Fonnesbeck, of Howell, died at the Valley Hospital Wednesday morning following an op eration for appendicitis. Miss Fonnesbeck left Logan Friday and went to Howell to visit her parents for a few days. After arriving there, she complained of not feeling well and Monday it was decided that she come to Tremonton and consult a Upon examination, it was physician. found that she was suffering from an attack of appendicitis and an opera tion was performed that day. Tues day evening she was feeling exception ally well and entered into jovial con versation with her parents. The fol lowing morning, however, found her in a serious condition which had sua denly come upon her and she soon passed awray. Miss Fonnesbeck was born at Cache Junction, July 20, 1908. She attended the Bear River high school and was graduated from that institution. Later she entered the Dee Hospital in training for a nurse, having graduat ed from that institution one year ago, Since graduating, she has nursed in Ogden, Logan and m the Valley Hospital in Tremonton and had gained a splendid reputation for her knowledge of the profession and for the faithful performance of her duty under all cir cumstances.

According to her par ents, she had been an unusually healthy person, having had but few, if any, sick days in her life. Mr .and Mrs. Fonnesbeck are highly respected and widely known citizens both in this county and in Cache county, having been prominent in re ligious and civic affairs in both com munities, many of their children hav ing risen to high respect and esteem among their fellowmen.

Funeral services will be held in the 6th ward at Logan, Sunday at 1 p. m. Authorization for federal land banks to issue up to $2,000,000,000 in bonds, with interest guaranteed by the Unit ed States, and either exchange the bonds for first mortgages on farms or sell them and use the money to make new loans to farmers, is one of the principal features of the farm mortgage section of the Agricultural Adjustment Act, according to information issued by the Farm Credit Administration, which administers this section of the Act. The Farm Credit administration began functioning on May 27 as provided for in President Roosevelt's executive order issued March 27, 1933. The agencies to be consolidated under the new administration include the Federal Farm Board; the Federal Farm Loan Bureau which has juris diction over the federal land banks, joint stock land banks and intermediate credit banks; the regional agricultural credit corporations of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation, and the Crop Production loan division of the United States Department of Agri culture. The farm mortgage section of the Farm Act makes it possible to lower the intrest rates on both old and new loans, and to permit borrowers, generally, to extend payment on the principal of their loans from the federal land banks, and to loan money directly to farmers in districts where there are no national farm loan associations through which applications may be accepted. It also provides for a farm loan commisisoner's loans to be made direct to farmers from agents of the farm loan commissioner located in each of the 12 federal land bank districts. Applications for information or loans under the new Act, the Farm Credit administration says, should be of the made to the secretary-treasurnational loan association in the coun ty in which the applicant's farm in located, or to the federal land bank serving his state. In the absence of a loan association farmers should get in touch with their county agricultural agent. The federal land bank for this dis trict is at Berkeley, California. er one-ha- lf facie Maurice Pack and wife have enjoyed their business venture, which has been profitable to them, but are awaiting an opportunity to return to Utah, and particularly this community. Local Citizens Visit At Camp Williams Mrs. O. D. Luke, C. L. Luke, Norma Harris and Flo Luke had the honor, Monday afternoon of visiting Camp Williams and seeing Brigadier General W. G.

Gardner, wife of Col. Hamilton Gardner, commanding officer of the regiment, who presented it to the regiment. The color presentation was follow-v- d by retreat parade. Immediately retreat the four guests were ed to have supper with the head quarter battery, the boys from Garland. During the meal, talks were given by the commanding officer.

