By EDWARD EMERINE
WNU Features.
Old Jim Bridger, at his
lonely fort on Green river,
talked to the leader of the
strange band and learned
these emigrants were headed
for the Great American Des
ert beyond the mountains. He
tried to dissuade the leader, a
determined sort of man, and
pessimistically remarked
that he would give a thousand
dollars if he ever saw an ear
of corn grown in Salt* Lake
valley.
The emigrants moved on, and a
hundred years ago, on July 24, 1847,
Brigham Young looked out across
• seared and desolate land of sage
brush and alkali, and said:
“This is the place!”
One lone tree clung to life in the
entire valley. Heat waves danced
and hot breaths of air came up the
canyon. If there were inward doubts
among his followers, none is record
ed. Obediently the band moved into
the desert.
Mormon Convert.
Brigham Young was a native of
Vermont and of Revolutionary an
cestry. He had become a convert
to the Church of Jesus Christ of the
Latter Day Saints, the Mormon
church. When Joseph Smith, the
founder, was killed at Nauvoo, 111.,
Brigham Young was chosen to take
his place.
Bocks and hills and desert did
nAt deter him. They were but
the materials with which he
would build. In this strange land
he and other Mormons would be
far removed from religious and
political differences. Here they
would have a land of their own.
A dreamer was Brigham Young,
but he was a doer as well. Perhaps
his eyes saw more than the mirages
on the desert that day. He might
have envisioned the Territory of Des
eret, the beginning of an American
epoch, the birth of a vast and pro
ductive region. The valleys and
mountains that his people were to
colonize later were before him, and
there was a temple to be built,
cities and towns to be laid out, in
dustries to be developed, canals and
ditches to be dug, and water to be
spread over the thirsty soil.
Faith Saves Crops.
The Mormon leader likened the
group to a swarm of bees beginning
a new hive. The Beehive became
their symbol, and all men were
workers. The hardships of crossing
the plains and mountains were as
nothing compared to conquering the
desert. There were discouraging
days when hunger stalked. Huge lo
custs came to eat their crops. “Have
faith! Have faith! Pray!” And
they had faith, and they prayed. Out
of the skies swarmed seagulls—thou
sands and thousands of them—and
they devoured the locusts!
Brigham Young stated his wants
and the group’s needs, and builders
set to work. The famed Mormon
tabernacle was built without nails or
steel.
Monumental Effort.

Lake Mormon temple are huge earth
stones, each weighing three tons,

MORMON SHRINE . . . Notable among Salt Lake City’s attractions
is the Mormon temple. Last of the Latter Day Saints temples in Utah
to be completed, the Salt Lake City edifice was begun in 1853 and not
completed until 1893. The temple is built of granite, many of the larger
blocks being carted by ox-teams before a railroad was built in 1873.
Seen in silhouette to the left is the famous Mormon tabernacle, noted
for its acoustics and organ.
Salt Lake and Flats Lure Tourists, Industries, Racers
There is no need to sink a shaft
to find salt in Utah. It is mined on
top of the ground where it lies many
feet deep on the shores of Great Salt
lake and in famous Bonneville salt
flats. Naturally the state is a large
producer of both common salt and
sodium products.
People who go to the beaches of
Great Salt Lake find that they float
like a cork in the water because of
its saline content, which ranges from

granite 20 miles away furnished the
material. Huge granite blocks were
quarried in a canyon, slung with
chains from heavy carts and drawn
by oxen to the site. Over 40 years
from the time Brigham Young des
ignated the temple site, the construc
tion was complete, the angel Moroni
set in place and 75,000 people took
part in the dedicatory services. But
Brigham Young had been dead for
many years.
The climate of Utah is dry,
stimulating and wholesome. The
sky is so clear that no cloud
specks it on 300 days a year.
Lacking rain, the Mormons pio
neered irrigation in America,
bringing water from the moun
tains to irrigate crops in the
desert.
Today, Utah’s chief crop is sugar
beets, but vegetables and fruits are
grown in profusion. Other crops
are wheat, oats, potatoes, hay, alfal
fa, corn, barley and rye.
More than two million sheep, 100,-
000 dairy cattle and a half million
beef cattle are grazed in Utah. Wool
production amounts to 20 million
pounds annually.
Manufacturing in Utah began with
the Mormon pioneers, who wove
woolen clothing, mined coal, quar
ried rock, canned fruit and vegeta
bles, made sugar from beets, in
stalled grist mills, slaughtered cat
tle for meat, made butter and
cheese, and utilized other raw prod
ucts at hand. The great copper
mines came later, with smelting and
refining of ores to follow. Bingham,
Magna, Tooele, Garfield and Provo
became mill towns. The Geneva
steel plant at Provo is the largest in
the West, with a mountain of ore
close beside it.

