NEW CATHOLIC ORPHANAGE
BEING BUILT TORRINGTON

The work will soon be started On
a new 100000 Catholic orphanage
which will be located near Torring-
ton. 1t is expected hal excavating
will start some time during August
and that the building will be com
pleted as soon as weather conditions
will permit.
A great deal of interest is being
taken in this new home, for 1t has
been felt for several years that Wy
oming has been sorely in need of
homes to take care OF the ever in
creasing orphans and the Catholic
institution will releave the situation
considerably.
Capital from all over the state is
being given to the cause. the largest
donation SO far being that OF the
late John Koshir of Rock Springs
who willeG 100000 toward the erec-
ton OF the home. Carbon County
has been we'll represented in the gifts
for the late Mrs. Mary Walters Of
Saratoga left all OF her estate OF
about $1,000 to the home. Several
other donations of $1,000 are being
made toward the purchase of the SO
acres of land upon which the home
will be built.
The building will be constructed
of freproof material and will be
modern throughout. A choice acre
age has been secured for the home
where farming may be carried on
with a view OF helping maintain the
institution.
We are informed that this home
has become necessary because OF the
fact that outside institutions, be-
cause OF their crowded conditions,
are unable to properly care for the
many state Catholic orphans who are
seeking homes each year. The added
home will greatly relieve the con-
ditions in the other institutions,
thus 1t will be of immense help to the
whole state.

The Republican platform is dein-

Government has definitely refused

the Covenant of the League. On this
we stand" In his first message to
Congress, President Coolidge said
that Our country has definitely re-
fused to adopt and ratify the coven-

not proposing any change in that
policy; neither is the Senate. The

Doylestown (Pa.) Intelligencer.-

badly defeated candidate. Demo-

Kingston, IN. W Freeman.-The
Republican ticket is the choice of
the party. The conventions duties
were merely ministerial and the dele
gates dare not do otherwise than
they did. They were bossed-by the
people. The other ticket has a good
nan in it by accident and compro-
mise after bitter fighting over spoils,
not principles. Davis was evolved
by a condition in the convention.
Coolidge was evolved by a demand
from the voters.

be said to have suffered the sever

Curley's license was revoked by

The day dawned with miserable

drove away all optimism.
There was only a hope that the
skies would smile before game time.
The greatest crowd that ever saw
football game in the west has ar
ranged to see this contest. Seventy
tive thousand seats in the stadium
have been sold. Twenty thousand
more spectators will be taken care
of on the high hills looking down
into the stadium. Probably. five
thousand more will mount housetops
nearby or, climb trees in the vicin-
ity.
Never has there been such interest

Stanford goes into the contest
with the most impressive record for

has been disqualified, and with Ernie
Nevers, her great He-pltnlging full
back, suffering from an Injured an
kle which will only permit him to
play little, if at all.
The result is that the Cardinals,
despite their record, are short end.

Stanford has really had to defeat
