W. GOODELL, Editor and Manager. J. A. OWENS, Advertising Manager THE TRU Til QUICIi Neither t newspaper, nor any of its stockholders or officials has any connection whatever, directly or Indirectly, with any political party, publ io utility, real estate promotion or, other private business except the publication of newspapers devoted . solely to disinterested public service. Heed the Call Thet Red Cross organization, bringers of mercy in times of disaster, has undertaken the relief of the flood-stricken areas in Utah, principally in Davis county and at Bingham. It has been estimated that a fund of $35,000 will be necessary to alleviate the suffering and wan; caused by the flood waters that laid farms waste and demolished many homes. Utah county has been alloted $2,000 of the total amount. It i3 hoped that the quota will be subscribed in record time. A prompt contribution from everybody in proportion to his ability to pay will be more effective in bringing aid than future promises of larger amounts. In the. distribution of the relief funds,' our own county will not be forgotten. Those who suffered damages at Springville, 'Elberta, Orem, and other places as a result of the flood here, will be placed on the same footing as those who were stricken elsewhere in the state. A King's Code Lots of editors and other folks as well have viewed with mild and good-natured criticism the personal code, of King Georg-aof England which has recently been made public and which is said to be framed on the wall of his bed room. The gist of the criticism seenis to be that it is too platitudinous for a sophisticated age. . As you may have forgotten the king's code or may have overlooked it in the- daily news, we reprint it here: 'Teach me to be obedient to the rules of the game. ... "Teach me to distinguish between sentiment and sentimentality, senti-mentality, admiring the one and despising the other. "Teach me neither to proffer nor to receive cheap praise. "If I am called upon to suffer, let me be like a well-bred beast that goes away to suffer in silence.' "Teach me to win; if I may not, teach me to be a good loser. . " Teach'me neither to cryfor the moon nor to cry over gpilled milk." : : ' ... ' Perhaps the critics are right; perhaps this code does sound somewhat flat and school-boyish; perhaps it is not in keeping with a sophisticated age. But you can't deny that if you attempted to follow the king's code closely it would be a difficult feat and, moreover, if you succeeded in following the code, it would make a better bet-ter men of you. - - Making Highways Safer We rather approve of that new policy just adopted by the state officials in-New Jersey. Providing the owner's consent can be obtained, all autos declared unsafe or unfit for operation on public highways are destroyed by fire. Abandoned motor cars unfit for operation Will be disposed of in the same manner. Such measures may. seem a little drastic, but the purpose pur-pose is good and the effect probably .will be the same. Our annual traffic death toll is far too high, and one reason for this is the number of ancient wrecks cruising our highways under the giiise of motor cars. "Bad brakes form their chief danger to life and Ji'mb and itxis safe to say that most of these bid pieces of junk are so afflicted. V An unsafe car on the highway is not only a menace to its occupants, but a menace to all other traffic and pedesi trians as well. An auto that cannot be controlled quickly and efficiently in congested traffic is just as apt, perhaps more so, to damage other cars as it is to damage itself. - Howdy, folks! These new bantam ban-tam cars that are becoming popular popu-lar have one advantage. . You can park them in the dog house at night.
