GOOD OLD SUMNER TIME.

Forty ten-day outings for college
girls, high school girls and employed
girls of all parts of the country are
scheduled to take place this summer
beginning in June under the auspices
OF the Y. w. G. A. These outings,
which are a combination of camping
fun and collective thinking on the
problems facing girls today in school
or business, are a part of the Y. w.

In the happiest sort of surroundings

OLD ROAD TO OPEN FOR TRAvp,

Steamboat Springs, Colo, June 25.
Gore pass road, probably the Oldest
wagon road across the continental d.
vide but over which, it is said, no au-
tomobile has ever gone, soon will he
opened to motor traffic.
The state and Routt county have
each appropriated $4,000 for the i'm
provement of the road and work is
scheduled to begin soon. Only a small
portion of the road on top of the d.
vide is in poor condition but that por-
ton makes the pass impossible for
automobiles. Gore pass road con-
meets Toponas in the southern end of
Egeria park with Kremling in Middle
park.
1t has easy grades and is said to be
clear of snow a month later in the
fall and a month earlier in the spring
than any other road crossing the d.
vide in this region.
Gore pass road was first crossed
with wagons in 1856 when Sir George
Gore, an Irish nobleman, and an army
OF servants and relatives, travelling in
30 wagons under guidance of Jim
Bridger, penetrated the wilderness be-
yond the pass in search of game. Sir
George is reported to have killed
of bison, elk, deer and an
telope during the three years that he
spent in the Rockies. During that
period his men built roads for him in
to many portions of the mountains.
In 1856, General Bella M. Hughes,
pioneer stage manager, opened a route
between Denver and Salt Lake over
Gore pass, taking advantage of the
work already done by Sir Georges
men. A stage company was chartered
operate vehicles between the two
cities, but the stages were never run.

hours, but in business hours he wants:
to think about business" Such is
the advice of Miss Flora Taylor
Young, educational director in one of
the large department stores of Chica-
go, to high school girls attending a
Y. W. c. A. vocational course. "a
girl is dressed well for business when
she veal a simple, stylish dress that
is becoming but unobtrusive, modish
but not exaggerated in style. Thin
georgette blouses are not businesslike.
The subject of appropriate business
dress for girls is being included in
most of the association business and
vocational courses as the matter of
suitable dress is believed to be a large
factor in the success or failure of wo-
men in the business world.

SMALL BOYS WRECK TRAIN:
INSPIRED BY MOVIE FILM

A desire to see a real train wreck
is reported to have led two 12-year-
old boys of Fort Bragg, Calf, to
wrap a logging chain around the in
side rail of the railroad track, one
mile from that city in an endeavor to
ditch the train. The engine and three
coaches passed over the obstruction
Had the chain been around
the outside rail the train, filled with
and children bound for a pic
mic, would have dashed into the creek
many feet below. The boys confessed
mat their desire to wreck the train
was inspired from a movie film.
