I n l Hundreds Attend Opening Celebration, Address by John Smith Hundreds of people from Tremonton and surrounding territory gathered at Blue Creek last Thursday night to celebrate the occasion of the completion of the new warehouse of the National Grain Growers Ass'n. The spacious building was filled to capacity with a hilarious crowd that had come out in the great valley to celebrate the occasion. A short program was rendered that consisted of the following numbers: Music by Mr .and Mrs. Uriah Wood, address of welcome, Joseph Carlson; vocal duett by the Stoddard boys and an address by Bishop John Smith of Centerdale. Because of the historical value of the address just at this time of the year when we commemorate the coming of the Pioneers and honor those who have builded for us we are happy to give in full this most interesting and admirable speech. In a special meeting of the Box Elder Board of Education held Monday consideration of the petitions present-e- d at their last meeting by the valley people by the four members that were present, Mr. Warburton being absent, bailed to alter the decision previously xeached by them. So as far as the 3)oard is concerned the taxpayers fail-e- d to make any impression upon them, at least favorably so. The matter :now stands that the Bear River children, as heretofore designated must ;go to the Box Elder High,' the Evans school to Bear Eiver City and as to the music instructor the people must do with what they have or do as they are now doing, hire one for themselves This brings the situation to where a statement of the conditions as information gathered discloses should be given to the public as different stories Tiave gone out as to why this was done and the other wasn't done. The editor of this paper has sought information Jrom new and old board members alike and will try and give to the public the conclusions that he has reached durinir this discussion. From reports eminating from the meeting, at which a great many of the taxpayers attended a week or more ago, shows that there are things going on in the board that should be aired. For instance, the board censis--tantl- y claims that the moving of the children from the Bear Eiver Hie-- to the Box Elder High is in the interest of economy and in the discussion of xnis problem the question arose con cerning Mr. A. J. Taylor being transferred with the children to the Roy TCI der High. Immediately the President oi tne Doard denied that such a thing "had been done, or at least that he "was not informed of it and railed nn. - on each one in tarn who likewise said that they knew nothing about it whereupon evidence was by one ot ihe committee waiting upon the board that a letter had been written instructing Mr. Taylor that he would be transferred to the Box Elder school. The writer knows of this let-talso. Now if the board members did not know of such a move who is the person that assumed the "authority to transfer Mr. Taylor without the "knowledge of the board and who wrote t;he letter for it was most certainly -- he-hoard pro-duc- ed -- er written? -- Another instance similar to this one was relative to a certain amount which Tiad been inserted in the budget for a music teacher. When this matter was binder discussion the board members likewise, with the exception of Mr. "Harris was contended before the board and committee that it was in the bud- -- (Please Turn to Page Four) Dr. and Mrs. Charles Harris Home on Visit Dr. and Mrs. Charles Harris are Saint Louis visiting with their parents, Mr. and Mrs. R.

Rough Riders Win Big Double Header The local ball club showed that they are among the best when they defeated Mantua, undefeated leaders of the Southern B. E. Farm Bureau League, in a ten inning contest, by a score of 7 to 6; and then turned around and defeated the classy Weston team, Southern Idaho league leaders by a score of 8 to 5. The first game, although rather loosely played, was a thriller from start to finish. Trailing in the ninth, the classy locals tied the score, and won in the tenth when Haight, erts-whishort stop planted the ball over the right field fence. Sorenson, Mantua chucker, is one of the classiest pitchers seen here this year. The second game was fast tnd well played and was featured by sensational fielding and batting. Ned Waldron made a brilliant catch of a liner in the fourth; Larry Evans hit 3 of 3, two of which were home runs; and Bill Waldron, local leading hitter, hit four out of four. Each team completed two double plays. Rex Hunsaker kept the Idaho boys hits well scattered, besides recording 12 strike outs. Next Sunday the locals play the Logan Collegians, who are reputed to have a strong team. The following are the six leading batters: Bill Waldron, 600; Virg. Cropley, 413; Larry Evans, 300; Earl Watkins 313; Russ Waldron, 302; Hale McDowall, 301. le "Ladies and Gentlemen: We are delighted to see so many friends here this evening to do homage to this new temple of industry The Blue Creek Warehouse; and we trust that a full measure of good will, sympathy and cooperation will abide with all while the ideal for which this building stands is being put over. "Forty years ago Blue Creek, Poca-tel- lo Valley and adjacent country was the shepherds paradise. ', Grass and herbage grew luxuriously and was to be had without price. If on May 10, 1890, the U. S. census had been taken and compiled it would have contained only two names," Sid Knowlton of Grantsville and John W- - Smith of Dayton, sheepherders on their way to ThreeXIreek-for-a- , trail hand of sheep.-- If the tax collector had been assessing' the private property of this region that morning, he could have listed our team, buck board, dog, and a frying pan full of smacking mushrooms as the only private property in this tract. "We returned to Pocatello valley, July 1, with a trail band of 5000 weath ers. So tall and think was the herbage at that time that the flock buried itself in feed in twenty minutes not a sheep in sight; and their presence revealed only by the trembling tops of grass and flowers. "Every fall on our way to the winter range, this region became the shepherd's Meca for a few weeks. Camp lights twinkled at night in close proximity where the sheep camp wagons revealed the numerous homes of the herders. Flocks were grazed one day on the dry grass in the flat valleys. The next day they broused on mountain slopes so that they could lap (Please Turn to Page Four) T. P. Meister Boasts of Earliest Corn in Valley T. P. Meister for a number of year3 has boasted the earliest roasting ears, in this vicinity. Pete has a special corn that matures very rapidly and the water superintendent takes great delight in passing out among his friends a mess of this choice early corn. The editor and wife were the recipients of a bakers dozen that were relished by the family. Plans Made for Lions Interclub Meet Wed. 4- - have been completed for the inter club meet of the Tremonton and Garland Lions Clubs to be held Wednesday, July 29th. Some time ago it was mutually agreed by the clubs that whenever a 5th Wednesdty apptjured in the month it would be used for this The first meet was held at Garland and they proved themselves to be very fine hosts and a large crowd was royally entertained during the evening. The Tremonton committee is at work and some good things can be expected when two clubs come together for this social evening. Arrangements |
