This action was taken by the special committee appointed by President Alf N. Olsen of the local chamber of commerce to arrange the time and work out the details for the celebration. The committee met at the chamber of commerce rooms Wednesday evening, with chairman Hervin Bunder-so- n in charge. It was decided to hold the dedicatory services separate from Box Elders annual Peach Day and rodeo celebration, which comes on September 11th and 12th, but to place it at a time when the boats on Bear River and the bay will be in serviceable condition so that the public can be taken down on the bay to view the improvements already made by the government, which represent an expenditure of approximately 8350,000. At this time of the year the weather will be cool and pleasant and the annoying mosquitoes gone. It is expected . that the Secretary of Agriculture, high officials of the biological .survey, prominent state officials and many others will attend the celebration. At the meeting Wednesday evening, the special committee planned the appointment of an advisory committee to consist of prominent persons thru-othe state, to work out a program that will be fitting to this extremely event. important , ... m well-educat- ut ed to-ris- f Ogden Legion Post Advertises Military half-defeat- ed Spectacle In Town Members of the Herman Baker Post of the Ogden American Legion, accompanied, by tbe fife and drum corps of the organization and a very liberal amount of marched through the streets of Brigham on Wednesday night, advertising the military spectacle, A Night In No Mans Land, a feature of the big Fourth of July celebration to be held in Ogden on Independence Day.

ARE INTERESTING Brigham City, like many ot,her cities throughout the country, is experiencing a shortage of water, due to the extremely dry season. As a consequence, the city officials have found it necessary to take steps to conservo the available supply of water as far as possible. A proclamation has been Issued by Mayor Halverson, which appears in another column in this issue, regulating the lawn sprinkling hours thru-othe city. The time for sprinkling is designated as follows: "All that part of Brigham City lying east of Main street, once daily, between the hours of 6 and 8 a. m. All that part of Brigham City lying west of Main street, once daily, between the hours of 6 and 8 p. m. Steps will be taken by the city to see that these sprinkling regulations are complied with by the citizens. Those having meters do not come under these requirements. i Schedule Is Framed For Competing Teams In League.

On Tuesday. Mr. and Mrs. George Victor, residing on the corner of Fourth South and Fourth West streets in this city, sustained a loss of from $1500 to 32,000 Tuesday evening at 5 oclock, when their dwelling was practically destroyed by fire. Thei flames broke out in the roof of the building, caused either from a spark from the chimney or a defective flu, while Mr. and Mrs. Victor were in the kitchen preparing the evening meal for the family. There was no insurance on the property and the loss would have been much greater had not the neighbors and the members of the local fire department, who responded very quickly to the alarm, carried out most of the furniture and household gbods from the burning building. Due to the hot, dry weather, the flames spread rapidly through the upper part of the building and had gained much headway when the department arrived. What was not destroyed by fire was injured by water. Mr. and Mrs. Victor feel the loss very keenly and their many friends sympathize with them in the destruction of their home. six-roo- m - Court of Honor Will Meet Next Sunday 4 The Scout Court of Honor will be held next Sunday, July 6th at 8 p. m. at Mantua.

ROBERT H. STEWART, . Secretary. - Pioneers Tell About Indian War to Settle Dispute t For Lands OGDEN. Early day white residents of northern Utah were heard Wednesday in the case of the Northwestern Shoshone Indians against the United States. Among those who testified were David Morgan Reese, 84, of Brigham City, veteran interpreter; Frank A. Blair, 78, Richmond; Willard Lowe, 89, Willard; John D. Peters, 79, Brigham City; John F. Merrill, 80, Brigham City. Mr. Reese testified as to a fierce battle between the Utes and the Shoshones, which occurred on the sand ridges southwest of Ogden before the treaty of 1863. This testimony wasi given to aid In establishing the extent of the territory over which the Shoshones claim their ancestors formerly roamed. The battle, Mr. Reese asserted, was over rights to land which both tribes claimed. The battle finally settled the boundary, Mr. Reese added, the Utes remaining south of Weber canyon and the Weber river, and the Shoshones ranging northward as far as the Snake river in Idaho. Virtually all of the witnesses testified to the treaty entered Into between the government and the Indians in 1863. This treaty was signed at Brigham City, and in it the Indians guaranteed safe traveling to whites in return for 35090 a year for twenty years. The Indians assert that only $2000 of the amount was paid to them. - District Commissioner. i Land Companys Suit Is Dismissed At Boise 4 o The case of Land Co., numerous of western citizens against Box Elder county was before the Federal Court at Boise, Idaho, the first part of the week. The action' was brought by the plaintiff to obtain a decree adjudicating the waters of Clear Creek. All of the parties and many of the witnesses were ready for trial when the court sustained the demurrer of the Box Elder citizens and dismissed the case, for want of jurisdiction to adjudicate the waters in Utah. It is quite probable a new suit will be filed In one of the Utah courts. Attorney B. C. Call returned today from Boise. He represented a number of the' Utah citizens in the litigation.

