MOTHER PIONEER IS BROWN TELLS St OF ARMY LIFE s. te Assessor Lorenzo Pett and his office icrce have completed the tabulation t o Box Elder Countys resources that are assessable for taxing purposes and i tie result shows that Box Elder coun- Xf has increased in assessed valuation , in that part of her property which the couaty assessor passes on, $729, 323 ever last year. Assessor Pett was advised by the State Board of Equalization, that the cement plant and potash plant should not be assessed by him, but properly comes under the jurisdiction of the State Board of Equalization. This reduced the assessors figures by $175,000 which, if permitted to stand, would have made the increased Valuation $901,323. The total assessed valuation as compiled by the assessor is $18,18o,720. Last year the total was $17, 460,397. The valuation of the property assessed by the State Board of EqualIt ization last year was $14,524,985. is certainty that this amount will he Increased at least the hundred and thousand which the counseventy-fiv- e ty issessor lost so that the grand total assessed valuation of Box Elder county for 1919 will be approximately $32,886,705, as against $31,985,382 fur last year. In his report, County Assessor Pett shows in detail the assessed valuation of all real estate, improvements, live stock and personal property in the county, as follows : " Real Estate I Farm lands, 323,293.6'7a....$7,568,615 Fruit lands, 1887.92a 174,865 Grazing lands, 498572.25a 1,020,075 (Other lands, 710, 996.50a.... 663,877 Waste lands, 93368.26a... 47.250 lining claims, 2063.83a .. 10,015 otal real est. 1636182.43a 9,474,682 Wn and city lots 968,880 at )d er ol 3p n- - IL . At 5 oclock a. m. on Saturday, Mrs. Mary 'Althea Jensen, wife of Jacob Jensen, passed peacefully away at the family residence on South Main street. The death of Mrs. Jensen came as a blessed release from years of suffering, the good woman being partially paralyzed during the last few years of her ilfe which rendered her almost helpless and at times it was difficult for her to recognize even the members of her own family while it was impossible for her to move about without the assistance of someone. Mrs. Jensen was the daughter of the late Charles and Sarah Allen Wight, and was born at West Jordan, Salt Lake County, Utah, August 11th, 1851. The family removed to this city in 1855 since which year Mrs. Jensen has been identified with the growth and development of Brigham City. She became the wife of Jacob Jensen on October 10th, 1870 in the Endowment House at Salt Lake City and was the mother of twelve children, nine of whom survive her. Before her marriage, Mrs. Jensen taught school and was one of the prominent workers in the young peoples organizations of the church when she was a girl. In her later years she became active in the Relief Society in which organization she worked faithfully until her health broke down completely a few years ago. Mrs. Jensen was a woman who was content to devote herself to her family and the needy in her neighborhood caring little or nothing for what is , Supt. C. H.

I asked him if he ever let anyone know he was of that faith; he burst out laughing and said h yes, do you? He s enjoying the same experiences as little Willie." While in England I was invited out to dinner one evening, and while they were preparing it, they ask me where I was from. I said Utah, and put on a bold front. The party said, Isnt that where those Mormons are I said Yes," and I thought right here Is where I lose the feed, but they were nice people, too polite to ask me if I was one, and I didnt push it onto them until after the lunch. I was told many and terrible things about us, and by a lady who had no impediment in her voice, and a grand supply of available English words to say it with. I sure had a hearty laugh, and after a splendid dinner what could have been better? I , wouldnt have traded places with King Georg? Just then. Before I left, I think they were convinced that we were not so bad, after all. The people were very nice, and I can taste the dinner yet. They had, at one time, given a meal to sev enty-on- e of our American boys, and I know they all appreciated the favor as I did. $21,-712.9- Clnist-olferseu- 6-- 4-- 6-- 4-- 1-- 5-- 1-- 7-- 5-- 1-- Corn-wal- l, 4-- JJd-n- a 7-- 4-- 1-- i 6-- 1-- 3-- 6-- j 1-- 6-- 3-- 1-- 6-- 3-- e 3-- AUTO ACCIDENT nished n Mrs. hr.
