SUITS ISSUED
CANDIDATES OF
FOOTBALL TEAM

If the number of candidates re-
porting for practice is any indication
of n good football in the high
school, Rawlins this year will have
one of the best teams in the state
In proportion to the number of pu-
pills registered. On Monday 25 can
didates reported for practice to coach
T. L. Mcdonald and suits were is
sued to 22 men. 1t is probable that
changes will be made from time to
time.
The school officials are arranging a
schedule at the present time and IL Is
thought that the residents will have
a chance to attend several good
games in this line of sport during
the season.
Although this Is only the second
year that the school has ever had "A
football team 1t Is believed that the
coach has very good material to work
with and that the team will make a
creditable showing against the older
and more experienced teams in this
section OF the state. The candidates
who have reported seem very en-
thusiastic and are willing to learn
all possible about the game. With
this spirit and the spirit to fight the
school can hardly help but put out
n winning team.

PuTTEES SAVE RAWIINS
MAN FROM SNAKE BITE

On Sunday of this week while on
n fishing party about "a miles north
OF Rawlins Joe kaspar was struck
on his puttee by n rattlcsnake. The
fangs did not penetrate the leather.
-Four men. Robert and VIII Clause,
Jack Hodgson and Joe Kaspar were
walking along the Platte river when
kaspar felt something hit his put
tee. He looked down to see the
snake. A moist place was found on
the leather and the men are certain
that II was the poison from the
fangs. Closer examination
OF the puttee proved that the fangs
had NOT gone through the leather.
At this time of the year Il IL very
dangerous to be in the snake coun-
try for during August the snakes 20
blind and do not give any warning
before they strike. The poison ut this
time OF the year is also reported to
be more poisonous than Mt other
times OF the year. After the snake
had struck the puttec VIII Clause
shot II through the body and then
the head, AS soon as the lead hit
the reptile II began biting Itself.
kaspar Is indeed fortunate for had
he not been wearing his puttees the
possibilities are that he would have
never reached Rawlina alive for as
they were ~ miles from this
city and the roads were very rough
and II would have been hard to have
made good time on them.

Governor Ross in
Letter Gives Views
On Park Extension

l.. A.. Stanton, secretary of the
Carbon County Fish and Game Pro-
tectiye Association. as representing
the Association, sent a telegram to
Governor Ross protesting the pro-
posed extension OF the Yellowstone
National Park. The following letter
was received by Mr.. Stanton;
My Dear Mr.. Stanton:
Your telegram on behalf of the
Fish and Game Protective Associa-
tion OF Carbon County, expressing
the Views OF that club on the pro-
posed extension OF the Yellowstone
Park. has been received and read
with much Interest. iou viii under
stand that | have no authority in tho
matter, but In so far as my influence
Fan be used. II will be to support
the desires of the people OF Wyoming.
| feel that they should be given pri-
mary consideration when a decision
Is made.
II seems at this time. from express
sions which have come TO me. that
the sentiment Is strongly against ex-
tension, While | can see that there
are reasonable arguments on both
sides, I am Inclined TO the belief
that such action would be TO the
disadvantage OF this state.
Very truly yours

Tourists Camp Has
Been Popular With
Summer Travellers

That Rawlins' tourist camp has
been popular with summer travellers
Is shown in the number OF tourists
who have taken advantage of the pay
grounds and nave remained over
night in the camp. On Saturday
morning OF last week 1850 ears were
listed as having registered In the
camp and II is estimated that about
1900 cars have stayed at the free
camp since the opening on May 2Oth,
At this rate Il Is believed that the
camp viii pay for Itself In three
years. however. the value TO Raw
Inns will not be In dollars spent In
building the camp but rather In the
advertisement that II is TO this city.
From practically all who have
stayed over In the camp nothing but
praise has been heard and most Of
the tourists have expressed the opin-
ion that II Is the best camp between
California and points In the middle
states. Tourists are very good adyer-
tisers for they come from all over the
country and they are given TO talk
and commenting on tho different
points along the route, Thus the
merits OF Rawlins' camp have been
widespread and u is believed that
as the years pass tho camp viii be-
come much better known. Also at
the present time the camp II In it's In
fancy 40 In n few years whom tho
grass and trees yet = start II will
make a much better appearance.
II will take many more months
FOR RawlinH TO live down the repu-
,ation gained from the old tourist
camp. The old camp was a black
eye TO this city and most Of the resi-
dents feel very fortunate In now
having a real up-to-dato and attrac-
tive tourist camp.

STATE OF WYOMING
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT.
LABOR DAY PROCLAMATION

1t should be a source of satisfaction to all
Americans that no where else in the world are
conditions so. favorable to Labor as in this country,
and no where else is the dignity of Labor so uni
versally recognized.
What Labor has achieved is, without doubt.
chiefly the result of organization. Another CON
tributing factor has been the sympathetic interest
OF the general public in all movements tending to-
ward the establishment of such standards of living
as insure the happiness and we'll being of all the
people.
The interdependence of workers, whether in
the professions, IN business, in the trades, or in
those industries requiring primarily manual labor,
is In America fully recognized. Only in so far as
the welfare OF all is promoted and safeguarded, can
the general prosperity be assured.
Wyoming takes it's place among the other
states OF the Union in according to Labor recogni-
ton. of its essential contribution to. the upbuldino
of our great Commonwealth.
Therefore, /, Nellie Tayloe Ross, Governor of
the State OF Wyoming, do set aside and designate
Monday, the seventh day of September, A. D. 1925
ABO a
and | ask that all citizens of the State close their
places of business and participate in the parades,
meetings, and festivities which may be arranged in
celebration of that day.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto
set my hand, and caused the Great Seal of the State
OF Wyoming to be affixed.
Done at the Office of the Executive this
twenty-fourth day of August, A d. 1925.

