R|VERT0N FOLK
ARE PROGRESSIVE
One of Most Prosperous Com
munitieS in State Lies Ad-
jacent to Salt Lake.

One of the most prosperous districts
in Utah is in the vicinity of Riverton,
in the southern part of Salt Lake
county. Although there are only about
100 families there and the total popula-
ton is said to be not more than 600.
public improvements are under way
which will cost about $4,000. II Salt
Lake were spending money for i'm
prOyements in the same proportion 10
its inhabitants it would mean the eX-
penditure of S75,000,000-
Riverton put in a new $4,000 water
system, has a meeting house under con-
struetion which will cost from $4,000
to $50 900, and has commenced work
upon a new school house which will cost
S25, 900. In addition to these undertake
ings the residents of RiVerton are en-
gagged upon several important private
undertakings, one of which is a dry
farming enterprise. The wheat crop
from 600 acres of dry farming land at
the edge of the Riverton settlement is
now being harvested.
The present public school OF Riverton
is a brick structure OF a much better
type than is TO be found in most places
of the size of Riverton. The new sehooi
building is to be commodious and thor
oughly modern. II Will be situated IN
the center of an open space, so that
there will be plenty of light and sun
shine from all the outside windows. But
in addition TO this there will be court
in the center of the building so that all
the cIassrooms will receive light from
windows facing the court as well as
those facing outward. The concrete
foundation of the school building mas
been completed.
The new meeting house is almost mn
ished. The high dome of the building
can be seen for miles around Rlverton
and is used as a LANDMARK by travellers
upon the roads. In the top of the dome
is an observation station from winch
a wide view of the surrounding country
can be obtained.
On the ground floor will be the sun
dav school room. Above this, reached
nv two flights of steps. one on each size
of the entrance to the Sunday schoo'
room will be the main assembly room.
The interior of the dome, which arches
over the assembly room, has been
beautifully tinted and decorated. The
building is of brick and stone, with nu-
merous exterior architectural emoeiiisH-
ments.
| The Riverton water system at present
| contains ten miles of piping, Iour anu d
half miles of four-inch pipe; one ana Il
half miles of three-inch pipe ana tne
remainder two-inch pipe. ConslderaDiy

water to all of the Riverton homes
