JUST RIGHT

the present week both of which were lust
right" fs~N
The first was the appointment of Dr.
George Thomas to the Presidency of the
University of Utah. The regents are to
be congratulated on the performance Of
this important duty to the best interests
and Advancement of the state. Dr. Thorn
as is eminently qualified for the position
and will discharge the duties of the high
office with credit and honor to himself
and the state. We have congratulated
him before, and now, on behalf of legion
of friends in this county we extend con-
gratulations again, and venture the
thought from what we have heard that
every man, woman and child in Cache
county was behind Dr.. Thomas for the pc
sition and are now behind him in the hope
that his administration will be complete
success.
The second was the naming by Presi-
dent Harding of former President Taft
for Supreme Justice of the highest judi
cial tribunal in the world the Chief JUS
tice of the Supreme Court. For weeks,
in fact ever since the death of Chief JUS
tice White, former President Taft has
been nominated by the American people
and in naming him President Harding
has but carried out the will of the mil
lions who supported him as well as the
apparent desire of large majority Of
those who supported Governor Cox. His
fitness for the high office is unquestion-
ed, and his success as an arbiter of the
weightiest questions of all time is as
sured.
America owes it to herself to look well
after her ex-presidents and should it so
happen in the course of events that for.
mer President Wilson's health should so
improve that he might be available for
some high honor he should have the right
of way, and in the event of his being
named to some high position the nation
will applaud.
LIFE
Life is bank we open an account at
the moment of our birth. The bank is
scrupulously just; it pays us interest on
| all our savings, but it knows no false gen
| crosby. 1t never sends us false state
ment; it never permits us to overdraw
our account. Our capital is safe; the
bank can't break, for its assets and funds
are secured by eternity. Sometimes you
hear men and women say that their lives
! are bankrupt; if that be true, it means
that they have either lived on their capt.
tai or have never saved.
| 1t does not mean and can never mean
| that eternity has defrauded and that the
bank of life has put up its shutters. What
we have brought to life, whether it be
the gilt-edged securities of sacrifice OF
the unredeemable trash of passion, is al.
ways in the vaults Of life for us to draw
against until it is exhausted There's ar
old saying, God doesn't debt with mon.
ey'-not with mony, perhaps, but he new,
er fails to pay his debts. So, if you don't
know how to answer the question: what
are you getting out of life?" there's an.
other question which will give you your
answer what have you given to life? p
For what you have given to life is what
YOU are getting out of life with in,
terest; and if what you are getting out OF
life makes you discontinued, there is only
one remedy-give to life more wisely anC
more lavishly.-Lieut. Coningsby Dawson
in McClme's.
With $6,500,000,000 in her savings
banks, it's going to be something of &
problem to make the United States be-
lieve that the financial situation is really
so desperate as some people would have
us beheve.--Marion Star.
