Thus streets are numbered as being east or west of State street aud north or south of the monument at Temple Square on State street. .The County system thus places Murray as about 4 0 block south of Salt Lakes starting point, ana Draper 3 HO blocks, and the same num- continues on to the Point of the Mountain where Salt Lake county ends. Salt Lake City is the County seat for that county, and so in Utah county Provos two streets, University avenue and C inter street would become the base and meridian for all numbering streets in Utah county, whether In Orem or Springville, or any other town or city which would adopt the plan, according to Dr. Lymans explanation and the recommendation of the Sons of ,he btah Pioneers, Otexus streets would thus giu at l?.th North, and every-hand- s thing in Orem would be number-toaed from that street NORTH of Provo. There would be no SOUTH streets In Orem. Similar- ly the major portion of Orem would be WEST of University avenue as the beginning line, and all would be numbered according to First, Second, Third, etc., Vest street.

It is this kind of faith that built this community and every other community. Do you remember how the pessimist ridiculed Brigham Young when he proposed to build Zion in these Rocky Mountains? "It never can be done they said, people will starve to death before the end of the first year. Thank God for the courage of those pioneer leaders. The doubters laughed at F. W. Wool worth when he stores. "The mans crazy they started his to leave the said, goods out on counters in plain sight. will him blind by the end of the first week. steal People Woolworth had faith that the huge majority of people are honest and his faith was proved. Within a few years he was a millionaire. It has been a real revelation in building our Community Auditorium and Theatre to find that the majority of our citizens still have faith and confidence. We used David Rowley merely as a representative type of citizens who are responthe many sible for the growth and development of our community, and the surprising thing is that it is in the homes of these people where you find real happiness. The homes of the doubters and skeptics and let the other fellow do it if he is crazy enough are without exception unhappy homes and as a rule this type of people are miserable with themselves. ss 84th Anniversary Saturdays Program lems can be discussed. Yesterday David L. Rowley came to the Scera office with his second $50 to invest in bonds. Besides this he has donated days of work with his team on the High Priests project and is always willing to drop his work and to come and help in any emergency even though he has the full responsibility of his farm and plenty of places to put his money. Are you sure it will pay back says the pessimist to David. Of course it will pay he answered, "already it has paid big returns. Every time I see this big beautiful community building I get so proud to know that I have helped to build it. As far as I am concerned, I wouldnt worry if I never get the money back. The pleasure of coming to such a nice building will be interest enough, but I still know that I will get my money back perhaps when I need it worse than now. honest-to-goodne- Grandma Bunnell To Be Honored On PRACTICE (By VICTOR C.
