Neslen EASTER CANTATA WILL BE PRESENTED SUNDAY BY NEPHI The Easter season is approaching. Each year at this sacred season the Christian world commemorates the sacrificial death and subsequent resurrection of the Lord, Jesus of Nazreth, the Only Begotton Son of God. In great cathedrals and in humble chapels alike, worsnipiui people bow in humility, while choirs sing and organs pour forth strains of sacred music and the of the sufferings story is ana death of the Saviour of the forld and His glorious resurrection on the morning of the third day. Much of the world's greatest music has been inspired by the marvelous events which are commemorated at Easter, and in all Christian churches these sacred compositions are a part of the services at this season. In consonance with the worldwide custom, the Easter season will be ushered in at Nephi with appspecial musropriate services and ical observances. On Sunday evening next, at 8 P. M. at the Tabernacle, the Nephi Ward choir, under the direction of Mrs. Viviancan-P. Hoyt, will present an Easter tata, "The Living Christ". Members of all wards of Juab Stake are invited to attend this presentation, as Sacramental services in the various wards will be held during the afternoon of that day. The change of Fast Day to March 29 was made to conform to the recommendation of the First Presidency of the Church, since there will be a nation wide brodcast of General conference services on April 5th. The cantata to be presented by the Nephi Ward choir is the of Henry Wildermare, one of the world's greatest composers of Religious music. Accompanists for the occasion will be Mrs. Grace H. Judd at the organ, Mrs. Mary Bailey at the piano, Mrs. Alice Ladle, violin, Miss Beverly Booth, flute. Miss Vivian Hoyt, volin cello. Mrs. Scriptural texts wll be read by Lyle Pratt.

Clarence Nelsen, Chaplain at Fort Douglas Recenption Center. In his talk he outlined briefly the proce- dure followed when inductees were received at the Reception Center. A complete physical examination is first given the men, followed by necessary inoculation and vacinat- icns for contagious diseases. When the men are issued uniforms, regul- ations have ben changed from the hit and miss method of fitting the men as in World War No. 1, so that now each man is carefully measured and fitted, with special attention given to shoes. He stated that in the past few months he had visited all the camps on the Pacific Coast and wanted to correct false rumors to the effect that the morale of the men was low. As Chaplain he had the privilege of talking personally with many of the men in these camps and found the opposite to be the . Soil District Election Scheduled April 3 is Date Set For Election of Board Members re-to- ld 1 The State Soil Conservation Committee announced recently that an election will be held on April 13, to choose three Supervisors for the East Juab Sojl Conservation District. Poling places will be set up in the City Hall at Nephi, the Courthouse at Levan and the Courthouse at Mona. The names of five men: John C. i'JkJmSSJZ interest be on the ballot. Each voter will vote for three, and the three men receiving the highest number of votes will be declared members of the Board of Supervisors to serve for three years. Anyone owning or occupying land outside of the incor porated towns of Nephi, Levan and Mona, and within the District boundaries is entitled to vote. The election of these supervisors will complete the organization of the District which will then be ready to function in its work of conserving soil and moisture in Eastern Juab County. Any farmer wishing aid in controlling soil erosion on his farm should make application to any of the Supervisors, or to W. S. Long, District Conservationist, in the City Hall, Ne- - SfllL LU UU Hf LilClt UIL, llKJ illdLUCJ. Pursuant to the suggestion of the First Presidency, it has been decided to observe next Sunday, March 29, as Fast Day in Juab Stake, instead of the first Sunday in April. This change has been recommended in order that people may arrange to hear the broadcast of the special conference services to be held Sunday morning, April 5 to be transmitted from Station KSL. We desire to urge all the people to faithfully observe Fast Day. From the beginning of history of God's dealings with His children on earth, men have known that spiritual In strength and power comeor through fasting and prayer. God times of trial or sorrow peril, those who believe in have leaned that through fasting and supplication to Him, they have received Divine aid. In time of national peril this nation has many times been called upon to fast and pray to Saints are expected to fast God for His protection. Latter-da- y once each month, and on that day to humble themselves and ask for forgiveness of sins and for Divine guidance and help. The sorrows and perils which confront mankind today should lead Christian people to exert themselves to the utmost to obtain the favors and blessings of Heaven. Let us not neglect fasting, repentance, ' prayer. Without fear or doubt we say that all those who keep the commandments of God will be blessed of Him, on earth and in the life to come. WILL L.

Nephi City has always been one of the more progressive communities of the state, and ever since the settlement of Salt Creek, the people have had vision and looked ahead and have provided themselves with the things to make for good living conditions. In the early days a water works system was installed, later on one of the first municipal electric light plants was built, and as it grew outdated then other plants were built. These improvements cost money, and they were willing to bond for these better things, but next Wednesday, April 1st, finds all bonds of the city paid off, and Nephi will have paid for the improvements that have been very valuable to the progress of this city. The Times-New- s, in behalf of the people of Nephi, compliment the various city councils, and mayors for their most excellent business management of the affairs of the city so that we are now with the world and have bothsquare an excellent water works system and an excellent electric light system, all paid for. Next Wednesday, beginning at 4:30 P. M. a free picture show will begin at the Venice Theatre and run for four shows. The feature picture will be Kay Kysor in All the citizens of Playmates'. re. Nephi are invited to attend gardless of age. At 9 P. M. a free dance will be given to all adults of the city. The dance will be for everybody 20 years of age or older, and the feature of the dance will be several fine feature acts which are being furnished by KSL ot. Sal U LakeCity. The dance will be held at the Juab high school gymnasium. The picture show will be for everybody, but the city officials find that it would be impossible to accomodate everybody at the dance so they have had to limit it to all persons 20 years of age or older. A banquet is being arranged for Thursday evening, beginning at 7 P. M. in the South ward amusement hall, which will honor all elective officers and all former elective officers of Nephi City.
