Show i vy vl k VOL. 6. S ALINA, Boarl Umbers ire The health films which are being shown the public and all students of the schools of Sevier county by Jas. H. Wallis, secretary of the Utah Public Health association, and M. S. Parker, field manager, were warmly received in every town and city in the county. The pictures were shown in Salina Monday afternoon and evening. At four oclock in the afternoon the Opera house was filled to capacity with school children. The pictures were shown at the high school auditorium at 8 oclock at night to the adults. Both exhibitions were splendid and throughout both Mr. Wallis and Mr. Parker held the attention of all with lectures, explaining minutely the details of the different features of the health pitctures. The Tournament of Youth, dealing with the necessity of proper quarantining of contagious diseases, and the value of the Modern Health Crusade in the schools, in teaching proper health habits to the children was shown and explained. The Value of Sound Teeth, and the Fly as a Disease Carrier, were among the interesting features of the pictures. The illustrations and lectures, tocuh-in- g upon the dread fly was vividly impressed upon the young folks at the afternoon lecture and exhibition. The fly, Mr. Wallis told his hearers, was one of the most dreaded of all insects or disease sperading elements. The point was strongly brought out how the , little disease spreader carried vermin and filth from filth to the foods on the table and how they carried sickness. Mr. Wallis urged the cooperation of all school children with the adults, to make war on the fly early and by doing so the danger would be held to the minimum. At eight oclock Monday night the pictures were seen by many of citizens. The auditorium at the high school was comfortably filled and the pictures and lectures given by Messrs. Wallis and Parker were highly' enjoyed. Fighting for Dear Life was the feature picture during the evening. This picture emphasizes the importance of annual health examinations. It shows the importance and value of annual health examinations, and depicts in a very interesting manner the care we give all kinds of machinery, to see that every part is in working order, but how little attention was given to the human body machinery, the most delicate piece of mechanism. Early Monday afternoon the pictures were shown at Redmond and at 3 oclock they were given at Aurora. At both places interesting crowds saw the exhibitions. It is estimated that nearly 5000 adults and school students throughout Sevier county saw the pictures during the week and so impressed was A. J. Ashman, county superintendent of schools, that he addressed the following to Mr. Wallis. Sa-lin- as UTAH, FRIDAY, MARCH 14, 1924. No. Prominent Stockman What Are the Wild Waves. Saving?

It was the occasion of the visit of the school board, comprising Messrs. Hayes, Jones, Oldroyd, Day, Jorgensen and Clerk Cope, and Superintendent A. J.

He strongly advises and urges every southeastern Utah cattleman to join the association. The dues are nominal, amounting to only one cent for each head of stock owned. The proper method of, affiliating with the state association is to form a local stockmens association, which would then become a member of the state body by paying ing the dues. Mr. Scorup is anxious to see the Moab and Grand county cattlemen get together at an early date and form an association. The entire state is being lined up and he hopes to see southeastern Utah represented strong in the big association. Discussing the program before the association and what it hoios to accomplish, Mr. Scorup said: We are confronted by conditions which make it imperative at this time for cattlemen to organize more closely to protect our industry; in every phase of our business we find organizations which we have to meet. We have three big issues before us and it will require close cooperation to meet them successfully, viz: Taxation, increased grazing fees and marketing cattle. A reduction of $8 per head has been secured in the assessed valuation of cattle since 1922. The valuation for 1924 is $17 per head. There is now a fight before the state board of equalization and it will require the united effort of every cattleman to maintain our position. The sheepmen are making a big fight to have The tax their valuation reduced. valuation of range land is too high and it will require a good deal of hard woik to have the valuations placed where they should be. All are aware that the forest service people contemplate raising the fees; we are working as a state association, also through the national, to protect permittees against unjust raises in grazing rates. As a delegate to the convention of the American national association, I helped put over a resolution limiting the grazing fee to cost of administration. We have already received a postponement f one year, but the fight is on and must be gone through with. We now have before us the California cooperative plan for marketing cattle, which contemplates making one complete association taking in four states California, Utah, Nevada and Atizona. We' feel sure this is one of the most cot struclive and comprehensive plans ever presented to cattlemen and will do more to furnish a stable market for all our cattle than any other plan ever advanced. The government is cooperating with this association in sending out men to instruct cattlemen in garding cattle accoiding to U. S. grades (standard). It will likely be necessary to send representatives to Washington to protect our right on the forests; if we come into the four-stat- e maiketing association above mentioned, we must -- I Vet BripiitFs Gunnison, where the Black Hawk Indian war raged from 1865 to 1872, inclusive, has been definitely named as the headquarters for the National division of the Indian War Veterans for Utah. This announcement was officially made yesterday by H. A. Kearns, who with other comrades, has worked diligently and unceasingly for many months past to have Utah headquarters located in this city. In addition to having the headquarters here, Mr. Kearns has been honored and has been named state commander and William Bardsley, local commander. While it is true the Indian War veterans of Utah have been well organized and managed by efficient officers, recently a move has been started to which is intended for the advantage that comes within the extended union, that all Utah veterans joins the National Indian War veterans. This movement, it Is explained, will in no way displace or disarrange the state organization, but will add strength to both the state and national organizations. The naming of Gunnison as Utah headquarters means much to the city and every individual and Civic aid possible should be given the veterans. Kvery veteran in the valley is highly enthused over the victory and all are looking forward to the success of the organization and the future activities here. Steps will be taken at once to arrange for future reunions and with the gathering of veterans from all over the state and the adjoining states, it means much to the entire community, and this is why every American should get back and help the veterans in their efforts to make Gunnison famed for its ability to entertain. Too much cannot be done for those who braved the Indian wars of early days and made it possible for opening the big west by subduing the InReflect credit to the dian wariiors. men who, during the pioneer conditions of our fair state, made the sacrifice necessary to lay the foundation upon which it has been possible for those who followed to establish comfortable homes, schools, churches and freedom. To measure the indebtedness we all owe for those who blazed the trails and routed the .redskin to comprehend is too far reaching and to back the veterans in their movements will but add little to the debt we owe. To bring the matter more closely at home it is stated that there are a number of unmarked graves in our little cemetery. These soldiers made the supreme sacrfice that we might live in peace and enjoy prosperity in homes of comfort.
