Block's officials expressed deep appreciation to W. Vosoo Call, Brigham City business man, for constructing the new building and making it available to them. All departments, have been enlarged and improved with top name brands in mens and boys clothing. all-gla- n d d Brigham City and Nate Block said. vicinity, with a diagonal front to make the entire store visible from the sidewalk, it Is completely departmentalized, well lighted and offers the customer easy access to all merchandise, "We hope It is the beginning of a modernizing trend in Brigham City, Mr, Block said. Mr. Block, who started his first mens store in Pocatello, Idaho in' 1917, pointed out that the strength of the Blocks stores is secure, train and keep the top men, who are given added incentive for progression by investing in company stock. "Also it is our policy to make each store and the personnel who operate them integral parts of the community with deep roots in civic life, Block said., He pointed out this is true of the men who operate Blocks here. Charles Keller, who has been with the firm for 16 and one-hal- f years, is a member of the Brigham City First LDS ward. He has been in the Brigham City store for four years and prior to thfit was at the Pocatello store. Both he and his wife, the former LUda Weaver, are natives of Preston, Idaho. They have three children, Charles Jr., Bruce and Richard. Jarvis Koford, known much belter as Pete is a native of Brigham City and has a long background of mens clothing sales.

CORINNE My apologies to two very nice women who took my mistake in this column last week in their stride and laughed about it with me. I guess that is true friendship. I had meant to tell you all that Margaret was Anderson and not Evelyn the new Relief Society counselor and to congratulate Margaret on a birthday as Evelyns is a few weeks off yet. I guess as long as I kept it in the family it was permissible, anyway. Now I feel better that I have made it correct and I still wish Margaret lots of success Just as all her friends do. Corinne has been a busy place this week. I guess everyone is crowding in all the activity possible before school when we all have to settle down a bit more. Mr. and Mrs. Lyle Walker are leaving this week for a trip into Yellowstone park and speaking of the park I am reminded of something Mrs. Reta Redelings said after they had returned from their vacation there. She said: "I think it is simply marvelous that the arrangements in the park have been 60 set up as to accomodate all the thousands of people there. It is amazing to me how everyone is cared After I thought that over for. I couldnt help but agree. Something else we discussed too, was interesting. How our troubles seem to slip from us and the quiet and the grandeur of nature settle our nerves, calms our tension and we regain something we have, lost in this hurry, hurry of everyday living and too, how everyone seems equal no one pushing and shoving for extra attention or a little more wealth and power. Yes, Its a grand thing to be able to shed our worries and head north, or south, or someplace to relax and be ourselves. Its great to be an American! Mrs. Reta Redelings, by the way, is now on a short trip to California. Another gVoup of Corinne people, Mrs. Jim Bunting (Martha Jean Smoot) Miss Alene Smoot and Miss Donna Rader are perhaps by now in Pittsburgh, Pa. They drove back and- planned to see and do a lot on the way. Sounds like it would be quite Hn interesting journey. Mrs. Jesse Wulf and daugh- A. Barnes watched hts house on Drift Creek northeast of Salem burn to the ground, aided and abetted by the Stlverton volunteer fire1 department. Barnes bought 'the property and wanted the old house burned down so he could build a new one. He cal led the fire department and they arranged to take advantage of the blaze to get in a little live drill. All the neighbors gathered for the "house warming and saw the flames raze the place while firemen kept , if from spreading to other property. Copper On Force BUFFALO, N. V. (UP) Larue H. V.
