The presiding officers of the L. D.

The following instructions have also been given concerning the priesthood organizations: Priesthood Priest-hood leadership meetings. These will be held as now carried on, one meeting each month. They should be attended by the stake presidency, high council, ward bishoprics, mel-chizedek mel-chizedek quorum presidencies, officers, offi-cers, officers of stake priesthood committees, the auxiliary presidencies presiden-cies and . superintendencles. The times for these meetings will be fixed' by the stake presidencies. Stake priesthood meetings: These will be held once every three months as a part of the regular Quarterly Conference proceedings. Priesthood Conventions: These will be made a part of Quarterly Conference proceedings pro-ceedings at such conferences as shall be hereafter designated. Priesthood Priest-hood Quorum Meetings: These should continue to be held as now arranged. The authorities urge all the priesthood, officers and members, to observe both the letter and spirit of these instructions, thus bringing unity among the various organizations, organiza-tions, and harmony in the whole church. They further urge the body of the priesthood, and ward and stake officers concerned, so to conduct the activities under these instructions as to reduce to the lowest possible minimum every expense incident to the carrying on of this program and especially to have in mind the reduction of expenditure connected with the operation, of automobiles. Lehi Must Raise New Red Cross Fund Annual Party Set By Lehi First Ward The officers of the local chapter of the American Red Cross have received word that because of the present war condition it is necessary neces-sary that Lehi raise $225 more for the Red Cross. Larger contributions than ever before are needed by the Red Cross this year because the work of that organization increases proportionately pro-portionately with the war, and never before in the history of the world have so many nations been involved in armed belligerence. Those in charge of the war relief re-lief drive for $700 are happy to announce an-nounce that Lehi went Over the Top. The. workers are to be congratulated con-gratulated on an outstandingly good Job. Among the contributions was $11.50 by the Lions club. The fine response received on the past drive shows that the people of the community are conscious of the deeper meaning attached to Red Cross work this year. Those in charge hope that the people will cooperate, be generous, and if some have not contributed that they respond and help raise this money so that this drive may be completed as soon as possible.

While many American citizens are learning new skills as members of Home Defense Units, isoy bcouts are "casning in" on 31 years of Emergency Service experience. ex-perience.

The Boy Scouts have always re sponded generously when called in to action in the service of their communities and their fellow citi zens. And so the nation is confi dent that the Boy Scouts stand ready to contribute to the national welfare in these critical hours.

The following poem was written to Mrs. Kirkham by Mrs. May Hansen: 1 TO SISTER MARY KIRKHAM I am thinking today of a woman, Of a woman good and true. Who spent all her life serving others. And making them happy, too, From a tiny child In Old England When she worked hard for her keep. To a grandmother dear to kins folk, She was ever gentle and meek. On the smooth paved highways of luxury She never once set her feet. But on byways brier grown and rocky Up Life's Hill, undaunted, she'd keep. She was never morose or bitter, But brave and happy alway, Scattering goodness and glad ness While eatherirur flowers all the way. Flowers which she passed on to others In hours of trouble and need. Working and loving and giving, With ever someone to feed. To the top of Life's Hill she as cended. And then so gently went down Gladly leaning on those who loved her, Who softened her life as downe. Into the mist she has vanished, And our eyes can see her no more, But Mary, dear sweet little Mary, t not far away, we are sure. She will ever be near to her loved ones To guard them and help them in strife. in the memory of her sweet eoodness Will challenge them on through out life.
