Flashback Friday

A couple of weeks ago I was going through boxes and drawers with Mom and found an interesting article dated February 6, 1936 from the Utah State University Student Newpaper. Each week it has a column that spotlights students from the various high schools.

Trimmings From the Thumbnail

This week we are doing Granite high, from south Salt Lake, where men are football players and women eat like horses......

Margery Bruerton - timourous soph - features so small they scarcely cover her face - slim as a soda straw - or our chances for celestail glory - was once an "A" student - hangs her head in shame now - helps people in moments of distress - her first date broke down her resolve to hate men - still going with him - wants to be a textiles expert, but takes so much time to eat that she hasn't time to study - affectionate only when asleep.

A BIG Anniversary!

Somehow I missed it, but January 20th was Grandma Annie and Grandpa Gaius Call's 100th wedding anniversary. I wonder what they did to celebrate?

Grandpa was born in Chesterfield, Idaho. His parents wanted him to go to college in Logan but he didn't like it so he returned to Chesterfield and became a sheepherder.

Grandma was born in Salt Lake City but was orphaned when she was only nine years old. She lived for a while in Spring City (down by SaraJo) but eventually ended up in Chesterfield where her older brother, Carl, (you might have seen his peg leg in the Chesterfield museum) worked as a sheepherder. Grandpa was twenty-four, Grandma was seventeen. Grandpa's mother strongly oppossed the marriage, (she didn't want her son to marry a poor orphan of an emigrant family) so they eloped to Pocatello on January 20, 1909. They were married for thirty-four years and had six children.
