”

The 40 under 40 edition won’t be out until fall of 2014, but copies will be available digitally for free at www.in-cisaledgemagazine.com, as well as, we imagine, at Salem Smiles Family Den-tistry. Hint, hint Dr. Hulse. And congrat-ulations!

Sixth grade students present “Let’s go on an adventure” at Art City Elementary on May 22.

Let’s go on an adventure!Art City Sixth-grade presented a pro-

gram for students and parents on Thurs-day May 22, 2014. “Let’s go on an ad-venture!” Austin said to his friends. They find reasons not to go, but Austin is de-termined to go out and “see the world”. As he journey’s, he sees and experiences good and bad things, kind people, and a few “ruffians”. The students portrayed, through song and dance, many things

Austin experienced. A few things they sang about were Defying Gravity, being Alone in the Universe and How Lucky You Are. Mrs. Gardener and Mrs. Cox helped the choreograph dances, which was much appreciated. Thursday eve-ning after the students performed for their parents they officially “graduated” from the sixth-grade.

Utah’s 4th Lighthouse SchoolBy Adam Gull

Recently, Park faculty, parents and students rejoiced at the wonderful news of becoming a Lighthouse School. When you think of a lighthouse, you imagine a beacon illuminating its light in all direc-tions beckoning to the incoming ships there is safety after the storm. A light-house also warns of danger of rocks and other obstacles that stand in the way of reaching the shore.

How fitting is it then that Park Ele-mentary will now stand as a beacon of leadership in the community of Span-ish Fork? Kids are faced with so much these days that they need something to look to. They need somewhere they can go to learn not only academics, but develop skills that will prepare them for life’s storms and rocky shorelines. Whether you know Park Elementary as the school in the middle of town up Cen-ter Street, or you sit nearby during the Fiesta Days Parade, or you have played ball at the baseball diamond, or you were one the thousands that attended elemen-tary here… you KNOW Park Elementa-ry. When you think of Park Elementary now, you will know it as a Lighthouse school that prepares leaders in education

and in the community.So what does “Lighthouse School”

mean? Sean Covey, Education Practice Leader of FranklinCovey, states: “The Leader in Me Lighthouse School title is awarded by FranklinCovey to honor the attainment of a well-rounded leadership model.” “Lighthouse Schools serve as models of leadership and mentors to oth-er schools. It is sort of like getting your blackbelt.” “Lighthouse Schools have achieved extraordinary results by meet-ing the standards laid out in the Light-house Criteria. These nine criteria have been identified as critical to the develop-ment of a leadership culture.” To learn more, please visit www.theleaderinme.org.

“Overcoming Fake Talk: How to Hold Real Conversations That Create Respect, Build Relation-ships and Get Results,” by John R. Stoker, McGraw Hill Education, $20, 276 pages.

With the hundreds of communi-cation books published every year, you’d think we’d be bet-

ter at it. Unless you’re stranded alone on a desert island, you are participating in conversations daily - but are you getting any better at them?

Springville author and founder/pres-ident of DialogueWorks John Stoker, has written an enlightening book with the provocative title, “Overcoming Fake Talk”. The book is designed to help busi-ness leaders, employees, neighbors and families improve the quality of their con-versations.

He uses his 20 years experience as an attorney, river rafting guide, and busi-ness coach to offer eight principles with titles like, “Do You Ruin Everything by Being You?”. This chapter encourages the reader to try the Reflection Principle to check their part in a presentations and conversations.

Another chapter tackles the ever-pop-ular issue of ego. It’s titled, “Why Ego Off?” and talks about the Connection Principle – Listen and Attend to Con-nect. We listen with our ears but we at-tend with the rest of us –“our eyes, our heart, our body, and our thinking”.

The author asks, “Why don’t we lis-ten?” then answers, “Ego! In our conver-sations we are often more preoccupied with what is important to us rather than the person sitting in front of us.”

The book is more than an eight step program to cure our fake talk, or coun-terfeit conversations. Each principle is illustrated with personal experiences and stories to help the reader relate to the information. Research, charts and dia-grams provide additional “hmmm” and “ah hah” moments.

