Beginning atf10:30 with a patriotic service held in the Kpacious L. D. S. chapel, which was filled to capacity, was a fitting beginning of the days festivitiies. Heralded as fluent speaker, Alma Sonne, cashier of the First National Bank, of Logan, lived up to his advanced reputation. It was more than an address, it was more than an oration, it was a sermon and an oration which thrilled every listener. It rang with the old time fervor with an analysis portraying beautifully ana clearly what it cost to establish a free land and the things necessary to sustain it. No man or woman could help being thrilled and grateful that he was a citizen of this great republic when before him was portrayed, as Mr. Sonne did, what it means to be an American citizen. Those who were fortunate enough to be at the services will long remember them for the spirit in which they were conducted, every number being unusually good. The following is the program as carried out, A. N. Fishburn acting as Master of Ceremonies: prelude selection, by the band; singing, "America" by the congregation; invocation, Rev. A.

Riders and the Palace Laundry team of Salt Lake met. The game was a thriller and was not won by the Rough Riders until after two men were out in the ninth innings, the score being 7 to 6. The relay races were high class, and the some of the speediest men in the state entering the race and the strongest men in the tug of war. Handsome cash prizes were awarded the winners. The kiddies came in for their share when mare than $25.00 was handed out in prizes to them. All in all it was a very successful celebration, not an accident or anything of the kind happened to mar the pleasantness of the day. The celebration ended at the picture and the Moonlight Gardens, where special features for the day were put on in show and dancing. Members of the different committees are to be congratulated for the manner in which the celebration was ( children appearthat the third day ed fit the play grounds, according to supervisor Mildred Stone. Monday this number had grown to more than a hundred and from all indications the end is not yet The organization is gratified at the ready response from the parents in sending their children to the play grounds. It is an interesting sight to see the different groups at play and at the game time are learning valuable lessons in social contact and play etiquette which will form the foundation upon which their future character will be built The play hours are from 1 to 7 each day. Any doubtful parents as to the value of this movement can satisfy themselves by visiting the playgrounds which they are cordially invited to do, not only to see but to play as their is no limit to age. SPEAKER POINTS WAY TO IMPROVE PRICEOFWHEAT . d; tug-of-w- ar put over. Feed More Wheat To Livestock Suggestion Of J. R. Howard During his talk at the meeting held in the club rooms at Tremonton, recently, J. R. Howard told why all farmers should be interested in the marketing of livestock. Leading up to this subject the speaker said that since the rworld war many nations, heretofore not producing wheat, planted hundreds of thousands of acres and as a result there is more wheat in the world than ever before. In the United States there has been an increase in wheat production in the past ten years. In Italy thousands were out of Italy said, "America employment. will not take our labor so we will not their wheat." As a result Italy went in for reclamation projects; redeemed thousands of acres of land; built irrigation systems; drained swamp land and planted wheat and produced four bushels more per acre than was produced in the United States. A similar condition prevailed in France, and that nation started to grow wheat Great Britain, a nation that heretofore did not produce much wheat, last year produced 55,000,000 bushels. Russia is coming back as a wheat producing nation, and also is placing coal on the market in Boston in competition with Pennsylvania coal. Russia is paying a wage scale of 17 cents per day and has started out to dominate the world markets in wheat, coal and other products. European tariffs, said the speaker, are not retalitory tariffs as some people claim. It is feared that Russia will dominate markets unless some action is taken. It will be seen that all these things have contributed to .the low price of (Continued on page five.) grandson Of Barbara Of ficials of U. P.

