Some pious people of all religious members of their own church can go 10 heaven. If that is piety then char. ity and piety seem to he two different things.
 Let us suppose for a moment that such were the case and let us pick out any church in the world and we shall ind that If heaven has anything like the dimensions we suppose 1t has it will be an awfully difficult place in which To meet friend. The other place will be a continuous mass meet ing of citizens.
 There IS no disrespect in thinking and speaking of such things for our selves unless we wilfully desire 10 be disrespectful. Religion and churches have saved us from savagery and. whether we are religious or not. their existence will always exert a refining influence on us.
 But there is nothing refining. or pious or even pleasant in believing that some of our best friends will be toasted eternally while we flop around on wings 10 the music of Seraphic choirs. All religions mean well but the best religion Of all is the religious be- lief that the other fellow has a much right 10 his opinion as you have to yours. To believe anything else is to be an idiot and bigot.

Apache, Navajo, Coconino, Mo-

BILE by the recent extra sesSionOf

program and his estimates indi.
Gates that at least $2500 in prizes
will be offered.
Premium lists and other adver.
tiisng matter will be on the road
to all parts of Northern Arizona

Gone But Not Forgotten.

Mr.. and Mrs. d. L. Penrod
and family laid to rest the re-
mains of their darling baby boy,
Coils Clyde Penrod aged one
year, four months and eight days.
He was born at our happy home
April 26, 1912, living happily
with us until illness o'ertook him
and he was taken with Cholera
infantum for one month and
eleven days. We worked hard
to save the precious one and
thought for a few days, he was
improving some when on Aug
ust 20, my mother went to see
the lady doctor, Mrs. Key, who
had been doctoring before and
since July 22, when upon July %
we called doctor by the name
of DR.. Conner, who was up at
White River fishing, but seemed
to do no good, really more harm
than good, and on August 20,
when mother made her visit
with Coils, Mrs. K. M. Key and
mother fully decided that he was
a great deal worse, on returning
to our home twas very bad and
sad news when Mother informed
US of his change being for the
worse. She informed Mother to
get some medicine from Holbrook
Drug store, which we did but
were altogether too late. He
kept on getting worse and Sat-
urday, August 80, Mrs. K. M.
Key, Mr.. and Mrs. J. w. Adair
and Mr.. and Mrs. Len Galway
stayed with us. And September
End, baby died at $50 P. M.
We were also informed that it
was his teething that kept him
SO poor. Before he was taken
sick he would weigh no less than
thirty pounds. At best when he
died the poor baby would have
weighed no more than ten or
twelve pounds. 1t was his first
sick spell but at last he was ia
ken from us, and laid to rest.
Where we hope that he is not
suffering or at least, is without
pain.

VxTuV not give your lad
w IL / the same training? =?

when / was n growing Lad, and came
upon many words in my reading that
i did not understand, my mother. In
stead of giving me the definition when
applied to her, uniformly sent me to
the dictionary to learn 1t, and in this
way gradually learned many things
besides the meaning of the individual
word in QuestiOn--am0ng other things,
how to use a dictionary, and the great
pleasure and advantage there might
be in the use of the dictionary.
Afterwards, when went to the village
school, my chief diversion, after les
sons were learned and before they
were recited, was in turning over the
pages of the Unabridged of those
days. Now the most modern Una
bridged- -theNEW INTERNATIONAL
gives me pleasure of the same sort.
So far as my knowledge extends, it is
at present the best of the One-voIume
dictionaries, and quite sufficient for
all ordinary uses. Even those who
possess the splendid dictionaries in
several volumes will yet find it a great
convenience to have this, which is so
compact, so full, and so Trustworthy
as to leave, in most cases, little to be
desired. - Albert s. Cook, Phi. D., LID,

Smith FAMILY
HELD A REUNION

On Saturday, September 9th,
all the family and descendants of
President Jesse N. Smith held a
Reunion in> the Social H all.
Jesse N. Smith was one of the
original pioneers of Utah, of 1847,
having landed in the Salt Lake
Valley in the fall of that year.
| He was then a lad of only twelve
years, but he drove his widowed
mothers OK team across the
plains from Nauvoo, a distance
of about 1,500 miles. President
Smith filled two missions of six
years each to Denmark, and
there learned the Danish Ian
guage so we'll that he could
speak better than the natives
themselves and was able to cor
rect them on the Danish Gram
mar. He served in the Legisla-
lures of Utah and Arizona; was
one of the early pioneers of this
country; and was President of
the Snowflake Stake until he
died.
The birthday of President
Smith was December, End, 1884.
But the Reunion was held on the
9Th, Of this month as that was a
more favorable time for the meet
ing, and was also the birthday of
| two of President Smith S children,
Joseph w. Smith and Margaret
Smith Jensen.
President Smith was one of
the prominent old school mem
bers of the Mormon Church. At
time of his death had forty-four
children. There are living to-
day, thirty-seven children; and
one hundred and sixty-eight
grand children; and forty-eight
great grand children, making a
total of two hundred fiffy-three
living descendants. One hun
dred fifty-six were present at
the Reunion.
All of President Smiths de-
scendants are industrious and
thrifty. None have ever been
arrested for crime of any kind,
and all have led virtuous and up
right lives, and his descendants
are numbered among our most
prominent and progressive citi-
zens. At the Reunion his de-
scendants resolved that they
would try to emulate the good
example of their progenitor and
would also do all they could to
help and support other family
names and to be loyal to other
family titles and to their good
efforts for progressive American
citizenship, as we'll as in being
loyal to the Smith name; for, as
President Samuel F. Smith point
ed out, all families are loyal to
themselves by being good, gen
erous and loyal to others.
being good, generous, and loyal
One of the speakers made men
tion of the fact that there was
not dog in the family, which
statement had triple meaning.
The program consisted of an
informal meeting in the morning,
a banquet, exercises in the after
noon, and also lively entertain
ment in the evening.
A jolly, pleasing, and lively spir-
it prevailed during the entire re-
union and each and all voted it
the best one ever held.

Congress will be given a chance to
decide whether it wants icebergs to
continue destroying our big steam
vessels or not. A bill has been intro
duced calling for a government COM
mission to study the feasibility of
constructing a huge jetty across the
Grand Banks of New Foundland. Back
of this jetty the current would deposit
sand and form a ridge extending for
200 miles to the east of Cape Race.
This would shift the current SO that the
warm gulf stream and the cold Labra-
dor current would commingle melting
the ice in the latter and eliminating
icebergs not only from the region of
the Grand Banks, but also from the
entire Attic circle. Greenland would
be transformed into a garden and Eng
land would be surrounded by a current
as warm as the Caribbean sea. The
work will cost the governmentG$2O,-
600. 600 if taken up.
