LIBERTY BONDS ARRIVE 1 Save Fifty Cents neu-eoine- from Salem. Mr. and Mrs. J. Leland DewIt is gratifying to learn that ey visited friends at Mapleton last week. alnew administration is ready making preparations for Paysons new dress, the paving of her business district. Last week Mayor Erlandson and the street committee, John Done and R. LAVil-son- , met with the Provo committee on street pavement and consulted with them regarding the method of proceedure and other important matters pertaining to the new project. Very soon the committee will go to the capital and obtain the best expert information possible regarding paving. Every effort is being made by our city fathers to gain all the information pos sible before taking this big step, so that as few mistakes as possible may be made when the work is done. It is doubtful if we realize at present the many advantages this wise step of paving will bring to the city of Payson. Instead of being a little behind some other towns, as she has some times been classed, this city will tear down the barriers of prejudice and sentiment as a British tank walks through barb wire entanglements and lences, and put herself among he first class cities of thecoun- Coun-oilme- ry- - n .Misses Cora Cloward, Cornelia Hanks, Lillian Bood, Velma Parsons, Vera Taylor and Priscilla Christensen went to Pay-soFriday evening to help in Red Cross work. n Peter Johnson of Salt Lake City was visiting relatives and friends here over Sundav.
