"A great lasting monument should be erected to the memory of all who took prt in the constructive work of the state," Prof. Young said. "The Indian War Veterans played their part well." The speaker commended the pioneer element not only of the state, but of the entire west "The world needs the courage, faith, integrity and loyalty to humanity or the pioneers," Mr. Young said. "The more I study the lieves of the pioneers, their type of manhood, the more I am convinced that we do not overestimate their true worth when we pay them tribute." The speaker referred to the economic and social development of Utah, and in this, the Mormon pioneers have a great story to tell, he Bald. He gave the testimony of Dr. Turner of Harvard in which recognition was made of the development of this desert. "The pioneers worked out a destiny " that is an honor to America," Prof. Young said, asserting that e never thrilled over the history of Utah until at Harvard he was assigned the study of the vard when he was assigned the study of the pioneer leader, Brigham Young, and later at Columbia university when he was assigned the study of the economical and social development of Utah, under Brigham Young's ' leadership. The speaker quoted from prominent and explorers who passed on this land as "worthless," trail-breake- "im- possible," "can never become more than a little settlement In the wilderness." He interpreted the words of Brigham Young when he uttered, "This is the place." "Four thousand people pushed or across the plains pulled hand-cart- s and this is the greatest economic movement in the history of the United States," the speaker said. Prof. Young urged a movement for PARKINSON OFFER REACHES the erection of a monument to the "The members of the Mormon Battalion, exeat in ideal ism, stand out as the cleanest type of military men because they came from religious homes. This stamps them as the most truly type of American sol diers. The monument should be the work of an American artist "A beautiful building of marble of granite should be erected to the memory of the Indian War Veterans. Among the contents of the building should be a master picture by a Utah artist, such as Cyrus Dallin. The type of bravery, their experiences and hardships should be portrayed and their works perpetuated. "The pioneers should be remembered. Their relics, books, art and above all, the spirit of the people should be preserved. The dominant figure should be the pioneer mother. She faced the problems unflinchingly and with faith." One of the most important points emphasized by Prof. Young was that in recording the history of the pioneers, the human element should dominate. "True, dates are essential " he said, "but the trials, sorrows, tribulations and daily lives of the pioneers and the spirit which actuated them should be given emphasis." Mrs. Hannah C. Packard rendered a vocal selection, "Spring." Miss Myrtle 'Jensen gave an interesting reading, "All Is Well," accompanied on the organ by Mrs. Leona M. Van Wagenen. The reading was composed by Mrs. Susa Young Gates and very strikingly typified pioneer life. The last speaker was Mrs. Flora Bean Home of Salt Lake City, who encouraged the members of the organ-idatioto get the personal touches to their historical sketches. She urged them to encourage the pioneers to tell the splendid and wonderful stories that should be recorded. Mrs. Horne invited all to visit the pioneer relic hall at the state capltol. The benediction was pronounced by Mrs. Elizabeth A. Heyward. Mormon Battalion. n LINCOLN SENIOR CARNIVAL.

"Provo needs a Btrong, active, efficient, productive Chamber of Commerce, but it can have such an organization only it all the business men of this city support it with their brains and money," said President Pierpont told of Cunningham Secretary achievements of the past year, the first of the organization's career. President Pierpont outlined future work which must be done if the city is to make progress, but he insisted that little would be accomplished if the business interests of the city displayed no greater concern during the coming twelve months than they have the past year. Rotarlans were reminded that this evening the annual spring ball of the Provo Rotary club is to be held in the . armory. The club toted to empower its president to designate ten members to attend future forum meetings of the Chamber of Commerce.
