Last spring St. Ambrose congregation, Louis Burgess, Mr. Thurber Sr., Mr. Nimitz and Charles Switzer made fine con tributions toward our more beautiful village by sinking rocks, grading, sowing grass seed etc It is by this spirit of community improvement ex pressing itself in action that gives us all a better town in which t.o live. Let the good work continue and may more of us follow their good example. W. E. SWITZER WRITES OF WESTERN TRIP. Earle S. Holman of Antigo and W. E. Switztr of this village have com pleted a trip to Yellowstone Park, Den ver and other cities. They weut to the park via the Northern Pacific from Minneapolis to Gardiner, the northern entrance. One night stops were made at Mammoth, Old Faithful and Yellow stone Lake camps, two days being passed at Sanyon Camp. They left the park through the eastern entrance, riding about ninety miles by automobile to Cody. This ride was one of the most enjoyable features of the trip, the road leading through Sylvan Pass at an alt itude of 8,600 feet muking a rapid des cent into the Shoshone Valley, border ed on each side by the Absaroka moun tain which yresent rock formation of most fantastic form. The luncheon stop was made at Tahaska lodge, formerly Buffalo Bill’s hunting lodge, about half way to Cody, which was reached in time for supper. After riding for some time along Shoshone Lake’ created by Shoshone irrigation dam, the road pass ing through several short tunnels, the tourist suddenly emerges at the head of the dam which is 300 feet high. Be low the dam, extends for several miles the canyon of the Shoshone river. The ride through this is rich in thrills. The road is on a comparatively narrow led ge and although excellent is so narrow in places that automobiles must wait turns to pass. The river is far below and on the other side are steep cliffs that in places overhang and are pierced bp tunnels. A short distance out of Cody the highway enters open country. Cody is the home town of Buffalo Bill, containing his old home and the Irma hotel, named for his only daught er, who has followed her father in deate. The hotel contains many fine pictures showing episodes in the life of Buffalo Bill, and also various memen toes of curious interest. From Cody the trip was to Denver over the Burlington line, a ride of a bout twenty-four hours. Much was seen of the Wyoming oil fields. Casper has large refineries and is said to ship out seven or eight trainloads of oil daily. Oil burning locomotives are used on the Burlington through this section, After reaching Denver an automobile ride was taken to Garden of the Gods, Manitou, Cave of the Winds, Pike’s Peak, and Colorado Springs, this trip of about 200 miles being made in one day. A fine toll road wide enough for two cars to pass and with no grades exceeding fifteen to twenty per cent leads to the top of Pike’s Peak. It is eighteen miles long and reaches an alt itude of over 14,000 feet. Mr gvvitzer and Mr. Holman return ed to Chicago via Omaha, where a day was spent. Mr. Switzer went on to Lansing, Mieh., to visit relatives and Mr. Holman to Madison for a brief vis it before returning to Antigo.
