On the Horizon With an eye to the potentialities of Utahs postwar future, the way is just which by a tour of around the corner 91 89 and by state highways publicity men revealed that certain cities and towns are doing a fine preliminary job of preparing to meet the great tourist caravan soon to appear on the horizon, to either spend a few profitable days in Utah or to rush through the state enroute to other places where their patronage will be appreciated. Several worthy examples were cited, among them being St. George. This citys newly painted store fronts, curb and gutter painted installations, nicely houses, green lawns, clean cafes and good service; modern auto motels, fine museum and above all, a hustle and bustle spirit that means life and progress marked St. George as a place ready for the nation's greatest era the after-wa- r period just ahead. Acting the part of postwar tourists, the publicity men quickly discovered the things that nauseate and disgust the afterwar visitor: Stinking rest rooms, cafes swarming with houseflies, in lazy indifferent waitresses dirty uniforms; early edition outdoor tourist camps with plumbing and smelly bed clothes. A tip to the wise should be sufficient. The coming guests have demand the money, they will best in accommodations. They are highly impressionable. To in the imanyone interested mediate and future welfare of Utah, a visit to St. George is recommended as a tonic. GIs Get Utah Literature The Kearns Service Club, in cooperation with the Stated Department of Publicity and Industrial Development to date has distributed 14,000 Utah pamphlets and 2000 state maps to GIs passing through the separation center.

She wishes to meet all who are interested in remodeling and redecora'dng their Salt Lake Orchestra ' Presents Fine Program At Bit. Emmons Sunday One of the most pleasing and artistic programs ever presented in the Basin was given last Sunday evening by the Burton Ward Sunday School Orchestra of Salt Lake City to a crowded house in the Mt. Emmons ward chapel. The orchestra was under the direction of Melba Lindsay Burton, one of the well known Lindsay sisters, who have been giving musical programs over the radio and at other places in Salt Lake for several years. The orchestra was composed mostly of young people who are members of the Burton ward Sunday School, with a few outstanding soloists, and for a group of that kind they gave a most finished performance. It was a well balanced program and contained many of the inspiring numbers for which the Lindsay sisters are so well known and appreciated. One of the outstanding numbers was The Holy City, sung as a duet by Lenore and Siegfried Nitsch and accompanied by the orchestra. Melba Lindsay Burtons numbers shows that she is gaining, if that is possible, more skill and ability as the years go on, she also has a graciousness and charm as a director which added much to the beauty of the entertainment. Relatives of the young folks in the orchestra accompanied them on their trip, as did their Sunday School .superintendency. An item which caused additional interest in the entertainment was the fact that some of the members of the orchestra and other personnel of the group formerly lived in this neighborhood. Mr. and Mrs. Lamond Lloyd and children were residents of Upalco, and the J. A. Fortie family lived in Mt. Emmons. Both families were prominent in church and social activities and Mr. Fortie taught music in the high school. Miss Phyllis Fortie and the daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd were in the orchestra. During the concert Mrs. Lloyd gave a reading and Mr. Fortie and his daughters sang a request number. The Burtons, who were well represented in the orchestra and also in the ward which bears their name, are relatives of the Burtons of Talmage. It was to the Burton ward that the late Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Burton moved when they left Talmake. - Quiet minds can not be perplexed or frightened, but go on in fortune or misfortune at their own private pace, like a clock during a thunderstorm.

Proclamation by President Truman of the week beginning July 22 as "National Farm Safety Week is Just one more reminder that food comes first that the strength of America literally springs from the soil. Despite shortages or manpower, machinery, fuel, transportation and the rest, farmers raised production during the war to unprecedented levels. In each of the war years it has been higher than in any previous year in the nations history. Farmers and food manufacturers together supplied tfie equivalent of 186,000.000.000 meals in 1944. Civilians got 13!) billion of these meals, the armed forces took 28 billion, , 8 billion went to and 11 billion for war stockpiles, liberated people and good neighbors. The 1939 food production ot this country represented 143 billion meals. The increase tn 1944 amounted to 43 billion meals, enougb to feed the entire population of France for one year. Close cooperation and harmony between farmer and food manufacturer made this remarkable record possible. Uncle Sam is counting on a continuation of this harmonious teamwork to hasten Total Victory. lend-lease- - hus-oan- Arnold Deloy Allred Of Altonah Dies By Fall From Horse Thomas G.
