If RaWlins wants natural gas for

rave TO step out and get il.
If Rawlins wants il refinery. glass

industry it will have o step ont and
grab onto each with both hands-and
hold tight all the while.
After Rawlins gets its gas service
there is no doubt about being able to
induce experienced manufacturers to
investigate opportunities existing
here. When factories are blish-
ed, they in turn will draw others with
less effort on the part of local people.
AS an instance OF how this works,
we have only to point to our sister

least, that progressive little city of

a nominal rate. These rates are
much lower than are charged in other

HOSPITAL AID SOCIETY
MAKES GOOD

Did they work? Well, you should
have seen them. Who? The women
Of the Hospital Aid Society. They
took possession of the new Hospital
last Wednesday, and from hat time
until Saturday night every day
found them on the job and digging
In. The task before them was a
huge one-that of getting the hos
pital ready for the exhibition Sun
day. The Superintendent and the
nurses could not reach Rawlins until
Saturday, and 1t was up to the Aid
to make the place attractive. The
Sewing and Furnishing Committee
was not equal to the task in so short
a time and many members Of the Aid
and Its friends we're pressed into
service.
They cut. made and pressed white
curtains. for every window In the
Hospital land thought 1t was as big
as the Capitol at Washington). They
shrunk the material for the bedside
screens for every room, ironed It, cut
and filled the screens. They made
up beds. and did . thousand and N
other things. We cannot we'll give
the names Of all the women who
worked, but We do know that they
did . fine job, and that they we're all
mighty tired on Saturday night.
Again ON Sunday they helped in
preparing sandwiches for that crowd
Of visitors, washing dishes. and
generally useful. being aided In the
serving by . committee of senior and
Junior girls of the high school.
Their reward? The dainty, at
tFactiye appearance OF the Hospital
on Sunday; the knowledge that they
had had 4 hand in making It SO pre-
scntable: that they had accomplish
cd o remarkable thing in 10 short q
time. The women Of Rawlins have
certainly worked hard and faithfully
for the, County Hospital, and expect

CELEBRATE GOLDEN
WEDDING ANNIVERSARY

In a Rawlins home today an event
Of most unusual occurrence Is being
quietly celebrated by one OF our old
time. venerable couples.
Fifty years ago today. December
18th, 1871, Rhoda s. Tilden and
William Daley were united in the
holy bonds OF matrimony by the
Rev. r. II. Kirby, in St. Marks
Church, Salt Lake City. Utah. Wit
.nesses signatures on the marriage GER
l~tificate are thai of Harriet NJ. futile,
wife of Bishop futile. Bishop of the
Diocese which at that time COM
prised the Territories of Montana,
Utah and Idaho. The other sub
scribing witness Is Daniel Tilden
brother OF the bride, and at that
time cashier Of the Martin 4 Wilson
bank of Cheyenne.
The winter of 1871 was one of the
most severe eve known in the Rocky
Mountain region. The wedding party
had left Evanston. Wyoming, on n
Ct the Union Pacific's passenger
trains, the term Limited did not
apply those days except when it re-
ferred to accommodations. This
train became s%nowbound at Echo, and
delayed for nearly twenty-four hours.
1t was intended that the marriage
ceremony should be held on Thurs
day, but reaching Salt Lake City on
Friday. not a very desirable day for
such an event, and not being super
stitious, they were married on that
day.
Mr.. and Mrs. Daley located per-
manently in Rawlins in the year
1873. although they were here fire.
quently in the interval between 1871
and '73. Mr.. Daley held the posi-
ton Of Superintendent in the B. and
B. Dept. OF the Union Pacific rail-
road. and was in charge Of the con-
,struction gangs which built the
depots, hotels, and other principal
buildings along the line from Chey-
enne to Ogden. Many Of these old
buildings still remain, a monument
to good workmanship of the early
day. when the Red Man still Wed
with his p~ale-faced brother for
supremacy Of the western plains.
Divine Providence has looked upon
this couple with unusual favor. To
them eight children were born, the
two eldest dying in early childhood.

cepttOn OF Perez and John. who live
In San Francisco, and owing to bus
fness engagements are unable to be
present. The two latter hope to make
amends by paying a visit home during
the holiday season.
History does o record. nor
people recall, many Instances Of this
nature to be celebrated in the West
by its pioneers. A Golden Wedding
Anniversary is a most significant
event in tbickly populated centers of
the East. where civilization has
progressed for many hundred years.
Wyoming has had but very few
Golden Anniversaries. The Repub-
ltcan joins numerous friends in most
hearty congratulations to Mr.. and
Mrs. William Daley today. May they
enjoy the fullest this happy occasion.

