A GREATER AND
GRANDER CACHE VALLEY
y.

This has been propitious week
for Logan. Not only for Logan but
Cache Valley. The succeeding series
of events have followed each other
in such rapid sequence that view
ing them retrospectively, we. find our
selves wondering II they be really
true.
Beginning Tuesday with the grand
reception rendered by the Daughters
of the Pioneers to those two worthy
and well loved women, Mrs. Isaac
Smith and Mrs. Sarah Farr, and
which was the occasion for one OF
the most pleasant gatherings ever
held at the Boosters club rooms, and
up to the end of the week II has been
one gay round OF felicitation and gen.
eral rejoicing.
On Wednesday afternoon Mr..
Marshall the genial proprietor OF the
Eagle Hotel inaugurated a new era
in the business and social life Of
Cache Valley, when eighty of the in.
fluential and more prominent men
of Logan met around the festive
board, in response to his invitation
And when, in response to sugges.
ton, those men arose as one irdi.

close to his companion on the left.
so as to form complete and perfect
union, they repeated in concert, the

Valley" new order of things was
there established. There persisted al.
vision, disharmony, fault-finding, car.
ping, and complaining,a and every MAJ
felt the new blood of true progress
coursing riotously through his veins.
II was without doubt one of the most
dramatic moments In the life of most
OF them, and its results will be seen
in the added zest with which each
OF them will now set himself to work
for the upbuilding and general well
fare of our glorious valley.
But the story does not end there
for An the evening of that same day
the Commercial Boosters club gave
an open house" reception to Mr..
Eccles. And with what response!
delegations from well nigh every
town in the valley were there. Up
from Hyrum came Mayor Allen and
