While she was gone, we enjoyed having Carol Johnson from ."Kelly Girls" filling in for Evelyn. She did a terrific job. It might look like we are playing musical chairs in the Utilities Office these days with all of the switching of desks, but it is just cross-training of jobs. There has been some definite changes, though. Libby Leopard is taking the position of Finance Secretary while Lucille leaves to wait for her new arrival. Genevieve Pierce took a day's vacation the 24th of September to go to Rawlins, where her brother was in the hospital after suffering from a heart attack. We are glad to report that he was sent home and is doing fine now. Below are a few jokes from Genevieve1s home town paper: There's a Texas town that is so rich, McDonald's serves caviarburgers. If water pollution had been as bad in Washington's time, he could've walked across the Delaware. Ever notice how getting to work on time puzzles your fellow workers? They don't know what to suspect you of. Elaine Stockton and spouse enjoyed a 12-day trip through the Black Hills, Yellowstone, Idaho and Utah, visiting relatives along the way. During a four-day stay in Salt Lake City they attended the Utah State Fair which included an outstanding program featuring country western singer Lynn Anderson. The fair exhibits were great -- including a 3,000 pound bull -- and that's a lot of bull! Barbara Taylor took her daughter to Disneyland on the 16th of September. They stayed four days, and whoever said Disneyland is for kids? Ruth spent a week vacation just "go o f i n g off." Genevieve took a week vacation at home and to help her folks celebrate their 63rd anniversary October 29. I bet that was some celebration! Did you ever notice -- just about the time you can make both ends meet, somebody moves the ends! *********************************************************************** �WHERE'S THORNTON GAP? WEST OF THORNTON RIVER!! {' - Across Route 211, through the beautiful Shenandoah National Park, in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, flows the Thornton River. A few miles west is Thornton Gap at which several Revolutionary War battles were fought. These were but two of the many interesting and exciting places we visited on our Bicentennial vacation. One of the highlights of our trip was a V.I.P. tour of the White House in Washington D.C. The history behind the location, use and decor of the various rooms was very intriguing. Our trip also included visits to nine New England and East Coast states where we were guests of several local Bicentennial committees. Our hosts treated us like royalty with dinners, band concerts, parades (one lasting four hours), and a variety of ceremonial programs. As guests of the Eastern States Exposition in Massachusetts, we enjoyed a full day of activity from viewing a chicken hatchery operation to an automobile daredevil show. One of the features of this fair is the Avenue of States, along which are six buildings from each of the New England states; Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine. Each building is a replica of each of the states' capitol buildings, in which are a variety of displays and demonstrations representative of their area. The fall colors were beginning their spectacular entry which added to the enjoyment of our travels, and Mother Nature cooperated with excellent weather throughout. Our daughter, Tracy, had the time of her life riding my sister's pony every chance she got and was spellbound by the sights in New York City. Sandwiched in between our travels, we attended my dad's retirement party and visited friends and relatives throughout the East Coast. It was a super vacation, but as always, it's good to be home.

