The UINTAH BASIN RECORD takes special pride in congratulating Utahs youngest newspaper on its entry into the field. Its editor and publisher, Donald II. Steele, was for 2l years operator and advertising manager on the RECORD staff, leaving this post in August to take up his new venture. Success for the fledgling seems assured from the first edition. Not only is the paper well written, well made up and altogether fine looking in appearance, but its pages reflect the hearty support of the businessmen of Kanab and surrounding territory. A well edited and properly arranged newspaper is the first duty of a publisher, but with this accomplished his job is only half done. To support such a paper takes revenue, the chief source of which is advertising. A glance through the pages of the NEWS REVIEW indicates that it is going to have the support necessary to insure its continued success. . Citizens of Kane county undoubtedly will welcome with increasing enthusiasm the new enterprise, for as time goes on they will appreciate the real meaning of the masthead slogan, Published in the Interest of Kane County, etc. And so we say, Congratulations to the News Review and its editor. THE VOTERS PAVE THE WAY Duchesne citizens showed, with little doubt, their need for a better water supply by their vote at the bond election last Friday. It was rather surprising to note the small vote recorded, but it is possible that some of those who might have cast ballots and did not, felt that the issue was in little danger and that their voting would be unnecessary a dangerous attitude, and one which should be quickly remedied if present. Be that as it may, the votes cast were yes 10 to 1 and there now remains the only Washington approval to make available the $29,000 fund for water works improvements. Having done their part to make the funds available, the citizens have still a further obligation. Definite source of the water for the new system has not been fully determined. While a competent engineer and the citycouncilmen are on the job to find such a supply, it still is of interest to the citizens who must use and pay for the water to see to it that the best one-side- d possible source is put into use. It will be our aim to keep in close touch with the progress of the development and investigation of Murray springs and other possible sources of supply, and through our columns keep the citizenry informed. They in turn can, and should keep up with this information and make their voices heard in carrying out the project. Thus can we he assured of proper expenditure of the funds for a good and dependable water supply. A NEW DOCTOR FOR DUCHESNE It is with considerable pleasure that we welcome Duchesne Dr. F. L.

Though little more than a month old, the organization has the largest membership of anv civic club in Duchesne, has already launched itself on several worthwhile enterprises, and has the youth and vigor to carry through. We expect two fine results from this organization. One, the immediate result should be the accomplishment of many fine improvements to the business and social life of Duchesne. The second, and perhaps the most important is the drawing into civic affairs of the membership. .Made up of a membership of young men the Junior Chamber of Commerce presents the opportunity for its members to express and execute their ideas, an opportunity which they have lacked in other clubs where they naturally give way to older and more experienced leaders. The Juniors of today, however, are tomorrows leaders, and through the Jaycees thev find quick and early preparation for this leadership. Their efforts deserve the support and cooperation of all other civic organizations. of At the end of the first week county Duchesne ten registration, rolls students were on the class Total Utah. of at the University was 3715, registration at that time numan increase of 255 over the on the correspondber registered ing date last year. state Registration began at the the when 23, university September freshmen registered after a round of preliminary tests and activities introducing them to college life.

For the past year and a half Duchesne citizens have felt the need of a physician, and while Dr. Murray has yet to prove his mettle, the fact that he comes well recommended, is young, and appears to have the determination and ambition which points to success, indicates that he might well be the answer to the wishes. A good physician means much to a community. Not only is he available, day and night to administer to the relief of its citizens, an availability whch often means the difference between serious illness and only a temporary ailment, but the fact that he can in most cases administer in the community means much to the pocketbooks of the patient and the businessmen of the community as well. The reception and support given Dr. Murray will undoubtedly determine his stay here. Dr. Murray MYTON SCHOOL has expressed his willingness to set up his practice NEWS here.
