EAST BELFAST CHURCH FAIR. The
ladies of East Belfast held sale, supper and
entertainment in the Belfast Opera House
on the afternoon and evening of Dec. 9th.
There were an unusual number of tables,
all of which were filled with useful or fancy
things which were so moderate in price that
they found a ready sale. The candy booth
was prettly decorated with red and ever
greens over foundation of white drapery.
A large number sat down to delicious sup
per at 6 O'Clock. In the evening Rev. VIM
Vaughan, the pastor. took the opportunity
to thank the people of Belfast for their help
and patronage and everybody who had
done anything toward making the fair a
success. He gave a review of the situation
of affairs as regards the church building.
saying that they had the foundation dug,
cellar walls laid and pointed and 5O-foot
drain made and covered, with the expendi
ture of $40 in money. The three ladies'
societies had raised by SupperS, sales, etc
$500. and Mr.. Vaughan's former parish
Oners in the tenement house district in
New York city had raised another $500 and
by contributions, excursions, etc., the
amount in hand was almost $780, Mr..
vaughan sald That 1t was his hope that the
proceeds Of the fair would raise the amount
to $1,000 and everybody in the audience
echoed his hope Mr.. Bert L. Davis gave
his solo "Hey, Mr. Joshua" in costume, by
request, and met an enthusiastic reception.
Then the ladies presented the farce "The
Old Maids Club" which was very success
fully carried out: The costumes and por-
trayai of the different types of spinster-
hood were excellent and met with deserved
applause. The two young men in the cast
both took their parts very creditably and
the specialties introduced by the members
of the club were all enjoyed. The enter
talnment was very successful one from
specially amused at the hits which were re-
ceived by some of the we'll known bachel-
Ors in this vicinity. There was a large au
dience present in the evening, and they
were not back ward about expressing their
approval in generous applause.

LIVE QUESTION

That the liquor question has been
threshed for the past 100 years is not
sufficient reason for abating the fight
now. Familiarity with unfortunate
conditions ought to arouse sympathy
for the victims of those conditions,
but it should serve to heighten rather
than take the keen edge from the fight
in behalf of those who may yet be en-
shared. The liquor question is one of
the most serious that Logan, Cache
county and the entire country has to
deal It'll today 1t is question for
every man and every woman; for every
boy and every girl in this land to con.
slider. 1t is a question that every
father should be able to bring lntelli.

we may be to state it, that every
mother should discuss with hel

| to the male sex alone.

The Cause Of II.

The REPUBLICAN,, however, sought
a solution of this peculiar showing and
found 1t In the statement OF City
Supt. A. F. Carbon. He says that
in truth Logan has much larger
school population this year than last,
but in some manner not wholly eX-
plainable the enumerators failed to
record the entire number of children
of school age. Supt. Carbon is certain
that fifty names that should be
on the books were missed. This
discrepancy is particularly noticeable
in the Third ward. Regardless of the
extreme care that is taken, it 10
possible to secure all the names and
this year there proved a rcgrettable
shortage. 1t will be remembered that
the school census is usually taken in
July. In many instances parents are
out of the city, here, there and else.
where and it is impossible for the
enumerator to make a correct list.
Just how the extraordinary difficulty
this year came about is not wholly
apparent, yet we may accept Mr.. Car
don's assurance that our school
population has in reality gone up con
siderably instead Of decreasing.

Another Feature.

1t may be interesting to the public
TO know that the number given below
does not represent the total number
of children taking advantage OF our
city school system. There are good
~ number Of children who pay tuition
and these are not included below.
These are children of parents who
own no property and pay no taxes
Then there are those children OF
parents who pay taxes elsewhere but
come to Logan to send their children
to school. These are quite number

considerably larger total than that
below.

Up to Individual.

The law may place some restrictions
on the traffic but the best way is for
the boys and girls, the men and wo-
men to resist the evil wherever and
whenever it may be found. Resist
ance is by far the nobler and better
way to overcome the evil. Let every
man take an interest in the welfare OF
the boys and girls-encourage them
in the ways Of right and sober living.
If possible provide for them the neces-
sary amusements to offset the tempta-
tions of the Pool Room, the Bar, etc,
1T is good thing to live in town
like Logan where so little corruption
exists and where we have so many
public spirited men anxious at all
Times to help the young people along
the ways of life.

glowing description of Utah and her

writer, one w. c. Fitzpatrick, does
not attempt to touch on "Lhe fight in

the question for the people OF Logan
and the country to consider, not that
we have such distressing or alarm

fatal results that may accrue from the

A Bad Showing.

A peculiar and unsatisfactory state
of affairs seems to be revealed by the
figures given, as the county is credited
with IA less in school population and
Logan is given as 10 less than that of
last year. Supt. McCarrey was sur
prised at this showing and naturally
the public will be, for it has been gen.
orally considered that Logan's popula.
ton has been on the increase rather
than decrease.

We thank thee for Autumn when harvest time come,
When the bounties of earth are all gathered home.
