Rather proud of it, too? Perhaps you don't know the company you are in as shown by the record of the Standpatters, beginning back a few thow- sand years.

But there is one thing for which we can} heartily commend the hierarchy, and that is a monument cost-| ing about $40,000 to be placed on the grounds of the temple at} it Lake City. : , Doubtless you think the marble shaft is to be erected in honor of one of the founders and fathers of the sect, but you are wrong. This monument is unique in that it is to be erected in gratitude to birds of the air. i It's a pretty story—a tale of real life. When the Mormons first settled in Utah they had great difficulty in irrigating the arid valley. Their food supply was almost exhausted, but their | first harvest promised to be a good one. Then came a plague of | pers. The green land seemed destined for destruction. | tion seemed fated for the Mormons. And then came Salvation in the shape of the seagulls wHich dwelt in numbers in} the reedy marshes on the shores of the great Salt Lake. The} Birds destroyed the grasshoppers, and since then the laws of | Utah have protected the beautiful, graceful winged things. We like the gratitude of the Mormons., We like their monument idea. It is bound to teach the coming generations to have something of loving kindness for our “little brothers of the air,” as the good St. Francis called them.