One or two vacancies still remain in the teaching staff, how
ever, these positions will be filled in the very near future and
it is believed that the faculty and students will work in the

OF the pressure that was felt in sew
eral of the wards last year will be
relieved this year Superintendent
Bruton and Principal Meyer are to be
congratulated on the smooth and eff
ficient manner with which the year
was started.
Most of Monday was taken up in
registering the students and getting
them placed in the right rooms. On
Tuesday the confusion, hat is al
ways present with the opening of
school. was over and classes proper
started. Rules and regulations for
the faculty, teachers and suggestions
for parents, which were prepared and
distributed the fore part Of this week
greatly helped in getting the ma
chine in smooth working order.
A few changes from last years
schedule are noted, the main one be-
ing the starting of classes in the
high and junior high schools at $3.50
a. m. rather than 800 o'clock as it
has been in past years. The grades
90 at 800 o'clock, the same as past
years. The hours of school session
are as follows: Kindergarten 800
to 1915 (probable change in near
future) 1880 to PAS; First Grade
500 to 11:10, 1880 to $40; Second
Grade 900 to 1920. 1880 to 1920;
Third Grade 900 to 1880, 1890 10
800; Fourth Grade 800 to Has,
1880 to 3:4O; Fifth and Sixth
Grades 900 to 1900, 1880 to 3:45;
Department 500 to 1900. 1915 to
1856; High School $3.50 to 1900.
1918 to 400.
The enrolment of all schools in
Guiding Parco on Tuesday Of this
week was 935 students. The high
school has 40: Junior high 1913.
Central ward 1872. West ward III,
East ward 1870. South ward 3S and

for the next few weeks the enroll
ment will change from day TO day.
however, II is requested that parents
enter their children at the earliest
possible date that the children will
have the advantage OF getting a fair

TRAFFIC CENSUS REPORT
SHOWS IMPORTANT FACTS
COMPARISON TRAFFIC ON EAST, NORTH and WEST
ROADS WITH LAST YEAR SHOWS INCREASE
IN FOREIGN TRAVEL THROUGH STATE

The report of the census taken by the Wyoming Highway
Department on the east, north and west roads out of Rawlins
was completed a short time since and the results have brought
out many interesting facts not only regards the travel for this
but by making a comparison with last years report a
fairly accurate check can be made on the increase or decrease,
1T was in a few cases, on the roads in this section of the state.
On the general whole an increase is noted in almost every de-
the decrease in traffic being mostly local between
, 1925-09-03

Rawlins and Parco. Last year many
more men were employed at Parco
han this year and during the past
winter and summer a number of en-
ployees of that city have taken up
their residence in Parco who during
the traffic period last year lived in
Rawlins.
AS one of the interesting facts and
possibly the most important. every
o showed an increase in the num-
Der of tourists. On the east and
west roads fewer Wyoming cars
Travelled the roads but ON the north
there was a slight increase. Altho
a highway census is a fairly accur-
ate means of getting the travel on
the roads, discrepancies enter that
makes it impossible to get an alb
solute check.
The highway census was taken this
year on the east road during the
week of September 27th to August
LIST Inclusive: on the north road from
August End to Sth inclusive and on
the west road the following week.
Considerable rain fell during the
first two weeks of the census and
there was almost a steady downpour
from Sunday until Thursday of the
week that the census was taken on
the west road. This of course would
cut down the traffic to a consider.
able extent. especially the tourfs'
travel. This was the week also tina
there was a washout at Upton and
traffic was held up for a few days
Because of the Rocky Mountain High,
way being under construction traf
fic was also lighter on that road.
AS was also brought out in last
years census the traffic on the Lin,
coin Highway between Rawlins anC
Parco was by far the heaviest on any
of the three roads. 7.464 cars pass.
ed over the road during the week
making a daily average of 1,O66 ars
21,23O passengers were carried as
compared with 1880 last year
There were 5.047 cars that bore
Wyoming licenses and 2.3l7 were out
of state cars. Decreases are noted
in the total number of cars travel,
ing the road. passengers travelling In
the cars. in local travel and in ths
daily average of cars during the
week as compared with last years
travel but there was an Increase OF
300 cars that carried out OF state
licenses over last years number. This
is one proof that many more tourists
are travelling through Wyominp
each year.
More ears travelled the Lincoln
Highway west OF Rawlins this year
than did last but there were fewer
passengers and a fewer number oil
Wyoming ears travelling the road thi,
year, Almost 800 more tourists car
are listed as going over the west road
than there were last year.
Although as stated during a large
part OF the summer the Rocky
Mountain Highway north OF this city
has been under construction. in per,

to Indicate that more OF the tourists
are using the Rocky Mountain High.
