'' - ' " ' ' JThe water problems of the Basin district are of much concern to the people In the district and no one has gone Into the subject more exhaust-ively than has Governor Dern. Perhups no subject fas been dis-cussed so ardently and thoroughly in the States concerned, Utah, Colora-do, Arizona and California, as has this one for the past three years. This discussion has also been going on in the Senate and Congress, but up to the present time no satisfac-tory agreement has been reached. The Governor is one of the optimists in this case and is of tho opinion that with the aid of those broadmind-e-men who are working conscienti-ously for an equitable distribution of the Basin waters, the problem will be solved. MVdc tor the occasion will be furn-ished" by the Klwanls Quartette and the Syncopating Sailors. Welcome, Governor. PROGRESS III SCIENGE A very important and intensely in-teresting branch of the Bingham Hlgr School is tho Science Department. The writer visited the department of Chemistry lust week and the lmpres-tdou- a gained were most favorable. In the first place the school Is equip-ped with the most modern appliances known. No school or college in the State is better or more conveniently arranged or better supplied with test making apparatus than is this Insti-tution. A large class of youn,? nun and young women were engaged in making various tests, noting the re-action of various substances under heat of the acetylene torch or from contact with some chemical, Five years ajgo this department was organized under the supervision of Trof. J. Byron Birch with an enroll-ment of 18 pupils, with vry meagre equipment and a poorly arranged la-boratory. This department has con- - stantly attracted more and more at-tention and improvements have been made until today, with an enrollmout of 45 students who are being taught o' emlstry, this department Is a pride of the institution. This phenomenal growth Is duo In a great measure to the exceptional ability and personal-ity of l'rof. Birch who holds decrees both as Bachelor of Science and Mas-ter of Arts. When Fufliclent tmplls rec Ive t' e preparatory courses It Is the dcbirc of both Principal Atkin and Mr. Birch to add Metallurgy, Geology, so-lid Geometry and other courses which will better prepare the students for life work In a mining camp. SELLING SERVICE - iii . '' The newspaper in the small town. ' Js on a thoroughly sound foundation, when it has reached the point of be-ing accepted on a business basis as an Institution which gives value in return for all it receive. Before this situation is reached it Is necessary to eliminate any idea In the minds of advertisers or subscribers that their support Is In the nature of a dona-tion; something to "help along," a town enterprise. No subscription and no advertising patronage should ever be regarded as-- donation. Every newspaper, how-ever small It may be, contains some-- f Ing in the way of Information or service that Is worth more to the sub-scriber than the cost of his subscrip-tion. Every intelligent advertise-ment Is worth more than its coBt to the advertiser, even though f.e can-not trace a single sale to it. Ills re-turns come through publicity. With-out publicity his business cannot en-dure. Merchants who advertise stay in business and grow. Those who do not advertise sell out or go to the ' wall. Even where the advertiser Is not especially skillful he progresses faster than the Poor advertising Is better than no advert-ising. The idea In all publicity Is to make an Impression on the public mind. A slight impreslon Is better than none at all. One can appreciate the spirit of a citizen W o subscribes nr' buys ad-vertising space ..."iu'at 0-- .help the newspaper." lie means., weJJ even though his attitude hurt tho publish, er's pride. It required ratlence to educate flueh people to' the fact that tjielr support of the newspaper and on a business basis helps the newspaper, but helps them more. It Is necessary to keep pro-pounding tho Idea, from as many dif-ferent angles as. possible, that the newspaper renders service for every dollar It receives service which Is jiot available from any other source. In hundreds of places throughout tho country. People subscribe voluut- - arily to their newspapers because " they need them. Advertisers buy space because they realize they must have It. Those newspapers attained their position because their publish-ers sold service and not sentiment. BUNK Extra, Extra "Jaded and burned out Goliath beaten by David," or, pardon us was It "Jaded and Burned Out Saints beaten by Bingham?" To say the least this expression conveys somewhat the trend of thought given out by one of the prominent Salt Lake City Dailies in describing the game in which the miners outclassed, out-passe- d, outscored, and outfought one of the "favorites" of the tournament, tho L. D. S. team. This selfsame article failed how-ever to mention the fact that during the regular schedule preceding the tournament the Bingham team play-ed more games, travelled farther, played better opponents In Just as short a tljne as did the Saints. The story also failed to mention the fact that during the last quarter of the game the Miners were playing the Saints with two substitutes as Her-vlll- a and Grant were ejected from the game on personals. The story failed to relate that the L. D. 8. team was supposedly far more experienced than Bingham, and that the physical size of the two teams was vastly varied, the Saints being by far the larger team. Bingham has most certainly no alibi to offer for their showing In the state classic and the Dixie Fliers stat-ed here on Monday that the Miners were the best aggregation they had yet played this season, and that they had been victorious In all of their games this year. Dixie was in all probability a superior team to Bing-ham, however had the local boys converted a fair percentage of their foul tries In the Dixie game, the state of Utah would have proudly sent the Miners to Chicago. Enough of history. All that we want for Bingham is a "square deal" and by this we mean exactly square. We do not offer ail-b- is and we do not wish to accept any. The only thing that was burned in the Blngham-Sai- nt game was the floor over which the Miners travelled to the hoop. 1 BINGHAM WINS ' THIRD PLACE The Blue and White clad hoopsters J of the Bingham High School won third place in the Salt Lake City I state basketball classic conceded Sa turday evening in the Deseret Gym-nasium. The boys from Bingham won v three of the four games in the tour- - nament and capped off a fine per-formance by handing the L. D. S. a , real touncing in the final night of Bingham disposed of Logan In easy fashion, whipped Sprlngville In a re-al buttle and then lost to the state championship Dixie five by the nar-row margin of four points. In the Dixie game the much smaller Bing-ham boys outplayed Dixie in every department but that of shooting the bal through the hoop and the local team had a bad case of offnlght in this department of the game. When the L, D. S. and Bingham lined up for the final night the crowd was obout evenly divided, although Bingham was not the favorite to cop the contest by the betting sharps. Hervllla Grant and Dahlstrom soon changed the betting odds and upset all of the wised dope by teaming around the much lager Saint team and taking the long end of the first two periods in easy and impressive ' fashion. ' I When the teams came back for thej second half the Saints made a des-- j perate rally which the diminutive J Bingham guards attempted to stay. Each time however that the Saints 1 scored a basket or a foul pitch the V boys from Bingham went right back and counted also. In the final Quarter both Grant and Hervilla were put out of the game on personal fouls. Then came Tommy's subs to finish the contest with the highly touted L. D. S. Mel-ic- h was reinserted Into the game In forward position and the boys from Bingham battled their way to victory in the most Impressive and spectacu- - lar game of the final night's play. Bingham furnished about all of tho real thrills of the tournament. GRANT, HERVILLA, DAHLSTROM HONORED. Grant and Hervilla, forwards, were given honorable mention by the offi-cials In selecting all state material and Dahlstrom was given a guard place on the second team. Well might Bingham have received the loving cup which was presented to Dixie for " team cooperation. At no time did any team in the classic surpass the Bingham team in the factor of team-work. Handicapped considerably in size the Blue and White boys conein-- , ually teamed better and outsmarted, every contestant with which they played. As long as the state tourna-ment can boast each year of a team from the Bingham High thrills gal-ore are assured. TRAP SHOOTING. Some very crernacie snooting wu engaged in at the traps here Sunday.
