Show THE TIMES, VOL. 14, NO. 7. NEPHL JUAB COUNTY, UTAH, FIU DAV, APRIL 20th, 1923 THE NEWS, VOU 6, NO. 46 Learn Trade Where Christ Did ROAD TO ICE CAVE IS IMPORTANT BASE BALL PLANNED BY CLUBS Forest Service Will Pay Equal Amount To Fund Raised By Subscription Road Will Be Scenic Attraction Many Camp Site Areas Will Be Available. The Commercial Club and Klwanis Club are working on a movement for the building of a road past the ranger station behind Mt. Nebo. Theidea of is to make it- - possible for thygroad -risiting this section to take a irip to the Ice Cave in addition to the other scenic attractions of Mt. Nebo. The County agreed to donate $100 in labor, and the City of Nephi the same amount. The Forest Service have signified their willingness to go fifty-fift- y on the proposition in order to get the road built. Committees from the clubs are now circulating a petition among the citizens in order to raise enough money and also labor, to put the road from the forks of the canyon to the ranger station in the best possible condition for travel, and in view of the fact that a large number of the people of this city use this road a great deal during the summer a very generous response is expected to the appeal of the committee who have the matter in hand, and who will probably call upon many of the citizens in the course of a few days. It should be kept in mind by all who donate labor or money, that the government will match dollar for dollar on all amounts subscribed. With an auto road built past the pi.e ranger station right into the heart of Mt. Nebo, there would be available for the traveling tourist, one of the most beautiful scenic drives that can be found anywhere, and would be an added attraction for the tourist to stop over a day while journeying to the beauty spots in the Southern part of the state. Another feature which this road would bring, ia that of a new area of choice camping grounds which are at present unable to be used on account of the present road conditions. The Forest Service we are infomed are ready to set aside Andrew's Canyon as a camping gound whenever the people of this city desire it. With a good highway past the ranger station this offer could be accepted. Every' body boost for the road.

Creely, of the United States Veterinary department, An important meeting of Interest to base ball fans has been called for tonight, Friday, April 20th, at the Commercial Club rooms at 8 p. m. for the purpose of considering the offer of the Central Utah League, for the entrance of this city in that organization this season. The vacancy is made possible on account of Spanish Fork withdrawing from the ' league. According to the letter received by Captain I. M. Petty, there will be a meeting held in Provo next Monday evening and the team from this city is requested to have a representative there if we wish to join. In view of this fact, it will be necessary for quick action to be taken if this city wishes to become a member of the league. Never in the history of this city wag there such a demonstration of real community service as that dis played Monday, when over 400 citizens went to the Vine Bluff Cemetery and donated a days labor in the cleaning ot that cemetery. At 8 a. m. it was a scene of busy activity at the cemetery, with men and teams, carpenters and cement men and boys by the score, including also a number of young girls who assisted in carrying brush to the large bonfires that were made. Everybody was anxious to work and ia a short space of time the old fence was torn down and scores ot men were at work erecting a new one. The old entrance was abandoned and further north a new entrance was made, with four large cement pillars built, on which the gates will be placed. From this gate a new graded road was built east through the center, to the street running north and south. While this work was in progress a large force were engaged In clearing away all brush and rubbish, and by night a real transformation had taken place in the appearance of the cemetery, and it is now in better shape than it has ever been. Stake Supt. T. II. Burton ot the M. I. A. directed the work, as the clean was originally up and improvement launched by this organization aa the monthly activity for April. Mr. Burton wag ably assisted by Mayor Wina and the City Council, also tha Presidency, of the Stake, Bishops of the Wards, PrcMidents of the Commercial and Klwanis Clubs, and other organi, zations of the city. The cost of the improvement counting labor and material is estimated at from twelve to fifteen hundred dollars. Tha City purchased all the material for tha fence, also the cement and lumber required, while tha en t Ira labor cost was donated. A splendid spirit was manifested throughout the work, and It was a flna demonstration of what a united citizenship can arroinpliHh along th line of community service. |
