SERVICE MEN RECEIVING
INSURANCE POLICIES
2O-Year Endowment Policies Issued
First of Year To Cody
Soldier Boys

Several of the endowment insur-
ance policies issued by the govern
ment under the Bonus bill are be-
ing received in Cody. and more of
them will probably be along as soon
as the new department can get them
out. The policies will be for sums
ranging from $50 up to $500 or
more, depending upon the length
of service which the service man
has to his credit.
Two of the policies which have
been received are for amounts in
excess of $1,500, and represent al
most a maximum service for volun-
teers. The amount of the policy is
for each day in the service in this
country, and s1.25 for each day of
foreign service, providing that not
more than 500 days of home SER
vice be to the credit of any one
man.. nor more than 500 days of
foreign service. This amount, less
many deductions which are made
by the government on account of
payments made at the time of de-
mobilization, such as the $50 which
was received by many of the SOL
der boys and other credits of a
financial nature which were given
them during their service.
The policy is non-transferable.
1t continues as the property of the
n to whom it is given and has a
small loan value which can be
taken advantage of should circum-
stances force its owner to use it.
All loans made upon the policy,
which must be at a rate of interest
set by the government, must be
paid by, or can be collected togeth-
err with the interest at the maturity
of the policy.
The bonus policy is in reality
a protection for the dependents of
the insured soldier, and a pension
to him at the end of a tw~enty-year
period should he live to realize upon
it. 1t marks a new departure in
compensating soldiers of the United
States for army and war service.

Another proposition which is
meeting with much favor by many
OF h business men of Cody is
the obtaining of a lease from the
Buffalo Bill Memorial association
lie directly west of the present city
park and the property of the high
school.
Mr.. Tyler. who with several other
local business men, form the direc-
torate of the Buffalo Bill Memorial
association, states that he is Ger
tain that arrangements can be
made for the use of this property
and that a lease may be obtained
for a long period, without the
slightest compensation other than
the improvement of the property
by planting trees and shrubbery.
He explained that when the state of
Wyoming appropriated $4,000 for
the erection of a monument to Col
w. F. Cody (Buffalo BID, at Cody,
this money was given to Mrs. Ger
Whitney as a nucleus to the

turn paid the money back to the
Bill Memorial association
to defray expenses which might be-
necessitated here. The mone was
iater used in the purchasing of this
property, and it is owned outright
by the local association.
A meeting of the Memorial as
ISOLATION will be held this evening
and definite plans worked SO
a proposition in writing will be
made the Cody club on Monday as
to what may be expected should it
desire to use this property for 4
.campground site.
The city council, meeting Monday
evening, went on record as being
in favor of granting the use of the
portion of the city park for a
term of years, subject, however, to-
the action of the Cody club in de-
to use the Memorial grounds
A great deal depends upon the.
proper selection of a camp ground

to all. and the financial side
of the matter makes it fmpel alive

MARTIN PLACED ON
CHAMP BASIN TEAM

The coaches of the Big Horn
Basin football teams have arrived
at a decision as to who the honors
60 to during the past foot
ball season and have named the
mythical all-Basin team for the
year 1924. Martin of Cody was
the only man who was placed ON
the first team, while Fritzler. Nc
Gee and Larson won places on the
second team.
The system used in voting WIS
such that the fina1 lineup of the all
Basin team does not give some OF
the individual players the props
amount of credit which might be-
their due. In the voting both Lar
son n MCGEE received two votes
on both the first Inc second teams
This was an honor which was ae-
corded no other players in the
Basin. Although Larson was listed
as a strong man he was opposed
to position of right half by Thomp-
son of Thermopolis, and had tn
give way to one of the best play
ers in the entire state.
Osborne also drew votes for tire
same position as won by Martin IN

FIREMEN'S MASQUERADE
HELD NEW YEARS EVE

The twenty-third annual dance of
the Cody Volunteer Fire department
held on New Years eve at the
Temple theatre and was attended
by a huge srowd which packed the
spacious Temple floor. The dance
was a masquerade affair and brot
forth some very clever and beauti-
full costumes among the dancers. =.
The prizes were awarded as fol-
lows: The most characteristic cos
tune was worn by. Mrs. Bertha Sir
rine, she ~portraying a Chinese girl
while Conan Davies as a sheik drew
the mems prize for characteristic
costume. Blanche Gokel Muir
pleased all with her comic makeup
and Guy Todd took the comic prize,
Both of these costumes were en-
tirely original and Guy took the
part of clown to perfection. Many
other costumes seemed well worthy
of note. especially one worn by Miss
Geneva Loftsgarden, and Buster
Arnold with a Valentino makeup.

