The attention of postmasters U di-rected to the fact that In January ev-ery year the dead-lette- r service re-ceives between three and four million dad letters containing Christmas and New Year carda In addition to the normal receipts of ordinary undollver-abl- e letters. ' This enormous increase In undellv. arable matter If of course due prim-arily to incorrect addresses, but would still be preventable in spite of ' incorrect addressing If the patrons of the service could be persuaded to place their return addresses on the envelopes contrary to the widespread custom of mailing greeting cards In noncard envelopes. The loss thus sustained each year by the mailing public la enormous, amounting to not less' than $325,000 In cash outlay, not to mention the disappointment of hundreds of thous-ands of persons who fall to receive the anticipated greetings, leading no doubt In many ' cases to aalsunder-- landings and estrangements, since . In the absence of a return address on the envelope the lettor can not be re-turned and the mailer therefor Is un. --w aware that bis or her message was not delivered. , Thousands of these found to contain gifts of money ' j I when opened in the dead-lett- er office and comparatively few contain eucl-cie-information to enable their re-turn to the mailers. If patrons of the malls could be persuaded to write their return ad. dresses on the covers of these letters not only they but the post-offic- e ser , vice would be saved much trouble and "4 annoyance and yon are therefore r f ' quested to give this matter as much publicity as possible In your local pa-pers without expense to the depart-ment JOHN II. BARTLETT, ; " First Assistant Postmaster General '' Adding another bit of romance to "THE EXODUS." the Utah-mad- e moving picture of the state's pioneer) f days the wedding of Horace W. Karr, j publicity and advertising director of the Pioneer Film Corporation, and Mrs. Burdette Benson Thrusday morn. lng, December I, will Interest many . local people. The wedding took place - at the - -- home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. S. B. Clawson. 17 Canyon road at " 10:30 o'clock with . only Immediate friends present. The ceremony was performed by the bride's uncle, Blsh-- op Thomas A. Clawson of the Eight- - eenth ward. ' : f Immediately following : , the cere- - mony a reception was held at the res-- idence with a large number ' of close V friends of the bride' and groom extend- - -- ing congratulations. M ' i The bride cornea from a pioneer family; her parents and grandparents for several generations having been prominent In the social, economio and church life of the state. She was born in Salt Lake and has lived there i always with the exeptlon of a short time in Ogden and Logan. She has a f host of friends, being one of Salt Lake's most charming and beautiful . ' women. ; " V The groom Is an Ohloaa by hirth..K ' Mr. Karr has been engaged in the newspaper . business. Incidentally many know his voice, though they may not have seen him as he has ;t been "on the air" 'pjmcet every night for two months over station K 8 L. Mr. and Mrs. Karr left Salt Lake Thursday afternoon n their car for Hollywood to be present Saturday at V the "preview- - of THE EXODUS. " They will return to Salt Lake the lat-ter part of next week to make their " permanent home.; i WHILE THE PEOPLE SUFFER An organization calling themselves the Taxpayers Association have had a strangle hold on the County Com-missioners for the past couple of weeks while injunctions are beUig heard to determine whether the Com-missioners can appropriate money from the general fund of the county to the road department to carry on work now that all resources allowed that deportment have been exhaust-ed. - The budget appropriation for char-''V- t lty has likewise been exhausted and nothing can be paid out to dependent and destitute persons and wards of the county until next Friday or until action is taken by the court upon the lnjunceflon. " " Meantime( the destitute and help-less will go hungry and many citizens will have to put up with bad traffic . conditions, hazardous and snow-blocke- d roads. For the past 2 weeks or more the people of Highland Boy have practically been snowbound, Men came out with the snowplow and commenced rk but were recalled. Most of the traffic to and from this district Is with sleds or on foot and if another heavy snow should come on top of the present lay, no vehicle could make the trip from Bingham to Highland Boy. Other canyon roads also are blocked with snow and many of the scondaty roads are In need of repairs. ; Wo do not know all of those who ehare the responsibility for the pres-ent conditions but we do know it bad Us origin in gum shoe politics. It seems there are some people whose greatest and only