TOURIST TRAVEL TO ZION
PARK WILL BE STUPENDOUS

That the tourist travel to Zion Can
yon Park has not been overestimated
by Mr.. Mather and other authorities
familiar with the park business, is
evidenced by such letters as the fol-
lowing, which are being received ev-
cry few days either by those handling
the transportation business, the Wy
lie camps or by the local Commercial
club, of which The Record scribe has
been shown a number, and Of which
the following is a sample:

PERTINENT QUESTIONS
ASKED BY OBSERVER"

Cedar City, May Z. Editor Record.
Would it not be wise thing to get
the county road supervisor to look
into the matter of widening the road
at the point of the Knoll north Of
town, so as to eliminate the danger
from the speed maniacs who delight
to go around there like they we're 60
ing for the doctor, and endangering
the lives of the farmers and other
teamsters, to say nothing Of those
who are willing and want to be bit
more conservative?
To get the same supervisor to tight
en- up the bolts and braces on the big
bridge Just north Of town and adjust
the braces holding it in shape before
is comes crashing down; especially if
one of those summer freshets comes
this summer that we have known in
the past? 44
TO take well-learned lesson from
the present scarcity of hay that is
selling at thirty-five to forty dollars
ton and kill off hundred or so of
those cayuse ponies that are so much
in evidence around the fields and are
such menace to the farmers and
others and that are eating up good
forage and hay that could be used a
thousand times more profitably in
feeding milk cows or sheep? But ev-
cry fellow feels that he has right to
keep as many of the pestiferous things
as he likes, and thinks he is doing the
country service in so doing
TO eliminate that eye-sore of a
dumping ground just across the street
from the city of our dead, and that
bawls out loudly to the tourist coming
into this COLLEGE town before he
enters the city, that Cedar City is an
untidy and careless place?

for the extending of liberal loans to
assist them in the reclamation and
improvement Of the homesteads thus
acquired.
Moreover we suggest the advisable
ity of converting substantial por-

to be devoted to such purpose.
We demand an immediate curtail-

and the waste Of public funds, and
heartily commend our senior senator,
Reed Smoot, for his Incorporating
stand for an economical and efficient
administration Of federal affairs, and
for his untiring efforts to effect a
substantial reduction of the tax bur-
dens now resting heavily on the peo-
pie and more equitable apportion-
ment of the same.
Also we demand speedy return OF
constitutional government, such as
will enable each coordinate branch or
agency Of the federal government to
function in it's own proper channel
without undue or unwarranted inter
ruption or interference on the part Of
another, and we demand the prompt
repeal of such extraordinary war
measures as will result in the i'm

But you'll have time a searchin'
Eyes will be achin' bad,
Ere you'll ever find a poem
At this time for pore old Dad.
No, it isn't wilful in 'em,
Them that write of Mother dear;
That there's never notice taken
Of her old man sittin' near.
No, it's never meant to slight him,
But it looks little sad,
All the bouquets made for Mother,
Not bloom for pore old Dad.
True, our Mother watched above us
Till her dear old eyes would ache;
But old Dad he bumped to feed us
Till his back would nearly break.
Mother crooned above the cradle,
Gave devotion, all she had;
Still there wasn't any circus
At this time for pore old Dad.
Now don't take one line from Mothe
When you write the Souls swes

But if there's a word for Father,
Now and then it won't be wrong.
Poor old soul, he's bent and wrinkle,

Old sheets are relied upon to make
new coverings for ironing boards, as
the used ones become discolored. They
serve, also, with old pillow cases, as
pressing cloths when wooden clothes
need freshenlng up. The garments
are pressed under dampened cloth
which is ironed until dry, as every
one knows, and the steam penetrating

nothing else will.
Worn pillow cases are very useful
for protecting houses, waists and chill

are kept hanging in closets. For light
colored and dainty garments provide
hangers of wire 0r wood. Cut a hole
in the middle OF the end of an old
pillow case 10 slip the hook on the
