Since its establish ment. like all new ventures, it has had its hoDeful days, its knockers and its boosters. However, through these nine uncertain years it as steadily grown and advanced; it has demon btrated to those by whom it was es tablished that it is not only a very de hirabln institution to the people of Southern Utah, but also a very nec fcEsary one to them. In spite of the summer's persistent rumors about its ab'OliBhment or curtailment, it now boasts the largest and most seriousminded student body in its nistory In refutation of the statement that it is Cedar City's or Iron County's school be it said that in the B. A. C's enrollment are representatives from nearly every community within Southern Utah. Another encourag ing indication for its continued growth and development is the Increased enrollment of Btudents In the college The fact taat the B. A. department. C. has certain advantages not obtain able in the large institutions for first and second year college students is now beine recognized by many of the young men and women of Southern Utah and attracting them to this school for special training. This year the Branch Agricultural College is making special prpvision ine for its winter course students. coursei are being selected on the basis of practicality, and will be adapted to the needs of those enrolled. All the departments of the school will have subjects' from which to elect.

He is also secretary of the Agricultural Club, secretary of the Bot- uuy Club, a special writer for Stu dent Life and a member of the Omega Tau fraternity. His brother (Ralph) also gave a talk to the club, on Haw aii's contributions to world music. Ralph is a member of the Cosmopolitan Club, the Agricultural Club and the Omega Tau Fraternity, and has an athletic hobby, swimming, which will probably bring him a letter in college this year. The boys are enjoying themselves socially at college and at the same time are making good grades In their courses. They will spend their Christ mas holidays at home but expect to be back at the U. A. C. for winter and f.pring quarters. Plans for the paving of Main Street in this city are now being taken according to an announcement made this week by Mayor T. C. Winn. The work of removing the poles from the center of the street will also be commenced in the near future A meeting will be held in a few days to which the business men of the city will be asked to attend. The question that will be decided upon at this meeting will be, the extent of the paving in the business section, and also the type of paving that will be favored. With the cement paving right up to the Northern limits of the city It seems that the time for action on the part of the citizens here has arrived, and with some help from the County and Government the project will almost certain to be put over.

MARRIED L MANTI TEMPLK WEDNESDAY LIVE LEVAN LOCALS OF THE WEEK Levan is still on toe map and we want our Northern neighbors to know it. Work on the state highway from Levan is being improved greatly, and hundreds of loads of gravel are being hauled daily and spread on the road. It is hoped that the work can be completed before the winter set in. The Levan Plaster Mill which has ben remodeled, is now nearly ready to start operations in the manufacture of plaster. The regular pay day has caused business to brighten up ' materially. The B. P. I. M. Club met at the Miss Marie Bosh, Tuesday evening.
