But a fast chauffeur ' driving Governor Blood's new Cadillac car, shot into the limits of Gunnison city the other day, doing 60 or better, which is a violation of the city's traffic rules. Gunnison's city marshal, L. L. Childs had his eagle eye open and hailed the driver. Governor Blood was taken before the Gunnison justice of the peace, and after explanations the chief executive was permitted to go his way. The governor explained that he had addressed an assemblage of Legionnaires at Logan Saturday morning. He also filled an engagement at Castle Gate and was headed for Nephi, where he was billed for an address before the meeting of the Associated Civic Clubs of the southern part of the state. ill JOURNAL SMDPPIB S EDITION OCLIVLRED FREE TO EVERY HOME THE 1:0 Yesterday's Payroll .argest in Several Years payroll issued in Helper by the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad company in several years was distributed to employes yesterday. The railroad is handling the heaviest volume of transcontinental traffic in many years, a considerable portion being attributable to the opening of the Dotsero Cutoff, the new-linreducing the distance between Helper and Denver by 175 miles, and permitting a reduction in running time for freight trains of several hours. Some of the increased traffic is due to better local conditions along the line of the railroad, metal mining, fruit growing and stock raising industries showing substantial improvement. The season of increased coal loadings is at hand, and this will result in additional railroad men being employed at Helper. LARGE INCRASE IN LOCAL RAILROAD FORCE Local forces have been augmented by additional employes in de clerical, yard and car departments to care for the increased business; a night yardmaster also has been employed. At the present time there are 17 freight crews working between Helper and Salt Lake; 18 freight crews between Helper and Grand Junction; 7 engine crews in helper service between Helper and Soldier Sunmit; 8 engine crews in passenger service, or a total of 205 trainmen and enginemen employed regularly in handling trains, all of whom lay over at Helper. While it is true that many of these men maintain homes in Salt Lake and Grand Junction, they necessarily must spend considerable money in Helper with hotels and restaurants during their layovers. Among the local business men, restaurant and hotel proprietors are particularly pleased over this increase in business. The increased traffic has resulted in return to work of all men employed in train service who have been cut off for several years, and most all of the men in engine service who have been cut off also have been returned to work. These men returning to work not only have been the means of increasing the payroll and money spent in Helper, but it has removed a number from the relief rolls. rjrj'HE largest HELPER TEAM HIGH Neighborliness IN LEAGUE STANDING water in the Helper mains Helper lost out on first half Sting Helper $23.98 each day. honors in the Central Utah league lowing turning of a surplus Sunday when they dropped the pice water into Helper mains third and decisive game of the a dunner to Helper from playoff to Dividend to Payson by Price city corporation billing a 3 count.

Helper Kiwanians gleefully disported themselves at a picnic Dutch lunch held last evening at City Park. A feature of the event was a melodramatic theapian production suitably entitled "The Shot Gun Wedding." Bill White took the part of the handsome, bewitching bridegroom (by necessity, not by choice), and Dr. Joe Dalpiaz was the wronged maiden. The antics in donning apparel for the happy event had Kiwanians and Kiwanianesses convulsed with laughter. Another stunt, entitled "Our Nell Crossing the Plains," directed by Mrs. Bert Bunnel and carried out in pantomime, was well received by those present. Plenty of amusement was furnished during the remainder of the evening by novelty features, race and a paper race, in which the contestants held papers on the soles of their feet and navigated a specified distance. bride-to-be- 's 6-- u local city authorities.

Ohio, Dollar Dusters Done Proved It Following a challenge issued last Monday night the Stamp Lickers and the Dollar Dusters played a tough game Wednesday, with the bankers again emerging winners from the melee with a 6 count. The Dollar Dusters are winners of the league championship, second half. A full team of Stampers and one substitute showed up, while the Bankers were forced to use four substitutes. Dalpiaz and Pascuzzi were batteries for the winners, with Martell, Wildcat Wahl and duOssana doing the pitch-catc- h ties for the Stampers. Wahl went into the box in the fourth, after Martell had succeeded in walking several men. The Dusters had tough luck with men dying on bases, from one to three being left holding the bag when the third out was made.

Wardell announces that the teaching staff Is looking froward to a very suc- Principal cessful year and that organization of the ninth and tenth grades, which will continue to be a part of the Helper schol, will be much better organized. Adjuslmen Theory Mr. Wardell returned from Chicago the first part of the week where he took a ten week course at the University of Chicago in Principles of Secondary Education and Practice of Teaching under Dr. H. M. Morrison who is generally considered to have influenced education more than any other man of his time. Dr. Morrison is one of the country's most widely known educators and is connected with the University of Chicago. Organization of the school this year, according to Mr. Wardell, will follow the adjustment theory in education which has for its basis the learning unit doctrine. The adjustment theory works on the principle that each student must master one particular subdivision of a course before the class continues on to the next project. Students who grasp the subject at hand more rapidly than their fellows will be given ample opportunity to expand their knowledge on the subject and will be required to aid their slower classmates. The adjustment theory is a new phase in education and insures complete mastery of subjects by every student in the class. Mr. hitting. Wardell is preparing a series of Robert Ossana returned Wednes- articles, which will be published in The Journal, dealing with the new day from a trip to Chicago and other points, driving theory. a new car which he purchased in Miss Elizabeth Clark was a Flint, Michigan.
