Saturday, January 18th, the first
game of the State High School series
was played, the B. Y. U. quintette
losing to Hayson High, at a score 2l-27.
Both teams played very hard and fast.
The second game was one of the fastest
this year. The contestants were the
B. Y. U. college five against select
team of old stars, the "Appolas," " from
American Fork. This game was a
comeback, for the "Appolas" had de-
feated the B. Y. U. at American Fork,
Friday night. The score at American
Fork was 27-24, and at Provo, 25-35.
A regular dancing class is given on
Thursday evening, at the B. Y. U.
Gymnasium. The latest dances are
taught in this class and then introduced
in the Friday night dances.
Indoor base ball work will be started
in about two weeks. The "Y' has
won the base ball pennant for several
years and expects to keep up its record.
Often times students coming from
other places to attend school, do not
wish to identify themselves with the
regular ward organizations, and hence
they do not keep their attendance at
Sunday services. In order to meet this
condition two Sunday services are held
at the college chapel. Sunday school at
1890 o'clock in the morning, consisting
of a thirty-minute lecture followed by
class discussion. The evening program
lasts an hour and is always very inter-
esting and instructive. Under this ar
rangement no student need miss his
regular Sunday worship.

OBITUARY

| Joseph Gilbert Alfred, aged 63 years,
died at the Platt & Stratton's hospital
| Sunday, after an illness of several
years. He has suffered a great deaI
with stomach trouble, but has continued
| to carry on his work until six weeks
ago, when he took his final severe i'll
ness. then was taken to the hospital,
where his sister, Mrs. Blain, could nurse
him, as his children wereill with typhoid
| fever and WhOoping caugh. He passed
peacefully away with his nearest kin
about him.
Funeral services took place in the
church on Tuesday afternoon, with a
large attendance, many coming from
every town in the valley. The decOra-
tions for the occasion were pretty and
appropriate. The Academy choir fur
nished the singing.
The speakers were: W. w. Pace. J.
F. Nash, A. C. Peterson and Patriarch
Samuel Claridge. All spoke of his honor
and integrity, of his quiet unassuming
manner, of his fight for right, of his
faithfulness to duty and of his great
work in helping to build up the country.
The remains were inferred in the
Thatcher cemetary.
Joseph Gilbert Alfred, son Of Joseph
and Rhoda Alfred, was born at Spring
City, San Pete county, Utah, June 2,
1851. When about l6 years old, the
Indians in central part of Utah went on
the war path, and Young Alfred was
one of the home guard in those trying
times.
In 1870 he went to Davis county,
Utah, and secured position with Presi-
dent Christopher Layton. He was mar
ried to Miss Eliza Ann Layton, daughter
of President Layton, in Salt Lake City,
Daniel H. Wells officiating. They lived
in Utah and improved the desert land
and built a nice home in what is now
the town of Layton, Utah.
March %, 1888, Mr.. Alfred and his
family removed to St. David, Arizona.
At this time the Indians were giving
much trouble and he rode many days
and nights hunting stock stolen by the
Indians. The family moved from St.
David to Thatcher, February 13, 1888.
At that time Thatcher was little more
than mesquite thicket.
Mr.. Alfred built beautiful home in
Thatcher, now owned by J. II. Porter
and several other dwelling houses, and
helped to build the first ice plant in the
valley.
April II, 1908, his wife died. She
was known all over the valley by the
Sunday school and primaries, as Aunt
Maggie Alfred She was great loss
to her family and community, in which
she labored to educate the children.
In 1905, Mr.. Alfred married Elizabeth
Allen, at Thatcher, Bishop W, A, Moody
officiating.
During all his life he worked hard
for the upbuilding of his country. He
was benevolent to his fellOwman and
one of the first to donate and help build
churches and the public schools. Dur
ing the last twenty years of his life he
was a member of the board of education
of the Gila Academy.
For the past five years his health was
bad. In July, 1914, he went to Salt Lake
City for treatment by the best doctors
and returned without receiving much
benefit. He was the father of eleven
children, nine of whom with his wife
survive him. Four children are mar
ried: Mrs. Sarah A. Hunt, Chris. A..
Alfred, J. Myron Alfred and Mrs.
Maggie A. Assay. There are five small
children.

Fully third of the crop has been
cut and shielded, and large percent
age of 1T is green, not fit for the knife I
In spite of all the protests made by the
local dealers against it, the growers
would cut. The weather lately was the
very kind needed to bring out and de-
velop the plants, and more than all,
ripen them. The leaves of the new
crop are, as rule, being short and
narrow, suitable for filters, but not for
wrappers, even those put away in good
condition. The argument was that
when the hot spell broke, the opposite
kind of weather was bound to come,
and frost was nearly certain to follow
When grower here and a grower
there began to cut and talked frost to
his neighbors, the entire neighborhood
became infected with his fears, and
soon the knives were busily at work.
That the tobacco was not ripe made no
difference.
A good many growers are willing to
take gamblers chance, trusting that
they will be in one of the districts
where the agents of big outside con-
Germs will come and make a general
sweep of the crops at general price.
Well, the hope is slim one, with few
grounds for it this year. A few days
ago the local representative of one OF
the biggest of the concerns that buy ir
our county told the writer that this
year they would buy every crop on It's
merit, and inspect even more closely
tran wss done asst year.
