They claim tv have sought consultations with the c.ounty and State officials on the ' question of paving the east stue anu contmue the double road from Murray to 64th South. Cla~m!in·g that they were unable to get a hearing, they exercised what .they claim is their right, and diverted all north •bound travel on the dirt road, which is full of hoies, dust) and practically unfit for tra V'Cl. Mo11uay evening at 6 o'clock, afte1 a storm of protests to State and County ofiicials a meeting was hel<l in Murray and a program was decided on which settled the matter 101 ,. tile present. 1t appears that all agreed to begin worK on the road ant• slag will be laid, followed by oil, anu prob.ably next yewr a colliCrete top wilt be laid. At least the road w1ll be placed in condition for travel as soon as poss1 ble. It is contended that Murray Cit~· could have taken steps not so dra::;tic in this matter. Of cow·se, Munay has had considerable paving uone at ~tate and County. expense Wlthin Mur.ray City limits but ,their contentwn 01 safety was well founded, as borne out by the ever increasing- number of acculents. Anyhow, they got results and that was the primary object to the move. • MIDVALE CITY, UTAH, THUHSDAY, JULY 16, 1925.

ASLOCALBOOST~ LENNBERG-C RANE Judging from the list of applicants ! seeking admission into the matrimon1ial ranks, the heat of July breaking all records for the past fifty years, has no terrors. Miss Mabel Lennberg, the charming and efficient bookk~per at the Midvale State Bank was married Thursday to Mr. John Crane, of Heniman. Mr. Crane is employed by his father, who has extensive holdings in Utah and Wyo.rming and is engaged in the sheep and cattle business. Mr. and Mrs. Crane departed immediately for Yellowstone and on their return it is probable that Mr. Crane will resume hts work in Wyoming until fall and Mrs. Crane will work at the Barnk for a short time. •• 0.
