WE WONDER: has happened to the Orem Chamber of Commerce. Or has anything happened? If there is any truth to the rumor that a certain school bus driver doesn't stop when he pulls onto the state highway. How long the Utah Power and Light steam plant will be out of operation. Why the prtical plan of financing the community auditorium proposed by Sharon at the recent mass meeting should not have been thought of a long time ago. Orem to Stage Exhibition Games, February 11 In a drive to raise funds for the financing of the basketball team Orem has scheduled three basketball games to be played In the Lincoln High gym. Saturday, Feb. 11. Admission will be 15c for children and 25c for adults. Two of the fastest teams in the Recreational League have been procured for one tilt. A faBt team will be selected to oppose the Orem five and the Orem town officials vs.- - the Orem Chamber of Commerce will provide the thrills In the other game. Last week our curiosity got the better of us and we asked the question, in substance, why was Orem named Orem, and how long will It remain that way? It appears that there are many people wondering the same thing. When we pick up our local papers and find several wards which we know are a part of Orem listed under the local head it makes us wonder if after all the present name Is all that It ought to be. One suggestion we have heard is that Windsor would be a good successor to Orem". Without attempting to start something, that last suggestion might be worth thnking about or perhaps you may have others. If you do, drop a line to G. B. S., care of Voice of Sharon. OF SOME IMPORTANCE: The chiseling away of Pleasant View and Grandview area by Provo City. - The chain of seem to le something like tills: Provo City owns the water; the people of these local); ties want to sell land for new .homes; the buyers will not buy without culinary water; Provo won't take on any new sen ice outside of the city. Xiee clever way of making additions, It seems. Alpine School District should be considerably concerned over these piecemeal subtractions from Its area, or one of these fine days it will wake np and find a big school plant on Its hands with a large part of It revenue gone, together with a third of its students. We wonder why Pleasant View and Ldgemont do not Incorporate under Utah's liberal town Incorporation laws, make a deal with Orem and Provo, and furnish themselves with water?

Assembly Programs Outstanding programs during the aeek were the general assemblies held daily at 2 p. m. Prominent Church leaders were the principal speakers. Dr. Richard R. Lyman of the Council of the Twelve was the keynote speaker of the day on Monday. He gave four essentials for life at Its best: health, morality, knowledge, and religion. Life means more than to breathe, to eat, an l to sleep, stated President David O. McKay in the Tuesday session. He continued by quoting from Rousseau, Life is an overflowing river, which should grow in volume as it flows. Each day's experiences should make a man wiser than the day before. The man who has lived longest is not he who has counted the most years, but he who has achieved most, who has experienced the great joy. An interpretation of his conception of the glory to be attained by man in a future life was given by President J. Reuben Clark of the first presidency of the L. D. S. Church in the Wed- Dr. Adam S. Bennion, Asst to the President of the Utah Power and Light Company and former Church commissioner of education. The last address of the week will be given today by Elder Stephen L.
