NOTABLE ATTENDANCE
AT THE MEETING OF
SUNDAY SCHOOL UNION

At the meeting of the Deseret Sunday
Sunday School union held last evening
at the tabernacle the old officers of the
union were sustained. with the exception
of Thomas b. Evans, a member of the
general board, who had been honora bly,
discharged TO accept the presidency of a
stake. OF the fifty-siX stakes of the
church fifty-five were represented. which
is the best record of attendance made for
the last ten years.
After the Provo tabernacle choir had
sung Lead. Kindly Light" Apostle He
Der ]. Grant opened the meeting with
prayer. and Secretary George D. Piper
called the roll of stakes.
Joseph F. Smith was sustained as gen.
eral superintendent; George Reynolds as
first assistant general superintendent; d.
O. Mckay as second assistant general su-
perintendent; @. ID. Piper as general sec
rotary, and John F. Bennett as general
treasurer. The old general board of TWEEN
ty-nine members was also sustained. Miss
FAY Loose then sang a soprano solo.
David o. Mckay addressed the meeting
on the organization and functions of the
Deseret Sunday School union. Mr.. Nc

into three bodies, the general board, the
stake boards and the local boards. The
function of che general board is to rep
resent the first presidency in Sunday
school matters throughout the whole
world. and its decisions are final in all
matters. The stake boards represent the
presidency of the stakes in the same
manner. and the local boards represent
the bishopric of the wards in the same
way
After the Schubert quartet had sung.
Judge H. H. RViapp spoke on the duty
of parents in training their children. He
urged that the parents join the parents
classes of the Sunday schools that they
might learn the best way of putting their
children on the right path. Judge Rolapp
stated that parenthOOd was not only one
of the greatest blessings, but that it car
ried with it enormous responsibilities and
that these responsibilities ought TO be
borne by the parent personally. He said
that If this duty had been properly per-
formed by all parents il would not have
been necessary for the church to pledge
itself TO the cause of temperance, and
that parents who have merely given food,
shelter and other material gifts to their
children have in reality given them less
than nothing.
David Reese of Provo then sang a tenor
solo. and Professor ]. E. Talmage adj
dressed the meeting on the evils of spec
ulatiVe theology. He said that the sub
ject of theology was too sacred to be the
subject of argument and speculation.
Some things we DO know, he SAID, FOR
God has revealed them to us, but many
things we do not know and we have no
right to try and add to the revelations
which God has made"
He said that We are too prone to con
fuse facts with our own speculation and
that we are treading on dangerous ground
when we attempt to put words into God s
mouth. He advised that the Sunday school
teachers draw all truth from the word of
the Lord without attempting to add to
that word

BlUNDERS FROM
THE VERY FIRST

ton of Governor Cummins of Iowa as
Tafts running mate. and had he been
equal to his job he could have, and would
have done it. But he thought his tudg-
ment was better than that of the presi-
dent and Mr. Taft and he surrendered to
the anti-ROOsevelt crowd and acquiesced
by handcapping the Republican ticket,
for Sherman deserved no place in it.
That was Mr.. Hitchcock's first blunder
Since he was selected as chairman,
Hitchcock selected Dupont of the powder
trust-a man under fire in the federal
courts for violation of the antitrust law
to take charge of the speakers bureau
Had he been seasoned politician, he
would have known that the trust question
was to be one of the paramount issues
of the campaign. and he would not have
chosen a trust man for so prominent
place The removal of Dupont was a re-
buke on Hitchcock and would have in
duced a more sensitive man to resign.
Hitchcock blundered in another respect;
he started out to conduct the campaign
in the same manner that he was accus-
toned to conduct the office of first as
sistant postmaster general. He was go
ing to Card-index all voters in the United
States and appeal directly to each Re-
publican. He evidently had no idea of
the extent of the cost of such a scheme
and was astOnished to learn that it would
require $500. 600 to index the voters of Mas
sachuSetts alone. OF course, this scheme
was knocked in the head, and the time

Gus handicaps to the party in November
This was one Of the reasons why Senator
Crane of MasSa chusetts-foremost leader
of the anti-Roosevelt Republicans-was
called in and given virtual control of the
fight.
That the Republicans realize that they
are in serious straits is evidenced by the
fact that they have been obliged to COM
promise with such men as Senator Crane
men opposed to the Roosevelt policies.
and who would oppose their continuance
if Taft were elected. Having been obliged
to call upon Crane and men of his type
to pull them out of a hole. the Taft people
would be compelled. in the event of his
election, to make concessions TO these men
by way OF return for their services in the
present campaign. President Roosevelt
would never have consented TO putting
Crane in power were il not that he re-
allies the danger which confronts Taft.
Nor would he have become involved in an
unseemly correspondence with Mr.. Bryan
had he not believed that it was up to him
to save the Republican ticket.
All in all, the Republican managers
have made terrible mess of the cam
paign so far. and there is every indca-
ton now that Bryan will be the benefit
ciary.

