The gala event of the North Sevier High school, commencement exercises for the record number of thirty-sigraduates, is now history. The exercises were conducted last night, and as we had to go to press early this morning, it was technically impossible to print and publish a report that would do justice to so memorable an affair. If other circumstances and conditions will permit we will give a write-u- p appropriate for the occasion in our next issue. Today we only state that the High school auditorium was taxed to the limit to squeeze in all those who came to wdtness the festive proceedings and that the program was a real delight and source of satisfaction to everybody present. The high points of the program were the valedictory, Character Counts by Floyd Johnson, the Class Diagnosis by Lee Murphy, the Class Fantasy by Josephine Neilson, and above all the address to the graduates, delivered by one of the best orators of the state, a man high up in the councils of the state, and its largest city, a man with a heart beating in love for our students the citizens of tomorrow, Mayor C. Clarence Neslen of Salt Lake City. All the music numbers were given in a manner highly creditable and when S. M. Jorgensen, Salina member of the board of education presented the diplomas, each recipient of the coveted document was greeted by the large audience with a volley of applause that must have been heard for x blocks. Those who received their diplomas are: Reil Atkin, Benedict Barnard, Marion Bird, Lazellia Borg, Fay Bums, Vem V. Bums, J. Oral Christensen, Blanche Christopherson, Oth-y- a Crowther, Helen Gates, Monida Harward, Amelia Hugentobler, James Ovi Ivie, Carl Earlin Jensen, Floyd Johnson, Lloyd Johnson, Veneda Martin, Arietta Martin, Edward A.

Low-el-l Aus-ma- n BIG SUCCESS Large Crowd Gathers at City Hall Grounds to Witness the Physical Ed. Girls at Their Best. Did you say you were not at the Town Hall lawn Friday evening? If so you were one of the few who missed the educational and interesting festival which was given by the physical education girls on that night. It was meant for the crowning event of the year and it proved worthy of that commendation. The large crowd both sitting and standing highly enjoyed the entertainment which consisted of folk dances, a one act play and the winding of the May pole. The setting for the festival was uniquely arranged with electric lights, flowers, curtains and stands. Everything was so artistically blended, that it seemed a dream, as the fair maidens in their veriegated costumes appeared upon the stage, which was abundantly decorated with bright colored papei flowers. The dancing showed that much work had been done in the physical education department in order tc present such a delightful program. Ir addition to the dancing, some of the best talented public speaking students, presented a Chinese allegory Soul of the Great Bell and little Miss Isabella Young entertained the audience with an artistic toe dance. The whole program was highly entertaining and much credit is due to the director, Miss Van Johnstone, who through hard work made the festival such a big success. Miss Hilda Gates returned to her home this week after an extended visit in Salt Lake with friends and relatives. We read in the Richfield Reaper: Bryce Canyon will be formally opened for tourist traffic Monday, June 1, and all Utah counties from Sanpete south to the Arizona line will cooperate to make the formal opening a The necessary memorable event. plans were laid and preparations made Monday when a delegation of citizens of Panguitch appeared at the weekly Commercial club luncheon with the request that the Richfield club not only cooperate but also assist in making the necessary arrangements. The Panguitch delegation was composed of President S. A. Worthen of the Panguitch Cimmercial club, Secretary D. M. Todd, John C. Miller, M. Word Moody and Editor Bill Peters The of the Garfield County News. Richfield club willingly, gladly and unhesitatingly promised the required cooperation and assistance and Ferdinand Erickson, W. L. Warner, S. K. Heppler, Dr. M. Markus, J. F. Jonathan Lloyd and 0. C. Thur-be- r were appointed a committee to confer with the Panguitch delegates and work out detail plans. The two committees immediately after th e luncheon got together, perfected an organization, made a rough outline of the things to be done, and after a two hours recess to get in touch with other factors to be considered convened for another meeting in which the details were worked out. Ferdinand Erickson presided at the first meeting and after hearing on general plans from Messrs., Todd, Heppler, Martines, Thurber and Peters the committee organized with F. G. Martines as chairman, D. M. Todd, Sterling K. Heppler secretary and S. A. Worthen treasurer. It was decided to entrust a financial, entertainment and decoration, transportation, and publicity committee with the detail plans for a big celebration and to ask the D. & R. G. Western railroad to furnish a. special train to Marysvale to- accommodate people coming from the north counties. After recess Chairman Martines announced that the railroad company had declined to furnish a special train, and for the reason it was decided to invite those who wanted' to attend the opening to Richfiel d for Sunday evening and make Richfield the gathering and starting point': for those coming from the north. E arly Monday morning the guests and I ocal the trip to people will commence Bryce canyon, arriving in Pangui'tch about noon .there to attend a thiidy minutes welcoming program and then to proceed to the canyon where sifter solemn opening ample time will be given to the visitors to take their lunch, and if so desired, to return to Richfield the same day.

