Show HOPE ; 9ii. SpsaKixiQ -- zx Qnaii No. 38 f S jj H jj By G. B. S. J Wise and Otherwise A column of comment s .Relief Society and M. I. A. One wonders why all the hue and cry about so many Californians being hired by he contractors on the Deer Creek Project when It Is discovered that only about S3 Californians are now working and these are all key men. The remainder of the or force are from Utah, about 7 from Sharon. Officials In charge state that that the proportion of Californians to Utahns on the Job will decrease very rapidly as soon as the signal Is given and It is possible to put on' a large crew. e And by the way. It's worth going miles to see the speed with which the contractors move on the Deer Creek Job when they once get going. It would do some W. P. A. foremen and a lot of other construction managers as well, a lot of good to spend 20 minutes watching the giant rater-pillar- s, steam shvels and trucks move around. Only the other day this observer saw at caterpillar hanging on the side of the mountain poshing dirt down to a steam shove which fcs two bites would load a track. Three tracks were on the Job keeping the steam shovel going. Hundreds of tons of earth were moved, dun bed into the place which was being filled, and spread out all within a few n.inntes. The action was so rapid and continuous one had to rub his eyes to believe It was really happening. Seen travelling around Sharon: The greatly improved .appear- ance of Sharon-Uta- h Cannery grounds. Charles Poulson has certainly done a fine Job In landscaping the front yard. . . . Sharon School has also taken on a greatly improved appearance with the new lawns and shrubery, PatL rons who backed the project deserve the congratulations they are receiving from those who have a memory of the desert-lik- e strips In the front and rear of this Rhobocks floral building gardens are a sight worth going miles to see, and one look at the beautifully arranged flowers and shrubs arranged so artistically is not enough. It grows on one to spend an hour or two studying the combinations of colors and arrangement. . . . The new attractive fence Installed at the Rosalawn Pavilion. It really looks fine In its eoat of white paint, and actually makes one curious when the lights are on and the music playing, to see what's on the other side. ....Not so pleasing are the shacks transplanted along the state highway north from the high school; also the tumble-dow-n few remaining fences which neither keep animals in nor out, hut do give any-thing hut a favorable impression to the tourists passing through the country. By tlie way, no finer project could he undertaken by the Chamber of Commerce than to take up missionary work with the otynrrs of these fences to see if they cannot get them removed this season. Down Lakevlew and Vineyard way one is impressed with the beautiful landscaping on the new chapel grounds In both of these wards. Such fine monuments cannot help but Impress citizens to likewise beautify their homes. Sort of a silent sermon, more effective than speeches. Affer all the discouraging indications, strawberry growers in many sections of the district are finding that the crop Is turning out to be much better tnan expected.

Further cooperation is needed also In case of alarm being spread, asks Mr. Jarman, In that no call is made to the Provo city fire department unless seen to be absolutely necessary.

That more than 4 out of every Americans have l)ad to forego medical care, at some time, be cause costs of present-da- y treatment is one of the startling facts disclosed by the survey. Other outstanding facts are: That a majority of Americans would be willing to pay some fixed charge by the month or year is they coaid be assured of complete medical and hospital care; That about one voter in three says he is willing to pay what some health associations have found to be a satisfactory charge, 32 per month per person. As stated by Dr. Gallnp, the survey Indicates clearly the existence of a great market for a new principle in medical care the principle of group health insurance. He also points out that the middle income groups in the United States are in urgent need of such a system to bring regular medical care within their reach. It has been found, for instance, o can buy all the that the medical care and attention they need, and that in a great many parts of the United States tbos with the lowest Income groups are usually well taken care of with both hospital and medical1 service. On the other hand, however, it was found that the white-collarmiddle group very often are unable to afford doctor bills and because of the cost they shun 10 0, 8.00 p. m.
