He eaid: The members of my congregation are not interested in helping the needy and unemployed in our immediate community but they give willingly and without complaint, great sums for any foreign need."

COUNCIL PUNS MONTHLY MEET MONDAY EVE The monthly meeting of the Magna Community Council will be held Monday, July 20th in the new offices of the executive secretary, John Rokich, at 8995 West South.

A great editor under whom 1 once studied, enumerated what he considered to be the greatest mistakes of man, as follows: 1. The delusion that individual advancement is made by crushing others down. X The tendency to worry about things that cannot be changed or corrected. 3. Insisting that a thing is impossible because we ourselves, not accomplish it 4 Refusing to set aside trivial preferences in order that important things may be accomplished X Neglecting development and refinement of the mind by not acquiring the habit of reading. 6. The failure to establish the habit of saving money. This appears to be a fair diagnosis of what is the matter with ua and everyone might profitably check up on himself in the light of these suggestions. ADMITTED traffic is extremely thick or on arteries to and from popular vacation sites, "a driver is always less than a second away from an accident" The drowsy driver is a particular menace to himself, his passengers and other motorists in Mr. Harris opinion. He said that while in the overall national total only per cent of highway accidents result fatally, in cases where the driver falls asleep, 47 per cent of the mishaps cause deaths. The wife of the driver or his passengers can perform a great safety service by asking questions requiring an answer. If the driver fails to answer, then he needs to be stopped, rested or relieved of his driving assignment by a qualified person who is fresh. For safe summer motoring, these simple rules are listed for drivers; 1. Start your trip when rested, not after a hard days work when fatigue has already set in.

Receives Promotion Utah Power - Light Warns of iMoving Hay Derricks Be careful in moving and operating hay derricks under or parallel to electric wires. This was the plea directed to farmers today by James C. Littlefield, Salt Lake division manager for Utah Power 6c Light Co. Mr. Littlefield pointed out that needless accidents with hay dor ricks occur every year. He listed several safety points for farmers to follow: 1. Never move derricks near electric wires with their booms up. Booms should be securely fast ened at both ends and held firmly in a horizontal position while being moved. X Do not touch chains, cables or ropes while the derrick is near a power line. 3. Do not ride on the derrick while it is being moved under or near a power line. 4. Never, under any circumstances, attempt to raise or move electric lines. 5. If in doubt or in need of as sistance, call the nearest Utah Power St Light Co. office. Mr. Littlefield asked that in calling the Power Company office to give reasonable notice so necessary arrangements can be made to have trained linemen supervise the moving.
