Show j. P10V0 HERALD Four Pages of Comics today wm Tl The newest plan to fclean up danc ing in Provo is not to close dance halls where a few couples violate good dancing form but to make it impossible for those dancers to get into dance halls. Recreational Director E. L. Roberts has issued the following edict: "Violators or good dancing rules must be refused admission to all dance halls until they have learned how to dance as they should. If any dancer is ejected at one hall for improper dancing he, or she. cannot dance at any other hall during the period of his, or her, suspension. That applies to the oldest dancer as well as to the thoughtless young person." Public comment upon the director's ruling, reaching The Herald office, upholds the "dance blacklist" almost Prominent citizens inunanimously. terviewed by The Herald insist that the "dance blacklist" will do more toward cleaning up danciner here than any other measure within the director's power. It will be better, most people think, than closing halls for the latter would deprive other dancers of their opportunity to dance. "Wednesday morning the faculty of the Provo High school went on record as in favor of the stand being taken at certain dance halls in our city pertaining to elimination of certain undesirables," said Principal H. R. Atkin. of the Provo High schoool. "Furthermore," he added, "the faculty couhcil flEIS By PRANK E. MASON, BH from our dances any person who has been eliminated from any other dance hall in the city for any purpose whatsoever." Mr. Atkin has written to Director Roberts: "We want you to know that we stand with all four feet behind you in anything that is for the improvement of dancing. If, therefore, you will send us a list from time to time of persons who are eliminated from the Brig-haYoung university dances, or from any other dance hall, we shall see to it that they are eliminated from our dances also." Mr. Atkin informs The Herald tha not only is the High school faculty in favor of this regid elimination of undesirables from school dances but practically all of the students are .urgent that High school dances be freed of the undesirables. "What is an 'undesirable'?" was asked Director Roberts. "The the clumsy bunny-hugger- s. s, the awkward the intoxicated, the boisterous, all those who violate good dancing form." The director was quick, though, to disclaim any desire to suppress new dances. He, rather, favors, keeping abreast of the latest and newest dances. "We merely want to eliminate those whose social brakes are not in good working order," he said. m cheek-to-cheeke- camel-walker- ISSUE FOR COUNTY Hi WORK - IH L 1 n. oue-hal- e. -- out-of-to- -- PROVO Sutton-Chas- e Drug Co. Sam Kopp's Grocery PRICE THREE CENTS. MARKET BY JUNE 1 A good deal of interest has been aroused in Provo by the announcement in Wednesday's issue of The Herald of the opening up of the large slate deposits in Slate canyon. From all the (information obtain able, the company expects to have Provo slate on the market not later than June 1. Mr. Cunningham states that the present plans of the company call for the construction of a crushing and screening plant to manufac ture slate granulates used in the surfacing of prepared roofing. While the organization of the company is not completed, awaiting the arrival of W. D. Morland from the East, it is expected that this will be completed in a few days. The development of this Industry should bring several hundred thou sand dollars of new money into Provo each year and will also create additional payrolls for this city. Owing to the fact that Provo has the finest body of commercial slate in the West it should not be long until the Provo Slate Products company supplies the entire coast and intermoun-tai- n region with this product. The company is now in touch with several experienced slate men and ex pects to have a superintendent on the ground within the next month. Under the present plans the company claims to be able to place slate shingles on the market at "practically the same price as wood shingles. Architects and ibuilders claim that this will practically do away with the use of wood shingles in this section. While roofing will be the principal product of the Provo Slate Products company, it will also turn out structural slate, billiard table tops, electric skitchboards, and other forms of slate for structural purposes. At the present time all the slate used in this section Is being shipped and from Vermont, Pennsylvania, other Eastern localities. Provo slate will eliminate this long haul and the consequent saving will bring slate products within the reach of every prospective builder. PRESIDEN T AND Gil T R A County Newspaper D.R.G. DUBLIN, Jan. 6 Eamonn DeValera this afternoon resigned as "president of the Irish republic" and as executive of the Sinn Fein. The Sinn Fein cabinet resigned with DeValera. The resignations are believed to mark the collapse of serious opposition to the Irish peace treaty in Dail Eireann. "I resign as chief executive authority and with my resignation goes the entire ministry," said DeValera in a statement to the public. "When I came out of jail I found Arthur Griffith, head of the political section of the Sinn Fein, and C. Brugha, head of the Irish Republican army. They differed and then, as now, I was the connecting link. I believe that Brugha represented the heart of the Irish people. "The cabinet has tried hard to get the two sides into harmony. "When" the treaty was signed in Lon don my task was to end the split forever. On October 23 I wrote to London that if recognition of the English king was essential that the Irish would not If it is accept the peace agreement. to be war, I said, then it would be better for it to come immediately. Griffith broke his promise to me on December 3 not to sign any docu ment pledging allegiance to the king. I believe we could have got a settlement without becoming British citizens."

A brief service preceded the The simple ceremony of interment. body was conveyed to the cemetery in a hearse followed by members of the family in a motor car. A drizzling rain lent a wierd aspect to the strange burial of the great political leader. Few persons witnessed the departure of the cortege fromt the Spruce street home. The grave of the senator is between that of his father and the grave of Katherine Drexel, wife of Dr. Charles B. Penrose. The rigid simplicity observed was in strict accordance with the senator's wishes. Mrs. Essie Keeler and son, Joseph Jenson Keeler will spend the week- end in Salt Lake City with friends.

Without such a newspaper it is impossible to get county news into all sections of Utah county. It is impossible for the merchants of Provo to tell people of other towns in Utah county of their bargains. It is impossible for entertainments in this city to be brought to the attention of residents in other communities. And, vice versa, it is impossible for residents of Provo to learn in advance of entertainments, celebrations, etc., in other cities of the county. With a newspaper published in this county going into all sections of the county all these ends may be accomplished ; and it will help to bring together the people of the county, to work Edward S.
