ALL IN READINESS
FOR PIONEER DAY
One of the Greatest Celebra-
tons in History Of State to
Be Held Thursday.

While it is true that the greatest Pi"
oneer day celebration ever held in the
state of Utah was that which took
place on July "a, 1897, it is also a fact
that next to this in brilliance and con-
sistency will be that OF next Thurs
day.
There was a reason for the greatness
of the 1897 celebration, because that
year marked tho emi-centennlal annl-
versary of the incoming of pioneers
TO this valley. 1t was made the occa-
sion Of great Jubilee commemoration.
From all parts of Utah came the peo-
splendid local military bands Of the
first class, and ranging down from
these in different degrees OF profici-
ency were the bands from Ogden,
Provo, Logan End other towns in the
state. Wherever there was a little
band, no matter how humble OF char
acter, it came to the big Jubilee cele-
bration. In addition 20 these were al"
most innumerable features depicting
the pioneer ingress and the daily life
scenes and experiences of the early
pioneer years. Also thero was the Hall
of Relics, which stood where the Des-
eret News building now is, in which
were exhibited the remaining mechan'
ical devices which played a part In
the settlement and development of the
community which has now grown into
a great commonwealth.
However, on next Thursday the cele-
bration is to be quite as interesting as
that of 1897 in its special features,
some Of which will even be an i'm
provement upon those of the Jubilee
event. The first pioneer train is to be
reproduced as nearly as possible, with
the addition of such modern process
sion devices as Will make the pageant
attractive and at the same time impres.
sive. 1t is the object Of the Sons and
Daughters of Utah Pioneers to render
the Pioneer day celebration a perma-
nent annual institution. and this even
tuation will largely depend upon the
success Of next Thursdays showing.
For that reason every effort, consider
ing the brief time for preparation, is
being turned toward producing some
thing of character that will impress
citizens with the Importance Of the
celebration. All who have been called
upon to contribute toward its success
have responded cheerfully and readily,
and on that account the day is certain
to be marked for its faithful depletion
of the event of July "a, lS47. and of
the growth of the commonwealth dur
ing the sixty six wears which have
elapsed since that time.

evil was new and novel to the world.
Heretofore evil had been met with
reprisals and retrlbutions, pains ana
penalties, Christianity substituted
