Nothing could be moro appropriate

who visits Utah and tastes of our
celery recognizes instantly that II is
the best in tho world. If he tastes of
Utah celery elsewhere he probably
concludes that II is grown in Michigan
or some other state where inferior
varieties are raised and loudly ac-
claimed. 1t Is time to make the world
recognize the fact that Utah celery
is the best II the American people
desire to continue eating the much
Wanted Michigan celery, that is their

Ten days ago thousands of parcels
post packages, each containing
bunch of celery, were sent out of the
state, Results are already commenc-
ing to come in. This week orders were
received from eastern houses for sew
eral crates, and II Is expected that
Utah celery will grow in demand, till
car load shipments will be daily oc-
curence.
One man In American Fork, Ben W
Brown, this year grew ten acres
OF the finest celery grown in Utah
Last month three car loads were ship
ped east and gave excellent sasisfac'
ton. He has many rows now pitte,
awaiting shipment, and has demon
strated that with the opening OF
proper market, that over half Of oul
farming area could be made To In
crease about five times its presen
production.
II is quite possible that the cstab
lishment of celery day, the shipping
of thousands of samples east, and thi
years experiment of Mr., Brown
may mean the establishment of a neN
and profitable industry In American
Fork.

President Adams, of the Board oil

meeting of City Council for tomor-
row night for the purpose of electins
Judge for the new Juvenile and DO
mestic Relations Court.

least will be presented the body for
considerations. Hogs Kicks. present

The general impression is that Mr.
Kicks has the inside track in the
race, having been endorsed by many
societies and organizations as fitting
man by virtue OF his experience in
the present court and his deep study
OF the laws in relation to matters
which will have TO be settled in the
new court.
The ordinance creating the court
was signed by Mayor Ainslie last Fri
day. After its publication in the pa

Bowie. read story entitled When
the Chimes Rang.s
In the city of a distant country,
as the story ran. was a very beautiful
church. which was on hill in the CEN
ter of the city. This church was so
long that any one standing at one
end OF It could hardly see the other
end. but the most remarkable thing
about the church was the chimes Ris-
Ing up toward the sky was the tower
with these beautiful chimes, more
beautiful than any in all the world. No
one had heard these chimes ring in
years and years. On Chrtstmas Eve

Some said that a great magician made
the chimes ring. but others said that
the angels rang, them on Christmas
Eve. when some one gave very beau
tiful present. In a little village not
many miles from the city lived lit
tie boy named Pedro and his brother.
They had been planning for long
time to go to the church on Christmas
Eve and see the many beautiful things:
so when Christmas Eve came they set
out hand -in-hand and trudged along
until they reached the city gates and
when they started to enter the city
they saw an old woman who had
tainted and lay dying in the snow.
So Pedro said:
go on. little brother; go into the
church and see the beautiful things
while / stay here with the old woman
and keep her alive. And o! little broth
er. when no one is looking. slip quietly
up the aisle and put this piece or
silver on the altar" As Pedro's broth =
er's footsteps died away poor little
Pedro could hardly keep his tears. In
the great church the procession had
started. First came three wealthy men
bearing beautiful gifts of gold and
precious stones: next came great
author who had worked for years on
his book in hopes that the chimes
would ring. The king and queen of
the country came up and the king took
off his crown and put 1t on the altar.
Then everyone said: surely the chimes
should ring" but only the whistling
of the wind was heard The process
sion was over and the organ was play
ing and no one was looking, when
slowly Pedro's little brother crept up
and laid his Offering on the altar,
Suddenly the organ stopped and
everyone listened and heard the chimes
distant. yet clear and sweet, pealinG
forth glad tidings and little Pedro out
side the city walls heard their clear
notes and was rejoiced.
The procession was illustrated by
Sunday School children and the chimes
were reproduced on the organ. Fol-
lowing the story the children carried
their gifts to the chancel steps. These
will be distributed by the church
among tho little children in the city
whose parents either through misfor =
tune or Illness are unable 10 provide
Santa Claus for them.
The services closed with the singing
by the infant class OF the anthem OF
away in Manger.'
