MARLBROOK CHURCH
 IS TO BE SAVED

The Marlbrook Presbyterian church which was greatly damaged by the recent great storm, has been exam
 ined by several experts and pro- nounced in condition to be restored. A committee has been appointed and the contract to put the building back in place has been let to MT. Ben Auxier of Prescott, and he has com menced work out there, and expects to have the house ready for service by the 18th inst. This church has been conducting live Sunday school for 50 years and has exerted great influence for good in that community. This church and Sunday school has been a bright beacon-light in all that section and in the days of the "cross roads saloon" and accompanying evils it stood like giant oak for sobriety and no saloon or blind tiger could exist there. No young man under this influence grew to be drunkard or blind-tiger keeper, nor has one ever been arrested for lawlessness or any crime against the state, and the state has never had to pay one cent for suppression of crime there. All good people will rejoice to know that the old church will still stand as a bulwark against evil and that her beneficial influence will still be exert ed in the future as in the past.

MORMON CHURCH
 AGAINST TOBACCO
By Will H. Brown

The slogan of every auxiliary or ganization of the Mormon or Latter Day Saints church is, "We stand for the non-use and non-sale of tobacco" That the light is already bearing fruit is seen in large numbers of Mormon storekeepers who are refusing to no longer carry the weed in stock in any form. Here is sample of reports being received at headquarters in Salt Lake City, in ever increasing numb ers-this from Jessie M. Smith, pres ident of the Snowflaks stake (district) in Arizona:
 Since December first the sale of tobacco has stopped in all towns in this stake, with the exception of three Two of these have only very small population of our people,"
 Here is an instance showing how many users of tobacco look at the sit uation, reported by Lorenzo Touldon, manager of Union Mercantile Co.,, Smithfield, Utah, which firm has dis continued the sale of tobacco: "I have had many tell me that they wish that they could not buy it anywhere then they would quit using it."
 How Cowley, Wyoming disposed of tobacco is told in this Associated Press dispatch of Jan. 25th: Smoking and chewing of tobacco has been banned here. The action resulted from cam paign started by the Mormon church. Merchants agreed to stop the sale of tobacco. A funeral procession and two bands escorted the coffin con- taining the corpse of Lady Nicotine to a funeral pyre, where the casket was burned. Many sincere mourners wept while the Rev. R. A. Evens deliv- cred the funeral aration."
 As the Mormon church numbers 300,000 members, its attitude on the tobacco question, with practically perfect system of organization means much in the first against tobacco.

YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN ARE
 IN DEMAND IN BUSINESS

A countrywide investigation of employment conditions to get infor- nation as to the type of help in great est demand showed the following re- suits: 1888 of 2445 advertisements for help specified a business training, and 524 of the remaining 1107 ad- vertisements were for position that office assistants grow into. No other profession can claim fifth as great a demand. In fact this proves that there is a greater demand for busi- ness training than for all other trades and professions: the average income of lawyer is $500, of a doctor $500, others in proportion, while the average income of a business man IS $3,000 a year. There can be no ques- tion but that the business world of fers the biggest opportunities to the young man or woman.
 You can be sure of success if you enter the world of commerce properly trained and with reasonable amount of energy and ambition. You must be prepared. This is an age of spec ialization.

LA TOILETTE URGES
CAUSE OF IRELAND.
Senator Determined to Get
Vote on Question at
This Session.

Conditions in Ireland. which he
pictured as a place of desolation
and terror as the result of British
rule. were laid before the Senate
yesterday by Senator La Toilette,
of Wisconsin. in a speech urging the
passage of his joint resolution de-
claring that in the opinion of Con-
gress the Irish republic should be
recognized.
In the course of his address, which
was heard by packed galleries, the
Senator gave notice that he intends
to press his measure to vote at
this session to learn exactly where
members Of Congress stand on the
question of Irish independence. This
question, he said, has been met to
date with subterfuge and evasion.
The american struggle for inde-
pendence. Senator La Toilette said,
Is analogous to the present effort of
the Irish people to throw sff the
British yoke of oppression. He took
sharp issue with the slatement of
Lloyd George that Great Britain is
fighting Ireland for the same reason
that precipitated the civil war-the
preservation of her dominion.
