Junior Chamber of Commerce luncheon and meeting held Tuesday, February 15, at the Midland Hotel Cafe. Some time ago, this or ganization proferred to take charge of this worthwhile enterprise if the city would furnish the equipment. Captain Piercy Battalion, chief, and Mr. Shupe, of the Salt Lake City Fire Department; Dan Peterson, past chief of the Brigham Fire Depart ment and a member of the executive committee of the State Fireman's as sociation; Mr. Bott, assistant chief of Brigham City; Joseph I. Dewey, county commissioner, Ed Shaw, mayor of Tremonton and Rudy Miller, J. H. Fronk, Ervin stohl of the city council were guests of the club. Mr. Peterson spoke first and told of the importance of fire protection for the city and county. He said that Tremonton, the second largest city in the county, and the county was the only one in the state without some kind of fire protection. He stressed the importance of an adequate fire department for protection and reduction in fire insurance rates. Captain Piercy warned against1 cheap equipment and said that a 500 gallon pump on a three ton chassis was the smallest equipment advisable. He explained the necessity of organization and said it was essential that they hold regular meetings and drills not less than every two weeks. jHe further stated that the state Fireman's association would furnish an instructor without cost at any time. Motion pictures were shown on fire equipment and practice drills of the Salt Lake Fire Department.

WILD LIFE FEDERATION TALKS AT DEVERE WATKINS MEETING IS ORGANIZED 7 Proclamed Source Books Presented March To Local American National Wild Life Week Legion Post City Resolves For Strict Traffic Law Enforcement 20-2- At the February meeting of the Tremonton City Council, traffic regulations and hazards were discussed at length. A resolution was unanimously adopted providing that the city should fall in line with other cities of the State and attempt to reduce traffic accidents by strict enforcement of all traffic laws. Particular attention was called to the failure of motorists to make a stop before making a right hand turn against the red light located at the junction of Main and Tremont streets and that all trucks of one ton and over are prohibited by law from parking on main street. Parking lots are being provided by the city to take care of the congested parking conditions of Saturdays and other days, the lots will be marked and designated within the next few days. The public and truck drivers are asked to cooperate in the movement to make our city safer. Let "Safety First" be our watchword. R. W.

MARSHALL By Order of CITY 20-2- 8 vice-preside- Annual Poultry Mr. and Mrs. Wesley Leave Gephart sociation Dividends Ready for Members For East Saturday Ste-nquis- d; Lions Club Hears Educational Talk by State Commissioner Newell B. Cook, State Fish and Game commissioner, was the guest speaker at the Lion club luncheon held at the Midland Hotel Cafe Wednesday night. Mr. Cook gave his audience something to think about and when he was through there was no doubt in the minds of his hearers that he knew his job and was doing; it in grand style. Mr., Cook told of how our national resources, and particularly the game life of Utah, had been destroyed by the wasteful and short sighted policy of state officials ever since Utah became a state, by selling our landa which has resulted in the overgrazing, cutting of timbers, etc. which has destroyed the watersheds and now our state is reaping a harvest of water shortages and flood menaces. To overcome this condition, Mr. Cook told how he had recommended an increase In license fees for hunting and fishing and with the increased funds are beginning to purchase back landa for the preservation of our wild life and our natural resources. the tourist trade and that we must build our parka and develop our natural resources and make the state an inviting playground if we are to hold and increase this tourist trade. The speaker said that 44.000 hunted deer in Utah last year and that Utah had one of the best big game hunting areas in the country, but said something must be done to preserve It. We have 40 per cent of the grazing under the Grazing Act in this state alone, the speaker said, and the cattle and sheep are gradually push ing back and will eventually destroy the wild life. It is not the guns that are destroying our ducks and sage hens, but the destruction of our natural habitat is the thing that is killing the game birds. He told of the fish hatcheries, how they were being increased each year, and said at present they had to feed the fish 365 days a year to get one days spawn, which is very expensive. Mr. Cook had maps showing in detail the areas they proposed to purchase and the lands that should be reserved for wild life. The club members were deeply impressed with his intelligent and effective plea for the preservation of wild life in this state. Mr. Cook demonstrated that he is a public servant with rare ability, thoroughly conversant with every department and detail in his office and, more than that, with every foot of ground in the state, which makes him a valuable public servant indeed. His recommendations should receive the earnest support of every resident of this state. Accompanying Mr. Cook were Chief Deputy Tom Argyle and Deputy Game Warden Lewis Abbott. The program was under the direction of the fish and game committee of the club, with Bill Goldsberry and Kenneth Stevenson In charge. A lads, ies trio consisting of Mrs. L. J. Mrs. Kenneth Stevenson and Mrs. Robert Simonsen, accompanied by Maud Sorenson, rendered a beautiful vocal trial. Mrs. Cummings responded with a solo for an encore. There was a large membership present. Cum-ming- Marriage Announced "A gutxl man will as mm rim inU a firo at a quarrel."