Power Co. Warns Farmers to Use Care In Moving Derricks Don't move a hay derrick under electric wires with the boom up. Take no chances. Don't touch chains or wet ropes if the derrick is near the line. If in doubt, call the nearest office of the Utah Power and Light company. They will gladly cooperate in moving the derrick safely under the line and there is no charge for these services. As the haying season approaches, the above timely message is sent out in the interest of protecting lives by avoiding accidents. While the power company is not legally responsible for accidents caus-t- d ty hay derricks coming in contact with their lines, the matter is of much concern to them because they appreciate the fact that many people do not 'ealize the danger involved. Their lines are given ample clearance from the ground so that ordinary traffic may proceed under them without any danger. However, when some exceptionally high piece of apparatus, such as a hay derrick with its boom raided, is moved under the lines, se'ious inuble occurs. With the boom down and levtl, and securely fastened, the derrick can ordinarily pass under thf liv.es in safety. It is also pointed out that mutal and wer ropes carry electricity, whhe dry wood or ropes will not. Therefore, any hay derrick design which involves a metal cable for lifting hay, or which is braced by metal or wire is not safe and should be avoided. Spot cord is recommended as a substitute for metal or wire. Use of a chain to hold the boom is a dangerous practice, as anyone near it at the time the bo m runs into a charged power line is apt t.i be seriously injured. An ordinary rope will serve the purpose very satisfactorily. These precautions are urged, and the cervices of the power company are offered free of charge In movirg haj derricks, solely to protect people trvm serious and fatal accidents. Don't take chances. It may incun ti e sacrifice of human life. Three Garland Ladies Descendants of John A. Hurt As Car Upsets Larson Hold Reunion BRIGHAM CITY Three women of Garland were injured and a new sedan badly damaged Monday at 9 a. m. in an automobile accident on the state highway just south of Seventh South street Mrs. C. L. Pender, driver of the car, sustained a cut on the forehead, bruises about the body and suffered from shock. Mrs. Grace Haws suffered a badly wrenched back and cuts and bruises, and Miss Phyllis Haws cuts on the shoulder and legs and minor brunses. Mrs. A. Burgess, the other occupant of the car, was not injured. Deputy Sheriff Fred Sorensen, who investigated, said the women were driving south and, while attempting to pass a car, their machine slipped off the left side of the pavement, the front wheel striking a rock. Mrs. Pender, the driver, applied the brakes and the car turned to the right and after crossing the cement highway, tipped over. Descendants of the late John A. Larson, first premanent settler of East Garland, and the territory comprising the original Garland ward, met in a family reunion Sunday afternoon, June 4th, at the home of John W. Larson, eldest son. Children and grand children were present from San Francisco, Los Angeles, Salt Lake City, Brigham City, Garland, Perry, Collinston and East Gariand. All living descendants attended the reunion except a grandson and wife of New York, a grand daughter in San Francisco and a grand daughter and family of Rigby, Idaho. The time spent together was so much enjoyed that it was decided to make special plans for celebrating in May 1934, as May 6. 1934 is the one hundredth anniversary of this veteran pioneer, and also marks the fiftieth year since he, with his family made their permanent home here in the little valley on the Bear river. THIRTY-EIGH- T Farewell Testimonial CLUB MEETING Given Edith Anderson HAS BANK UP A farewell testimonial was tendered Edith E. Anderson, president of the ward Relief Society, Wednesday evening, prior to her departure for Salt Lake City, Thursday morning, where she will make her future home. Mrs. Anderson with her late husband, Lars Anderson, were early settlers of this valley and have done much to the building up of this community, always active in religious and civic affairs, Mrs. Anderson has served as presi- -' dent of the local Relief Society during the past nine months during which time she has endeared herself into the hearts of the people of this community because of her unselfish and untir- ing efforts in the welfare of those who have needed assistance. Many loving tributes were paid to her during the evening's program in appreciation of her labors in the ward and she was presented with a cameo necklace representing the three graces, faith, hope and charity. Her many friends and associates regret that it has became necessary for her to leave the ward, but wish her "God speed" and success in her new home. American Petroleum Co. toBujld Gas Station This morning (Thursday) work on the construction of a modern service station to be erected on the sight of the old L. D. S. hall, by the American Petroleum Company. Members of the ward, through donation labor have nearly completed the tearing down of the old building to make room for a new and modern structure. Considerable could be said in a reminiscent way of the service rendered to the public by this old hall, as it is now known, that formed the basis for the first recreation civic center in this community. The building was erected in 1912 when Tremonton was in its infancy and has been used for every kind of a service from the burying of the respected dead and builders of this community, to wrestling and boxing matches, which were permitted after it was abandoned as a place of worship, following the construction of the new L. D. S. chapel. Considerable sentiment has been attached to the old building, because of the varied services it has rendered to a new growing community and in spite of the fact that it has passed its usefulness, having been replaced by new and more modern houses, many there are who will link fond memories with the dismantling of the ojd L, D. S. hall. commenced FOR DISCUSSION Time is Set to Hear Proposition of First Nat'lof Brightm At the weekly business meeting of the Lions club Wednesday evening, at which most of the business men of the city attended, the question of securing a bank for this city was again under discussion, It was reported that the First National Bank of Brigham City desired to meet with the Lions club and outline their policy,' should government legislation permit them to establish a branch bank here. discussion was had as to the best time to hear these representatives and finally Monday of next week was set as the time, , It was thought, according to press bill reports, that the would be passed before Monday of next week and give the club an opportunity at their next regular club meeting Wednesday to do something definite with respect to accepting the proposition of another bank, which has already been made. Following the discussion, it was suggested, and in fact had been previously suggested, that a new bank committee be named as some members of the previous committee had k expressed an opinion in favor of over another and in order that an unbiased opinion and report might be had it was unanimously agreed that Lion President Bishop should act as an member of the committee and named three in addition. The committee named consisted of George Abbott, Alma Theurer, and Fred Gephart. This committee wa entirely satisfactory to the members present and it will be their duty to investigate all phases and angles that would be valuable information to put before the Lions club, which would guide them in a decision with respect to recommending the bank best suited for the intrests of this valley. It was also brought out that the depositors must be taken into consideration and that the best possible arrangements for their benefit should ' be made. , Con-sidera- Glass-Steaga- U one-ban- io .
