LIONS CLUB ROAD LOG TO
BE ISSUED AGAIN THIS YEAR

The Cody Lions Club has COM
pleted arrangements for the printing
of the 1926 road log, which for the
past few years has been of great
benefit to the tourists travelling the
Cody road to the park in locating the
many scenic attractions on this pic
turesque highway.
This is the fourth year that the
Club has issued this little vest pock-
ct folder and the demand for it is
increasing each year. 1t is printed
in the form of a road guide and points
out all of the important natural
scene that may be see from the
road. 1t also points put the locations
of the principal dude ranches and re-
sorts and contains many bits of in
teresting information concerning the
Buffalo Bill country.
The contract for the printing of
the folders has been let to the aPrk
County Herald and they will be ready
for distribution within a short time.

Exhibits Pictures

Robert Marquis, formerly of Cody
and now located at Nenana, Alaska, as
a missionary for the Presbyterian
church, was in Cody a few days this
week. While here he exhibited a
wonderful selection of slides which he
had brought from the northland. The
pictures are all hand painted in ma
tural :clors and give a much more
comprehensive idea of Alaska than
can be gathered from any other
source.
In addition to his pictures he had
some of the articles of clothing which
are peculiar to that locality and which
are very interesting in their design.

Mr.. Marquis has been on a business
trip to the Atlantic coast and is now

New Dance Hall
Scores Opening Hit

The new dance hall under the Cody
Drug store in the basement of the
Pioneer building was officially opened
yesterday evening with a record
breaking mid-week crowd attending.
More than three hundred and fifty
people attended and took part in the
initiation Of the new floor.
The hall was beautifully decorated
in black and white and the floor and
orchestra could not be excelled. One
of the interesting features of the eve
ming was the giving out Of slips TO
each entrant for the naming of the
new hall and the one suggesting the
name which will be adopted will re-
ceive n cash prize of $25. TO be given
away Saturday night, when another
dance will be held.
In appreciation of the support of
the people of the town in the city
election yesterday, Dr.. Trueblood is
giving n free dance in his hall to-
night. "such popularity must be de-
servedm

PERRY W, JENKINS
OUT FOR GOVERNOR

Perry w. jenkins of Cora, Sub
lette county, has thrown his hat in
the ring and announced his candidacy
for the nomination for the office of
Governor on the Republican ticket.
Mr.. jenkins was in Cody a couple
of days last week renewing ~acquaint-
ances with friends in this place and
getting the lay of the land for the
coming primary. He is a man of
pleasing personality and should re-
ceive a large vote.
For the past 1S years Mr.. jenkins
has been a resident of Wyoming in
the Green River country where he is
engaged in the stock business. At
present he IS a member of the state
senate from Sublette county. He has
been in the state legislature for the
past four successive terms. He is
touring this section of the state at
this time to introduce himself to the
people.

CITY ELECTION
RETAINS TRUEBLOOD

Yesterday evening the people of
Cody had turned out a fairly repre-
sentative vote of 374, and picked the
Cooperative ticket as their choice for
the coming year.
The official ballot was as follows:
Trueblood 276; Edwards %; Owens
ITS; Corder 173; Tinkcom 253; Rich
ards 1877.
Mayor Trueblood and Councilman
Tinkcom are the former incumbrants
in these offices and w. S. Owens will
take the place of H. w. Thurston as
councilman, Mr.. Thurston having
withdrawn this year.
The election was one of the quietest
in the history of the town and was
marked by the absence of campaign
ing. Each ticket had the good will
and best wishes of the other and no
effort was made to discredit the abil-
ity of any candidate. Quite a CON
trast to some of the elections in the
past and we hope that there may be
more such in the future.

New Wholesale Gas
and Oil Equipment

The new tank car of the White
Eagle gasoline is now on the track at
the station and the work of installing
the gravity storage tank is under way.
The entire system will be operated by
gravity, from the tank car to the stor-
age tank and from the storage tank
to the tank for delivery.
Elsewhere in the Enterprise will be
noticed an ad of this new gasoline.
1t is of such quality that it should re-
ceive a generous patronage. The days
of the old gasoline of low test and
carbon forming properties are gone.
H. w. Thurston, local dealer, ex-
poets to have his new delivery tank
in operation next week. He is al
ready selling gasoline and oils.

Dave Jones to Open
Cleaning and Pressing

The finishing touches are being put
on the new building in the rear of
the Dave Jones Store. which is to
contain the new cleaning and pressing
plant in connection with the clothing
and shoe business of this popular
merchant.
The boiler for the steam supply has
been installed in the basement of the
main building and a balcony which
has been built over the offices in the
real and is already being utilized for
repair work.
The improvements in the main
store building make a decided change
in the appearance of the interior.
Mr.. Jones in entering the new field
feels that he will enjoy a generous
patronage, inasmuch as the two bus
inesses are so closely related and that
a substantial saving will be made in
the altering of his own line of cloth
ing.
The entire plant is expected to be
in operation next week.

