Committee of Taxpayers of Hyrum. The Town Doctor S A YS J The vital problem that confronts every1 community today is one of selling. It has always been one of selling but In the past, probably of less import ance, since most towns could get by on the rising market, so to speak. A few years ago store keepers thought of their business as many now think of their community. They thought because their store had been in existence for years, it would always be; there were people, and people had to buy what the store carried in stock. Then came automobiles and good roads free mail delivery, radio, telephone and merchants. With the coming of these, store keepers and clerks had to become merchants and sales people, or lose their business to those who were. Because for ages past comparatively no constructive attention has been paid to community building, community planning, selling and analysis, it is often considered as unnecessary. Many people reason that because there always have been cities, towns and villages, there always will be, the same as some retailers still think of their store as a supply depot where people who have a definite idea of what they want, will get it without invitation from them or encouragement or service from the clerk. You know what happens to store keepers who refuse to be merchants who do not sell. The same will happen to towns and communities who take a like attitude. as cof This is a Selling Age. There isnt a business, a profession, or a job, that doesnt require some form of selling. Every married man was a salesman when he induced her to say yes. And the wise married man hasnt quit selling! Every married woman sells sometimes, and how! She has to, to make life bearable. The shebas and the shieks are constantly selling. You and I are selling. We may not carry a sample case, we may not be behind the counter, but we are everlastingly selling something an idea, ourselves, or perhaps a friend. When you ask for a raise, a day off, a little more credit, or any favor or courtesy, you are selling. Someone said, Selling is giving the other fellow a reason why he should do what you want him to do or not do, and salesmanship is getting' him to do it. Community selling is getting other people to think your town is a better place in which to invest their money for a factory, a business, an enterprise, for real estate, merchandise or any of those things that will materially benefit. Community salesmanship is doing those things that will induce them to do it, and avoiding those things that will keep them from doing it. You are a salesman or a saleswoman for the place where you live. You are working on a commission basis; you get paid according to what you do, and you will get paid, and generously. You do not have to own real estate, 'operate a store, be a professional man or in any business, to profit from community growth and expansion, but even if you didnt make a dime actual cash out of it, it is worth the effort to enjoy better, more interesting and attractive surroundings, to have better schools, more parks, etc., which are bound to come as a result of selling your community not considering the satisfaction you get out of doing something for the good of all something that you know, you ought to do. IMPROVEMENTS MADE n Monday night, April 22nd. It appears to the writer to be an attempt on the part of the Utah Power anc Work on the Public Park, particuLight Co. to defeat the Bond Election the on 27th. coming larly on and near the Lincoln School I believe the question as to grounds, is progressing favorably un- whether we should build a new plant or sell to the Utah Power and Light, is definitely settled with the people of Hyrum. On Feb. 18th, a public mass meeting was held, and by a unanimous vote the Mayor and City Council was authorized to go ahead with the Bond Election, aud make reparations for the construction of a new plant. Attempts have been made since that time by the big Corporation, to influence different citizens of Hyrum take up the propoAs I understand it, they atsition. tempted to make an through the Lions Club, but failed, and now apparently have won favor with some of our citizens and taxpayers in calling the proposed meeting. Every voter and taxpayer should vote down any and all proposals that come from that source. The sale of our plant and the granting of a franchise to the big Company, would place this community in bondage to them for ever after. Taxes would on city property, the first jump year they would operate here. Their own figures are to the effect that it will cost Hyrum city $5,000 per year to light our streets as they are today. This money would have to be raised by direct taxation, which would mean an additional levy of 6 mills. I can safely refer to Logan and Brigham City, as worthy examples ol communities who in recent years have built new electric plants, Brigham Citys rate is 6 cents per K, W., Logan is 5 cents and the Utah to a fight against d 1 ....

Tbe parking on the south of the grounds, between the curb and gutter and the sidewalk pavement has been leveled, planted to lawn and trees planted. The old poplar grove has been removed, the ground plowed, leveled and sowed to lawn, and in a few days, a grove of hardwood trees will he set out. The Lions Club Officers and Committee deserve the thanks of the community for putting the finishing touches on the park. Another item necessary to complete this undertaking, was the laying of additional water pipes for the sprinkling system along the sidewalk and on the southeast corner of the park ; this has also been accomplished. It will- not he long until we may boost of one of the most artistic and attractive City Parks in the county. Let us all take a pride in its upkeep, and in protecting it from vandalism and destruction. - Many pessimists predicted that we would never accomplish it, and many who were enthusiastic in the beginning dropped out or were pushed out, and new supporters were called in to fill the ranks ; and now we shall soon be able to say the battle is won, and the conquerers will receive their laurels, and those who fell in the struggle should he given credit also. It has been no one man's work, hut the heroic effort of many. Power is 9 cents. Logan and Brigham City are making money and gradually paying off their bonded indebtedness. Hasnt our own little plant done the same? It was only a few years ago that a new set of machinery was installed in it, and a bond was voted for some $20,000. It has been paid now for about five years, and yet their was no material raise in taxes to do it. The earnings of the plant did it. Now we are to bond for $45,000, and will have 20 years to pay that off. Dont yoa think Mr. Citizen that a new plant is capable of doing it? ' For several years past we have had a taste of Utah Power and Light service. It has been to the tune of $3,000 a year whether we used that much juice or not. If the peak load was reached for 5 minutes during the year, we paid for that amount for the entire year.