ROLL CALL

Returns from the Red Cross Roll
Call and the Salvation Army Drive
are still incomplete. but the reports
must be closed soon by the local
officials. If any county committees
have funds in their hands. same
should be forwarded to Rawlins at
once.
Some OF the outside precincts and
towns have made new and c%reditable
records. while a few have fallen
down. Saratoga, Bags and Fort
Steele have not been heard from at
all. These are the only places in the
county which have made no reports.
Encampment. Savery, Dixon. Med
icine Bow and Elk Mountain have
come in well. and Hanna, too, when
the fact that the mines are not work
Ing is taken into consideration.
Difficulty. where Mrs. Chas. Ellis was
chairman, has made a fine record.
This Is a small rural community, far
removed from any town, and not a
single person residing there turned
down the two worthy causes. Mrs.
Ellis reports to Chairman Hadsell as
follows:
Salvation Army --s2S.5O
Red Cross Memberships - 1900
Ioldl
This return shows not only will
ingness on the part of the people of
that section which is commendable.
but also that Mrs. Ellis is Il worker
and a solicitor par excellence.
The county returns to date are as
follows:
Red Cross:
Rawlins Memberships ----s 927.Oo
RaWllnS donations 26.l3
Outside Rawlins member
SHIPS 2Sl.OO
Outside Rawlins donations $50
Salvation Army
Rawlins donations ----$ 53S.4S
Outside Rawlins donations 1872
Total 656.40
Grand Total ------$1896.O2
When the Drive books are closed
and the money turned over t % the
two organizations. the mounts con-
tributed by the towns and precincts
OF the county will be published sep
arately. SO that everybody may know
the work done by each, as we'll as
the totals. The Red Cross asked for
800 memberships only. not for do
nations, although some were so gen.
erous as to make donations to its
local work. There was no limit in the
case OF the Army, and a number Of
contributors therefore paid the dol
lar membership and donated the rest
OF a FLYER to the Army. On the whole.
and in view Of general conditions, the
o Call and Drive was a success.
and Chairman Hadsell and his assist
ants are to be congratulated.

TESS OF THE STORM COUNTRY,

StA~AN AAh~oo ny N1AC
Dramatic Club to make ''Tess of the
Storm Country" q success proved
colossal Friday night, December 10,
at the Strand Theatre. Although the
play was postponed for a week on &C.
count Of illness. and the two OF the
cast played under extreme tension,
did not, however. detract from the
perfected acting of the cast and has
made known to Rawlins that we NO
longer consider our Dramatic Club
just amateurs, but all star perform
ers.
Due to the interminsble success on
Monday night. the cast has been
asked r. >peat the play In order
that thos. no we're unfortunate will
have IN oplI- unity to see It.
Perhaps the most difficult role
from the standpoint of dramatic
technique was played by Josephine
Phelan. s.Toss" q notherless little
girl. who's. act and thought was for
her daddy. The tender emotion dis
played by Miss PhelAn Is abe patient
ly awaited the outcome Of the trial
of her daddy who was accused OF
killing the game warden and the
many obstacles which she was forced
to confront In her lonliness was an
accomplishment.
Joker O'Mela who played the
part Of Frederick Graves. son Of a
money master, who recently returned
from q Seminary. was superior. The
public has always looked forward to
seeing Joker and in Tess of the
Storm Country" he played his role
with exceptional skill and 1t is hoped
that We will e him appear once
again as Frederick Longman.
Mr.. Breitenste.n, or Old Man
Graves the money master played his
act to perfection. Mr.. Graves held
his neighbors in awe of him. He was
ready to kick the under dog. but
when put to q test he revealed an
inner forgiveness and q desire for
Atonement as we remember in the
last act, the confession of Teola. The
dramatic ability shown by Mr.. Brett
enstein was exceptionally we'll pre-
scented.
