A year or two ago Ben was named chairman of the Lions clubs civic betterment committee, and apparently he and his committee looked around and decided the thing we have that is least developed in relation to its interest and value is the Willard Peaks area. Ben has been plugging the Willard basin ever since, in every way he knows how . . . which is quite a few ways. He has talked it up with the Forest service, with the county commissioners, with the at his pet hobby and city fathers. Ben and his committee visualize Willard d basin the wide, green, basin with the small blue lake back of Willard as a sort of recreation area, similar to the Box Elder county park. Because of the wide view it commands of Beveral states, its interesting horticultural and geological attractions, the area should be especially popular as a tourist attraction. Call believes. Its altitude and topography would be favorable to development of a skiing area for a long winter season. Well, Ben has the idea now that July 24 would be a good time to invite a lot of people of the Brigham City area to look over Willard basin, and learn more about this scenic attraction, this potential playground, we have right here in our own back yard. i flower-bedecke- i l i Ben and his committee would like to organize a community Jim Bridger Day picnic, with everyone invited, for July 24. Bight now the road to Willard peak serves y better as a passage, although there are many places tvhere passing is possible. Therefore it might be advisable to have the road reserved for cars going up hill for certain hours, for cars coming down the hill for other hours. Jt all could be arranged. Ben's committee visualizes games and races and contests throughout the afternoon, up on the peak. Maybe a talk or two, one selling the peak to the people present, and another patriotic in nature. The city so fathers sound favorable on the idea dont be surprised if youre invited, along with the rest of tfie public, to go to the Willard basin for July 24, for a picnic. One trip up, and a few minutes conversation with Ben Call, and well wager youll be sold on the areas possibilities. Oh yes, why Jim Bridger Day? Well were still quoting Ben Jim Bridger was believed to be the first man ever to enter Great Salt Lake basin, away back in 1824. He discovered Great Salt Lake. And after discovering it was salty, he turned around, walked back and climbed to Mt. Baldy, right above Willard basin, to survey the wide area and get his bearings. There have been honest men in recent years, Ben says, who recall seeing Jim Bridgers name and the date carved on ex-atree, up in Willard basin.

Johns blackest crime is that of imperialism and so far as facts and figures go he seems to be the embodiment and example par excellence of this unpardonable sin. Because of it he has come to grips with almost every nation of Europe at one time or another and he even had the gall to challenge our position in this continent once or twice in pur-su- i tof it. In fact our settlement of this continent and our subsequent history is a logical outgrowth of John s imperialism. Without it the U. S., as we know it, wouldnt be here.
