Hot water, in this case, is a relative term. You draw your own conclusions, when you learn Snore mtaaes what the suyterintendent did actu- ally do He announced that he would reemploy none of the twenty-two young lady school teachers under his jurisdiction, who had received in the past gchool year attentions from young gentlemen. Since all of them had so received, it placed a ban upon the “whole kit and biln’.” Left twenty-two excellent samples of feminine pulchritude without jobs in the Greybull schools. For that is wher all this occurred. The sound waves of the announcement had _not more then reached the outer edges of the town plat, when the storm broke. That superintendent was figuratively flayed alive. Twenty-two maidens at once furnished a sufficient entertain- ment to hold public attention, but when the ad- mirers of the school teachers, and each one is cred ited with at least five, joined in. compliments to the superintendent, it is said the chorus was worth hearing. Just what is wrong about school. teachers en- couraging the attentions of proper young men, the superintendent does not explain. He should have been proud that his teaching force was so blessed as to command the attention of discriminating young men. It would have vindicated his own judgment as a picker of charm and beauty, as well as brains. If that old boy insists upon carrying into effect the rule he has promulgated we should like to see a group picture of next year’s teachers. We'll wager the scholars would decline to attend school, and all the desirable young men would quit the town.

There is one telephone ,it seems, for every eight inhabitants in the United States, including every man, woman and child. This means that practic- ally every one of us—if we have the not very large price—can have a talk, ear to ear if not face to face, with practically any one of our 110 million fellow-citizens old enough to talk.

He attended the | convention in 1864, was a delegate from his congres sional district in 1868 and has been a delegate to every convention since then.

Figures are usually dry reading matter, but people who have just finished making their income tax returns ought to be interested in the showing that has been made by Senator War- ren, chairman of the appropriations committee of the senate, and Representative Madden, chairman of the appropriations committee of the house. According to the presentation they have made, based upon the records, the total appropriations for the fiscal year 1 are nearly $234,000,000 less <perience. than for the fiscal year 1923. This reduction was accomplished notwithstanding the fact that the 1923 appropriations marked an enormous decreasc over the year 1922, The care with which the executive departments and the budget bureau prepared their estimates | of the amounts needed is evidenced by the fact that when Congress passed the appropriation bills the! net decrease of appropriations as compared with estimates was less than one per cent of the total anjount requested. That is the sort of business man- ugement that give assurance to the people that! the affairs of their government are in the hands! | of competent and conscientious men. | But it is not alone in the reduction of the total! | amount of appropriations that improvement is | seen in the manner of conducting the public busi- ness. For many years it has been the practice of | the executive departments to send in their regular estimates and then after Congress has met and after public attention has been diverted from the estimates, send in supplemental estimates running into the hundreds of millions. Under the budget system, the aggregate of supplemental estimates, submitted to the recent session of Congress was only slightly more than one million dollars. Any business man will agree that it takes exceedingly good management and a high order of busin | aability to make estimates several months in ad- vance which later require a reyision of only one! thirtieth of one per cent. | All this has not been accomplished without hard work. It has required close attention on the part of the heads of the administration bureaus, on the| part of the director of the budget and on the’ part of the appropriations committees of both sen- ate and house. Moreover, it has required faith- ful adherence to the pledge of economy upon which the Congress was elected in 1920, — The Republicans suffered a number of reverses in the Congressional elections of 1922, They have} the satisfaction of knowing, however, that those reverses were not justified by the. record of accom- plishment, Output, Trade and’ Prices 4 ys MEASURE of the industrial, commercial an | id financial situation is the relation between)! | physical output, productive cauacity and the ac-| jtual movement of goods into final consumption.| There is conclusive evidence that physical output as a whole is at or near record rates.

This reduction will mean a saving of over $200 on freight on every car of honey which {s shipped from Wyom- ing for eastern destinations. Honey producers in this section now have the same liberal rate which producers Washington, Idaho, Utah and Colorado have en. Joyed for several years. The Wyoming Beekeepers’ Associa- tion deserves the unstinted support of every geekeeper in tho state, Every beekeeper who ships a car of honey after April 15, 1923, will save enough in freight alone on one car to pay his membership dues in the tion for the rest of his life ‘Tho new rate {s $1.35 to the Atlantic seaboard and all intermediate terrt- tor When the association began its ht for a reduction in rates two ars ago the rate in effect at that ne to the Atlantic seaboard was assoc Seriously Injured BASIN—Filoyd Loman, son of Jay Loman, 14-year-old was brought to jthe Basin hospital with a fractured skull, horse, The boy had gone into tho corral at his home on the Nowood to catch his saddle pony, and coming up suddenly the result of a kick from a she kicked. striking him over the left eye.

