May Postpone Park
Opening Ceremony

Although the Yellowstone National
park will be open for tourists on and
after June 18th. and the ~transporta-
ton company, hotels and camps in
the park, will begin their seasons op-
erations on that date. the ceremony
marking the official opening of the
nations playground may be delayed
a day or two, according to word from
Livingston, the Rotary club of which
city has charge of the program for
the occasion.
The delay in the ceremony may be
necessary in order to assure the pres
ence of President Adams of Rotary
International and Stephen T. Mather,
Director of national parks. 1t will in
no way interfere with the admission
of tourists who will expect accommo-
dations on and after June 18th.
If the opening is delayed, as now
is probable, several special trains car
rying Rotarians from the information
al convention at Denver, will accom-
pany their chief to the park for the
occasion, it is understood, and the
Helena Boys band, which is to be
taken to Denver by the R~otarians,
may be returned home by way of the
park to take part in the opening GER
emonies.

WHAT'S THE USE

What's the use of scrapping and quarreling every time you fail
TO have your own way about things? What is accomplished by
wranglrng over unimportant details anyway? Sometimes you get
what YOU want, more often you do not-but in either case the result
is affected but little through wrangling and fussing. The person
who remains calm under annoying circumstances has a better mind
than the one inclined to ely off the handle" at a moments notice.
The fellow who splits on his hands, cracks his heels together and
threatens to clean up all who disagree with him. advertses to the
world that he is rattebrained and equipped with but one resource,
a show OF force. Even many OF the things that seem of tremendous
Importance at the moment, fade or entirely disappear with time. Not
so with the mean things said and done in spite and anger. The petty
selhshness that IS exposed, the httleness and the intolerance eNhib-
tied IN disputes and wrangles, live long in the memories OF people
who might otherwise be your friends. If this be preaching-then
make the most OF it.

THE GARDEN

1t seems rather hard and dirty work to folks who like to keep
their white cuffs clean. But to the educated gardener it is an adj
venturous sport. 1t seems so incomprehensible, as he sticks those
puny little seeds in the ground, seemingly no more important than
little stony pebbles, that they should ever blossom forth in sweet
flowers and juicy vegetables.
a few days later when they stick their little noses above the
ground, and start on their summer work, the wonder OF the trans
formation never ceases to impress him. 1t makes him feel as If he
were a partner OF great unseen forces that make the world go
around.
The experienced gardener finds pleasure in using his skill so as
10 favor the little seed things, so as to give them their best start in
the world, and he somehow feels that they are thanking him for
making obstacles in the way Of growth as slight as possible.

GETTING L SHARE

We notice in the neighboring papers and in all the papers over
the state that they are congratulaung themselves upon the recent
persistent rains which have been such a big benefit to the range and
the farmer. Park county has certainly received its share of these
rains and the prospects for the coming summer are very bright from
a range and feed standpoint. These so-called million dollar rains
have also hit in this locality and the estimate of their value would
probably run beyond the million mark.
With shearing time over and a large clip of wool now on the
market, Landing being successfully brought to a close and the gen
eral livestock conditions the best for several years after an easy win
ter the prospects for a prosperous year ahead for the agriculturists
is indeed bright for Park county and the entire state.

SHOWING PROPER SPIRIT

The merchants and business men OF Cody showed that they had
the proper spirit when it came to supporting a local enterprise OF
merit when they so generously donated for additional prizes for the
Stampede upon being solicited last week. Elsewhere in the Enter
prise will be found an article concerning the Stampede and a list
of those who have shown their willingness to support the STAN
pede and make it bigger and better than ever. The addition of these
prizes Will make a much better drawing card and will no doubt all
be returned in the larger crowd that will attend. 1t is such a spirit
that makes any community or pubic enterprise a success.

Guard at the Unknown's Tomb.

A military guard will probably be
posted at the tomb Of the Unknown
Soldier in Arlington Cemetery to in
sure that visitors at the tomb shall act
becomingly. 1t is reported that Presi-
dent Coolidge looks with favor upon
the proposal to put uniformed guard
there and that when the detail of this
pla is worked out he will approve it
officially and put 1t into effect. The
garrison at Fort Myer will probably
furnish the guard. From time to time
1t has come to public notice that some
persons so conduct themselves at the
tomb az to give Offense to other Wis
itors and that they violate the prOprie-
ties of the place. 1t is said that some
persons use the fiat tomb as a seat
and that some spread lunches on it,

tention, do not salute or do not remove
their hats at the tomb. Some pilgrim
parties are too gay, and laughter, con-
versation and badinage go uRre-
strained. A committee representing
the American Legion called on the
President and asked him to support a
resolution introduced in the House by
Representative Furlow that a chain
be put around the tomb as a barrier
and that a guard be kept on duty
there. 1t is reported that the Presi-
dent told the committee that legisla-
tion to give protection to the tomb
was not necessary, as It In within his
powers to have appropriate measures
taken. 1t is very likely that the com
ma nding officer at Fort Myer will add
the tomb Of the Unknown Soldier as q
post to those already maintained by
the garrison and that the presence Of

Otherwise the situation at Geneva is

Police Court and Jail Reform.

Prompt response has been made to
the disclosure in The Stas of bad
| situations a. the Police Court and at
the Jail. Members of the House OF
Representatives who are charged with
responsibility for District legislation
are aroused by the revelation OF the
shocking conditions, and are planning
an early inspection With a view to the
adoption Of remedial measures at this
session of Congress.
Expla nation of the reasons for these
unsatisfactory conditions turns strict
ly upon the point OF lack Of funds The
truth is that the Police Court and the
Jail have increased In patronage be-
yond the scope OF their accommodate
tons. The Jail stands exactly as it
has for more than half a century. and
the popula atiOn Of the District has in.
creased vastly In that period. The Po.
lice Court has about the same cell
facilities today that il had forty wears
ago. Meanwhile Washington has
grown no better i'm beha, ior and the
demands for cell space have Increased
Not only are the cell spaces at the
Police Court wholly inadequate. but
the court itself has long since been
outGrOwn. 1t is a compar rativeiy new
building. but it should he enlarged by
AT least 100 per cent. There should be
better facilities for the assemblaSe of
witnesses, for consulta ton. for the
trials themselves and especially for
he housing Of prisoners awaiting trial.
The judges at the Police Court add
their pleas to the demand for better
accommodations. The superintendent
of the Jail points out that there is no
money to buy new bedding and urges
that fresh paint is needed. He notes
that the sharpest economy must be
practiced in the kitchen to keep the
expenditures within the budget.
A striking fact has been noted
with reference to the maintenance Of
the jail. For the fiscal year ending
June 80. 1921, the appropriation for
the Jail was S591SS, and 3.804 prison
ers were cared for there during that
period. an average Of about $3.50 for
each prisoner. For the current fiscal
year the appropriation is $4,000. and
it Is estimated that ~ 900 prisoners
will be accommodated there during the
IL months, making an average ex.
pense per prisoner Of less than $3.50.
There has been a erievous misadiust-
ment in this case, the estimates OF cost
and OF requirements being decidedly
inadequate. But whether the appro-
priation for maintenance should re-
main as it is or should be increased.
there In no question that the Jail has
been out grown. No amount Of money
for equipment, or for better food. or
for more thorough sanitation can cure
the condition in which seven prisoners
are compelled to occupy a single cell.
