Registration Day

Snowflake is 100 per cent
American. No one hears of any
objections to registration or the
selective draft plan in Snowflake.
w. w. Freeman had charge
of the registration Tuesday and
62 were found among us who are
of selective draft age.
The Herald trusts that not a
single one of those who so cheer
fully registered their names will
be called to go to the front. But
if any of them are selected we
know that Snowflake will be
we'll and loyalty represented in
the service of our country.

OBITUARY

On Friday, at 10 p. m. June l,
1917, John Hunt, one of earth's
noblemen and a pioneer in very
deed, passed from this life, at
the age of "a years.
He had been afflicted for some
time with general debility, but
not confined to his room or bed,
only one week.
John Hunt was born March 9,
1888, in Edwards Co.. Ill. His
parents were Jefferson Hunt and
Celia Mounts, Chey were Kentuck-
ians by birth, but moved to
Illinois soon after their marriage;
had a family of eleven children,
John being the third son and
fifth child of the family. He was
a pioneer of Iowa, Colorado, Utah
and California before his marri-
age, and of New Mexico and
Arizona since then.
He married Lois B. Pratt in
San Bernardino, Cal., July A,
1857, by whom he had eight
children, six girls and two boys.
From San Bernardino, CAL, he
moved to Beaver, Utah, where
he was sheriff Of Beaver county
for twelve years. From there
he moved to Sewer county, Utah,
and from there to Savoia, New
Mexico. in February 1877.
When the town of Snowflake
was organized from the Stinson
ranch, he was called to be Bishop
of the new town, and served in
that capacity from Dec. 1878
until Jan. l, 1910.
His wife Lois, died Mar. 9,
1885, in Snowflake.
He married Sarah ]. Crosby
Mar. 18, 1883, by whom he had
nine children. five girls and four
boys.
He married Hap Sanford Mar.
19, 1887. She had no children.
He is the last of his brothers
to depart this life, but he has
three sisters atill living, one old
er and two younger than himself
He leaves a posterity of seven
teen children, seventy two grand
children, and thirty-seven great
grandchildren.
His son Ross is a missionary in
the Central States and he has
two grand-sons in the Southern
STATES, as missionaries, and
others of the grand children
could not be present.
The funeral services were held
at 3 p. m., June A, 1917, and
were largely attended.
His life was full to over-fowing
of good deeds and fatherly coun-
sci and especially did he love
little children.
He has fought the good fight;
he has kept the faith, and may
his defendants follow his example.
Mrs. Alof Larson.

"Panic Proof" Vies With Fire Proof.

"TdnIC TTOOI WIGS Witt T"c TTOo1'
According to a decision recently
made by Supreme Court Justice Gave
gan of New York the state industrial
commission may direct owners of
buildings to make them 'panic proof"
even If they were previously fireproof.
The court said: 1.-THE reasonableness
of the commissions orders depends di-
rectly on the question, rs the building
safe from the danger Of panic?' Panic
may result from causes not confined
to a factory building itself nor af-
fected by it's fireproof character. 1t
may be caused by smoke alone, or by
fire in a building adjoining or in the
Immediate neighborhood, or by a con-
flagration, or by a hostile attack in
time Of war from land, sea or air, or
by earthquake, or even by a false
alarm"
/ Order In the Garden.
All strong or striking features in
garden should be at some distance
skrOm the residence and from each 9TH
<, so that each shall be a center of
interest for that particular part of the
garden. Never have a clutter of such
ehipgs, either about the house or else
where.

PERGOLA NOW WIDELY USED
&dds to Beauty Of Garden II It 10
" Properly Constructed and Effec.
.is lively Placed.

