Let Us Be FAIR

The people are expecting great
things from Governor Christensen,
and we believe their faith in him is
justified. But they should, in fair
ness, not expect too much. In the
first place no governor can do all that
he wishes to do. He faces many con-
ditions not to his own making. He
is subject to the limitations of exist
ing things. He cannot, no matter
how careful and efficient, greatly re-
duce taxes, unless general conditions
are favorable to such a course. He
cannot in moment uproot all bad
conditions, or change all evil things
He has to work with other men; he
has to face prejudices due to long
custom. Governor Christensen is a
natural leader, a fearless, indepen-
dent conscientious man, and he will
fill his office with ability and distinc-
ton. He carries into office a spirit
that promises much. He will have an
administration close to the people but
it will not be an administration MAX
ing any demagogic appeal, nor prom
Using impossible things. He is en-
titled to the support of the people;
and we must not handicap him at
the start of his work by demanding
too much.-Slayton Herald.

The Pied Piper
of Our Parks

The Nations Business: How many
owls has Uncle Sam? Where do his
wildcats spend their evenings?
These things, and other raw ma
terial of national park life and seem
cry, like looms and lakes, peaks and
panthers, geysers and grizzlies-to
say nothing of fish and forests, catar-
acts and catamounts scattered through
a score of states and often hidden
far from tourist trails-how can
Uncle Sam ride herd on all these var
minis, coordinate all this stunning
scenery, build roads, camps and hotels,
lure his people to frolic in these vast
national Fairgrounds
Out in Chicago, away back in 1914,
Franklin K. Lane put these questions
to a borax baron named Mather-
Stephen T. Mather.
"Look here, Steve" Mr.. Lane may
have added, fright now you're draft
ed into Uncle Sans service. So drop
your borax pick, and turn loose your
mule teams. Henceforth, your task
is to take our national parks out of
politics and put 'em on a business
basis. What this job lacks in salary,
it'll make up in excitement.
"Why should our tourist armies
scatter all their millions overseas
when right here in our own backyard
we have scenic steups that make
much of Europe look like the city
dump on rainy day?
eff the Swiss can take a piece of
cheese, sunrise, some goat tracks
in the snow, and a bunch of bare
kneed tenor guides in velvet pants
and yodel their high-priced hotels full
CT Yankee tourists every year, why
can't we learn to cash in on our own
fine scenery that so few Americans
ever see?
'"ul'"'t look so bad yourself
in velvet pants. Already, you love
.4e parks, and as an advertising man
you're the vessels whiskers! What
we need, to put more people through
our parks, is some Americanized
'Follow-the-man-from- Cooks public
ity work."
He took the job.
The year before Mather became
park director, park tourists number
ed only 235,000. Last season, .493,-
TIP people visited the parks and ma
tional monuments.
Mather has done a good job.

English Customs

MANY Of the quaint old English
AVA customs OF Christmas origi.
mated centuries ago. and are
known by little more than name
today. 1t was King Henry III
who introduced the elaborat,
Christmas dinner, which was held
at midday in olden times on &C.
count Of poor illumination. Even
palaces in those days were 1T with
very inferior tallow candles, ana
the only heat came from a huge
open fireplace, in which wood was
burnt. King Henry gave a great
feast, and himself carried II the
boar's head, which he placed be-
fore his eldest son, thus starting
custom which was observed un.
til Queen Victorias reign. "A
people depended entirely up0n
wood for their firing, in the olden
times, the bringing In OF the Yule
log was considered a great event.
1t was drawn in triumph from
its resting place in the forest By
servants dressed In fantastic cos
TUNES, and often the young heir
of the house would ride upon It
as It entered the great hall. Tall
candles were lit, and the min-
strels broke into Yule song.
