Barber Shops Should Establish A
Bobbed Hair Day, Says June Binney

M. Gerrans Due in
Cody Saturday With
Distinguished Party

A distinguished party consisting of
Mr.. and Mrs. S. Rowland, of New
York City, and H. M. G%errans, of
Buffalo, N. Y, will arrive in Cody
Saturday. Mr.. Rowland is a mem
Der of the law firm of Root, Clark,
Buckner and Rowland of the former
place. Mrs. Rowland is the daugh-
ter of Mr.. Gerrans who is well known
to the old timers in this section as
he made frequent visits to Wyoming
when he was a stock holder in the
Cody Trading Company. Mr.. Ger
rams arrival at that time was in the
nature of a holiday and business was
practically suspended as long as he
was in town.
They will be met by j. NJ. Schwoob
and taken to the Island Park and
Cattle Co. ranch which is owned by
Mrs. E. H. Hartman. of New York
City. The ranch contains $4,000 ac-
res and pastures 122 head of elk, and
many deer with fine fishing in the
numerous lakes.
Mr.. Schwoob will return in a cou-
pie of days but the party will remain
some three or four weeks.

NO MOOSE PERMITS
IN WYOMING 1924

No moose will be legally killed in
Wyoming during 1924. The State
Game and Fish commission an
nounced Wednesday that no permits
for killing moose would be issued
this year. Under normal conditions
there is a season on Elk from Sept
ember 18th to October 31st, and dur
ing that period hunters who have Sc
cured special permits, may kill moose,
but the Game and Fish commission
has decided that no application for
permits shall be granted this year.
An open season on grouse, the
first seven years, has been decreed by
the Game and Fish commission from
October 18th to November, with a
bag limit of four birds per hunter.
The open season was set so late in the
year on the theory that by that time
grouse will have retreated to high
mountain fasteness virtually ~inaccess-
ible to hunters, and that, therefore,
the number killed will be small.

While Mr.. June Binney is young,
he is old enough to have whiskers
which have to be removed occasion
ally, and he declares that bobbed hair
is becoming a public menace, as mu-
tiny and rebellion against the usurp-
alton of the barber chair by women
is growing rapidly among the male
inhabitants of the country.
Mr.. Binney who is connected with
the government scientific research
party which has been studying Tor
nations in Elk Basin this summer
but who now resides in Cody, asserts
with warmth that the barber shop is
one place which should remain in
violate against the intrusion Of petit
coats and ladies in trousers. He is
willing to concede them the pool
halls and soft drink pArlors, but feels
il the last straw when they hop into
the barber chairs and keep the sex
that have been patrons from time i'm
memorial waiting while they have
their locks bodied or Numbered.

NO APOLOGIES TO MAKE FOR ACT
INSPIRED BY HUMAN MOTIVES,
SAYS SHERIFF OF PARK COUNTY
w. HI. LOOMS in Interview Gives Reasons for
Taking Prisoner on Business Trip Into
/. Crandall Creek Country .ar

, Carey Is my pet prisoner" I have
no pet prisoners. AS a matter of fact
he has asked and received fewer pr.
vileges than any of those in my GUS
tody. He has been a model prisoner
since he was confined in the county
Jail on the 27th Of last February.
Carey is of a high strung, nervous
temperament and has always led an
active outdoor life. He has failed
in health very noticably of late, and
that fact has been called to my at
tention by many others. While he
is a prisoner charged with violation
of the liquor law, he is still a human
being and not a vicious animal to be
allowed to die by inches in a cell that
sees little sunlight and is dark and
overcrowded.
"He rendered invaluable assistance
on this trip which was very difficult
and dangerous owing to the snowfall
and consequent condition of the
roads. In fact, I could not have made
the trip alone at all. And / had no
fear that he would escape or attempt
to, for he has shown himself to be
a mar who keeps his word when once
he gives it.
q" accomplished everything for
which | went into the country, check
ing over some 100 dry and green
hides, and investigating violations of
the range laws-as a result of which
a warrant has been issued for the ar
rest of IN offender. When my work
was done l was urged to go up on
the head of Crandall creek for a short
hunt, and was supplied with a gun
for that purpose.
"These are the true facts in the
case of which the Herald with its
usual sneering attitude toward people
with whom it differs, is attempting to
make political capital" concluded
Mr.. LOOMS. "And l repeat that l
have no apologies to make for an act
which was inspired by a purely hu-
name motive"

