cost of S135.OO0, the building activi-
ties being in the charge of commit
tee composed of Mr.. Stein. Mr.. Ono
hundro, chairman, and Mr.. A. c. shaw.
One of the most interesting fea-
lures in connection with the building
is the fact that the lodge room, nm
ished in blue and silver. will be al
most completely furnished by Mrs.
Abilene hammond, in memory of her
late husband, Anghs hammond, past
master of Stansbury Lodge.
The pipe organ which has been In

ON THE MAP.

ZION Park has won her rightful place on the map
Il of the Park-to-Park highway. The next thing
is to keep what she has won. Unless some
hotels can be built at once for the travel due the
ing year, Zion Park and allied Utah attractions will
lose in one season all the prestige that has been
gained to date. For every one tourist willing to put
up with whatever comes. there are hundred who
innsst on comfort and good food when on sight
seeing trip. Now that Panguitch has made start
towards hotel, it is imperative than ever that
Cedar City lose no time in finishing her new hotel.
Else we will be in the FIX of sleepy settlement stu
ated at the gateway of the Yosemite park in Cafor
MIA. which felt so secure her position that she put
off necessary hotel building until more enterprising
competitors did the building and diverted the travel.
leaving the former gateway to the park high and dry,
as far as tourist travel was concerned. Cedar City
has an active rival in Panguitch. who claims to be the
scenic hub of southern Utah. Our sister city-Paro-
wan-too, is an energetic bidder for travel to the
Breaks. and will make Cedar go some to hold her
own. The best way for Cedar to make her position
secure is to finish the new hotel That must be our
slogan: Finish the Hotel"

HEALTH SLACKERS

A people we have learned so much about the
N cause and prevention of infectious and con-
tagious diseases that nowadays there is little
excuse for an epidemic Take, for instance. small
pox We know just what ought to be done to contro!
il. Strict observance of quarantine regulations
comes first, careful following of the instructions OF
the health board, then vaccination.
But we have few health slackers who smuggle
the disease and scatter it from pure selhshness and
criminal disregard of the rights of their neighbors.
Usually there are only few without health CON
science But these few can do thousands of dollars
worth of damage to community People who know
mgly have exposed others to disease and have SO
caused the death of part of their victims really
guilty of taking human life. Those who merely cause
community great money and labor loss no better
than burners Of barns and plagers of fields. They
are deliberate enemies of the community They are
slackers they are worse yet, for they leave trail
of destruction wherever they 60 1t is blessing that
there are so few of them in our intelligent modern
communities. Most citizens today realize that the
manly and womany way is to report the affection il
there the least to suspect it as contagious OF
infectious, and then to follow quarantine regulations
and so keep your hands clean from any blame fol
loss of life or property.

ECONOMY AND CIVIC DUTY

In the great campaign for readjust-
ment to a sound peace basis there is
no higher civic duty than personal
economy.
We wasted, or as good as wasted
for economic purposes, twenty billion
dollars on the European war, expand
ing prices twenty billions more.
If every family of five persons in
our country would save and lay by in
the bank a thousand dollars this COM
ing year that would be made up.
There would be abundance of capital
to build railroads, undertake great
reclamation and irrigation works.
build homes to relieve the house short
age and extend mining and utilities.
Without economy on the part of the
individual there will be no shortage Of
reserve capital to undertake develop
and keep labor employed.
Suppose in a county of $4,000 peo-
pie a great public improve ent were
needed like a railroad or an irrigation
project and no goorey o. aila Die.
If half the pc le would save and
deposit in the hsnk 5000 each there
would be at the end of the year five
millions of stored capital available.
Two thousand communities at this
rate would store ten billions of av-
ailable capital and all this capital
would seek investment at interest.
Is not individual economy the high
est and most patriotic civic duty under
the circumstances and is not economy
what our nation most needs?
