Wilkinson, publisher of the Beaver County News was an office visitor last week and we had an interesting meeting. He publishes as perfect a paper in the weekly field as it is pos-sible to make. He has ideas of his own but sometimes he finds that it is not the wisest policy to publish them. Anyhow he tells us that he publishes as' much truth as he dares. Mrs. C. N. Lund, associate publisher, has received a very courteous letter from reasurer Wm Waterfall of the Sagebrush Democratic Club enclosing a beautiful card which makes her a life member of the organiza--: tion as reward for splendid party services.

Chamber of Com-merce has gone far toward the people and speaks as follows: 'Unless America meets the challenge that civilization j and all that is predicated upon it will perish just as has every nation in history which has been unable to meet its problems. 'In my travels about the United States I have found two profound emotions stirring the people. "The first of these is that the war must be ended at the earliest possible moment, to bring an end io the bloodshed and horror of war, to unite families and to remove, at the quickest opportunity, the restrictions forced upon us by war. "The second," he added, "is a new emotion the fear of mass unemployment facing Americans. Translated into per-sonal terms, this means, 'What kind of job will I 'have after the war?' 'How long will it last?' 'Vvhat will my pay check be?' All eyes are focused upon the fearsome shadow of unem-ployment," he declared, and continued: "Unemployment is the great problem of pur civilization. We must solve it. It is a terrible, insistent, devastating disease in our lives." some Russian Aviators who flew over Mount Ararat, the place, according .to the Bible account where the Ark rested when the waters subsided. The article is in the form of a question and the editor's answer. "Dear Sir: Have any remains of Noah's Ark ever been found? "According to Genesis the Ark of Noah rested after the flood upon the mountains of Ararat. Now I am going to give you something very startling. Here it is: "An article entitled "Noah's Ark Found" says Vladimar Roskovitsky.' "The following story by Mr. Roskovitsky, a converted Russian, for itself. He is now engaged in selling Bibles, etc., and is an American citizen, having escaped with his life after dscovering the Ark. He gives this discovery credit for opening his eyes to the truth of the Bible and we pass it along, trusting that you too will find it of interest and value. "It was just before the Russian Revolution that this story really began. A group of Russian Aviators were sta-tioned at a lonely temporary outpost about twenty-fiv- e miles northeast of Mt. Ararat. The day was dry and hot as August days so often are in this semi-dese- rt land. "Even the lizards were flattened out under the shady side of rocks and twigs, their mouths open and tongues lashing out as if each panting breath would be their last. Only occasionally would a tiny wisp of air rattle the parched vegetation and stir up a choking cloudlet of dust. "Far up on the side of the mountains we could see a thunder shower, while still farther up we could see the white snow caps of Mt. Ararat, which has snow all the year round because of its very great height. How we longed for some of that snow. "Then the miracle happened. The captain walked in and Continued On Page 4. Noah's Ark Has Been Found Incontrovertable Proof Offered Handed in by O. F,r Gudmundson. Paid for by Albert Mortensen and Wmilliam Thomas This story was sent to President Frank V. Anderson by his son Elder Robert F. Anderson, who obtained it at a Con-ference of the Northwestern States Mission Found by Russian aviators on Mount Ararat in a state of perfect conservation. Near the Ark is the altar upon which Noah offered sacrifices when he emerged from the ark. (Genesis 8:20) By Vladimar Roskovitsky "For years there has been a lot of speculation among Bible scholars as to what became of Noah's Ark. Of course, there always have been men who denied the authenticity of the Bible record of the Ark and the Flood, stigmatizing the entire story as something incredible. So far, every dis-covery that scientists have unearthed through arduous excava-tion and incessant study has only helped to establish the assertations of God's Holy Word. In all the realm of discovery there haa been nothing that has so profoundly impressed the religious world and the thinking people who have read in a religious periodical called the "Voice of Prophecy", and which I give in full here for the benefit of the readers. The report is that a huge wooden structure has been seen by Political Items Hear Ye! It was 169 years ago Wednes- - day since the first shot was fired in the American revolution, the shot heard around the world. On this day the Allies gave or-ders to Norway to stand by for thf! invasion of Europe. Thus the mightiest war event of all time has virtually begun. A minister advertises that on one evening he will speak on Hell over Hollywood, and on another night he will speak on hell on the Home Front. Now if he will just throw in another sermon on Hell in Politics he will give his hearers plenty of Hell. Congressman Miller, like some others, has little ability wit i which to boost himself, so he jumped on to the New Deal and tried to use Gen. McArth-u- r In the effort. But in so doing he spoiled the general's chance. Mrs. Washburn, descendent of Lafayette and one of the de-fenders in the big treason tri-als in Washington, was once in this office and spoke her mind. What she said about the presi-de- nt was too mean and vile to repeat. We tola her that we wouldn't stand under the