M. all of the people of Box Elder County are invited to meet together on the large lawn at the Utah State Agricultural College, southwest of the i main building of the college. This is driectly south of the main front entrance. This is on the second day of the Farmers' Encampment The two Farm Bureau units of Box Elder County, and the County Extension Service are doing their best to get a large crowd from Box Elder County to attend the Encampment. The recreational committees of the two Box Elder Farm Bureau units are sponsoring this move to get a large crowd from our county. If you can only spend one day choose the fifteenth, and meet with the group from Box Elder County during the lunch hour. Bring your lunch and eat it on the lawn designated. An interesting program will be planned; so look for some real fun. Remember the day, the hour, the place, and don't miss a treat. Robert H. Stewart, County Agricultural Agent James L. Lockhart, of Provo, who until a fortnight ago was Phyllis Paxton of Salt Lake City the brightest star in the galaxy of Community Players received such anovation as she received on Monday night at the Midland Hotel here, where she was the guests of honor at a dinner given by Miss Phylis Wilson at which there weer fifteen guests present, all of the feminine persuasion, who has been her associates and friends for the five years of her residence in this city where she taught in the grade schools. The dining room was beautifully decorated with draperies and flowers, the color scheme being green and yellow. The dinner was a deightful affair in which Miss Wilson outdid herself as the gracious hostess. The centerpiece of the dining table was a beautifully decorated wedding cake, which was planked by mounds of rice, with which the newly made bride was bountifully sprinkled in the course of the evening. On either side was placed a minature bride and . groom, which completed the centerpiece. Every guest had a present for the bride, all of which were valuable and useful and to hold the spell of good luck each guest also received a present and was required to make a wish upon opening the same. The happy bride has the abundant wishes of this community to go with her through life. The guests assembled were: Maudell O. Seager, Anna Miller, Edith Foxley, Aileen Calderwood, Pearl Peterson, Lela Jensen, Irene Pack, Thelma Harris, Nora Gunderson, and the James Walton, Leroy Bishop, Wilma Anderson, Lois Burkhart and Mary Hansen. Mes-lam- es enough to not attend, missed a real treat The speakers of the evening were W, H. Warner, Poultry Specialist of Petaluma, California, and Willard Garr, fieldman of the Utah Poultry Producers association. Mr. Warner, speaking of the poultry outlook said: "that like any other business, it had its fat and lean years, but for the poultryman who attends to business, keeping abreat of the times, his accounts will show a profit even in years of low prices, but for the haphazard producers, they fare in the poultry like they do in any other: undertaking." The speaker placed the Utah poultrymen in a very high position,; compared with other sections of the country, where he had visited, both as to housing and care of the chickens, and cooperation , among themselves, and with the educational institutions in the state. Mr. Garr commented on the fine tender chickens raised and served in the Tremonton section, also the splendid style of Lions luncheons. His general congenial spirit indicated, that "when a man is well fed, his heart is won." Lion Green ; and Lioness Bishop rendered two splendid musical selections, which brought forth the comment that, in addition to being a first class dentist, a real base ball player, a fast foot racer, Doc is not slow with a violin. Lion Walton repoHed a visit by Union Pacific officials relatives to establishing Bus Service in the Bear River Valey. After considerable discussion the club went on record favorWith the ing this added service. proper closing ceremonies, the meeting adjourned. Publicity Committee y H. Stewart is ena friendly cooperthe hay raisers of the necessity of curing of their alfalfa. In the window of the C. W. & M. Co. can be seen a sample of first class hay. This hay was cut when about ten percent in bloom. The rakes folowed the mower, it was then piled and cured in the cock. In this way the hay is from 70 to 75 per cent leaves, from which the greater amount by far of the value of feed comes. Feeders claim they would rather pay three or fuor dollars a ton more for this hay than that which is left to mature before cutting and is not cured properly. The agent states there is no question but what a premium price can be had for hay properly cut and cured and urges all hay growers to inspect the hay on display in Tremonton and Garland with the view in mind to produce hay of like quality from which a greater return will be had as well as a ready market. County agent R. deavoring through ative way to show Box Elder County proper cutting and Infected Finger Keeps E. J. Barrett Confined While on an early morning journey the 4th of July, Maurice and Irene Pack and Clifton Kerr met with an automobile accident in Logan Canyon. The Pack car was going up grade and had just completed a turn around a bend in the road when a car coming from the opposite direction and travelling at a rather high rate of speed faled to keep, according to reports, his side of the road and crashed head-o- n into the Pack car. The occupants of the Pack car were thrown against the scrool board and were badly cut and bruised, Maurice Pack was knocked unconscious and received a severe cut in the forehead, requiring eight stitches to close the wound and severe bruises about the head and legs. His sister Irene re ceived a prained ankle and was badly bruised about the legs and body while Clifton Kerr received a pair of black eyes and numerous other bruises about the head and body. Both cars were badly damaged. Bishop Charles Gunnell, of Howell, took Miss Pack and Mr. Kerr to their camp, in the canyon, a short distance from where the accident happened. They had heard the crash and rushed to the scene to offer assistance if Mr. Pack was taken to the needed. hospital at Logan where his wounds were dressed. They were later brought to Tremonton when Leon Kerr answered an emergency call picking up the injured canyon. The occupant of the other at Logan and those further up the car was only slightly injured. states that he did not know such a little thing could cause such a big fuss. on tion to that In order, however, to make a profitable operation of these bus lines it would be necessary that a franchise be granted from Brigham City to the Idaho state line via Wellsville, Logan, Hyrum and Richmond. They would not be interested in one or the other without both of them. Favorable reaction to the proposition has been received by these gentlemen in their visii'lnto this territory. The Mayor gave- ft as his opinion that the people of this valley would welcome an opportunity to voice their sentiment in favor of the franchise. The added convenience, especially through the winter months would mean a great deal to people who found it necessary to go north or south, the busses being operated the year around on schedule time. Already the Union Pacific are operation busses from Chicago to Omaha, Saint Louis to Kansas City, Denver to Salt Lake and from Salt Lake to Los Angeles, Yellewstone, Portland and Seattle, the Western Lines connecting with the Eastern lines. ' The local busses would run on a schedule connecting with the lines to points - , named above. Aside from the passenger ' service offered on these bus lines a light express service will be giyen. Railroad tickets can be used on the bus lines, bus line tickets, however, will not be ... good on the railroad. - " s . : , 10.

