Show Evening Meeting of Lions Club Is WelUttended With 17 Linns club members and three vi.-ilors present, the first of a series of alternate evening meetings meet-ings of the local Lions club was held Wednesday evening at the Union Pacific dining room and was voted a big success. C. G. Haskell', who had requested re-quested a meeting with the club, told of the way the quarantine against Utah alfalfa hay entering the state of California, originally set up against the alfalfa weevil, is working seriously against not only the hay raisers of Utah but also the dairymen and other consumers con-sumers on the coast. The latter are forced to pay exhorbitant prices for hay that is vastly inferior to the Utah products, while the local product, except for an occasional severe winter like the last one, goes begging at barely a third of the price obtained on the coast. Mr. Haskell thought it would be a fine project for the Associated Civic Clubs of Southern Utah to work toward getting this quarantine quaran-tine lifted or modified and Lion L. A. Wynaught, who represents the Milford Lions club as director in the civic clijbs association, promised prom-ised to get this matter worked on by the association. Trustees W. B. Gardner and H. V. Carlson were present, representing repre-senting the town board, who had been invited as a body, and they explained that it had been the decision de-cision of the board to defer starting start-ing work on the town park until some GO days hence when the present pres-ent curb and gutter project would be completed, it was thought. Mr. Gardner explained that plans for the park had been drawn up and accepted as a W P A project and that good headway should be made later this summer, ready for planting plant-ing this fall and next spring. Mr: Carlson said that the condition of the streets was fully realized by the town board and that work on the oiled roads, which have become badly pitted though only in existence exist-ence since last fall, would be repaired re-paired at once while side streets would be worked over with the new power grader as soon as possible. Mr. Gardner also told the club if plans being worked out for Ar-jor Ar-jor day, designated for April 12, ind urged that Lions and all others end a helping hand. Lion Wynaught, asked when the Associated Civic Clubs of Southern Utah would be coming to-Milford, dated that the June monthly meet-,ng meet-,ng was open but that the July iieeting was to be held in Beaver inuV.it might not be well to ask the association to come twice to this :ounty in succession. He also told f a good-will meeting of the or-Tanizatin or-Tanizatin to . be undertaken this .veek-end, which would take those participating over highway 89 to Flagstaff, Arizona, on to Kingman ind back by way of Boulder dam nd highway 91. Karl G. Link, superintendent of :he Tintic Lead mining properties md the newest member of the Lions club, spoke briefly, telling of increasingly encouraging condi-:ions condi-:ions at the King David mine and )f their confidence that they would ventually bring in another Horn Silver mine. The civic improvement commit-:ee commit-:ee of the club, consisting of Lions George Jefferson, R. R. Shannon, Thomas Gerrard and David S.
