the upstairs rooms every Friday Pub
lie service and care for others had
wrought the magic of new ambition.
Deep In her heart every woman
knows that ibis war has created new
standards, and these standards affect
her home, her sons, her daughters
and her relationship to her neighbors.
The oldest woman's organization In
the world, the Young Women's Chris
tian Association, Is facing this recon-
struction period as woman sees 1t.
II is pointing out "the way"
With far sighted vision the Assocla-
ton is planning to help the girls of
this country. II is training them for
large responsibilities as leaders in a
new social order Girls have all of our
opportunities. none of our prejudices.
The Y. w. G. A. does not work for
girls, but with them. 1t teaches them
through classes and clubs of their own
how to start cleanup days, how to
help provide for public Fairgrounds,
for community recreation centers in
county seats and the way to begin pub
lie Libraries and the yearly custom of
community Christmas trees.
Women have been record breakers
a.. hn MI In laIv
precedented things. Now they must be
standa. I bearers.
They have tabooed waste and lux
ury. Now they must show the practl-
Cal value of thrift and simplicity
Working with the churches, the
schools and agencies already set up,
the Y. W. G. A. is strengthening the
work for women and girls in each
community. Ii is not necessarily
bringing In more organi alton. 1t is
simply offering the women of the
country way to be of service.
There are recreation centers needed
near you where games, dances and fea-
ture parties can be arranged for a
whole neighborhood or township. Girls
want place where they can meet
their men friends under proper and
wholesome conditions. They want
chance to play. They want class in
struction in French, English. Spanish,
In stenography, millinery, dressmaking
and cooking. Bible classes and read
ing courses with the books they can
not get In any other way they want as
only girl In her teens knows how to
want for anything.
The Young Womens Christian Asso-
citation offers you way to be of serv-
fee and to help the girls and women of
your community to get these things
which they viii need so sorely in the
days of adjustment ahead of us. Never
before were the services of women
needed as they are needed today
There is task waiting for you now II
you are willing to "carry on"

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion Of the ear. There is
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal deafness is caused by an infiamed
condition OF the mucous lining of the eusta-
chan tube. When this tn be is infiamed you
have rum bling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when 1t is entirely closed, deafness rs the
duced and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever
Many cases of deafness are caused by catarrh,
which is an infamed condition of the mucous
surfaces. Halls Catarrh Medicine acts
through the blood on the mucous surfaces of
the system.
We will give one hundred dollars for any
casa of catarrhal deafness that cannot he

Private George Richardson was home

furlough.
Dr. B. Lake Noyes left Saturday for New
York, being called there by serious illness
in bis sisters family.
Power Co. was in town this week calling
on business men with view to interest
ing them in an electric power and light
proposition. He received much encourage
ment, and next spring his company will
submit a definite proposition for consid-
Grafton. 1t is hoped that this undertake
ing will materialize for power and light are
greatly needed on the island. 1t has long
since been demonstrated that plant de-
pending wholly on the local demand could
not be successfully operated.
Definite news has been received by
steal condition Of Carl Morey, who was
reported seriously wounded in the last
desperate fighting in France. He has
just arrived in New York on one of the
large transports. He writes that he lost
his left arm, but thinks himself mighty
lucky to get out of the struggle without
much greater sacrifice. Carl was young
man of fine physique and made an excellent
soldier. All sympathize with him in his
loss. We are justly proud of his record in
the fight for world freedom, and are anx-
iously awaiting further news of his re-
covery and early return home.
Norman e. Torrey, naval officer aboard
the U. 8. 8. Texas, one of the first-line
ships of the Dreadnaught class to receive
the surrender of the German grand fleet,
writes his parents an interesting account
of his experiences. He states that the
Hun ships are wonderful fighting machines
every foot of available space having
been utilized to increase their efficiency,
and is still wondering how 1t was that
any nation possessing a fighting outfit
like theirs would have hoisted the white
flag without giving battle. But he adds
that it is we'll for them that sDer Tag"
never came.
DIR. Raymond w. Clarke arrived home
Wednesday, having been recently released
from duty in the service, where he held
commission as first lieutenant in the med
ical reserve corps. He entered the army

sary preliminary training at Camp Green
leaf, Ga, was ordered to report for overseas
duty in the eleventh sanitary train made
up of thirty doctors and nurses and sched-
uled to sail from an Atlantic port on or
about the first of September. On arrival
at Camp Meade, Md, the influenza had
spread South, and orders were received

in camp. His disappointment in not get

by reason of being assigned to duty as

The party found that there are
several places where pumping outfits
can be installed very profitably. Not
able among these are the state dam
in Cedar valley in Utah county; at
Vernon. in Rush valley. Tooele
county. near Beaver city, and near
Milford in Beaver county. A well
is now being dug at Cedar City un-
der the direction Of Mr.. Haskell.
Prospects are very bright for the
purchase of two more pumping rigs
and prospecting rig in the very
near future. ~
An interesting incident occurred al
Cedar City. The party came upon a
field where tractor was being used
for blowing. DR.. Harris imediately
clibed into the drivers seat and
drove the tractor around the field,
testing It out. He was followed by
President E. G. Peterson. who not
only drove the tractor around the
field but added remarkably straight
furrow to the ones already plowed.

Prof. William Peterson left the party

AS result of the trip Prof. Is
raelsoa is of the opinion that condi-
tons are very favorable for the In
stallation of pumping plants in many
parts OF the state, thus retaining
large areas of land which are now
useles for agricultural purposes. The
cost of these plants is such as to
prevent individuals from installing
them. Therefore the Utah Agricui-

ment will cooperate in the work OF