Mar-tine- s, n, - s m FI Graduates are Honored at Beautiful Sunday Thirty-si- x E1TI0N OF x splendid program given. Thirty-siyoung high school graduates were assembled before the pulpit grasping the valuable sermons delivered by some of the most learned and best talented men in the state. The services were conducted by Principal C. Ray Evans. The first number was a hymn, Lo, the Mighty God Appearing, furnished by the high school President James Arthur chorus. Christensen offered the invocation. Again the chorus sang Praise Ye, the Father after which Principal Evans gave a farewell address to the graduates. His subject was Courage; he spoke of the courage showm by the boys in the late war, and admonished the graduates to have courage in every undertaking in life, for wdthout courage one cannot succeed in life. His address was followed by a beautiful pianologue by Miss Van Johnstone, with Mrs. H. B. Crandall at the piano. Prof. Resse Griffith of the Snow Normal College played two beautiful violin selections, and then Mr. Evans introduced the principal speaker of the evening Professor Joseph W. Jenkins of the Snow Normal college. Mr. Jenkins chose as his subject Cleanliness, showing and proving by illustration that cleanliness was the greatest fundamental a graduate must have in order to reach his ideal in lifes adventures. After his appealing address the audience was entertained with a beautiful vocal solo by James C. Jensen. The anthem, Let the Hills and Vales Resound, by the high school chorus was the closing number after which Bishop G. M. Burr offered the benediction. All who attended were highly pleased with the splendid program. FIHES IS PLEI The U. S. forest service, through Ranger C. J. Olsen, requested us to inform the public that building of fires south of Fishlake and within the area known as Fishlake is strictly prohibited. It was absolutely neceto ssary to take this action in order prevent forest fires.

OF STATE VISITS Train Arrives Here 40 Minutes Salina Well Represented at Gath- Reports Full Satisfaction with Efforts Put Forth by Our Earlier, Leaves Seven Minutes ering Held at Mt. Pleasant on Boys and Girls Saturday. Later r The baccalaureate exercises for the North Sevier graduates were held at the Second ward chapel Sunday night, and people thronged the chapel and hallways, eagerly listening to the 49 L IE IL IWI Number After having strengthened the road bed on the Marysvale branch in places where it was weak, and having laid heavier rails, the D. & R. G. Western railroad rearranged the time table on this division in a way that will very much please the public in general and the business men of our city in particular. The improvement on road bed and rails made it possible that the trains could be somewhat accelerated and southbound trains from now on will gain 25 minutes, northbound trains 8 minutes. Coupled with an earlier leaving from Salt Lake City, at 8:15 instead of 8:30 in the morning, this arrangement brings the trains to Salina at 2:29 instead of at 3:49 as heretofore, ond those 40 minutes are very valuable for tourists, who come by train to Marysvale from there to continue their trip to the scenic wonders of southern Utah by automobile. They also are valuable to merchants who are receiving goods by express, as they can have them in their stores early enough to unpack and lay them out for sale the same afternoon and to business men who receive letters that ought to be answered immediately, because they can do so easily before they close office or store. ;.T The new time table went into effect Sunday and is as follows: Leaving Salina at 10:35 a. m. (formerly 10:41 a.m.), arriving in Salt Lake City at 4:45 (formerly 4:59); leaving Salt Lake City at 8:15 (formerly 8:30), arriving in Salina 2:29 (formerly 3:09). This train schedule is a considerable improvement, and the D. & R. G. Western railroad is deserving of our Better time compliments therefor. steel and better rolling stock-n- ew coaches were installed on the Marysvale division only a few months ago will make traveling over the line much more comfortable. Boy Injured By Fall From Tree Every club in the district