Let's assume that Mr. Scott drives 1,000 miles each month, and see just what he will lose or gain by driving at different speeds. If he travels the whole distance at 35 miles per hour, it will cost him $17.88, or 1.79 cents per mile. Just suppose he steps on the accelerator up to 45 miles per hour. He will save 6.4 hours in 1,000 miles, but it will cost him an extra $4.15, or 65 cents an hour for every hours he saves. But let's assume he is really in a S. NORMAN LEE , Pv A C T O R Established 40 Years KRHJIIAM CITY. UTAH responsible hurry (probably for no good reason), and that he drives 65 miles per hour instead of his conventional 35. He will save 13.2 hours, but he will lose d an extra, $20.75, thus costing him $1.57 an hour for every hour he has saved. A few more computations bring to light another interesting fact. As he travels faster, he saves less time at a greater expense. When he increases his speed from 35 to 35, he saves 6.4 hours in 1,000 miles at a cost of 65 cents an hour saved, but on an increase from 55 to 65, he saves only 2.8 hours at a cost of $2.96 an hour saved. These are just traveling expenses, and this extra cost of driving fast can be paid by everyone once in a while. These expenses do not, however, take into consideration the most vitally important item the increased danger of accidents at higher speeds. Hospital bills, doctor bills and intense suffering exact a far greater toll than a few extra gallons of gasoline or an extra quart of oil. Being crippled for life is even worse. "Speed Ii Expensive.

If Ogden North Ward of Ogden stake can obtain the enviable record of 87 per cent of the Aaronic Priesthood at their conference, surely we can do as well. Let us set out to fill the Tabernacle, a feat we have not clone for years. Of their priests enrolled, 33, they had 28 present; teachers enrolled, 18, 14 present; deacons enrolled 36, present, 34. Of 132 ward teachers enrolled, 120 attended the conference. How did they do it, This is how: Practically every ordained teacher and priest is a ward teacher. They undertook an outstanding activity of extending to every family a special invitation to attend the conference. This invitation was given in most cases in their regular visits to the homes, which were made earlier than usual, to meet the conference date. Near the date of the conference, by telephone calls and special visits, each family was reminded of the conference. Teachers were especially urged to attend the conference as an example. Always those invited look for the one who invited them. This outstanding service from one ward in that Ogden stake conference se-- t Advertising Does Four Things 1 ''Is If you conduct a retail store, there are four things you wish to do (1) You wish to HOLD all of your present customers.

Of the 1022 members of their ward they had 554 or 45 per cent in attendance. Picture to your minds out pride in a conference where the house is filled by your efforts. Why such an effort? Because these conferences are the time and place where our priesthood military drill masters meet us and give us the thrill that drives us onward in our spiritual conquest to victory over the forces of evil that are now stealthily sneaking into our homes by radio, tobacco and liquor adds, into our dances with lewd characters lowerinp our standards, into our hearts with alluring thoughts of physical pleas ures that weaken our faith and physi cal power. To carry on "without thu loss of a single one of our number" we must be at conferences, ward sac rament meetings quorum meetings and every honest assignment from bishop, parents and "all duly con stituted authorities." Why carry on? Why all these in structions? Why all these big meetings and why all this talk about pray er, Christ, priesthood, etc.?
