IL BOOKS ~
Buchanan's
Wife
By Jrstrs Miles Forr4an

Suppose you were woman
young, loving, alive-and your
family had broken your engage
ment to the man you loved in
order to marry you to rich man
who was rather a brute; and sup
pose that your husband suddenly
disappeared and left no trace. If
something then happened that
convinced every one but yourself
that he was dead, and your lover
wanted you to marry him, what
would you do?
This is the climax that Justus
Miles Forman sl1illfully leads up
to in his new novel. Then
startling turn takes place. and in
cident after incident carries the
reader along in rush of surprise
and wonderment to the very end
The story OF a woman's fight for
love has never been better told.
Il is masterpiece of story-tell-
ing.

HE MAKES WAR ON MUD
Supervisor Tackles Streets Surround
ing City and County
Building,

J. r Raleigh, street supervisor has at
last begun the long neglected task of
placing the streets surrounding the city
and county building square in passable
condition. These streets. Fourth and
Fifth South streets. from State to Second
East street, and State and Second East
streets from Fourth to Fifth South street
have been an eyesore and a disgrace to
the city all through the winter.
The city and county building has been
an island in a sea of muG and much has
been carried by teams and vehicles to the
State street pavement in such quantities
that a gang of street cleaners has been
kept busy for several hours day al
most every day to keep the crossings in
anything like a passable condition.
A contract has been let for the paving
of State street. but the work cannot be
done by the contractor until spring.
Crushed rock is being hauled from the
city's quarry. by the rOck-cars of the
Utah Light and Railway company. and
dumped i'm the street. This rock is being
leveled off in the street, and the mud is
being covered to a depth of several
inches.
