Show 8 Page r April THE JOURNAL - Audubon Jr. Club Organized In Kaysville KAYSVILLE Organization of an Audubon Junior Club in the (ith grade of the Kaysville Elementary School was announced yesterday by Mr. L. R. Lindeman, who is the leader of the club. Newly-electe- d officers of the John club are Steiner, president, and and Gay Parker, vice-preside- nt treasurer. The National Audubon which sponsors Audubon Clubs, has sent the new supply of materials which buttons for each member, Society, Junior unit a include colored pictures of birds, mammals and flowers, as well as suggestions for exploring the outdoors in order to become better acquainted with the community of living things and its importance in the terms of human progress. Mr. Lindeman said, The National Audubon Society has found that until the children develop an interest in birds, mammals, insects, trees, or other nature subjects, they have little interest in conservation of natural resources. It is for this reason that the Society devotes a great deal of time and money to the organization of Audubon Junior Clubs. These clubs were founded in 1910 with a gift of $15,000 from Mrs. Russell Sage to the National Audubon Society. She was shocked by the widespred slaughter of robins that she observed during a trip through the South and decided that an organized program of nature education would offer the only real solution to the problem. During the 45 years of their existence, Audubon Junior Clubs have expanded their scope of activities to include all branches of natuxe and conservation. They study plants, insects, mammals, aquatic life, as well as birds; they learn about soil erosion, forest conservation, and water pollution. These clubs are active in every state of the union and every province of Canada, as well as in Mexico, Alaska and Hawaii, and many foreign countries.

The 150 men who work in the acre and a half machine shop are part of the team of 6,000 who produce copper in Utah. Where does the money come from to pay the men and buy the expensive equipment housed in the Machine Shop? It comes from one source only. By selling copper at a profit, Utah Copper is able to spend the money needed to repair and maintain equipment. Profits buy new equipment and pay for developing better mining, milling and refining methods. When Utah Copper sells its product profitably, it continues the operations that produce prosperity for people living in every section of our state. up-to-da- Park.
