Father Ruel has been an active force in the eivie betterment of t the community, contributing lib- - erally of his time and means no r the physical and social develop-ment of the youth of Bingham. A typical illustration of .this inter-- .; est is recalled to mind when Fa-- , ther Ruel sponsored the Rosary : boys basket ball team '.which.- closed the season with an inter-stat- e meet at I'oeatello, Idaho.

Schools' to take effect at nhe close of the present school year. Mr. Atkia is retiring frotm the achool to go into the business pro-fession.

Always deep-- i , ly and sincerely interested in the welfare of the students, of the teachers and of the city, his pleas t ant generalship has resulted in 1 constructive improvement thru-- out the entire community. Ia j most outstanding achievement has been the adopting of a policy of strengthening .each department of ten school to effect a balanced curriculum.

Boys' T and girls' athletics, debating, mu-sic, and drama now offer abun-dant opportunity for the training of the students. In maintaining the standard of scholarship, Mr. Atkin has been equally vigilant. Great strides have been made, in adjusting the curriculum to the individual needs of the students. It is to be regretted that Mr. Atkin will not be here to see the final working out of the plan, started under his direction, of adjusting the school to the child. Burdened with the dual respon-sibility of both the elementary and secondary Bchools, Mr. Atkin has built up a delightful spirit of between the two groups, and he has kept both units running smoothly. Mr. Atkin 'a charm of person-ality has won him the affection and admiration of his faculty and of the students. Always agree-able and optimistic, always con-structive in his criticisms, he has made it a pleasure to work with him. The school aa he leaves it, is well organized ,and characterized by an unusual spirit of friendli-ness. It is financially sound, and efficiently managed. Mr. Atkin 's many friends join in thanking him for his splendid servce as principal of the Bing-- . ham schools, and in wishing him and his family godspeed and ' i J luck wherever they go.

C "Here in America," said Secretary Wilbur recently in addressing the Com-mittee on the School Child of the White House Conference on Child Health and protection, "we do a rather shabby job for our best students. We devote much of our energy to those who have to be whipped into line. We develop too little technique to take care of the moer promising students, that they may be pushed out in front and may be helped to go forward. We should make pro-gress, and I think we are making progress, towards so directing education that it will confine our best students. Though some peo-ple may hold to the opposite theory, I am convinced that doing just that is democracy. I am in-clined to believe that democracy cannot approach perfection until it gives the greatest scope to the best. "In our thought for children we have long adhered to the herd's spirit of following the lea-der. We have been sheep ' As 1 grow older the animal that I have come to admire most, I be-lieve, is the goat. Nobody ever saw a goat with his tail between his legs. He turns his front end to the world and fights. It is up to us in Btudying this vital prob-lem of the child to change our tactics and imitate the goats. We must establish a new and aggress-ive policy for the futture which above all else looks to the care of the body, mind, character and morals of the best individuals our youngsters for it is they who are destined to lead the rest." The 100th Aniversary of the L D. S. church is expected to bring more people to Salt Lake City than ever before in confer-ence history, according to church officials, and preparations are under way to entertain in every way possible the visitors who trek to the Mormon capital in time for ihe opening meeting, Sunday, April 6. Throngs at the conference are anticipated to be so large that admission to the Priesthood Meet-ing at ten o'clock Sunday morn-ing, and also to the pageant, "The Message of the Ages," which will be presented nightly beginning April 6th at eight o'- clock, will be by tickets only, Church officials state. - Members may secure tickets from their Bishop or their Stake President without charge, it is asserted. Reports indicate further that within the next few days "The Mormon Century Book", which is issued in commemoration of Mormonism's Hundredth birth-day, will be distributed through-out the membership of the church said elsewhere as a means of stimulating local and national in-terest in what a century of Mor-monis- m has accomplished. This publication will contain feature articles by Church leaders and other important writers of our Western country, it is stated. WHAT WILL WILL SAY? Will Ropers, who lias not spo-ken to the American people since January, 1928, in a coast-to-coa-broadcast, will do so Sunday ev-ening, March 30th, when he is ftucst artist of Enna Jettiek Melo-dies. This will be a 100 per cent talkie as the "Enna Jettiek Quar-tette which sings the old time songs every Sunday night, will stand by for Kogers. Mr. Rogers dictated his own terms as to what he would say. Asked if he wished any sugges-tions as to the message he would deliver fo the American people over the air he replied that he didn't need any suggestions. Ask-ed then what he would talk about he frankly admitted he didn't know. And that's where the matfer stands. So one knows what Will Rogers will talk about and he doesn't know himself, but whatever he says the great American public knows will be mighty interestng and fold in his own, inimitable mairner. The Rogers' coast-t- o coast ten minute talk will be heard over WJZ and associated NBC stations March 30th at eight o'clock Eastern Standard, seven o'clock Central Standard, six o'clock Mountain and five o'- clock Pacific Coast time. It is generally known that Will and former President Coolidge held a long conference in Ari-aon- a. Many take this as an indi-cation that he will break the si-lence for Coolidge. But will Will do it! SILVER TARIFF PASSED Last week a bill to place a tariff of 30 cents per ounce on silver imports was passed by Congress It is hoped by adopting this mea-sure that the price of domestic silver will increase to a level which will enable American silver producers to continue operations.. This is an effort in the right) di- - rectum but iCxperts express some v doubt as to whether a tariff will afford sufficient means to place the white metal on a profitable basis. , The adoption of the gold stan- - " lard as llhe unit of value by most ' all of the nations of the world .jeems to have robbed silver of its former place among the preciouH , , oietals, Silver is now at the. low-e- st level iu history, and it is doubtful if a tariff or any other artificial measure will restore ' ' tilvcr to Ihe high position so vital to the silver producing states. The metal situation seems to s hinge on the law of supply and demand. While silver is plenti- - ' ful, gold is becoming compara-tively scarcer. No large produ-- , cing high grade mines are being discovered or developed at t he present time. Moat of the gold comming on the market is such as is produced as a to ' other metals. A curtailment of silver production will also to some extent decrease the produc- - ' tion of gold where these metals ly in the same deposit. AM. LEGION DANCE Post No. 30, American Legion will hold a dance Saturday March 29th at Society hall. This will be an invitation dance for Legionar-ian- s and their friends.

MENTAL ATTITUDE If you accept a hundred thous-and, flunking it is a bribe, you are guilty, but if you think you are loaning an old friend a few bones to tide him over a financial crisis, that '8 no crime, you're only foolish, according to the mo-dern tribunals of justice. It is most fortunate for most of us that no Sherlock has been able to detect our "mental atti-tude.' Mr. and Mrs. 8. E. Fernley en-tertained Wednesday evening of last week.
