SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 22,1919. FRESH ORNE 10 FINBINGE ANNUAL Treasury Running Low with Annual Incomplete; Other News of Interest from Natrona County High School: * _——— (Contributed. ) Friday evening at'a meeting of the senior class and annual staff, it was decided that a vigorous campaign should be made next week to replen- ish the funds to be used for the an- nual At present there is not’ encugh money to warrant its publication, and the campaign will be a canvass of both residence and bu: istricts for advance subscriptions and for ad: vertisements The seniors will make this canvass, and every one should buy an annue! Every busin will find that it. will pay him to an advertisement to the business man ager when she calls to ask lim fo: it The coming= issue will be more than worth its price, and it is hoped that the people of Casper will respond generously and do their bit. The members of the freshman Eng- lish classes under the supervision of Miss Littel have organzied a ‘Better English Club,” the purpose of which is to discourage the use of slang and poor English among the high school students. The idea of the club is very original and the members are enthusiastic to the point of setting the example for the higher classmen in using ggod English. A novel fea- ture of the club is a series of posters made by the members which illustrate the aim of the club. These are placed in a conspicuous place in the halls and new ones appear every day. Among the expressions which the freshmen mean to eliminate, the most common are “I ain’t” and. “I haven’t got none.” Interest has been created among the upper classmen and _per- haps the membership will be extend- ed so as to include them also. Miss Dix, high school instructor in sciences, who was last week called to Jefferson City, Mo., by the death of | her father, has returned and will again take charge of her classes. The “With the Colors club” has postponed their colonial ball on ac- count of the illness of their cap- tain, Miss Helena Wilson. The club plans to give the party at a later date, April 25, being now decided upon. The grade cards which were to be distributed last Wednesday, will be given“out on Tuesday of next week. The first semester of the term ended on Feb. 14, when the examinations for half-year’ subjects took <place. Many new classes were formed and the work of the second semester is well started. | DVING MESSAGE ERASED FROM SHAM! ANDY AF AN [5 FOUND.AT RIVER RIVERTON, Wyo., Feb. 22.—His last message erased by the sun and wind, the body of an unknown man was found near the road leading from Riverton to the Sand Draw oil field. No indications of violence and it is, believed that the man met death from exposure about a month ago. | Altho the body was discolored when found it was that of a man about 35 years of age, roughly dressed and carried no marks of identification. A driller of the Carter Oil company pronounced him to be one of two men driven away from the Carter camp in the Sand Draw field when it was learned they were I. W. W. With the finding of the body truck drivers recalled having seen words written in the snow near where he was found but no one ever stopped to read the message and its signifi- cance was not brot to light uptil it had, been erased by the elements. BUILDING AND'LOAN TO HOLD MEETING MONDA A regular meeting of the Building and: Loan Association will be held in the. court room of the courthouse Monday night at which time much business will be transacted. Owing. to the fact that the first series of stock will probably mature this year great interest has been manifested in the building and loan organization. MISSOU HINES RETURNS FROM . RANGER FIELD.
