In tho house Mr.. Carson from the
committee on memorials submitted
the following which received unani-
nous approval. Speaker Underwood
and several members speaking to the
subject:
"All Of US IN some way or another,
in III lives, recognize a supreme
being. It matters not how we may
do that. but we all some way reach
that conclusion and we realize in
that conclusion that the supreme
being does call US here and he does
call us away.
within the past few hours he has
seen fit to call away from active
labor in this state n OF the most
respected citizens and a former Off
car Of this stAtc-Luke Voorhees,.
Many of you may not have known
him-many of you may have. He
was, / believe. the first man who
came to tho state of Wyoming and
actually became a citizen. Few of
US. perhaps, realize from this brief
statement what this man must have
gone through In those early days to
make 1t possible for US to be here.
Some years ago I had occasion to
be in Douglas at what they called
1.-THE Industrial Fair and at which
they had a meeting of the old timers.
They began their roll call with those
...l- ..~-- a. %L. ,tat- h.t~r.-~ thA
years 1870 and 1850. The only two
men who responded to this roll call
| were Luke Voorhees, and Mike Henry
who has now been dead some years.
There was nc other man-Mr. Nc
Gee OF Cheyenne, who was in the
| state at the time Mr.. VOORHEES, and
| Mr.. Henry were, but he was not pres
| ent at this roll call. These three men
were. l believe. the first men who
made any effort to locate and live in
the territory which is now Wyoming
Few of US realize what the energy
and determination of such mon IN
those early days must have under
| gone. They were the pioneers that
made It possible for the state Of Wy
omlng TO be, and as such they are
entitled to the greatest respect in
| the history of this state. ] feel that
this assembly should take a%ppropri-
ate recognition OF these men who
have been called away by a supreme
being to prepare other frontiers for
us. I would say this Of Luke Voor-
hees, whom l knew best-he was
at all times a man and a friend, solid,
dependable and true. OF no man can
we say more. His life has been worth
while to those of us who were for.

DAWSON kIWANIANS
MEET WITH ALBANY
FOUR SOUTH GEORGIA TOWNS
HELD JOINT SESSION ON
THURSDAY NIGHT.

A joint meeting of the Dawson, Al
bany, Sylvester and Moultrie Kiwanis
clubs was held Thursday night in Al
bany, at which there was an attend
ance of about $50, including lady
guests.
Each OF the four clubs presented a
complete program OF twenty minutes.
OF Dawsons program the Albany
Herald had the following:
REV. M. l.. Lawson presented an
interesting section of the program in
behalf of the Dawson club. H. c. Has
selbring, accompanied by Mrs A. B.
Hamilton, rendered a beautiful violin
solo. r. R Jones delivered an address
on kiwanis Ideals and a quartet,
consisting of NJ B. HUE, Byron Coop
er, George Jennings and Jesse Cham
bliss, sang several numbers that were
loudly applauded.
The Dawson quartet made such a
hit that the young men had to respond
to encore after encore, and other clubs
were quick to claim that some mem
bers of the quartet formerly lived in
their towns.
Mr.. Jones spoke in happy vain,
illustrating his remarks by many
stories that were greatly enjoyed. He
said that Kiwanis is a distinctly Amer
lean idea, and works for civic pride,
public improvement and expansion,
fellowship and other good things. He
said that if a Kiwanis club does moth
ing in a concrete way it is neverthe-
loco 1a1,,ah1a ~ n cOnrnunifv IN ac-
count of the public spirit it engenders
He expressed pleasure at being able
to attend the meeting, and assured
members OF the other clubs that Daw-
son would be glad to take part in more
of these joint meetings"
The joint session was unanimously
voted a great success by all clubs at
tending, and the hope was expressed
that more meetings of the kind will
be held in the future.

LADIES! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
Will Know

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother's time.
She used it to keep her hair beautifully
dark, glossy and attractive. Whenever
her hair took on that dull, faded or
streaked appearance, this simple mix
ture was applied with wonderful ef-
feet
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for bottle of "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will
get this famous old preparation, i'm
proved by the addition of other ingre-
dents, which can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
hair.
Weil-known druggists say it darkens
the hair so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied
You Simply dampen sponge or soft
brush with II and draw this through
YOUR hair, taking one strand at time.
BY morning the gray hair disappears,
and after another application or two, 1t
becomes beautifully dark and glossy.
