A week ago last Saturday night two men, giving their names as Martin and Williams, routed T. H. Pratt of the Pratt Merc. Co. of Hinckley out of bed to secure gasoline gas-oline for their cars, each having a big Studebaker car. The next day Sheriff Lewis was in the store and heard Mr. Pratt remark that he had been called out of bed the night before to supply some stragglers with gasoline and remembered one of the car numbers. The Sheriff asked him to keep his eyes open for them, figuring that they were on a mission for booze over in Nevada, and that they would be back Friday. Mr. Pratt was called on Thursday Thurs-day afternoon of last week to supply sup-ply the same two cars with gasoline gas-oline again and they were piled high with something covered with quilts. He noted the number on one and it was the same as on one of the cars he had supplied with gasoline the Saturday night before. He tried to reach the sheriff by phone but he was in Fillmore on his way 'back to Delta figuring that Friday would be about the time the cars would return. Mr. Pratt then thought of Mr. Shields of Sugarville, captain of one squad of the Home Guards, and the auto's having headed that way, telephoned to him to be on the lookout. Mr. Shields phoned to Fred Bar-ben Bar-ben to keep his weather eye open and just a'bout that time two autos passing Mr. Barben's place stopped near there to repair a puncture. He telephoned Mr. Shields and went out to investigate. The pair was caught with the goods on them and when Mr. Shields arrived, were arested and brought to town. They were turned over to the sherriff who arrived by that time. Their trials were held the last of the week and the two of them were fined $510, which fine was paid the first of the week, and the men took their cars and hiked, minus their booze, and sadder "Budweiser". There were 984 pints of beer and whiskey which at present prices would have brought them nearly $4,000 retail had they succeeded in getting by with it. It is supposed they got it at Ely, Nev., and were taking it to Salt Lake City.

Last week a group of BYU students under the direction of Dr. Durham, spent several days at the Oak Creek camp ground.

Though they average only four feet In height, they are extraordinary extra-ordinary hunters, with amazing strength and stamina. According1 to Ace Williams, noted African explorer, hunter photographer and producer of travel and documentary films, "The Pygmies regard salt as a rare delicacy because it is virtually virtual-ly unobtainable in this particular section of Africa. That is why we pay them in salt; anything from a generous pinch to a small handful, according to the amount of work they do. They can gobble it down by the handful! "In past years, we have paid them in rock salt. But on my most recent safari, as a 'field test', to pay them In fine salt we used Airko moisture-proof shakers we purchased at an outlying out-lying trading post, a jungle ''five-and-dime," "Since the Ituri Forest i3 right on the Equator, the climate there is constantly hot, damp and clammy. The fact that fine salt would actually pour freely at all times from these new shakers was as surprising a miracle to us as it was to the Pygmies." Williams Is leaving shortly for another safari to do a documentary docu-mentary film of other African tribes. . This story and news picture will be released to apes in your i area in about three weeks. Will you have the new Swedish Modern AIRKC Free-Flow Shakers on display thin? LEAMINGTON IT. LEE FINLINSON Find Career in Agriculture, Says Dr. R. H. Walker "Where can a young man or woman find greater opportunity, more of a challenge, more of a possibility pos-sibility for success than in agriculture?" agricul-ture?" asks Dr. R. H. Walker, Dean of the College of Agriculture at Utah State University. Logan, Utah. "Agriculture and the related industries in-dustries and 'businesses offer op portunities in more than 500 dis tinct occupations." About 40 per cent of all jobs in the United States are in or connected con-nected with Agriculture. Of approximately approx-imately 65 million employed Americans, Am-ericans, about 10 million work on farms and ranches, 6 million produce pro-duce for and service farmers, and about 10 million process and distribute dis-tribute farm and ranch products. In addition, about a quarter mil- Creek road makes it impractical to use the area above Shingle Mill at the present time; however it is expected that these areas will be open for use some time during the summer. There is considerable dan ger from rolling rocks as a result of the road construction work a-bove a-bove the upper camp grounds. We would appreciate it very much :l the people would limit their camping camp-ing and picknicing in Chalk Creek to the Shingle Mill and Copleys areas. The road above Shingle Mill is closed to public use. lion scientists directly serve agriculture. agri-culture. Recent surveys show that land grant universities graduate about 8,000 young men and women each year in agricultural sciences, and each year only 8,000 trained persons per-sons to fill 15 000 johs, or about two future jobs for every agricultural agricul-tural college graduate," Dr. Walker added. The educator cited examples of job prospects for agricultural college col-lege graduates. "It may be pointed out that agricultural industries such as farm machinery and equipment equip-ment manufacturers, food processors process-ors fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides herb-icides manufacturers, etc., can use about 3,000 trained men annually." Agriculture business such as banking bank-ing and credit, farm management, marketing, land appraisal, storage education, including schools, col-2,500 col-2,500 annually and agricultural leges and universities, governmental government-al agencies, fram organizations, and the agricultural extension service ser-vice can use at least 3,000 new men annually. As in most industries, college training in agriculture pays off in dollars and cents, Dr. Walker pointed point-ed out. Recent surveys show that a college graduate can expect to earn a'bout $100,000 in his lifetime more than a high school graduate. Figured on the basis of investment and return this would be a cash return about twenty times the investment in-vestment of $4,000 to $6,000 for a college education. The College of Agriculture at Utah State University and other colleges of the university have an impressive record in training top Souvenir Coins From Propeller Of Historic Cruiser "OlyrcpicT To Pay For Conversion As Shrine V Souvenir coins, made from the melted down propeller of the historic his-toric Cruiser OLYMPIA Admiral Dewey's Flagship at the Battle of Manilla Bay, on May 1, 1893 now are available to the public, pub-lic, Francis D. Pastorius, president of the Cruiser Olympia As sociation, Inc. announced today. A coin or coins will be distributed dis-tributed to all persons who contribute con-tribute $1.00 or any multiple thereof, to the Association to help to pay for repairs to the vessel necessary to make her presentable for exhibition as a national shrine. The repairs, estimated to cost $153,000, are underway at the yard of the Keystone Drydock and Ship Repair Company, Philadelphia. After completion of the repairs, re-pairs, the vessel will be towed to a site on the Delaware Pwiver between Market and Chestnut Streets in historic old Philadelphia where she will be landlocked and placed on public exhibition a few blocks from Independence Hall. Part of the vessel will be used to house a Marine Museum. Philadelphia Phil-adelphia is one of the few ports which does not at present have such a museum. "It is fitting that- the propeller propel-ler of this gallant oil ship should provide the rr.ear.s of helping to rescue her from the scrap heap and preserve her for future generations as a symbol of one of our nation's greatest and most meaningful naval victories,'' Pastoriu &;!. "I hope that the puW.c wiil respond to our appeal and - r-tribute r-tribute to the fund to pay r, repairs to the vessel. In jears to come, I am canfiJvi.i the coins will have a historical value, and certainly, for most Americans they will have a sentimental sen-timental and patriotic value." The Olympia has floated, in such poor condition that public visiting was prohibited, in a back channel of the Philadelphia Philadel-phia Naval Base since her last voyage in 1921. On that occasion occa-sion she carried home from France, for burial at Arlington Cemeterj. Virg;nia, the body of America's "Unknown Soldier" of World War I. The Keystone Drydock and Fhip Repair Company has agreed to make the necessary repairs to the Olympia "subject "sub-ject to future reimbursement by the Association." Additional funds will be needed to equip the vessel as a shrine and museum. mu-seum.
