IIYitD.Il' - DRINK AND MAKE MERR~E! SELAH The trouble with a lot of people is that they want to live without working a,nd another lot Of people either want to rule or ruin. Mother Nature, like every seemly mother, has foreseen and adequately provided for the various wants of her earth-children. For her human children in particular spe appears to have anticipated a constantly growing and ultimately stupendous requirement for moo,nshine, which requirement she has provided for by making available almost inexhaustible sources of supply in a number of different commupities, each appropriate filr one of the several stages of humanity's downfall toward depths of man made sin. The Journal reporter, wandering up and dow,n the beautiful streets of Bingham Canyon, those remarkable roads made possible by the splendid cooperation of the county officials. who are always looking to the welfare of their constituents, inhaling that ultra pure mountain air so delicately per fumed with the rare, secretive and dai,nty odeurs of moonshine, beer and wine, was inspired to poetry. and thot of Spencer's utterance: "·M eseemed I smelt a garden of sweet flowers, That dainty odors from them threw around." Walking around the/delightful, exhilarating community it was a pleasure to drop in the ever welcotping open doors for a glass of cool beer. or a nip of inspiring "snake bite" or a taste of wine with "Omar" and '!Thou." A ' ritable paradise, an oasis in the tl" ·prt of human law and man made th:ut. Primitive man employed a primitive form of energy, such as the enforced labor of his fellilw man, and l:lter, the strength of the beasts of the fields. and, still later, power of the winds a,nd the work of falling water. Thruout countless ages these sufficed for man's need, and only within the last few years has he at length learned to convert to his owil use, that remartable condensed e.nergy, that product of the law of necessity, that divine, unnatural yet desirable product of a vegetable and fruit 1ife which we have at last learned to designate "moonshine." Once having recognized J¥onshipe as a soUI'Ce of power, man first seized the op)Sortunity to make it for himself, but being endowed with a generous soul he has branched out and il' making it for others less fortunate in the mysteries thereof. Mother Nature, in her characteristic lavish fashio.n, equipped man with an abundance of liquors1 and accordingly he was able, until the 18th amendment, to meet his requirements for years to come. But the only a,pparent ftaw in Mother Nature's plan was her failure to hide securely enuf and to disii,'Uise suffteie,ntly her "reformers." They have invaded the land they have paased that 18th amendment, they have pressed upon the unwilling human soul a law, yes a lawbut alas .a law in name only. Many and devious are the ways to nullify that law. The way is to elect officers who ca,n not read the law; officen who cannot understand that law; officers who are unable to enforce that law; officers who do not want to enforce the law; or officers who do understand, who are able to enforce, who want to enforce but for some u,nknown reason do not enforee that law. But how pleasant it is to have such laws, how pleasant and desirable it is to have so many ways and means to evade them. Laws were made to be broken, says the savant and according to conditions in Salt Lake Co~ty· the truth ilf the statement is borne out Did we hear someone say that money was power, that is if properly used? No, it cannot be. An elderly gentlemen, making a "Svag dricka" is taken to court. No money i,nvolved, he did not sell the feeble drink, his on ly crime was making himself a dr;nk, and creating an odeur. In that haven of rest and comfort, that abode of the mysterious spirits of alcoholic ho,•erages where a tongue moistener costs two bits, fresh from the ice, served i.n a tiny. clean, polished class, to the tune of the foot tapping on the rail, no one is hailed into court. It is a shame to take any one into court who is tryialg to alleviate the human sufferings, trying to help ma.n make this !if~ on eart)l more desirable and the officers of Bingham Canvon and their co-workers, the county sheriffs' representatives allould certainly be complimented for their inaotron, why should they work to incarcerate the poor ( ? ) "Good Samarita,ns" who are drawinJr from the well of moonshine to ftonrl the tired and worn human carcass with Ita life giviM:, soul inspiring, and joy bringing fluid. Alas, who are we to criticize 11och beautiful endeavors on the part of the ones who devote their life to such a aerviee. or to criticize the kind, ge,ntle and efficient denizens of the law who let th,.m eo their way in peace.

Mr. Cutler is now a Lieutenant in the U. S. Navy and is specializing i,n torpedo Wot"k. Arthur proved too much for Midvale Wednesday at Garfield and brought in ten perfectly good lallies as against Midvale's zero. The Arthur pitcher, Wally Robi,nson, was going good, setting his opponents down with two singles in the nine innings, struck out ten batsmen and did not allow a walk to wi,n by a 10 to 0 score. But four men saw first base two by hits and two on errors. ,W~ly aided his cause by driving out three hits in four times up, one being a . double, his first hit counting heavily in the scoring of the first inning. While Robins was holdi,ng the Midvale batters in his grip IUs mates pounded out ten tallies off Murphy in the first two inningst.:ight coming in the opening frame. .Murphy was wild and ineffective, giving way to Larso;n in the second inning with two men down. Larson pitched good ball, setting Arthur down with six hits and not allowi.n g them a run. McGeehan and Robbins were the bat ting stars of the day with McGeehan sending out a homer and single in three times at bat drawinK a walk and being hit by a pitched ball. Fellows made a good showing i,n the outfield for Midvale covering his ter· ritory well and making one spectacular catch of a hard-hit ball. Billy Steadman at second had seven putouts without an error, while B. Smith handled four in the outfield. McGeehan played his usual steady game at second, being in o,n five playa handling them all to perfection. Wednesday's win keeps Arthur tied for first place with Copper.
