nival this week, married women OF the
village have decided to get into the

throw rolling pins to do it.
Accordingly, the men in charge of the
big civic celebration in nearby Virginia

the embattled housewives to stage a
rolling pin hurting contest when the
carnival opens for three-night run

single beauties but they were quite a
blow to Lyon village. which is a new
community made up principally of
young married couples. A baby con-
test would have gone over with bang,
but competition for unmarried women
had its drawbacks. in view of the fact
that there are less than half a dozen
eligible girls in the community.
1t is said that the good housewives of
Lyon Village will enter the rolling pin
contest with enthusiasm. Practice al

MAKES REPORT ON
TRAILS LEADING
INTO WYOMING

f. ]. Johnson made report on the
use of the trails leading into Wyom-
ing from Rock Creek which is of in
terest. He states that the "Highline"
trail was checked for the reason and
375 horses made a round trip on this
trail during the three months it was
open. This is a record Of 1880 horse
miles for the 6 mile stretch. The 3
mile "Sliderock" trail was traversed
by 45O horses, making a total OF
$500 horse miles.
These records are as complete as 1t
is possible to make as there undoubt-
edly were cases where the trails were
negotiated and no record possible.
These two trails are the popular ones
of the region as they lead to Camp
Sawtooth, Camp Beartooth and the
fishing areas Of the Montana yom-
ing district. Every horse negotiating
the trails either carried pack or a
saddle both ways.
