Where elders are ordained to the office of seventy, a certificate of ordination is prepared by the First Council of the Seventy and mailed directly to the brother who has been or dinned. A letter then is sent to the stake clerk, with copies for the bishop of the ward and president of the quorum in which the brother is to become a member. - These copies are to be mailed or , delivered by the stake clerk to the bishop and quorum president concerned.

Thirty-foof the thirty-eig- ht members strictly comply with the Word of imilom,--eighty per cent pay their honest tithes and their average attendance at Sacrament meeting consistently exceeds fifty per cent. AU thirty of the active members living in the stake hold numerous branch, ward and stake positions, having eighty-foassignments in ail. Thirty-fiv- e of these tasks are duties In which seventies should preferably be engaged. The other caUings include a Scout Commissioner, members on the Sunday School Board of the stake, quorum per cent of its membership engaged in missionary work, that's news and evidence of a real achievement. When, in addition, ninety-tw- o per cent of its members are actively participating in Church activities, each one averaging three Church or stake assignments, an example has been set which merits congratulations and emulation by others. Such is the enviable record of the 345th Quorum of Seventy, which came into existence some two years ago as the North Carbon Stake was separated from its parent organization, the Carbon Stake. This new stake covers an area about fifty mires by twenty miles wide and is comprised of five wards and four bfinches.
