Again he catches the sound, and It Is most attractive because It plainly Indicates to him the presence of bees and thick lajlrs of honey, the Telephone Review reports.

The hear having never seen a beehive in such a peculiar place does not know what he thinks Is a nest for bees is merely a telephone pole. He proceeds to climb the pole until he comes to the cross-piece- . To the first of these he clings and listens, with the buzing sound In his ears. But there is no sign of a bee. After a bit the bear gently hits the glistening bulbs, but the blow is hard enough to shatter the glass and to cause a short circuit.

Kirkham, chief scout executive of the Salt Lake Council of Boy Scouts, appealed to Salt Lake Post No. 2, the American Legion, for support in organizing scout troops among boys who were not affiliated with any churches, the post unanimously voted to undertake the organization of two troops in the city. Mr. Kirkham s appeal was made in response to the local posts request for suggestions as to the most concrete, constructive, worthwhile civic betterment project which it might carry out for this year. So strongly was the appeal put and so urgent the apparent need for immediate action that thfe post decided to get to work on it at once and not wait for other suggestions which might be made during Community 12 to 22, Service Week, February which is being sponsored by the Utah Legionaires. The post will organize tie troops and furnish their leaders and. if found necessary, will turn their duJib rooms over to them for a meeting ptice. On-l- y boys not able to get inlto other troops of the city will be eligible for the Legion troops. The Utah Plan which isl being sponsored by all posts of the organization in this state proposes A) seek the cooperation of all citizens Ipr the purpose of obtaining definite suggestions for community upbuilding. Recommendations will be made to local y posts during the period from F 12 to 22 after which the posts' will decide which project they can sucThe acce pted cessfully carry out. project is to be put into operatio p at the earliest possible moment foil the decision. That the Legion proposal will bfc a success is indicated by the enthusiasm with which Legionnaires and citizens generally are responding to the idea. Many letters received in department headquarters of the organization express the thought that no. better plan for community, welfare could be devised and that full cooperation m?(y be expected. 40 & 8 to Assist H. W. Brangham, grand chef ide gare of La Societe des 40 Hommes et 8 Chevaux, the Legions funmakilig society, has assured department ofl that his organization will coog) erate with local posts in the development of civic programs and has tidl vised members of the organization to submit their suggestions for such ac tivities to post officers.

But have you ever stopped to figure how much of this is in the form of an incredibly high gasoline tax? Lets see what happens when you leave the Concrete Highway and take to a gravel or a dirt road. Conclusive tests have proved that a gallon of gasoline will carry you only two thirds as far on a gravel road as on a Concrete Road. On a dirt road a gallon of gasoline will carry you only hall as far as on Concrete. With gasoline at twenty cents a gal- lon, you would thus pay a gasoline tax of more than 6 cents per gallon on the gravel road and 20 cents a gallon on the dirt road. These are figures you cant get away from. You can prove them yourself. And remember that every time you travel on either a dirt or a gravel road you also increase wear and tear on tires and run up your general repair bills. Why continue to pay these high taxes and get nothing in return but the discomfort and inconvenience of unpaved roads and streets? Let your local officials know you want an adequate system of Concrete Roads and Streets. They are just as willing to build them as you are anxious to get them.
