Final Rites Held For John Gavula Friends and neighbors gather ed to pay their final tribute to the life of John Gavula, last Wednesday at 1:00 p. m. The funeral was held in the A. H. Wing Mortuary with Bishop George A. Ricks cf the Third ward tating charge. Vocal duets by Mrs. Ralph Wing and Mrs. Jack Mitchell were accompanied by Mrs. Vernon Vern-on Nielson.

The biographical sketch was read by Mrs. Mahlon Smith. It traced the life and struggles of a boy left orphaned at the age of 12, making his way alcne in a new land, America. A man of genial nature, always cheerful no matter what the odds, carried on through the rigors of mining life, at length finding a haven of quiet and security in farming was the picture described.

Utah), the Reclamation Rec-lamation Bureau is empowered to rent water to the stockholders of the Provo River Waterusers association until the excess cost is reduced to the contract rates, O. C. Day, director , from the Highland district, said following a stockholders meeting held in Prove Feb. 2. On account of the increased cost of labor, which came almost entirely from high wages during the war, the cost of the Deer Creek project was greatly increased, in-creased, Mr. Day said, and gave as an example the 'east half of the Duchesne tunnel which will cost almost five times as much as the west half which was built before the war. Contract price of the project was increased from $7,600,000 to $11,400,000, which increased the annual 40 year payments from $1.90 to $2.85 per share, and this still will not pay. for the cost. Consequently Senator Watkins sponsored the new bill which will take care of the excess, and when that is paid the stockholders stock-holders will begin making their contract payments. The Provo River Water Users Association holds 100,000 shares in the project, and 96 & per cent of the stockholders were present at the meeting which was pre sided over by J. W. Gillman, Orem, president. Farmers of Highland have sub scribed to 5010 shares of the water and American Fork and Lehi each hold 500 shares.
