6 THE OGDEN STANDARD: OGDEN, UTAH, MONDAY, ftlAKCH 25T ft9T8." , r 1 j TODAY MARY PICKFORD in "AMARILLY OF CLOTHESLINE ALLEY" Continuing -r-v -7rrs-:rv ifi I The statement recently expressed I that ""Uintah county probably led the state in the institution of a popular competitive school sanitation contest. ( which "was a distinct innovation anti bade fair to makea sensation in school circles of the state, was contradicted by SupL W. N. Peterson of the Weber county schools, who slated that it was only fair to come forth ant! claim the honor for Weber county. SupL Earl Thompson, of the Uintah county i schools, recently had an extended in terview in a Utah paper to the effect that the competitive school sanitation contest was original with Uintah coun ty, says Superintendent Peterson, and he added that the idea had been bor rowed from Weber county, where it had been in effect three years, Tiie Uintah county schools started the competitive sanitation plan this ear, according to the article, and with a report of its success made to the state department of education, was tho statement that Uintah, county was pioneering the plan, a form of which 1 ad been tried throe years ago in We her county. ( "This statement would lead ope to H believe," said Superintendent Fetter son, "that the plan had merely, been tried here three years ago and aban- i doned. We instituted it in 1015 and I have used it very successfully every, year since, so what is now hailed as new in fiho Uintah county schools has been tried and thoroughly worked out in Weber county. In 1915 and in 191C a report of the plan was submitted to tho state superintendent of public in struction. There is no desiro on our part to enter a controversy on this subject but we merely wish to claim for Weber county what it deserves.'" The plan, as started in Weber coun ty in 1915, is that twice yearly a judg ing committee from the schools vis its each school of the district to in spect the score the school on its con ditions of sanitation and cleanliness. Prizes are given in A, B. C order for the winners and tho money is used to buy books which are the property or tho -winning school solely. This is an incentive to the students to clean up their school grounds and keep them tiloan, at least twice a year, and thus raises tho standard of sanitation and health about the buildings. "This plan was startod in Weber county," said Superintendent Petter son, and is still in use. It has not been given t;p and we challenge anyone to prove tlfe contrary." oo ROY STEWART in "Faith Endui-in'," a big new Triangle picture in five parts, and Pearl White and Antonio Moreno in "The House of Hate" will be shown at the Cozy tomorrow and Wednesday. 00 Today, tomorrow, Mary Pickford in "Amarilly of Clothesline Alley." oo Read tho Classified Ads, III EMIT OF EATIOIAL WORK OF COUNTY .

At tho meeting Supt, Petter son gavo a report of his recent trip east to tho National Educational con vention, tho spocial vocational conven tion at Philadelphia and of several trips to other cities and schools in tho east.

'9 j ,, ; J INDULGES 1 SPREE AT EHST0N1DIS10W 1 OK JAIL Tho municipal court held a short session this morning and disposed of a number of cases. The chief business before the court was of a nature that was flavored with alcoholic stimulant. One man was sentenced to pay a fine of $50 or take tho alternative of lan guishing in jail for thirty whole days while the fine spring weather makes tho outside world joyous. Tho man sentenced for being indiscreet as to the locality in which he indulged its penchant for strong liquor was Charles Bittner. Mr. Blttner, a young man somewhere under the age of 30, told the court that he had been a railroad shop workman and had in some man ner been led to leave a train at Evans -ton on his way to Ogden from Raw lins, Wyoming. In Evanston the lights looked so bright and he thought so much of the dismal hours he would spend in Ogden that he indulged freely while tho opportunity was at hand, according to what ho told Judge George H. Barker. The young man would have preferred to be permitted to return to Evanston, but the court held that the duty of imposing the sentence was plain, even though tho young man qualified his desiro to be come a citizen of the city to the east by stating that his ambition was to get a job at Evanston there was no hint that he desired to worship fur ther at tho shrine of tho flowing foun tain. The bailiff led him sadly out of the court room, Fred Wilson faced the court with a denial to the charge of being drunk in Ogden this morning. Mr. Wilson looked rather sleepy when ho entered a plea of not guilty and had his case set for trial tomorrow morning. There is another man named Anderson who did not appear and the court set his Case for tomorrow morning, also. oo WAR INDUSTRIES TO HOLD PRIORITY WASHINGTON, March 25.
