This will mark the completion of the first hard surfaced road between the two big cities of Utah and should be celebrated in a fitting manner. It wa at Kaysville that road program took concrete form in material as well as a literal sense, and for that reason the celebration should be staged in Davis county. Why not a day of sports at Lagoon, including races on the race course? Lets hear what the people of Salt Lake City and Ogden think about it.

The singing was another delightful feature of the evening's performance. The oration of the occasion was delivered by Elder Bowman of Salt Lake City, after which the congregation journeyed to the grove, which had been made brilliant for the occasion by the stringing of electric lights in the national colors throughout the trees. Here games were enjoyed by young and riTil, while the band played many entertaining selections. The pageant ended very successfully with much credit due to the men and women in charge. It is hoped that others of a like nature will be executed in the near future. 49 BEET GROWERS DEMAND FAIR DEAL FOR SUGAR The beet growers of Spanish Fork neighborhood hsve fallen in line with the argument against discrimination in the matur of beet growers and sugar manufacturers of the region, by the United States government, as presented by The Keflex almut a month ago. Th unfairness of allowing Louisiana and foreign sugar growers to charge a price much higher than that allowed western growers has become apparent to ull thinking people and the beet growers are now coming to the support of the sugar companies. The following shows the action taken by the Spanish Fork growers Saturday. Spanish Fork, July 10, At a meting last night of representative beet growers and business men of thi section in tlie commercial club, the governments case agarnst the Utah-Idah- o Sugar company and its bearing on the future prospects for beet growers was discussed at length. The following consensus of opinion whs adopted m the form of a resolution "Agreat deal of opposition has manifested itself toward and has assumed the appearance of discrimination against home industry in prosecution of Uie Sugar company It has been brought out nt this meeting that the farmers feel that the case again t the sugar company is of a much importance to the grower as to the manufacturer.
