by fellow-Elks of Rock Springs who
were hosts at a dinner given in his
honor. In a short talk the comedian
stated he had been given a bad

the difficulties in which he figured
were due to more none than

He was given a good reception by
the citizens of Rock Springs, for the

THROUGH BILLS
TO ARGENTINA

Another forward step is about to
be taken with relation to our trade
with Argentina, negotiations with
the Government of which for the is
suance of through bills of lading be-
tween interior points in the United
States and Argentine ports are ap-
preaching a successful conclusion.
The present stumbling block is the
refusal of Argentine consults in this
country to issue visas unless the
bills of lading from interior points
in this country contain the name of
the ship on which the goods are to
be transported, and the name of the
company operating it. OF course this
is a condition w%ell-night impossible
to meet. Interior shippers cannot
say with certainty on what ship their
goods will leave for Argentina, and
it is probable that the Argentine
consults, or their government, if it
has so instructed them, will realize
this and the obstacle to the negotia-
lions will be removed. Once it is
done and the negotiations are made
effective, the trade with Argentina
will be enhanced.
Last year we did a business with
Argentina totaling S22S,000,0 900,
about evenly divided between inn
ports from and exports to that coun-
try. This is $4,000. 1000 better
than the trade Of 1922, showing that
the tariff did nothing to injure it.
AS a matter of fact imports, the two
years compared, increased from $751;
100000. The possibilities of a
large extension of trade between the
two countries are greatly appreciate

Every Link in Chain of
Anchor Must Be Perfect

The terrible effects which might re-
suit from carelessness In black
smiths work are well Illustrated by
the great importance Of every link in
the chain OF a ships anchor.
The anchor chains Of the LusItania
were 300 fathoms long-nearly 1000
feet-with weight of 125 tons. Every
link has to be carefully welded at the
proper temperature. Such work re-
quires infinite care, for in no case is
the saying truer than the chain is only
as strong as the weakest link. On
every single link in such chain the
safety of giant vessel snd the lives
Of perhaps 1000 persons may depend.
The earliest blacksmiths' forges
known were holes in the sides of hills,
called boomeries. The Romans in
vented the first bellows about the year
$50, using bladder of goat skin.
Nowadays enormous ingots of steel
are heated in furnaces, and the hy-
draulic forging press is taking the
place of the blacksmlth's hammer and
anvil. The hammer welded by the
strong arm of the village smith be-
comes. instead, hammer equal in
weight to one Of thousands of tons.

Lndians Had No Horse.

The Indians had dogs but not horses
before the white men came. The In
dian dog was little different from the
tanned wolf from which it is supposed
to have sprung. Eskimos were using
dogs for transportation when first
white men arrived. Though fossils Of
the forerunner of the horse have been
found in America, 1t is now generally
believed that these animals became
extinct many thousands of years ago
and that all horses used by the In
dians were descendants Of Spanish
horses. CorteZ brought horses to Mex
leo and De Soto is known to have
abandoned large number of horses
near the Texas border.
