Nothing has been definitely decided upon in regards to what league the Nephl baseball team will enter this season, but in as much as we have been playing with the league, it Is thought advisable to stay with that league. According to our friend, Gil Bailey, there is some talk of organizing a league composed of Springville, Spanish Fork, Payson, Nephi, Dividend, and Eureka, and using strictly home-tow- n players, so as yet it is not known where, or team who will the Nephi how, play with. of-th- Sanpete-Nephi-Sali- Business Men's Ass'n To Monday Adopt By-La- Nephi Hunters Kill Big Lion Southeast of Levan At a meeting of the board of directors of the newly formed busi ness men's association of Nephl, a set of and a constitution was drawn up, which will be pre sented at the regular meeting to be held next Monday evening at 7:30 p. m..

The animal was killed In Deep Canyon, southeast of Levan. The hunters used their dogs to trail the animal and tree him. The Nephi hunters certainly must get a thrill out of hunting lions, as some of the wealthy men of the world spend large sums of money to go to the jungles to get a chance to hunt mountain lions, and the same thrill should be gotten out of hunting close to home. by-la- Frank Jones Returns Chas.

Speed on the highway, speed by rail, speed In the air, speed In factory production, ever speed In' the home, are all factors which increase the number of daily accidents. Much good preventative work Is being done by xhf.mbej;s of" commerce and other oiaaiations with the ultimate objective of stopping all accidents. However, they still continue to the extent of over 90.-0fatalities and millions of minor accidents last year. Although the excellent work along Safety Lines has done much to reduce accidents, it cannot eliminate them entirely. Therefore, our next consideration should be to make the consequence as slight as possible. First Aid Is the answer to this problem. An alarming number of the fatalities listed last year were from minor injuries which were allowed to grow serious through neglect. First Aid would have left many of those people with us today. First Aid Week, the third week in March, has a far higher purpose than to increase the sale of First Aid supplies. It Is an annual attempt to impress more strongly on the public mind the need for that "Ounce of Prevention" and arouse them to a state of preparedness. Most factories are required by law to carry First Aid equipment, but In many of them the First Aid Cabinet needs refilling. If half of the contents are gone from a cabinet, it might serve only for half of the accidents that occur. Superintendents of factories should take First Aid Week as a reminder to refill their cabinets. Automobiles are the cause of more accidents than almost any other source except the Kitchen Stove. and yet, how many automobiles carry First Aid? And In how many states it is requisite that every car carry First Aid supplies? It is not only for the major accidents that First Aid is necessary. The little minor accidents, such as skinning the knuckles while working on the engine, or getting a burn from the exhaust pipe, often result In serious infection, if neglected. A few minutes spent in applying antiseptic and covering the damaged part with bandage, may save hours or even days of pain later on. Then too, don't overlook the op portunity of helping the other fellow. Any motorist may suddenly find himself in a position to be a "Good Samaritan" and the fact that he has a First Aid Kit In his car may be the means of actually saving human lives. If your automobile Is not equipped with a First Aid Kit, see that one is put there today. Any Druggist can supply you and the cost is small considering what is at stake. Home accidents are the most numerous of all. Probably 80 per cent of all minor accidents occur in the home and most of these are In the kitchen. And yet these minor Home Accidents must not be ignored. There are about 25,000 deaths every year from this source. In a large proportion of these cases, death might have been prevented had First Aid been administered at once. And yet in most cases it was impossible to administer First Aid promptly BECAUSE THE PROPER SUPPLIES WERE NOT AT HAND! The Increased use of electricity and labor-savin- g machinery adds even more to the dangers of housework. Where the stove used to be (Continued on Page Eight) , 00 " TO BE CAUTIOUS d.'

Sunday School To Hold A One Day Convention A one day Sunday School Convention for the Juab Stake has been called by the General Sunday School Board, Sunday, March 30. There will be two sessions: a morning session from 10:00 A. M. to 12 noon, to be held in the Juab Stake Seminary; and an afternoon session from 2:00 to 4.00 P.

It Is just one hundred years since the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints was organized, and the theme of the convention is or ganized in commemoration of this event, namely: To Make 1930 the Banner Year of the Priesthood of the Church in Teaching the Restor ed Gospel. Several members of the Sunday School General Board will be in attendance, and will address the members present. Some unique and Interesting musical numbers are being prepared for the meetings.

What First AidWeek HEALTH BOARD Means to the Public URGES PARENTS t HID I. HEBO Representatives from the Forest Reserve met with the board of coun ty commissioners at their regular meeting held last Saturday, in re agreement gard to the between the county and forest de partment, and after due considera tion by the board, it was ordered that the county sign the agreement. The agreement de be a four- cided upon by the commissioners and the forest officials, calls for the building of five miles of standard forest road up behind Mount Nebo. The proposed road will begin-- , at Oekey'B-ranc- hr fcnd-wil- l teen foot standard road. According to information given out by Forest Ranger A. P. Christiansen, there will be some portions of the road graveled, where it is deemed advis able, while in cuts, and places where the materials will hold up properly, it will not be resurfaced. The forest officials are very anxious to commence work on this project as soon as weather condi tions will permit, In order that the local ranger can be through and ready for other work by May 15th. The entire stretch will cost be tween eight and ten thousand dol lars, with fifty per cent coming from the forest service and fifty per cent coming from the county. The above plan looks like a very satisfactory way to build roads within the forest boundary, as each year the forest department pays into Juab county a certain share of the receipts taken in from grazing, and in turn this money is being used for building roads within the forest area.
