Rain Didnt Stop Sharon Even the bogey of rain did not of the the enthusiasm dampen more than 700 Sharon stake and n ward ofticers who gathered at afternoon and Wednesday as the evening for the outing guests of the Stake Presidency, . The afternoon festivities began with swimming in the pool and al-st ended with swimming in the pool. So fascinated were some, of the water addicts, that it almost required the sounding of Taps" to get them out. A soft ball game between the Relief Society stake officers and Waid officers and members was one of the interesting features on the larne' la WIT near the highway.

Cluff concerning the gardening project of the Teton Stake in and around Driggs, Idaho. Two hundred and forty acres of peas have been planted as a church Security Project and are being taken care of by Church worke-s- . The peas are just coming on now. They will be picked, packed in ice and shipped by the carload back to New York and Kastern markets, wlieic they will be sold in the pod on fresh markets. More than 500 carloads are shipped out of this community each year, but this is the first attempt made by the Church to raise peas for any purpose. Peas which are not placed on the fresh market will be allowed to ripen and used for seed. and forty The two hundred acre section has been Church property for some time, but due to the lack of water it has not been utilized. A small amount of experimental work was done last year, with favorable results, so this year, three large wells were drilled from which the lands are irrigated when flood waters are gone. Prospects look good, states Mr. Cluff, for a bounteous harvest. The project has been an immense undertaking, and if it works out well, it will open a new field in agricultural endeavor in that section, as there are hundreds of acres of land similar to that now being utilized in the Church project, which have not heretofore been under cultivation. TAKES BIG JUMP Orem Merchants Discuss Closing Ros-alaw- see-sa- THERMOMETER On Sundays Ofent merchants held a meeting Monday night at the Sharon Stake administration building for the purpose of considering what, if any action should be takenu with respect to the Sunday closing law. Sheriff Durnells recent action in ordering all places closed under the state law has precipitated a crisis with many of these merchants in Orem. Matters with respect to the enforcing of the law and the injustice inflicted upon merchants ot the community as compared with those excepted from the Sunday dosing, such as confection stands, drug sto-e- s, etr , were discussed. Mavor Emery McKellip and Dean Park were selected as a committee to represent the group in or not an injunction should be sought enjoining the County Attorney and other officers from enforcing the law until such- time as it bad been tested in the Supreme Court It was brought out that a contemplated action testing the law is underway in Salt Lake County. It appeared from the discussion that most of the grocery stores were in favor of Sunday closing, but the fruit stands are the particular ones that are hurt in the Orem locality. It was declared that Sunday was the best day for these stands to dispose of their products. Mayor Emery McKellip presided at the meeting which was attended by practically every merchant in Orem, as well as Mayor McKellip and other members of the Town Board. considcr-Tng"v?heth- er - Three ,da s of high temperature enthusiasm registered on the Utah Valley Hospital thermometer on the Provo Commercial and Savings Bank building to the extent of $17,716 00 This was the result of three days of intensive work by the solicitors tor this project.

Why Wait? "With this sort of a beginning, declared Secretary-TreasurClaythere is no reason ton Jenkins, why the drive will have to continue until October first. It can be, and it should be finished many days before that time. Mr. Jenkins also declared that the Commonwealth Fund architect is ready to draft plans immediately upon word being received that the local contributions are Veady. The sooner the drive is over, the quicker actual construction of the hospital will begin, and judging from the present enthusiasm and support work should begin early this fall on this much merited project. An organization in Sharon and Orem will undoubtedly be formed and the people of, these communito do ties given an opportunity their bit to help build the beautiful Utah Valiev Hospital. -- Tfoses andThorns from'rRosalalm Fund architects e Thousands Yet On Government Relief Of interest to workers and employees alike is a letter received by President David O.

The fact that the children will not be allowed to remain in swimming more than an hour unless parents request otherwise., is also pleasing.
