SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Decem-
ber 30.-This holiday week has been
an unusually bright one for the people
of Utah AS Utah is the leading silver
producing State and Salt Lake City the
center of the greatest mining and
smelling district in the world, some
idea may be gained of the importance
to this State of the Presidents silver
buying order. State leaders and others
in all walks of life are joining with
the mining leaders who have taken a
new lease on life. Not that all of
them are satisfied, but they regard the
Presidents move as a step in the right
direction. 1t is a recognition Of silver
declare, other steps will follow, and
silver mines and those depending on
them will again prosper.
Prosperity already was approaching.
Evidence of it was in the air Christ
mas buying was the heaviest it had
been for four years. and the buying
public showed decided inclinat ation to
indulge in luxuries. Through the va
rious public agencies, jobs had been
obtained and pay checks had taken the
place of relief checks. The men had
worked and earned their money and
felt they would continue to be en-
ployed. It was their right, and they
exercised that right in providing real
happy Christmas season for their fam
lilies.
The increased price Of silver af-
fected other stocks. The Salt Lake Stock
and Mining Exchange has been busy
place since the good news reached
there. Mining stocks have been espe-
cially popular but the general market
trend is upward. Wool and sugar prices
have advanced, and these are two i'm
portant crops in Utah
On the 2O-year average, Utah has
produced one quarter of the nations

Uncommon Sense
Picking a Job
BY JOHN BLAKE.

TN time when jobs are not easily
come by, almost any occupation
seems desirable. But for young
i men to benefit by the recovery that
Is certainly on It's way, an idea Of
what they want to do Is extremely i'm
portant.
I suppose that great many of them
would rather be motion picture actors
than anything else. But there are so
many people who want to be motion
picture actors that the field is already
overcrowded.
Incidentally, strange as it may seem
to "speakie' fans, there are less than
3 men in 5000 who have the kind
of ability that acting Of any sort re-
quires. Therefore, I shall leave the
film business out.
If there is something (outside OF the
pictures) that you are really interested
in, so much that you would rather do
that than anything else, that is the Job
you should choose for your life work
You can test your fair for it by asking
yourself if you would prefer to do that
one job for a small salary than any
thing else for big one. If the answer
Is yes" make every effort to get into
that kind of work, and if you are forced
by necessity to do something else for q
time, go back to your first love as soon
as an opportunity arrives.
Persons who are most successful be-
gan their working life by doing some
thing that they wanted to do more than
anything else or switched to that kind
OF an occupation at the first chance.
But even of you were not obviously born
for some particular calling, as painter
or a novelist Is, there is always some
thing that you can take up. After that
1t will depend upon you whether you
succeed or fail.
X y
Remember one thing. Determination
Is absolutely necessary. No Smatterer
will ever amount to anything.
Make up your mind that you will give
your chosen occupation a long, hard
trial, that you will sacrifice fun, even
sleep, for it, if you expect to win in
the end.
Competition is constantly increas-
ing. Education is far more widespread
today than it was even 10 or Is years
ago. There will be no room for the
snap hunter" in the next few years.
But don't get discouraged. Others
will rise to success in that period, and
you, if you have grit and native ability,
may be one Of their number.

Everyday Psychology
BY DIR. JESSE W. sPROWLs.
Honesty.


There seem to be two sources Of hon
esty. You may inherit it or you may
acquire it. You probably get it both
ways, more or less.
Intelligence is inherited No amount
Of formal schooling, apparently, affects
this basic individual foundation. Your
honesty depends upon your background
Of native intelligence, as surely as the
night follows the day. That's why you
find honest Abes" emerging from the
wilderness. Or an honest man may get
his start in the SlumS of a great city.
A high -grade native intelligence Is
likely to drag him out.
To some extent you acquire your
honesty. Schools and colleges have
practically nothing to do with this por-
ton of ones intelligence. Schools and
colleges, after all, represent but very
small part of ones general intellectual
guidance. Ones constant associations
outside the school are vastly more in
fuential.
I believe that the newsboy who de-
livers my paper is getting about the
best training in the world in the prin-
ciples Of honesty. His patrons are
pretty likely to keep a close tab on the
monthly bills If they don't, they are
doing him a future injustice. An hon.
est job, honestly done, ranks first
among the forces that make for hon.
esty. When you lose your ambition to
shoot square in a business way, you
have disclosed your deficit in native
intelligence, which is the sustaining
power Of honesty.

Helps for Beautiful Flower
Garden Quilt.
By FLORENCE LA GANKE.

Nancy had seen so many hexagons
for Grandmother's garden quilts made
incorrectly that she decided to discuss
the pattern with her quilt club men,
bers. She asked them to send for the
leaflet giving the full-size pattern and
the diagram showing how to set the
blocks together. Then she discussed 1t
with them, saying:
You notice that I give two size
hexagons. You may use whichever one
you prefer, but I think the quilt is
prettier if you choose the smaller one.
And, remember, that the seams have not
been allowed in the pattern as given. I
suggest that you take the pattern to
tinSmith and ask him to cut pattern
for you Have him bevel the edges
Then you will have a true pattern to
use in cutting the many, many pieces.