I liked the “gentle reminders” at the end of each chapter. These nagging little bullet points should be printed and taped to the mirror. Here’s a good one: “Don’t believe everything you think. Just be-cause you think something doesn’t make it so.” Or how about putting this on a Post-it note: “You can defuse emotion - your own and others’- by asking ques-tions.”

I think most readers can agree with Stoker’s premise that much of our con-versation doesn’t bring about the results we hope for as we try to communicate. We all have difficulty managing our thinking, feelings, words and actions and could use some helpful information to improve those conversations.

For more information about the book and where it is available for purchase, visit www.overcomingfaketalk.com.

Utah Elks hold 3rd Annual “Ride of Honor”.

“Ride of Honor” for VeteransBy Robert Pagnani

Utah Elks along with the Diamond Fork Riding Club of Spanish Fork held their 3rd Annual “Ride of Honor” for Veterans.The event was held again at the Spanish Fork Arena. This was held to honor our Veterans and we were sur-prised and also honored when Veterans from the Central Utah Veterans Home in Payson showed. Utah Elks Veter-

ans Chairman Robert Pagnani said the Veterans were excited when they heard they were getting Chili Dogs. One Vet-eran said we get chicken and burgers and after a while it is all the same, but when they heard chili dogs they wanted to know if they could have to go boxes after they finished? Pagnani said we just want to make sure that we show our Vet-erans that we care and especially to our Vietnam Veterans “Welcome Home”!

Remember. Remember.Our Family & Friends.

On May 22nd local residents, scout groups, the American Legion Post 68 ar-rived at Spanish Fork Cemetery to serve those that have served us. As one w a l k e d through the area a peace-ful feeling could be felt as remem-bering those who died for us, is a noble task. James Mea-son, (WWII, US Navy) with the A m e r i c a n Legion said, “It’s kind of nostal-gic to walk t h r o u g h [the flags] and see your friends names. I used to see and associate with all the time.”

A n o t h e r

local resident, Michele Brown, stated “I was in the army. This really needs to be done. Its heart warming to see so many

people come out and set these crosses and flags up.”

In 1987 there were about 180 crosses, today there are over 1600. Shall we renounce war and proclaim peace?

Serve Daily would like to thank all the men and wom-en who uphold The Consti-tution of the USA. May we work to main-tain our indi-vidual free-dom through having respon-sibility and promoting true liberty.

Springville City Disaster Drill coming in AugustBy Martin Palmer

The Springville Public Safety De-partment in partnership with CERT and hundreds of Block Captains and other emergency preparedness personnel is planning a city-wide drill that will test the city’s plan for handling emergencies.

So what do you do? It depends on who you are and how much you want to partici-pate. If you are a Neighborhood Block Captain you will be walking your block starting at 7:30 am and looking for red markers placed in certain locations by your Stake Emergency Preparedness Specialist. If you are CERT trained, or have medical skills, or you are a heavy equipment operator or building contrac-tor you may want to report to the nearest Stake Center to volunteer to help with a simulated mass casualty exercise. Time to report is 8:30 am and the more the merrier. This part of the drill is planned to end by 11:00 am.

If you are none of the above you do nothing during this drill. However, if this were a real emergency, you would be ex-pected to do the following.

1. Place a colored marker in a win-dow facing the street indicating the con-

dition of your family. RED indicates you need help immediately. Yellow means you need help, but not immedi-ately, Green shows you are alright, and Black indicates there has been a death in your household. This information can be quickly gathered by your Block Cap-tain as he/she walks past your home and then can be reported to the Ward (Zone) Emergency Center, which will be relayed by ham radio to the City Emergency Op-erations Center. City resources will be assigned according to the information passed up this chain. The use of LDS ward and stake boundaries to determine Zones and Sectors is for convenience only and does not imply only LDS mem-bers are to participate.

2. After checking your own status and if you are able, you should check your neighbors to the right, to the left and across the street and then report anything that needs attention to the Block Captain or the Ward (Zone) Emergency Center.

The information gained from this drill will be invaluable in making the city emergency plan work in the case of a

real disaster. We hope those who par-ticipate learn much and have a lot of fun, at the same time.

5 Steps to natural yard care1. Build healthy soil with compost and mulch.2. Plant right for your site.3. Practice smart watering.4. Think twice before using pesticides
