Howard. Salt Lake City architect, be-
lieved murdered en- route TO San An
tonic, Texas officers were preparing
to retrace the southern end of the
trail of the missing mans car, in an
effort to solve the mystery.
Howard left Salt Lake City Deem

of road runs through mountainous
country, uninhabited, covered with
sage brush, sand dunes and scrubby
desert vegetation.
ii. o. Hurd, the bandit victim of
the suspected murderer has gone to
Eagle Pass to join the party which
will leave from the Texas end of the
route.
Hurd rode with this man from Cal

car in which Howard left Salt Lake
City on December Z.
Howard was last heard from at Las

going to Phoenix. His car showed up
few days later in San Diego, and
officials think he was murdered and
his body hidden somewhere along the
lonely road west Of Las Vegas where
it enters the Mojave valley.
Mr.. Hurd was given an opportunity
to study the man closely and also his
companion, who was picked up in FL
Paso. He will go along with Sheriff
A. Hauser and the two men arrested
with the car and retrace the route
followed when the car came through
from California.
From San Diego they will retrace
the way back TO Las. Vegas, enlist

SINCERITY and COURAGE

dulge in that most fatal weakness OF
all, sclf-pity. We almost conclude
that the very stars in their course are
moving against us.
Patience alone can make us keep On
carrying on. Ii our sincerity, our
courage and our patience enable US 10
reflect and realize that we shall rear
if We faint not" then we can plug
and plod until victory is attained.
A spirit of altruism must not be
left out of the reckoning when We
analyze qualities that make for prog
ress and achievement. Not he who is
bent merely upon the amassing of mil
lions and dictatorial powers. But nc
who earnestly aspires to become the
servant of all stand the best chance
of winning 24-carat success and truly
satisfying satisfaction.
A trees size and strength are gov
crned by the size and strength of its
roots. Not perhaps all men or all en-
terprises, but certainly most men and
most enterprises that rise far have
first put down the right kind of roots
deep into the soil, have first built the
most solid of foundations, have first
studied and planned and swcated long
and laboriously. Wherever you see u
towering oak, depend upon it that it
has corresponding roots.
In the higher reaches of life, in the
higher reaches Of business, knowl-
edge of human nature, in most in
stances, is vital. Such knowledge can
come in the fullest measure only from
human sympathy. One must be, rs
the Latins aptly express it. sympatico.
