Yon do, well that'e fine, I'm glad to hear It; but there are many people lu Provo who do not know. Not long aluce a cltlien of aufflclent Importance to be called prominent' aharply objected to the name Sowiette and wondered where euch an outlandish name came from. Here la the story: Back la 1847 when the Mormon pioneers came to Great Salt Lake valley, two Indian chiefs. Walker and Sowiette, were encamped In Spanish Fork canyon. They had learned of the approach of the pioneers, and held a council to consider what should be dona The fiery Walker urged that the Indiana should go to the valley on the north and kill tbe whites before they became too numerous; but Sowiette, who had learned of the expulsion of the Mormons from the Statae and felt sympathetic for them, op posed Walkers plan. The angry Walker charged Sowiette with cowardice, whereupon Sowiette lashed him with a rawhide whip. Of course there was naa blood between the two Indiana Three years later, there was another clash between the two chiefs. Walker, Just returned from a California raid with a thousand ponies, was eager to so north sad attack the Snakes, and solicited the aid of the younp men In the Provo fort They refused, and Brigham Young, to whom Walker appealed, confirmed their action and advised Walker to live In peace with his Indian brothers and not shed blood. Infuriated, Walker came with four hundred warriors to attack Provo fort. The settlers.

V. ILiNSEN Courage always demands respect. The world admires the man who never flinches from unexpected difficulties, who calmly, patiently, and courageously grapples with hla fate, who dies if need be, at his post. it takes courage to do business squarely, honestly, and to carry on against difficulties. It takes courage to staud up fur ones religious convictions, and to fight fur that which is right, when confronted with that which is opposite. Courage will triumph. It will route failure in the eud. It can be cultivated to a high degree. Confidence and courage , are closely akin. When the two are allied a man has not only mastery over himself, but a key to the mastery of the world. Life, after all, is a great struggle. It takes something of the quality of heroism to face it unflinchingly. The timid man who keeps his light hidden under a bushel, is almost foredoomed to failure. Likewise the men who is easily baffled. There are many who face difficulties with a fine front till they meet with decisive rebuff, when they turn back crestfallen and defeated. Courage and persistence msy not only retreve a lost fortune, they may be the means of winning one In the first place. The man who wavers, only half trusting In himself, Is likely to fulfill his own gloomiest fears. Distrust begets weakness and ends In failure. Gathering genealogy, and doing research work, sometimes taxes the courage and patience to the utmost And it Is only the Individual who has determination and perseverance that will succeed in the end. The man that wrote 2000 letters In order to find an ancestor, and finally got results, tells the story.