It may be a temporary condition which can be alleviated by rest and mild analgesics, or a chronic condition which requires treatment by a physician and constant individual precautions. What are some of the causes of a backache? 1. Some people are simply born with deformities in the spinal area of the body which may cause back problems at an early age. For example, the deformaties may be in the form of a curvature in the spine or one leg being a little shorter than the other. One way to check if one leg is shorter than the other is to stand barefooted in front of a mirror. If one shoulder is lower than the other, a simple orthopedic device in a shoe may be all that is necessary to correct the problem. 2. Certain diseases of our bodies can contribute to back problems such as diabetes, intestinal disorders, kidney diseases and soforth. 3. As we grow older, certain degenerative changes occur in the trunk area of the body such as a weakening of the abdominal and back muscles, back ligaments and a narrowing of the discs between the vertebral bones. 4. Improper lifting methods can strain the back muscles, ligaments and/or squeeze the discs, causing them to slip, or rupture. While our back is designed to lift, like any piece of machinery it will break down or wear out prematurely without proper care. What can we do to reduce the probability of being stuck with a bad back? 1. We can keep in shape. This includes keeping our weight under control and an exercise program to keep the back and abdominal muscles in tone. A person with a potbelly is just asking for a back problem. As one physician has said, 11Pregnant women have back problems, but potbellies last longer than nine months." 2. Maintain good posture. If posture is good, sitting or standing, the weight the back must bear will be distributed evenly with all muscles, ligaments, discs doing their share. 3. Sleeping on a mattress that sags in the middle can cause back problems. That is the reason some physicians prescribe a plywood board between the box spring and mattress. Sleeping position also matters. Sleeping on one's abdomen is not good for your back, even on a firm mattress. 4. Proper lifting, shoveling, stepping, pushing and pulling techniques, whether done on or off the job, can do much to prevent back injuries. Here are some tips: 1. Don't lift a load that is too heavy or too large; get help. 2. Check the area for tripping or slipping hazards. 3. Avoid "L" position lifting. Use this procedure instead: Crouch down with one foot slightly forward, hold the object close to your body and use the leg muscles as much as possible. Perform the opposite maneuver when setting the object do½TI. 4. When lifting or shoveling, shift the position of your feet; don't twist your torso. 5. Avoid "bucket brigade" lifting of material such as salt sacks. 6. Never spread your feet beyond the width of your shoulders when lifting. The same distance applies, front to back, when pushing or pulling. 7. Be sure you have firm footing. Lug-soled shoes are recommended. 8. Use tools or mechanical equipment whenever possible to avoid manual lifting. 9. Step -- don't jump -- when alighting from equipment or going over an obstacle. 10. Take the long way round rather than climbing up or going down a steep embankment. *********************************************************************** �SERVICE AWARDS The employees' picnic in September was selected as an appropriate time for the presentation of service awards and recognition of employee achievements.

CO U N C •L ********~************************* �SEPTEMBER TRAVELOG: DEUTSH WITH A LITTLE DUTCH THROWN IN Well, friends and co-workers, here I am back in the groove and not too much the worse for wear. My trip was, as I mentioned once before, a little different than the trips I have taken before (to say the least). To get off to a good start, we heard at the last minute that instead of taking off at 10:30 in the evening, our flight was postponed to 4:30 the next morning. That meant that we had to check in at 2:30 A.M. Much as I love to fly, hanging around an airport from 11:00 P.M. to 4:30 A.M. is not my idea of "the greatest show on earth." We arrived in Frankfurt at 9:30 P.M. the next night (their time) expecting a short drive to my sister's apartment on the air base. No such luck. That short drive turned out to be more than 3-1/2 hours long. Between five animals (2 afghan hounds, 1 small poodle and 2 cats), four adults and one baby, we spentavery cozy two weeks with my sister (Lynne) and brotherin-law (John) sleeping on cots in the living room whenever we came back to the apartment to get things cleaned up and reorganized for our next venture. 