Wonderlands of America. Mr. Robinson currently has been publicizing Emery Countys San Rafael. We found the article very interesting,, and herewith thank Mr. Robinson for contributing it. Editor.) I read an article in the Progress of one of the more recent issues concerning names. The article was by Marcella Gunder son. It was very interesting and attracted my interest and attention. There are some reasonable names, linking its fitness to the idea. For instance, and for example, the name Progress links the idea of your paper with its fitness. Yet there are names similar in sound, but how various and contrary'are the thoughts these similar names produce: For a great roomy dwelling. How fitting is The House, ' Is there a like propriety In the small sound of Mouse? A Mountain by majesty Its mighty name won, But how about Fountain Flowing silver in the sun? And various are the names of men, drawn from different wells: aspects of body, characters of mind, dignities of office, kind of trade: like Smith". Maybe there were more different s, kinds of smiths like etc., when surnames were first started than there were professions. Of course we have people named Farmer, after the .noble profession. Maybe many surnames were given to the family from the fathers first name: From the fathers name of Jon or John came many Johnsons and Jones. One of my own most noble ancestors must have had the name of Robin, that gave me the name of Robinson. He must have been a gay old boy, for a robin is a small sylvine bird, Erythacus rubecule, common in England and most of Europe. Then I looked at its plum age: it is olive brown above, with a breast of reddish. orange, fading to gray beneath. And I wonder if my ancestor was giv en the pame of Robin because he could sing, or because he flit ted from place to place,-o- r because he knew how to coo and sing to a she robin, or did he have red hair on his breast? Now I cant sing or make love, but I do have red hair on my chest. Maybe thats the answer. Anyway, Mrs Gunderson has a very interesting hobby in the gathering of names, whether she ever tries to study the oriblack-smith- s, silver-smith- gin. . in attendance at the Old Folks Party Saturday night, of that number there were the following over 80 years of age: Flora Davis, Thomas Davis, Ellen Anderson and Holyer Nelson. Those over 70 years of age were: Jtlice Larson, Emma Johnson, John J. Thorderson, Ruth Nelson, Mr and Mrs Oliver Jensen, Joseph J. Larsen, Agnes Potter, J. M. HanSen, Harriet Eden, Wm. T. Litster, Carl Larsen, Rose McDaniel and Zina Cowley. There were 24 over oo years of age making a total of 42 honored guests. A delicious banquet was served followed by a program and old time dancing.

One point everyone at the meet agreed upon, reports Mr Humphrey, is this: No one un demands very much about the control of this weed, but its control Is imperative else the livestock industry is doomed. A cardinal feature of the pro jected campaign is to acquaint the public generally with the plant. Specimens are being pre pared and will be exhibited in .,i Clay Petersen joined another group of teachers from Emery County and attended a teacher convention at St. George last eek. Mr and Mrs Oscar Carlson and two young daughters visited relatives in Salt Lake over the week end. Out of town visitors during the pheasant season were Don C.

Berlyle Anderson, who is em ployed in Salt Lake, visited home folks over the week end. Her little nephew, Craig Johnson, accompanied her. Mrs Eunice Chatwin of Salt Lake, a former resident of Cleveland, visited relatives and friends here for a few days last In traveling I gather some peculiar names of firms and peoand for example, in New England I found a firm name after the men who started it: It was the firm of Neal and Pray. But after investigating each man I found both to be anything but religiously inclined. Yet another firm ple. For instance named Robb and Steel were both found to be honorable characters, quite as much as were Wright and Justice, their competitors. In Mississippi I found a man named Benjam in Bird, who married a girl named Julia Chaff. Could we judge from the names that the wheat had been sep arated from the chaff, and thpt the old bird got the chaff that was coming to him for marrying a girl? But that was so much different from the happy marriage of Jimmy Virtue, age 21, to Susan Vice, age 17, who were both Sunday School teachers and had met at a Sunday School ralley. An account that I read in a South Carolina newspaper said that John Makepeace had been arrested for inciting a riot. Does that make us think that more dependence should be put in a man for his acts than in his name? Yet if I should name any organization that I was interested in, I would strive to make it appropriate, again linking the fitness with the idea, like the name of your newspaper, the Progress. If a man has been given a good name by his parents, he should try and live up to what they thought of him when they named him. A man by the name of Parson Playfair was arrest ed at a cotton gin down in Texas by a deputy sheriff 'because he was accused of stealing cards from the bottom of the deck at a noon-tim- e poker game. Then in Kentucky, one of the most successful business firms was Poor and Proud. But I believe that tops was reached in fitting names when a man by the name of I. Cheatum hired a man for his used car lot by the name of U. Ketchem. The name of the used car firm became known to run true to its name of U. Ketchem and I. ld sixty-year-o- Cheatem. , , Well, I just thought I would send you '& few thoughts that I get from your progressive newspaper, nie Progress, as I was passing thru. I am determined to see some of those places of Emery County that you have been running pictures of over a series of several weeks. Mr. Hunter, your druggist, I believe, hunted them out. How appropriate is his name in hunting out the most inspiring scenes of The Goblins. He is a real Mr Hunter when he searches out photos showing that Emery Co. has more interesting and spectacular scenes than any other spot on the face of this great globe. Emery County is truly a Wonderland.
