The Hague, Feb. 27.-Widespread
indignation has been caused in Hol-
land by the torpedoing of seven
Dutch steamers in the western APP
proaches to the English channel, an
nouncement of which was made in
London Saturday. While official cir
cles remain gravely calm, there has
been an inevitable outburst Of deep
indignation on the part of the Dutch
newspapers at what the Amsterdam
Telegram calls "a blow in our face and
the greatest humiliation to which a
neutral state has been subjected"
The paper adds: I'VE confess inabil.
ity to see how the honor of our ma
ton a further be maintained by pro-
tests"

Winter Sports in Wyoming.

Winter is sometimes pictured as
a dark and dreary Season, full OF
long cold days and longer and
colder nights. Perhaps you have
heard that the sun shines brighter
in summer than in winter and this
may be true in some places, but
not in the sunny State of noun
famous state bejeweled in the sun
light; the spirit of happiness and
of jollity fills the hearts of both
young and old.
When jack-frost turns its rivers
and lakes into smooth, clear mir
rors and the winter spirits draw
fantastic designs on the window
panes, then is the liveliest, jolliest
season of all the year. Then it is
that the boys and girls truly fly
over the frozen lakes and rivers on
their wings of glittering steel, also
they climb to the top of the low
mills and glide swiftly, silently and
smoothly yer the snow for many
rods.
When the moon reflects its light
on smoothly frozen ponds and
sends a touch of warmth into the
hearts of the skaters it declares to
all the world that winter sports 10
Wyoming are pure and healthful.
When the good Old Father Sun
looks down from his majestic
throne from the heavens and lights
the way of the bobbers, it sends a
tiny sun beam to penetrate each
heart, and says, "Oh ! thou happy
Winter Sports" When the north
wind blows with all it's fury and
hastens the gait of the skeers, it
seems to whisper to the trees and
rivers as it passes, Look, 1 am
blowing them" And the rivers cali
back, "They're skating, skating,
skating" and the long, white, be-
jeweled hillsides, "Oh! they are
coasting, coasting, coasting." Thus
are the winter sports in Wyoming.

Our Wyoming Oil Fields.

Preparstions are now under way
for the rapid development of Wy
oming's oil fields and the opening
of spring will witness a period of
development psralleled only in
California and Oklahoma accord
ing to Warren Rice, president of
the American Oil Company.
The fact that the federal govern
ment has withdrawn 80 much of
the oil land in Wyoming together
with the fact that the navy depart
ment experts have declared the
fields capable of producing one
million barrels annually has added
impetud to the development aside
from drawing the attention of east
ern capitalists.
The Standard Refinery at Grey
bull, near which the American Oil
company's principal holdings are
located, is now running to capaci-
ty, and rs tank cars of oil leave
Greybull daily for Canada and
eastern points.
"People of the intermountain
s%tates," said Mr.. Rice, "do not take
great interest in the oil industry
In fact, talking oil to people Of
this region is like talking mining
to the people of Oklahoma. New
Workers are more interested righ'
now in the Wyoming oil field
than residents of the state.
! OF course this condition is easil,
, 1917-02-08

explained inasmuch AS there has
been little or no development of
oil fields west of the Mississippi
river in the north except for Cali
fornia.
However slow the residents of
Wyoming have been to grasp the
opportunities almost within their
grasp we can look for a big rush
early in the spring for the filing
on what remaining oil lands there
are. In fact this rush has already
commenced as is evidenced by the
advance in price of so many of the
stocks"

WERE MASTERS OF WORLD
Roman Legions su5Iueated Before As
simlIatina the Nations Their Vic
torious Armies Had overrun.

The military splendor of Rome has
fascinated Young and old for centu-
ries- Wherever one touches later
ancient civilization there are found
til evidences of the presence of the
i'oman legions. They are in Gaul,
IN England, in Germany. They are
n every country around the Mediter-
ranean basin. They are in the East,
in the heart of Asia. The courier
system for the dispatch of letters and
messages was in their hands. The
Iegions were the vanguard to make
the newly acquired territories habi-
liable and productive. Their station
airy camps became the trading CEN
tiers of,the communities from which
the adventurous merchants pushed
onward to spread with their wares
Roman thoughts and Roman habits
end respect for the Roman sway.
When the veterans completed their
years of. service they were colonized
and continued in their retirement to
carry on the labors which formed the
greater portion of their active serv-
ice.
The Roman army was human. Its
soldiers were men, some good, some
bad, some humorous, some serious,
some lovable, some despicable, but all
of them eminently human. The pa
pyrus excavations of the past hum
bred years have given us a glimpse
into the heart and soul of the Roman
soldier.-Christian Herald.

