Lars P. Overson, president o1 the Emery Stake of Z+on of the L. D. s. Church accompanied by his wife and his son Louis anC wife arrived in St. Johns last Saturday afternoon from Castle Dale, Utah.
 MT. Overson is a brother of oul fellow townsman Owe c. Overson who has been a resident of St. Johns for so long. Forty-three years ago these brothers parted at the town known as Sunset, which used to be about where Winslow now stands, Lars P. went back to Utah and Owe c. remained and came to St. Johns, and until last Saturday they have never met since the parting so long ago. The meeting was a joyful one indeed.
 Since their arrival here they have been visiting among the Overson families and visiting the most prominent places of interest. They are high in their praise of our goodly land and think that we have many advant- ages here and many good oppor- tunities.
 A family reunion was held last night at Henry c. Overson home where all those in the city gathered to have time of re- joicing together.
 These two brothers with their children and their families total 90. t
 Mr. Overson and his son and wives left today on their return trip.

The St. Johns Stake academy will open it's doors next Monday, September 1st. It is expected that this will be the banner year at the academy thus far. In our opinion the success or failure of a school depends largely upon the patrons of that school or upon the people who should be patrons of it. We can be boosters or we can be knockers or we can be a balky horse when placed in the team to work and thus retard the progress that should be made. Which are you going to be; a booster, or knocker. a balky horse or a hard pulling horse? It is up to us whether the acad- emy is a success or a failure.

ISLANDER ON PALlSADE.

The sensational publication on
Thursday last in the Hudson Dispatch
of a yarn headed another Amuse-
ment Park in Palisade" was charac-
teristic of the little upstart who man
ages the Bergen department of that
very unreliable newspaper. 1t would
be reasonable to suppose that self
respecting publication would consider
the feelings of the various commune
ties it pretends to serve, and look well
into facts before printing such injuri-
Gus articles as the park sensation.
While it is true the Dispatch on Fri
day printed another report saying
there would not be another amuse-
ment park sin the borough of Fort
Lee" it did not apologize for the dam
aging report it made on the day pre-
viOus about Palisade There is an old
legend that even reporter can be a
gentleman.

BUCklNG FATE.

Now that the League of Nations is
reduced to Il party measure it is bit
early to strike balance in order to
see what the real figures might be on
a shakedown. Not all the Democrats
are in favor of the league and most
assuredly not all the Republicans.
OF the really prominent Democrats
who are opposing Mr.. Wilson in his
efforts TO put the league over with the
peace treaty the two most prominent
men are Senator Reed and eX-Speaker
Clark. Among the Republicans Sena-
tors Knox, Lodge and Borah and 9th
ers not so important are the office
holding DIRECTORS, while eX-President
Taft and ex-Candidate Charles Evans
Hughes are the dominant factors IA
voring the league. Mr. Taft is an out
and-outer, while Mr.. Hughes says the
league issue is American and not par
tisan. The Union League Clubs mani
festo last week was another strong ex-
preston of faith in the League of Ma
tons, which came as bolt from a
clear sky, the most unlocked for action

HOW WOMEN HAVE ADVANCED
Status in Great Britain Less
Than a Century Ago.

Should women be whipped?
Just a century ago wiseacres, poll
ticians and noble lords of Great Brit
ain were debating the point. 1t was
quite q new idea to worry about what
was happening to women, but after
some discussion it was decided that
they ought not to be whipped-that
the best way to handle them was on
the 'gentle-but-firm" method-and in
1920 the wiseacres, politicians and
noble lords passed bill known as
the whipping act, prohibiting the cor
pOral punishment of women.
Having made this exertion on wom-
cussion of things which interested
them.
Fifty years passed. The seed which
had been planted in 1920 began to
take root in 1870, and the question of
special legislation for women again
bobbed up. This time an act was
passed allowing women to be posses
sors of their own property-a mag
unanimous document known as the
married women's property act
Those two acts, small in themselves,
were of great portent TO women. They
were the first admission that women
had any rights or legal status.
In the last fifty years women have
come to the foreground in leaps and
bounds. BY the Interpretation act of
1889 the government went so far as
to allow that words in any act of
parliament passed after 1850 lmputing
the masculine gender shall include
females unless the contrary intention
appears. London Mail.

so far developed from an organized
coterie of DIRECTORS The situation has
placed the pacemakers in the editorial
field in an embarrassing attitude be-
cause they have now begun to show
their temper by heaping loads of
abuse.
On Monday the Sun was out in IA
vor of strictly party fight against
the league "now that the Democrats
are making it the 1920 issue" The
Sun belittles Mr.. Hughes and says:
THE fact is, Mr. Hughes, that the
Wilson league is already a political is
sue and the biggest political issue
since the days of slavery. The fact is,
Mr.. Hughes, that it is not only politi-
cal issue, but has been political issue
since Mr. Wilson set foot in Boston
with his pernicious covenant in his
pocket for the denationalizing OF
America
The fact is the Sun is trying to
make the really biggest Republican
alive believe that he is jackass and
doesn't know it.
But Mr.. Hughes has turned loose
one of the biggest thoughts of the day
in declaring that the League of Ma
tions is an American and not a party
issue. which is equivalent to saying
that it is a necessity.

WHAT SUGAR HoARDERs DID.

Sugar is sweet subject to consider
from any angle. This thought is in
spired by reading the annual report of
the American Sugar Refining Com
pany for the past year. 1t will sur
prise many of those who yielded to the
demand to curtail the use of sugar
during the war to- learn that in point
of fact the country consumed about its
normal supply of sugar, regardless of
the embargo and request for conserva-
ton. In normal times the country uses
about 10000 tons of sugar per day, or
100000 tons per month. The normal
average held good during 1918 This
was not because several million fami-
lies stinted themselves in its use be-
cause of the demand of the govern
ment, but because many people made
increased purchases because of the re-
strictiOnS. In other words, the public
was actually greedy enough to fool the
government, which proves that a large
percentage of people are selfish.
