ee SrLECTIES PRUGRMAT THR MLE DULY men, according to the population of the state, remember that Genera! Pershing is a step.son of Wyoming, that his service star fiies in Wyom- ing state, and that he knows where to get fighting men, thorobred fight- ers that never lay down. As I can’t go myself, I will expect each of you to get me a Hun.” Two stalwart, bronzed giants that would make the most courage- ous Hun tremble, took the flags and it was generally understood that they would get them to Berlin before peace was declared. The Fremont bunch were already well supplied with flags and they,too, were well aware that they were expected to put them in the “castle on the Rhine.” Before introducing Governor B. B. Brooks, who was the next speaker, the Rey. J. J. Giblin said that, like Mr. Shipp, he wanted a Hun, “but I want the whole Pottsdam bunch, with the accent on the last syllable of that word.” (That wasn’t bad for a Methodist minister, was it?) Goy. Brooks, in his cheery, deter- mined manner,, welcomed the Fre- mont boys in Casper. ‘My blood- thirsty friends here, the parson and} the poet, remind me of a letter I heard that a colored lady down in Alabama received from her warrior husband who was fighting in the! front line trenches in France,” said} the governor. “The letter « stated! with the colored man’s usual exag_/ geration, ‘I am shootin’ a Hun every! minute, and every time I step I| wade in blood up to my knees.’ | “The only victories the Germans | have won have been thru propaganda | and by intimidating people thru ma-| licious lies distributed behind the| lines and among even the soldiers. This was done in Russia with the re- sult that disorder and chaos has reigned in that country until the people do not know on which side they are fighting. Beware of this, even in the American army. Tales of discomforts and hardships at the camps are largely started thru the German agents. Do not repeat or spread them. “This is not a poor man’s war, nor a rich man’s war. Sons of million-} aires, yes, even the millionaires them- selves, march beside the immigrant lad, and their faces both have the same determined ‘mean~ business’ look. The other day while watching a parade in Fort Worth, Tex., where thousands of American soldiers ready to leave in a short time for France, strode past, a man turned to me and said, ‘You can’t beat them anywhere with anything.’ “They can’t be beat, even’ in’ dig-| ging. The other day a young man wrote to his mother, ‘I never knew T could dig so fast until, while mak- ing a trench, I overtook a badger, and I had to get around ahead of him to finish my ditch.’ Those of} you who know a badger’s digging propensities know how fast this fel_ low was going. “This war is not being fought by the United States to gain acreage, or to acquire wealth or colonies. It is being fought that all men may have equal right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, the grand- est principles that ever actuated any nation to enter war. America will back up her allies with men, money and munitions, and she will never cease until a final great victory is achieved. There is but one énd to it all; Germany must accept the terms laid down by the President of the United States and no matter how badly she is licked she must accept these terms, Germany is going to be defeated. You lads and the mil- lions of others will see to that. “Our airplane divisions haven’t got started yet, but when they do get to fighting right you will read in your Associated Press reports that} the U. S. planes have brot down so| many Hun planes, and the ratio of —— ee _ Ladies’ tailoring, latest fashions. L. C. Moore, Tailor, 163 So.

If Germany then digs her- |self in, American will fly over her lines, cut off her source of supplies, army can’t be fed, and Germany will be forced to give in. “While Germany fights under the waves, sinking transports carrying women, children and wounded sol- diers, fighting under cover where only the devil can see and assist, America will fight in the sky in the |sight of God and man, and they will | fight well and fearlessly for they know that God and the Right are with them. You boys, too, know that God and Wyoming are with you come that Wyoming ever gave to anyone.” entertainment provided for the Fre_ mont boys, speaking in their behalf.) The boys left for the station, shout- ing joyfully for the Mothers’ League and Casper. Each one was given cigars, thru the generosity of i Richard Shipp, while the Mothers’ League supplied each of those who had not already received comfort} kits with the handy little kits. 2 Half of Casper accompanied the boys to the Burlington station where; the last farewells were said. The} boys were the recipients of many} gifts and most of them carried away | boxes and bundles, of good things.| The: band played at intervals, the| National anthem floating away with) the boys as the special train pulled) out at 9:45. oa Miss Helen Petersdorff of Lander who has been spending several days with her sister, Miss Petersdorff, su- perintendent of the Wyoming Gen-! eral hospital, left last night for Den- ver to spend part of her vacation. omo G, H.
