This is the first time in the history of the school that the Bears have ever won a footfall game from the Bees. Playing a heady and bang up game, the Bears broke up rallies and spurts by the funeral and Solemn impressive Bees time and again which looked like services were held over the remains they were surely headed for a touchThomwife of of Edna Nelson Adams, down. as E.

Long before the cortage arrived the chapel was filled to overflowing with friends and relatives, who come to pay their respects to this highly esteemed citizen. Many people, unable to gain admittance, remained on the outside of the building during the services. Huge banks of flowers were also evidence of the esteem in which the deceased was held by her friends. The invocation was offered by R. G. Watt and the special musical numbers included solos, by Bishop C. B. Gunnell, of Howell; Mrs. E. H. White, of Tremonton; Mrs. C. G. Eldridge, "Id Mrs. Rose Adams, of Thatcher; ahd LaVon Stokes, of Tremonton. The speakers were Patriarch James P. Christensen, former Penrose bishop P. N. Pierce, of Brigham City; Elias Dawson, of Layton; President C. E. Smith, of the Bear River stake; Young, of the Ogden Gateway Council, and Dr. E. H. White, of Tremonton. Resolutions of respect from Post No. 10 of the American Legion were read by J. Wesley Horsley. Many glowing tributes were paid by the speakers to this young mother, whose life has been devoted to the service of her family and community and whose every act and desire was in an effort to fill up her measure of creation in usefulness and helpfulness to her husband and family. She was a devout christian, in whose life the essence and purity of religion was exemplified. Her life was sacrificed in fulfilling God's great command and it was done without the slightest murmur and with cheerfulness and full purpose of heart. These and many other deserving tributes were paid this devoted mother. Tributes of high respect and love were also paid her husband and her family. Mr. Adams, by the aid and helpful-s- s of his devoted wife, has been one Ji the outstanding scout executives in Jhe Bear River stake, making an enviable record in the great amount of work and time that he has always found to devote to this work along with the other multiplicity of duties. The deceased and her husband, it was pointed out, had been true to the ideals and examples set by their parents in carying forth community and religious activity. Hundreds of friends throughout the valley deeply sympathize with the husband and parents of this young mother and acknowledge in her passing the keen loss that they and this community have sustained. Mrs. Adams sickness commenced some three weeks ago when complications set in following the birth of twins, who died shortly after birth. Edna Nelson Adams was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. N. C. Nelson, of Thatcher and was born September 13, 1902, at Brigham City. She was married to Thomas E. Adams in 1922. From this union there has come 8 children, five of whom survive. They are: Arlo, Leo, Orin, Neal and Beverly. Aside from these children and her husband she is survived by her parents, two brothers and one sister. Interment was made in Thatcher, 'Roy Anderson dedicating the grave. Shaw and Iverson were the funeral directors. , I j To Correspondents Monday morning. Elder Hugh J- - Dunn is Home from Mission Elder Hugh Joe Dunn, who for the past two years has been laboring as an L. D. S. missionary in the Hawaiian Islands, returned home Friday, of last week after fulfilling a successful mission and receiving an honorable release Elder Dunn officially reported his labors Sunday evening at the sacrement meeting and told briefly of his experiences while on the Islands. He strongly upheld the honor and integrity of the Island people and referred briefly to the Massie case in defence of the Hawaiians said it was not a Hawaiian but less than a half breed who committed the crime and that records show that few, if any, of the pure Hawaiian race had ever been convicted of a major crime. Elder Dunn's address was pleasing and forceful and was closed by an expression of appreciation for the opportunity to labor as a missionary from the Tremonton ward and that he was happy to be home among his friends and loved ones again. His grandfather Dunn and a number of his uncles and their wives, from Cache Valley, were in attendance at the services. .