'We took off for Amsterdam first and spent three days roaming the coast and seeing some of the small villages. They had some dandy buys in copper, a couple of which I could not resist. If I had not feared for my life, I would also have returned with a leather coat, vest and skirt. But I did, so I didn't! We went to the Rjikes Museum and saw Rembrandt's "Night Watch" which was badly carved up about two years ago by a lunatic. The painting takes up more room than the whole front wall of the City Hall building and is now encased behind glass. They say that this is for the curing process after it had been restored, but I'm willing to bet that it never comes out from behind that glass. We returned to the apartment and spent two days getting ready for our sojourn to Berlin. We washed clothes, vacuumed, etc., etc. (I told my sister that I could have stayed home and done that!) I even ended up retyping John's Flag Orders for the trip to Berlin since they had put my name down wrong on the orders, and everything has to be perfectly correct for entry into East Germany. Well, we were off and running by about 7:30 in the morning for our 12-hour drive. We hadn't been on the road for more than a couple of hours when my sister, who was driving, fell asleep at the wheel and caved in the whole left side of their B.M.W. from the front bumper to the back taillight. Believe me, when we hit that guard railing, we all woke up and did very little dozing from then on. We arrived at the border at about 8:00 in the evening and spent 30 minutes listening to a lecture on what to do and what not to do. Since John is military, things are a little different than they are for civilian travelers. The orders were explicit: Do not stop along the 104 mile route to West Berlin, do not pick up hitchhikers, do not towoc let yourself be towed, do not speak to the East Germans, show your papers only to the Russian guards, and only in a life and death situation do you ever leave the Autobahn. (They weren't kidding either since the roadside is mined all along the way.) You have between 2 and 3-1/2 hours to make the trip. If you arrive in less than 2 hours, you are subject to a ticket for speeding. If you arrive later than 3-1/2 hours, they come looking for you. West Berlin was gay and absolutely beautiful. The stores would rival New York any day. We took a tour of West Berlin and the nightclubs the first day. We went to the nightclub wh i.c h appeared in "Cab e r e t " where you can phone from one table to another or send notes through little cylinders from one table to another. (In answer to your unspoken question, no, no one jingled my phone nor did they even drop me a mash note. A rather dull people, those Germans!) (Cont'd on Next Page) �SEPTEMBER TRA VELOli lCont'd.J The second day we took a tour of East Berlin at 40 miles an hour, slowing down only in areas where they wanted you to get a good look. Although there seemed to be many stores, they all looked dull by comparison, and only a few stores had anyone in them. Those stores usually sold groceries, bakery goods, etc., and the people would be lined up out the front door. They are definitely trying to change their image and are encouraging tourism, even though it gives them great pleasure to assign you a number, make everyone get off the bus, and then check off your number as you get back on. John was the only one who didn't have to go through that as he was required to show his papers to Russians who manned a separate station. We also were not allowed to buy anything except postcards which were sold by the East German tour guide. The "wall" was quite a sight, although I just could not relate to the true meaning of it. In several places throughout West Berlin, shrines were erected over graves of people who had tried to make it to the West, but were unsuccessful in making it alive. On the third day we tromped through the Berlin Zoo which is the second largest in the world, next only to Balboa Zoo in San Diego, and visited the Dahlam Museum to see Rembrandt's ''The Man with the Golden Helmet.'' (Nothing like getting a little culture along the way.) We were all packed for the long journey back to the apartment so that we could clean up the mess and get ready for the last leg of the trip when we received a phone call from home saying that my aunt had passed away. That brought our trip to a sudden halt and we headed home one week early. I learned a lot about how to fend for myself, speak pidgeon Deutsch, and make a lot of sign language. (Try asking a druggist for a baby's pacifier when he doesn't speak English and your German is sorely lacking!) The trip was more hectic than most I've had, but I wouldn't trade the experience for anything in the world. Ask me if I'd do it again -- in a minute. I'm already planning for the next trip, whenever and wherever that may be. Sandra Kailey *********************************************************************** A NOTE OF THANKS On behalf of the Recreation Division, I would like to extend a special note of thanks to all of you that helped with the City Employees' Picnic.

