AT THE STRAND

Mary Pickfords latest and greatest
picture Through the Back Door" is
the attraction at the Strand theater
Thursday and Friday of this week.
This photo-feature, the basic idea
for which was supplied by Little
Mary herself, was prepared for the
screen by Marion Fairfax, well-known
scenarist. 1t is said to be quite diff
ferent from anything Miss Pickford
has yet attempted in that the story
touches upon an angle of marital re-
lations new 10 the screen. A wife
brings the spectre of divorce into her
home when she became a petulant,
dissatisfied sort of person through
grief for a child she believes dead.
The problem of restoring happiness
to this household falls to the lot of
Miss Pickford in one of her inimita-
BILE character relies. There are in
Vulnerable complications, some of
them laughable, others quite tragic
all leading up to denouement logical
and satisfying. Admirers of Mary
Pickford will see her in a little girl
part in this picture, and many pleas
ant surprises are in store for those
seeking something new in the way of
comedy.
Able support for Miss Pickford's
work is furnished by Wilfret Lucas,
Gertrude Astor, Adolphe Menjou,
John Harron, Elinor Fair, Helen Ray
mond, c. Norman Raymond, Peaches
Jackson, Doreen Turner and George
Dromgold

%NW oldest OF our
~l9lE states. While
II Is the last Of the states TO be
admitted TO the Union and as
such dates its existence only
from 1910, It's history before the
advent of white men dates bacl;
into the dim past. Here were
located those interesting people,
the Cliff Dwellers, and the ruins
of their cities high up in mac
cessible places have caused much
speculation IFS TO these ancient
people. tits supposed that these
Cliff Dwellers were the ances-
tors of the Pueblo Indians and
were decidedly more advanced
in civilization than their neigh
bors. They were probably of
the same race as the Aztecs of
y Mexico and understood irriga-
ton, agriculture and the build
ing arts.

( Pucbios that instigated the first
visit of tile white men. Padre
Nizan in 1899 explored this ter
ritory and he was followed by
Coronado In search of the myth
ical wealth of the Indian cities.
Coronado. though failing to find
the reputed gold, did discover
the Grand Canon of the Colo
RADIO with its wonderful scenic
beauty, which has become one of
the great assets of the state.
This region was considered
part of Spanish territory and
when Mexico declared its indie
pendence Ii became Il Mexican
province. After the Mexican
war the section north Of the ella
river was ceded TO the United
States and the southern portion
was acquired through the Gads-
den Purchase in 1853. In 1868
Arizona was separated from
New Mexico and made a terri
tory.
The derivation OF the name
Arizona is uncertain, but it pos
sibly came from the Spanish,
, meaning dry belt"

While the cattle business has been

STOCK SHIPPING DAYS.
Best Service Will BE Given Those Who
Arrange to Send Their Stock Out
on Friday and Saturday Trains.

BY arrangement with the Union Pa
cific officials for special service for
stock shipments leaving this valley ON
Fridays and Saturdays, the local rail
road can now give assurance of get
ting local stock to market without de
lay. BY cooperating with the plans of
Superintendent McShane, Platte Val
ley shippers may avoid the vexatious
delays often encountered under the old
hit or miss system. and be assured of
quick service over the main line from
Walcott to the Denver and Omaha
markets. \ bulletin issued by Superin-
tendent MsShane on Tuesday of this
week says:
I'VE have arranged with the Union
Pacific railroad to designate Fridays
and Saturdays as stock shipping days
for the shippers of the Saratoga x En-
campment Railroad. the understanding
being that on these two days the Union
Pacific will furnish special crews and
power to handle this stock promptly
when delivered at Walcott and run II
as far as possible without feeding.
THE Friday shipments will reach
Omaha for Mondays market and SAT.
urday's shipments will reach Denver
for Mondays market, but stock for
either market may be shipped on either
day.
1T is of the utmost Importance that
shippers confine their shipments to
these two days during the coming
season, and every reasonable effort will
be made to give good service through
to destination

LOWER FREIGHT RATES ASKED
Senator Kendrick Insists There Is I'M
peratiVe Demand for Decreased
Carrying and Market Costs.

