Criticism of the increased cost of banquet tickets was explained by the story of the farmer, who, when called upon to answer similar ques- tions propounded by a customer, de- clared that with the dawn of the time when a farmer is expected to know the bontannical name of his products, is compelled to familiarize himself with the zoological names of | the bugs that destroy them and.is further required to study chemical processes by which these pests can determined, “somebody has got to pay for it.”” Judge Chas, E, Winter, the first of the speakers to be introduced, ex- he was not one of those who be- | which was accepted as convincing ev:- |dence to his claim that he was glad Jealousies, the lending of material as- sistance to agricultural‘and industrial propects, coupled with optimistic con- fidence in the future of the state, ‘his city can radiate its influence to every section of the state and occupy a station similar to that of Denver to the State of Colorado. Like sentiments were voiced by M. W. Purcell in discussing the “Begin- ning of the New Order of Things,” which he said, began with the tri- tmph of the American forces at Cha- teau-Thierry, when American ideals were raised to a higher plain. That the people should strive to maintain the new standard set by our soldiers on the battlefields of France by prog- ress in which the soldiers themselves will take an important part on their return, was urged by the speaker. | Good roads, he declared, will be an important factor in Casper’s future growth and prosperity and ine advo- cated the building of highways radiat- ing to every section of the state. C. B. Manbeck of the Standard Oil company of Indiana, ‘who was called here by business the last of the week, was called upon for a few remarks and received an enthusiastic recep- tion. He complimented the gather- ‘ing on the spirit manifested, bearing | witness to the fact that the lethargy which grips some Eastern and Middle Western cities has no place in Cas- per. With the remark that “no banquet would be complete without hearing from Patrick Sullivan,” the latter was also introduced and confined his re- marks to a tribute to the soldiers and the part they are to play in the future of Casper. Perhaps one of the most attractive |features of the banquet was the fact) that speeches and addresses were to the point, the program did not lag in any particular, and thru it all ran a vein of humor which contributed to general appreciation and enjoyment of the affair. a Marvin Bishop, son of Councilman- Members of Local Red Cross Banquet Wednesday Night Members of the local chapter and the workers for the coming Red Cross Membership Drive will dine at the Henning grill tomorrow evening when definite plans will be formulated for the drive. Plates will cost one dollar each and dinner will be served be- tween the hours of six and eight o'clock, a business meeting to follow the dinner. “Universal membership” is the slo- gan adopted by the local workers who will emphasize the demand for money to carry out the plans of the American Red Cross in the devastat- ed countries. The work of caring for! the refugees and repatriates and the} civilian population of Belgium and France must be continued thruout the winter months or thousands will die from the lack of proper nourish- ment and clothing. To this end the Red Cross workers will endeavor to! have every citizen of Natrona county present at the Christmas Roll Call.
