MAY BE FUTURE OF QUEEN ENGLAND Although there was no aession of the high school Saturday, Hugh W. Peterson, assistant principal of the Provo high was downtown at an unusual early hour Saturday morning. His face was all wreathed with smiles and it seemed Impossible for him to keep his usual stern demeanor. To friends who inquired as to the smile Mr. Peterson confided he was looking for the census taker, atating that the population of tha steel city had been increased and that he was anxious to have It show upon the census report. Yes, and he also said it was just what he wanted, a big boy. Mother and son are doing nicely and the attending physician gives the encouraging report that with proper care Mr. Peterson will speedily recover from his "son stroke."

Pier-ponof the Chamber of Commerce, to a representative of the loan ball committee today. This also is the sentiment of the business men's clubs of Provo. From all reports, the institution of a loan fund for needy students is rapidly gaining support and will undoubtedly be successful. A number of townspeople and students are already wearing the white and blue badges that are on sale by the boosters of the university. The purpose of the badge Is to signify a booster and admits the wearer to the student loan fund ball next Friday evening at the (Ladies' gym.' The different classes of the B. Y. U. are competing to determine who can dispose of the most badges. The class winning the contest selects the queen of the loan fund bail. The following girls are the prospective queens: Senior, Hazel Noble; junior, Alice Taylor; sophomore, Alberta Huish; , freshman, Margaret Pierpont. t, , 5 '"Utah county haR a chance to get into the closest business contact with Los Angeles if this county will try," said Preston G. Peterson, member of the ptate road commission, who returned last evening from Los Angeles where he attended the 'Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce conference. "A million people of southern California are anxious to tend their money into this state for products we can raise here," Mr. Peterson added. "Los Angeles needs fruits, dairy products, eggs and poultry, vegetables, and other things we can produce here in great abundance, but we must compete with northern coast farmers, and we must send first class stuff to Los Angeles. Our fruit must be carefully picked and packed; our eggs and poultry must be the best; our vegetables must be as good as can grow. Los Angeles will pay top prices for the best. Utah county can produce the finest of these; and to get the highest prices' we must attend to all the de tails of picking and packing just as other districts do these things." Mr. Peterson said that he had been assured by Los Angeles financiers that all money the steel merger people will need to finance their merger can be raised on the coast without resort to New York banks. 0 1 miv e 440-yar- The largest sailing ship afloat Is under the French flag, commanded by The liner.

A. & S. L. railroad Saturday. This followed the other reductions in the working force here. Within a comparatively short time the local shops have cut the force from 250 men to 87 men, which is barely enough to keep the shop going at its lowest ebb. .. Ten of tbe men Saturday night were transferred to other shops, most of them going to Los Vegas. ' , Edgar i.McArthur Thursday asked the Provo Kiwanis club to Investigate the reduction of shop forces here and to report to tbe club and citizens of ' Provo. Thomas F. Pierpont, Edgar and Alex Hedquist were to have appeared before railroad officials -, in Salt Lake City today to ask for an explanation and as to the future ,program of railroad work here, This committee postponed Its trip to Salt Lake when It was learned last evening that the railroad officials would not be In Salt Lake City today.