A Bird, Mendon's second baseman, had a perfect day at the bat getting five hits for five times at the bat. Evans, for the winners hit safely three time out of four chances, two of these were doubles.

It has come to a point where a constant vigil has to be kept on their stocks of merchandise in the business places in Tremonton.

Londv Harris, subbintr back of the plate for Larry Evans, (who was disabled with a bad case of halitosis) performed in great style. Stone, Salt Lake pitcher, stared for his team collecting three out of four times at bat. The entire Salt Lake team played heads up baseball all the time. It was without a doubt the most classy outfit that has been seen on the Tremonton grounds this year.

Hits Runs I The city council met in regular session Monday night with a full quorum present. After the reading and accepting of the financial statement the council plunged into the work at hand. Reports of the various committees were heard, among which was the street and alley, waterworks : and finance. H. T. Woodward, chairman of street and aley committee reported that the work of beautifying the cemetery had been completed as far as outlined for this year, this project being sponsored by the Lions Club. The amount of money required to do the job was approximately $2,000. Of this amount the Lions Club has raised through subscriptions of lot owners approximately $1,700. Mr. Woodward reported that the work had exceeded their fondest expectations, there now being some 78 lots that have been beautified by the planting pf' lawn and the placing of shrubbery. He asked that the city assume the balance now owing on the improvements, which was approximately $250.00 By unanimous consent the council allowed this amount and complimented Mr. Woodward and his aids in the very splendid manner in which this job had been done. Dr. Luke, chairman of the water committee, recommended that a checkup be made of every water user in order to ascertain what percentage of water was wasted by leaky taps, etc.. The council approved his plan and gave him authority to instigate the check-u- p at the tiaie he saw fit. A former decision of previous councils was upheld when the question arose as to the amount to be charaged for extra taps used for outside purposes, of the canal system, the amount being $10.00 for the connection and $6.00 for the extra outside tap. This is allowed only where the user is already paving the regular rate for water.' Councilman Waldron, head of the finance department, after scanning the financial statement and the numerous bills to be allowed, gave it as hia opinion that a new wage schedule for street cleaning and extra help for the city should be made. Hia recommendations met with the hearty approval of the council and the new schedule was drawn up and will take effect immediately. Watermaster T. P. Meister was Instructed to measure the spring water and place the measurements on file wtih the chairman of the water committee at least twice a month, this to last over a period of three months.
