As he ascends he will enter a varitablfl ocean of countless, flowers, whose scarlet, blue, gold and crimson render miles of pure air redolent with the richest of perfumes. . Farther up, on either side, is the great strata of rock, beautifully decorated with colored moss and stately pines, .... As he advances he finds himself above the timberline and at the base of the greatIacier, the sight of which on ah after--" noon in is indeed, refreshing. At Lake Emeral he will find a delightful resting place before he attempts the final climb to the summit. The great glacier furnishes a vari table playground for the youthful climber and challenges the most sturdy one among them. , And when the movie man does this scene justice he may find that he has a rich comedy, and perchance a tragic scene or two; for it is indeed amusing to watch the boys and girls adjust themselves at the summit' of the great glacier for a rapid decent of several hundred yards in the snow, the depth of which is unknown. Most of them make a splendid start and all a spectacular finish. If upon his arrival at the summit of the glacier this camera . man can reveal the beauties of Utah Valley as seen- - by the human eye he will have a feature in' photography unsur- passed in scenic beauty. So we believe that those who are contemplating exhibiting the wonders of this famous mountain to the American public will find that they have a picture equal to any of similar theme in all filmdom.

Beatty, of the State Board of will certainly give to the people of the state a more optimistic view on the influenza epidemic than has heretofore been maintained. This is especially true inasmuch as the cases where second attacks of the dreaded disease were so few while the total percentage of those having had the disease is so large. According to Dr. Beatty fully 75 per cent of the people of the state have now had the disease leaving only 25 per cent of the people who have not .yet suffered from that illness.- The percentage of those having had the disease is so large it is almost appalling when we think about it, but on . the other hand we can find rocfm for the utmost optimism and can now feel that our darkest days are over as far as the of the epidemic are concerned. We are also better prepared to fight against it in the future and may look for a much greater reduction in the death rate THE Tr- ? t Ji t ? y The health officers report indicates that the local healthboard gave a good account of itself during the epidemic and the local physicians did good work in reporting cases. In Salt Lake an entirely different condition prevailed but the death rate went up tremendously. i t i it i 0 REAL REASON IS NOT GIVEN plain on its face that the real reason for the break the President and his Secretary of State is not reason given in the letters.

Your attention was thep and i3 now directed to failing concrete roads right here at home in Utah between" Midvale and Ogden ; roads laid by State forces about four years ago, without skimping or skinr ing, and under the supervision of the Cement interests.

WAYNE COUNTY, MICHIGAN; A very few years ago Wayne Countys concrete roads were heralded as the acme of construction. Two or three years later the Brick Manufacturers said large sums were being spent for repairs and carried as new construction expense. Later Wayne County adopted twtr course construction the wearing surface to be of crushed stone instead of gravel aggregate. Still later comes the announcement that Wayne County has evolved a method of adding a 2 inch concrete wearing surface to its old concrete pavement. Why? Figure out for yourselves, MY.

Mr. Stillman is in part quoted as follow in the Deseret News of February 6th; Crushed stone as a base is being more widely used in California and Oregon than concrete; and with excellent results. The crushed rock' base is providing an excellent pavement wherever.it is being used. The bitulithic surfacing' of roads is meeting with favor on. the coast, and most of ithe concrete highways are receiving this treatment. Considerable bitulithic paving Js. now under way in this county. .
