Lewis, chairman of the traffic courts committee, Utah Safety council, and Rulon Bennion, Utah Highway patrol, all of Salt Lake City, also spoke briefly. In opening the meeting, Judge Call stated that we cooperate in Box Elder county. He said that in his six years experience not once has an enforcement officer sought an unjust punishment or conviction at the hands of any justice of the peace in Box Elder county, so far as he knew, and the peace justices in attendance at the meeting agreed with his statement. Box Elder Cooperation Speaking in behalf of ail Box Elder justices and law enforcement officers, he continued: Nt once In six years has a cent of public money handled by any peace officer or other official been unaccounted for to my knowledge. Our justices of the peace are men of quality. We believe in creating and maintaining peace by doing justice. We believe that innocence of a defendant up to the time of his conviction or acquittal is not a fiction, and we endeavor to make him feel it without telling him so. We believe that when a defendant comes into court angry and afraid and goes the out angry and resentful, judgment passed upon him is practically a nullity so far as is concorrecting wrong-doincerned. A schedule of "uniform trafwas prefic minimum bails sented, and was discussed thoroughly by all in attendance at the meeting. No change in the schedule was suggested by anyone present, and it was generally agreed that the schedule will serve as a basis for the bails set by the justices of the peace throughout the county. Bail Often Is Fine In practice, the bail set in a case filed in a justice or city court often is the fine imposed. In many cases the defendant is not present or represented and the bail is forfeited. Often if the defendant is present for trial and is found guilty the fine is in the same amount as the bail, although this is not necessarily so and the fine may be in a different amount if, in the opinion of the judge or justice, extenuating circumstances warrant a greater or lesser penalty. The Gang's All There With the exception of some Box Elder justices of the peace some of whom are not active the meeting had 100 percent attendance of all groups concerned. With Rulon Bennion, Salt Lake E. City, inspector, and Lt. T. Hunsaker of the State Highway patrol were all six of the patrolmen who cover the highways in Box Elder county: William C.

Have Yo ur Parents Fill This Permit 1947 the Mantua town board appointed a special Centennial Beautification committee to carry to completion beautification projects already begun and to institute others in cooperation with the Utah Centennial. The personnel of this committee was Clifford Hansen, chairman, with the following members: Martin Rasmussen, Austin Larsen, Ernest Johnson, Norman Jeppsen, Sylvia Hansen, Romina J. Rasmussen, Nellie Larsen, Ruth Johnson and Josie Jeppsen. Mantua is a community of about 300 population consisting of 70 families. The first act of this committee was to make a survey of the entire community, taking a complete inventory of each home and farm to determine just what improvements should and could be accomplished. The posse was organized in 1944 with Glen Reeder as leader. Present officers are Carl Norman, captain: Bob Smoot, first lieutenant; Arel Hansen, second lieutenant and Keith Carter, secretary. Members of their rodeo committee are Dawn Reeder, Neil Harper, Dee Hansen and Phil Rasmusson. Beside appearing at Corinne each year since tneii organization, the Junior Posse have peared twice at the Box Elder county fair at Tremonton. and were invited to take part in the last Pioneer days celebration year at Salt Lake City, and also the state fair. Summer work of the posse consists of drills, an annual ride of some four days duration in the mountains by pack horse, and breaking horses. The county sheriff has met several times with the boys to give them instruction and encouragement. During the winter months the boys work on their equipment and have done considerable leather work, making all of their outfits but the saddles, and stamping and tooling chaps, bridles, breast collars, pocket books, tapaderos and hraiding bullwhips, hackamores and lariats. During the last two winters they have made about $800 worth of leather goods, besides doing all their own repair work. The general chairman of the celebration is Laron G. Anderson. sters who arent quite lucky enough to win one of the big prizes. Prize For Everyone But even if all of those prizes don't quite go around, no one will be disappointed. For in addition to the other prizes, Glens e Modern Drug and the ice cream company are cooperating so that each youngster participating in the Carp Scramble will receive a ticket good or a milk-nickfor either a at Glens Modern Drug store, following immediately the Carp Scramble or any time up to 6 oclock Saturday evening. Winners of the other prizes will receive tickets for the treats as well as the youngsters who dont win other prizes, Collins that no said. "We promise youngster will be disapjioinled. In Two Pools will be conThe Scramble ducted for two age groups, and each group will have a separate pool filled with fish for them to catch, and a separate selection of prizes. It will be arranged so that even children of age will have a fair chance at catching their share of the fish and winning their share of the prizes, the (Continued on Page Eight) The committee then divided the town into several districts with two members of the comdismittee assigned to each trict. These two members then canvass made a of their district to solicit the support and cooperation of each family in the beautification project. A mimeographed sheet had been prepared listing all desirable and necessary types of improvements and repairs necessary to beautify and improve the home and farm. Each family went over this copy with the committee members and checked those things they were willing to do to cooperate in the program. house-to-hous- e The committee next procured r well over 1300 gallons of paint suitable for use on barns and old This was obtained from the U. S. A. C., for the cost of delivery. In addition individual community members have purchased about 200 gallons of oil paint. The Mantua municipal corporation gave its support in every possible way. Community projects undertaken and completed were the building of a new reservoir for the culinary water system; the erection of over a mile of new electric line; a new dumping obtaining grounds for rubbish, located in an out of the way place but still easily accessible; and the construction of a new and better approach to the cemetery. The town board and committee also obtained the use of the county bull dozer for the removal of dveased and dead trees. This was available to the citizens and was used for approximately three weeks. The county school board also the cooperated in beautifying school grounds. This project has not as yet been carried to comin pletion due to difficulties getting plans drawn up and approved, but is still going forward. Some of the individual projects are also still in the process of completion but are being carried out as fast as time and materials will permit, and the committee will still function during the remainder of the year. The total of part of these individual projects include: Painting of approximately 50 farm buildings; 262 square yards of concrete sidewalks laid; the planting of 104 trees and 264 shrubs; 127 square rods of lawn planted and the building new front of about a dozen fences and the painting of several others. There has been a total of about 1,631 hours spent up by individuals in cleaning their yards and corrals. The town store has been completely redecorated, inside and out, at a cost of about $700 to its owner. As a climax to the project Mantua now is going forward with plans for a town celebration and homecoming to be held June 28 and Youngsters 15 years old and younger who wilt participate in the Jaycees' Carp Scramble Saturday, today were asked by the committee arranging the event to clip this permit form and have one of their parents or guardian fill it in and sign it The filled-ipermit must be turned in to managers of the Scramble before the child will be permitted to participate. "Every effort will be made to protect the safety of the youngsters taking part, Lester Collins, Carp Scramble chairman, assorted, but for the one event it is impractical to take out liability insurance, and the Junior Chamber does not wish to be responsible should some mis- hap occur. In addition to the entire membership of the Junior Chamber, the Brigham City fire department and the Brigham City police department will be on hand to help supervise the event and look after the safety The state highway patrol also will assist in rerouting traffic so there will be no danger from passing motor vehicles. It was explained that the ponds for the fishing will be formed by damming the gutters and the street between Central school and the stake tabernacle, and running water into the ponds thus formed. Consequently, the deepest part of the pond will be at the gutter, where the water can be no higher than the curb, and the water farther up onto the street will be a little more than ankle deep. The water will be no deeper than it is in the smallest irrigation ditches along the streets in town, and the kids will be just as safe as they are playing in those which they do, ail over town, all the time, Collins said. The permit, which parents are asked to fill out and send to the Carp Scramble with their children, is presented here. of the young participants.
