Aid the Red Cross

The annual appeal to the American Red Cross
for funds to carry on its important work in the service
of mankind comes to us with particular force this
season. The year 1927 witnessed several disasters OF
tremendous proportions resulting from unusual acts
of nature. While taxing the resources of the Red
Cross, this great organization actively stepped. into the
front line and carried on the work of relieving want
and suffering. The unparalleled Mississippi flood, the
st. Louis tornado and now the devastating New Eng
land floods have been disasters attracting national at
tention. Not since the Great War has there been such
a demonstration of the value of the Red Cross and its
capacity for service, as during the year just closing.
Disasters lesser in scope have not found this splend-
id organization lacking and Wyoming gives thanks for
the prompt and efficient service brought sufferers
from the flood which swept the valley of the eros
Ventre River upon the breaking of the great slide dam
last May.
Indeed our attention may well be directed to the
appeal now made by the American Red Cross for funds
to continue its humanitarian work.
/ sincerely hope that the citizens of Wyoming will
answer roll call this year inspired by a generous i'm
pulse to share as strongly as individual ability will
allow, in the relief of those who suffer in the great
disasters of our country and the world.
A C. EMERSON,
Governor.

CODY FATHERS AND
SONS DINE TOGETHER
Annual Event Most Popular-Prin-
cipal Address by Scout Ex-
ecutive of Casper. Wyoming =

More than $50 fathers and sons
sat down to a sumptuous banquet
together on Wednesday evening of
last week, in the basement of the
Methodist church, marking one of
the finest events of this kind ever
held In Cody. A fine program of
speaking, music and toasts had
been arranged and the occasion was
a most enjoyable one. The eats
were furnished by the ladies of
the Methodist church, and were
served in abundance TO ali, the
crowd all but taxing the capacity
of the large banquet room.
r. w. Allen had been selected
to preside at the banquet and in
ltroduced the speakers. Ben New
conner gave the toast for the sons,
and his remarks were unusually
fine. Ben is a good speaker, had
given his subject much thought and
preparation, and his toast was right
to the point. Ernest J. Goppert
made the response. and voiced the
pleasure of all the dads in being
able to meet with the young men,
and dine with them on this annual
occasion.
The principal address was given
by Mr.. e. E. Skinner, chief scout
executive of Casper, Wyoming. who
has had many years service with
young folks. Before his scout work
Mr.. Skinner was engaged in edu-
cational work in schools, and is
most ideally equipped to deal with
the younger people and their prob
lens. His talk was most inspiring,
well received by both the boys and
their dads.
A full musical program had been
arranged, with the high school
orchestra rendering several very
fine numbers. Paul Hanson sang
Forgive Me" and Louis Moore
rendered a beautiful cornet solo.
Community singing was also en-
gagged In.
The committee in charge of the
banquet feel deeply ~appreciative of
the service rendered by the ladies
of the Methodist Aid society for
serving the fine dinner and also
to Rev. G. s. Upton and Prof. r.
z. Robertson for their active work
in arranging the details for the
event.
