L. Milde,nh.zll, Manager of the Utah State Employment Service at Provo, to Joseph S. Mnyer, Director of the Utan State Employment Sarvice: "On ivlarch 27th the Msnager and Senior Interviewers of ' the Provo Office of tnc Utan State Employment Service were guests for the dvening at the* Provo C.C.C. Camp. A tour of the cmp under the guidance 0.f Mr. K2rl Bunnell, Educ_ztiond Adviser, was both educw tion21 2nd impressive. The recreational facilities of this canp are exceptionally good and the educntiond department is outstanding. "The result of n comprehensive training program was mmifest in the attitude of the young men interviewed by the Employment Office per- sonnel. After standing retreat with the men, and partaking of an exczllent supper, a number of the men whose enlistments were expiring ners permitted to file applications for employment. Eight men whose records showed exceptional 2bility were selected by the Comrncnding Officer, Lt :Lorenz. These inm have since been referred to the St~~te Employment Service, and in competition with other :~pplicants, many of whom hpdd long records of employment, these young men were selected by the yospective employer 2nd are now profitably employed. "There is a noticeable difference in the mental attitude of the boys rho hnve had the privilege of tr2ining in the C.C.C. :is compared with the 2"verage run of.youth who hnve not been given tht opportunity. They are more nlert, no.tic2ably courteous md exceptionally well- trained in their chosen vocations. '' A much more qpropri<%tequestion for the tnffic officer to ask after he has flagged you down for hitting too fast a clip is not -- "Where's the fire? -- rather, "X%erels the accident going to be?"

I'Vest retired from active duty after s;?end- ing 28 yeF4rs in the Forest Service. Ranger 'Test began his career as Assistr-,nt Forest Rmger on the Humboldt National Forest May 22, 1911. In May 19.6 he transferred to the iil~dscztchForest, where he served as Ranger on the American Fork District until the time of his retirement. Rmger ?Test had not rexhed the retirament nge, but it was necessary for him to leave the Servics because of an injury he sustained in official work. Much progress has been made in the Forest Ser:~!-cedxrirlg the period "Viv" h~~sserved 2s a, Ranger, to which he contributec". h s t~31share. He has accorni?lishect a lot of good work, especially on th.: :irw1.i-san Fork District where his mnagkrnent of the cnttle range has been uni ;,re ,)rd outstanding. On this Distrlcl: tnere also has been developed in rece!::. ' aars one of the most important rccreationctl centers in the IntermounL;~,11 ???st.

All of tlVivts*numerous friends znd associates wish him 2nd his nife mcn happiiless during his period of retirement. Tne long-sought addition to the Cache National Forest comprising the watersheds adjacent to the Wellsville Mountain and nearby areas will soon become 3 reality following the approval by the Secretary of the Interior of the proposed l?4d!.ddition. The area to be added comprises some 436,000 acres of land, largely in private ownership, with only a minor acreage of Public Domain inter- mingled throughout. It is expected that formal administration of the area will be initiated zs soon as the usual Executive Order is signed by the Presi- dent. The unanimous support of a11 adjacent communities to the important watersheds involved was concentrated in getting the approval of this important land area. Essential parts of Ogden, Bear, and Weber River watersheds are included within the new addition. It is expected that beginning in the Fiscal Year 1940 under an item now included in the Agricultural Appropriation Bill, a land acquisition program will be started within this and previous adjoining additions to the Cache Forest. THE CIVILIAN CONSERVATION CORPS is pretty widely hailed as a success, but not so by n little old mountain woman of Hydan, Kentucky.

It was recommended by Dr Hans Klaui, Genealogical Investigation Office, Oberwinterthur, Switzerland through correspondence with Spencer Overholser and Dr Winfred Overholser, then Supt. of St Elizabeth's Hospital in Washington DC. Pertinent portions of the letter of 2/29/1956 are quoted as follows: "In the historical-biographical dictionary of Switzerland, the coat-of-arms Oberholzer is described as follows: 'Obliquely divided, above of red with a half moon and two stars, below of silver with two green oaks.' This emblazoning is not to be described as very happy, since it leaves in respect of the anangement of the half moon and the stars, as well as of both oaks, considerable freedom to the designer.

With the help of Ron Moore and others, Jan and Jake Mauck organized and led an inspirational church service in the old Mock Meeting House. The setting was so beautiful and serene - truly a place filled with God's Holy Spirit. Our speakers, Fred Ickes, Lois Byrum and Annette K.

I especially want to thank our editor, Barbara Dittig and her husband, Jim Dittig for making it all work so smoothly.

  • An Historical Analysis of Five Women Missionaries and Their Encounters with the Nyungar People of South-West Australia
    “Was it worthwhile?” An historical analysis of five women missionaries and their encounters with the Nyungar people of south-west Australia. Alison Longworth B.Ed B.D(Hons) M.A in Theology This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University, 2005. I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not been previously submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. ----------------------------------- Alison Longworth ii Abstract Was it worthwhile? The thesis asks this question of the life and work of female faith missionaries who served in Western Australia with the Australian Aborigines’ Mission and/or the United Aborigines’ Mission, during the twentieth century. In 1902, the New South Wales Aborigines’ Mission adopted faith mission principles based on those of the China Inland Mission founded in 1865. The mission expanded into Western Australia in 1908 and changed its name to the Australian Aborigines’ Mission. From 1929, it was known as the United Aborigines’ Mission. The research began with a historiography of the China Inland Mission and the United Aborigines’ Mission and its antecedents. The analysis of the principles of these two missions identified that some characteristics of a faith mission were present in the New South Wales Aborigines’ Mission from the beginning and others were never adopted. It established that from 1902, the New South Wales Aborigines’ Mission upheld the faith principles of trusting God to provide physical needs, not soliciting for funds and not entering into debt. Because most faith missionaries were female, the historiography proceeded to examine texts on women missionaries, including recent work by Australian writers.