TAXPAYERS MAY MAKE PARTIAL PAYMENTS ON TAXES BUT ALL MUST BE PAID BEFORE DUE DATE TO PREVENT SALE OF PROPERTY Because of the intense interest in the tax situation in this county and the activities of the taxpayers committee, which was selected a month ago in a mass meeting, a letter of instruction, received by the chairman of that committee, E. J. Holmgren, from the State Tax Commission, m part is herewith printed. Information received from the County Treasurer this morning is to the effect that his office will receive partial tax payments in order to help the payment of taxes. This does not change, however, the fact that if the full amount has not been paid before the delinquent date, which is Dec. 20, this year, by special designation, the property will be sold to the county lor the portion not due. In other words the full amount of the tax must be paid before the due date to prevent tne sale of the property to the county. That taxpayers might have an idea of the Tax Commission's stand we print part of the circular as follows: To County Treasurers: There is no provision in the law prohibiting County Treasurers from receiving payments on account oi delinquent taxes while the Certificate of Sale is held by the county, provided that no redemption is made until all uelinquent taxes charged, together with the penalties and interest thereon, have been paid, and provided that the period of redemption is not extended. The period of redemption is four years beginning with the first sale lor delinquent taxes. If taxes subsequently assessed against the same property are not paid, these with penalties and interest, as well as the taxes and penalty for which the property was sold originally, must be paid w"ithin the redemption period before a redemption can be allowed. So long as the Certificate of Tax Sale is held by the County, these sums need not be paid in one installment and so long as all are paid before the redemption period expires, the rerequirements of the law respecting demption from the tax sales will be satisfied. If, however, any part of them remain unpaid at the time the redemption period expires, the property must be conveyed to the county and sold for the balance unpaid as provided in Sections (3030 and i0.rf), (as amended by Laws of 1921, page 384) Compiled Laws of Utah. Consequently County Treasurers may accept payments on account of delinquent taxes and need not refuse to accept tenders of sums less than the full amount required to redeem. Limitation of Rule It should be noted, that this circular applies only to cases where the Certificate has been assigned and held pursuant to Sec. 0023, (as amended by Laws of 1919, page 339.) Instructions The following instructions are issued for the guidance of County Treas urera in the receipt of payments on account and the apportionment of the same. The amount which any may accept on account of taxes must be left to his Small payments, frequently Treasurer delinquent discretion. made, will very greatly increase the work of the Treasurer's office. But the Tax Commission is satisfied that payments in reasonable amounts will not unduly burden County Treasurers and will greatly facilitate the redemption of property and afford considerable relief to the taxpayer who desires to terminate as soon as possible the running of a heavy penalty rate of interest. Form of Receipt When payments on account of delinquent taxes are accepted by the Treasurer, the taxpayer should be made to distinctly understand that the period of redemption is not thereby extended and that there will be no refund of the amount paid in the event the full amount due is not paid before the redemption period expires. To avoid misunderstanaings on this point it is suggested that the receipt issued by the Treasurer for any such payment contain in conspicuous type the following substance: "No redemption certificates will be issued until the full amount of all delinquent taxes, together with penalties and interest as provided by law have been paid, and unless such sum is paid on or prior to (time here specified) the property against which said taxes are a lien will be conveyed to the county for the amount of the same, less such amounts as have been theretofore paid." Because of varying conditions in the different counties, the Tax Commission is hesitant to suggest any general rule for the guidance of Treasurers in determining how small amounts it will be practical to accept. This will necessarily have to be determined by each Treasurer in accordance with the conditions prevailing j The Stake M. L A. Road Show, presented Wednesday evening in the south end and Thursday evening in the north, is now a matter of history so far as this year is concerned but with its completion their lingers the satisfaction and opinion that it was the best and most succesful yet staged. Among the eleven wards that participated there was not a lagging moment nor a poor act presented and everything went with dispatch and promptness. Among the acts presented their were two or three that were exceptionally outstandnig .and brought warm praise from those who witnessed. The wards participating throughout the stake are to be congratulated upon their accomplishment. The public is not unmindful of the amount of effort that is required to have these acts appear on time throughout the evening without delay in the transportation from ward to ward, which required no little effort. The full show will be presented Friday evening for the benefit of the participants. There was an unusually large attendance at the Tremonton ward. Other wards were equally as well patronized. Senator-Elec- t Has Colorful Career SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 16. With his election to the United States senate, a new page is written in the colorful career of Dr. Elbert D. Thomas, professor of history and political science at the University of Utah. At is doubtforty-ninthe senator-elec- t less on the threshold of a career in national political life that will dim his many other brilliant achievements in the fields of education and political service. Honored with membership in a score of professional, scholastic, honorary, and social societies, Dr. Thomas, along with the noted sculptor, Cyrus Dallin, is the only Utahn mentioned in the British "Who's Who." was graduated The senator-elec- t from the University of Utah with a B.

He taught Latin and Greek for two years, and in 1915 became secretary and registrar of the e, MUCH INTEREST BEING SHOWN IN SCHOOL ELECTION Selection of County Superintendent Adds Interest to Election Now that the general election has been settled interests center on that school board election, which will be held in two districts of this county Dec. 7th. In the north end, so far, two have filed intentions of running; for the office John J. Shumway, in- . cumbent, and Hyrum Jensen, both of Garland. In the south end LeRoy incumbent, J. Wilton Ward, of Willard, and M. G. Perry, of Dewey-vill- e, are likely candidates for the office. Interest is heightened in this election from the fact that a county superintendent of schools will be named e, to succeed Superintendent C. H. who was recently elected on the democratic ticket to State Superintendent of Public Instruction. Names that have "been mentioned to take Mr. Skidmore's place and are likely candidates, are, C. E. Smith, principal of the Bear River high school; John Benson, instructor at the same school; John W. Peters, former instructor at the Box Elder high school and at present a member of the Board of Education; Orson A. Christensen, former instructor at the Box Elder high school and at present agricultural superintendent of the Garland Beet District. The name of Reuben D. Law has also been mentioned in connection with the position. Mr. Law at present is Superintendent of the Rich County schools and was a of the Bear River high school , faculty. From the above list it is quite evident that Box Elder county has men who are capable of filling this position. In this respect Mr. Law could be considered as a Box Elder county man. In addition to the above factors that are making the race for school board members interesting another factor of tax reduction is finding a prominent place in the campaign that is being waged for the office. Citizens of both ends of the county will watch with interest the developments in the race or the school board members.
