to the cafe car for luncheon. He said
he noticed that the train stopped on
the bridge but knew nothing about
the accident until the train had
stopped at the depot, about twentv
minutes later. The depot is located
about a half mile from where the
accident occurred.
At this point the Chippewa river is
about 800 feet wide with trussle
work on either side, making bridge
of about 600 feet. After reporting
at the depot, the train backed up to
the scene of the accident where about
three-quarters of an hour was spent,
and the rescue party were beginning
their work.
There is a drop of about 60 feet
at the point where the car was thrown
into the river. DR.. Sweetman states
that the river was closed with ice on
either side but there was quite a
wide open channel in the center of the
stream. He didn't see any of the in
jured ones or the bodies of those
killed, removed from the ill-fated car,
but the rescue parties had arrived and
were getting started to work when
the train pulled out.
Mr.. Sweetman says that he doesn't
care to experience this thrill of life
time again and had the accident been
delayed fifteen minutes longer the
probabilities are that the cafe car
would have been crowded and the loss
of life much heavier.

SCHOOLS WE'LL ORGANIZED AND
SETTLED DOWN TO WORK
OF TERM

Superintendent r. b. Hardin
states that there has been a total
. enrolment at the present time of
342 students in the Cody schools
and prospects are that this figure
will be greatly increased before the
holidays. Many families who are
still out of town will move in and
enroll their children later and many
young people who plan to take high
school work are still busy with out
side tasks which will not be com
pleted for a few weeks.
The enrolment in the high school
was $50, which is a small increase
over that of last year at this time.
In the junior high there are 76
pupils and in the five elementary
grades are enrolled 1876. A pleas
ing feature of the enrolment this
year is that not n of the classes
of the grades has more than 80
students, making these classes Of an
ideal size for the most efficient
work, and equalizing the seating
capacity of the school rooms.
The instructors in the high school
are as follows:
Superintendent. b. Hardin.
Principal and Latin and English
Miss Ruby Mcbride.
History-Miss Irene Henderson.
Mathematics - Miss Josephine
Kollmyer.
Commercial-Miss Ruth Burns.
English-Miss Beulah Schriver.

years.

A statewide drive is on for funds
for the enlargement and improve
ment of the Cathedral home. 10
Gated at Laramie, Wyoming. The
campaign is being carried on by
Bishop N. S. Thomas and W r.

lar for every dollar raised within

for funds in Park county and is
being assisted in the work by Mrs

The Cathedral home at the pres
ent time is caring for about fifty

enlarged and the work which the
institution is doing in the state can
be carried on on a greater and
more efficient plane.

1924 HAY CROP BRING
GROWER GOOD RETURNS

Ten dollars a ton has been the
price paid by Manager Scott Lyall
for hay for the alfalfa mill at Pow
eli and the mill is already in opera
ton for it's fall and winter run. Mr..
Lyall expects to crowd the work
this year and will endeavor to ship
at least 10000 tons of hay this
season, almost double the amount
handled in any previous ear.
The Powell mill is a great factor
in furnishing a ready market and a
fair price to the growers for their
hay crop, and thru its activities
turns many gold dollars back into
the Powell community. The alfalfa
when ground into a meal, is shipped
to the middle west markets for
dairy feed.

DEPOT ROAD TO
BE IMPROV
WORK STARTED THIS WEEK TO
MAKE DECIDED CHANGE In
RIVER HILL ROAD

C. B. Wilson, contractor, started
this week to make improvements on
the river hill which will make a
decided change in the route to the
burlington station and develop Il
road with a grade al least 3 per
cent less han the one now in use
MIR. Wilson has been the sub-con-
tractor on the work of the south
side river o and is a road build
er with a great deal of experience
The plan is to widen the entire
road from the top of the hill to the
river bridge and to make a big I'LL
at the bottom. thus eliminating the
sharp curve at the lower end of the
hill. The fill will start from thu
bridge and bring the road up the
hill on an easy curve and a grade
not over nine per cent.
Two hundred feet of drainage tile
is also a part of the proposed i'm
provement to take care of the seep-
age which proves such an annoy
ing element during the winter
months. Mr.. Wilson's bid was zoe
a cubic yard for moving the dirt
and $500 a foot for laying the
drainage tile. Other bids were re-
ceived which were slightly lower
Mr.. Wilson's, but it was thot
by those in charge that in view OF
the fact that Mr.. Wilson had his.
equipment available at once and
an experienced road man, that
his bid, altho not the lowest. was
the best.
This work is being paid for from
the sale of TINT to the Taggart
Construction company by the Cody
Club, said explosives having beec
secured by the club for proposed
work in the Shoshone canyon.

INK WEEK AT SPRINGS
3 AUTOS TURN OVER

Last week seemed to be a bad
one at DeMaris springs when three
cars which were visiting this pop
ular resort met with accidents on
the hill leading down to the hotel.
None of the accidents had any SER
ious results and little damage was
done the cars.
Curt Howell, driving a Star,
backed over the bank when his car
slipped out of low gear and the
brakes failed to hold the car. A
visiting car from Lowell, loaded
with two families, met with an ac-
cident when the brakes failed to
hold and the driver had to run into
the bank to check the speed of the
car Another car of tourist had a
like accident.
1t is a noticeable fact that each
and every one of these accidents
were due either to carelessness on
the part of the driver or neglect
to have the cars in workable con
dition. The road leading to the
Ssrrings, although a steep grade, ia
a good one and there is no occa-
sion for an accident there with
careful driving and efficient cars.
One of Roy Holm's trucks turned
owe on the road to the depot when
the universal joint came apart and
the drive shaft dropped down.
