My friend. Newell Knight, city historian, dusted off some old city records awhile back and found some advice given to new city officials from Brigham Young. As territorial governor, he was often asked for advice on city problems, and sometimes gave advice when he thought it was needed, withoat being asked. The governor has leaked a few details of the new model, such as his intention to use state revenue sharing funds for equalization of educational financing, providing the Legis- ' With new faces going into office within a few weeks, it might be well to pass on some of the Brigham Young wisdom. lature agrees.

WOOD HIGHER UP President Young warned the commissioners not to carry a chip on their shoulders. A chip on your .shoulder is a sure Mr. Young said the commissioners would hear a lot of gossip. "Gossip." he said, "is something negative developed and then enlarged." He had some advice that would easily fit some of the youth of today. "It is a sad thing to note that there are among our people, those who believe they're out of this, world, and are so seldom ready for the next. TEND HIS OWN WAY to He might have been warning the commissioners remain honest when he said, "man doesn't need to be lead uito temptation. He usually can find his own way." President Young also told the commissioners tnat the easiest thing in the world to do is to find fault with each other. The hairiest thing, he added, was to keep still about it. "Too many of us are scratching around to get out of a situation we were just itching to get into in the first place." he sud or one occasion. "There is no sense in advertising your troubles. There is no market for them." he once told a commissioner. And speaking of youth to the commission one day.

Forget your old troubles, because there will always be fresh ones to take their place, he added. use of secrecy, of course, gives the governor some advantage in the continuing competition between the branches in the states separation of powers system. From the time the budget is presented until constitutionally set time of adjournment, the Legislature has fewer than 50 working days. Faced with a mountainous task to be performed in a short time, the Legislature may be tempted to take the easiest path and follow die recommendations of the experts.
