The services were conducted by First Counselor John O. Garfield. The services were impressive and was the occasion for many beautiful tributes to the deceased. The first speaker was W. P. Cook, elder in the Presbyterian church, who took for his text, the promise of Christ: "Be thou faithful unto Death, and I will give thee a crown of life," Mr. Cook and his wife also rendered the beautiful duet, "List to the Voice." G. G. Sweeten of Garland, rendered a touching solo on the cornet. The invocation was delivered by D. G. Nelson, of Snowville and the benediction by Bishop Cottom, of Snowville.

Mrs. Mary B Knutson by Charles $.FGnnicon. W:ads-wort- h per-tainin- Funeral Services For IustThin KIN Thanks to the untiring and efficient efforts of W. W. Wadsworth the city of Tremonton has a flag pole, of which any city may be proud. Years ago fifty dollars was appropriated with which to purchase a flag pole. The money has laid in the bank unused until the advent of the Lions C!r.b when again the matter was taken up and additional money appropriated for the pole. Today in the center of the city park there stands an eighty-foo- t pole capped with a eighteen inch brass ball with the cables all in place for the raising and lowering of the flag. Mr. has spared no effort or work in securing and placing of this pole. The one cable is threaded up through the center of the pole with guide pullies, a feature not often seen on flag poles. A genuine wool flag, the best that can be bought, 12x18, will adorn the pole. Arrangements are now being made for fitting ceremonies in the formal raising of the flag on June 14th, which is national flag day. All who have had anything to do with the securing and placing of this pole, and especially Mr. Wadsworth, should be highly complimented on the efficient manner in which it has been stake conference Saturday and Sunday, commencing Saturday evening, with a general priesthood meeting and ending with a session of the M. I. A. meeting Sunday evening, was an unusual one in both attendance and interest. Rulon S. Wells, of the first council of seventies, represented the general authorities of the church and was the principal speaker at all sessions of the conference. Many advancements in the priesthood were made, those to the quorum which Elder Wells represented were set apart by him. The themes of the conference were interesting and timely and were enjoyed by all who attended. A special feature of the conference was the presence of the Swanee Singers, Salt Lake's male chorus of fifty voices. This chorus furnished the opening and closing numbers of the afternoon session and furnished the entire program in the evening. ROUGH There fame came before them and in the evening performance more than 1100 people crowded into the tabernacle to hear them. Their singing was an inspiration and a delight to all. 12-- 3 Miss Mary Pierce and Miss Brewer-to- n solo numbers and obligate sang parts to the chorus. Ernest R.

MAY 15, 1930. 5 - " x1 j- ht Beautiful Services Mark Final Tribute To Good And Useful Citizen Hundreds of friends, that completely filled the lower floor of the stake tabernacle, with many in the gallery, assembled to pay their love and esteem to the memory of Charles Munns, former bishop of the Garland ward, who died Sunday evening at 9:30, at the Garland hospital, follow- ing an operation for appendicitis, a weak heart given as the cause of his death. The services were in charge of Bishop W. W. Richards. The opening prayer was offered by A. R. Capener and the benediction by D. E. Manning. The speakers incuded Oluf Johnson, A. M. Porter and Peter Boss, these men having been counselors to Bishop Munns during the time he served as bishop, which was nearly ten years; Alfred Fishburn, of Brigham City, a missionary companion of Mr. Munns; Christian Jensen, of Ogden, former seminary teacher of the Bear River Seminary; Secretary of State M. H. Welling and former president of the stake; President C. E. Smith and Bishop W. W. Richards. Glowing tributes were paid to the life of Bishop Munns, both as a bishop and as a citizen; always a leader in the community in which he lived; honest and full of integrity.

County Agricultural Agent : TO BE REMOVED - Roof Sign to be Painted For Guidance Of Aviators Thinning of beets is on and every farmer should take time to check on the kind of work, his thinners are doing. Where a full stand of beets are on the field the thinner should leave between 90 and 100 beets per 100 ft. of row. We are reliably informed that many fields were harvested last fall with only 65 beets in 100 If ft, a loss of 30 beets per 100IVaft. lbs. each missing beet weighed there was a loss in weight of beets per 100 ft of 45 Ibsi and in figuring this into an acre there was a shortage of 2.85 tons per acre at $7.00 per ton equal a loss of $19.95 per acre. This loss can not always be charged to the thinners because some cultivator operators guide the cultivator so poorly that many places in the fields beets are cut out in this manner reduce the tonnage. Another important thought at thinning time is the selection of the larger beets. A few farmers have taken pains to leave the large beets in certain rows without removing the soil from around the beets and in adjourning rows taken pains to have the runt beets left and removing the soil next to the beet, so that about one inch of the beet is exposed to the hot sun, and at harvest time the two methods of beet thinning were separately hauled and weighed and when computed into an acre found a difference of 13 to 19 tones per acre, on the two extremes. A farmers time spent with his thinners pays bigger returns than any other beet culture. Thinners don't wilfully destroy the beet crop but in their anxiety for a big day's work they space too far and in many instances leave the small single beet instead of a larger beet. There are instances where the farmer does such poor cultivating bv leaving as much as six inches uncultivated adjourning the beet row so that the thinner has too wide a space from which to cut out the surplus beets and weeds, thereby irritating the composure of the thinner to retaliate by doing poor work in return.

It is estimated that ten million Americans will wear the little red poppy of France and Flanders this year in memory of the men who gave their lives in; the World War. Although the sale of these poppies has been a nation-wid- e event each year since 1921 the people of Garland and Tremonton have not been asked to participate in the event, due mainly to the fact that no American Legion Post or. American Auxiliary Unit Legion exists in these communities, and it is that these organizations through Poppy Day is sponsored. This year, however the nearest Post and Unit, which happens to be located in Brigham, are planning to send a delegation of Auxiliary ladies to Garland and Tremonton on Poppy Day with the idea of selling as many poppies as possible. Mrs. J. Wesley Horsley will act as chairman of the group coming to Garland and Mrs. Clyde B. Stratford will be chairman of the group coming to Tremonton. The sale of poppies this year will represent the work of the disabled and men in thirty-eighospitals and workshops stretching from Maine to California and from These disWashington to Florida. abled veterans are paid one cent each for the poppies they make for the American Legion Auxiliary, lhe Auxiliary furnishes the material and takes charge of the distribution. For many of the men employed, the poppy money is the first money they have been able to earn since the War. No sendee work accomplished with the profits from the poppy sale can excel this service to the disabled, which gives them an opportunity to en.ioy the strengthening and encouraging experience of agin taking their places among the wage earners. Each Unit in the Auxiliary sends to national headquarters at Cleveland for the number of poppies they desire to sell,-anthese are sold on the streets (Continued on page five.) mm fe'-lin- h ; t 7 D-facto- |
