Legal Advertising young man (and sometimes not so youn'g a man) would stop to think before he fires away at a road sign, that his vandalism is actually endangering the life or lives of motorists who depend on these signs to tell them of the road ahead he would probably select some other just as good target for his markmanship and thus hasten materially the completion of the signing of our highways. WE NEED A JUNIOR COLLEGE V hile it was to be expected that there would be much opposition to the proposed junior college for the Uintah Basin, such opposition only calls for more concerted action on the part of Uintah Basin supporters. The point on which all work must be based, the unanswerable argument, is the fact that no section of the state is now in as great a need for a junior col-- r section of the state presents greater possibilities of realizing good from such an institution. This in spite of the fact that a map of Utah now shows a junior college at Trice, approximately 50 miles from Duchesne and less than 100 miles from the theoretical center of population of the basin.
