They have a delightful, new, playhouse. They were busy planning furniture and curtains, etc. The boys are responsible for making the furniture. The house is green and ivory so the children have chosen green, ivory and orange as the colors they will use in· decorating furniture, curtains are scarfs. They have painted the dining room furniture in yellow and the bedroom in green. The scarfs are of unbleached muslin and a design painted with crayons. They summed up the amount and the yardage for their curtains. In all it will be very nice when they get the house finished. They enjoyed a delightful party for Hallowe'en the whole affair being in ' the hands of the little people. They apl!l~inted committees, planned and serted the lunch, decorated the napkins, doilies, etc., made the room decorations and planned the program. Experiences of this type are most val~able to children. · .tUNE ANDERSON. ' ~ . ARMISTICE DAY ASSEMBLY Wednesday, an Armistice day assembly was enjoyed by the pupils of the Junior· High school.

UNIVERSITY BUREAU ANALYZES BUSINESS Providing businessmea, government officials and others in the state of Utah with an accurate analysis of business · and economic conditions is the aim of the newly organized Bureau of ~conomics and Business Research of the University of Utah. The bureau is in charge of Dr. J, R. Mahoney who is assisted by Dr. Dilworth Walker and Dr. P. C. Kelly of the faculty of the School of Business 6f the University of Utah. Since the inception of the bureau in May, 1931, a comprehensive analysis al}d in<!ex of mineral production in Utat/. has been completed and published. Studies are und er way I oo k · poss1'b"l't' ing into the economlC 1 1 tes o~i' developing the iron and steel industry . in the state.

Like studies of the natural resources in other parts of the state are also in progress. As the work advances, Dr. Mahoney points out, investigation into every industrial field applicable to Utah's resources and economic life will be made and the results will be published in a regular monthly journal and in special bulletins which will be available to citizens throughout the state. In addition to the above mentioned fields of economic research, the bureau will study problems of business management, banking, accounting and marketing in Utah. I "Good" for Thought I wish the people of my city, with its great army of unemployed, with the depression that hangs heavily over our people, might see the German on the streets of Berlin, with a cheery smile on his face, his head up, looking on.-Mayor Walker of New York. LOS ANGELES, Nov. 12.-The gradual upward swing which has started in commodity values has not affected livestock markets as yet, but there is a feeling of greater confidence in livestock circles. With grain prices showing a substantial advance during recent weeks, there will be less disposition to feed grain to livestock and this, coupled with forced selling in most parts of the country, may create a shortage of cattle, hogs and sheep. rackers are giving serious thought to such a probability and there appears to be a genuine desire on the part of the trade to bring about some upward revision in livestock prices. Marketing of southwestern calves is the heaviest this fall in a long time and, due to several causes, most of these calves are going into immediate retail channels with a very bad effect on values. Range cattlemen are forced to sell calves on the market in order to realize cash and difficulty in financing feeder purchases prevent feedlot operators from taking full advantage of the low prices. It could hardly seem otherwise than to figure that such heavy marketing of both male and female calves will result in a shortage of beef before another six mont~s goes by. Interest in hog producUon continues active in California and each week sees new breeders in the business. These people are for the most part dairymen and smaller farmers, who see the need for diversification. rhey are buying breeding stock at low prices and no doubt will be in a position to capitalize on the advance that is certain to come about, when the pigs are ready for the market. There is greater optimism in sheep circles as lambs have apparently reached bottom price levels and the price trend has shown improvement during recent weeks. November 9 to 14 is National Wool Week, during which time every interest in the sheep and wool industry is making efforts to encourage the use of woot Department stores throughout the country are featuring woolen goods ·during ~his week ~s a re~ult of . ~ c~:preh~nsive ca mfa1%n laid _out t,Y e vdarhwus wo~1 ra e . orgt·aniza,IOns an s eepmen s orgamza IOns. Another great campaign is being waged by wool interests to encourage m~king this a "wool Christmas," suggesting that practical Christmas gifts of woolen articles be given.