Screen in Big Famous Players Production

fashionable teas at smart London
houses, and when the function bored
them they took their cups and sat
down on the floor in the corner with
their backs to the company or else
stalked out without the formality of
making adieux to their hostess. When
the fogs got bad they were quartered
in a four-story house near the thea
ire and finding the heat from the
small English CRATES inadequate, they
pulled them out into the middle of
the floor and built up a good fire
with the rungs of the banisters. The
bill for damages when they vacated
the house was no in~considerable sum.
Upon his return to America Mayor
Mccoy was sent out by the film COM
pany to obtain evidence to introduce
in the suit for 100000 damages
brought against the Famous Players
by a daughter of Jim Bridger who
contended that her illustrious parent
was maligned in "The Covered Wag-
on" He discovered many interest
ing old scouts and miners who recall
led wildly occasions upon which the
famous trail-maker had been distinct
ly drunk and had had not two Indian
wives at one time, as shown in the
story, but several. When the evil
dence was presented to his descend
emit proving conclusively that Uncle
James Bridger was not the venerable
saint he had been painted, the suit
was promptly dropped.
Major Mccoy is keenly interested
in the work of picture making and
his friends have long phophesied that
he will go a long way once he gets
his stride.

out utte1ng a word, claiming that he
never even talked 10 himself when
alone. =
It is rumored he was to have been
married to a local woman, being SO
sure of the fact that he was banking
his prospective brides money in his
own name. This has also turned up
missing at the time of his departure.
Since it has become known that he
can talk and hear there are several
instances that now appear surprising
and amusing. A short time ago
Brownwell was in an auto accident
on the road to DeMaris Springs when
the car rolled down the bank. While
the other occupants screamed or ut
tered sounds of some kind, he was
perfectly quiet, always remembering
he was supposed to be a dummy"
On another occasion the ice man
dropped a good sized chunk of ice
behind Brownwell without getting a
rise from him. During the Stampede
some of the boys shot large fire
crackers at his feet to make him
jump, but were disappointed to see
him pay no attention to them. He
could be trusted with a secret and it
is said that some of the remarks
which he was not supposed to hear,
made before him by both men and
women would not bear printing.
So far there is only one instance
recorded where he made a slip. While
he was playing the piano at the home
of Kid Wilson the telephone rang.
He Immediately stopped playing and
waited until the party who answered
the call was through talking until he
again.

Major Tim Mccoy breezed into
Cody this week as full of energy and
life as ever. Major Mccoy who owns
a fine ranch on Owl creek and was
formerly adjutant general of the
State, is now connected with the Fa-
nous Players-Lasky Company with
headquarters in Hollywood.
The company is getting ready to
film a Zane Grey story entitled
"The laundering Herd" which ne
cessitates the use of a large herd of
buffalo. Major Mccoy was delegated
to see the Yellowstone Park officials
and arrange with them to film the
government herd which is the larg-
est in the country. He left on We'd
nesday morning for Mammoth Hot
Springs to see superintendent Hor-
ace Albright.
He will return to Cody in about
two weeks with a band of Arapahoe
Indians that will be used in the pic
ture, and go on in to the Park.
Major Mccoy will make his first
appearance on the screen in 1.-THE
laundering Herd" playing a sympa-
thetic part in the story which has to
do with the days of the buffalo hide
hunters.
He was abroad for a year with
"The Covered Wagon" reciting the
prologue for that stupendous and sue
cessful picture. He has many anus
ing stories to tell of his adventures
with the band of Arapahoes that he
and Mayor Ed Farlow, of Lander,
took over, only three of whom could

While the gulf between Cody's rail-
road station and "Main Street" has
not been closed, the distance has been
materially shortened.

Many of the efficient Inn force re-
turn to duties quite different in char
acter, maids to be heads of their own
homes, ticket agents to school super

the latter is true of the competent
colored force, among whom are medi-
cos and math. instructors.
Among the Sunday evening callers
at the dismantled hosiery were Mr..
and Mrs. c. J. Lowe, MI. S. c. Parks,

TRANSFER RULE
FOR WORKERS
CHANGED
U. S. Employees May Be Given
New Jobs After Six
Months Service

One Of the important factors in
the temporary reclassification of
Federal employees which goes into
effect next month-that permitting
a worker to be transferred from one
department to another without three
years service-has been put into
effect by executive order of Presi-
dent Coolidge.
Under the new status, Govern
ment employee does not have to
work in a Federal department for
more than six months before being
eligible to promotion or transfer
to another department. The. new
ruling gives administrative froce to
the Redistribution act of 1928,
employees may be transferred from
a position In one grade to a vacant
position in the same grade, or pro-
NOTED to a vacant position in a
higher grade at a higher rate of
compensation, in accordance with
civil service rules"
The order will mean a marked
liberalization Of civil service condi.
tons, 1t is held. Ambitious workers
will be stimulated to greater efforts
because the prospect of early ad-
Vancement will be held before them.
