Actually, of its total length, 460 miles are in British Columbia The scenery in the Columbia Valley is remarkably fine, with the Selkirkg on the one hand and the towering Rockies on the other. A very convenient route is by way of Spokane, entering British Columbia at Kingsgate. From there one proceeds through Cranbrook to the valley proper, and goes on to Radium Hot Springs or Golden, gateways to Canada's magnificent National Parks of Kootenay and Yoho respectively, where the scenery is superb and quite beyond description. From Golden the visitor may ship his car to Revelstoke, a distance of roughly 90 miles, and from there drive on to Vancouver and the Coast. The inset shows a section of this road beside Kicking Horse River, Yoho National Park. "fX ,? "A music B Poem Stilled Strife JilLLINGSlscredited WILLIAM the author of the first Amcrleun patriotic sont;, one that became popular with Olo-inltrooiis In the 'war, although there una no specific title to it. Another early one was "The Liberty Song," published In 1708, calling on the people to unite jfor liberty. The first American-madpatriotic nea song was "The Yankee " written uhout 1778, to commemorate the exploits of Capt. IJolm Paul Jones. "Yankee Doodle," iknown as an American patriotic bal-:lawas an F.ngllsh song at the beginning of the Revolution and an .American song at Its close. It was ordered played by General Lafayette at the surrender of the British n forces at Yorktown. Joseph wrote the words of "Hall Columbia," which were adapted to the air of the "President's March," the composer of which Is not definitely known. "The Banner" was written by Francis Scott Key after witnessing the bombardment of Ft. Mellenry Id 1S1-jThe air Is from a song by the English composer, John Stafford Smith, 'entitled "Ode to Anacreon." The words and music of "Columbia, the Gera of the Ocean," equally well ,'known as "The Red, White and lue," were written by Thomas a Becket, an English actor playing !at the Chestnut Street theater In Philadelphia In IS 13. It Is used In .England with suitable alteration of the text, as an army and navy song.

AHE first spring following the the Civil war found a group of southern women decorating the graves of the soldier dead. They placed their floral tributes on all the graves regardless of the color of the uniform the burled men wore. That these mothers, sisters and widows could remember the northern soldiers with the same tribute of love that they remembered their own dead brought about a feeling of tolerance all over the country. Thta little ceremony Inspired the poet, Francis Miles Finch, to write his poem, "The Blue and the Gray." Later It waa set to music, and the singing and reading of It did more to reestablish barmony than any of the well thought out plans of reconciliation of the diplomats. The second spring after the war, the northern women decorated the graves of the southern men as well as the graves of their own dead. In 1S6S General Logan commanded all the soldiers' graves to be decorated. The same year New York declared Memorial day a legal holiday and state after state followed Its example. So one day toward the latter part of May the dead are honored and Just tribute Is paid to J close of PRIZE BUST OF LEE Among the thin ranks of the G. A.

A material increase is recommended for chickens and turkeys. limited Poultry numbers are not and the by the size of the farm, planning board committees state that many small farms might profitably increase their poultry ana flocksCounty committeemen felt that ahilp hwf cattle mieht be slight ly increased, dairy cows provide a more intensive utilization of feed and produce a higher gross return than beef cattle or sheep. Sheep are the only livestock in which a decrease is recommend ed. This decrease is urged that some decrease in sheep is necessary in order to restore the forage on the ranges. In a few dry farm setions, it is recommended that the poorest land be utilized for grazing purposes since crop failures are so frequent that cultivation seems impracticable in view of probable future grain prices. In some districts where the irrigation supply is spread over a wide scattered area, it is apparent that better returns to farmers can be secured if the available irrigation supply is concentrated on fewer acres and more water supplied to the land irrigated. "After the planning boards have had sufficient time to study probable changes that are embodied in the present recommendations," remarked Dr. Wheatley. "The extension service is cooperating with county agricultural planning boards to assist them in continuing their work of trying to arrive at workable and practical plans which will fully care for Utah's problem of a large number of people in rural areas with a small number of agricultural resources for their use." 'y?ffif EFFECT STATE SET UP FOR AAA The agricultural conservation program has now reached a point where permanent organizations can be effected in the various counties in Utah, according to Director Wm. Peterson of the Utah State Agricultural college extension service, who is in charge of the administration for this state. Each county will be organized on the basis of a community with but one committee. Committeemen will be chosen after agricultural interests and geographic divisions have been considered, Director Peterson said. Each committee will be comprised of three members who will be elected by the farmers on or before meetA ROADSIDE STAND May 23 at a county-wid- e ing to be called by the county A roadside stand may be just agent.

Younger men, veterans of later wars, take the place of those who wore the blue or gray from Bull Run to Appomattox, aa symbols of the nation's strength In arms. Forms of observance change with the times, but the underlying spirit of thankful remembrance remains ever fresh and unalterable. To those who first thought of setting apart a day each year for patriotic remembrance such an event as that now staged annually In various cities, the baseball double headers or the highways crowded with pleasure-seekin- g motorists would have been as Inconceivable as the radio to an aborigine. Cut one likes to believe that these manifestations of American life do not In the least modify the nation's sense of devotion to the memory of those who have borne her arms to victory. There Is needed In these diverting and troublous days some special occasion when minds shall turn to the men who have dared to bare their breasts to an enemy In war, who have seen In their country's flag something more than a piece of bunting and been convinced that a nation worth founding was worth defending even at the expense of life and treasure. One hears much In these days of pacifism, of oaths solemnly taken never to bear arms In war, of the supposed mockery of popular government, the rise of dictatorships and the smashing of treaty pledges. One hears too little of the Innumerable thousands of stanch American hearts which still believe In national honor, the Constitution and the causes for which men In the past have been proud to die. A people ready to observe Memorial day Is not one to give way to despair. Today we honor the patriotic dead. We honor, no less, the living who are Inspired by the example of those whose graves they decorate. Where Our Troops Stopped A HUGGED monument of war zation for two years.
