1919 The Legislature passed a joint resolution in favor of national women's suffrage.
Wyoming in Wyoming, of course, could already vote and had that right since 1869, but it was on the march nationally.
Oddly, the Wyoming State Tribune in Cheyenne barely noted it on its front page, where it did at least make front page news. The Casper paper, which of course was publishing from 150 miles away, didn't note it at all that day. In fairness, there was a lot going on, but then in fairness again, this would seem, in retrospect, to be pretty significant news.
As in this school established by the American Red Cross in France for "mutiles", i.e. those mutilated in the war. This was clearly a trade school.

The lasting impact, including the human impact, of the war was being dealt with everywhere on that day.

Some folks were on their way home.
In Paris there was talk of some of the weapons of the new war being abolished.
Oddly, the Casper paper didn't think anything important was going on in the legislature that day, voting wise, but in fairness to it, it was referencing legislation, which a resolution is not. Plenty of other stuff was certainly going on, however.
