Show Home Talent Chautauqua, Thursday and Friday, June 18th and 19th MA1 RIVER ALLEY LEAPMR. nephi mm Home Chautauqua To be Held June 18-1- CLOSES LONG AND USEFUL CAREER Prominent- as Farmer And Business Man; - Funeral Sunday Nephi Nessen, prominent Tremon- iron resident died suddenly at his home first west street,1 Wednesday r .n following an illness of less . than one day. ' Although he had been ailing for several years his condition was not considered alarming, and up to the acute heart attack and complications which took his life he was feeling fairly well and was about the streets in his customary manner. The deceased was born in Logan, August 28th, 1864 where he lived until 1910 when he and his family moved to Howell. He was an active Latter Day .Saint and held positions of trust and responsibility. He was one of the men who helped organize the Howell Ward and was a member of the bishopric there from its orgasi-zatio- n until he .moved to Tremonton in 1921. After coming to Tremonton he purchased - somv valuable" .property ; on main :street and .on first 'west street and has always been a citizen of the ' highest type. While his health would not always permit an active physical participation in civil and religious activities he yfnw nevertheless been one of the sub-- , stantial boosters and helpers for ev- every worthy cause. In the death of Nephi Nessen Tremonton loses one of her hcspected and useful citizens. EesHen his wife he is survived by the following children: Alvin N., of Centerville; Edgar L., James E., and Mrs. J. H. Fackerl, Howell; Mrs. E. H. Bair, National City, California; Geo. of Salt Lake; Zelda, Gordon, Pearl and Norma, of Tremonton. One brother, Thomas Nesson, of Prestn, Idaho, and two sisters, Mrs. C. H. Smith, of Centerville and Mrs. George Chapman of Preston, Idaho. Funeral services will be in the Tremonton Ward Chapel Sunday, June v : In this issue will be found a complete program of the two days of Home Talent Chautauqua to be held in Tremonton, Thursday and Friday, June 18th and 19th in the L. D. S. Hall. This being sponsored by the W. C. T. U. for the purpose of paying for full time superyised play. In this project, however, the city is also cooperating. This cooperation was given . after the completion of last season's work. The benefits derived therefrom and recommendations of parents were the factors in the councils decision to appropriate money for this project. For this reason,' as well as the pleasure and entertainment that will be had by those who attend the chautauqua, it should receive full and complete sup port from every citizen. Those who are working hard, spending time and money in putting the same over have very few children to enjoy its benefits. It is truly from a public spirited standpoint and child welfare that it is being done. This year, as in the past years, much of the best talent will be as-- ; . communities and promises to be a big success. The public is invited to read the advertisements of the merchants who are helping to make this possible and also the program and decide to attend ; Winifred Holmgren Marries Ogden Banker Winifred, beautiful and accomplishdaughter of Mr. and Mrs. David Holmgren, prominent townspeople, was married to Waldo T.

A Proclamation 9 . 14th Interment will be at BY THE GOVERNOR OF THE STATE OF UTAH On July 24, 1847, the original band of Utah Pioneers emerged from Emigration Canyon and beheld the valley of the Great Salt Lake. For many trying weeks they had been wending their tortuous way across plains, over rivers and through mountain passes, ever pushing onward toward' the "Promised Land" which they hoped to find in the West. On that July morning as their stalwart leader gazed over the valley toward the great inland sea shimmering in the distance and declared "This is the place", they realized that their weary journey was over; that here was the spot for which, they had been seeking, where and lay the foundation of they were to build thefhomes v ? '.v a great stated; :.':.JJ:$ ? ; Since that time it has. become the custome here to observe July 24th each, year with fitting services and cere emonies: imd 'the legislature has that date as a legal holiday in TItah,J. It is customary also for many na tive Utahns who have moved eisewnere to return tor mat day. This year the Salt Lake Chamber of Commerce La sponsoring a "Covered Wagon jDays" celebration on July 24, 25 an4 26; special efforts are being put forth to induce residents, t'o return home for the. week of July 19 to 26, and various' meetings are being arranged for that occasion. It is entirely' fitting and proper that this should be done, that the deeds pf the sturdy men and women who subdued the yal4ec may he impressed more strongly upon us, and that wVmay pay to their memory the tributes of love, admiration and'respect which are so justly theirs. Therefore, I, George H, Dern, Governor of the State of Utah, by the Authority in me vested, do hereby declare and set" aside the week of July 19 to 26, 1931, as "HOME COMING WEEK" and I request all Utahns to lend their loyal support in making that week an outstanding success. I also urjre all former Utahns now living elsewhere to return home during that period if it is possible for them to do so, and to invite their friends andneigbbors to journey to our state, enjoy our hospitality, view our marvelous scenic wonders, and acquaint themselves further with our natural resources.

District Agricultural Inspector. a military school for the summer. oe Grasshoppers Andrew Jensen, assistant church historian, spent Sunday and part of Monday in the Bear River Stake checking up with stake and ward authorities on points of history that pertain to the stake and wards. in connection with the settlements in which L. D. S. wards are and other important civic happenings are included in the records. Two years ago Mr." Jensen was in the stake on a similar mission gathering data. This time the work done was more or less a confirmation of the work accomplished on the former trip. The assistant historian has twice circumnavigated the world and filled nine missions for the church and is perhaps as well posted as any man in the church with relation to the growth and organization of it as weljl as civil history of the world and incidents lead dig up to the foundation of, mor monism. Tho advanced in years, his mind es extremely alert and the amount of information that he can readily give from memory on almost any point of history is truly remarkable. In the Sunday afternoon services of the Tremonton Ward, which were attended by Elder Jensen, the saints were treated to a short discourse oh the reminiscences of. early church history and the places incident in the foundation of the church, which he had very recently visited. While in. Tremonton the historian was told of some valuable records dating back to 1864 that, were in the possession of W. E. 'Getz. ;In company with the editor Mr. Jensen called upon Mr. Getz and viewed the records, which were turned to him for any information that might be valuable as historical data. He was greatly appreciative of the offer of the townsman to take into his possession the records and invited Mr. Getz to visit him in his office in the church building when in Salt Lake where all such data b assembled. sen, of Elwood, was married to Orville Hunsaker, son of Mr. and Mrs. Elija Hunsaker, of Honeyville, Wednesday, June 10th, at the Logan Temple. ? . .i.
