” FRIDAY, APRIL 11, 1924. LABOR CONDITIONS 1N MOUNTAIN REGION TO IMPROVE #5 GOOD WEATHER SEASON ADVANCES F Unfayorable weather during the, last month temporarily retarded the starting of very extensive programs of general construction but with the advent of good weather increased activity will be noticeable in oil fields, agriculture, building and rail- way operations, according to the monthly labor summary tssued from the Denver office of the department of labor. This summary fajls to take mention of a major activity in Casper—the beginning of work on a $250,000 addition to shops and equip- menteof the Union Tank Line com- pany here, although less impertant developments of other sections are recorded. Labor of all classes is sufficient to meet immediate future demands it is said, Extensive municipal improve- ment programs have been author- ized in many cities. A railway com- pany will immediately commence re- laying approximately 135 miles of new steel on its Wyoming division. Railway-shop employment «is now normal. Expansions in the oll fields are Indicated and it ts estimated 260 ofl wells will be drilled in the Salt Creek field this season, at which point the forces at a large new elec- tric plant have been increased over 100 during the past 30 days, and the numbers employed will be further in- creased in the near future. Shed lambing, to start about April 15, and range lambing, about May 1,\ will afford employment to large numbers of common laborers.

The ‘largest building program in history of city will soon be started. All industrial concerns, including the large oll re- finerles, are operating steadily. Calls for ranch hands have com- menced, and the lambing season to start in early April will afford tem- porary employment to large num- bers of men. Oil-field activities near- by will soon demand increased num- ber of workers. While there will be extensive programs of building and general construction and heavy de- mands for agriculture and oil-field labor, there are at present sufficient workers of all classes to fill the im mediate future demands. “ROCK SPRINGS—The basic in- dustry of importance here—coal mining showed a still further de- crease in production and employ- ment of miners during the past month. A considerable number of the released miners will have op- portunity for immediate employment in agriculture, in the oll fields, and on railway construction. Very little building activity apparent.” —— Indian Braves Are Armed For Pajama Dance LANDER, Wyo., April ©11— ‘When the Arapahoes stage their next wolf dance no one will be sur- prised to see them gyrating around in highly beaded silk pajamas of brilliant colors. When the tribe under the direc- tion of E. J. Farlow, mayor of Lander, arrived in New York City after having been abroad seven monthe Gotham's biggest stores were visited. In one of them the main attraction was the pajama department. It is sald that sev- eral warriors laid in a supply of startlingly tinted, silken night garments. Of course an Indian has no use for red, green or yellow silk pa- Jamas at night. He wants to show them off in broad daylight. For that reason they will undoubtedly be worn in public when a wild west celebration {s put_on. right. itself, oO’ per-acre. few choice Meadowland Acres OISTURE—There jis a plenty, direct from the Platte river.

There ‘s a certain truth in the claim of the American woolens tailors that the French can neither make ‘em or wear ‘em, As a result of this policy, the French designers are showing “taflleurs” and three- plece costumes which are about as far removed from the English and American conception of what a suit should be as is possible. In general the French makers have chosen those costumes which to all intents and purposes are dresses rather than suits. The French makers however have successfully adopted some charming knitted fabrics for the simpler dresses. In some in- stances, these fabrics are hand em- broidered in_original and striking designs. The presence of a certain number of Russian former nobles in and about,some of the newer restaurants on the outskirts of the “roaring forties” has aided the vogue of the black gown accompanted by a scarf, square or shawl of brilllant and barbaric coloring, Proper adjuncts for such costumes include an un- covered car and a dead white facial make up. Those to whom Russian menus and hard luck stories do not appeal however, are unkind enough to say that the Russian restaurant nobility in New York may be rough- ly divided into two classes; those who wash. dishes and those who don't wash. The spring furs are notable for the effectiveness with whick black and white are combined. Ermine is set off by a variety of other darker beautiful brown shade bids fair to be extremely popular. Brown astrakhan is being freely w as trimming, as is a new fur déveloped in Paris and known as Renardeau.
