Under date of April 19, 1919, the war time activities in the state, the State of Wyoming Historial depart-; ment proposes to have county organizations at work on! this material within a short time. | Appointments of a full list of county chairmen are pending. and the co-, operation of the newspapers wil! be} asked in bringing the matter to the | attention of the public. | The importance of collecting and preserving Wyoming’s activities in! the great world war was realized by! the Council for National Defense and in August, 1918, Miss Agnes’ Wright, state librarian, was appoint- ed chairman of the state historical nittee. The committee under- took, with the aid of volunteer com-; mittees to be organized in all coun-| ties of the state, to collect the names and records of every Wyoming man who served in the great war. This work was ably conducted by Miss Wright and her library assistants without compensation, and a splen- did foundation was laid when the legislature created the office of state historian and assigned as one of the duties the carrying to completion of this very important task. This work is now well under way in sixteen of the twenty-one counties. Many lead- ing citizens have accepted service on the local committees willingly and have done a wonderful work. By far a greater part of the work, how- ever, both of perfecting a state wide organization and of collecting ma- ferial yet remains to be done. The material upon which any state war history must be besed is the collection and care of ‘her war records. The time to compile and collect such records is now while the facts, experiences and impres sions of the” stirring times through which we have just passed are fresh in mind and while most of the tangi- ble traces of the myriad activities of the period—the written, printed and pictorial records: produced during the war—are still available. pression has gone out with tizens that the names and ad branch of service, etc,, can from the-adjutant gen- LL See Ben efficient (C-, advised the state ‘historian that ‘they have no deta compiled from ;enne. adjutant general at Washington, D.! which information could be obtained | to aid in this work.

(83 Mail.)—Nationali- zation! This is the great cry of British labor, whose consistent and! continual demand of shorter hours} and increased wages is taxing the ‘strength of the British government to its utmost. Labor leaders declare it is the saly solution of British labor un- rest ase And not only do they demand nationalization of all natural monop- olies, but they demand an equal share of its management. To support their demand for par- ticipation in the management, they point to the position of post-office workers, who ,they declare, are ‘‘mid- die-class and care more for the looks of thelr finger-nails and the white- ness of their cuffs” than they do} about hours and wages.
