does not gather the youngsters of
the congregation on Sunday and
teach them the principles of their

it is hard to. believe that the in.

some great churchman.
The truth is that the Sunday
school was not the idea Of a
clergyman at all, but the inspira-
ton of an English printer.
Robert Raikes, of Gloucester
England, invented the Sunday
school. He was a young man
with a fair education and deep
religious feeling. He lived in an
age when the lower classes re.

NEW ROAD IS
SURVEYED TO
SNAKE RIVER

A recent issue of "Wyoming
Roads the official publication of the
Wyoming Highway Commission, car
ried the following article regarding
road work being done or contempla-
ed in Carbon county:
Rawlins-Lander and Rawlins-Cas-
per Road from Belle Springs to Mud
dy Gap, constructed by Shamrock &
Pursell, has been completed with the
exception Of timber bridges which
are now being constructed by j. F.
Turpen. The piling has already been
driven for four ofsthe six bridges
to be built and work is progressing
SLOWLY, due to the extreme dryness
of the ground. In order to secure
the required penetration of piles for
these bridges, it was necessary to
blast some of the holes, which has
caused considerable delay. Neverthe-
less. more favorable conditions have
since been encountered and this work
will soon be completed.
The Rawlins-Lander Road, be-
tween Muddy Gap and Fremont
county line, being constructed by
Shamrock & Purcell. is rapidly near
ing completion. The Rawlins-Casper
Road from Muddy Gap to Natrona
county line, being constructed by
State forces, will be completed in
about three weeks.
Crawling of the Walcott-Saratoga
Road from Lake Creek and Six Mile
Hill is well under way and should
be completed in the near future.
Suryeys.-Mr. j. e. Schreibner, To-
eating engineer, has just completed
a reconnaissance for a route between
Rawlins and Bags, this proposed
road to intersect the Lincoln High
way at a point about IA miles west
of Rawlins, thence south to Bags.
This route will follow Separation
creek to the Continental divide,
thence over a low pass and down a
branch of Muddy Creek, intersecting
Muddy Creek at about five miles
north of Dad; thence down Muddy
creek to junction of Snake River to
a point about two miles above Baggs.
Nothing in excess of a SO grade
will be encountered on this route and
a very light curvature v the Con-
tinental Divide. Quantities of excel
lent surfacing material have been
discovered, the absence Of which has
been one of the drawbacks on the
Wamsutter-Baggs Road and Rawlins
Bags via Sulphur Springs.

u. S. Railroads Avert
Car Shortage First
Time in History

NEW YORK, NOV. 24.-The 1913
class n railroads of the country got
thru the peak traffic movements this
year without a car shortage for the
first time in their history, 1t was re-
vealed today when the car service
division of the American Railway as
ISOLATION represented tbs 1924 report
to the board of directors. The report
also showed that seven new trans
portatton cords had been set thru
out the industry generally during this
period.
That 1924 was the first year in
which the carriers averted the usual
autumn bugaboo of a dearth of
freight cars was attributed to a new
system in the handling of "empties."
In the past. it vas pointed cut, 1t
had been customary to mobilize great
fleets of rolling stock which were
concentrated ~regionally for the move
ment of crops or coal. This year the
car supply problem was analysed in
advance so that it was dealt with in
fractions of itself, the report showed.
The report showed among the new
high marks in car movement and eff
ficiency set in 1924.
Greatest number of cars loaded
