APPROACHING

Advertisements are beginning to appear with decorations of
holly and mlstletoe and smiling faces of Santa Claus. To the
abservart these ad frescoes tell their own story, give their
own warning, hint at the important business from which none
is barred and in which sooner or later everybody will be engaged.
In other words, Christmas shopping. The holiday is little
more than a month ahead, fewer shopping days than fifty by
procrastinator will wait until Christmas Eve when the store
aisles Will be damned by other procrastinators, stocks picked up.
clerks weary, customers in a flutter, clocks ticking times rapid
pace, all because the reminders of today have been neglected.
Every year more sensible persons do their Christmas shop
ping early. They reap all the advantages in variety of selection
and leisure OF choice and when Christmas Eve comes they can
proceed about their last minute holiday tasks orderly. while
the others fume and sputter.
Americans are a great people never to do today what can
be done tomorrow. The postmaster has urged early posting of
Christmas mail, but the last days will probably be bigger than
ever. The train leaves at Sis but the cars do not fill until
5:14. We get there even if we are a last-minute nation, but it
L at a tremendous cost of physical energy and mental upsets.
Inc Christmas shopping season in merely one phase of a
national temperament.

THE BEE.

John Burroughs, the naturalist, describes the honey bee
as having the white mans craftiness, his industry, his archi-
tectural skill, his neatness and love of system, his foresight;
and, above all, his eager, misery habits. The honey-bee's great
ambition is to be rich, to lay up great stores, to possess the
sweet of every flower that blossoms. She is more than provi-
dent; Enough will not satisfy her; she must have all she can
get by hook or crook"
When the white man came to America the Indians learned
that he offered stiff competition in retaining the land
and IN tlEng the corn. 1t meant that life became a little more
work and a great deal less leisure for the dusky warriors and
they naturally resented it. This old competition between the
Palefaces and Redskins has been supplanted by an even more
spirited competition among the white men. There are some men
and women who are content with a bare existence and there
are others who have the hony-bees great ambition to be rich,
to lay mp great stores" The energetic and thrifty mar makes
1t harder for the indoent to exc out their bare existence and
so the latter hate the ambitious ones as fiercely as did the
Indian hate the white man.

AT CODY ARNIISTICE DAY
powell Tribune)

Next Wednesday, the 18th, is
Armistice Day. There is no thought
of any celebration of the day at
Powell. but the American Legion
boys and the public are invited to
ly observed with a program, dance
and outdoor sports.
The custom of Jointly celebrat-
ing Armistice Day alternately at
Cody and Powell has proven so &C
ceptable to the public that it is
likely that the arrangement will be
permanent. 1t is a ~neighborly way
of doing. Last year the Cody bust
ness houses closed for the day and
their people came to Powell by the
hundreds to partake of the hospi-
tally of the project town. Next
Wednesday we will have opportu-
nifty of returning the visit
A football game between the
Powell and Cody high school is
each year an Armistice Day feature
wherever the celebration be held.
The rivalry. though keen, is always
good-natured.

tween Cody and Powell, but there
is no Jealousy. The trading terri
tory of the two towns does no.
where interlap, and the growth and
prosperity of the n does not re-
tard the progress of the other. One
locality is peopled by a farming
class from the east and the other
prides itself in the maintaining
of the traditions and spirit of the
old west; one community c%ultivates
the dude crop and the other the
spud crop, but otherwise the citi-
zenry of both are alike in friendly,
honest, whole-souled all American
qualities, and the Powell people
are beginning to feel just as much
at home in Cody environment as
under their own vine and fig tree.
May the friendly feelings and I'm
derstanding forever continue.

ARMISTICE DAY

Seven years ago the whole country rejoiced over the glad
tIdIngs that firing had ceased" on the long battle line of
Europe. That the war was over; that a truce had been made
between the Allied powers and Germany. Almost the whole
world celebrated the event, and gave thanks for the termina-
Ilon OF a war which had been of the most vicious character ever
known TO civilized peoples.
Today we again gather to celebrate Armistce Day. We
gather to observe November 18th, that day which ended so much
suffering, SO much misery and such colossal loss of life as
was being experienced on the firing line in Europe. 1t is hoped
that the truce which was signed on Armistice Day, November
18th, 1918, will never again be broken. That the terrors of war
Will never again oe known in the civilized world. w reverently
bow our heads in returning thanks for the many blessings which
Arrnistce day has brought to the world. and pray that the
truce will be of a lasting nature.

P-ARENT-TEACHERS' CLUB

If there is any one thing which will fit into the order of
things in the Cody community, and work a great deal of good,
IL IS the organization OF a Parent-Teacher' association, to bring
the teachers OF the Cody schools and the patrons of the school
into a closer relationship.
Cody has probably as good schools as may be found any
where in the west. They are well administrated, and are max
ing great strides in educational work. But there is absolutely no
contact between the school, the teacher, and the parents of the
nunoreds IL children who attend There are many advantages in
a good, active parent-teachers organization, and Cody should
have one.

FOR YOUTH

All children and few adults welcome winter with its snow
and frosty air. The few men and women who really enjoy win
ter have not cultivated that affinity. They have preserved it
from youth. The many in dreading the drifts and drafts of
winter ere just admitting that they are growing old.
Boys and girls of all generations have looked forward with
keen anticipation to the first snowfall of the season. Without
giving ? thought to resultant cold feet and fingers, frost-bitten
ears and wet clothing the children vision the approaching coast
ing, wading in drifts, snowman building and SNOWFALL battles.

Lo, The Bum Proofreader.

Speaking of bad p~roofreading,
ever hear about Smiths bad break?
asked the old time editor.
"It was like this: Smith was ex-
ceptionally tall and thin. She was
also an earnest church worker.
When she died Smith ordered a
fine monument, directing that the
words Lord She Was Thine" to
be inscribed upon it. The engraver
failed to calculate the space and
the inscription read: Lord She
Was Thin"
, 1925-11-11

They hear only the call of the exhilarating snow and cold.
Grownups are more prone to think of winter in terms of
slippery pavements, drifted streets, chils and colds. Where once
they would have deserted the warm fireside for the blustery
outdoors they now cling jealousy to the indoors dreading the
discomforts in the cross word puzzle of adult age. In that
of the age of youth winter is a synonym for real sport.
People are never old as long as they are undaunted by the
rigors of winter.
