SALT I.AKK
IN
Perhaps every achool boy and
school girl has read of the Mormons
In Salt Lake and of the beautiful
temple, which was for years one of
the greatest works of art and archl
lecture the world knew And even
today the visitor sees something
magnificent when his eyes behold
thla famous structure.
They sav that when Brigham
Young, sick and worn out from his
trip across the desert, reached the
apot where the temple now stands
he rose from his bed. Jabbed his
cane In the sand and told the pio-
neer* of that caravan that here is
where the great building would
stand. And It stands there
A trip through the beautiful
buildings and about the grounds Is
one of that no traveler in the
west should miss. The grounds are
a marvel of beauty and the build-
ings all several decades old. are
still models of architecture and
beauty. The auditorium, where the
big pipe organ Is installed, is one
of the show places of Salt Lake It
v* a real building. Like Solomon s
temple, there Is no nalla In its struc-
ture. neither was the sound of the
hammer heard In Its building. Its
acoustic properties are the finest In
the world. About two hundred and
fifty feet In length and over a
hundred feet In width It Is an
eaB> matter to hear a pin drop and
a common whisper or even a rub-
bing of the hands together sounds
very plainly all over the big build
Ing. A speaker talking in
a common conversational tone is
easily heard and when the big pipe
organ, for years the largest In
America. Is turned loose it seems
that the music must be heavenly
An hour's recital ,1a given every day
from 12 M. to 1 o'clock and If you
are a minute late stuff Is off with
you for that day so far as getting
Into the tabernacle Is concerned
From the tabernacle entrance one
looks Into the main temple from
which the common herd .Is barred
and only simon-pure Mormons are
even admitted To worship in the
temple a Mormon mutt conform to
all Mormon laws, chlefeftt of which
is giving 10 per cent of all earn-
ings for religious purposes He
must drink no hot or cold tea or
coffee, eschew liquor and tobacco
and live up to the laws of the Bible,
the Book of Mormon and Doctrine
and Covenants These books are
the Mormon's guide Their faith
teaches the ultimate salvation of
all. but their religious fervor can-
not be questioned
Young and old Mormons. who
like to do It. dance and attend
picture show* but cards are barred
and wde unto the Mormon who
violates these rules If he expects to
worship with the mo«t high in ths
temple proper. Mormons who con-
form to part of the church laws and
violate others are called 'Jack'
Mormons and until they "come
clean"' cannot get past the outer
door of the temple Contrary- to
general belief that none but high
priests ever have been In the temple
prominent Mormons tell you that
when the building was completed
Brlgham Young received prominent
state dignitaries, every minister in
Salt Lake and every man of promi-
nence who cared to accept the invi
tat ion. all of whom pronounced the
great structure the finest thing they
had ever seen After this reception
the temple was closed and has nev-
er been opened again to the general
public The Mormon's reason for ad
mittlng none but the pure in
Mormon religious faith Is that this
beautiful building, erected for di-
vine worship, should be held as an
inspiration and aspiration to those
of their faith who fought the good
flght and for this reason only the
sound in doctrine and faith of that
class are ever permitted to worship
therein.
An assembly hall Is another tea
ture of the grounds, the buildings
all being enclosed by a high stone
wall A museum containing hun-
dreds of interesting relics Is an-
other Statutes of Hiram and
Joseph Smith and Brlgham Young
are also prominently located One
beautiful piece of monumental work
is that one erected to the sea gulls,
a bird native to that country, which
saved the Mormons In the early life
of the colony. It Is recorded that

'Twas at camp meeting a year ago

The Sudbury people'had a tent,
And I with Sister Hartley went
And first met Brother Plummet-
"A young man looking for a wife."

And he may look, for all of me.

PACKAGE
CALLED
"MAMMA"
A lare parcel post package
aroused suspicion a recent night In
the Topeka post office A clerk
picked up the package and was
turning it over slowly when he and
others distinctly heard the cry of
Mamma, mamma," coming from
He was in love with a beautiful
young woman to whom he was en-
gaged Cien she died.
loiter he married a woman who
was a constant burden to him.
Entering politics again, he ran for
congress, and again was badly de-
feated
He then tried to get an appoint-
ment lo the United States land of-
fice but failed.
He became a candidate for the
United States senate and was bad-
ly defeated
In 1856 he becume a candidate
for the vice presidency, and was
once more defeated.
In 1858 he was defeated by Doug-
las.
One failure after another -bad
failures— great setbacks. In the
face or all this he eventually be-
came one of the greatest men of
America, whose memory is honored
and loved throughout the world.
When you contemplate the effect
of a series of setbacks like this,
doesn't it make you feel kind of
small to become discouraged. Just
because you think you are having a

SIMPLY STUNNING
"Beads In peacock shade give an
exquisite dash of color to a white
Georgette blouse." says a fashion
paper, then presents a picture of
a woman with a far-away look in
her eyes on whom somebody has
pinned a towel, bib fashion, from
her neck to her waistline, the sple
decoration being a sunburst of
beads. It looks as picturesque as
a nutmeg grater and us handsome
as a washboard.
I would say that one of the flr*t
essentials in developing the quali-
ties of leadership is absolute devo-
tion to the task in hand. There is
a good deal of the spirit abro-d
these days or doing just enough to
"get by". That sort of an attitude
will not develop anything more than
mediocrity no matter what the job
is. Next I would emphasize the
matter of accuracy—accuracy of in-
formation and accuracy of workman-
ship in executing the task in hand.
Too many workers, whether it be
mental or manual labor, permit
thing else than the most complete
themselves to be satisfied with soni
information It Is a comparatively
rare thing to find a person whose
information in the field in which he
is working is altogether dependable
and the very best that can be se-
cured. and people naturally turn for
leadership to one whose information
is full and accurate. Then I would
sav that In order to develop leader-
ship. one must develop imagination,
and bv imagination I mean that
quality to see a little beyond the
I mere thing plainly at hand, and ap-
preciate other viewpoints and fur-
ther effects that may be involved.
; To these things there must of course
be added. In order to attain any
' considerable leadership. personal
qualities such as tact, fairness, faith.
' courage and other qualities of that
! sort And in addition still to all of
this, there Is to be considered that