The School Code Report.
from the Kommerer Camera)

(From the Kemmerer Camera)
Word has been received from
Cheyenne to the effect that opposi-
ton to the proposals of the school
code committee ONES largely from
largely from those members of the
Legislators who have not carefully
studded the actual school condi-
taons, organizations and needs in
this state, nor what has been pro-
ven the best educational organiza-
tions in other states. 1t should be
remembered that this committee
was largely created two years ago
for this very purpose and that
much confidence should be placed
in its findings and suggestions, es-
pecially since it is impossible for
the legislature with all the bills
before it to familiarize itself in SO
short a time with that which is
best in educational progress.
There is nothing revolutionary
or even new in the changes sug-
gested by this committee to one
familiar with school organizations
already proven successful in this
and the other states. The funda-
mental changes suggested for Wy
oming have already been adopted
by the following number of states.
The state boards of education
are now organized in 81 states
Massachusetts, starting the first
about a century ago. The Ten
dency is to appoint the state su
perintendent and this is true in
Is states.
County boards of education are
in operation and proving
full in 30 states, county superin-
tendents being appointed in many
of them.
Supervisor districts in some form
are common in each of the 4S
states. These are not new in Wy
oming as one in this county has
been in successful operation for
more than Is years and this or
ganization in our towns and cities
has been used since the state was
organized.
With the deplorsble school con-
ditions as to lack of proper equip
ment, unframed teachers, poor bus
mess management, ETC., found to
be common in our rural schools
together with the improper educa-
tional organizations of our county
and state departments, all of which
has been brought out by the re-
ports of of the school code COM
mittee and the national bureau of
education, much weight should be
given by the legislature to the rec
concentrations Of the committee,
whose duty it has been to diagnose
our school conditions and needs
and prescribe the remedy

ed the branch hospital improv-
meut bills carrying $35 900 for i'm
provment of the Casper hospital
and $4,000 for Improvement of

affected later in the session by a
bill providing for the sale or the

duced during the last week are
House Bill 137, the game and fish
cries bill; House bill 1873, provid-
ing for a state. owned refinery;
House Bill ia, making it a mis-
demeanor to solicit any promise
or pledge from a candidate for
office, or for any candidate to make
such pledge; House Bill lob, pro-
hibiting courts from issuing in
functions restraining labor unions,
and house Bill lib, forbidding
state officials to be interested in
oil and gas leases. The latter bill
is similar to Senate File 29, which
was killed in the senate.
Gov. Kendrick has exercised his
veto power for the first time dur
ing the session, the victom of his
disapproval being House Bill g.,
which reduces the bond of admin
istrators and executors from dou-
BILE the value of an estate to an
amount merely equal to the valve
an estate.
The senate has passed the mill
tary bill, Senate File 4S, accepting
The provisions of the national de-
tense act. The house has passed
House Bill AZ, providing for the
non-partisan election of the state
superintendent of public instruc-
ton and county superintendent
of schools.
There is some talk of an extra
session of ten days duration, to be
devoted to consideration of the
school code bill, one of the major
easur of the session.
The state now has officially a
flag and flower, the governor hav'
ing signed bills providing for their
adoption.

ALWAYS HANDLE
SHEEP WITH CARE

Farm and Fireside. the national
Farm paper. published at Springfield,
Ohio, says in the November issue.
TO have good mutton, the sheep
must be in good health, fat, and
gaining in flesh. In preparing for
Strengthening the sheep should be
taken off feed for about fifteen
hours, with the exception of lambs,
which are liable to worry IL taken
from their mothers, causing a rise in
temperature. Always handle the
sheep with care. Do not chase, kick,
or pound them around, and never
pull them around by the fleece, as
this will leave colored and bruised
spots on the carcass. The proper
way to catch a sheep is by the hind
leg. neck or rear flank and hold
it by placing one hand under the
lower jaw and the other at the dock.
If these few precautions are carried
out the meat will be better"

1.-The Fighting Trail'
Episode 11-"Parched Trails"

At the time Won Bleck and RawIs
were holding consultation. The
new supply of ammunition which
was on the engine with the gatling
gun had been captured. There was
stu enough for emergencies, but no
one could be expected to put up a
good fight when he had to be too
careful of his shots. And neither
Rawls nor his brawling confederates
were truly brave, for they could
not summon courage to stand up
against odds. Knowing all this, Won
Bleck sought another way out. He
was still seeking when a fusilade OF
shots announced that the battle was
again in progress.
AS Rawls grasped his rifle and
rushed to join the fight Won Bleck
climbed swiftly up the scaffold of 4
drill. The situation called for gen.
eralship now, and Won Bleck felt
that crisis was impending. To give
up the mine .meant loss of what he
had come to achieve. To hold II
meant almost certain defeat.