Comparatively few gardens are now
complete without pergola of some
kind, though twenty years ago they
were almost unknown in America.
They are, however, so useful in giving
variety to the garden, and have so
much decorative value, that they are
widely used.
Pergolas need careful construction,
and an effort should be made before
building one, to choose suitable po-
eition for it, since, If a pergola is set
down with no apparent raison d'etre.
.-it-becOmes burden rather than a help
In the garden scheme. It should lead
to some defined object-to a summer
house, or gate, or perhaps to terrace
steps; if it begins and ends for no ap-
parent reason, it is certainly misplaced.
In the gardens Of La Mortola near
Bordighera, the pergola leads out to
a. wide terrace with a stone balustrade,
while beyond lies the wonderful blue of
the Mediterranean and the gray rocks
Of the Italian coast; and this view
:, gains double value from being framed
<as it were, in tunnel of greenery.

How you admire that lady who
seems to be all brightness and
cheerfulness, and yet she is as
busy as the rest of us in household
duties with everything to do. Lis
ten, and we'll tell you the reason
why she seems TO have more time
than the rest of us. she wastes nc
time in fretting; she has learned
the true value of things. She
never frets and sac never scolds.
1t doesn't pay. Fretting and
scolding leave ugly marks upon
the face and upon the character.
Is everything wrong, the day up
side down, the fire won't burn
the children out of sorts, a picked
up dinner, and company at the
last moment. She does the best
she can and lets the consequences
take care of themselves. Worry
will not help matters; and then
she has secret, secret she is
willing to tell all her friends.
Every day at a certain hour she
goes to her room and locking the
door, has half an hour absolutely
to herself. Ii she is very tired she
wrings q towel out of water as hot
as she can bear and winds it about
her neck, renewing it till the
weary muscles relax and she can
lie down and sleep tor few min
utes, arise refreshed and invigo-
rated for the rest of the day. Try
it, weary mother. Be good
enough to yourself and those who
depend upon you to take time for
rest and refreshment.

KEEP IN THE COUNTY ROAD

am forced to call halt in
travel across my farm -nerth OF
town, which was damaged at least
fifty dollars during the last wet
spell.
The county is supposed to fur
nish a road with the present ap-
preparation of $40 to $40 per mile
that man can get over with at
least two dozen eggs of average
size, but as they fail to do SO, | am
not going to furnish a road across
my farm at private expense to re-
lieve the county of this great bur-
den.
1t is said that people, lightning
and electricity naturally follow the
lines of the. least resistance. 1t
must be then that our roads put
up vast amount of resistance
which accounts for people being
so inclined to get out of them at
every opportunity.
We have two methods os pun
ishment in the county. One is
forcing people in the county Jail,
the other. last but not least is
forcing people in the county roads.
If it was left up to jury of honest
men to decide which was the
highest punishment at the present
time feel sure that they would
decide unanimously in favor OF
the Jail.
| would suggest as about the
only efficient method of keeping
people in the county roads as long
as we keep them in their presen
state of putrefaction is to apply
the same method as we do to keeT
them in the county Jail, viz. tC
put up steel cross bars on each Q
the county roads throughout th'
entire length and breadth of th'
county. Geo. L. McMasters,

No Success Without Work.

Say, young mai, there is one
thing you cannot do. You can
not make a success in life unless
you work. Better men than you
bave tried and failed. You can't
loaf around street corners and
saloons. smoke cigars, tell foul
stories, drink whiskey and sponge
on someone else, without making
a failure in life. You must learn
trade or get into some honest
business. If you don't you will
be chronic loafer, despised by
all, producing nothing, simply
making yourself burden on your
parents or the state. There is nc
place in the world for loafers.
The ripe fruit is all at the top OF
the tree. You must climb to gel
u. If you wait for it to fall al
your feet you will never get it
| Smarter men will jump up and ge
all, Move. Do something, NJ
matter how small. 1t will be
starter. Help Yourself and Others
will help you. There is no roya
road to success. Toll, grit and
endurance; these are requisites

Every county, if it would share
largely in the benefits to accrue,
should be represented, and the
greater portion of them will, in