Battle of Ballots Wages Merrily and

1t must be apparent to everyone who

that il was instituted and will be handled

Instead of bothering about such matters,
the hustlers who have entered the con-
test are cCngratulating themselves on the
opportunities presented and are going out
after the votes.
The p: esert week will be busy. The
competition for the four special prizes
ends Oct. 1C, next Saturday. The number
of votes polled by candidates at that time
will determine who shall own two SO
diamond rings and two $50 gold watches.
These prizes are now on eXhloitlon at

candidates outside the city, the usual dis

Among the leaders as the balloting now
stands are: Ellen Hansen of district a.
Mrs. G.. ID. Barton of district B, Hazel

Besides showing the wide range of in
terest in the contest. the present standing
shows that candidates in districts outside
Salt Lake City are making strong bid
early in the game. The standing also
indicates either that the ladies are be-
coming active earlier than the men or
that they are recording their votes more
promptly
Present standings indicate little. how
ever. The contest is young and one Will
losing Ihe lineup as it stands today
may te changed in an hour. 1t is no Sc
cIet to the managers of the contest that
many candidates will soon be securing
votes in large quantities. Every day un-
til Oct. 81 will mark the lineup of addi-
tional candidates, for the home stretch
to win the big prizes.
As votes cast before next Saturday will
have greater counting value than later
ones and as the special prize distribution
will be settled that day. it is regarded
as certain that many dark horses VIII
come into the light before this week
closes.
Candidates should not forget that votes
may be secured by selling advertising cou-
pom books as well as by securing sub
scriptions for the paper. Sales of cou-
pom books have practically the same rela-
tive value as subscriptions and their value
is subject TO the same conditions. Can
didates cannot afford to overlook this fea-
ture of the contest. The Heralds clas-
sified advertising columns are literally
patroniZed every day and as the adver-
tiser saves money by using the coupon
book, candidates can easily favor their
friends as well as themselves by pushing
the sale of the coupon books.

After the choir had sung Peace, Be
Still" Apostle Heber J. Grant spoke. He
said:
Il am pleased at having the opportunity
of meeting with so many of the Latter

was panied to note that the Latter-day
Saints were becoming careless in the OBJ
servance of the Word of Wisdom. |. with
others of the church. have urged the ne
cessity of returning to this law of God.
Many of the Latter-day Saints think that
small matter but l do not believe that it
is a slight affair to do what God has COM
manded us not to do. The saving accru-
ing from the following of this law would
be greater than the profits OF the sugar
industry in this state. The Latter-day
Saints spend enough every year on liquor
to build two sugar factories and maintain
them. There are many of you who have
always advocated the observance of this
law. Thank the Lord, We have the right
to stamp out the use of liquor. provided
we make up our minds to do it. / deny

Mr.. Grant then proceeded to read
number of extracts dealing with the hor
rOrs of intemperance from Leaves of an
Old Lawyer and also from the "Adver-
tisement of an Honest Saloon Keeper"
and from a monograph by David Starr
Jordan on The Strength of Being Clean"

Resolution Is Adopted.

After commenting on these extracts and
stating that every church family should
determine to prevent the promotion OF
crime by putting down the saloons, Mr.
Grant continued
I'VE of the Church of Latter-day Saints

ability, and the surest road to this end is
to follow the Word of Wisdom. / endorse

track after the close of the state fair.

matter under consideration, and if it is

races will probably be held.

Apostle Anthony WINS then addressed
the congregation. He said that those
wishes of God which do not come as a
direct command are nevertheless binding
on Gods people. In order to comply with
Gods law. repentance is necessary and
the fOrsd king of all Unrighteousness. He
said that il was necessary that they be
born of the spirit in order to enter
heaven. He announced that he did not
believe in coercion. That We ought to
obey the law because we love it, and not
because il threatens penalties He felt
that the greatest mission of the church
is TO teach righteousness for the love of it,

congratulations and best wishes for
long continued marital happiness and

by amusements and were Hospitality

and most enjoy able evening was spent

August Gulckson and his wife. whose
name was Berit Berge, have resided in
the town of Liberty for more than fifty

criminal case. This is what the Com
mission did with us in spite of the fran
chise under which the Gas company has
thrived, prospered and made money.
The arbitrary charge of twenty five
cents month will amount to SiS00 a
year and the increase on the cost of gas
for fuel will amount to approximately
$4,000. 1t is quite astounding. The
dear people are certainly getting the
benefits of reform legislation.
l have been told that some of the
members of the commission have said
that they have had too much business
from Manitowoc. The city has filed
just one complaint and that was against
the quality of service of the Electric
Light Co. This complaint has been on
file one year and four months, yet no
order has been entered. The decision
in the Gas Co. case was on the complaint
of the company. The city in answer
asked that the company comply with
its franchise.

The opposition to the proposed open
ing of piece of road about 23 of a
mile in length between section Z of Cen

continues.
The Meeme members of the joint
board resisted the opening, creating a
dead lock, from which an appeal was
made to appraisers appointed through
the County Judges office, who ordered
the road opened. The Meeme members
are still inactive and lawyers assert that
they have no course left but to comply
and open the road and that in the event
of further dilatory tactics they can by
a court order be forced to proceed with
the work. The situation is interesting

BE HONEST; IT PAYS.

A first and most important trait going
to make the ideal character is that of in
tegrity. Integrity is to be true IN deed,
word and thought. Perhaps no one is
at all times and on all occasions perfect
ly honest. But honesty should be our
aim and we should live up to it rs near
ly as possible. Shakespeare says: mo
legacy is 80 rich as honesty"
There is tendency to say pleasing
but insincere things; to make use of
what we call white lies," meaning
thereby harmless untruths. The occa-
sions when they are justifiable are few
and far between. 1t might happen tina,
in case of sickness life or reason might
be endangered by revealing the entire
truth. But one should be quite certain
that lie then il better than truth The
untruth is frequently told when the
truth would serve the purpose better.
We are often tempted to pretend
thinking to gain in the estimation OF
others. 1t is very useless kind of dis
honesty. Our pretenses are seen through
and we gain contempt where we wished
esteem. There are some who try to see
how far they can deceive others aud moi
be found out They are always found
ont soon or late and lose the respect and
confidence Of the community.
Let yourself be known TO be honest
and you will have the respect Of all ev
en- the dishonest opes, az well rs your
own self respect.
Let us be more and more careful (,
form habits Of truthfulness. Young

take part in active life, cultivate hon

If you occupy positions Of trust, make
