The clubs strongly urge those who have to do with the hiring of this labor that the above policy be followed. Visits On Coast Marshall William Foxley and wife returned Friday afternoon from' an extended trip to the coast, visiting the important cities and sights In their travels, which lasted ten days. Mr. and Mrs. Foxley report a very pleasant trip. Keith Rhodes, Future Farmer of the Bear River High School, speaking on "What the Future Farmer Organization may mean to American Agriculture" won the Western Regional contest for Future Farmers of America. comprising of the 11 Western states, at the Boise High School, Tuesday night. Mr. Rhodes will now go to the National Finatt, to be held at Kansas City next fall as the winner from the 11 Western states division. Mr. Rhodes represerted the organization first at Brigham City some time ago. Being successful there he entered the state contest at Provo and again was successful in winning first place. By this time Mr. Rhodes speech had attracted considerable attention and was given much publicity. A week ago the Lions Club of Tremonton had this young, orator as its guest speaker. At the conclusion of his address Lion President Spencer C. Mr. Taylor heartily congratulated Rhodes in behalf of the club and expressed the sincere wishes of the members for a continued success in the contest at Boise. It is a matter of pride and satisfaction that the patrons of the Bear River High School feel for the boys who have brought such outstanding and signal honors to their school. Keith has been active in his chapter and has an enviable record. This year he was president of the student body, receiv ed the American Legion award as the most outstanding boy in school ac-tivities and scholarship and was voted as the most popular boy in school. Excellence comes from labor, and it is evident that none of it has been spared by .Mr, Rhodes and other of his coleagues in their organization and throughout the school. All honor that has come to them is justly deserved and should be shared with their instructor, Mark Nichols, who has been unusually successful in accomplishing outstanding things in the organization over which he is instructor. Every resident of the Bear River Valley will send along with Mr. Rhodes their best wishes for a successful termination of his already glowing success in the national contest finals. Tin's contest is sponsored by Senator Capper, of Kansas City, each year as a stimulus to better leadership among the members of the National Future Farmers organization, Mr. Rhodes delivered his oration over station KIDO, Boise, last night The Utah party that went to Boise with Mr. Rhodes included L. R. Humphries, state supervisor of Agricultural Education! Mark Nichols, Bear River High School agricultural instructor; Elmer Ward, president of the Utah Association of Future Farmers of America and Alva Rhodes, his father and a prominent stock raiser of the valley.

He will face a jury in the District Court on Saturday, May 23. Lewis Ipsen was bound over to the District Court on the charge of being a persistent violator of the prohibition law where his case now stands. He is alleged to have hired a certain person to dispose of certain liquors and of having plead guilty to the same offense some years ago. Theodore O. Freeze of Brigham was bound over to the District Court when he waived his preliminary hearing some days ago on a charge of Prior to that time he faced a trial on the charge of fornication, but was discharged on a technical matter and the other charge preferred. John Hamilton and Howard Aubum are awaiting a retrial on a charge of attempting to steal certain gasoline from state road equipment along the highway south of Brigham on May 14. The first trial resulted in a hung jury. Mr. Steve Zundel, watchman for the road commission, is alleged to have apprehended the boys just as they set out to take the gasoline from certain tanks. During the past week court hearings have been held against the following persons, charged with being deserters of their wives and children: Clifford M.

Rites Held for Small Boy of Bear River City Funeral services were held Sunday Bear River City for Ellis Anderson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Alvis Anderson, of Bear River City. The services were in charge of Bishop Jensen. The speakers were C. C. Johnson, E. 0. Stenquist, Le Roy Smith, of Cleveland, Idaho; Bishop Hammond, of Roy Utah and Bishop Jensen. The interment was made in the Bear River City Cemetery. The boy died following an accident, which happened Friday morning, when he and his cousin, Norman Anderson, were playing on the Bear River bridge with their dog. According to reports Mark Simonsen, rural mail carrier, was driving East across the bridge. The dog darted in front of the car and was struck throwing the car out of control of- the driver, veering the car into the two boys, injuring Norman and knocking Ellis into the river. The body was immediately recovered but life was extinct, the impact evidently having caused the death of the child. Witnesses to the sad accident gave it as their opinion that the accident was purely accidental and that no blame should be attached to the driv- er. Ellis is survived by his parents, one sister, Reva May and two brothers, Nathan and Hartley, all of Bear River y.

Lions and business men took advantage of the situation and tried to regain some of the avoirdupois lost during the past year by reason of hard times and because many husbands are finding it necessary to get their own meals, The following musical program was carried out during the luncheon: Several song and guitar numbers by Howard Wadsworth; baritone solos ' by Austin Seager accompanied by Norma Anderson of El wood and a violin sola by Dr. D.

Memorial Poppy Sale To be Sat., May 23rd More than 50 young women of Box Elder County will assist in the memorial poppy sale of the American Legion Auxiliary, Saturday, May 23, according to Mrs. Lewis Jones, general chairman of the sale. The corps of workers who will offer the bright red poppies to the people of Box Elder County to be worn in honor of the World War dead has been completely organized by Mrs. Jones and will be ready to go on the streets with the flowers early on the morning of poppy day. .Every worker will be a volunteer, donating her services to help make Poppy Day a success. The general direction of the sale will be in charge of Mrs. Jones. She will be assisted by a corps of district chairmen, who will have charge of the sale in the different districts of the county, and by several special chairmen who will handle other parts of the work of the sale. Each of the chairmen will have active committees to aid them in their work. "A vast amount of devoted effort is necessary to make the poppy sale a success," said Mrs. Jones. "The sale is a big project which requires thorough organization and enthusiastic workers. First we must give everyone in the city an understanding of the significance of the poppy and of the vital work which the poppy, most accomplishes. Then we must make it pos Bible for everyone to secure a poppy on Poppy Day. The Auxiliary is deeply grateful to the many women who are giving so freely of their time and energy to this work." So.
