"It's important to start early in making our young folks-fu- ture fish and gun club members aware of the problems which go of conservation along with our hunting and fishing," Mr. Stoker said. Young boys and girls interested in joining the club may obtain membership cards from Babe Ruth, Bill Nichols, Ray Barnes, Roy Young, Bert or any other member of the club, and they will be notified of all metings. In the other action, Ray Barnes pointed out that small trees are starting to grow again in the Cedar Cove area, which was "brushed" and a few years ago. He stated that Thel Riley, County Conservation Officer for the Fish and Game Department, had advised that it cost "quite a sum" to remove the trees on the North Beaver Bench area which had been reseeded. Mr. Barnes suggested that the Milford Wildlifers and Boy a Scout leaders project, offering Boy Scouts an opportunity to learn something about conservation while cutting these trees, and at the same time earn Conservation Merit Badges in their Scout troops. A hamburger and pop lunch will be spread for the Scouts each time they go to Cedar Cove to cut trees. k Ray Barnes and Dick of the LDS troops, and Al Williams, leader of the Methodist Church sponsored troop, were named organizers of the project. The club also named Wes Bolton and Babe Ruth as delegates to the Utah Wildlife Convention, scheduled for April 10 and 11 at the Ramada Inn in Salt Lake. 6 Mr. and Mrs. Harry Thompson with the Sl2 lb rainbow "they caught at Minersville Reservoir CITY-WID- CLEANUP; E UNHAPPY OVER HIGHWAY DETOUR Enjoying turkey dinner with the Milford Lions Wednesday were four members of the Cedar City Lions Club, here to promote the state convention to be held in the Iron City in June, and seeking advertising support for their convention program. The local Lions subscribed to a quarter page of the convention booklet. Members were unhappy with the condition of the Milford to Minersville road, now under construction, and urged that steps be taken to induce the contractor, or the State Road Commission, to construct a "decent" detour around the construction. The "Flat road" to Minersville, being used by a majority of the local residents, is little better than the mucky highway during the current wet weather. One Lion suggested that a sign be placed at the turnoff on High91 motorists way advising that travel over the road is "not recommended" during the construction period. Dr. D. A. Symond, Community Betterment chairman, was named to head a committee to sparkplug a Milford City clean up drive. Details and special dates will be announced soon.

Editorial KEEP POLITICS OUT OF HEALTH MATTERS There have been repeated efforts on the part of some Miifprd members of the Beaver County Democrat Central Committee to pressure the Beaver County Commission into changing the county health officer, removing Dr, D. A Symond and naming Dr. E. N Davie. At the March meeting of the county commission, a motion by Howard Pryor that Dr. Symond be continued jn the position was concurred in by Hy Lee, Later, Republican Commissioner Eugene Mayer moved that the action be rescinded and the matter be referred to the Central Committee. Commissioner County Democrat Lee concurred, carrying the motion. The Beaver County News feels that no political ganization. Democrat or Republican, should have a voice in mming a county health officer. The County Commissi', ners, without pressure, should maktt the selection on the basis of ability, impartiality, and dedication of those being considered. The position of countv health officer should not be a "political plum." or- Incidentally, the present county health officer, Dr. D. A.

At a special meeting in Minersville last Saturday evening, called to "decide whether to turn over to Ray Kizer minutes of previous meetings," the group learned the county attorney had advised that minutes of any meeting must be made available to any resident of the area. Guests at the County Central Committee meeting were Mrs. Eugene Davie and Eugene Mayer. After considerable discussion, action of the meeting on March 8, at which Don Brink-erhowas recommended as manager at Beaver and Dan Ferguson at Milford, was sustained. The minutes of the March 8 to meeting were corrected show that a motion by Hy Tolley instructing the secretary to write the State Liquor Commission advising them of the two recommendations, had been approved. The letter written recommended only Brinkerhoff: about a week later a letter was mailed to the liquor commission advising that Dan Ferguson had also been approved at the meeting but his approval had been challenged and another meeting was to be held to discuss the recommendation. The New was advised that Tuesday of this week the liquor commission was advised without strings that the Beaver County Democratic Central Committee recommended Dan Ferguson for the Milford appointment. At last Saturday's meeting a letter was read from Governor Rampton stating he wished to appoint Gale Banks as State Representative to fill he unexpired term of Jack and asking the Central Committee's approval. Dr. E. N. Davie moved that the Central Committee recommend Roy Young for the appointment and Roy Young moved that Dr. Davie be recommended. After discussion it was agreed that the committee should abide by the governor's wishes.

Loosle Student of the Sixth Grade, Milford Elementary School, recently enjoyed an educational tour of the Milford State Bank, with Cashier John H. Davis escorting them on the tour. They visited the board oi room and while directors' there asked many Questions about the bank and the system of banking. The vault was the next place of interest the students visited. They learned that the vault lock is set by three clocks and will open only at certain times. They learned what the safety deposit boxes were used for and that it took two keys to open them. While in the vault Mr. Davis showed the students the device by which fresh air can be let in in case of an emerThe intercom system gency. was also demonstrated, to show students that a person who was locked Inside the vault could talk to those outside. The students watched the operation of posting checks and learned that those working with checks and checking accounts, memorize the signature of every person who opens an account. Mr. Davis showed the students the microfilm machine and explained that all checks and important papers are filmed so they can be kept on record as having gone through the bank. The storage vaults where all the bank supplies are kept was also visited. Some of the questions the students asked concerned the history of the bank, its branch, and the amount of assets it holds. Many terms that apply to the study of economics, such as interest, principal, loan, mortgage, insurance, sedividend, curity, investment, etc., were discussed at the bank and also in the classroom.

D. Osborn of the Forest Service. The precipitation for the month was a little better than expected, but we're still below par. At Merchant Valley there was 31.7 inches of snow containing 9.1 inches of water, compared to 19 inches of snow containing 4.6 inches of water last year at this time. The 1948-196- 2 average water con- tent for about April 1 on this course is 10.8, so this course is about 84 of average, but of last year. almost 200 At Otter Lake they measured 58 inches of snow containing 16.2 inches of water. Last year there was only 38 inches of snow containing 8.7 inches of water. The April 1 average water content for this course is 16.2, so we are just average at Otter Lake. At Big Flat there was 66.7 inches of snow containing 18.7 inches of water. Last year about this time there was 40 inches of snow containing 9.6 2 inches of water. The average water content for April 1 is 19 7, so we are about 95 of average at Big Flat. The Big Flat rain gauge showed a pickup of 4.4 inches for the month of March. Even though precipitation to date is below average, it's still a much brighter water year picture than we've had for several years. If we can get average precipitation from now on we should have a fairly good water yaar. 1948-196- QUARTERLY CONFERENCE SET FOR APRIL 18 Two prominent leaders of the LDS Church from Salt Lake will be featured speakers at the Quarterly Conference of Beaver Stake, Saturday and Sunday, April 17 and 18, in Beaver.
