Show 7 y Azwy VAV TENTH YEAR H V ' SAUNA, UTAH, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 23, 1927 $160,000 for Canyon Branch During 1928 Examination Three hundred and fifty students of the. junior high and ''the grade schools pf Salina, have undergone "a close inspection by the county school nurse, Miss Laura G. Willes, during the past three weeks, and at the completion of the. inspection Miss Willes declares the pupils to be above the normal as .compared with other ' schools in the county, as regards re- - J ' medial defects., During her stay here Miss .Willes inspected for eye defects, teeth and throtit trouble. Teeth, she declared, showed more defects than any of the members examined, arrd students were advised to make more frequent visits to the . dentist and to apply the tooth brush more vigorously. Of the 700 eyes tested, only a few defects were , found. stat-.e- d, nurse the inspecting Teachers, are required to i uake daily inspections to detect, if possible, any abnormal conditions or the .lurking in the system, of any contagious diseases. And especial attention should be given by parents to notes of instructions and advice sent to the home by the nurse. If this is religiously adhered to, Salina can boast of and sixty thousand dollars has been apportioned by the Denver. & Rio Grande Railway company officials, as the amount to be used during 1928 for the completion of the branch line uu Salina canyon, are the official advices which have been received in Salina. This amount is in excess of that allotted when the four-yebuilding program was first made. Less than $400,000 was first set aside, but with the for the coming year, the total will be near $500,000. It is officially stated, also, that when work is again resumed in the spring, the grading and rail laying will be completed by the middle of the summer, and ready for operation. A barrier, however, will likely prevent operation of any rolling stock, as President Pyeatt has declared that he will not' attempt to operate trains through the canyon until highway travel is given ample protection at the many dangerous crossings which were necessary in building the railroad. The bridge spanning Salina creek for the railroad has been completed, and trains are now opreating over it, rails being hauled to the end of the line daily. A crew of thirty-seve- n men, under the direction of A. Barnes, roadmaster, and C. N. Anderson, section foreman, is laying rail that every day. It is announced this work will be continued during the present campaign, until Rattlesnake hill is reached, five miles up the canyon. The Utah Construction company, having the contract for grading for the railroad company, will complete the grading within work is resumed after ninety days in the spring. Both the construction company and the railroad gang, excepting those laying rail, have suspended work for the winter, the extreme bad weather resulting in this decision. However, all will be in readiness for resumption of work at the earliest possible moment when conditions will permit next spring. With the completion of the railroad building, and unless action is taken by the state road commission and the bureau of public roads, activities will be at a standstill. President Pyeatt has declared that he will One hundred ar . having the healthiest and happiest students of Southern Utah. The state educational law requires the record of each childs weight be reported to the parent each month. Each child has the right to good health, and when they are more than ten per cent overweight or more than ten per cent underweight, parents should have them examined by the family physician to determine the d cause. Statistics show that of the children of the United States are ten per cent underweight, and for this reason nurses are employed to make inspections and give advicce, that the coming generations will be more fit to fight the- - battles of life. one-thir- .

To allow the running of trains, President Pyeatt has declared, would be treacherous and murderous, as the numerous blind curves would serve as death only traps to the thousands of travelers through the canyon both Salina and winter and summer. Southern Utah can not afford to have any interference with the progress and development of the vast resources, and if some action is not soon taken those responsible for the highway conditions will hear a blast that will resound all over the state. In a bill introduced by Congressman Colton, in the national congress, it asks that amendments be made to the federal roads act by authorizing special appropriations for building highways across government lands in the western states. The bill would appropriate more than $10,000,000 to be used in a period of years. It is to be hoped that H. H. Blood, head of the ptate road commission, and the heads of the bureau of public roads, will cast aside the selfish attitude for Southern Utah, and work to the end of havjng sufficient of this fund set aside for building a good road thru Salina canyon, for the reason that it is the only one highway over the mountain range that Is passable the year round.
