W. Allen, representative of the Denver Union Stockyards w: visited here while enroute to Denve at the conclusion of the meeting of the Wyoming Woolgrowers’ associa- tion which was held in Lander last, week. To substantiate his statement Mr. Allen mentioned a subscription | of $1,020.51, which was raised in less than 10 minutes by the Woolgrow- ers for the Wyoming Children’s Home | which has branches at Lander and Wheatland. The donation was made | at the conclusion of a short program! whieh was put on by the children at the Lander institute for the enter-| tainment of the visiting woolgrowers. | “I never saw such enthusiasm and | patriotism at any meet of its kind,”, said Mr. Allen, “every stockholde: | in the state has the idea that he, can’t do too much to assist the criti- cal times that are to come during! the reconstruction.” | In speaking of the interests, which} he represents, Mr. Allen stated that) Wyoming stock shippers were very | much pleased with the co-operation | they received from the Denver yards as was evidenced in the great in crease that the Denver institution had experienced during the past year. Sales to the Denver yards increased 100,000 head of cattle during the year, and 40,000 head of sheep with @ great percentage of this increas. cosing frou Wyoming shippers. ‘ Mr, Allen praised Lander peopk | in the fairness and courtesy they ex-| tended the visitors during the week and ‘stated that he had not noticed a raise in price of any commodity or ir accommodations of any kind for thc visitors.

She is a gray, dingy, nodescript kind of ship, per- haps a collier or a coastal tramp. But all London is flocking to St. Kather- ine’s Dock to see her, for the frowsy | old tub represents a development of naval warfare which produced some of the finest heroism in the history of sea fighting. According to Sir Eric Geddes, first | lord of the British Admiralty, noth- ing could be more inspiring than the conduct of the officers and men on the “Q” ships—those mystery — ships where for hours the men lay, and were shelled and killed and lay un- tended until the opportunity came to sink the enemy.” This “Q” ship is certainly not what she seems, At a signal her hatch- ways can disclose glistening 4-inch guns, and her harmless-looking stays rap out wireless messages. For more than two years her ipper, Lieut.- Commander Auten, V. C., and her crew, all of whom remain with her, have been hunting U-boats Gunner Cunningham, distinguished service medal, visitors to the ship how they tackled submeriies, Leading the way to the forecastle, he points to a haw: reel lying on the deck. ‘“That’s a dummy,” he says. “It’s the skipper’s lookout when a submarine ighted This little smokestack is also a| dummy—it hides a periscope. The skipper from his look-out would give the range to the hidden gun crews, “No sign of life was to be seen on the ship after a “panic party” had put off in an open boat until the order came—‘fire!? Then this fore- hatch flew open and the sides of that dummy cabin fell outward, and the two 4-inch guns got to work, We set- | tled one U-boat with twelve hits out of fourteen from one gun and seven out of eight from the other.” The crew of this decoy ship hunt- ed submarines in an old steamer call- ed the Stock Force until the forepart of that vessel was blown away by a torpedo. It was on the, Stock Force that Lieutenant-Commander Auten won ‘the - Victoria cross. Spee R. T.
