OIL CANS
GAME WITH THE
INDIANS MONDAY

The Oil Cans lost to the CHEYENNE
Indians in Cheyenne last Monday af-
ernoon by a score of IL to 8. The
Parco players, tired out after the
tournament and a long drive from
Denver to Cheyenne, arriving at the
latter place a few minutes before the
game was scheduled to start, played
a game far inferior in quality to their
usual showing.
Goldie Morrison hurled alright
ball for the Indians who supported
him well with but two errors to their
credit.
Peterson started the game for Par
co but was relieved by Waite in the
fifth. Neither Of the pitchers were
In condition to pitch and the con-
sequences are quite evident in the
final ore.
1t is quite probable that a return
game will be played in Parco some
int before the close of the season
but up to the present time no defin-
lite date has been set.

Baby Clinic Held in
ParcO Last Saturday
Reveals Unusual Fact

Forty Parco babies were examined
by DIR. A.. o. Sander last Saturday
afternoon at Parco's first baby clinic
and results show that an unusually
high percent OF the babies examined
were normal.
This fact is due to the high stan
dard OF living which is almost uni
versal In Parco. Ideal living condi-
lions augmented by a steady and sub
stantial wage scale extended to the
workers make such a standard OF
living possible. The absence Of the
so-called "slum districts" 80 prev
lent In many of the larger towns and
cities also has a direct bearing on the
results shown.
In addition TO these salient facts
one cannot overlook WyominE's eli
mate. Plenty OF sunshine and fresh
air do their bit In bringing tho glow
OF health to the checks OF the chill
dren and all these things combined
do u great deal towards the develop
mcnt Of "a strong healthy race OF
good Americans.

the Catholic Church have trebled be-
cause of Holy Year pilgrimages.
When hundreds of his subordinates
were enjoying the cool mountain
breeZes or refreshing sea bathing, the
Pontiff remained at his post in the
Vatican. receiving hundreds of thou
sands in audience. His days pro-
gram has been filled from early until
late, virtually every minute being
devoted to imparting blessings to
members Of his Church.
The Pope is one of the first of the
5000 inhabitants of the Vatican to be
astir, and the light in his study is al
ways burning some hours after his
-fatigued assistants have retired. His
mornings usually are taken up by re-
ceiving in private audience Cardi-
nails, archbishops. bishops and other
members of the clergy. These audi
ences last until about eleven, when
the first pilgrimages of lay members
begin pouring in.
These receptions have been reduc-
ed to a mathematical formula, the
ritual being as strictly adhered to as
the celebration of mass. Vatican Of
ficials. through months of practice.
have evolved a system of arranging
the various groups of pilgrims in
such a way that they go in and out
of the historic halls of the Vatican
without ever seeing each other.
While the Holy Father is distribut-
ing commemorative Holy Year med
ais to one group of pilgrims, giving
each his hand to kiss and imparting
the apostolic benediction, other
groups are being ushered into ada
cent halls. There the Pope repairs
to repeat the ceremony while the
first group is being ushered out by
another exit and the first hall is be-
ing refilled with another pilgrimage,
perhaps from the opposite side of the
globe. The reception period usually
is from IL a. m. until nearly three
p. m.
The pontiff then goes to his private
dining room for lunch, after which
he sometimes takes short nap. He
then resumes his private audiences
with members of the clergy. These
audiences continue until nearly six
p. M, when the second period of re-
ceiving pilgrimages begins. This
second period frequently lasts until
after eight o'clock.
Into this packed program the Pope
usually manages to receive various
Vatican officials for discussions of
matters of high Importance. Cardinal
Gasparri, Vatican Secretary of State,
has long private conversation with
the Pope once or twice a week.
Those who have seen him through
out the summer declare His Holiness
has stood the strain of his arduous
duties remarkably we'll Having a
strong constitution, built up by years
of mountain climbing, he seems as
robust now as before the baking,
torrid heat of Rome set in.
