As many have Written their appreci ation, for your seading to them the "Lehi .Suu, I too wish to thank you for your kindness. W inability to write my thoughts hasikept me from writ Ing sooner. -. . ( . The Lehl Bun pas been a big help to' me on my mission. The news it brings from homl paints that old familiar picture, fi&w again, perhaps you do not know mow much you help the work of tlie Lord along. Many times during the course of two years of missionary life you get discouraged, and downhearted, every thing-goes wrong! It seems like old "Satin" is with you to place obstacles to stop your progress, prayer and en couragement is needed, and surely news from home k encouragement, Many times while reading the home happenings from thj" pages of the Lehl Sun,, my spirits have been revived and I could then jgo forth with a greater enthusiasm in the work of the Lord." One m&i has said, "Good encouragement, is inspiration to good works." iSo in this ray you are helping help-ing to roll the mighty stone "The Kingdom of God" to the utmost parts or tne earuu vs For the p.ast nineteen months' I have labored in. the state of Georgia under the Southern aim, I have learned learn-ed to love the south and its hospitable hospit-able people, I could never say anything any-thing against hem. ; The work of the Lord Is progress-ing progress-ing fast in the Georgia District, our past year was - a- record breaker." More baptisms were prformed, more Books of Mormon an( smaller literature liter-ature were distributed han has been in any previous' year In the history of the district, ; The JLord has certainly cer-tainly been with us. Some few weeks ago I was led by the impression of the spirit to the door of an honest old couple, for two and a half hours, 1 talked the Gospel to those people, who listened with intease interest to the Restoration of the Gospel of Salvation. As 1 was leaving the lady said to me, "Mr. Webb, you are the first Mormon preacher to enter my house, for some time I have been hoping and praying one of you would come and explain your faith." I told her I sincerely believed my visit was an answer to prayer. Taey are now reading the Book of Mormon. Many other incidents could be named, showing how the Lord is with us, and preparing the way for us. . I would like to tell all of my friends in dear old Lehl, hello. That is If I have any left. 1 wish they were all on missions as I am. 'That they would have the testimony of Jesus Christ bedded in their soul so deep it could not be rooted out. In closing, I wish all the people of Lehl success and happiness. Sincerely, ' ARMOND E. WEBB, 485 North Avenue. N. E. Atlanta, Georgia. ' i o Mrs. L. E. Lott,.

Open Season Announced On Sage Hens and Grouse Rumors as to who would become candidate for the. United States senate sen-ate from Utah became reality when former governor William Spry, now commissioner of the United States land office, announced his candidacy last week. Governor Spry has many friends In Utah, both political and personal; he has twice served the state as gover nor, and he was a good governor. As a matter of fact. Governor Spry was immensely popular with his party previous to becoming commissioner ot the United States land office. When governor of Utah and a mem- Lber of the state land board, Governor Spry was strong for Utah possession and administration of lands which were claimed by the state under the terms of the enabling act, but since becoming United States land com-mssioner com-mssioner he has seemed to have modified his views on the question. This modification he set forth in a speech before a congress or convention, conven-tion, held in Denver' just previous o the action of congress which gave most of the land in dispute to the states. Not only will the opponents of the commissioner lor the omce or sena tor, but the Democrats also, may be expected to use his Denver speech against him, Governor Spry has evidently evi-dently considered this' matter " and many more before . deciding to be come a candidate. . ; o- '- Open season on sago hens and grouset was fixed from August 28 to September - 5, inclusive, in a pro clamation issued Thursday by D.. II. Madsen, state fish and game com missioner. " Mourning doves may be shot be tween Sept, 1 and Sept 5, both dates inclusive in all counties of the state At present thefe has been no open season announced on quail or pheasants pheas-ants in any county in the state, Mr, Madsen announced. An open season may be declared on quail and a lew, counties cn pheasant but this will aot be dene until late In October. The limit of 'birds shall not exceed In one day, more than eight sage hens or eight grousei or both varieties of saga hens and grouse. Any hunt,. er found with morel than a total of eight sage' hens and grouse will be prosecuted.; though during the open season a single hunter. may kill up to 12 of the sage hens and grouse species. Hunters may also legally kill during a single day up to fifteen mourning , doves in addition to the eight sagefiens and grouse. ,, -i: o City Officials To Secure Municipal League Con ntion Governor Urges Citizens To Make State Fair Greatest In History Salt Lake Oity, August 10, 1927.
