DlfS Band And ClaoriEs Win High I2eEjrs Delta's chorus, 90 in number, was one of the largest groups partici-pating in the Ensemble. It receiv-ed highly superior the top rate for two numbers it sang. The first number was selected by the chorus. It was "Peace in Our Time". The second number, required of all schools that participated, was Dark Waters". According to W. H. Manning, of the B. A. C, the interpetation of Peace in Our Time" was very sincere. "The boy's voices balance out surprisingly well," he said. "Diction is very clear-cu- t Voices are good. The contrasts in Dark Waters" are carefully made and reading is carefully done. A very beautiful number. A very fine chorus. Congratulations on a fine number!! What a great chorus; a whole student body!" Mr. Manning awarded our chorus straight A for their work. The band received superior plus. Dr. Clair Johnson, of Weber College, one of the outstanding band judges' in the West, says of the band: "No overblowing, forcing, or cracking of tones; generally fine, mellow tone quality. This is the best band I have heard from Delta and shows great improvement over enything I remember!" The band played three numbers; a march selected by the group, "American Patriots", arranged by Paul Yoder; a required number, "Morning, Noon, and Night", and the selective number, an overture, "Jolly Robbers" by Von Suppe. While on the march for parade, the band played the "March of The Trojans". N. W. Christianson, of the U. S. A. C, says "good spread; fine lines; playing, excellent; bases; and appearance, good." As far as this section of the country is concerned, the judges were free in their praises in ad-mitting that Delta was autstand-in- g with her vocal and instrument-al groups. A truly great chorus and band has brought honor to the "Good Old D. H. S." Edgar Nieison ' Pies Suddenly Irs Oak City Monday Edgar Nielson prominent Millard county livestock raiser died unex-pectedly at his home in Oak City on Monday morning, about 6 a. m., at the age of 65 years. Apparently in good health, he arose at 5 a. m. Monday to start the day's work, and had gone back to bed for a short time, where he died. He had been hurt slightly about a week ago, when his horse fell with him on the oiled road, but had seem-ed fully recovered, and back at work. Mr. Nielson was born in Leaming-ton Nov. 2, 1882, a son of Nels Peter and Florence V. Dutson Niel-jso- n, pioneer settlers of the country. His entire life had been lived in Oak City, where he engaged in farming and livestock raising. He was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-da- y Saints, and active in church work. He had filled a mission in the southern stales some years ago, and had held various church positions. He had worked in the stake MIA over a period of 16 years, and had been president of the Oak City ward MIA. He was married to Twiss Rop-er, of Oak City, in the Salt Lake LDS temple April 7, 1910. Mr. Nielson was active also in civic affairs, and always took keen interest in livestock. He was a member of the Taylor Grazing Board at the time of his death. He was a commitfee member for this year's Millard County Junior Live-stock Show, and had also served as president of that organization. Since he was a young man he had carried the mail into Oak City, and had the mail contract at this time, He had carried the mail on the day before his death. Surviving are his widow, and these children: Lorna A. Lovell, Iv-an Nielson, Teddy L. Nielson, De-Ly- Nielson, Oak City; Gordon Nielson, and Leila Lovell, Delta; Cleo Holt, Richfield; Also surviving are 8 grandchildren, and three bro-thers, John, ' Peter and Clarence Nielson, of Oak City, and 4 sisters, Ellen Lyman, Blanding; Florence Lyman, Sunset Margaret; Willis, Vernal, and Zella Lovell.

