Both orations ora-tions were of a high order and gave evidence of a great deal of study. They have been In the process of preparation for several weeks, Mia Allred, the last to survive, is a member of the public speaking speak-ing class. She will represent the Lehi High School in a district on-test on-test to be held at the Lincoln High In the near future. The full text of Miss Allred's oration follows: THE CONSTITUTION: A GUARANTEE OF FREEDOM Jesus spoke of a light that shine-th shine-th In a dark place and the darkness comprehendeth it not This Is the light that brightens immortality. Not everyone can know it os the Man of Nazarath understood it. There is a light, however, . that gleam though It may in the darkness, dark-ness, cannot go ur-noticed. It is the we all know, under tremendous dif flculties. But the efforts that made It possible were perhaps - no more courageous, no more valorous, than thousands of other attempts at in dependence, mieny was still a dream. It was not. yet s reality. There were not many things left to try that had not been, tried. But one, the nappy recourse of the fathers of our temporal" salvation, was a writtert document. defining and limiting the powers 'of the governors and detailing the privi lege of the groverned. ' Such was our Constitution an experiment, a last frantic i-ttvr, "a brand caught out of the burning." .,. . The success of this noble experi ment all the world has witnessed. Its universal appeal is shown in the copies of It that have been made. It is a universal guarantee of freedom. Under it I know that If some one does me wrong I may receive Justice Jus-tice from the law. Also, if I do wrong I deserve and should expect punishment. Furthermore, I am given freedom by denial, for if I am denied' evils and wrong doings r am set free from punishment. I fel that the Contsitutlon guarantees my individual liberty. I feel assured of the inalienable rights of freedom of the press, freedom of religion, and freedom of speech.

The quest for It has been the the-ne song tf the human race, ' But as we view the world . in retrospect we must marvel at its appalling cast. It has taken more lives than greed. It has opened more fountains of blood than hatred. Its story Is told In Inspired uprisings, in explosion defenses, In the working out of heart-rending crises. And to what purpose? Six thousand thou-sand years of theee eruptions did not give the world the freedom it desired. de-sired. Israel disappeared; the Jews suffered a fate still less attractive; Greece left nothing but history; Home Is a mountain of ruins. What did the quest for Liberty contribute to the advancement of the world! It has had a metrorlc carew, and seemed to be doomed to the fate of a meteor.

RESOURCEFULNESS OF LEHI1 r i The resources of Lehi are astonishing. This does not mean ucn things as manufactories, plants and Industries. Mirny a place this size car. boost more In this respect It does apply, however, to the social assets such as co-operation, foresight, etc. . The first thing that the stranger notices upon coming here Is the Memorial Building. There are not many such structures in our state. It Is a monument to the integrity of the city. The operettas produced by the Junior high school recently gave other evidence of this quality. Eighteen Hawaiian grass skirts were found for the first It may be doubted that any other community of Its size in the country could do as welL It is a compliment to the town that only a need is required to produce resources In abundance, . 0 ' THE HARVESTER The eternal reaping goes on! Regardless of time, season or place, jnen answer when the Great Call comes. Lehi's contribution to this exodus of Immortality for the first two months of 1931 has been remarkable for Its number and , quaiuy. Claudius, the king of Hamlet, says that misfortunes "Never come In single spies but In battalions." Verily, this Is a battalion! The following adults have passed away within the past two ana a ,, half months; Mrs. William' Prlc, : Mayor . Sydney uucnnsi. Christian Hanson, Israel Thomas Thurman, Matilda S. Higgs. James Gray, Leah Hill, Mary E. Fowler, Joseph Hammer and Merril R.; Banks. Stalwarts every one! .Much we have is aue to meir ein. efforts, the work of their brains, hands and hearts. We honor them for their courage. No monument Is too rich to be ascribed to them. The foregoing list does not Include members of Lehi families who have died aa residents elsewhere. These are: Marie t otneringnam Graham, Samuel Henry Jones, John Thomas, Eugene Bushman ana Nora Smith Storrs. Though the memory of these Is still green the consolation of their equests Is gseat. It behooves us who remain to pay respect in our living to their integrity and to keep our affairs in order against the time of our own removal. . n iant Electric Power Plant To be Erected on Geneva Site Construction Likely To Commence ' This Summer' U The first definite, authentic lnfor- the Utah Power and Light company I In urging the bill said his firm had been contemplating constructing the. project for, some time and that In all probability construction of the matlon corcernlng the erection of 'firHt nntt wnnirt h unHoi-taUon $12,000,000 steam turbine power j within thre,' years. .