Regular schedules for livestock
trains. so that the cattle of the west
may have an assured time for reaching
the terminal markets, improved and
cheaper transportation rates Inc "A
more enlightened consideration by the
banks Of the needs of the borrowers,
were among the suggestions made in "A
speech by Senator Kendrick to the
State Bankers Association of Wyoming
at the meeting in Sheridan this week.
Senator Kendrick treated his sub
ject in a broad and liberal manner.
The Senator intimated that in his
judgement responsibility for the restor-
alton of prosperity should be shared
equally between the consumer and the
producer. Each has n service to per-
form and all should be ready to help
the Nation get ON its industrial and
economic feet.
The present system of dragging
livestock to market. of tedious delays
and wasteful shrinkage with occasional
adjustment by payment Of damages. is
disastrous to the shipper and unpro-
fitable to the railroads." Senator Ken
drick declared.
In the opinion of the Senator these
evils could be greatly reduced If not
entirely eliminated if the shipper. the
railroads. the banker and all concerned
in "A wholesale cattle producing and
cattle distributing agency would work
together. The common good would be
served by such an association of effort
and "A continued food supply for the
nation could, under such circumstance
be assured. 1t is the contention of the
Junior Senator from Wyoming that the
whole Nation is vitality interested in Il
thriving, prosperous and healthy cattle
industry.
For the so-called service of today
there should be substituted methods
that would provide dependable move
ment from the point Of initiation to
the markets" said the senator. in my
judgement such service could be rem
dered without increased expense. and
would largely eliminate damage claims,
which would be vastly helpful to the

INSPECTING PROPOSED PROJECT
State and Federal Officials Here Today
to Observe Progress Being Made
OH Surveys for Canal.

State Engineer Frank c. Emerson
tant chief engineer of the United States
Reclamation Service, are in the valley
today inspecting the engineering work
being done on the proposed Sierra
Madre project, which it is estimated
will irrigate many thousands of acres
of now arid land on the east side of
the river in the n~eighborhood of Sara
toga. The gentlemen are well pleased
with the progress which has been made
and state that the survey should be
completed by the Goth of this month.
The surveyors will her give their at
tention to the proposed Pass Greek
reservoir project, the Big Creek pro
ject under which it is planned to ir-
rigate a large area in the neighbor-
hood of Encampment. and also to II
survey between Cow Creek and Spring
Creek. with a view TO providing a wa
ter supply for a great area of arid land
lying between those two treams 1t
is expected that this work will all be
completed early in October, after which
the various cost estimates can be
made.
When asked for his opinion regard
ing the Sierra Madre' project under the
river canal. State Engineer Emerson
stated that all he cared to say at the
present time was hat he considered
the outlook for the building of the pro
ject very encouraging.
The present indications are that the
cost per acre in the building of this
project will be less than on that of
any other project in the state. and

Referring to the function of the
banks in the present industrial condi-
ton of the nation, especially insofar
as the rancher and the farmer may he
concerned the Senator said he he
lieved in Il policy of more encourage
ment for borrowers.
IF | We're TO offer a word of coun-
sci to the banks as "A conclusion reached
from long observation of the livestock
industry. | would suggest that less
ENCOURAGEMENT he given to borrowers
during prosperous periods. and more
encouragement he given to them in
times of distress" the Wyoming Sena-
tor said.

The bridge across Pass Creek on the
new grade of the Rocky Mountain
Highway between Saratoga and Wal
colt is said to be completed with the
exception of some grading work on one
of the approaches, which will be com
pleted as soon as the necessary teams
can be brought to that point. after
which the new grade will be open to
travel through to Walcott.

there is little doubt of n favorable re-
port being made by the engineers in
