And many Sharon people were there, cold as it was, to be followed, we hope, by many thousands more as this event assumes the Importance It deserves.

Having been transferred to Pleasant Grove by the Utah and Salt Lake railroad, Mr. Christensen resigned this week from the Orem Town board. His resignation was regretfully accepted by the members of the board. Mr. Christensen's services as a member of the Orem Town board have been connected largely with the water system of the town where he has given unbounded service of a most valuable kind, reports Mayor B. M. Jolley. For three years Mr. Christensen hag worked and planned for Orems water system. During that time more than eight miles of new lines have been built, with new HO services connected. Revenues from the water department have Increased more than 12000 a year, and at the same time rates have been reduced, from six cents to two cents per 10,000 gallons over the minimum charge of $1.25 per month, thus allowing large users to obtain water at a cost below any other community In Utah county. The P.W.A. water project for $35,600 was Mr. Christensens biggest plan, but the annexation of Grand View Iso added four miles of water mains to the system. and his idea of placing a two inch water line on the west side of state street saved the Town all the expensive tunnelling under the highway.

The natural beauties of the State are so outstanding that our visitors cannot be misled about them by mars, but our personal contact, with these same visitors is so limited that our personality has little chance to correct the false impression they receive about our attitude toward life and our fellow men. We are not being fair to ourselves when we permit flagrant neglect to speak to our visitors as they travel the highways. Just a little effort on a few feeble fences and a few sick barns will make an entirely different impression on our visitors with respect to our attitude toward life.
