AND FAMILY.

The Famous Department Store is
having an interesting sale occasioned
by the new prices now in force. Mr..
Wolfson says that he is taking this
method of calling attention to he new
prices ON new materials and gar
ments, as well as adjusting his stock
to the prevailing prices.
Many articles are found to be only
half the former price. The marked re-
duction on the prices of staples like
sheeting, towels, etc. will be well
coined by the housewives of Lakeland.
Charming Bingham dresses may be
had in plaids and small checks and
with cunning little leather belts at
prices that are scarcely half of what
we have become accustomed to paying
in the past few years. Silk dresses
are also noticeably cheaper. Taffeta
is the leading material and several
Of the models shown are most at
tractively rufficd. Perhaps the pref
tiest gown shown is in black taffeta
with line of gold on each little ruf
file.

of these is shown, the newest being

RAWLINS, LARAMIE
AND CHEYENNE MAY
HIRE CITY MANAGER

bN r Ia. bdDcOtk.l
CHEYENNE. Oct. ia plan so
move that when the man who would
be most directly concerned by it
first heard of it he nearly keeled over
with laughter. but who later agreed
to give ii serious consideration. was
advanced before the Cheyenne
Chamber of Commerce at its month
ly forum meeting at the Masonic
Temple last night. The plan would
provide. in brief:
That Cheyenne. Laramie and Raw
Inns unite in hiring a city expert
a sort OF combined manager for all
three cities-at an aggregated ex-
pense OF $4,000 a year.
That this business manager con-
Germ himself. not with booze. gamb-
ling or other moral problems. but
that he devote his entire time to
such matters as parks. streets. paw
ing. water systems. taxes and ac-
counting systems. with the idea OF
saving the three cities. through his
business efficiency methods, much
more than his salary.
! That. in case the plan be adopted
the trio OF municipalities communi.
cate with J. f. Barlow. for three
years city manager at Dayton, Ohio
and recently hired by the city OF
Laramie to tell it what is the matter
/ with it and how its troubles may be
remedied.
The man who proposed all this
| was N. f. Corthell of Laramie. for
years one of the leaders OF the Wyo,
ming bar and a close student OF
municipal problems.
Taking up the city manager plan
Corthell pointed out that more than
200 cities have adopted it and found
it good. They have learned that il
gives them a business administra,
ton. moves them forward along the
right direction. takes their affairs
out Of politics. and reduces taxes
The pOliticians-the fellows who
profit by mismanagement-said the
speaker. are the only ones against
it.
But the city manager bill passed
by the last legislature was ruled un.
constitutional by District Judge
James H. Burgess of Sheridan. This
form cannot be adopted in Wyoming
until the lawmakers meet again, and
that is nearly a year and a half away
In the meantime Cheyenne. Laramie
and Rawlins could. If they would
hire a city adviser without having to
ask the Legislature about it. No
bond issue would be required. The
man merely would be paid to plan,
direct. and advise the city govern
ments In carrying our their business
projects.
COrthell recOunted Laramie's re-
