Statistics prove that % percent of
mortgages are made to increase the
original property holdings, and not
because of financial reverses on the
part of the mortgagor. In this country
where practically every farm Is mort
gagged this percentage will run to 100
practically. 1t is the boast of the
Utah Mortgage Loan association that
it has never had but one foreclosure
in all its history. This company has
thousands of mortgages in this State,
Idaho and Wyoming and in practically
every instance money has been loaned
for the purpose of enabling the mort
gagor to buy more land, cattle, fiocks,
or to engage in business. A mortgage
in this country is sign of prosperity.

The Class Farce.

The "farce" given by the class Of
1908 at the big auditorium Monday
evening was remarkably successful, in
that the acting was done with an
abondon and naturalness that was
very delightful. The farce, founded as
it was, on school pranks, offered OPP
portunity for lively fun and ridiculous
situations and the participants carried
the affair off in the best Of style.
The scene is laid in the dormitory
Of one of our bigger Eastern schools,
and the plot involves the carrying out
of dinner party idea. Spreads" out
of hours were strictly forbidden-but
to college girls this makes little differ
ence, you know, so the affair was
proceeded with. The inevitable hap
pened of course-Prof. Edgerton, the
"chief cook" got onto the racket and
smiling TO himself concluded he would
put quietus upon the affair in about
the proper way. The girls had bor-
rowed an enormous basket, into which
provisions procured in the city were
to be drawn up to their room. The
signal for the basket to be hoisted
was a whistle .and Of this Prof. Edger-
ton was aware. At the proper time
that worthy gets into the basket and
gives the signal. Up went the elevator,
but unfortunately for the Professor,
his deception was discovered about
the time he was two stories from the
ground and yet two more to the win
dow sill that was to be the destination
of all the goodies the girls had prepar-
ed. His captors "didn't do thing to
him" but keep him hanging there I'M
til he promised to forgive them and
even join in the merry-making. The
mistress of the establishment also got
onto the racket and was also captured
and caused to join in the fun. OF
course representatives of the male fra
ternity were on hand to help things
along and the 'spread" was carried
out to perfection.
The large audience present was very
enthusiastic over the production and
applauded vociferously.

In justice to the travelling public
we are constrained to say to the rail-
road company that their handling of
the early train from Cache Junction
to this city is not at all satisfactory to
the passenger traffic. Parties who
are on this train necessarily have to be
up all night on the main line, and are
therefore anxious to reach Logan as
soon as possible In order to procure
the needed rest. Especially does this
apply to ladies who have two or three
children with them. We believe the
railroad company should have this
train pulled right into the Logan sta
tion, unload the passengers and the
switching done afterwards. There Il
no necessity of having the worn out
passengers lay on the main track with
in the skirts of the city until the sugar
factory business is attended to-

1t is sincerely hoped that the
weather here will behave itself prop

experience and present indications
lead to the belief that there Will be

is what we want. Will chief
weather renovator Hyatt please arise
to the occasion and give us the de-
sired article.

Corianton.

One of the largest theatres in San
Francisco, where Corianton was pre-
sented, has purchased an Estey Piano.
The Auditing and Supply Commit
tee Of public schools st. Louis reports
that they have given much time and
careful consideration to the merits of
the several pianos offered, and recon-
mends that the award for furnishing
seventy-fve Pianos be given to the
Estey Piano Co. Thirty-six different
pianos including all of the leading
makes were in competition.
The second largest music house in
the United States, which handles ten
different makes of pianos and has the
pick Of the worlds production, says:
"The Estey Pianos are the best pianos
made for S400 cash.
Any individual purchaser, by care

1t is estimated that not less than
1000 visitors will be in Logan next
Monday and Tuesday. Are you going
to leave that old broken down wagon
in the front yard for these visitors to
see? viii you leave your premises
overgrown with weeds for their editi-
cation? Won't you nail on a picket
or two, and also tie the family COW to
the back fence rather than the front
veranda? Won't you try to do every
thing that will tend to give everyone
pleasant impression of our charming
little city? Look after these little
matters and it will greatly improve
things.

The visitors who will be with us
Sunday and Monday should not
neglect to visit the great schools To-
Gated here. The b. Y. c., the Church
school, is one Of the greatest in the
state. 1t is a handsome structure,
containing all the appliances, furni-
ture and fixtures incidents to great
school and has the best gymnasium in
the state. The grounds are extensive
and very pretty, and as a whole the
institution is well worth the inspec-
ton of every stranger. The A. c. of
U. located on the Hill at the base of
the Eastern mountains Is mass of
elegant architecture, and from there
the finest view of the valley is obtain
able. The buildings and grounds are
even more extensive than those of the
b. Y. c., and should not be passed by.

A movement is on foot in the Canadi-
an house of parliament to change the
name of Hudson's Bay. There is a
bin now pending in the house dealing
on the matter. The bill provides that
in the future this large body of water
shall be named the Canadian sea,

is entirely surrounded by Canadian
possessions. The bill also provides
that the strait connecting the bay
with the Atlantic Ocean shall be
named Hudson's strait.

The principal of Chicago school
gives this result of three years investi-
cation: In one school l25 boys were
addicted to the cigarette habit: % Of
those confessed that they were too
sleepy to study; 80 of them said they
were dizzy after smoking; - could not
write neatly because their hands
trembled, and several said they felt
"shaky' when they walked. 1t was also
shown that the cigarette habit gradu'
ally blunted the moral sensibilites OF
the boys, making them deceptive, secre
tive and uatruthful.

The universal expression in regard
TO the graduating exercises at the diff.
ferent schools this year is that they
were entirely too long in every in
stance. The addresses to the gradu-
ates, while recognized as being of
great worth, containing helpful
thought and noble sentiment, were
tiresome in their length and should
have been boiled down. Elaboration
of thought is well enough, but when
carried to too great length becomes
tiresome and the eject is limited
thereby. These are truths that do
not sound we'll, but must and will
eventually be recognized by public
speakers.
