CODY HIGH ALUMNI Z
WIN OVER POWELL

In one of the spirited games of
the season, the boys of the Cody
High School alumni clashed with
a team of the Powell Highs school
alumni on Saturday afternoon on
the Cody gridiron, with the result
that Cody took the measure of the
Alfalfa boys to the tune OF 10 to O
The game was spirited from the
outset each of the teams showing
a real flash. Cody took the lead
when young Andrew Martin got
away to a long run and a touch
down on the second play OF the
game. from which time on the
Powell boys were trailing a second
best.
Each of the teams played re-
markable football when it is con-
sidered that neither aggregation
had had any real practice. BY
rounding up the players of yester-
years Cody had developed a strong
eleven with Johnnie Hutsonpillar.

HOLIDAY TURKEY SHIP
MENT TO LOAD DEC. &c

The Big Horn Cooperative Mar
keting Association has made its
call for the holiday turkey ship
ment and birds will be received at
THE local depot from December End
to 9Th. All turkeys at all ready
for market should be shipped at
this time. Market is good and
should net around 4Oc for first
class birds.
According to Earl Newton the
local station, which is the old Oar
rah Lumber yard building two
blocks south of First National bank
will be opened on Friday of this
week to receive turkeys which are
to be dressed by the association.
All birds delivered alive should be
brought in on Friday and Saturday.
On Monday and Tuesday of next
week turkeys prepared for shipment
will be received and loaded as fast
as is possible.
The same specifications as in
force in the past will govern the
classification of the turkeys in this
shipment. No. l Toms must weigh
dressed, IL pounds or owe with
no scuffs or bruises, no broken
bones. straight breasts, well bled
and with head and feet entact.
No. l hens must weigh 8 pounds
and over dressed and meet the
same requirements of the first class
Toms.
Second class birds will include
all those below No. 1 standards,
and yet marketable. No culls will
be received. The turkeys should
be thoroughly cooled, yet not froze.
The shipment sent out for the
Thanksgiving trade were taken by
the association at the price of 38c
for the first class turkeys. The
bonus on these birds which will be
received soon will probably bring
this price up to between 40c and
42c. The holiday birds should bring
an equally high price. but no fig
ures are as yet available.

$50" WRITTEN FOR
CODY FIRST PRINTER
George Nelson, Passes to Reward
After Illness Several Months
Was One of Towns First
Citizens

-
George Nelson died on Monday
afternoon at his home in cas- Cody
after an illness of several months.
He was operated upon a Sew weeks
ago, and seemingly was getting
along very well, but a turn for the
worse came last week, and on Mon
day he passed on to the Great Be-
yond. Funeral services were held
this morning by Rev. A.. H. Beatty
from Vogel's funeral chapel, and
interment made at Riverside
terry.
Mr.. Nelson was one of Cody's
first citizens, and the first printer
to locate in the Buffalo Bill coun-
try. When Cody was founded he
claimed the distinction of being the
18th" citizen of the town and
when Col. Cody brought in a print
ing plant it was George who set
it up and helped in getting out
the first paper.
Having learned the printers
trade in an uncle's shop in Min
nesota. the adventurous spirit of
George Nelson called him west, and
forsaking the job stick and types
he came to Wyoming and turned
his hand at anything which he could
do. When Cody was in the build
ing he vas driving a freight out
fit down from Red Lodge, and in
fact brought in the printing outfit
which vas to be used in the esta-
blishment of a newspaper here.
Wbap Col rodv found that Naoraa
could stick type he was immediate
ly denoted to the print shop, and
became the boss hand of Col.
Peake for several years in the
newspaper work.
City life did not agree with Mel
son however, and he finally tool
up carpenter work and was a valu-
ed employee of W. R. Coe in the
building of Coe Lodge and later
at many of the other Coe proper
ties. A man of industrious habits
and ready to grasp what was want
ed of him, he continued in the
service of Mr.. Coe for several years
in Wyoming. and upon leaving here
four years ago, worked for him
at his home at Oyster Bay, New
York. MI. Nelson returned to Cody
last spring in the hope that the
West would assist him in regain
ing his lost health and his last
work was. on the Cody Museum
which is to house the relics and
trophies OF his old friend, Col. w.
F. Cody.
George Nelson was born at Kel-
logg, Mimi. 81 years ago, being
one Of the large f1mily of Mr.. and
Mrs. Ole p. Nelson of tina place.
His parents. native of Norway, came
to America in 1861, locating first
in Iowa, and later making their
way into Minnesota, afoot, carry
ing with them the few belongings
with which they started life in the
place where they made their home
for than forty years, and
where his father lived to be 90
years of age. dying in December
last year.
He received a good education
and learned the printers trade In
Minnesota and came to Wyoming
about thirty years ago. Four years
ago he was married, in New York
City, residing there until last spring
At his death he is survived by his
wife and one child, about two
years old, and four brothers and
two sisters, Louis Nelson of Kel-
logg, Edward Nelson of Duluth,
Andrew Nelson o. Milwaukee and
Fred Nelson of Washington. Mrs.
H. A. Hall of Middle River and
Martha Hill of Warrington. Ore.

