Mayor Mark Anderson pledged the support of Provo city to the Sons of Uth Pioneers in their campaign, and delivered a forceful addriss on methods by which the objective be reached of making Utahs Hundredth birthday an occasion when all could point with pride to Utah as the Beauty Spot of America. Government agencies, federal, atate and local all Indicate their willingness to cooperate with the S. U. P., and unitedly agree that the program for the next nine years is worthy of the best effort of the best citizens of every community. Federal agencies point to tbe fact that by 1947 tbe roads and trails of our National Parks and National Forests will be well advanced, and playgrounds throughout Utah will be readily accessible. Recreation for all, with room and comfort for all visitors will characterize Utahs nrt Utah thy should become the mecca for touriRts, for it has been blessed with enormous scenic resources. Mayor Anderson believes that millions, literally millions of peojile will visit Utah by 1947 and advises every community to dress up for the occasion. Casting about Provo tor beauty spots 'the mayor finds meny mondern and pretenious homes with beautiful lawns and gardens. He notes also many more inexpensive homes which are being Well kept and are beautiful to have the Some Bee. people touch to make of a modest n hie residence a place of jeauty, he observed. The fact Is that the charm of a beantiful home can be had without much money, as many Provo residents are proving all the time. Trees Should Be Preserved Provo has many fine tfees, as one finds In most Mormon communities, added Mayor Anderson, as he regretted that It ofen seems necessary to remove or mutilate some of these old tree specimens in the city. Trees express fine personalities, and Provo shows a distinctive Individuality In its trees. We should preserve as many of onr trees as possible. We have a tree ordinance, 'but It is not our purpose to be too rigid or formal. We should not copy other communities, but let us be ourselves within reasonable limits. Our trees are characteristic of Provo, commented the mayor aa he told of his success in keeping one person from chopping down a lovely old tree which happened for the time being to be in his way, but which bad been for many long years a land mark in tbe community. Provo has between 50 and 60 tree species growing around the city, and many of them have a pioneer history surrounding them. They are beantiful as well as useful, and have entwined around them much of sentiment as well as history, symbolic in many instances of the sturdy characters who brought the seeds across the plains to Utah that these valleys might be made fit abodes for the coming generations, continued Mayor Andercould pl&y-gro- 1' nu-gi- c son. Improvements Needed While much may be pointed out with pride in Provo, yet much remains to be done if the Sons of Utah Pioneers are to acheve their 1947 objective, urged the mayors ' "Waterworks, sewer and street Improvements are now under way to the which are fundamental health and beauty of the city.

Plainly Of Duties Toward Youth President Clark Make$ Official Statement Re Teaching Purposes in Church Institutions Teachers in the Mormon church school system, whether in the Brigham Young university, church academies and institutes or in the stake seminaries, were advised definitely perhaps even warned, by President J. Rueben Clark Jr. of the First Presidency, that their primary duty is to teach the principles of the gospel to the youth of the church in of what was considered an official pronouncement the First Presidency, at the Church seminary system assembly this week at Aspen Grove. courage, to declare your testi-mouthe intellectual courage to affirm principles, beliefs, and faith that may not always be found as harmonizing with such knowledge, sci ntific or otherwise, as his educational colleagues may believe they possess, he added. President Clark further warned against members, whether they y; be teachers, or others, going to other places for special training which may supposedly be the most modern view, and then returning to dose it upon the members at home without any thought of whether the people need it or not. In whatever lelates to real, every-dapractical religion, we are far in the van of Before effort is made humanity to Inoculate us with new ideas, experts should kindly consider whether their efforts to impose these upon ns is not a rather crude, even gross anaenronism, he concluded a .Funds for educational purposes appropriated by the Church are justified only when a vitalized teaching of the gospel follows, averred President Clark, and a colorless instruction in elementary ethics is no substitute for the real purpose back of the seminary system. Doubt Most Not Be Planted y, Doubt must not be planted in the hearts of youth warned the speaker. The youth of the chnrch are hungry for things of the spirit; they are eager to learn the gospel, and they want It straight, undiluted. Great Is the burden and the condemnation of any teacher who sows doubt fn a trusting soul. Tso great elements in all Latter-DaSaint teaching of the y are essential, without gospel which there is neither reason nor excuse for the church teaching religion at all: FTrst, that Jesus is the Christ; and Second, that Joseph Smith was Gods prophet. The students of seminaries and institutes should of course be taught the ordinary canons of good living, but they shonld also be taught the great principles involved in eternal life, the priesthood, the resurrection, and many other like things that go far beyond the ord.nary ethical canon", urged President Clark.
