The actual mountair standard time of adjournment was 1:02 a. m. Wednesday . The work of the legislature wai summarized in a parting message from Governor George II. Dern which aaid, in part: "I have the honor to inform you that I have no further legis-lative business to call to the at-tention of the eighteenth legisla-ture in special session convened. "I avail myself of this oppor-tunity to congratulate you upon your success in tiaking the first steps toward a thorough and scientific revision of the state's system of taxation. I have confi-dence that the people will ap prove your actions, and thereby make ii! possible for the next leg-islature to put into effect a new tax system that shall decrease ex-isting inequalities and thus pro-mote equity and contentment. ."Please permit me to express my gratitude for your cordial co-operation with the executive de-partment.", . , Pass Six Amendments To Eight Sections.

Relating to the loca-tion of .the state prison. eight sections of Ihe constitution, and a number of bills of minor Passage of the two resolution sponsored by the Utah tax revis-ion commission marked the clos-ing moments of the 30-d- ay session The first was S. J. R. No. 2, by Ryan, which classifies property :wd permits of an income tax, and makes some other amendments. Later came from the house S. J. R. No. 3, amended, but in such form that the senate could con-cur in the house amendments and that meant that the session - was TWO MORS GAMES Two more games and the high school division contests will bv over. Bingham appears to have the Jordan division championships pretty well tucked away. Two hard battles are lined up for them when they meet the fast Jordan Hi. tomororw night at Jordan here in the final game one Meek later. The latter team has the only win of the division over the Miners this season and it goes without saying, the locals will make a supreme effort to avenge for this one. At the present time, three teams Cyprus, Jordan and Murray are tied for second place. Estimating the strength of the teams they will meet by their past record, it would seem, Cypres has an edge over the other two with Murray next. to expect to cut down that $1500 i mortgage. f In addition to the usual eventu i such as membership meetings, the Riot ,the Utah Lake Outfitting i 'etc, a two day encampment was held in the Uintah Mts., last August, with a program that fea tured focusing attention on, in-creasing the productivity of the waters in the State and the im-portance of more science in fish propagation.

Roy Thompson. President. GAME PRESIDENT REVIEWS WORX Fellow Sportsman: At times we are called upon to justify the existence of our or-ganisation. This should not be necessary. Our accomplishments should speak for themselves. The most important assets in this Association are yourself and other interested sportsmen and the ability to make use of these assets depends largely upon you. Your ideas with your suggestions will go a long way toward con-structive progress. Your dues, of course are necessary and when they are paid your interest should go in with them. Your presence is urgently re-quested at all of our meetings and your participation in our activi-ties is solicited. In 1929 we had 2100 members. Let us delegate ourselves to bring in at least one new member. We should hsve 4000 members in Salt Lake County. A review of the 192Q activities should be of interest to you. Perhaps the outstanding ac-complishment was the purchase of a hatchery and rearing ponds; located adjoining the State Hatch try at Murray. This is a complete plant, ideally located, ample wa-ter and it has a espseity for hstch ing 1,000,000 eggs, rearing facili ties to eare for the hatch until they are tnrned over to the State at fry to fingcrling size, exeept thoie we retain to rear to our standard before planting (7 to 10 inches. The annual output from our ponds will be 100,000, 7 to 1C inch trout by 1931. Last year from this hatchery, we released 13,500, legal sized trout and this year we have 60,-00- 0 rainbow that will be 7 to in length and will be plant cd in Salt Lake County :ream tbia year. The purchase price of thi hatch ery was 133.00 and last year then was $600. expended on improve-- ' ments. We paid $1800 on the pur chase price, the balance of $1500-0- 0 being secured by a mortgage running for 3 years. We are paying off some current libilities and with the desired support on the 1930 membership drive we 'should soon be out in the daft jwith a $2400 equity in a $3900.00 plant and it may not be too much MINING IS FOUNDATION OF CIVILIZATION; - With the exception of agricul-ture, mining is the worlds' oldest industry. When primitive man found that such metals as copper and iron could be used as cooking vessels and weapons and were immeasurably superior to anything clwe known, the human race embarked ou the road that lead, after hundreds of centuries to civilization. Practically every .'commodity uses a metal os a basic factor. El-ectricity and medical appliances, printing .presses and farm tools and thousands of luxuries and necessities that are a part of our daiy lives, could not bo made without metals. It is no coincidence that epochs in world history are described by the metals they introduced such as the "Iron Age" and be f'Cop per Age." Today we live in tL . 'Mechanical Age,'" in which iue-tal- s of all kinds, precious and baae, are more necessary to in-dustry and society than eevr be-for- e. '..',.' BINGHAM A. C.
