"Therefore, the remaining unentered lands amounting to approximately 1,250.000 acres, will be sold as per the above pro vision during the month of August this year. There la a very great demand for pasture lands and tha private ownership of theae pasture lands will greatly increase the value of the Irrigated lands In the Ira mediate vicinity. The sale of Indian lands will mean very much to the town of Ther- mopolls, Wyo., and tha business men of that locality are looking forward to an influx of land buyers during the present summer, aa the large acreage of this tract of land surrounds the town pf Thermopo lis.1' Operations Start on Municipal Rock Pile Eight Prisoner!

Double the number of graduates will be permitted to compete for places on the commencement program of the High school thia spring. The graduating exercises will be held In the Brandels theatre butdlng on June 14. Keener competition for places has been made possible by a new scheme of deter mining representatives, which haa been ap proved by William M. Davidson, superin tendent of schools. The new plan will be given Its first trial this spring. Heretofore, only those who had eight "As" in English were permitted to com pete for places. No matter what a stu dent's standing was In other branches, he was eliminated from the preliminary com petition unleaa he could show eight high grades. So much confusion resulted that Super intendent Davidson decided to revise the plan. Now to be eligible for graduation a stu dent must possess thirty-two credit marks. Of theae, eight must be A's in any or all branches, backed up with at least five Hi to entitle him to a chance for a place on the program. Under this schema, theae will be written and submitted to a sifting committee. The committee will go over the com positions and select the number on the basis of excellence of composition and de livery. "The new scheme will open up the com petition." said Mr. Davidson Saturday morning. "Heretofore, places on the pro gram have boan determined solely by a student's proficiency in English. That was all wrong. "So to give every body a chance, a gen eral basis waa determined upoa and worked out. Under thla scheme, about forty will be eligible for places on the program. In. stead of twenty as under the old system."
