Personal property tares where not secured by real estate are due at once, according to the announcement of Rurdette Smith, county assessor. If the taxes are not paid by April 15, the law gives the assessor authority to add f3 penalty on all delinquents of that date. These taxes for the most part arc from automobile owners who do not own real estate. Cafe Owner Plans Complete Plans for Beautification of City Unique Publicity for (Continued From Page One.)

Tree planting is one of the marks of progress and civilization. The pioneers of this state were great advocates of the planting of trees. This was shown in Ogden, Salt Lake and other towns of the state, where now the parks and highways have the wonderful shade trees which make a beauty that has always been subject of comment. It is expected the next meeting of civic organizations will see more thi definite steps leading to the adoption of a five year program for beautification work. The committee which is working upon the beautification plans is composed of: Frank Francis, chairman; Mrs. John A. Gager, Secretary; Mayor George E. Browning, V. County Commissioner Frank Stratford, Mrs. J. W. Wintle, Mrs. Edward I. Rich, Mrs. A. V. McIntosh, Mrs. Agnes II. Stevens, Mis. Julia E. Perry, Mrs. C. C. Johnson, of the Womens clubs of the city; Miss Ellen Agren, home demonstrator; A. L. Christiansen, county agent and President George F. Stallings of the Weber county farm bureau; W. Karl improvement roundings. This should be in the form of planting of trees, shrubs, and flowers of various kinds. Attention will be paid to the beautifying of the dugway road to the mouth of the canyon, by the planting of trees. Steps toward the beautifying of Ogden Canyon are contemplated. The first steps for the maintaining of Ogden Canyon's natural beauty are to be the preservation of the natural attractions. The destroying of the trees and vegetation of the canyon should be discouraged. The painting of signs upon the rocks or placing of billboards in the canyon or along the road to the canyon or any move to commercialize that which nature has given to the people, should be discouraged very strongly. A number of years ago the women of Ogden through their club made a successful fight against the placing of billboards at the mouth of the canyon and along the dugway road. An attempt should be maintained to keep these spots free from the billboards and advertisecounty schools; Henry ments. In connection with the plan for the ker, Fred G. Taylor and L. D.

A warning to motorists not to use sirens or exhaust whistles upon their cars has been issued by Chief of Polite Jonathan Jones, in calling attention to the city ordinances which prevents the use of such horns upon automobiles, except those of the police and fire departments. The motorists are futher urged to pull to the nearest side of the curbing when they hear the siren of the police or fire departments. An average of more than a mile a minute 61.7 miles an hour to be exact was achieved bv a standard Essex Super-Si- x Coarh in a continuous run of nearly 14 hours on a dirt race track at Tanforan, California, just outside of San Francisco, according to word received by Ogden Motor Car company, in the Ogden area. This record run, said L. L. Hains, manager, was made by amateur drivers who are connected with the service department of Stanley W. Smith, the San Francisco distributor for Hudson and Essex cars. The record was made under the supervision of newspapermen. Shortly after the test rain fell heavily, loosening the surface of the dirt track so as to interfere seriously with fast time. Writing of the run, one of the newspapermen who acted as an official observer said in part: Tanforan track was chosen.to make the test of speed and stamina because it was the only available place in Northern California. The track was never designed for anything but horse racing and in the few attempts that have been made in the past to put motor cars over it at high speed, four lives have been lost on the unbanked sharp turns. In addition to these handicaps, the track had Inin in disuse for many months. It was overgrown with weeds, its surface rough ami full of rain gullies. Added to these diff;culties, lowering clouds began to spill rain on the course at the outset and continued at intervals throughout the darkness. With no special equipment except shock absorbers and a sprcadlight, the Essex battled these adverse conditions, hour after hour. Its sturdy motor never missed a beat during the long hours of the night. Lap after lap-- it tore down the backetretch at top speed, ripping into the vicious curves at the ends, straightening out as it slithered through the mud and pounded over the wretched roadbed. of the The motor was equaled by the courage shown by the men who drove none of whom had ever driven a car on a race track before. Several professional drivers who were present refused to go on, declaring that no automobile built could keep up such a terrible pace in view of all the obstacles. Words can convey no adequate description of the punishment that the Essex car took in this long grind or the unfaltering courage of the men who kept on, hour after hour, in the face of obstacles which would daunt the most Yet, at the finish, the motor was functioning so perfectly that the car was driven with four passengers, including myself as official observer, to the top of Twin Peaks in high. After observing the run, checking every detail and examining the car, I believe that had weather permitted, it could have gone on at this high speed almost indefinitely, even under all the other adverse conditions be-ga- chamber of commerce has promised its support to the annual clean-u- p week" which is to be sponsored by the state health board.
