Yip-ee-ouh, Whoopee,


Yip-ee-ouh. whoopee,
He's here.
And Lord bless his good old soul
but the sight of him makes fellow
feel like a mitt full OF aces against
two pair. with his joviai smile as
broad as the whole Rocky Mountains
and his honest old heart as big as
the whole open range. It's the Cat
tleman We speak OF and his very ap-
pearance radiates good nature and
and unsquelchshls optimism. He's
the man who hogties the Blues in
double quick time and IL l. he who
rounds up the Giooms and shovos
them off into n deserted arroys TO die
forgotten. Yep. the mavericks Of
PsssimIsm never did have a welcome
in his domicile and he wears one Of
those Sunny Jim Smiles of the Twin
Six kind that grow only in the west
where he has thriven and prospered-
He's here.
Gee whiz but Il sure seems good to
roe him again.
And the Missus is here, too. and so
are the kids.
And sakes alivel but they sure are
some dandy family. They're the real
stuff. thorobreds every one Of 'em.
with lots OF good red blood in their
veins and plenty of pep and ginger.
They've come to town in their
Akbole hearted way to show the city
folks their. appreciation for helping
them defeat the proposed Herd Law,
which II IL had passed would have
meant their farewell to the lofty
mountains and studded hills OF the
range country where most of them
were born and raised. But IL didn't
pass. thanks to the town folks. who
gor back OF the cattle folks and voted
for them. and the cattle folks want to
show that their good old hearts know
a kind deed when IL is done for them
and so they are giving that big bar
becue today. the free moving picture
SLOW this afternoon. and the two big
dances tonight to all the folks of this
county and every other county. every
bit OF IL free. just as an Indication OF
how much they appreciate the help
that was given them in their time OF
need.
It's the western way of doing big
things. It's the cattleman's way of do
ing IL. Yep. this is the cattleman-not
the cowboy. There is difference.
The cattieman is the one who ewns
the cattle and the cowboy is the one
who looks after them for him. They
are both sons OF the great west but
the cowboy is little younger and
little friskier. He likes TO whoop
things up with six gun and little
pure unadulterated yelping that would
make coyote, In comparison. hunt
cover in shame and disgrace because
of his puny efforts. The cowboys are
good fellows. whole-souled and free
hearted. with an nnailoyed penchant
for lots OF fun and plenty OF noise.
The cattleman is more staid and
quiet. He has expended the cxuber-
ance OF youth and has gotten down
10 the solid business Of developing
the west BY raising and selling cattle
and incidentally. OF making money
while he In doing Il. He ia the
reputable. honest. law abiding and

peace loving citizen OF the range
country. His domain and his industry
is one OF the big assets of the Rocky
Mountain region.
SO IT is he who has donated these
elk. these steers. aad the money with
which TO prepare their setting and IL
ls his women folk who have donated
the -hrinEs" and the work OF prepara-
ton and serving to make the barbe-
cue a big feed" and a huge success.
And they have done IL. too. From
eleven o'clock today when the door
OF the Reable's building was opened.
on up TO the time Of going TO press
with never an indication of abaie-
ment the crowds surged in and were
served the finest barbecued beef and
elk they ever folded their lips over.
Yum. yunl IL just melted in your
mouth There is no way to describe
it, the only way to know is TO taste
81. And II you didn't eat any of it.
you have missed one OF the import
ant things OF your life. But surely
there wasn't anybody in Canon City
who missed the barbecue II hardly
seems possible that anyone in Ere
mont county missed 81. They all
seemed to be there. from the kinder
Earten kids on up to the folks in
their eighties or nineties.
Aad the cattle folks had enough to
feed them-yes. more than enough
Tney never do things by halves and
they certainly didn't stop until they
had done this job up right.
Starting last night at eight-thirty
Charles Reeves, commander-in-chief.
his chief barbecue lieutenant. DR.
wilson Pearson and all OF his assist
ants. began the important task OF
roasting the meat Just to the proper
turn. This crew knew. indeed. just
when that proper turn" was reached
as was evidenced by that meat today.
Did you ever in your life eat any
better? pardon us for being SO
enthusiastic because we ate a half of
beef all by ourself) They worked
all night long repienishing the FIRE
with scrub oak logs. basting the beeves
and looking after the minutest detail
in order that the thousands on the
morrow could have the best barbecued
meat of which they ever partook. II
was just about eleven today when
they finished their task and then the
feeding OF the multitude began.

the slogan Here's To The Open

and then from each wall to festoon

center are swung other festoons OF

pleasing and transforms an otherwise
barren room into place of beauty.
All along each wall are tackled the
