The street is well graded on both sides of the concrete and with care will always be a fine roadway, Now let us clean up at least three blocks through the business portion of our rity and put all the structures in good repair and in presentable con dition or tear them down. Perhaps, the only way to bring about the condition would be for the propowners of these three blocks to erty meet with the street comtnittee of the city council and confer as to the meth od of bringing about this improve ment. Kaysville can eaaily be made the ..cleanest little city on the State road between Salt Lake and Ogden along the roadway at least. Let us exact the comptiment of being and clean from thousands of peomotor through our city each who ple month. LETTS de-air- ed . up-to-da- te X 1 HELPING WESTERN INDUSTRIES 'Fruit juice manufacture has developed into a large industry in the west. After hearing the argument of the producers, the house votes to make a sharp reduction in the war tax on 'this product, which was severely ; handicapping this industry. It also voted to eliminate the ten per cent tax n soda water and ice cream. The question of removing the five , per-erExcise tax on Candy is also of great interest to the western states. Candy manufacturing which is grow ing with the development of the sugar beet industry is unjustly burdened by this discriminatory tax which should bo eliminated along with such taxes as the above. Cungrei.s wiH undoubtedly take favorable action along these lines soon. nt X f 1 t did their parents. I believe in boys being boys. I do not believe that we can put old heads on young shoulders, nor would I do so if it were possible, However, we should not be blind to the short comings of many of our young men, and I am sorry to say, older and sometimes married men. 1 refer more especially to the spirit and practice of gambling which has became quite prevalent in our midst. I 'am Informed on what I consider good authority, and in fact I have some personal knowledge in the matter, that poker playing and crap shooting have become quite common in our midst If this vice, for vice it is, was indulged in only at rare Intervals, or. If the stakes were small, the practice would not be considered so bad by many of our people. But the fact is, that the practice is indulged in almost daily, especially at night, and t is said regular rendevous are at times maintained for play. Considerable sums of money have already been ost by youthful players and the gambling habit is becoming strong with many of the votaries of gaming. Only as a last resort do I believe in invoking the law in this matter, but I do believe our peace officers can be a great factor in curbing or stamping out the vice. I also believe that we as a people can and should do something to put a stop to the conditions complained of and I am in accord with the object of the meeting to be held in Lay-to- n tonight. If we must spend money to hold (fato our boys and girjs lets spend it to the utmost. They are more to us than money. They are flesh of our flesh, blood of our blood, and bone of our bone. If we have to have swimming pools to keep our boys and girls from associating with semi-nud- e women and brazen men, lets build them. If we must build amusement halls and good dancing floors to keep our young people at home let's do it. If we must furnish more and better amusement features for our young men, lets do It. In short, let's do something to teach The youth of our county that they cannot afford to indulge in vice or near-vic- e and if we fail by auch measures, let the law take Its course without fear or favor. We older men and women cannot afford to sit idly by, see our boys slip, ping into the paths of vice, our girls associate unattended with the rabble of the cities on the public resort dance floors and in swimming-pools- , and then excuse ourselves by saying It is none of our business. It is our buai-neand if we do not attend to this up-to-d- UNO (Salt Lake, Davis and Weber bounties) at r d n auirqay u 9 This year will witness the completion of the state highway which will bind with steel and concrete three great counties of the state.

In addition to the many regular amusements and the restful beauty which Lagoon offers at all times the day will witness the culmination of Kings Venetian Water Carnival.