force is that of be-ing an obstacle and it also seems Salt Lake County is now paying the price of her selective Indiscretion. i The Antlers of Bingham Canyon are sponsoring a show which will be held at the Gem Theatre on Friday, Dec 14, 1928, hjt 7:30 p. m. The pur-pose of the show is to collect toys - . "" and finances to help carry out the an-nual program, which the Elks put on each year In seeing to it that all chil-dren are supplied with Christmas toys. At this show any broken toy will pay the admission of any child up to 12 years of age. The attention of the public Is s gain called to the col-lection of toys Jnja they may care to , ' donate and the same may be left at the following places: . Highland Boy Merc. Co., Miners Merc. Co., Bingham Merc. Co. and the Bingham Stage Line office. . The mppagement of the Gem The- - ' atre Is with the Elks in putting over this show. Also the vari-ous women's organizations have ten-dered their assistance and it is ex-- '. ' pected the field will be more fully covered this year than It has benn In the past TOBAGCO ADVERTISING OejHE RADIO '; Many comments are being made and heard of because of the rado pro. paganda of a certain large cigarette concern of what an excellent product they have, the sweet enjoyment of a smoke, its healthfulness, its tendency to keep the body in neat trim and keeping one from gaining weight, und what a boon it Is to the modern wo-man who wishes to keep her figure perfect( an Invigorating smoke, if you please. Since when did the cigarette be-come a panacea for the human body Instead of the "coffin nail" that It IsT It Is true that some people have grown old who have been habitual smokers, but it is also true that peo-ple have died of old age that had the deadly cancer for many years. If a person wants to smoke, we grant him that privilege and he does so within his rights, but we do object to advertising that Is misleading, and which will convert young people to smoking. Who will say that tobacco Is not a poison? If you do not believe It, the test is very simple. Take anyone who has never smoked or chewed and let that person smoke or chew - and note the deadly sickness it produces. In fact, there are but few Bubstances in nature that are capable of destroy-ing life so suddenly as tobacco. One or two drops of the oil have been ad-ministered to cats and dogs and in-variably died within a few moments. ' Tobacco Is the direct cause of many diseases of the digestive organs, lungs, nervous system, head( eyes 'and brain. Tobacco produces a ten-dency to paralysis, causes drowsiness, unnatural sleep and a number of oth-el- r ailments vital in their nature. Smoking causes great dlfficllty in breathing. - If you belong to a hiking club, you will find the heavy smoker trailing far behind and many of them never reach the Intended destination. The violent palpitation of the heart cannot be overcome by actual exer. else. The least exertion on the part of a heavy smoker immediately tells upon him and he gasps for bretth. Some of the advertising of tobacco goes so far as to say that it is better for a wompln or a girl to smoke a ci-garette than to yield to the tempta-tion of getting too fat by consuming augafred sweets. The sugar institute announces that the public has been cutting sugar out of its diet to a dan-gerous extent as a result of publicity that has been sent throgh all parts of the country, advising those who seek the "boyish figure" to avoid sugar fcpd sweets. Sugar is essential for a person's health and well being, but the best that can be said for tobacco is that it Is a curse , to the one who contracts the habit When women children are en-couraged In smoking through uni-versal broadcasting, then we claim that there is something wrong with the system that allows such propa-ganda. ' ' iGHfflf : H0USE1BURNS The worst flre occurring here for lonie time was that of the L. D. S. Ward house which took place last Monday night. Dut for the prompt iction of the Volunteer Fire Depart-ment the building . would no doubt have been a toUi loss. The fire oil (inated in t'.e attic and Is supposed to hvea beon caused by sparks from a defective flue. The buildlug, which is of frame construction, wps filled with patrons who had gathered to witsess a playlet whloh one of the ward organizations was giving for the benefit of Christmas tree fund. The play had only commenced when the fire was discovered. The audiouct quickly cleared ti e building although no panic occurred and all escaped safety. Fireman Buckles Was not so fortunate, however for he received a painful wound in the foot which re-quired Mm to h'ave medical attention. Bishop Lyon stated Tuesday that work of reconstruction would start as soon as the appraisers completed their work. 11700 of insurance vyjs carried on the Chapel.
