This fashionable feature about the vaccination fads of Paris was found in a 1901 issue of the Grand Valley Times Newspaper (now the @moabtimes ). Many Utahns in 1901 had a very poor opinion of vaccinations. It makes me wonder who the audience for this particular story could be?

Today the western islands of the Great Salt Lake are still home to thousands of nesting pelicans. But the rapidly receding lake continues to threaten the vitality of their habitat. Consider this your PSA to #slowtheflow. #greatsaltlake #utpol #utah #utahhistory #slc

@batwithglasses Can someone start a petition to have Tooele City recreate this float for next year’s parade?

[UtahRecorded @UtahRecorded]
