GEORGE WASHINGTON NATIONAL
HIGHWAY IS SECURED OY ACTIVITY
OF CODY CLUB PRESIDENT HOLM’S
Back of every enterprise is a man
who sees visions and dreams dreams.
The George Washington Transcon
tinental highway was planned to run
from Savannah, Georgia, to Seattle,
Washington via. the Black Hills and
Miles City, leaving Cody out of the
route entirely.
By mere chance the publicity
reached Gus Holm's who at once got
in touch with the organization which
is associated with him in promoting
the Black and Yellow trail and finally
was able to get Mr. Duffy of Buffalo
BUFFALO COMMERCIAL CLUB,
Buffalo, Wyoming.
April 28th, 1916.
Dear Mr. Holm's:
I have just received a letter from Mr. Duffy in which he has out
lined the results of the meeting at Omaha on the 24th.
It seems that there was no intention on the part of those promoting
this proposed highway of extending an invitation to Buffalo to attend this
meeting, or be represented there. Mr. Duffy states that through his
credentials from Cody only was he able to secure a seat in this convention,
and that there was no other Wyoming delegate present. However, he
writes that he was able to Becure representation for Buffalo in connection
with his representing Cody, and that the George Washington Transconti
nental Highway will pass through Buffalo and Cody.
The Nebraska people had a scheme to keep the line entirely out
of the Dakota region and put it into the Miles City territory, but that was
unsuccessful and the road will follow the Black and Yellow trail practically
the same as it was originally mapped out.
This highway was organized and incorporated in the sum of
?5,000.00. Vice presidents were elected representing each state traversed
ly’ t he highway. Mr. Duffy was elected vice president for Wyoming.
It is now necessary for the towns of Cody, Buffalo, Gillette and
Sundance to get together and hold a meeting at which ways and means
must be decided upon to pot the highway in good condition so that it will
be acceptable to the Executive Board when they make their initial trip over
the route some time in July. Just as soon as Mr. Duffy returns from the
east where he went on business, which will be about the first of the month,
we will write you further in regard to the matter.
\ Yours very truly,
JOHN C. FLINT
President.
Wyoming to Play a Part
in the National Program
Industrial Preparedness
During the past year, under the
influence of the engineering aspects
of the present world war and at the
suggestion of prominent statesmen
of the country regardless of political
alliance, a movement surrounding the
governmental departments of the ar
my and navy has resulted in the for
mation of an advisory body entitled:
'The Naval Consulting Board of the
United States,” of which Thomas A.
Edison is the chairman. This body
is composed of the most eminent en
gineers of the country and among its
services already performed it has for
mulated and presented to the govern
mi it an elaborate scheme of organ
i.iing into a systematic fairic all the
industries and natural resources of
the- country need in lime of defensive
war. This scheme is known as
•The Organization tor Industrial
I'm paredness.”

to attend the meting at Omaha last
month.
He furnished the gentleman with
the necessary credentials to represent
Wyoming and as a result of his ac
tivity the road leaves the Black Hills
and takes up the route of the Black
and Yellow trail and goes thru the
Yellowstone park via. Cody.
The story is best told in a letter
from John C. Flint, president of the
Buffalo Commercial club addressed
to Mr. Holm’*-
In carrying out this proposal a let
ter was sent by President Woodrow
Wilson to the president of the Amer
ican enginering societies, asking that
they name a board of directors in
each state.
Complying with this request of the
president, the engineering societies
which represent thirty thousand
members, named the following as the
Wyoming board of directors for in
dustrial preparedness and associate
members of the naval consulting
t-oard of the United States:
Chairman, P. N . Nunn, Casper;
secretary, N. D. Waltman, Casper;
treasurer, P.. B. Moudy, Laramie;
pres manager, Edward Gillette, Sher
idan; field manager, E. G. Iloefer,
Laramie.
F. ;• .! * frst time in the history of
tiii ■ c cn.ineers have been
| c-d! j■: a ! to its aid. Their
NORTHERN WYOMING HERALD
services are needed by the govern
ment in the performance of a most
important patriotic .work. They
have been asked to aid in the laying
of the foundation of our structure
for. national defense. Upon every
one of them there rests a personal
responsibility. The country needs
their services, the president has ask
ed for it, and the governing bodies
of the engineering societies have con
fidently pledged it.
Brief outline of plan for invento
ry of industrial resources available
for the support of the army and na
vy of the United States:
The organization under each state
board of a corps of field aids selected
from the combined membership of
the five technical societies within
that state.
The issuance by the naval consult
ing board to each state board of com
plete information as to the work in
hand, the objects to be attained, sug
gested methods of procedure, lists of
members within the state of the five
technical societies and all available
data as to the resources of the state.
Examination by the state board
of their teritory with reference to
the number and geographical distri
bution of industries with relation to
the field aids available for the in
ventory.
Issuance by the state boards to
the field aides of instructions and
blank forms as supplied by the nav
al consulting board.
Examination and checking by the
state boards of all completed field
reports. Following up men to see
that reports are sent in properly.
Checking reports and supplying any
data lacking before sending them to
consulting board.
The continuance of the organiza
tion thus formed in order to insure
to the government the backing of the
full industrial strength of the coun
try and to secure for the largest
practical number of industrial con
cerns such an fflnount of government
business as will keep them in touch
with the requirements of the army
and navy.
In order to obtain the necessary co
operation of manufacturers and the
public in general, there will be re
leased in due season for country
wide distribution a statement giving
an outline of the entire movement..