Boy Is Injured While 4 Je In June' Grass ST - Hoopes, fetors. I CELEBRATION noise-maker- THROUGH THE AGES daylight has opened its eyes upon the horrors of war. It has Bhuddered at , the ugliness and cowardice that accompany war, but yet too, it has smiled upon the acts of bravery and mercy that were displayed possibly on the same battlefield. It has de- -. lighted in the manner in which men have defended rights, upheld justice, and corrected wrongs, it has gloried in the way men have loved and honored the flag the symbol of all that they hold best. The flag is the nucleus of a nations life, which is full of that nations life blood and as sensitive to any wrong, that any hurt, even so much as a pin prick causes, a throb of rights that aj . that needs must.be' dressed.- - It is nation defends its flag; and feels justified in going to even the extremity of war for it. The flag of America has been created as a solemn national emblem, containing American ideals and American history. In. the beautiful symbol lie the Constitution and. the government, ' but above all, the principles for which it stands. Liberty is formost. Liberty! The fight for it caused the Revolutionary War. There is nothing so needful as liberty in all the hearts of the American people today. For it is the right to live, to love, and to be happy. Every child should be taught to love the flag, for from this comes our patriotism and a united nation. Without liberty and freedom, our nation would cease to grow for they are something that lead to high ideals. Our flag is the oldest of its kind. Other nations had flags of personal kingdoms, but ours never has been and never will be a personal emblem. For it has been given to us by a people united and courageous. This flag has waved over battle after battle. It has seen the defeated armies of Washington struggle through all the trouble and hardships of that war; and finally waved on high, over a new nation a new people that represented freedom. Henry Beecher said: When a thoughtful person sees a flag, he sees the nation itself, he reads chiefly in the flag, thev government, principles, the truths, and the history, which belong to that nation." And so it is with our flag. Our government1 is an example to all other countries of the world, and our flag is a symbol of that nation.' . Let us preserve all the Ideals that are concealed in our streaming banner. In past years, it had never been raised in conquest of laud Of Power. There is have given their nothing to mar its beauty. Thousands of lives for it, many explorers have perished, the leaders and people have struggled with courage and ability. Less than three hundred years ago, we were a few weak colonies scattered along the eastern coast. From that, we hare grown into a mighty nation of progressive, people. Can the future generations do for that flag what the past generations have done? Shall we ever be able to contribute these things to our flag: Establish world peace, solve the problem of prohibition, can we continue to have a government providing justice for the people? These questions are unanswered and unsolved. How are we going to serve our flag? Woodrow Wilson Bald: The flag expresses the will of a free people, and proclaims that they are supreme, and that they acknowledge no earthly sovereign, but themselves. These United States have grown in power and accomplishments. We have traveled the path of life. In some places, it has been narrow and hazardous. Then we have looked towards our flag with a feeling of loyalty; but now that we have neared the top, do we still turn toward the flag? We should, for it promotes patriotism and will raise the standards of America. his life to Washington thought enough of that flag save his country. Abraham Lincoln thought enough of that flag to fight against all odds to preserve the union, and in the end, to give his life. These are not the only men who have worked to save our flag, but millions are supporting it every day. .That flag soldiers in the Revolutionary War cheered our It shined as a beacon light for Washington, it shone as a 'guiding star for Lincoln, it stood for the path of righteousness for Wilson, and today it shines as an emblem of liberty in all the hearts of the American people. No matter what is to come may Old Glory always be kept flying on high and never be allowed to fall into the dust or be raised in conquest, it is worthy of the noblest support that its honest, humble, Bincere people can give it. Let it remain the symbol of this mighty nation the United States of America! DATE SET FOR - 8-- 9; of America" ut . -- NUMBER 25. Hours for Sprinkling BASEBALL GAMES Lawns Is Designated j a. m.