except Malad, was represented at the third Annual International convention of Lions clubs, held at Mt. Pleasant Saturday. Salina was well represented, lions and lionesshaving twenty-fives in attendance. The meeting in the morning was under the direction of President L. R. Christensen of the Mt. Pleasant club. After the delegates were called to order invocation was offered by President S. M. Nielson. Community singing was directed by W. II. Terry of the music department of North Sanpete High school. Mayor R. H. Hinckley gave the address of welcome and a response was made by J. L. Myers, president of the Midvale club. District Governor A. 0. Treganza of Salt Lake was then introduced, who addressed the assemblage and gave a report of the activities of the clubs in the district. He was followed by a talk How Lionism Might be Made a Real Factor in Community Life, by Dr. Moses M. Nielson of Salt Lake City. William Coles, district secretary then reported that Salt Lake has the largest Lions club in the district and that Mt. Pleasant ranks second. The banquet for nearly three hundred Lions and Lionesses was served in the High school gymnasium at 7 oclock. Professor L. A. Peterson was toastmaster and responses were made by Duke Cherry of Gunnison, H. P. Peterson of Ephraim, E. H. Ellis of e Raybold, Wyoming, Dr. M. Nielson of Salt Lake City and Dr. Adam S. Ben-nio- n of Salt Lake. Musical numbers Vocal were furnished as follows: PeterL. and Robert Reynold duet, son of Ephraim; vocal solo, Miss Christie Clark, Mt. Pleasant; male quartet, James C. Jensen, Maynard Wright, M. I. Oveson and Arthur Prows, Salina; vocal solo, , Floyd Young, Mt. Pleasant; male quartet, W. H. Terry, Ernest Staker, George Squires and Floyd Young, Mt. Pleasant. During the banquet prizes were awarded in which President Leo Merrill won the prize of being the most practical Lion in the district. Nine other prizes were given prominent Lions. A big dance in the Armory hall concluded the days festivities. ; Lions from Salina who attended were: Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Prows, Mr. and Mrs. Emmett Robins, Mr. and D. P. Murray, specialist in boys and club work from the extension girls service of the Utah Agricultural College, spent four days of last week visiting among boys and girls club leaders in Sevier county. Visits were made to the following clubs in the different towns in the county: Mariam Jackson, Orphan Lamb Club, Salina; Elliot Crane, Beef Calf Club, Salina; Monida Harward, First Year Sewing, Aurora; Alma Ward, Poultry Club, Keith Peterson, Sugar Richfield, Beets, Richfield; Mercedes Poulson, First Year Sewing, Richfield; Sadie Ogden, First Year Cooking, Richfield; Myrtle Lorentzen, Second Year Sewing, Elsinore; Wendell Anderson, Corn Club, Elsinore; Heber Winget, Sheep Club, Monroe; Paul Leavitt, Orphan Lambs, Joseph. Mr. Murray reports that he is very well pleased with the efforts being put forth by the club leaders throughout the county. This group of leaders are the ones who went to Logan in March and took a Weeks training on how to conduct a boys and girls club during the summer. Boys and girls club work is a definite part of the American system of extension work in agriculture and home economics. It provides an opportunity for boys and girls ten years of age and over, under intelligent and sympathetic leadership, to put on demonstrations in their own communities designed to show better practices in farming and home making. Such work is proving a good thing for the communities in which it is being conducted and a good thing for the boys and girls who take part in it. The evidence is found in young men and women who were club members ten years ago and who are now assuming their places in the affairs of men throughout the United States. Club work endeavors to promote ownership and thrift among the boys and girls. It encourages them to save and stay on the farm to help father and mother make a success of it. Niels Andreason, the nine year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Thorvel Andreason, met with a serious accident Monday afternoon when he fell from a tree onto the concrete.
