Thomas, (D., Utah) pleaded for support to the President's plan of judicial reform Tuesday night, x eDruary 16, in a nation-wid- e broadcast over the Mutual Broadcasting system. . Senator Thomas endorsed the essence of the president's plan, and Implied strongly that it was made necessary by abuses which the judiciary has inflicted upon the other branches of government. "The President's recommendations," he declared, "are in no sense as harsh as most of the critics of the supreme-cour-t have been. The president's recommendations, to the ordinary constitutional law student, are mild. "We have what is called a separa tion of powers, and the whole thing works, as I have said, by peaceful processes.

The opera was exceptionally! well performed and superbly sung. Directed by Mr. George O. Nye, it was generally declared to be the most finished performance the high school lias done in many years. Helen Thompson, in the title role received much applause. Her clear voice reached the high notes with ease and her difficult aires were well sung. Cleo Nye's performance as the Kitchen Boy was excellent, her speaking lines being well given and her solos and her' duets with the Nightingale beautifully sung. Stanley Johnson was the Emperor of China and his performance was one of the outstanding features of the show. His work reveals unusual histrionic talent The Prime Minister, well portrayed by France Standing, was a jovial, quietly humorous person, who performed his part very well. Bobbie Innes added poise and beau-tto the cast in her role as the Princess Morning Star. Though the opera contained only one dance, it was very well done by Hoilyn Bettenson, Madge Earl and Naomi Gaddie. Others in the cast were Odell Burns, Lowell Burbank and Arnold Larsenl in the roles of Goaler, Physician and Musician respectively; Amy ennst- opherson and Norma Crozier as court gossips; and Ferris Nielson as the iSmperor of Japan. Mcrril Wassom gave an outstanding portrayal of Death in the scene where in Death comes to take the soul of the dying Emperor, but is driven away by the Nightingale's song. Nina Richards and Anna Watkins had the speaking parts among the flower giils, who received much ap-I- n plause for their chorus numbers. tfiPIe ,i I soil-buildi- j ' soll-bulidl- Last Rabbit Roundup non-diversi- Be Held Sunday Emergency Freight Rate Is Decreased Until February 23 Emergency caption UnlMnra rent iicixiiuiii oci, xxuiiut Tr rswnlif Kin a nor been had reduction rate For First Seven MOlltnS, emergencyto the livestock men The Tremonton Merchants committee have set the following holidays as those that will be observed for the first seven months of the year by tho Tremonton merchants and ask all acpatrons to govern their shopping cordingly: BirthFebruary 22, Washington's July Decoration Day; 31, day; May 5.

He told of the tourist trade of the state that was estimated at $36,000,-00- 0 fop the last year and declared that Tremonton was ideally situated to get her full share of the money brought Into the state by tourists. He listed some of the thlxurs that could be used in advertising this community. uie ouniy rair, rich agricultural valleys, with an abundant water supply; and the advantage of the shortcut roads going through Tremonton. He said that advertisinir was the only means of putting the community on the map and that the moie that was done the greater the results to be obtained and sighted Oregon and auiorma as examples In advertising and of the huge benefits they are deriving from the advertising campaign by the great flocks of tourists that traverse their states. Following Mr. Perry's talk, Mr. Snyder, also from the Chamber of Commerce of Salt Lake, spoke briefly on the same subject. He said you cannot advertise to the people on the outside until you have sold your community to its own people; that the people at home when thoroughly conversant with the advantages and opportunities of their own community, through letter and word of mouth to friends and relatives on the outside, sing its praises. This applies to the community, the speaker said.
