HEALTH INSPECTOR
VISITS CEDAR CITY

Mr.. ]. F. Johnson, from the Utah
state health department, was in
Cedar City yesterday on matters of
health. He is cooperating with the
local health boards everywhere in
the effort to make the state SAM
tary throughout. His special OBJ
jects of inspection are corrals and
outside toilets, which are to be
cleaned up this season as never be-
fore.
Hotels, butcher shops, slaughter
houses and barber shops also come
in for a share Of his attention, and
he is moving the leaders of each To-
cality to inauguFate q spring clean
up campaign, where 1t Is not already
going. He gives notice that the state
as well as the city will prosecute
those who persist in violating the
health and sanitation laws of the
state and ordinances of cities and
towns. He was pleased to learn
that Cedar had already started the
cleanup campaign.

THE SCHOOL EXHIBITS.

A visit to the exhibit of the work
done the past winter by the school
children of Cedar convinces us that
our educators are on the right track.
AT last they are learning what to
teach our children and how to teach
it. They are training the hands in
the way they should GO. They are
teaching our offspring to like work
rather than avoid it, as the old-fash-
toned school intended to do. Head
knowledge is needed, and is impair
ted. But head knowledge that is not
coupled with training of hand and
eye is more ornamental than useful.
The Cedar schools are evidently not
satisfied with knowledge alone. To
learning is added health and use
fulness. They have not reached the
ideal yet, but they are on the way.
The boys and girls who did that
cooking, sewing, shopwork, and so
on are already capable little men
and women. They are learning to
live. To abandon this vocational
training after so splendid a start
would be to turn back the clock.
The poorer the parent and the hard
er it is to pay taxes, the less he can
afford to advocate the cutting out of
that part of the school work that is
making his children self-support-
ing.

HARD TIMES

As soon as the idle workmen are
set to work they will have money
with which to buy. AS soon as they
buy, the stream OF money will be-
gin to flow through stores and ware
houses to factories and farms, and
the problem of hard times will be
solved. In communities like Iron
County, remote from the centers of
population, much public work on
roads and buildings can be provid-
ed to relieve the shortage of money
and Jobs.
Some say Cedar City is hardest
hit of any section in the West be-
cause she depends on sheep and cat
tie. She is. Others say she is
standing the money shortage won
derfully well. She is. This APP
parant contradiction is explained
by the fact that when the county's
financial head was cut off the coun'
~ refused to die. Work on hotels
roads, business blocks, reservoir,
and canals went right on when il
other sections such work had ceas
ed, to wait better times. The rea
son lies in the quality of our leaders
in our public officials and our com
mercial clubs. There has been n,
boarding of money. The good o
the community has been paramount
The result is that although hard
er hit than others, this communit
shows it less. Not only that, blu
this activity while the others are al
most dormant will give the count

WHERE DO WE co FROM HERE 7

Shall the Cedar City junior high
school go back to yesterday, or
forward to tomorrow? That ques-
ton must have an immediate an
swer. Because of the lack of school
revenue in sight for the coming
year, the Iron county board of edu-
cation has decided that the vocation
al training for which the Cedar
schools have become so well and
favorably known must be elimi-
mated next year. BY doing with
out the two teachers, Miss Berg
strom and Mr.. Warren Pendleton
and the materials necessary to con-
duct the courses, the board can save
$1,000. The board members and
county superintendent Lewis re-
greet this necessity exceedingly. Mr..
Lewis says it is step backward,
But the money simply is not to be
bad.
This economy leaves the seventh
and eighth graade pupils next year
without two extremely useful in
structors. Both Miss Bergstrom
and Mr.. Pendleton have made re-
inarkable records in their work this
year. In order to keep them next
year, the parents of the children
who will be in the seventh and
eighth grades ought to meet and
see if they do not want to pay a
tuition. If every seventh and eighth
grade pupil would pay sixty cents
a week next year, that would give
them the same splendid training in
cooking, sewing, housekeeping, car
pentering, and so on that these
grades have been getting this year,
We want the children who can do
things. We want trained hands for
the tasks of life. What they get
in training is worth sixty cents a
week many times over. There
ought to be a meeting, and that
soon; so that the school board
could be instructed to hire these
two teachers for next year and SC
that they would be guaranteed The
funds necessary to pay them. Mr.
Lewis knows the situation. HI
knows what children need. II,
knows good teachers and correc
methods. Ask him what you ough
to do in the matter Then get busy

THE BOY SCOUTS.

We sometimes wonder if the peo-
pie of Cedar appreciate the boy
scout work that is being carried on
in the community. The boys are
forming habits, building character
and gaining knowledge that will
be worth more than money to them
in after life. Scout work reforms
the rowdy and improves the sissy.t
It is lifetime investment In man
illness. Those who are generously
giving time and labor to the cause
ought not to 60 unthanked,

ent was given in the tabernacle as a
part of the regular services. 1t was

as well as numbers by the taberna-
Gle choir.
1t was remarkable program for
the quality of the songs and music
written in this section as we'll as for
the training and talent displayed by
the singers. An especially interest
ing and excellent feature was the M

Della c. Olsen, with music by Mr..
Frisby. Mrs. Olsen's "Bluebird OF
Happiness" was another song that
received enthusiastic praise, and was
especially fortunate in being given
by the really brilliant voice of Mrs
Annette Bettenson. 90 Sacred
Heart Wounded" by Mr.. Frisby
was another piece that aroused
much favorable comment. The by

out the church and need no inro

stars and Captain Of the track and
field team is vaulting over eleven #.
and throwing the discus over 10
feet, regularly. And it is expected
OF him, under favorable weather
conditions, to break the State rec
ords in these two events this spring.
Hunter, another B. A. c. star threw
the Javelin in today's meet l43 feet
4 inches and is doing better than 1876
feet, the State record, regularly.
Hunter is also strong in the broad
Jump, discus and hurdles. Fife,
proved himself to be a close second
to Webster in the pole vault and a
travelling machine on the 44O yd.
run. Lunt and Daley, two new high
jumpers, cleared he bar at 5 feet
