Mr. F. L. (Les) Maxwell, who recently moved with his family from Duchesne to Salt Lake, resigned his position on the Duchesne school board effective May 1st. The school board is meeting on May 3rd to appoint a successor, but at the time of our going to press no word of the successor was available. Mr. Rulon J. Larsen of Duchesne has received quite strong support for the appointment. Drive For Clothing For Devastated Areas In Europe Still Going A drive is still on for clothing to be given to those who have been made1 destitute by the ravages of the European war. Chester Lyman of the Duchesne Legion is receiving the clothing. We realize that there are a great many requests made of us at this time, but the things we are asked to do are not nearly as difficult as is required of many Europeans, iwho have been rendered homeless and destitute by the ravages of a war brought on by the Nazis. Anyone having clothing which they will donate may give it to the mailman on their route, and he will bring it in to Mr. Lyman, who will see that it is properly packed and sent to the proper center for use by the destitute in Europe, Now, folks, get out that old dress and the old suit that you have discarded, fix them up and send them on to those who are in real need of them. Altamont Seminary Graduating Class Visits The Salt Lake Temple A group of Altamont Seminary graduating students left Friday afternoon en route to Salt Lake City, where on Saturday morning they performed baptismal work in the Salt Lake temple. e The group stayed at the hotel. While in Salt Lake they visited the following places: Deseret News Press, the Temple square, University of Utah, tabernacle broadcast on Sunday morning, Cathedral of the Madeline, police station and city Jail, airport, and the training school at American Fork. It was late Sunday evening when the group returned home, and anyone could have noticed that on Monday morning the graduates were half asleep in their classes. The excursion was in charge of Bishop Walter Kerksiek, Mac Burton, Bovee Mecham and New-hous- Lin-wo- Kcnison. Herbert Lang of Utahn Returns From Hospital After Being Injured Mr. Herbert Lang of Utahn, who was injured some time ago by his truck, which he had left in gear when he cranked it, has returned to his home.
