crowd to town on account of the regular
county court day, but trading was
rather dull in all lines of stock. al

been busy and all were pleased with
the days result. Mules were more in

MOST NOVEL PEACE MOVE

The Norwegian liner Bergensfjord
with Henry Ford on board. sailed for
New York Dec. "a Mr.. Ford stated
before leaving Bergen that the peace
expedition would continue under the
auspices of the Woman's international
Peace Association.
The invitation to Norwegian friends
of peace to join the party met with no
response. The Christiania papers ex-
press doubt that representative Nor
wegian would accept the invitation.
The press and public are unanimous
in giving praise - Ford for his good
will and high idealism. The newspap-
ers call him "a most congenis gen
tleman," but regret that he has not
consulted experts on international law.
The gentle opinion voiced is that the
mission will do little toward promoting
peace negotiations
His departure from Europe apparently
marks the termination. in it's original
form, of the post novel of the many
movements which have been under
taken TO bring about the ending OF the
war.

Before leaving, Mr.. Ford gave a

that il was impossible to make head

FOUNDER OF CHURCH
Mrs. Ellen G. White, Head
of Seventh Day Adven-
fists, Dies

Mrs. Ellen G. White died at St.
Helena, CAL, Friday, July 10th,
aged SO years.
Mrs. Ellen G. White was one of
the founders of the denomination
known as Seventh Dav Adventists.
She was one of the converts of Will
lam Miller, who, in the early '40s
aroused thousands to a belief iE the
speedy advent or second coming of
Christ. According to information
given out by the North American
division conference of the Seventh
Day Adventists, Mrs. White was
considered by practically all Seventh
Day Adventists as their prophecies.
Born in Gorham, Cumberland
county, Maine, November 26, 1927,
she had lived to the advanced age
of SO years. Her name was Ellen
Gould Harmon, and she was one of
eight children, who, like their par
ents, became staunch Methodists in
New England. At the age of nine
years the girl, who had shown re-
markab,e mental powers, was struck
in the face by stone which school
mate, in sheer wantoness, had
thrown at her, fracturing the nasal
bone and resulting in almost fatal
illness and permanent Disagreement.
The calamity, which made ner al
most unrecognizable among her
friends, wore upon her heart, and
she turned with great yearning to
the worship of Christ.
In March, 1870, she first heard
William Miller, Baptist evangelist,
tell of the second coming of Christ,
which he was then predicting for
lS43. She was greatly stirred by
the eVangclisL's message, and con-
secralcd her life towards spreading
it, and as she claimed in December,
1914, God gave her a vision of the
second coming of Christ, and added
as her Interpretation of the Bible
that it was her duty to observe the
Seventh Day Sabbath, as she be-
lieved it was so observed by Christ.
She and her husband, whom she
married about this time and who
was one of the believers, therefore
began the observance of the seventh
day and taught this in their meet
ings, which eventually were held all
over the country. While they be-
lieved that Christ's coming was
near, they did not believe that men
knew the date of the event, and so
never taught or had any sympathy
with 'time-settings." Her hus-
band was James White, lineal de-
scendant on his fathers side of
Peregrine White, born on the May
flower, in the harbOr of Cape Cod,
before the Pilgrims had made their
homes in the wilderness. Mr.. White
died in 1881, but Mrs. White kept
on with her revelations.
She leaves two sons, James Edison
White, of Marshall, Mich, and
William C. White, who was the
companion and helper of his mother
since the fathers death.
On February l3, 1915. Mrs. White
met with a severe accident at her
home near st. Helena, Cal. She
tripped and fell, breaking the bone
in her left thigh.

UTAH AT SAN DIEGO
Mormon State Party Royalty
Entertained at Panama
California Exposition

A drill and review of the Salt
Lake City High School Cadets at the
Plaza de Panama in the Panama
California Exposition furnished the
feature of the first day of the three
days visit of Gov. William Spry, of
Utah, Thursday, July 18th.
The boys drilled like veterans and
the crowd was liberal with its ap-
plause. Difficult formations seemed
as easy as though years had been
passed in the regular army, and
after the review the officers were
showered with compliments. Capt.
William C.. Webb, of the First Bat
talon, Field Artillery. Utah National
Guard, was in command.
Friday afternoon they drilled at
4:45 p. m. and Saturday at 400 p.
m. The cadet corps band of forty
pieces gave a concert in the evening
at the Plaza de Panama at 700 and
Saturday evening at 700. In the
afternoon drill Friday the cadets ap-
peared in full dress uniform.
Gov. William Spry, one of the best
friends of the San Diego Exposition,
his staff, the Utah Exposition Com
missioners, and his party arrived
early Thursday morning. With the
officers and men of the First Cavalry
and the Salt Lake City High School
Cadets as an escort, Governor Spry
was taken to the Exposition, via the
Laurel street entrance, by President
G. A. Davidson.
At noon the party was entertained
at luncheon given by the Exposi
tion at the Cristobal cafe. Many
ex-residents of Utah attended, hop
ing that Governor Spry would speak,
but speech making was tabooed at
the luncheon, as Governor Spry was
to make an address during the Utah
Day celebration Saturday afternoon
at the Speckel's music pavilion.
Governor Spry heartily evidenced
his pleasure at visiting the Panama
California Exposition and San Diego
again. 1t will be remembered that
he was here for the opening of the
Fair. Il like it even better than
before and | predict that a great
portion of the residents of Utah will
be your guests before the closing.
Returning visitors are enthusiastic
and they have stirred the bug of the
wanderlust toward San Diego and
her Fair.
We are expecting more genuine
results from this Exposition than we
are from the larger show at San
Francisco. We have everything in
Utah but settlers, and that is what
we are after here. We want colonists
and lots of them. We have every
thing in the world to offer them and
we are expecting our exhibit here to
do much for the upbuilding of our
state"
Governor Spry is proud of the
cadets of the Salt Lake City High
School. Every city which is big
enough should, | think, have mill
tary training in its high school. We
have found it Of vast importance in
our school work in Utah. | on'y
regret that we have only two cities
