Dear Sir: I have noticed in the Salt Lake papers that the young Democrats in Box Elder county had a reorganization meeting in Brigham City and elected their officers. I am unable to find and Young Democrat from Tremonton Precinct that had been notified of same meeting. How Come?' Tour truly, Otto Schenkel. COUNTY COMMISSIONERS - He liked a good fight, he was stubborn as Old Nick, and he had a normal man's interest in a lady's company, if you can call that a fault also. But when it came to square dealing and high moral standards he was all there. Wheat Ordered to ar-$- municipal bodies and taxpayers cerning flood control, erosion and other problems arising in the Wasatch Range which extends North and South along the Eastern boundary of Box Elder County, It is the unanimous concensus of opinion of the municipal bodies present, as well as the taxpayers, and concurred in by the Commirsioners, that the public interest would be best served by having the. Cache National Forest extended Westward so as to include at least the Western slopes of the Wasatch Range in Box Elder County. At this gathering it was pointed out that property owners and citizens residing or interested along the said Wasatch Range are in great fear of future and further damage to their persons and property by reason of the present plan of overgrazing and maintaining the mountain bare of timber thereby encouraging great erosion and floods. It is respectfully requested that you your utmost efforts to obtain the extension of the Cache National Forest westward so as to include the Wasatch Range in Box Elder County. Any suggestions you may have as to how this cause may be furthered would be appreciated by the County Commissioners of Box Elder County, the Mayors of Willard, Perry, Mantua, Honeyville and Brigham City, as well as the electors generally.

Lion Leon Kerr acted as the "Talkie" of the picture describing the scenes as they were fhown, reading from a descriptive circular which accompanies the pictures. It is safe to say that there wasn't a Lion who saw the pictures who did not regret that he did not attend. Two or three things happened during the meeting that threw the Lions Into a fit of 'laughter. The first was when our genial druggist, Fred M, Christensen went into meeting late and Tail Twister Wayne Sandall attempted to collect his dime. Fred tried the old gag that had worked on two previous occasions of talking the tail twister into paying bis fine. This and evidently something had been planned, for Sari Marble put his arms around Fred and held his arms securely at his side. Fred, with all the rest of the Lions, thought he was searching for a dime when quick as a flarh Wayne jerked out his pocket knife and clipped his tie in half. It was done so quickly the Lions did not know what had happened and they were nearly as surprised as Fred, who, during the rest of the evening, kept trying to tuck the little butt that was left down in nis vo:t, but to no avail as is struck .straight out and took on the same action as a goatee would on ones chin, each time he spoke or swallowed " WANTS I .?

The accident occured as the bus, driven by A. A. Johnson of Beaver Dam, traveled toward Collinston. It was reported that if the bus had gone a few feet farther it would have rolled more than 50 feet down an embankment to the bottom of the canyon. With the exception of minor bruises and shock, the students escaped injury. The caure of the accident is said to have been the uneven condition of the road, where one side was piled high with snow, making the track slanting. Joseph Beeton, state road superintendent, assisted Johnson in righting the bus, and the children were delivered safely to school. At the close of the stake M Men basket ball tournament last Saturday evening, referee Bates paid the teams and the spectators a high compliment on their good rportsmanship and added that there had not been one resentful word uttered to the officials by the players or the fans. He said that it had never been his privilege during the years he had officiated to work with a better group of true sportsmen than the players and' fans of the Bear River etake.
