WYOMING MOTOR cub
WANTS MEMBERS HERE

At the Monday luncheon the Cody
club voted to get solidly back of the
Wyoming Motor Club in an effort to
bring the local membership up to the
amount which the state chairman, DR..
Greenburg, has set for Park county.
This quota is one hundred members
at once.
Margaret Hyaden spoke a few
words in praise of the motor club and
its officials which she had met on her
trip to attend the publicity congress
at Casper.
The club is putting out some very
attractive folders which are an adver-
tisement for the state and will make
an exceptional showing as it is a
piece of art without doubt.
The membership plates are of brass
and will make a good ornament on
the front of any car. 1t is hoped that
the quota for Park county will be
subscribed at once.
Chas. Lowe is the local represent
alive of the club.

Southfork Ranch has
New Advertising Out

The Double L Bar ranch on the
Southfork has some of their produce
in the form of eggs on display at the
local stores this week which is quite
new in this part of the country and
is the last word in advertising. The
eggs are packed in cartons of one doz-
en- and have the date they were laid
stamped upon them. The outside OF
the carton carries advertising about
the ranch where the eggs were pro-
duced and is quite full in its descrip-
ton.
The points which they are putting
to the front in regard to the character
of the ranch and its activities are
their pack trips for both boys and
girls, Quitting hunting parties, and
their winter school.
The Double L Bar ranch is located
on the Southfork of the Shoshone. on
Hardpan creek. and is thirty four
miles southwest of Cody. With their
ideal location and progressive adver-
Using they should enjoy a generous
patronage from the people who desire
TO spend a vacation here either in the
or winter.

ger of Powell to Mr.. Frank NJ. Dug
ger of Seottsville, Illinois, occurred
at Cody on Friday of last week and
the two are now spending their first
few weeks of married life at the Allen
Digger home on the Northfork.
Frank Digger is a brother of Mrs.
Dugger's former husband, so that. in
this marriage the family name is re-
tained and no family ties or associa-
tons are disarranged. Both Mr.. and
Mrs. Digger have grown children. 1t
is gratifying to the many Powell
friends of the Digger family that Mr..
Digger came out west with the in
tention of making Powell his home
and he will be gladly welcomed by
all Powell people.
1t is possible that Mr.. and Mrs.
Digger may arrange to spend a con-
siderable part of the summer on the
northfork, but they will in time be
back to Powell to make their perman-
emit abode.-powcll Tribune.

NEW YORK, Aug. S1.-Rudolph
Valentino, the screens greatest
lover, will go back to find his final
resting place in the make-believe
city that enabled him to rise from
an immigrant gardener to fame and
wealth.
S. George Ullman, the late actors
manager, announced today he was
virtually certain that Alberto Gugh-
elmo, Valentines brother, who is
due from Europe on the Homeric
Wednesday, will consent to the
plans for burial in Hollywood,
where the screen colony plans a
magnificent memorial for the actor.
Ullman was so certain, in fact,
that he has reserved a car on the
Twentieth Century Limited. which
will leave for the West with the
body Wednesday afternoon.
The body, in its sealed silver and
bronze casket, lay in Campbell's
funeral parlors today in a locked
room to which no one was admit
ted. The casket will be opened for
the last time Wednesday, when
Guglielmo will have a final look at
his brothers face. Then it, will be
sealed again, probably never to he
opened as long as bronze endures.
