V Festival Chairman Highway Vineyard-Edgemo- nt Requires Immediate Attention Fall Festival Will Climax Seasons Play and Sports; Grand Prize to Wards (EDITORIAL) Seveial years ago the State Legislature included the east-wes- t highway from Vineyard to Edgemont as a part of the state highway system. Shortly after this was done the State Road Commission undertook improvements on the highway. The road was put in a more passable condition and that part of it from the Lincoln High School west to Vineyard was prepared for oiling. The road from the High School to the west edge of the Bench was oiled, the remainder being left covered with heavy loose gravel. At the present time this highway should receive further consideration from the State Highway Commission because of the unsafe condition of the heavily graveled portion. It is understood that commitees from the various communities involved have met with the County Commissioners of Utah County and received assurances of their support in uiging the State Road Commission to finish the highway as originally planned and at least oil the gravelled Superintendent Gourley Announces This Years List of Teachers in Lincoln District, Banks and Jolley Head High Schools, Hebertson at Spencer By Karl Banks With an enlarged faculty to instudent struct the body, Lincoln High School will begin the seveteenth academic year New faces will appear in the faculty of the Lincoln Senior with the registration of students at 9:00 a. m., Monday, September 6.

A delegation of interested citizens, it is understood, will meet with the State Road Commission in a short time carrying with them the recommendation of the Utah County Commission to aid them in their plea for immediate action on this highway. It is to be hoped the State Road Commission will consider favorably the request to be made. There are approximately 5,000 people in the territory to be served by this highway and it surely deserves more attention than it has recently received.

It was found that so many events had been scheduled and it was necessary to eliminate part of them because of lack of time. The donkey game was crowded out due to the press of so many events. The program in the evening and dance were eleminated by who brought the Jupe Pluvis usual rain which was intended for Friday but came one day late. Vineyai J won the ball game from soft ball Windsor. The game went to the High Council, although the ladies put up an exciting scrap. Thirty dollars in prizes were distributed to the swimmers and divers. Competition was very keen in these events.

If sor topples Timpanogos, or Lake view should put one over on this coming Saturday, it will place Windsor safely over the top. But if Timpanogos wins one wins one and and Pleasantview loses one, it will tie up these two teams for second place. That is the forecast of those who have studied the relative strength of the teams. But of course, the forecasters will have to wait, with the rest of us, for the final games are not yet over. Several things may happen. Picture For Prize.

Due to heavy winter freezing last year, the fruit crops are under par and it was thought that a creditable exhibit could not be assembled.

Mr. Rasmussen is a son of George Rasmussen who served as for so many years. The have already taken Rasmussens charge of the building and grounds. Some improvements in the care of the building which have been inaugurated under the new management are already apparent in the The program is outlined as follows: (1) Go personally to the Temple at regular intervals, at least once each month for those who live near a temple, or once each year, at least, for those who live at a distance from one. (2) Contribute in Cash, if possible, funds to assist in defraying expenses of those who officiate in endowments for the dead. With this contribution they may submit a list of names of the dead to be sent to the Temple in their Temple Dis-t- r it, upon the basis of one name for each 50c paid. The genealogical worker will make out a receipt tr. triplicate, leave one receipt with the donor, and deliver the other two receipts and the prepared sheets to the chairman of the Ward Endowment Committee.

At the Temple these names will be distributed to proxies entitled to such assistance under this plan, who will be paid at the rate of' 50c for each endowment. On completion of the endowments the temple sheets will be returned to the original donor who furnished them. Produce and Cash (3) Contribute in produce, if cash is nut available, for a similar purpose. The ward worker will report to his Bishop the produce available from each donor.

These improvements will be greatly appreciated and will make the heating plant one of the best in the county. It has already operated very efficiently, but the furnace was hardly heavy enough to withstand the heat generated by the coke which has been used in recent years.
