The order is of interest in all Wyoming cities which have trouble in keeping an soe supply of water on hand or in keep- ing their systems on a paying basis. It follows in part: “In the operation of the municipa’ water works system the reer | of the city of Sheridan are confronted with the dual problem of preventing excessive use and wastage of water | and the creation of sufficient earning | capacity to cover’ operation an maintenance and fixed charges. tt 2 Sa is the opinion of the commission that | The Iris theater has contracted to both these problems can best be|show Saturday, Miss Anita Stewart's solved by the ultimate metering of|initial First } onal production, the entire system, and order will is-| “Virtuous Wives,” adapted from the sue directing the authorities to pro-;two million ition book of the same ceed to carry this into effect as rap- title by Owen Johnson. idly as possible. “Virtuous Wives” is described as “The experience of water compa- |2 truthful story of married life in nies country-wide, whether privately Néw York society.