The lad is resting easy this time. but the outcome of the ie uncertat Nothing Falls Down BY FRED PATEE. Colorado has twenty million dollars to spend for good roads this year. Whew! Don't that sound good? And Colorado already has’ the reputation throughout the east of having the best roads in the west. That's why they are able to get enough tourists to eaye more than forty millions of new lollars in their state in one year. But how did they get these tourists? They Ydn't get them by eitting still and ting for the tourists to come of ir own initiative, not by a very long ways. Some of the leading business men Charles McAllister Wilcox, general manager of the Daniels & Fisher store, Mr. Lewis of the Lewis Dry Goods company, the Denver Dry Goods com- pany, and other men of that charac- ter got together and organized a spe- c’al clyic association for the promo- tion of a tourists’ bureau. This bu- reau is provided with between $40,000 and $50,000 per year, which under the skillful direction of a most competent manager !n the person of Harry Bur- hans.is spending in not only bringing the tourist to Denver and Colorado, but in looking after him after he arrives. It {s hard for a tourist to get through Colorado without being checked up at some point and having his finger prints made. At least he {s obliged to turn {n his expense account {n much the same way that we do ft at our clty tourist camp, so that a careful check may be had as to how much money is left in the state by tourists. This careful check !s made simply as a business proposition so that the pro- motors may know whether it pays to keep up the work or not, And does it pay? Write to one of the above men- tioned stores and ask them. ‘They will tell you that it {s the best money they have ever spent for advertising. It we in Wyoming had a cement highway from Cheyenne to the Yellow: stone park we would get at least one- half of that forty million dol'ars which Is now being spent in Colorado. There !s absolutely no question about {t. We have a lot of tourists right now who come to Casper as tourists without any thought of staying here, but who after looking around and seeing what a wonderful little city Caspor realy is, decide to settle down and become Casperites. One of these tourists is J. J. Thomas owner of the Liberty Garage. Mr. Thomas lived !n Denver, think of that, talk about carrying coals to Newcastle. Lived in Denver for more than forty years. before Mr, Tabor built that wonderful opera house. He saw Denver grow from a Uttle bit of a town where a man could not buy a fresh vegetable of any kind for love or money, to the wonderful city of more than half a million people that {t now fs, and then turns tourist himself and settles in Casper When Mr, Thomas left Denver’ he started for Idaho by way of the Yel- ‘owstone park, and incidentally passed through Casper, only he did not pass through, for when he arrived in Cas- per ho was impressed with the won- derful possibilities of the place and told one of our prominent citizens that Casper would be a great city some day. Before he left Denver he had sold out his business and as he ex: pressed it had all of h's world!y goods in his pocket, so he bought some lots in Casper and bullt the Liberty Gar- age, and now he ts going to build an- other one twico as large. Mr. ‘Thomas says that Denver “has gone through half a dozen fits of despondency at different times, but that they were all overcome by the grit and determina- tion of the men who believed in her future. He says we have that spirit here In Casper. He was spending some time in another city once since he came here, and he overheard a number of men talking about Casper, one of them sald “Casper never lets wi anything fali down.” That's the spirit that makes a city, He says build that cement highway and Casper will be- come just as big and just as important as Denver is today. We have every- thing to make a great city but that highway In Colorado Mr. Thomas has seen sugar beets hauled out of the field by four horse teams, and after they were.on the cement he has seen two of the big loads, each of which took four horses or mu'es to pull out of the field, hooked tgether and hauled to town with one team of horses. Not only would the highway bring the tourist with his easy money to spend, but it would encourage agriculture, and develop farms and irrigation more than any other thing that Wyo- ming could do. So let's build !t. Accident to Wheatland Sheep WHEATLAND—Two carloads of fat mutton, one of them the prop- erty of D. M. Southworth, were rulned for consumption when a fast passenger train collided with them head on, while they were standing on the main track in the Chicago yards. The accident occurred when | switch engine was shunting stock cars, and ran the two cars on tho main line to get them out of the road for a few minutes. Only 52 sheep were left alive out of the 480 head in the two cars. The only injury suffered on the passenger train was a broken leg sustained by the engineer. ee age Moving to Maverick very anxious to see a pipe line from the Maverick field, and is ready to co-operate financially or otherwise to bring about the building of & pipe line as soon as possible.

As soon ag the river breaks up and the muddy water comes, a full test of the plant will be made and the mayor and council believe that the new installa- tion will furnish an abundance of clear water for all purposes. —_—————— Another Wyoming Crop MEETEETSE—It is estimated tinot 20 carloads of dressed turkeys will be shipped out of Big Horn Basin in 1928.