known rs Joe Bush. died at the
Powell hospital on Friday after
noon. where he was taken a week
before suffering with a serious case
of Dursted appendix. He was OPP
Grated upon upon his arrival at

Funeral services were held at
Cody. Sunday. from vogel's funeral
chapel by Rev. G.. S. Upton of the
Methodist church and burial made

years, coming here with the Nord-
quist family when they located on
Irma Flat. He was an all around
ranch hand and cook, and for the
past few months had been with
Wilkinson and Nordquist at the
P-P ranch, on upper Jim creek.
Joe as he was better known by
his many friends, was not one to
talk much OF himself. and very
little is known of his early life.
"A man of Industrious habits and
friendly disposition, he was well
liked by all who knew him. Mr..
and Mrs. Pete Nordquist were with
him during his last days at Pow
ell. cheering him up in his last
Illness. He is said to have two
brothers residing somewhere in
Kansas.

SCHOOLED FARMERS

Education pays-particuarly for boys who in
tend to become farmers. This has been proved by
a survey taken in twelve of our agricultural states
to discover the relation that common school,
high school and college training has upon the
earning capacity of farmers.
In Texas it was discovered that an meducated
farmer might earn $4,000 in forty years; while
a farmer who spent twelve of the forty years in
school might earn $4,000 in forty years. That
is to say, the farmer who spent twelve years in
school will earn $4,000 more in forty years than
the farmer who never went to school. In the
twelve years the Texas lad will have spent 216O
days in school, These 2,16O days in school will
net him $4,000 by the end of forty years, or an
average of about $9.25,a day for every day spent
in school. Not bad wages!
In Georgia it was discovered that the annual
net profit of the uneducated farmer is about S24O;
while the annual net profit of the farmer who has
had common school education is S5655O the an
nual net profit of the farmer who has had high
school education is $664.5O, and the annual net
profit of the farmer who has completed an agri-
cultural college course is 1884.
In Missouri it was found that the scales tin CON
sistently in favor of the better educated farmers
They own four-fifths of the land they operate
They keep more livestock. They handle more
crops with each workman They do about one
fifth more business
In Wisconsin is was found that the farmers with
high school education acquired the ownership
OF their farms in about seven years, while it took
the farmers with only common school education
about ten years to acquire clear title to their land
In Indiana, in Illinois, in Iowa, and in Kansas
the story runs true to FORM In all these States in
both owner and tenant groups, the better educated
are earning better incomes
Farmer fathers with sons should consider these
facts-and give their boys a chance

