On last Thursday afternoon Mrs.
r. A. Daley entertained the members
of the Five Hundred Club. A very
enjoyable diversion from the routine
card playing was afforded late in the
afternoon in the form Of a few mus
ical numbers by Mr.. Beattle. Mr..
Beattle is a native Of Scotland n a
most skillful performer on the &C
cordian. The native Scotch airs were
particularly enjoyed.

And we are relieved to cite evidence
that Rawlins is abreast Of the times
in this respect. On Monday evening
a small crowd of the Rawlins young

Of displaying ones various graceful

the Misses Marguerite Rasmussen,
Mae Ryan, Elizabeth Mahoney, and
the Messrs. Tom Ready and Fred

The Amateur Wrestling Tourna-

Ten Years Ago

The first measure passed by the
Legislature was one appropriating
$61,500 for the expenses of the SEES
sion. Many bills have already been
introduced both in the Senate and in
the House and from all indications
this session Of the legislature will
be of a business nature throughout.
Among the measures introduced in
both branches is one providing for a
Public Utilities Commission. This
measure was referred in the House
to a special committee comprising
Representatives Carter, Hadsell, Lu-
cas-, Hinckley and Graverson. Next
week will be a busy in Cheyenne
and the Legislature will undoubted-
ly transact an immense amount of
work. If we may Judge from present
indications the 18th Legislature will
make ar exceptional record in the
beneficial character OF the laws pass
ed and in general good feeling be-
tween the various branches of the
state government.
Last Friday night the Rawlins

contest and the Saratoga boys return
ed home we'll satisfied with the treat

team. The Rawlins team expects to
go OF Saratoga for the return game

END FILM PADS,
 SAYS BARKER

Reginald Barker, the film director, does not believe in picture vogues. In other words when a cinema drama is hit, he decries the mad rush on the part of some producers and directors to produce one like it.
 Rather, they should say: Lets try to make one a little better. and lit tie different " declares MT. Barker, whose latest production under Metro Louis B. Mayer auspices, Broken Barriers" will open at the Liberty to- night. This is the screen version of Meredith Nicholson's famous novel, adapted for the screen by Sada Cowan and Howard Higgin., @. Barker also is of the opinion that some producers make mistake when then endeavor to tone down their pie lures to what they believe is the level of public taste. @ "Just as some writers think they l have to pander to fancied triteness in the public taste, so some producers

insist that successful pictures must accord with this idea," says MT. Bar ker. Both forget, however, that ed ucation, as it becomes more wide spread and general in each succeed ing generation, is elevating the artis- tic taste of the public-that most of the people are constantly reaching for greater culture rather than con senting to it's depression.
 Tn recent years I admit that there has been an apparent thirst for the sensational in both writing and plays The excitement of the World War stimulated this desire for the lurid in life, but as the influences of that con- flict gradually are dimmed, I believe the public is returning to a, saner and normal view of what it is the best to seek.
 @The public is getting over it's recre- ational spree and turning to more ar tistic expressions. And, as the post war orgy of excitement passes, one will find that only the better type of motion pictures will achieve public favor"

HIGH GRADE FOX
 PELTS ARE FEW
 SAYS REPORT
Heavy Demand for Silver Fox Furs- High Prices Act as a Boom to
 Industry

NEW YORK, Oct. 27. (P)-Prices and offerings at the recent fur auction sales here show plainly that the in, | dustry must turn to fur farming if it is to supply the fashion demand at anything like reasonable prices. Eleven million muskrat belts were used by furriers in the last year of which over six million came from Lou isiana alone But the demand for southern rats still is insistent with prices ranging from $1S5 to S2.0O a skin.
 Interest also has been acute in op- posum, ermine, fitch, badger and fox. The old system of trapping which was the foundation of the Astor and other fortunes no longer is yielding the for mer results The silver fox produc- CTS have already beaten the other fur men to scientific raising and market ing of furbearing animals and it is noticed that the silver fox offerings at the present sales have been few and of inferior grades. This was due to the fact that animals are proving more valuable as breeders than when their belts are sold.
 Sales of silver fox in London show ed top price of about S400 a pelt. The Lampson sales there showed few offerings which brought over $2O0 a pelt. In recent sales in this country pelts brought $21O to $500. Many sold for as low as S15 to s2O This did not indicate lowering of prices for the best furs since silver fox scarfs still are quoted at around $45O and up at retail. It simply indicates that the best animals are not being killed for their skins but are being kept for breeding purposes. What skins now are coming into the market of prime quality are from those animals which die naturally. It is the standing prayer of the fox breeder that if fox has to die, it do so ill November of December when the fur attains it best condition.

i. CALLED T|PSTERS
Furuseth Tells Coolidge Sea-
mans Act Is Not
Enforced.

The White House has received a
letter from Andrew Furuseth, presi-
dent of the International Seamens s
Union of America, in which he de-
clared that American seamen have
no federation for the idea that they
be made tipsters" His letter was in
opposition to the proposal of Chair
man O'Connor of the Shipping Board
seaman out of the Treasury of the
United States.
Wages paid American seamen are
now actually not more than per cent
above the foreign scales, Mr.. Euruseth
said. and he contended this dfferen-
tial would not exist if the seamen's
act had been enforced" Although
American fiagships do operate under
n serious adverse cost differential as
compared with foreign ships, he said,
this was largely due to inefficiency
and the expense Of repairs not made
by the ships own crew.
The provision of Mr.. OConnor'
plan for bringing American Seamen
into the Naval Reserve. Mr.. Furuseth
asserted, would mean destruction of
the American merchant marine. They
should. however, be made capable of
efficient service in case of war, he
added, and to this end he proposed a
plan previously suggested by him for
voluntary enlistment for one year in
the Navy. with a certificate of honor
able discharge from such service en-
titlinE the holders to preference in
employment thereafter on American
merchant vessels.
