It it good to be in Utah. (This was hand set bv Everet Seely after 60 years since he worked at it) THE NEED OF THE WORLD here is something we clipped from lime Magazine' which we commend to the reactionaries: 'We need a wind in the world which shall sweep away our refuge of lies. When society's institutions no longer possess vitality the life of people within that society become false. Western civilization, for all its great contributions to human thought, is dangerously debilitated. Religion has be-come parochial, philosophy is in shreds and patches, is without authority, science is without morality morals, education has become computation, justice has become a study of technical-itie- s. The soul of modern man is not divided, it is shattered." It's an Old English Custom I f - J . .:... vvV' "::: ft ' ,1 ' "'J " I In a Sicilian orchard, Gen. Bernard Montgomery, commander of the British Eighth army and a key leader of the invasion, takes time ont for afternoon tea. On the heels of the Sicilian offensive came an Allied ultimatum telling Italy to get out of the war. This was soon followed by a bombing of military objectives in Rome.

Its worth far more than the little you pay for it. ) Inspirations WORTH MORE THAN ALL ELSE Several years ago I visited a good woman in a place provided by the county for the poor and unfortunate. She was young in years but was slowly wasting away from an incurable disease. She had lost her worldly all and was a thousand miles away from any relative. But there was a " light in her soul. There was one thing she had clung to one thing that remained when practically all else had fled her simple, unwavering waith. "Are you resigned to your fate?" I askecl her. "Yes, perfectly, and happy in the resignation. I know there is a God. He is near me and in life and death I submit to His will." Then she read me a few inspiring lines from a little book she was holding. Here was an outstanding exhibition of that trusting, star-li- t faith which is worth more than all material things that she was missing. Nothing greater can take possession of the mind and heart of man. It is the foundation of all spiritual uplift, the greatest stimulous to moral character. It is the keystone in the arch of all properly developed lives. It runs like a thread of gold through the changing scenes of life and should be the root thought of the race. It is the force that changes and makes beautiful the desert of existence, that sweetens life and "wreathes affliction's heaviest shower and sorow's keenest wind." It bears us up and on. It lights the soul in passing and spans the gulf-- like tomb. It is the passport to all that humans hope for in heaven. "The simple faith is sweetest at the last, When pride and wealth and power all are gone; It whispers promise when death's die is cast, And leads the plodding pilgrim on and on."

Although they appear comical there is grim determination behind this gesture and the boys' friends hope they will let their hair grow back very soon for more than one reason. Men Must Not Stand Against Change The insanities that are abroad in the earth do not mean the end of the world, as many have thought, and yet they are the definite signs that Jesus said should come just before the end. It is the end of an age, the time when the old order is dying and a new age is being born. It is change that is coming a great change in political, social and religious insti-tutions, methods of working, people's relations with one another, etc. Many conservatives and reactionaries look with consternation upon the changing conditions. But change should not be resisted. They should not continue to cling to the wrecks of outworn things and institutions. To bring in the neoesary changes many old landmarks must disappear. There must be some disrupting, some smashing; some chaos. The destruction of ideas and institutions which humanity has outgrown is in process and nothing can stop it. It is Destiny's way because the world will not let it come in any other way. Make way for the spiritual age of man. "New occasions teach new duties, Time makes ancient good uncouth." Neighbor Soren Frandsen is one man who comes in on the very day when his subscription is due eyery year all the time, and that marks him as an honest man. He got his fin-ancial start in Sanpete and Se-vier. When wheat was 35c a bushel he worked for half a bushel a day. He has worked hard for 70 of his 80 odd years in building up Utah and is left penniless at his advanced age and having a hard time getting sufficient Old Age assistance to keep himself and his wife alive. If young people had to go through what he did in his youth they would look upon life in a different light. Hum-ble, plodding, faithful, he keeps the even tenor of his way. Our own brother Jim's young, est son Ray has been in the naval hospital at Farragut, Id-aho for over six months now. Regulations are such that his widowed mother cant visit him. Neighbor J. H. ' Keate came in on Monday and put a long green cover on our reception table, and gave us his word that there was not a person in town who got more inspiration out of the paper than he does. He has yards and yards of clippings from it. He has de-voted many years to studying crime and its cause and cure, and has written a voluminous plan for its prevention which, if adopted would banish all major crime from the country. All officials say: 'Yes, its good 'andwe'refor it, but " He has in mind a lottery scheme which would pay all govern-ment expenses and relieve peo-ple of taxes, To this the offi-cials also have a a big But. If he was 30 years younger, he's in the eighties, he would pu it over locally and nationally. Mrs. Ailene Barnes was in during i,he week and renewed and said she was keeping a scrapbook in which she pre-serves the good things she reads in this paper Her hus-band, Richard (Dick) Barnes, is a professional Baker, doing well in one of the city's largest bakeries. There are men on our list who are more reliable than the banks we deal with. One of thern is Friend and Neighbor Dr. J. Olin King, one of the citiy's leading Opticians. He is as prompt and faithful as the stars in their courses. He re-minds us of "the saint, the fath-er and the husband" in Burns' The Cotter s Saturday Night. The last we heard of our de linqnent subscriber who under went torture by the seven de-vils was that at the last ho was buried in quick lime to make sure he would never meet an-- . other newspaper man. hot FsirasTEdieeiis fc No, dear reader, the Siar Dust column appearing in this paper won't give you a bit of inlormatioa on astrology. But it will tell you a great deal of news about the stars of the movie firmament. Human interest news that reveals Hollywood's greatest luminaries as they really are. And the same is true of radio's topnotch performers. Warnings That Should Be Heeded " Lincoln once said that he trembled for the safety of the republic because of the rise of great corporations. Were he alive today he would have much greater fear which would arise from the race question, the labor question as well as from centralized wealth. Race rioting has shown its ugly head in several parts of the country, some places against negroes and some places against Jews, the latter having been begun in and near Boston in exactly the same manner that they began in Europe. These conditions are sure to grow worse until they become dangerous and destructive. It is by and through mobocracy that the constitution will be trailed in the dust and not by officials using it and dedicating it to human welfare. Any trouble coming from without might do some damage, but it is only from within, by its own people, that the body and soul of the U. S. A. can be destroyed. Better take warning and protective measures now than wait until mobs run riot all across the land. Don't let Lincoln's fears be realized nor Macauly's prediction about Huns and Vandals within be fulfilled. ... m IT Aimed at a Japanese Air Field itwr rnit j f,rrtWiWril&'rr amf rrr" " ;; American troops roll a 155 mm. field piece into position to shell the i Japanese-hel- d Munda air field across the channel.