feet above sea level and has no
known outlet, except evaporation. It
is 80 miles long and from 20 to 32
miles wide. Great Salt Lake has
several fine beaches.
Because of its salinity no fish live
in the lake, but a small brine
shrimp, no larger than a man’s fin

and eastern parts there are skiing
and winter sports at high altitudes.
Utah scenery will compare
with any in the world. Here
are mountains as grand as the
Alps, sunsets that rival those of
Italy and Greece. Marvelous
canyons, mammoth stone
bridges, weird rock formations
and other master works of na
ture are found throughout the
state.
The mountain lakes and streams
provide fine fishing and the forests
abound in game—bear, elk, antelope,
grouse, deer, prairie chickens and
others.
Utah, once a formidable desert,
now teems with populous cities and

INTIMATE FELLOWSHIP WITH
CHRIST
LESSON TEXT—John 14:1-8. 12-18;
15:1-6.
MEMORY SELECTION—Ye are my
friends, if ye do" whatsoever I command
you.—John 15:14.
The hour had come for Cjur Lord’s
final intimate words with his dis
ciples. It was indeed a solemn, but
also a blessed, hour.
It was the night before the dark
est day in the world’s history- On
the morrow the Son of man was to
hang on Calvary’s tree for the sins
of the world—for your sins and for
mine. But for the moment he was
alone with his disciples.
The last Passover had been eaten
together, the betrayer had been dis
covered, and the Lord has told them
that he was soon to go where they
could not follow. Peter had, by his
bold self-assurance, brought forth
the prophecy of his denial.
The disciples were disturbed in
heart and mind. Then came from
the Saviour’s lips the words of com
fort, assurance and power which
have been the strength and solace
of his people through all the cen
turies. Our life both here and here
after is in his mighty hands.
We learn in this precious portion
of Scripture that
I. The Christian Need Not Be
Fearful (14:1-6).
That is indeed a good word—a
needed word! Troubled hearts are
everywhere—in the palace and in
the cottage, on land, in the air and
on the sea. There is a place of
rest, thank God! There is One who
still speaks the majestic words,
“Let not your heart be troubled,
believe in God, believe also in
me.”
His comfort is one which covers
the future life, for he says, “I go
to prepare a place” (v. 2). Concern
future destiny is settled at
once when Christ, Jesus becomes
our Lord and Saviour. We need
worry no longer. He has gone on
before to the Father’s house to pre
pare a place for his own. When we
come to that ever-peaceful shore
we shall not come as strangers, but
as sons and daughters to a pre
pared place in our Father’s house.
His words, “I will come again”
(v. 3), present meaning to the
future promise. He not only pre
pared the place, but he it is who
brings us there. The glorious hope
of his coming again is the Chris
tian’s greatest comfort and might
iest incentive to useful, holy living.
n. The Christian Need Not Be
Powerless (14:12-15).
Christ’s followers are not here in
a world ot sin and need as a little
group of hymn-singing weaklings,
thinking only of the day when they
shall be in a brighter land. Ah, yes,
they sing hymns and rejoice in
them; they look for a better land;
their weapons of warfare are not
carnal. But weaklings? Oh, no! God
uses them to do great and mighty
things for his glory.
Note the blessed words of Jesus,
“He that believeth on me” (v. 12).
The army of God carries the royal
banner of faith in a living Christ,
“Greater works . . . shall he do”
(v. 12). Jesus only began his work
on earth; its greatest development
was to be the joyous privilege of his
followers. We are ashamed that we
have not lived up to this great prom
ise, but by his grace we will do bet
ter.
“If ye ask ... I will do” (v. 14).
Someone has called this a signed
blank check on all the resources of
God.
111. The Christian Need Not Be
Distressed (14:16-18).
The Holy Spirit, promised by
Christ as the abiding comforter,
came so to abide in the believer on
the day of Pentecost (Acts 2).
The ministries of the Holy Spirit
are many, but here the emphasis
is on his work as Comforter. What
a blessed and helpful ministry, and
how much needed by distressed and
disturbed souls! The Christian may
count on him and not be dis
tressed.
IV. The Christian Need Not Be
Detached (15:1-6).
’ What \is worse than the feeling
that one does not belong to any
one else, that one is a detached
individual! That is never true of
the believer in Christ. We are as
close to him as the branch is to the
vine. We are in him.
Christ is the vine, and the be
liever as a true branch is united
with him. There is a oneness here
which is difficult to express, but de
lightful to receive and believe. He
Who is the vine needs no cleansing,
but the* branch needs constant, daily
purification by the word. Are we 1
permitting God’s Word to keep us
clean? Only if we are reading it,
studying it, meditating upon it
There is, moreover, a severer type
of purging to which the husband
man subjects the vine that it may
bear more richly, and that is prun
ing (v. 2).
Some branches must be cut away
altogether and burned (v. 6). They
Jack the evidence of life fruit
bearing—and must be destroyed.
If the collar of a man’s shirt is
badly worn, cut it off with a ra
zor blade and use it for a pattern
in cutting a new collar from the
tail of the shirt.
