Wil-or- d Under suddenly and without warning hurled from mortality into immortality. Though he has gone from us, his words and his works remain, and fill us with gratitude for the life he lived, the inspiration he gave, and the love he engendered. It was his delight to do good, no Godly labor was too arduous; it was his glory to serve, no honors of men could tempt him therefrom. Was there one stricken with illness. Brother Partridge was there to minister and comfort. Did spiritual hope tremble and faith grow weak, he came to strengthen and encourage. When strong men faltered in the religious life, he stood firm in the faith of his fathers, walked with head unbowed, and declared unto all men, God lives and speaks from the heavens. All his days he labored to save souls. He served not only the quick, but the dead: few have worked with such zeal to open the gospel door to those who had not in mortal life been permitted to enter. We grieve for his loss; we condole with his wife, children, and relatives in their greater bereavement, and pray that Gods comforting influence may rest upon them but we humbly acknowledge the hand of Providence, and seek Divine help in enriching our lives from the store of his noble precepts and examples. these organizations. Ephraim was president of the bureau, were which sessions the of in charge held Friday and there was a representative attendance. Salt Lake county, which is said to be leading in this work of organization in order to take advantage of the cooperative marketing laws, is to be divided into five districts. Utah county also is making rapid strides in its organization work and Weber and Davis counties are practically through with their preliminary work. Meetings also have been arranged for Juab, Morgan and Summit counties. The success of the poultry system of marketing which is on the cooperative plan, has impressed the farmers so that they hope soon to be able to distribute their farm products in like manner and with similar success. The poultry sales plan has netted $70,-00- 0 to farmers within nine weeks and the prices have not gone up for the consumers. .

The tragic death of Professor Ernest D. Partridge, which occurred on the second of this present month has cast a deep gloom over the high priests of the Utah stake, of which he was a member. His departure has left a vacancy which will be difficult to fill due to his unusual abilities couplied with his unlimited capacity for service. We honor him for his integrity and faithfulness to his quorum as exemplified in his regularity of attendance at his quorum meetings phis willing response to every call made of him ; and his worthy examples in daily life. Not only was his influence for good felt in his own quorum, but it extended to all classes in the community in which he lived.

D. B. Gay, western tourfinder and representative of the Utah Scenic Highways association, who has just returned to his home in Provo after a trip to Los Angeles. He left here two weeks ago accompanied by Hale D. Judson, general manager of the Pikes Peak soon highway, who is to officially designate expected the western outlet for that highway through Utah. He was expected back from the coast today, and it is believed that he will name the Utah Scenic and central highways through southern Utah as the most practicable allthe-yea- r outlet for travel through this state. All Southern California is aroused to the necessity of reaching out after the tourist travel that is coming through Utah from the east, said Mr.. Gay, and we have all of central and southern Utah, southern Nevada, northern Arizona and Southern California united to put this matter over, in spite of the squabble between Salt Lake and the Lincoln Highway association over the Wendover road. We have the best possible route through this state already built and we do not need to direct travelers across a desert. We have sanguin hopes of bringing the Lincoln Highway people to an understanding that we are offering the best road and the best scenic route when we ask them to go south through Utah over the .old Mormon trail. California will pave east to Goffs near Needles and Las Vegas is backroad program from ing a ninety-mil- e Las Vegas to Littlefield, Arizona, which eliminates a bad stretch on the Mormon trail beyond St. George, Utah. Cities of southern and central Utah are united for the first time, and we are in hopes of mak-- l ing a strong showing at Washington when this road question comes up before the secretary of agriculture in the near future. Ocean-to-Oce- TO An Expression of Gratitude for the Life of ERNEST DE ALTON PARTRIDGE By Hi Fellow Workers of the Whole1-Southwes-- COUNTIES OF STATE ESTABLISHED 1910 Die nr ws of the death of Brother Partridge is still hovering over me and I cannot forget the influence he wielded upon me. I learned bv the humility of his soul, the strength of character which he had. In the church work of this stake we never had to urge Brother Partridge on. but wo had to wake up and work in order to .keep up with him. He had a testimony of th truthfulness of the gospel because he Hived so that lie gained that testimony. His children mav know that if they desire success in life they need but follow in the footsteps of their father A chorus from the Salt I.ake tabernacle choir sang for the first time the song composed by Professor A. C. Lund. Bring Heavy Heart Your Grief to Me. President F. R. Harris of the B. All U.. gave these sentiments: those who knew Bro. Partridge mourn his death. Man is that he might have joy and his life has been filled from this fountain because he lived not only for himself, but for all mankind, over all his magnetic spirit fell! He was a man who smiled when smiling was in reason, yet a man whose sincerity reached to the very depths of his soul. Joy means the complete exercise of all the normal functions of man Saints foster this and the Latter-da- y doctrine to the utmost. He was just as conscientious in his business transactions as he was with his church life. The day he left he told me, President Harris Y. said. Im a man of few words, yet you understand how I love my family. my neighbors and your faculty. He was as tender as a newly opened lily, one whose affections were deep. He was my friend, my bishop, my counsellor and my col- I May league, and I loved him. make my life better by having known him. is my prayer. The choir then sang O Grave, Where Is Thy Victory; O Death, Where Is Thy Sting? Brother Warnick desired to thank all those who had contributed to the funera lin any way and prayed that we may learn from seeing his life. Scott P. Stewart, a member of the Brother engineering society to whichthe benePartridge belonged, offered diction. The organist played Come, Come Ye Saints, composed by William Clayton while the huge congregation marched silently out. One of the largest corteges ever accompanying any funeral followed the body to the cemetery where the grave was dedicated by President J. William Knight.