A brochure showing the assortments available has been posted in the City Hall lunchroom. ********************************** EDUCATION? Fall is upon us and the mad treck to Red Rocks Campus has started again. This quarter there are four of us busily trying to get our Associate degrees in water and wastewater technology, since Jerry Bender graduated this summer. Throughout the past year many employees in water treatment have had some remarks on their evaluations about not having enough schooling or not trying to advance their knowledge of water treatment. But, I haven't seen any monetary advancement or even a pat on the back for those who have gone to school and achieved this added knowledge, plus an Associate degree to go along with this knowledge. Right now, we have two co ·-workers that have degrees; Jerry Bender and Dale McMaster. Hopefully, I'll pass my classes this quarter, so December 3 I can make it three. We hope in the future this hard work will pay off, now that the field is growing, because we are finding out that, in the City of Planned Progress, the degree isn't worth the paper it's printed on. Jack C. Crane P.S. Special thanks to Les and Simon for whipping our floors into shape for the open house. ********************************** TRICK OR TREAT? Come and find out on Saturday, October 30, at the North Valley Shopping Center. There will be "tricks" to start off the afternoon with Arch Jeffries and his magic show at 1: 30. "Ca t ha r i s " will spook all with a special skit. Wear your costumes, everyone, because there will be a costume parade with three age groups: 8 and under; 10-14; and 15 and over. A pumpkin carving contest will be at 3:00. Please bring your pumpkins already carved. Classes for the pumpkins are: the scariest; the prettiest; the most character; the smallest and the largest. Don't be discouraged, though, there are "treats," too. You can have your picture taken with the "Great Pumpkin," so bring your cameras. The Westminster Clown Corps will be painting faces, and there will be candy galore. At 4:00 Arch Jeffries will close the day with some more "tricks." More "tricks" are in store for you on Sunday, October 31. From 1:00 to 4:00 the Thornton Parks and Recreation Department will have a "House of Terror." Admission is only 25¢ fur this freaky adventure. ********************************** RECIPE FOR ELEPHANT STEW by Mother Blythe *Serves 3800* Take one elephant (medium size) and a large rabbit (optional). Salt and pepper. Cut the elephant into small bite-size pieces. This should take approximately two months. Add encugh brown gravy to cover. Cook over kerosene fire for about four weeks at 465°. This will serve 3800 people. If more are expected, two rabbits may be added, but do this only if necessary, as most people do not like to find hare in their stew. ********************************** �EMPLOYEES COMPLETE SAFETY TRA INING Six employees successfully completed the ten-hour supervisor's safety course conducted by the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment last September. Receiving certificates for the course were: Chester "Bud" Elliott III, JoVonne Fitzgerald, John Glendenning, Les Gray, Jim Lease and Art Pontow . • *********************************************************************** AND THE LORD SAID "LISTEN, NOAH. I've been fixin' to talk to you about that Ark I asked you and the boys to build. I thought it was all simple and uncomplicated after I got the building permit problem ironed out with the commissioners, but now some more hassles have come up. For one thing, I didn't know you were planning to build the Ark in your driveway where all the neighbors could see and complain about zoning ordinances and holler ''Well, there goes the neighborhood!" and all that static. Maybe I had forgotten about just how big 300 cubits would be. Of course, it didn't help anything when the building inspector came around and asked you how you were going to get such a big thing to the lake, and you told him you were going to float it out. Believe me, the Teamsters Union is upset with that situation. They already have pickets around the boat. The Environmental Protection Agency people were not at all happy with the impact statement you filed, indicating that the Ark would have no effect on the local environment. They did not seem to accept your judgment that it would make little difference on the environment, because it would be under a couple of hundred feet of water anyway. When the statement was reviewed by the OSHA boys, they became upset when they read about the plan to have on board a few hundred animals. They have filed a request for a position paper on plans to dispose of "natural and accumulated wastes" and have obtained a restraining order to prevent throwing any of the wastes overboard. They request that you anchor near a sanitary lagoon of adequate size to handle the problem. The Bureau of Animal Industry has requested that you have on board a registered veterinarian for every five pairs of animals and that vaccination papers be cleared before any animals are permitted on board. Now, the S.P.C.A. have their backs up and want a hearing to determine if these animals are in fact being exploited. They have demanded an inspection of the Ark and will insist that an officer of the Society be on board at all times during your projected voyage. Frankly, I had not planned on including any of them on my "endangered species 11 1 ist. Noah, I think things are getting out of hand. I have been holding back on the forty days and forty nights of rain, but I am about ready to cut loose and let 'er rip. You check with your boys, and if you can get through the pickets from the Teamsters, the Carpenters Union and the Mariners and Pilots Association, and see if the Ark is caulked up and ready to go. Have your folks pack a cold lunch, and I'll lead off with the lions in front, have the elephants guarding the rear, and we'll load up. I can hardly wait to bust out some heavy thunder and get the rain started.
