CHANGE MADE IN WYOMING CO-OP July Draft Calls Necessitate Reor- ganization Effected at a Recent Meeting At the recent meeting of the Wyo. oming Co-operative Oil Co., the di- rectors of the company accepted the} resignation of some of the men who) had charge of the company’s affairs | because of their being called to the colors. Mr. P. W. Brillhart, the civil engineer in charge of\the company’s } affairs in the field, will leave Cas-} per immediately for the Pacific, coast, where he has been notified to take his“place among the directors/ of ship building.

TAYLOR) (United Press Staffe Correspondent) WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY} IN FRANCE, June 22—(By Mail)— Forgetting how to figure in “regular} money” and learning to calculate in “this duggon stuff” is one of the first worries of the American soldier in France. “Regular money” is good old dol- lars and cents, nickels, dimes, and} quarters. “This duggon stuff” is the name applied to French franc usually paper-money, often as low as a single france, or twenty cents, for most) small cities have issued local small change currency. The Americans do not like French paper money They gay it is trash, | and tears, and is hard to count. On the other hand the French are shocked when an American crumples French paper up and shoes it in his pocket the “ y they do back home.” | French money is to be handled in big pocketbooks, and not crumpled. “Look at some real money once, a doughboy told a merchant, and flashed a bright new silver certificate. When he crumpled it up in his fist to show how “real money can be used” the Frenchman almost moat en-| The Americans are paid almost en- tirely in French money and they are} getting used to francs, though they} all agree “a franc’s so small it slips through your fingers like water.” WOMEN TO KILL PAIN FOR ARMY MEN IN FRANCE impatiently for their rigs and tools are now able to go ahead and start operations. eee genes CIGAR GIRLS OF QUAKER CITY IN FRONT RANK [By United Press} PHILADELPHIA, July 16—There is a shortage of unattractive girls in Philadelphia, and the cigar dealers have to take the consequences. Girl cigar clerks were employed so as to release men for war work, but all the girls were fatally attrac- tive. So many men who ought to be at work loafed about the cigar stores, stealing conversations and smiles, that the cigar dealers felt they were doing a great injustice to the country. No unattractive ones could be found to replace them, so men past draft | age have been employed. | MANICURE GIRLS MAY WRITE THE The girls were fired. | |Failures to comply with this sign \will result in a fine or imprisonment in the city jail as policemen will-have | their watchful eyes open and it will | |bea slick féllow who can make an undue noise near the hospitals and get away with it.
