MY AND JOLLY. 1 B- J , .. , B I PRESENTS ARTISTIC PMIilE STUDENTS OF JUNIOR HIGH SHOW ARTISTIC WORK IN I THEIR PRESENTATION OF "HE I CAME TO EARTH." I Seldom, if ever, has tho Ward Hall 1 boen packed with a larger or more I npprcclat&vo audienco than it held ft "Wednesday evening to witness tho I Junior High School presentation of B tho sacred cantata "Hp Came to I Earth." In selecting this entertainment B again for the school's holiday sea- son performance this year, Miss Fen- ton and her Junior High teachers showed excellent taste and good B judgment. Nothing could bo raoro ." appropriate for a Christmas pro- w 'k gram by pupils of Junior High jjm school age than this charming por- H trayal of tho story of our Savior's 9B birth. All of tho simple, yet drama- B tic incidents leading up to and in- K eluding tho final scene if tho Christ B Child crodeled in a manger mako n IEr strong appeal to tho religious emo- "' tions of young people and stimulato aMr- their imagination, powerfully. : HBF!"iBy repeating thov performance thlr Efc year, with practically tho same pu- flffi Pils in tho fading roles as wero in IPx last year's presentation, opportunity HI )".;.. was given for those who saw them B both to noto the remarable improve- 9 ment ono year of development and another coaching of their parts has I . made in these young people, But perhaps thobest feature of it 1 nil is that tho realization these pu 1 pils have of their own improvement lias added to their self respect and the respect they have for their B teachers. Tho feeling throughout B the audiehqo was that of real satis- faction and prido in tho excellent B 'work of their boya and girls. Every H featuro of tho performance was pre- s'ented with" an artistic finish seldom B seen in school productions, while tho B :lear strong tones and good enuncia- B tion of those who had speaking parts B were a joy to thoso in the back part B of tho hall. H While everyone connected with tho fi entertainment is deserving of ap- "Hfl? preciation, yet special mention should 17 be given tho teachers most active ii in directing tho work of putting it yi on. Miss Fenton as chief executive (M or manager, keeping the orgonlzn- tion on tho job. Mr. Thoma3, as dramatic coach and prompter of I clear speech, Mr. Dalloy as musical jf director. Miss Evelyn Palmer as jf snost reliable and enthusiastic ac I ' companist, Miss Mildred Lewis as ft designer of costumes and composer (k and director of dances, and Mr. B Pendleton as chief property man B and stage carpenter, Mrs. Ethel Per B ry as stage directress and make up B artist. All if theso gnvo without B stint of their time and energy to B mako the affair tho success it was. B Without question this was one of B tho best costumed performance we B have had, and many of the scenes B were highly artistic stage pictures Tho chorus work, while it may have B lacked in strength, was decidedly H sweet and tho solo parts were well H received. The dancing was excep- H tionnl'for a school production. Par- 8 ticularly noticablo was tho ensemble H work in the Angel dance. Such un- H ison of rythmic action from n group Wk of beginners shows splendid train- H ing and reflects greaj credit on Miss K Lewis, H Tho exceptional large audience in H attendance and the splendid ntten- K tioihroughout gave tho finishing B touch to tho performance. Any H community tho size of Cedar City, HL capable of putting on a school en- Hl tertainment such as this and fully K appreciative of its value is to bo B congratulated. n uu .... NO MEETING.

Many prominet citizens, and quite a few who arj not so prominent are now suggesting that the City Fath ers prepare for the paving of Main Street in tho business section. Wo have a good Main street, well graded and capped, at present, but in tho especially dry seasons the capping is easily whipped up by the winds prevailing in this locality, the dust invariably entering tho business houses and doing great damago to goods. In fact tho business houses lose thousands of dollars annually by giods being spoiled by tho excessive dust driven in tho stores by tho winds from Main street Besides that tho street as it now stands is not as nice looking as it should bo for a city as progressive as is Cedar, and during tho wet sea son tho capping becomes cut up by autos and wagons until the street looks liko ono of tho old time cord uroy roads over tho swamps in tho marshy sections of the stater In tho wet seasons thoso who cross Main street afoot many times have to wado anklo deep in mud, which would bo a thing of tho past if the street was properly paved. And also during the muddy season, it is next to impossiblo for an auto- mobilist to get to and from his car 'without attaching himself to some- 'where in tho neighborhood of five 'hundred pounds of tho best mud that lays out of doors, piling it into his car several times a day, until tho machine becomes so loaded that its 'power is not sufficient to carry it ' along. By all means let's have a paved main street, at least, and if possible other streets adjoining. uu STAR LEGION HOLDS ANNUAL MEETING.

Winterrose, of Hober City, an expert licensed embalmer, has been persuaded by tho Cedar ii'umber Company to locnto in Cedar and open up tho business of embalm ing. Mr. Wintcrroso will havo his par lors in tho uppor floor of tho Cedar Lumber and Commission Co.'a build ing, which is now being remodelled to suit embalming purposes, and necessary equipment added.

He has jhad quite a lot of experience with his 'father who is an expert ombalmcr himself, and tho schooling Mr. Wint Grroso has had eminently fits him for 'tho work of embalming. , SOMEONE SHOOTS AT HIM. Whilo coming up from St. Georgo yesterday afternoon Joo. Farnsworth, tho mail contractor, was fired at on this sido of Leeds las hort distnnco" Ha was driving along with a light i load when suddenly ho heard a shot, and immediately a crosh of glass as a bullet zipped through his wind-, 'shield, just missing him by a few inches. WJIr.-Farnsworth'8toppddwio-Jpol ahead to seo if ho could distinguish who was firing, but saw no ono. Ho! was considerably startled, but decid ed to drive on, which ho did and was not further molested. Tho time was 5 o'clock and it was too near dark for anyono to bo hunt ing, consequently it seems that a do llberato attempt was made by some one to injure' Mr. Farnsworth. Tho gentleman has no idea who tho person that did tho shooting might bo and" does not have an enemy in tho country to his knowlcdgo that would "bump him off" by the gun route. I . on LIBRARY BOOKS.

COMPLETED BY SPRING. 00 At last the city fathers havo put men at work on tho job of opening up what is to bo known as College Avonuo from Fourth East stroot to main street whoro tho avenue is al ready opened and has recently been widened. The avenuo nsw undor way is $o bo wldo enough to allow for side walks on each sido of center, and room enough in center to allow of nutos passing each other. For tho present tho avenuo will bo opened nnd graded form Fourth East to Main, and from thero on to the Collcgo tho walks will bo put down when tho wenthor is permiss nblo in tho spring. This is a stop in tho right direc tion, nnd when this avenuo Is com pleted it will ba far tho prcttlost in tho city, nnd will also outshino any strcot tho city boasts of at tho pres ent time.

Gordon Hunter tolls us that tho i band is preparing to serenado tho ,town Xmos night, which is good news, as tho music that this officiont .organization renders always enlivens I the hearers. , For tho past two or threo years tho band has serenaded on holidays,1 and it seems to us, the appreciation has not been as much as it should havo been. But we nro convinced that this time tho efforts of tho band will bo fully appreciated, as the spirit of Christmas will not be of the fullest unless wo receive a littlo of tho in spiring music which tho Cedar Band is capable of rendering. Wo hopo that everybody who pos sibly can will let it bo known that I the offorts of tho boys tf- pleaso them! i is taken noto of, nnd will so express i themselves, I Good Christmas Dinner nt Cedars Hotel 00c.
