Eskimo Theory Of Death

The Eskimo theory Of death is pc
culiar to Christian eyes, and has re-
suited in many tragedies. 1t was be-
lieved that a man had two souls, one
good, one evil When he died the good
soul expected to spend eternity in
bliss and comfort in warm place I'M
foreground. His bad soul was sup
posed to remain on the spot where the
body died. lasting, harmful influence
over those who were luckless enough
to encounter it. When a person be-
came i'll the medicine man was sent
for. Almost always he pronounced
the case hopeless. The invalid was
then taken out of the iglOo and placed
on the snow to perish 1t was a logi-
cal proceeding, for if he died indoors
the igIoo would have to be abandoned
and sealed up forever.

In Appreciation
(Editorial)

1t is with regret that the management of the Park
County Herald announces the discontinuance of this publ
cation. To il our best efforts have been given for the
last fourteen years, and to it we are indebted for a good
livelihood and it has made it possible for us to purchase the
Cody Enterprise. However. the Cody Enterprise was e-
tablshed in 1899, at a time when the few people residing
here smiled at the efforts of the late Col. w. +. Cody and
Col. Peake, for their determination to give to the Cody
country n newspaper.
/. is for these reasons that we are continuing the name
of the paper which was established in the infancy of the
town. We are deeply appreciative of the generous support
of the business men of Cody and Of our many friends over
the county. who have taken such a large part in the maxi
ing Of the Park County Herald the success which it is,
and we hope to merit a continuance of this loyalty in the
publishing of The Cody Enterprise.
The policy of the paper will be one of upbuilding and
constructive work for the town of Cody, the county of
Park and state of Wyoming. We will endeavor to be as
fair as is humanity possible in every angle Of our work.
We invite the constructive criticism of all and will use
our every effort to give the public a newspaper which will
fill its every need.
AS the Park County Herald, we bid you goodbye.

In the merging of the two local
newspapers, it is but a step in the
line of progress, and one which is
being taken in many towns much
than Cody. The newspaper
business is fast being divorced from
politics and factional differences in
w~ide-awake communities and con
solidating of newspapers in small
towns is fast becoming an eco
monte necessity to both the pub
fishers and the business men who
with their advertising and COM
mercial printing, support them. The
local papers have covered practical
ly the same field, have made nee
cessary a duplication of equipment
and force Of workmen, and have
been almost a double expense to
the merchants who wished to be
represented in the advertising col
umns of each paper.
The Cody Enterprise. under the
new management, will make its for
NAL bow to the public next week,
the issue of June 18th. Mr.. Hunt
ington, who has been interested in
the management of the Enterprise,
will join the present force of the
Herald in issuing its new paper.
Mr. Abrahamson's plans are very
indefinite, but he will probably get
out of the printing office for some
time. .

The gas is to be secured from
the Ohio well in Oregon basin
which was drilled last summer, and
which, due to trouble with water
conditions was unavoidable last fall.
This spring about four hundred
sacks of cement have been placed
in the well, and when drilled thru
places the gas well under control,
and cases off the water which was
the retarding factor heretofore.
With Mr.. Hetzler in Cody at
this time is ]. w. Walker, engineer
of the company. who is making the
surveys for the gas line, and for
the distribution system within the
town. The plan is to have the ma
-terial on the ground within from
thirty TO forty-five days, and the
work will be pushed from that
time. A crew of men will immed-
lately set to work with the local
gas mains while the laying of the
feeder from Oregon basin will start
at the same time.
This will certainly be gratifying
news to the people of Cody, who
have waited patiently for many
years, in the hope that gas would
be secured within a reasonable dis
lance of the town, in quantities
sufficient to justify the piping of
1T here. But two towns within
the Basin nave not the convenience
of gas, Cody and Worland, and
1t seems that Worland is to alone

son. With the piping of a to

pany. which operates in Billings

the Big Horn basin. will have al

Fields of this part of the Basin, and
will have at its command an al
most inexhaustible supply of natur-
al gas.
Gas was first discovered at Ore
gon basin more than fifteen years
ago by the Enalpac Oil company,
a French syndicate operating there.
This company. however, due to CON
ditions brought on by the World
war, has done very little to develop
the field, and it remained for the
Ohio to develop a gas well. and un-
dertake to supply the town of Cody
with gas.
