Money raised from the ticket sales annually goes to the firemen fire-men project to bring Santa to the elementary schools of American Amer-ican Fork with a treat for each youngster.

The case in hand is the burning of the "Trash Trolley" near the mouth of American Fork Canyon. The Trash Trolley is placed in the canyon for the convenience of the recreationists visiting the National Forest and furnishes them a place to dispose of their trash as they leave the canyon. In other years, this service has not been provided after September, Sep-tember, It is very difficult for Forest Officers to understand why some people would rather destroy a convenience facility than use it and leave it for others, be it a table, a toilet or a garbage can. it is hoped that in the future everyone will cooperate cooper-ate by using National Forest facilities as they are intended. The Trolley is intended for forest for-est recreation use only, and the Forest Service encourages users to protect it front the damuge caused by fire or other thoughtless acts. Men will never establish any equality with which they rnn be contented.
