Obedience to the Authority
of the Priesthood
Ward Teaching Subject for
June, 1918

The Priesthood OF Aaron
holds the keys of the ministring
of angels, and Of the Gospel of
repentance, and of baptism by
immersion for the remission of
sins. The greater Priesthood
administered the Gospel and
holdeth the keys of the histories
of the kingdom, even the keys
of the knowledge of God. ;"
The Latter-day Saints have the
Priesthood with its ordinances,
authority and blessing. "All
officers and authorities in the
Church are appendages to the
Priesthood"
Few indeed, fully comprehend
the sacredness and magnitude of
the responsibility they assume
when this Priesthood lis confer
red upon them. 1t is dangerous
to treat lightly so sacred a re-
possibility and those who neg
lect to follow the counsel of the
authority of the Priesthood will
place themselve on dangerous
grounds and may loose the bless
ings directly dependent upon it.
The Savior said, why call me
Lord, Lord and do not the things
which say?" The Apostle Paul
says. "Obey them that have rule
over you, and submit yourselves:
for they watch for your souls as
they that must give account,
that they may do it with joy,
and not with grief, for that is
improbable for you."
We know the joy that an obe-
dient child brings to its parents
and the assurance it gives them
of its future happiness and use
sulness. We understand we'll,
the superiority of a law abiding
citizen over that of law-breaker
Those who are obedient to the
authority of the Priesthood are
better citizens, more useful,
happier and more satisfied in
every way than those who have
accepted the calling of the
Priesthood and have neglected
their duties and disobeyed it's
authority.
The Priesthood provides the
only means by which we can OBJ
tain eternal life in the presence
of God. Without it no man can
see the face of God, even the
Father, and live"

At Stake house Sunday after
noon we were particularly inter-
ested in talks made by Jesse M.
Smith and VIM. c.. Smith, two of
our young men who will leave
this Saturday for Camp Funston,
Kan. Of course the army is
drafting the flower of our young
manhood. In the case of Jesse
M. Smith and VIM. C. Smith
they are very much of our flow
er Snowflake young manhood.
They are useful citizens. They
are young men with more than
ordinary ability and to see them
so much in earnest about offering
their lives to their country in
Christian andpatriotic sacrifcice
was indeed more than interest
ing. Such makes US feel that
we should be more alive to the
real needs of this world war that
such of our noblemen may go
forth to battle with their lives in
their hands that we may continue
to live in a land of freedom and
Christian liberty as they go let
our dollars and prayers go with
them and they will return.

CONGESTING TRANSPORTS
One Consignment Recently Filled ~
French Railway Csrs.-ArticIes
Can Be Bought in France.

Washington. March 16-Unnecessary
articles sent by relatives and friends
to American soldiers overseas, are TAX
ing up so much transportation space
both in ships and on congested French
railroads, that drastic curtailment of
the parcel post privilege to the fight
ers in France will be necessary unless
the public co-operates in decreasing
the volume of this class of mail.
The postoffice department, in max
ing this announcement, said a steamer
to France this winter carried besides
II, 7S0 letters, 335, $40 pieces of parcel
post and newspapers, the whole taking
up 1900 cubic feet of space, although
only 1,211A tons. The par
eel post packages and newspapers fill
ed 10 French railroad cars, and as cars
are badly needed in France for war
purposes mail frequently had to wait
at French ports for several days be-
fore means of transportation were
available.
Twelve hours inspection of the con-
tents of the parcel post packages for

ENLARGEMENT SHIPYARDS
PROPOSED TO COMMITTEE
Plan includes Doubling Size of Some
Smaller PIants.-WiIl Build no
More Big Plants.

Washington, March 13.-Tentative
plans for enlarging the governments
shipbuilding program have been laid
before the senate ship investigating
committee by Charles L. Piez, general
manager of the emergency fleet cor
poration. He suggested the employ
ment of practical shipbuilder to have
charge of enlarging some of the pres
ent Atlantic coast shipyards and to
have the government take over con-
struction at some of the plants.
Mr.. Piez said the program had not
yet been fully developed, the purpose
of his visit being to ascertain whether
the members would approve the plan.
Chairman Fletcher said the committee
members are in full accord with Mr..
Riez' ideas as outlined.
Committee members PARTICULARS
were interested in Mr.. Piez' proposal
to take over smaller yards and en-
large them to double their size. Mr.
Piez opposed the construction of any
more huge plants like that building
at Hog Island, Pa, and it was made
plain that the construction of any
additional new plants is not now con-
.emplated.

DAILY TRENCH RAIDS ARE
CARRIED OUT BY AMMIES
Latest Incurson Is Pulled off Without
Aid of French Troops as
Customary.

London, March 13.-The American
troops holding a portion of the line of
battle north of Toul are making raids
into enemy territory a part of their
daily routine. Following their incur
sion of Monday morning, when, after
a bombardment, they raided German
front lines for 300 yards, unaided. as
had been customary, by the French,
they set ont again on Tuesday and
made a successful surprise attack on
trenches south of Richecourt. which
lies to the northeast of Xivray. where
some of the hardest fighting in which
they have been engaged has taken
place
All along the western front intensive
duels and raiding operations
are continuing on isolated sectors. The
Australians again have carried out
raids into German trenches
northeast of Messines. killing a number
of Germans and making prisoners of
others. In Lorraine the French near
Bounced put down effectively strong
German attempt at foray, inflicting
heavy losses on the enemy and also
-aking prisoners. In appition to a con-
-inuation of the artillery duels along |
he Italian front, there is considerable |
aerial activity daily. In fights in the |
iir Monday the Italians brought down |
i've hostile planes.