same roof with any one who believed ' as she did. And then she made tracks for more fertile fields. Considering some of the ' in Congress and out it will be a nine day wonder if any progress can be made in peace making. It may b doubt ful if the war can be won. Sen. Stanley Ch Id and Sec. E. E. Monsen are nibbling for !fi the governnorship. Go ahead. WE CAN DO IT! WE'LL BEDAMNED IF WE DON'T This gigantic and cruel war has taught us one vitally significant lesson. It has shown us what scores of millions of common people can do when put to work under conditions that demand urgent speed. It has given us a hint of the pro-ductive capacities of the masses if the urgency of war produc-tion could be transferred to the urgency of wealth production for peaceful ends. Science is the medium. Science, joined with political and industrial democracy, can give us a world in which every willing worker could be guaranteed jobs and ample rewards. The end of hostilities must be the signal for a new awake-enin- g. When millions of men and women put down their guns and war tools, they must be prepared ideologically for a new social order in which they will see their sacrifices indemnified, not through charity but through the dignity of an economy in which the avenues of security and freedom will be thrown open for all, regardless of race, religion or previous form of servitude. We have it within our powers to establish a Brotherhood of Man that will rest on sound, sane, moral, spiritual and scientific grounds. America Was World's Wonderland We want to tell a story or two about America which has been the wonderland of a I time, the first land in the world which I ad enough and clothing and shelter for all its people. Once upon a time a young man and his wife came to Utah where opportunity was beating down the doors. In fifty years they found wealth for their children and were counted among the millionaires. Then the couple took a trip home to Scot-land. The contrast, moved them to tears. There was the same low thatched cottnge unchanged, except for the worse, in half a century, appaling poverty, etc. And how they thanked God they are Americans. Not so long ago four brothers come here from'" Greece, where conditions were tolerable, for that country. Here they prospered, making lots of money, gathering property nnd liv-ing in luxurv. Then the eldest son decided, a few years ago' to take a trip to his native land, his boyhood home. Language can hardly describe the conditions he beheld. There was his aged mother, barefooted, in a tattered and patched dress, liv-ing in a hovel on a barren hillside & subsisting on what in this country would be considered starvation. This condition tore the son's heart strings and he arranged for her care and keep. A short time ago death came and took her away, and the bro-thers furnished means for a decent burial. This man too came home thanking God that he is an American. ow many are thankful for their America today and show-in- ft it, by their words and actions? A VOICE IS SOUNDING WARNING Someone has spoken the following as a voice to the heedless rich who have garnered the harvests: "I am come to impeach your happiness. It is fashioned out of the misery of your neighbor. You (the rich) have, everything, and that everything is composed of the little of others. As for me, I am but a voice. Mankind is a mouth, of which I am the cry. You shall hear me! I speak because I know. I have seen, I have felt! Suffering is not a mere word, ye happy ones! I grew up in poverty; winter has frozen me; I have known hunger; I have suffered contempt; I have under- - ' gone pestilence; I have drunk of shame. "I feel that I must come among you. Why? Because of my rags of yesterday. It is to raise my voice among those who have eaten their fill that God has reared me with the famished. Oh, have pity!" ws. mm . &&&& Iff --3. L . t When you buy War Bonds your money goes into action at once. Where, we may never know. Maybe, as shown above, to equip a company of American Rangers marching up a railroad somewhere on the Mediter-ranean. Whether they come back de-pends upon the equipment we send, t Give your dollars action: Buy More War Bonds. U. S. Treasury Department IT WAS PROVIDENCE THAT DECLARED THIS WAR Comparatively few realize that these are the last days, even the last of the last days. The world-wid- e warfare, the famines, the pestilences, the commotions and confusions were told of, even detailed long, long ago in the bible book of Joel and other prophetic books. Most bible authorities are agreed that this prophet gives the whole picture of the time of the end of the present age, the fulness of the times of the Gentiles; the battle of Armageddon, the regathering of Israel and the setting up of the Kingdom. The prophet Joel tells us very plainly that this war was decreed and proclaimed by the Almighty and that He will lead His chosen people to execute judgments upon the nations for their sins. The Lord said to Joel: "I will gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehosaphat (Armageddon) . . . Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles; prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all men of war draw near, let them come up. Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruning hooks into spears." Thus was world war I and H, and perhaps HI, declared. People are literally doing this, giving their scrap metal, their tin cans, even their kitchen utensils that they may be made into guns, swords, tanks and munitions. Beware how you oppose the plans of Providence. OLD AGE PENSION MEETS The Utah State Old Are Pen-sion group meets Thursday 2 D 41 Post Office Place.