Nemesis to Axis Aircraft The crew of a Flying Fortress sits on the scores of boxes of amm'u-itio- n which feeds through 12 or more machine guns during an average raid. So effective is this defense that the big forts have been able to fly through to objectives in the face of the most powerful fighter opposi-tion the Axis could muster. One crew member at right sits on a 2,000-pou- nd "block buster" bomb. Two Freedoms Will Fulfil Prophesy The first two of the Four Freedoms, freedom of speech and freedom of religion, are well established in this country, but not in most of the other countries. Not so wiih Freedom from want and freedom from fear. These two, when made to serve the people, will be the glad fulfillment of prophesy utter-ed centuriesago. They will make alive and working the words of the prophet Micah: "They shall sit every man under his own wine and fig tree; and none shall make them afraid." And of the words of the prophet Isaiah : "They shall not hurt or destroy." People had better strive for sufficient spiritual development to behold, the vis'on for it will be fulfilled to the letter. How can men who believe and quote these two pro-phesies set themselves against these freedoms? Future Must Belong to Common Man The world of the future must and will belong to the people. If it does not then the people will have suffered another be-trayal A country that can spend hundreds of billions for war purposes should be able to spend even more in order to establish a social order that would forever relegate poverty and war to the scrap heap. No longer must the genius and resources of the country be made to serve special groups and enrich a favored few. To let this go on will but mean a mul-tiplication of troubles If the leadership of the future lacks the ability to build a better social order than the present one then the masses must put aside such leadership and look to a better leadership. It would be the unpardonable sin of the ages to let this war end without preparing for the elimination of the conditions which male for aggression and unearned wealth. A new social order is the hope of the masses in every country. State Fair to Open Sept. 4. The Utah State Fair will be held September4 to 9, and will be one of the best ever.

Kodak Repairing Over 40 Years In SALT LAKE CITY, A Condition That Must Be Remedied. Here is something that must be changed everywhere if there is ever to be universal peace and justice. The boy king of Eaypt has an inherited fortune of $50,000,000 and an annual ' income of 5500,000, while the great mas? of people live in poverty and squalor and rarely have enough food and clothing for their minimum needs. A similar condition exists in every capitalistic country of the world and until it is changed there will never be a world fit for the common people to live in. If it is right for a man to gather all the wealth he can squeeze from his fellows then it is right for the big hog to eat the food away trom the weaker ones, and the big bull to stand guard over all the hay so the weaker ones get little or none. It is a fine game they have been playing with their brothers, the people, but their game is about up and there will be new cards and honest dealers. |
