Show Buy Locally Buy Locally Nephi, The Times, Volume 27 No. 4o SEMINARY SELLS The Livestock Students of the Juab Stake Seminary are sponsoring the religious picture show, "Green Pastures' at the Venice Theatre next Wednesday and Thursday evenings, for the purpose of raising funds to send each of the thirteen missionaries of Juab stake a substantial check as a Christmas present. The show, "Green Pastures" has been rated by all critics as one of "th" greatest productions of the year. It Is not only full of real comedy and beautiful music, but portrays the conception of heaven, ' and negro's the portrayal of Biblical Incidents. For patrons to go to the show, expecting to see a Latter, day Saint portrayal of the religious incidents, they will be greatly disappointed, but for them to go with the desire to see what other groups believe, it will be a real inspiration. The story has been one of the greatest stage productions of all time, and those who have seen the show claim It to be the finest they have ever witnessed. Tickets for the show are being sold by students of the seminary and Seminary alumni association at reg ular prices, 10 and 25 cents, and will be good for either night. The entertainment is not only high class for the money expended. but the money taken in as the senv irary's portion Is to : go towards helping the missionaries of the stake In the performance of their splendid work. It is a worthy cause and it Is hope that everyone will purchase tickets and see a good snow. Valuable prizes are belne given the stuents to stimulate ttiem in their ticket sale by J. N. C. Pexton, of the Pexton candy company, and Mr. Steele of the Venk Theatre. The tickets will go on sale ' on Fri' day of this week. Remember the time, next Wednesday and Thursday evenings, Nov. ember 18 and 19; two shows will be given each night commencing at 7:30; the prices are 10 and 25 cents; there will be no matinee performance; the proceeds are for the missionaries; "Green Pastures" Is a sljow that you will never forget. Utah's Scenery Valuable Asset At the conclusion of a two-da- y meet held in Portland, Oregon, Salt Lake City, was selected as the 1937 convention city by the Western Conference of Auto Clubs, according to Lyle D. Sarvts, Secretary Manager of the Utah Motorist Association, local affiliate of the American Automobile Association. The Conference is composed of A. A. A. motor clubs from the 11 western states and the meeting scheduled for October 14 and 15th, 1937, will be for the purpose of working out a program covering motor legislation, taxation, the promotion of touring travel and highway safety. According to Mr. Sarvis, Utah Is just awakening to the possibilities of selling her scenic attractions to the touring public through the cooperative efforts of various or the ganized groups throughout state. "Hundreds of side trips off main traveled highways Including Fish The national LOS ANGELES election Is over, but the election is never over on the great central livestock market of the country. Every day tie buyers cast their votes In the form of bids for the offerings of the livestock producers. The casting of these votes, bj buyers of course reflectsof their the Judgment of the quality livestock offered for sale. This is true in the Show ring, where breeder and feeders exhibit the results of their work in producing better livestosk when the Judges cast their vote in picking the champions. I mention the Show ring as this is stock show time and there is something about the fairs and stock shows and the harvest season that is a bit different than isanya other part of the year. It spendid work that has been done in bulldln? ud the large livestock shows throughout the country but we should harken back to the oeg Their biginnlng was an Inning. outgrowth of the County fairs. These fairs did not have elaborate equipment or high prizes but they had an intense pride In their compet ition In showing their accomplish ments of breeding and feeding. I believe that this fine spirit has fil tered down into our livestock showsand it certainly Is one of the tanVisible .elements In our show organ izations. The livestock shows are of course non-profeducational Institutions conducted for the encouragement of better livestock. There is the show window where the breeder and the feeder may 'display to the public and to his brother animal husbandmen his accomplishments in better breeding and finishing. One of the gratifying results of the development of our livestock shows has been the Interest that city folk take in the stock shows. They turn out as enthusiastically to see a lot of champions at the Stock Show as they would to see a parade of the "Stars" at a motion picture preview which of course proves that after, all of us are no far from the grass roots. This angle has Importance beyond the service because there Is no doubt that the bringing of the city people to the stock show and showing them what the breeders and feeders are doing is bound to encourage meat consumption and anything that does that helps the livestock industry as a whole. The bulwark of agriculture and animal husbandry Is the younger generation and the encouragement of Junior activities by our livestock shows has been a major portion of their work. We who have watched the shows have seen the Fut-u- r exhibitors farmers and H come in as juniors and before many years we see them out on in the livestock field & exhibition in the senior classes. The fact of the matter Is that the Junior exhibitors in late years have been giving the general exhibitors a pretty good run for their money. If the livestock shows did nothing but build up this spirit in the Junior element they would have served a very good purpose. The 11th Annual Great Western Livestock show will be held at the Los Angeles Union Stock Yards on December 14 to 19, and at that time there will be thousands of Junior club members in attendance in addition of course to people from all of the western states who are Interested in livestock. it, 4-- New Fords On Display Saturday Puffer's Lake, Natural BridJackson Motor Company, losoutheastern Utah, Dinosaur calThe Ford dealers, will have on disNational Monument , Bear Lake, the Kolob Canyons, Rainbow National play Saturday, November 14, new ford 8 for the year 1937.
