For the second Sunday In May of each year has been set aside as Mothers' day and ssMssmf despite an unfortunate ele-ment of commercialism that has be-come associated with It, the Idea back of it hus such a universal ap peal that few holidays or speclnl days are more generally and sincerely ob served by nil Americans of all races classes and creeds than Is Mother's day. The celebration of Mothers' day Is now twenty years old. It was origi-nated by Miss Anna Jarvls of I'hlla- - delphla In UNI and given official recognition in 1014 when President Wnndrnw Wilson Issued the first Mothers' duy proclamation. The glory and lietiuty of mother love and the consequent love for mother with all the Joy that It bring" is as old as the human race. There is an ancient Jewish saying that "God could not he everywhere and therefore He made mothers." Some of the greatest men of all ages, with the true humility of the great and with the breadth of vision which the true values of lift have acknowledged their great deb' to the guiding force that made their achievements possible Such an hc kiiowledgement has never found h finer expression than that attributed to one of the greatest men of all time. For It was Abraham Lincoln who Is said to have declared once: 'All that I am. or hote to be. I owe to in v Hticel mother" Anil hist year on Mothers' day a spu-mll- tribute was paid that moth er when, to quote from u news dis-patch sent throughout the Unltee I States from Lincoln City.

Mother love and love for mother have been the Inspiration for some of our best-know- n poets and have re-sulted In the writing of some of our best-know- n and best-love- d poems. Rudyard Kipling was writing for all of us and expressing a belief which all of us hold when he wrote MOTHER O' MINE If I were hanged on the highest hill Mother o' Mine, I know whose love would follow me till. Mother o' Mine. If 1 were drowned In the deepest aea. Mother o' Mine, I know whose tears would come down to me, Mother o' Mine, Mother o' Mine. If 1 were damned of body and soul I know whose prayers would make me whole. Mother o' Mine. Mother o' Mine. Louis Cntermeyer confessed for all of us the Inadequacy of mere words to express our debt to the women who gave ns birth when he wrote TO MY MOTHER Poor recompense to you were I to fill This page with rhyme and rhetoric to display Only the poet and thereby betray My earliest thoughts for mere poetic kill.

Her attention attracted by the shouts of ber husband, Mrs. Cloud leaped from her machine, spraining her ankle. As she approached Cloud's car she opened fire with a pistol on two of the men who started to run. She wounded one and he surrendered, as did two others. One escaped. , The 14 men in the lead machine, a specially constructed truck, and the three in Mrs. Cloud's car made no effort to escape.

VERNAL The severe frosts of the past two weeks have considerably dam-ige- d Ashley valley fruit trees. AprIco trees In some Instances were caught In full bloom and while other fruit trees were not In bloom, the buds were so far advanced that the frosts killed some of them. Very little plam-In- g of garden seeds has been done, as early ventures along these lines were nipped to complete destruction. MYTON Water has been turned In-to nearly all irrigating canals In this part of the Uintah basin, Including the Indian Irrigation project and the canal which furnishes water for tat South Myton bench. Under the super-vision of Lyle Young, additional work Is being done on the canal which car-ries water to Pleasant valley. This will prove very beneficial to the farm era, not only for irrigation, but also for household and stock purposes. VERNAL People of Uintah county are anlxously awaiting the expendi-tur-e of $2500 on the Vernal-Manil- a highway, promised by the state road appeal by a delegation from the Lions commission, in response to an urgent club and county farm bureau, which personally waited on the commission. DUCHESNE Federal aid project 110 A, Duchesne to Dead Ox flat, nine and one-hal- f miles, will soon be com-pleted. The first bridge on Strawberry river is completed, and the second bridge will be filled In this week. Graveling has been completed Into town. The contractors, A. 0. Young and company, expect to have the mala highway completed within two weeks, and will then begin the extension of the project through Duchesne to con-nect on with the Duchesne to Antelope. VERNAL Shipping wool by truck to Watson is under way from Ashley valley shearing plants, the loads aver-aging three tons each. The wool Is delivered at Watson to the narrow gauge Uintah railway for transport- - tlon to the main line at MacK, coio. Fleeces average eight pounds in weight, grease in the wool being some-what below normal due to the cold spring weather. MYTON Sheep shearing in this por-tion of the basin is progressing In a satisfactory manner. Several of the smaller sheepmen have finished. At the Antelope Sheep Shearing assocl-tlon'- s corral a full crew of about fifty shearers Is working and several trucks are hauling the clip of wool to Price. Recently, Moon Brothers began shear-ing at the corral of R. L. Hurd, in Myton. This work is being done with the use of clipping machines, by four men. SALT LAKE Over 100,000 tons of salt were produced last year In the so-lar evaporating plants of Utah. MYTON Recently a light rain fell In Myton and this portion of the basin, which will prove beneficial in laying the dust and starting vegetation. This Is the first rain in this vicinity for several weeks. VERNAL At a meeting held here, attended by farmers rrom an parts oi Ashley valley and by state and county officials, it was decided to continue the campaign inaugurated last year for weed and crop pest control. The meeting was presided over by A. Theo-dore Johnson, president of the Uintah county farm bureau, and was atended by Harden Bennloa, state commission-er of agriculture; Dr. F. E. Stephens, state agricultural Inspector; W. L. Fletcher, chairman of the board of county commissioners, and E. Peter-son, county agricultural agent.

LOGAN Hyrum's third annual Black and White day, similar to the big event staged In Richmond annually, will be held soon ac-cording to Orson Miles, member of the committee In charge of arrangements. The committee ex-pects that close to 100 animals will be on display. DUCHESNE Permission to In-crease its rates on freight hauled Into and out of the Uintah basin was grant--I ed the Sterling Transportation com-- ' pany by the public utilities commis-sion recently. The company esti-mated that revenues from Its 1928 operations under the present rates would lack $18,277.44 of being suffi-cient to pay operating expenses, allow for deprlclatlon on its trucking equip-ment, and pay 8 per cent on the in-vestment. Under the rates proposed by It, the company estimated the defi-cit for the purposes named would be 17861.84. GREEN RIVER To preserve as much of old Fort Brldger as Is possible Is occupying the attention of many of the public-minde- d citizens of the three southwestern counties of Wyoming right now. The state historical land-mark commission has secured an op-tion on this property from W. C. Casto, its present owner and recently the commission held a meeting at Rock Spring and took steps to get the mon-ey. The commission has no funds for purchasing such places, but it has ap-pointed H.

Hay ot Rock Springs, Mr. and Mrs. Paysoa Mine Experts Develop Economical Carbonizing Washington Experts of the bureau of mines have developed what Is de-scribed as an economical process for carbonizing lignite, which opens up the possibility of adding enormously to the nation's fuel resources.

Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Texas and other states west of the Mississippi, making up nearly one-thir- d of the total solid-fue- l resources of the country.

Richard Lee Shott, son of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Shott. who lives on a farm Dear here, was burned to death, ap-parently because he feared he would be punished for setting fire to the barn. The father stood in the blazing barn a short distance from the door. "Come to me. Dickey; I won't punish you," called the father, but the boy drew back into the flames.
