Delbert Johansen, Auctioneers Jay Winkelman and Que Seely did a good job of auctioning off the household livestock, food and articles which had been donated by not only members of the First and Fourth wards, but came from North Sanpete every ward in Stake. The auction was stopped, according to officials in charge, when people started leaving, and there were still a lot of articles which had not been brought up for sale. Another social of this type for the benefit of the First and Fourth ward chapel being erected, will be held in the near future, Bishop Averett said, and at this time the remainder of the unsold articles will be brought up for sale. The opening social of the First and Fourth ward Relief Societies was held Tuesday afternoon, and at this time a total of $1,000, $500 from each ward Relief Society was handed to the bishops by the two presidents, Mrs. Clea Madsen of the First ward, and Mrs. Johannah Hafen of the Fourth ward. This sum is the result of their summer's work towards the church building fund. The new chapel being built of red brick on the site of the old North ward chapel, is now up to the square and one section of the roof has been started. The roof will be on before winter sets in so that inside finishing work may go on during the winter months.

It seems evident that to secure good government, we should know something about the methods and wrays public opinion is influenced. There are many ways that have been developed to influence public opinion. These techniques commonly called propoganda methods are used constantly. An important task for any democratic citizen is to learn to recognize and evaluate them in their many forms. For those who wish credit, these courses will probably carry 5 hours.
