Leaves build up the ferti..ty of the soil and should be allowed to decompose instead ‘of burning them. They belong to mother earth and should be allowed to remain where they fall. re pe ee TWO MORE DAYS Houx has betrayed the confidence trusting friends and has given out pr publication private correspond- nce. o Houx has double-crossed noble dies and failed utterly in making pod his promises to them, These things are quite jn keeping ith his “business” training!

And it might be said further that if all the kids in Natrona county could vote, there would be absolutely no doubt about Pat’s election by an overwhelming majority. s Coming here in the early days, Pat Royce has spent prac- tically his whole life in Natrona county. For many years he was town marshal in the early days, and as the town became more populous and took on city airs, Pat was promoted’ to the high-sounding title of “chief of police,” which position he held until the new administration came into power and an outsider was given the job at about double Pat’s salary. In the early days, and even in later years, while Pat Royce held down the job of marshal, and was entrusted with the duties of preserving peace, he not only performed his duties well, but also spent much of his time’and money in ¢haritable work, and during the hard winters no poor family ever went 5| without coal and food if Pat knew anything about it. At the outbreak of the Mexican trouble, when General Pershing marched into the interior of Mexico with the Ameri- can forces to get “Villa dead or alive,’ Pat Royce resigned his position and entered the United States service as an expert in pack trains, and did not return to Casper until after the Mexican embroligo had been abated. When America entered the great world war, he also made several attempts to enlist in the United States service, but each time was turned down on account of his age and failure to} meet physical requirements. If Pat Royce is elected to the office of sheriff, the people} are assured an efficient and faithful public official, and a man whose long experience in police affairs will be a valuable asset in the adminisration of the affairs of the office to which he aspires. a t & George E. Lilly, the Republican candidate for Assessor of Natrona County, has been a resident of Casper for twenty-eight |years, and has been a property owner and taxpayer since attaining his majority. During the past year he has been em- ployed in the Assessor's office, and the experience gained while serving in that office has given him a knowledge of real estate values, and an insight that will be of inestimable value if the people choose him as their next County Assessor, 7 By reason of his long residence in Casper, and his expe- rience in the Assessor’s office, Mr. Lilly has personal knowledge of practically every piece of property, both improved and un- improved, in Natrona County, and the people can make no | mistake in electing him to this office.