NOT SON OF MARS

Perhaps any of US, if following army life, would
have the same time for super-specuation which
has been going rounds in Washington army circles
as to why Colonel Lindbergh did not wear his
uniform a Colonel of the Missouri National
Guard when he walked off the cruiser Memphis
to receive his OvatiOns and decorations.
One sufficient explanation is that there was no
reason why he should have worn it.
Another, which is explanatory enough in his
case, is that his innate modesty must have rebeed
against anything partaking of pomp or parade
1t a plain American boy, unsupported in
any way by the Government, who flew to Paris,
and it is just as well that the hero who returned
was the same boy, without any official tag. Of
course ne not ashamed of his National Guard
uniform, though it probably did seem a trifle
phoney, but there are times and places for uni
forms like everything else.
His venture was not a military one
To have returned in the regalia of son of Mars
would have limited at an initiation which was not
his.
He made no mistakes appearing in America as
the plain American boy who flew away.
His refusal to wear uniform a credit to
his father, and rebuke to those who would use
his glory for Jingo propaganda.

ciated with the law makers-tO them the "majes-
ty of the law" is bald farce-than to the average
disillusioned citizen.
There are thousands of laws passed every year,
only a few of which the people know anything
about,-fewer still of which there is any pretense
of enforcing.
Even the lawyers are not familiar with more
than half of them.
The only use of many laws is for political pur-
poses on special occasions-when the ruling class
wants to use the Jail on "a recalcitrant slave,
when it wants to disgrace and discredt danger
Gus labor leader.
But there is a fundamental law written into the
American basic law and code that these leg
al zealots like Sargent ignore every day-that IL
the law guaranteeing the freedom of Speech of
pulpit, Of the press, and of religious belief This
principle of liberty is very CALLING to the ruling
cass-there is no majesty of law, when the "rights
Of men" of working men are concerned in conflict
with the right of mammon.
We note the National sedtion laws the Mon
tana sedition laws, the California sedition laws,
which are clearly in contradition to the plain
tenets of the Constitution but which have been
sustained in violation of the fundamental law by
bewigged agents of the ruling class, setting on
the bench
Inc lawyer mind, with its worship of formula,
its slavery to precedent and procedure shackled
to echoes of the past, is probably in this day of
realism, about the greatest jest of all.
The ridicule of the law, however, comes not
from the mass, but the class. The great newspa-
pers never miss day without jibe about law.
In the daily lives of the rulers law is not even
an element.
To them it is jOke-law is not meant for them
Sargent well knows and understands this: but this
jest, fun-poking and ridicule about the law,
SO constantly repeated is breaking down the re-
spect for and belief in the impartial majesty of
the law on the part of the llusioned masses
which BODIES no good for the masters and Sargent
realizes this: so he wants to stop jesting about the
law and cease holding the lawmakers and judges
up to contempt.
Sargent sees the danger of playing with fire
once the people realize that it is all joke, they
wont be so bound by it, which would mean bad
mess.

Irregularity Of Job Hits
Building Trades

Unemployment is revealed as a re-
curing course to building trades
workers in a report by the Massachu-
setts department of labor. On the
average throughout the year nearly a
fifth of these wage eamers are idle
primarily on account of lack of work
or materials.
The number unemployed May 2, ac-
cordlng to the report, constituted
1890 of the total membership of the
unions covered. This was a decided
improvement over April 1 when
27.4%o were out of a job. Electrical
workers reported the best condition
with only 11.496 out of work. At the
other extreme the hodcarriers and
building laborers reported 31.79o un-
employed. For other occupations the
percentages were bricklayers, masons
and plasters 1890; carpenters 16.8q6,
lathers 19.49o; painters, decorators
and paperhangers 17.7@6; plumbers,
gasfitters and steamfitters 26.9% and
sheetmetal workers 1850.
The percentages of building trades
union members unemployed at the
close of the quarter ending March
81, June 80, Sept. 80 and Dec. 81 of
the years 1908 to 1923 were:
