by J. Franklin Foster

I heard the bullets whistling by— They whistled past; I did not know why. Despite the gore it’s all those sounds That whizzed and zipped and brought men down, Of bullets thudding into flesh That keeps alive the ghoulish mess. It’s surprising, yes, that time has quelled The sights of troops that spilled and fell: Through Abrams, Barrett, Cohn and, Dane, Through Wills, and Ox, and Young, and Zane. All fought their best, did what they could, Were Heroes all, yet still I stood. Cedar City honored Veterans Day with several special programs including Suppressed in mind are not the smells one at the Korean War Memorial. The Cedar Middle School Choir sang patriotic songs and several Veterans were honored with Quilts of Valor, while stories and Of burning flesh or powdered shells. memories were shared of those who served our great nation. Some gave all and It’s not the faces, figures and falls all gave some. God bless America. That echoes in my chamber halls. No, none of those still haunt my mind— Though surely each could be unkind. No, what still pricks and pains and pounds- In dreaded calm, I hear those sounds… The sounds of bullets whistling by, Whistling and whizzing for those to die. Yet they did miss—by whose decree? This blessing, this curse—why, God? Why me? Whistling and whizzing by my head, They thudded into buddies soon to be dead. The bullets pounded and pierced the air, They killed and killed and didn’t care. So many heroes, so many friends So many lives had come to an end. Yet I survived and don’t know why,

Why did I live, and why did they die? photos by corey baumgartner But life moves on, and so I found Life must be lived above the ground. I worked my job and earned my share, My wife and I have raised kids who care. I’m happy grown, now old and gray I’m happy rocking time away. Yet still there’re times when I recall A group of men who stood so tall, Who saved the free and fought so brave And served so well before the grave. I see their smiles and feel their souls, I feel their loss and mourn their tolls. Still hear the bullets whistling by— And one day soon, God’ll tell me why.

Mayor Jessop is from Hildale and is the first female mayor in the town’s history. She explained that she was raised in an a-typical polygamist family as her father had two wives and she was one of 16 children. She added that she was raised with kelsey keener Mayor Jessop and Shirlee Darger (middle) with members of the board of the Iron County Republican Women education, holiday celebrations and programs such as theatre plays. that walk, I was walking alongside them.

After telling her husband she would not break her family up, she decided to move to Saint George and lived in the Santa Clara area for three years before her husband wanted to move back to Hildale. Mayor Jessop agreed to move back after a pros and cons list revealed there were more reasons to than not to. When she moved back to Hildale in July 2017, Mayor Jessop began a grassroots coalition to start reconstructing the community. The coalition slowly gained support and as election season started to come around, she said she knew it was her responsibility to run for mayor. Although she has no affiliation with the religion anymore, she considers the people of that community to be her tribe. “I had a knowledge that it was my turn to stand up for my people,” she said. “In the last two years, we have been able to help hundreds more that have chosen to come out and be a part of regular society and we’ve been able to help clear a path for them and make it an easier transition to them.” Mayor Jessop added that during her time as mayor, most of what she has accomplished has been simply through listening. “Mainly what I did is I shut my mouth and I listened,” she said. “I listened to the people – what is it that you need?

This season their theme centers around the origins of music, inviting listeners to find the sto- rytelling aspects, emotional layers and inspiration music has always had on society. This most recent concert focused on musical poetry by performing movements from Romeo and Juliet by Sergei Prokofiev, Romanze by Max Bruch, “Tara’s Theme” from Gone With the Wind and a symphonic poem from Franz Liszt. Curiosity prompted me to research the meaning of a musical poem before I attended the concert and therefore added to my experience as I accepted the encouragement from OSU President and Master of Ceremonies, Harold Shirley, to imagine scenes inspired by the music.
