PRESIDENT OF UINTAH
STAKE Is FOR HARMONY

The peace and harmony which marks
the intercourse of the Mormon settlers
in the Gintah basin with their Gentle
nelEhbOrS is in marked contrast with the
spirit we breathe here in the central city
of Zion according to W. II. Smart. pres
ident of the Uintah stake, who addressed
the conference yesterday forenoon Ell
der Smart spoke of the great future of
the valley and said that the work was
progressing favOrably there He de-
scribed infinitely the topography of the
country and told of its resources and
treasures.
Apostle George Teasdale in a short ad-
dress denied that the church is dominated
by the priesthood. You cannot make me
believe he said, that this intelligent
and GOd-fearing congregation does not
implicitly believe in the creed of Mormon
ism and does not absolutely know that
the doctrine revealed to those diVinelv
inspired amongst us are true

which have beset the church from the
outside and said in this connection: Il

to the community is the wonderful
success which the association has
achieved In discovering local needs and
the close adaptation Of the education
it provides to meet those needs. The
association has been a pioneer in more
than one educational enterprise
The assimilation of foreigners who
come into American communities has
always been a serious problem in tie
minds of all public spirited men. The
y. VI. {. A. is doing its share toward
the solution of this problem by insti-
tuting special classes of study for these
men at minimum cost. in order to
qualify them for citizenship. The story
of Christie" is an example.
Christie is q Macedonian who escaped
beyond the Turkish borders by night,
shipped in a Grecian vessel for Amer
lea and worked as a common labOTer in
a number Of eastern cities before com
ing to- Salt Lake City. He was only a
street worker when he came to the
educational director last July. but he
had high ambitions He was deter
mined to get an education. He insisted
on having a private teacher during the
summer. and enrolled when school
opened in the fall for a full course.

BEST MEN REQUIRED
FOR MISSIONARY FIELD

The need of men for the missionary
field who are qualified for the work was
els NJ LYMAN. The speaker urged that
the stakes send TO the presidency and
the quorum vigorous men who are fitted
for the foreign field. Apostle Lyman said
that he did not want men who have TO
be taught every tenet of the faith and
the method of expOunding it by the high
er officials: he hoped that the teaching
would be done at home, through expert
ence and by precept. We want you to
send us for this work men in good con-

other matters pertaining to the welfare OF
the church are brought Up and discussed
by the representatives chosen by the
members and often discussions Of the
most serious character arise because of
this privilege Of free speech. Reports of
the various church organizations are
read and discussed at these meetings.

URGES MODERATION
IN WORLDLY PLEASURES

The excessive indulgence in the So
called pleasures of life was rOundly de-
rounced by Apostle John Henry Smith
at yesterday afternoons session of the
general conference 2 MfT Smith followed
quite closely the remarks of Apostle Hy-
rum Smith on the same subject on Satur-
dav. Roller skating Kinks were con-
demned as places unfit for the children
of the people of Zion. Parents should by
all means prevent their sons and daugh-
tiers from attending resorts that open the
gates OF the road to the Downward course.
The use of tobacco and intoxicating liquor
was bitterly scored. In fact Apostle Smith
declared that worldly pleasures must be
INDUCED in only with due regard to their
relation TO ones spiritual welfare.
