Thinking about this senseless bereavement, I lose all my Christmas Spirit, and this close to the big day, it isn't good. Well, anyhow I am grateful to. the Boel Studio. However there is one pic-ture of those trees I have yet to see, 'and that is a close-up of the tree Just to the left of the foot bridge going up the road, the tree that seems to rest on the water of the canal.

The tree divides into two huge roots that spread in opposite directions, and it always since I can remember anything reminded me of a swan, floating serene and graceful on the still waters. I keep thinking that someone, SOMEONE will send me a picture of this, but no one does. The "Swan Tree" somehow found a special place in my heart. It was a little different than the run of the mill trees (as if there were any such thing as a run of the mill tree). It had character.

It was unique I am already talking about those trees in the past tense. You remember the horizontal tree that used to grace the south side of Provo canyon (before it became Desolation Gulch) up high on the mountain, not far below the present dam site? That tree was known to thousands who looked for it, clinging snugly to the mountain side, running along the ground. A rugged individualist among trees. Well, it was jerked out, senselessly, and people lost the sight of something that stirred the imagination. So it is with my Swan Tree.

I hope those dead trees will not be torn up. If they are cut off they wilC grow again, nothing like they were, but at least in the same spots. I had no intention of talking about trees when I started. I have been trying to endure what cannot be chaneed but I'm makinc noor iDe cnangea, dui im iuaKiiij; poor work of it. To the Nan Merriman concert last night.

Almost didn't go. Had spent the whole day walking the down-town streets shopping and fighting the weather which seemed to go from bad to, worse, as soon as I tried to drive. But I did go and was glad. Miss Merriman highly complimented the acoustics of our tabernacle (though such a voice as hers would overcome any obstacle.) I. am almost afraid to mention this, as someone will at once decide the old pile ought to come down for no reason on earth but that it is still standing.

That is as good a reason as any to the "Progressives." Alright, so I'm bitter! A beeeooootiful day outside, and too! But seeing this is NOT the week we have laundry come, beautiful Tuesday is sot surprising.

Dearie.

Witness the fact that as soon as the harassed committee decided to postpone the Christmas parade indefinitely, the sun came out and apparently for good. Well, at least there will be fewer little girls come down with pneumonia from exposure. I know I'm an old fossil and confirmed fuddy-duddy (whatever that is) but I would like to know why our moppets can't be clothed for winter in a Christmas parade instead of being decked out a-la-May Day for dear old Santa Claus. What is wrong with a girl twirling a baton in a snow suit instead of a ballet tu-tu in the bitter cold of the -valleys of the mountains at Yuletide? I'm just asking and so long, folks. Timp.
