$3.50 on Deafness.
From the Los Angeles Times.

A New England farmer sat on his
porch steps one sunny fall morning
doing exercises with his fingers in the
hope of driving the rheumatism out
of his finger joints. A city chap hap
pened to be passing at the time and
said to himself:
This poor old farmer is deaf and
dumb"
So, as he was thirsty, he took out
some paper and a pencil and wrote:
will you sell me a quart of fresh,
cool milk" and handed the note over
the fence
The farmer stopped his finger cx-
ercises, read the note, got up with
out A word, and went into the house.
He was back in a minute with full
pitcher.
The city chap drank the milk and
wrote How much?' on another slip
of paper.
For answer the farmer held up five
fingers three times. The city chap
paid him, nodded and started off. But

where probably in olden times the
unwelcome Roman legions once feast
ed, has been found among a group of
newly discovered Roman remains at
Folkstone, on the English Channel,
where the first Romans are said to
have landed. The remains consist of
two buildings, in each of which are
about seven hearths, which leads to
the belief that they were used as the
cook houses and dining halls of early
Roman camps.
The base of watch tower also has
been found, built in a wall which evil

burial urnS and Roman glass have

BUSINESS MEN
PROTEST AGAINST
TRAMP PEDDLER

A movement has been started in
Rawlins by a few of the city's in
fiuential business men which is aim
ed against the free exploitation of
this city by itinerant statesmen who
pay no licenses. no taxes, and give
no real security in the fulfilling of
their contracts with purchasers.
Mr.. Carl Aman. treasurer OF the
Carbon County Credit Rating Elk
change, recently wrote to the Port
land, Oregon, chamber OF commerce
relative to an ordinance passed by
the Legislative officers of that city
last summer guarding against exect-
ly the same problem now confront
ing Rawlins. This city has a strin-
gent ordinance imposing a license
upon any road merchant and further
compelling him to put up a stin
bond against which legal action may
be had in default by him of condi-
tons of contract made his pur-
chasers. In reply to Mr.. Aman's
letter Mr.. Edw. N. Weinbaum, man
ager of the trade and commerce de-
partment Of Portland's chamber of
commerce. declares that the ordin-
ance has been upheld by the United
States District Court Of Appeals. 1t
In no way interferes with the legit-
innate business done by accredited
statesmen of established business
houses at other points.
1t is the plan Of those back of the
local move to have the city council
pass. with notifications applicable
to this city's own problem. an or
dinance similar to those already in
effert in other towns and cities.
The position OF the merchants is
one deserving of support. Rawlins
merchants have always been subject
to the competition of mail order
houses. and while they do not con-
cur with the justice of this type of
buying on the part of the public,
yet they have taken no steps against
it other than through public infor-
nation of its evil. But they do OBJ

CITIZENS ARE
ABUSING FAVOR
OF FIRE DEPT.

Mayor Perrett today declared that
many citizens in their eagerness to
get in on the excitement of a fire
are running their automobiles in
front of the fire truck, and hinder
ing the work of the fire department
in other ways. The moment the fire
alarm sounds the fire truck has alb
solute right of way and all other
street traffic In the vicinity should
come to a stop.
THE fire truck weights around
five tons, and l can't for the life
OF me see why a driver OF a light
automobile wants to risk getting in
its way" declared Mr.. Perrett. THE
fire boys are giving their time and
often risking their health at fires
that Rawlins property may be safe.
And II property wne add another
risk to that act they are surely do
ing SO without thinking.
Another thing citizens must
watch this summer is the turning
off OF all s%prinkling during the
course of a fire. We have more
than enough water for our needs:
but scores of sprinklers going all at
the same time reduce the pressure
at the point of fire and retard the
work OF the hose men.
Many drivers OF automobiles are
getting careless about parking In
front of fire hydrants on Lincoln
Highway. This must stop. We had
trouble once about people driving
across fire hose but a few arrests
settled that"

secretary OF the Wyoming Wool
Growers Association, will be inter-
esting to the local wbol growing
interests:
Believing that unless the Wyo-
ming pure wool" or truth in
fabric" law Is declared u%nconstitu-
tional, 1t will be followed by similar
legislation in other wool producing
States, the executive committee of
the Associated Clothing Manufac-
lures of New York yesterday in
structed Irving Crane, secretary of
the organization to represent the
New York manufacturing market as
counsel in a test OF the Wyoming
statute. Announcement of the COM
mittee's decision was made by Isa-
dore Grossman, president of the
association.
The association will ask the help
Of other markets in fighting the law
from the manufacturer standpoint.
Mr.. Grossman said. The National
Association of Retail Cothiers Is
fighting a Test case brought against
Wyoming retailers, but the New
York association thinks that the
manufacturers should be equally
concerned. The law, IL found con-
.sttutional, would affect manufac-
turers quite as much Is retailers, 1t
Is pointed out.
Mr.. Crane will go to Wyoming
probably before the case comes to
trial in August, and will file an ap-
pearance on behalf Of the manufac-
turers.
Mr.. Crane has also been asked by
the executive committee to plan an
educational campaign through which
the Wyoming consumers will be told
that compliance with the law will
mean a substantial increase in the
price Of clothing, because of the ex-
ira expense which the labelling pro-

Such a campaign. 1t is felt, will

Mr.. Hadsell says: THE Wyoming

those who sell garments or fabrics
made of wool must label the same
as to their content of virgin wool"
The opposition to this legislation
comes from the powerful nationally
organized clothing interests and not
from Wyoming clothiers 1t will be
most interesting to watch Mr.. Crane