Eurial will be in the Oak City cemetery. Proclamation . . Whereas, citizens of the City of Delta served gallantly in the defense of the United States of America in two world wars and many sacraficed their lives in that service, and Whereas, the memory of those who died will always be held in highest honor in this city, and will always be a source of pat-riotic inspiration for us all, and Whereas, this memory is brightened each year and hon-or paid to the war dead by the wearing of the Memorial Poppy on the Saturday before Memor-ial Day, now Therefore, I, Golden H. Black, Mayor of the City of Delta, do hereby proclaim Thursday, the twenty-sevent- h of May, to be Poppy Day in the City of Delta, and urge all citizens to ob-serve the day by wearing the Memorial Poppy. Livestock Show To Present Awards For Showmanship This year the Millard County Junior Livestock Show will again make awards to the exhibitors for showmanship. Three such awards are to be given, one in the fat beef class, one in the fat sheep class, and one in the fat hog class. The awards will be watches. These presentations will be in addition to what prize money is won by the exhibitor in the differ-ent divisions. They will swell the $2,000 prize money that extra The show will commence for the exhibitors next Wednesday when they will bring their animals in to be registered in the show. At the time the animal is entered the ex-hibitors project record book will be turned in to Fenton Gardner for inspection and proof that the ex-hibitor has really lived up to the rules covering FFA and 4-- club members. The judging will be done Thurs-day morning and- afternoon at which time grand champions will be picked in the three fat stock classes, as well as places in the breeding stock. The ripgs will be the first judged, followed by the sheep. A lunch hour will be called at this time and after the lunch the fat beef will be judged, breed-ing beef next and the dairy cat-tle will conclude the judging. Thursday night the annual stock-men's banquet will be held in the Delta high school with Earl Kelley as master of ceremonies. Herman Munster is in charge of the ban-quet. Friday morning, May 28, Colonel ; W. H. Adams and Son will start auctioning the fat stock with the hogs coming into the ring first. The sheep will also be sold before ' lunch. The big event of the show will commence shortly after lunch when the grand champion fat beef ; will enter the ring for sale. Much speculation is being made as to the price it will bring this year, and : it is hoped that the price will be high. The reserve champion will be ; sold next and after the sale of it the beef will all go through the ring. The sales of all fat stock is expected to be high this year. After the sale the buyers and of-ficials will again gather in their annual steak dinner which is giv-en by the show to express its ap-preciation for the buyers coming and bidding and .also for the com- - ! mittee members whose work makes the show possible each year. JayCees Prepare For Big Race Meet June 3, i 5 Three big days, June 3, 4 and 5, devoted to the sport of kings, .are fast approaching, when the big rac-ing meet will be held at Deseret race track. The Delta Junior Cham-ber of Commerce, sponsors of the meet, their first as members of the Utah Racing Association, have im-proved the grounds, have the track in excellent shape, and are pre-pared for one of the finest meets ever scheduled in the county. Twenty-fiv- e additional stalls have been built at the track, mak-ing 55 in all. Reservations have poured in at such a rate that all stalls are filled and there is a de-mand for more, so that local peo-ple may be called upon to help house some of these horses in pri-vate barns. Old Dobbin may be asked to move over and make room for a visitor. Some of the fastest horses in the state will be entered in the meet, and reservations are still coming in. The JayCees are announcing in addition to the racing cards some special sports events, and the big ball Saturday night will close the big event. HELP!. POPPY DAY AND WHAT IT MEANS By Mrs. Robert Riding, When we look into little faces we see the future of America. They are bright, happy faces and it's up to us to keep them that way. The future calls for Americans strong in mind and character, as well as in body. We must equip our children well, if they are to achieve security, peace and hap-piness for themselves and for A- -. merica. One of the best ways to equip these future leaders of America is to support the American Legion and its Auxiliaries' Welfare Pro-gram. - Some of the civic minded peo-ple of Delta and surrounding ter-ritory are handicapped to a goodly extent because they aren't mem-bers of either organization. The one way all of us can help is to buy Poppies and more Poppies!! May 27 has been proclaimed by Mayor Black as Poppy Day and I hope that each man, woman and child will buy a poppy. This is your opportunity to pay tribute to those who died in service and to help sustain the welfare rehabili- - tation work of the American Leg-ion and its Auxiliaries in providing assistance to veterans and their families. Condensed Poppy Facts ... One hundred per cent of profits from Legion popy sales are pledged to welfare relief for service men and women. Legion poppies are made of red crepe paper, by hand, by disabled veterans, in hospitals and poppy workshops in 40 states. These disabled veterans are paid for each poppy made, the material being furnished free by the dept. in which the hospital is located. Actual sale of poppies is by vol-unteer workers who receive no compensation. In the state of Utah alone $1,844.58 was paid to these hos-pitalized veterans for making more than 120,000 poppies. The veteran is paid V cents per poppy. They are thus provided with extra money for the needs of their families at Christmas time. That, alone, should help us to realize what a wonder-ful program the Street Sale of Poppies is. II.II.S.

West Millard Plans Campaign to Build Hospital in Delta The possibility of building a hos-pital in Delta for west Millard and neighboring communities was dis-cussed at a public meeting last week in the Delta Seminary. R. A. Hunt, director hospital sur- - vey and construction, Utah State Department of Health, Salt Lake City, was present to tell of the steps necessary in such a project, and the meeting was held as an informal discussion. Questions were asked and answered, both by Mr. Hunt, and community representa-tives nresent. Delta and her neighbors are vit-ally interested in having a hos-pital and no dissenting opinions have been expressad. Such a pro-ject could be made possible, thru federal aid. which is assured, state! f"nds. and local support, each pay-ing one third of the total cost. 'n round figures, hospitals cost $10,000 a bed to build. For instance, if a hospital with 10 beds is con-templated, the total cost would be S100.000. A third of the cost or $33,333.33 would be borne by Fed-eral aid. The remaining two-thir-would be cared for, one third by state funds, one third by subscrip-tions from the community. There may be a delay in procuring state funds, as the application' awaited its turn. In raising the local one-thir-that would be the responsibility of the community, and a campaign could be started now, accumulating money with that end in view. Your 'opinion and your financial support will both be solicited for a hospital in Delta. Plans and proposals up to date are tentative, and all opinions are highly favorable. Committees will be formed to undertake the open-ing steps and public opinion sound-ed, so that such a project could be completed as rapidly as pos-sible, with the full support of all citizens If you have an opinion you would like to express, write it to the Chronicle, or talk to some of your civic leaders. Subexpressions may be published, and all sides of the question will be considered. As told by Mr. Hunt, first steps include creating the hospital dist-rict, sponsored by a political sub-division, such as the county; mak-ing application, and procuring the services of an architect, as the hospital must fulfill federal speci-fications. These steps taken, it still takes time and money to bring the project to completion, a condition and community faces in undertaking civic improvement. The need for adequate hospital facilities, with a view to the future and a growth ,in population, was discussed at the meeting, and it was felt that west Millard would freely pledge their time and money for a hospital in Delta.

G. & E. em- - ployee following a roadside acci-dent near Livermore.