TOO MUCH MONEY KEEPS
COUNTY TREASURER OUT
Heavy Payment OF Faxes Piles up
Surplus Cash in Excess of Surety
Bonds Provided for Funds

e. S. Hopes, county treasurer
elect, had more troubles than the
proverbial cranberry merchant"
this week, when he intended to take
office as county treasurer. With
the failure of banks all over the
United States, and more especially
in this western country, the bonding
companies are demanding that every
penny of the county's funds be
covered in the county repositories
by surety bonds, and the fact that
the county treasurer has in his pos
session at the present time funds
in excess of the amount protected
by the surety bonds, they refuse to
grant the new treasurer bonds until
these requirements are complied
with. Mr.. Hopes bonds are. all
ready and he is ready to take of
flee, but this he cannot do until
the county funds have been reduced
several thousand dollars.
G.. A.. Holm, the present county
treasurer, states that the condition
has arisen by the unprecedented
payment of taxes at the end of the
old year: Money has been coming
III So IdSI, CfdC calls could not be
made for outstanding warrants fast
enough to keep it checked out, and
that also a great amount of money
on hand belongs to the municipal
tiles of the county and to schooI
districts. The books are being bal
anced as speedily as possible, and
when the correct appointments
for the school districts are arrived
at, these amounts will be RENTED
from the county funds, and the
county's finances will be reduced
to the limit required by the bond
ing companies.
The attitude of the bonding COM
panies is a new one, and has been
brought on by numerous bank fail
ures. They feel thai they cannot
afford to take the risk which would
be theirs if funds were deposited
In the banks in excess to the
amounts covered by the surety
bonds.
Mr.. Holm states that with the
apportioning of funds which can be
made in a few days, the objections
raised by the bonding companies
will be eliminated and the new
treasurer a be sworn into office.

A rev after noon, accom-
panied by Bishop Thomas, Acting
Governor Lucas and Judge Potter,
she entered the senate chamber,
where all formalities soon were con
summated.
There was no festive air surround
ing the occasion and the governors
lip trembled as Acting Governor
Lucas paid tribute to the memory
of her husband.
Governor Ross was inaugaurated
with a brief and simple ceremon.'
in which she dedicated her best eff

and guidance"
In an atmosphere that was hushed
and reverent out of respect to the
newly elected governors late hus-
band, William Ross, Chief Justice
Potter of the Wyoming supreme
court administered the oath of of
fee. The ceremony opened with
an invocation by Bishop Thomas of
the Protestant Episcopal diocese OF
Wyoming. An audience that taxed
the capacity of the senate chamber
was strangely silent and undemon-
strative as Mrs. Ross spoke. There
was an occasional furtive tear and
checked sobs from those who re-
called the tragic circumstances that
resulted in Mrs. Ross elevation to
the office. Mrs. Ross address was
preceded by a short speech by Act
ing Governor Lucas.
Usual Inaugural
The first woman governors state

officers and with the legislature that

In passing sentence on Peery, the
judge called his attention to the
fact that he was charged with a
crime that in the eyes of the law
ranked with hat of murder. That
as a result of it, the life of a young
girl had been ruined and her health
impaired for many years. He said
h a the court saw no circumstances
attached to the crime which would
Justify leniency, and passed SEN
tence.
On being asked if he had any
hing to say for himself before SEN
nee was passed, Peery said that
was truly sorry that he was
Hilty of such a crime. That he
d always been an Industrious and
iaceful citizen, and had always
led to be a good citizen. He said
Nc wanted to take his medicine,
his time, and would endeavor
conduct himself hereafter as a

en- though he was guilty of the
me charged. He made no ex-
SEES for his conduct, placed no
lame on anyone but himself, ex-
ressing the determination to live a
life of full atonement in future
ears.
Sheriff LOOMS told of the case
as he knew it, and at the request
OF County Attorney McElvain, Ern-
est j. Goppert told how the case
was handled through the county
attorneys office. Both the sheriff
and former county attorney found
little criticism to make with the
department of the defendant prior
to his getting into this trouble.
They assert that he had always
been held in high esteem by his
nSksabors and friends, and that when
in Albany, Mo-, last week
and returned to Cody, had made a
complete confession of his crime.
While not making any statement
regarding the evidence as has been
submitted in the case, Judge Metz
directed Sheriff LOOMS to ask the
tate humane officer to come to
Cody and investigate the home en-
vironment of Ruth McKain, the
step-daughter of Peery, and the one
who has been wronged by his &C

Every business man in Cody is interested in the location

which has been studied by several committees of the Cody clut,
over a period of two or three years, and one which is to be
settled once and for all, it is hoped, on Monday, and a satisfac-
tory solution of the camp ground question will be reached. There
will be several projects offered for the consideration of the Cody
Club members, and also an amendment authorizing the expend-
iture OF any money for the purpose of a campground site. Should
THIS amendment receive a negative vote it is likely that the