Mr. Goodfellow had dined out six
nights in succession. On the sev

of the tabic, said: “Children, we

whom you ha’’ - all heard, even if
you do not personally know him. He
is a man who has a reputation for
convivialty and cheer in every club

FINISHES HIGH SCHOOL
Harold Larson, at one time a stu
dent in the Cody schools and employ
ed as a deliveryman for the Newton
Company, was graduated from the
high school of Wausa, Nebraska, yes

Cody by a number of his friends.
Chancellor Avery of the University
of Nebraska made the commencement
address.
PROPOSE NEW GATEWAY
Red Lodge is the latest aspirant for
a gateway into Yellowstone park.
Their route will lead up Rock creek
canyon, said to be very picturesque
and altogether interesting, and con
necting with the Sheridan trail on the
top of Beartooth mountain which runs
to Cooke City. The entire distance
would have to be traveled by a pack
train as an automobile would be out
of the question. This handicap alone
will prevent a great amount of busi
ness going the Red Lodge way with
the keen competition the scenic road
Cody has to offer and the connecting
good roads into Billings
The time will likely copie when
the forest service will open the
Red Lodge trail with an automobile
highway which would give a well pat
ronized circuit which would enable
autoists to enter one way and come
out the other.

THE HORSE’S AGE
If you want to know his age.
His jaws you’ll find a printed page.
The lower front teeth brought in
view.
Their marks will give a truthful cue.
Before the colt is two weeks foaled
Two' milk-white teeth the gums un
fold;
Right in the center they appear,
And“nippers”we shall call them here.
At two months old, or nearly so,
One more on either side will grow,
We shall “middle” name this pair,
As “corners” come outside of there.
Twelve teeth has colty at eight
months past.
Black “marks” upon their crowns
are cast.
Two black “marks” in crowns will
disappear
From baby’s“nippers”at justoneyear.
At two, his milk-white“nippers”shed;
At three, the“middle”pair have fled;
When four years old, ute“corners”go;
At five, a full new set he’ll show.
Twelve strong new teeth, as hard as
flint,
Bark oval facesand of ysllowishtint
At six, the upper “corners” hooked
will be,
And “marks” in “nippers”hard to see.
While at seven, they will fall,
And”middleSaarka will show but pale

At eight years, even these have flown
And “corners” mark is quite alone.
But nine obliterates these too;
Thus all of them have passed from
view
At ten, the upper corners start a
groove
And oval faces triangular prove.
So thus each year till twenty-one,
The groove doth lengthen as begun;
Stiff old limbs refuse to play,
And hair once colored turns to grey.

Glacier National Park This Summer Will
Delight Thousands
Now is the time to plan a vacation tour. You will want such a
complete change of environment as will drive out every thought of work,
and free your system from the torpor of monotony. Glacier Park will
give you such a deep, high and wide picture of nature’s magnificence as to
calm your mind, worn with petty worries.
Glacier is the indescribable climax of the grandeur of the Rockies.
Here you penetrate into localities of hidden mountain lakes and into the
depth of forests; you reach mysterious sources of cascades and torrents
tumbling from melting glaciers. You zig-zag over mountain passes
along government trails that yield to the beholder such glorious per
spectives of weird topography in countless hues—that word painting or
any kind of a painting seems cheap and futile.
This is, too, a delightful vacation land. Here are resources for every
tourist. “Good management and good nature”—is the Law of the Park.
PLet me send you Glacier Park publications; they will
make to you a strong appeal to renew your energies
