A VISIT FROM THE PRESIDENT

In all likelihood President and Mrs. Calvin C. Coolidge, and
party will come out of Yellowstone National park over the Cody
road one evening this week, and will dine at the Cody Inn and
en- train here for their return trip to- the Summer White house
at Rapid City, S. D.
1t is a most unusual event to have the President of these
United States make even the briefest visit in towns the size
of Cody, Wyoming, and interest is sure to be very keen here
for even a glimpse of the Cool" Cal and his charming wife.
What is most important however is that the Cody commune
ity should impress the President and his party most favorably
and to do this we must be in our "best" attire. We must make
every effort to have main Street" looking its best, the streets
raked and leveled as well as possible, and the town decorated in
a most fitting way to commemorate a visit from our chief
Executive.
President Coolidge and his party viii probably be in Cody
less than ten minutes. He will merely ride through here o. his
way to his special train at the station, but as he passes through
let's try to give him the best possible impression of Buffalo
Bills town in the Wyoming Rockies.

PARK COUNTY's ARMY

The grandest army of the republic marches against the cita-
das of ignorance early next month, 20O00O00 strong. Codys
regiments are modifying, with captains and lieutenants in COM
mand. Consumption is the rule. And as the army moves, so
moves the city, state and nation with it. In all the annals of
history no finer page has ever been written than that which
the triumph of free public education in the United States of
America.
One could describe this nationwide phenomenon in the lang
uage of statistics-so many children, so many schools, so mach
money, ETC., and etc. But let us view it from another angle.
An army of children, privileged in this respect above all the
children of earth, destined to grow into privileged men and wo-
men; citizens, not subjects; masters. not servants.
An army of voters more capable of exercising the great
function of the ballot because of mental equipment and the
power of decision, without which no free government is safe.
An army of mature minds better able to cope with pre-
judices, class consciousness and hatreds. An army developed
intellectually, dedicated to the making of a better today than
yesterday, a better tomorrow than either.
An army whose knowledge and taste shall inevitably raise
the standards of art, music, drama, and life in all their ramifi-
cations.
An arm by whose proud accomplishments in the past, and
whose promise for the future lends glory to the wisdom and
leadership of the nations founders. An army whose continued
wellbeing and happiness places an obligation upon each Ameri-
can to support the publin suhool system to the limit.

THE CHALLENGE TO ALL

A worse menace than that for which we went to war now
cenfronts us at home
Indifference to law, the daily making of thieves and murder
es, the breaking down of our social structure, license not liberty,
INDULGENCE not economy, carelessness not security.
Every young women in war time, with tremendous zeal
helped the struggle. Her patriotism is needed now even more
than then,
Millions were subscribed BY our business men to win the
war. Long hours of work were given with 81 a year IS the sole
monetary reward for the most intense service. But we II now
menace at home. and a like devotion and a like labor are needed
If life is to be at all worth living. The law of the jungle is
replacing the laws of sanity and reason. The health, the morals,
the very life and liberty of all are at stake.
Real patriotism is sincere service for the good of our coun-
try, which means service to fellow citizens more than to our
selves.
Every man and woman of influence in this country, for
sheer safety's sake, must enlist utmost efforts to uphold the
law and solve the vexing problem.
1t is the duty of every one to know the extent u the laws
violations now and the pernicious effects and to give every
ounce of energy to help save America from itself.

WILD HORSES BRING $3.50
IN HOT SPRINGS COUNTY

County Commissioned Bernard
Hawley was in from his ranch be-
low Thermopolis Tuesday. He said
that he had been informed that
the sale of horses gathered in the
wild horse roundup recently and
now held at the Larson corrais on
Kirby creek started early this week.
According to his information, a
number of heavy young horses had
been sold at $3.50 for work pur-
poses, while another bunch had
gone at $3.50 each. These prices
are higher than have been secured
in most parts of the state, due to
the fact that some of these are
young stuff and are not broom
tails.
1t is not expected that all of the
horses in the roundup will bring
as high prices as these did. The
sale will continue. AS soon as II
is completed in the north end OF
the county. the Copper mountain
section of the drive will be staged,

1t Is the reckless and careless driver
who causes the accidents and deaths.
Less attention. too, Is paid to this
class of driver by police on the roads
because of the speed laws. Careful
investigation has convinced me that
the policeman is watching primarily
for speed violations. When he sees
someone passing at a rate higher, say
than 35 miles an hour. waving al
friends turning to watch airplanes or
doing a hundred and one other things
which are exceedingly apt to result
in his crashing into another vehicle,
contend that IL the speed cops did
not have speed laws TO worry about

class of driver. who causes all the
havoc and danger of automobiling."

AS the train goes over certain por'

be established which will cause the de-

signalling the approaching motorist to
stop. The arms will continue to wave
until the train has passed. There Will
be red lights in the palms of each

To forestall the chance of the cleo

the electricity ceases to flow. When
the current again begins the arms
