Show FT E SPANISH FORK, UTAH, THURSDAY, APRIL 16th, 1925 VOLUME XXIV v Dr. Barker Pleases Plenty of Material LIVE STOCK SHOW For Baseball Team With Address Sunday Coolidge Giants NUMBER 16 Utah Leads Nation In College Education '' II BIGJUCGESS That Spanish Fork can put on an stock show, honest to goodness was clearly demonstrated last Friday when the First Annual Utah County Live Stock Show was held here. The principal portion of the credit for the success of fhe show Is duo to he efforts of Dr. G. C. Taylor, who lias worked for, talked about and we supposed dreamed about the show for the past two months. All the committees have worked hard, also, and they are certainly to be complimented for the really remarkable show which was the result of their efforts. A show of this sort is bound to become an annual institution, and this city is the logical place In which it should be held. inMany outside exhibitors were duced to put cattle on display at the show here last week, and all of thorn think so well of the treatment received, and the hospitality of Spanish Fork that they are already laying plans for bigger and better exhibits of cattle next year. Principal among the visiting exhibitors was John Seeley and Sons of Mt. pleasant, whose load of thoroughbred Shorthorns nearly swept the prize table clear in that division. In this herd were shown the senior and junior champion bulls of the Short-in horn congress show at Chicago January. The junior sire also took the grand championship at that bhow. Price Brothers of Provo, with their splendid herd of Jerseys was a point of interest in the show. A banquet was given during the noon hour at the Hansen building to more than 300 visiting stockmen, business men and stock men of Spanish Fork. Dr. G. C. Taylor was the toastmaster. A. O. Smoot of Frovo, countycom-missioneexpressed the hope that the cattle men of the county would show a similar enthusiasm three cr four times yearly to help place the cattle business of the country on the map. He declared that the county had some of the choicest cattle to be found anywhere, but that the people lacked the enthusiasm to "tell the world what they had. C. G. Adney of Corinne and a member of the board of trustees of the Utah Agricultural College, complimented Spanish Fork on the fine showing. He said that although the cattlemen had labored under the most adverse circumstances during the past few years, that they have met the obstacles with fortituduo and that now a brighter future is in store. He urged the cattlemen to pay more attention to the pedigree of the cattle and to improve it continually. The value of livestock exhibitions was told by John Seeley who also spoke highly of the hospitality shown by the management of the show and the people of Spanish Fork. Prof. Clawson Y. Cannon of the Young Uniersity spoke of the advantages that some communities have He enjoyed from the cattle business. urged the farmers not to go too far away from home to purchase stock but to look around and see if they cannot do better at home. He warned the live, stock men to get away from the idea that because a cow is imported, she must needs be better than any that is produced in Utah. He sited many instances to prove his point. Lew Mar Price of Frovo substantiated the statements of Professor Cannon and quoted one of the bailing rattle experts in the nation as taking that Utah had some of the b.t cattle to be found anywhere iu (he r, The baseball bug seems to have bitten practically everybody In this city severely during the pant week or two, and the way things are shaping right at the present reading if the minutes it looks as though Spaaun Fork were going to be very much on the map in the Utah Central League this year. At the meeting of committeemen held last Thursday evening at the American Legion rooms, the names of thirty-si- x candidates tor the team were presented, and James Anderson was selected as temporary manager to got the team Into shape. A snappy practice was held Mouday evening at the high school campus. The committee which is working out the details of Spanish Forks participation consists of M. D. Warner, Jr., representing the City Council; F. J. Faux, representing the Kiwanls Club: Dr. F. It. Frampton, representing the Itotary Club; Joseph E. Nelson, representing the American Legion and F. L. Stewart, representing the buriness men. This committee and the ball players have agreed that if the business people will provide for some necessary paraphernalia and transport the players to the games away from home they will play for the gate receipts. The paraphernalia necessary to be bought will not be In excess of $100 the committee thinks. ANDREW DUDLEY DIES AT JENSEN Mr. and Mrs. Silas II.

Barker addressed a y large crowd at the City Pavilion evening upon the subject, I ho Dr, Barker Road to Happiness. In the course of his remarks gave five rules for acquiring happiness as The belief that the Indian does not show emotion, that be does not register Joy and sorrow, was disproved during the making of the Paramount picture "The Thundering Herd, by Zane Grey. While filming the buffalo hunt and the stampede scenes for the picture a group of Araphoe Indians, also taking part in the production, stood behind the camera and watched the action. When the buffalo thundered across the plains in one bellowing mass, tears gathered in the eyes of the red men. The Araphos, loaned to Paramount from the government reservation In Wyoming, were transported to the location in Yellowstone Park. It was the first time In over thirty years any of them had seen a bison. When the players rode into the maddened herd, the Indians actually cried. Among those watching the scene wsb Chief aged 72, who took part in many real buffalo killings during tbe late sixties and early seventies. The Chief, an historical character of note, portrays the bame role in "The Thundering Herd that he played in real life fifty years ago. In rounding up the herd of buffalo for the picture, the entire camp of Indians assisted. Despite the fact that they could not come In contact with the animals for more than thirty ycarg, th e Indians showed more skill In herding the buffalos than most white men. Featured In the cast of "The Thundering Herd are Jack, Lois Wilson, Noah Beery and Raymond Hatton.

The article was written by Mr. George F. Zook, Chief of the Division of Higher Education of the U. S. Bureau of Educatin, who spends his time gathering and compiling official statistics for government information. According to Mr. Zooks figures, Utah is first with one student for every 99 persons in the state. Oregon is next with one student for every 121 persons in the state, while Nebraska comes third with one student for every 126 people. The average for the entire country is one student for every 212 .persons in population, so that Utah is far ahead of the average. It is also Interesting to note that the State University, with an enrollment of approximately 2700 students, is educating over half of the total number of college students In (he state, that is more than the other schools combined. In looking over the ratings of tbe various states, it Is noticeable that the first twelve ranking states, with the exception of the District ot Columbia, are all west ot the Mississippi River, Also these twelve states John G.

Mr. Zook says; I take W llbur. It that the residents of tbe western states may take pride In the fact that they lead the older states In the proportion of their population which is obtaining a college education. With this In view, the people ot Utah may be doubly proud In knowing that their own state Is leading all the rest and that comparltlvely speaking, After a brief conference held in more people In Utah are striving for a college education than In any other the Governors office Saturday after- place in the United States. noon, Governor George II.
