All this has been done without cost to the sportsmen of Salt Lake county, except the relative few who have paid a $1 a year for membership in the associa tion. There are over 10,000 fish and game license owners in Salt Lake county; is it fair for a few hundred to protect your rights year after year? Think it over, attend the annual meeting, voice your sentiments. JOIN THE ASSOCIATION. SNOW SPORTS SHOULD BE ENCOURAGED Salt Lake City has gained wide recognition as a summer resort where motoring, exploration of canyons, mountain climbing and other pastime may be enjoyed, but why should it not be equally advertised as a winter resort, g where snow sporth, skiing, and kindred pleasures are susnow-shoein- preme. Mayor C. Clarence Neslen and other members of the board of city commis- sioners have encouraged this snow sport. Other organizations including the Wasatch Mountain club, girls of the University of Utah, the Norwegian Skiing club and groups of winter enthusiasts are increasing their interest in merriment over the white mantel. As the result of necessity for rounding out their seasons into more productive Interest many of the European cities in the neighborhood of the Alps make large appropriations for adver-- . Using their winter sports. Huge returns result from tourists and those who feel that they need relaxation in some kind of sport during the winter. Attention to this fact should be called to Salt Lake businessmen who have invested more than $75,000 to advertise Salt Lake City. With a big course, let it be suggested, built bv Salt Lake City, this part of the country should be able to take from Minnesota and other middle western districts some of the records and at the same time get a lot of valuable adverting for Salt Lake City as a winter resort as well as a summer resort. ski-jumpi- ski-jumpi- en and brutal John Barleycorn that nobody would listen to the man who had the courage to deny its authenticity. There is no doubt at all that a great many absolutely honest and undoubtedly simple persons fully believed that if we could only have a prohibition law there would at once be a return to Edenic innocence. Not for all the world that lies exposed to view from the uttermost peak of ML Hood would The Spectator poke fun at the good and honest folk who have the happiness to believe that the world can in a day be made moral by legal enactment. To be quite candid, The Spectator thinks indeed, knows that some persons have been legislated into sobriety by the Volstead act. But from what the Journal tells us, it seems that only a few have enjoyed regeneration through legislation. In the multiplicity of reports of crimes in this country, compared with the dearth of such news from Canadian cities there is a hint, at least, that if we are all to be made sinless by law, we probably have made a mistake in looking for the Volstead act to work the charm. The Spectator believes and declares that, notwithstanding some persons have been driven to total abstinence by the Eighteenth amendment, there is more crime in this country today than there was at any period in our history prior to January, 1920, when the prohibition law went into effect. According to the Journal's view, Canada, which has reg- - ulation Instead of prohibition, enjoys immunity from the lawlessness that is shockingly general here. There are still some excellent persons who believe that the sort of prohibition we HIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIINIIUIIIIIUIIINIIUIUUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIUIIIIH Government Municipal Corporation BONDS Local Securities Trust Cq Central InvcshnadBonds . .Main at First South Salt Ukf Ciy.Ulh 5IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIi EVANS & EARLY Funeral Directors 48 8outh State 8treet Telephone Wasatch 5516 IlHIININIinmillHHIiainNimiNIIIINnamimaNINHHIHNIlmNIININIHIUIIIIHNNHIHIINlUIBHMtMnNINHUlHaNHNIHIINHININlNaNllN aiiaNiaaHaaiaaiaaaaaaaiaaiHiiaiaaaaiiaaiHiaiaaaiiiaaaiiaaaiaaiaaiaaiaiaaaiiiaiMHaaaaaMaaaaaiaaaaiaiaiaaiaaiaiaaieiii Smiling Through on Ironing Day ng ng Watch for our announcement next week in this newspaper. CRIME HERE AND IN CANADA In the multiplicy of reports con- cerning crimes here and there in the United States, of robberies, burglaries, bank holdups and the like, there is one outstanding fact. It is the almost entire dearth of such news from Canadian cities, where British legal traditions are in vogue and where justice is swift and apparently merciless for the guilty. The Journal. In the wet old days before we bartered the bartender for the bootlegger, it used to be said that whisky was responsible for 75 per cent of the crime committed in the world.
