A RECORD WAS MADE this week when eighteen young men, most of them under 18 years, were sent to Boys State under the sponsorship of Basin Post No. 64, with the cooperation of Roosevelt business establishments, indiI have not seen records of viduals and organizations other posts as to the number of entries in the popular week of training ir American government for young men, but I feel confident that no other Legion post in the state can equal the record, this year, of the Roosevelt unit. . . Too much praise can not be directed to those responsible for giving 18 young high school men a chance to live with nearly four hundred other yonng men, and learn of those things that make American Democracy click.

TRAGEDY STRIKES AGAIN For the second time r a Ballard in a family has lost a son from period, drowning in irrigation streams. Last year Devon Ross, old son of Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Ross, of Ballard, was drowned in Montez Creek, and Monday, Larry, who is 16, drowned in the Uinta River near Wings Store at Fort Duchesne. Both boys were swimming when the tragedies occured. I realize kids like to swim, and perhaps parents should take a little more time to see that their children are taken to safe places to swim. We all regret the sadness that has come into the Ross family home, and offer sincere sympathy to them in this dark hour. . , Maybe we all should let this tragic ending of a fine young boy make us more alert to the danger that lurks in rivers and canals, where too many of our youngsters go to swim. two-yea- ar DOLLAR VALUE If you today, just try dont think the dollar ter is collect some that are 30 Many Features For UBIC Ladies Dept.

Bailey (of Denver) drove up to a bridge blocked by a damaged vehicle. In the ravine 40 feet below was a wrecked automobile with two injured, screaming children inside. Their mother and father had been flung clear of the car and severely hurt. Bailey first set out flares to warn traffic. Then sent the kids to a hospital via a passing motorist. Next he arranged for an ambulance for their parents. By refusing to allow the mother to be moved pending arrival of medical aid, he undoubtedly saved her life, since it was later discovered her back was broken. All four are alive and well today because an alert truck driver knew what to do! The dramatic rescue, plus his safety record (1,150,000 miles without a chargeable accident!) won Bailey the trucking industrys coveted Driver of the Year award. 13-ye- ar Professional drivers are trained to guard your life.