JUNIOR HIGH STUDENTS
PENMANSHIP AWARDS
IThe CodY Broncl

Miss Winifred Mcbride, who is in
charge of the Penmanship work in the
Junior High school, submitted the
following report at the request of
Mr.. Hardin:
1t is customary in the Junior High
for students to work for awards which
are issued by the Palmer Method peo-
pie. They are allowed to do this only
when their work is up to a certain
standard. The sixth grade work is a
foundation for the seventh and eighth
grades where the students work for
the awards. Toward the end of the
year, a few in the sixth whose work
is good ar eallowed to work for these,
too. These drills are carefully in
spected and approved by the penman-
ship teacher before they are sent.
This year the Junior High class has
been very successful in obtaining
awards. Following is n list of the
successful ones, with the grade of
award received:
"E" Is first or Palmer button; "D"
Is second or Progress Pin; &C" is the

Hal C. Eyarts Show
at Rialto Next Week

A picture adopted from a book
written by Hal G.. Evarts, who for
merly resided in this section and is
well known in Cody, will be shown
at the Rialto theatre next week on
Thursday and Friday, May 20 and 81.
"Tumbleweeds" was written about
the opening of the Cherokee strip in
Oklahoma and was one of the first
books which Evarts wrote about the
southwest. His first works were
dealing with the game and characters
adjacent to the Yellowstone park
which he studied during the years of
his residence here. Since his leaving
here Mr.. Evarts has spent a great
deal of his time in the south and west
and always makes it a point to be-
come familiar with his subject and
gives all his stories a historical value
not often found in modern fiction.
"Tumbleweeds" ran in the Satur-
day Evening Post as a serial and was
no doubt read by many of Mr.. Evart's
Cody friends. Mr.. Evarts is the out
door editor of the Post and is at
present in Alaska where he is spend
ing his time in hunting and studying
the wild life of that region.
The picture is a production of the
United Artists and has such players
as w. S. Hart and Rudolph Valentino
as c~o-stars. 1t is a picture that has
received much praise from the press
and the theatres which have shown
it and will no doubt receive a large
attendance in Cody on account of the
author being so well known here. A
picture of this type which is said to
be better than "The Covered Wagon"
is much more worth while than the
ordinary run of pictures.

Burlington Bus Service
Sheridan $ Basin Country

Following the practice of the
Union Pacific, Chicago & Northwest
ern, Santa Fe and other roads trav-
ersing the scenic west and southwest,
the Burlington railroad may establish
a Deluxe coach service from Sher.
idan to the Big Horn basin regions,
it is believed by many who have con
sidered the feasibility of the PROPOSE
ton.
The Northwestern and Union Pa
ciic line in Wyoming are utilizing
such service for the accommodation
of their patrons who desire to visit
mountain scenery and attractions not
available from the passing car win
dow. In New Mexico and Arizona
the Santa Fe road has n bus service
which has proved very popular.
In view Of the fact that many de-
tails are connected with such a move
and that tourist traffic for the moun
tain business must be booked long in
advance, it is not believed the service
across the mountain will become n
reality before two years at least. By
that time il is hoped the Dayton-Kane
road will be federal and state highway
and maintained in proper condition.

CODY TAKES Third
IN Big HORN meet
(The Cody Broncl

OOoy c
Cody took third in the track meet
at Basin, Worland second and Their
mopolis first. Dallas Scholes was
Cody's high point man, taking two
seconds-one in the pole vault and
one in the high hurdles. Williams
beat Powell's star shot HEAVIER, Osher,
and netted another second. Google"
Earl Cogswell showed some real
speed and tied for third in the low
hurdles, when they were run over be-
cause of the failure of the starter to
notify the timers before the start. A
group of the high jumpers were about
evenly matched and Edwards tied for
second, third and fourth, with three
other jumpers at five feet. Fritzler
took a fourth in the 50-yard dash and
Walters fourth in the discus throw.
Cody's 440-yard runner, Kurtz, led
the field, promising a first place, but
his knee, hurt in football, gave out,
and he took third. Our relay team,
Hindman, Martin, Cogswell and Fritz
Ter, showed lots of speed and would
have taken more than the third which
they did, only most of the runners
jumped the gun. and Martin, our first
lap man, as any good track runner
should, waited for the start to recall
them. However, he hadn't noticed if,
so hat nut Martin behind. Then
something must have scared Andy,
for he put seven men behind him be-
fore he stopped. Hindman passed an
other, leaving only Thermopolis
ahead. Fritzler maintained this lead,
but Cogswell couldn't hold his lead
against the sensational last lap man
from Worland.
Staring with anv experienced man
in track. inst as in football and bas-
ketball. Cody High. with Weimer
coaching. finished in n creditable ia
shion with a close meet against Bel
fry. winners over Powell in a duel
meet and third at Basin.
With Kurt, Cogswell, Scholes, Ed
wards and the Younger fellows start
ed out by Coach Weimer this year as
n nucleus. Cody should make an even
better showing next wear, in the opin-
ion of those who watched the CON
tests this wear.
Following is n summary of the
track meet;
Thermopolis won first with a total
of 67h points. Worland second with
81 points. Cody third with IS points,
Grevbull fourth with 1874 points and
Rosin sixth with . points. Lowell
failed TO get a point.
But one record was broken. that
for the shot nut. The former record
of Al feet, 5 inches. made by Beall Of
