Forty-on- e dogs have been killed in Ogden during the present week, according to the report received by the board of city commissioners. Jedidinh Woodard is on trial at Salt Lake on a charge of murder in the second degree for the killing of his son, Alfred Woodard, on May 2, 1917 The traveling salesmen of most of the Inrger business concerns of the state are now engaged in the distribution of thrift and war stamps along the routes of their travel. Immediate closing of all passenger soliciting offices, elimination of passenger soliciting positions ' and the discontinuing of all freight soliciting in Utah, has been ordered by the railway director. For the killing of Sam Pappas, near Union, Salt Lake count y, Elgin Walker must face a charge of voluntary manslaughter. Pappas was killed the night of March 21, when lie was struck by Walkers automobile. Improperly prepared foods for' immediate consumption may not be sold in Utah with impunity and without fear of consequences to the vendor, according to a decision handed down by the state supreme court. Governor Bamberger, in his Liberty loan speaking tour, is accompanied by Thomas B. Love, assistant secretary of the federal treasury; Judge Martin J. Wade of Iowa and Sergeant Matthew Wayman of the British army. To cover a proposed total expenditure of $36,400 on highways In Iron county this year, the commissioners will levy a road tax, pursuant to a decision reached at a meeting with the state road commission. Within thirty days the taxpayers of Ogden City will be called upon to indicate their wishes in the matter of helping the city make good its credit. In other words, to vote upon the question of a $100,000, or more, bond Issue. It is highly unprofitable and extremely unethical in Utah to attempt to collect a debt by locking up the debtor in a secluded room at ones place of business, as is indicated in a decision handed down by the state supreme courts" The campaign against unmuzzled dogs, which was inaugurated in Ogden recently, has spread to Weber county, and from this date on the county dogs without muzzes running along the country highways will meet the same fate as those of the city. Though the new Enfield rifles have been in possession of the Utah soldiers at Camp Lewis, members of the 348th field artillery, during the last three weeks, they have been confined in their use to the manual of arms. Now, however, the Utahns are becoming familiar with target range work. That Utahs girls are of the highest type and are among the leaders in doing original things is attested by the fact that the London Daily Mail thought the stunt of the Chi Omega sorority girls of the University of Utah last winter in pulling off a ski party was worth publishing in the columns of the paper. Professor Byron Cummings, formerly dean of the bCiiool of arts and sciences of the University of Utah and internationally known for his archaeological research work among the ancient ruins of the cliff dwellers, in Arizona, has been appointed to the position of dean of the school of arts and sciences of the University of Arizona. Indorsement of the movement recently launched by members of the Weber club of Ogden and the Ogden publicity bureau to bring one of the factories for the manufacture of the gun invented by John M. Browning to that city is gaining impetus, the citizens generally Indorsing the movement. Acting Governor Harden Benlon has signed requisition papers on the governor of California for the return to Utah of Walter K. Yorston, who is under arrest at Los Angeles on a charge of having deserted his wife and child and refusing to contribute to their support. While he was caged like a mad dog, growling, frothing and tearing at his face witii his finger nails, death came to George C. Chandler of Ogden, a victim of the dread hydrophobia, who Had refused, despite the pleas of physicians and relatives, to take a preventive treatment. The citizens of Ogden City and Weber county made a splendid response to the call of the Red Cross for used clothing which will' be sent to the refugees of Belgium and France. The teachers of Boxelder county have made an appeal to "the board of education for an increase in salaries to meet the advanced demands made upon them in every line of activity.

On the contrary, the travelers of Lima are willing, even anxious, to pay their fares. Perhaps that doesnt seem human, but the explanation is that upon' receipt of the fare a numbered ticket is presented to the passenger, and it Is a valuable lottery ticket.
