The percentage of this floatin ment of discharged soldier: small, less than the percen' civilian life. The instance reported to the Army and Navy club was that at least a half dozen of these pseudo soldiers go to the Burlingto: in the morning and mingle with the arriving sold and the Mothers’ league innocently supplies them with food and smokes and welcomes them time after time to Casper. rrangements have been made however to eliminate this form of petty graft and members of the Army and Navy club in future will have charge of the credentials of returning soldiers. A warm recep- tion will be handed the first grafter who_is caught imposing upor the wonderful work that is being done by the Mother’s league in Casper. a LETTERS ARE TWO GENTS AND POSTCARDS FOR ONE, OLD RATES IN EFFECT The high cost of correspondence took a slight tumble lest night at midnight when the old pre-war time rates of postage went back into ef- fect throughout the United States. All mail dropped in boxes last night went at the war rate of 3 cents per jetter and 2 cents for post card and papers. But starting today postcards may be sent at the former rate of ® cent apiece and letters will be back at the old standard of 2 cents. The cent rate applies to papers sent through mail as before the war rates | went into effect November, 1917. Three-cent stamps will still be sold but they will not be used except for parcels and mail requiring more than the customary 2-cent stamp. Stamp- ed 2-cent postcards and stamped 3- cent envelopes and similar postal ar- ticles in use before the change to- day will be redeemed at the post office for one month if undamaged or unused. BAGGAGE CHECKING IS AGAIN DISCUSSED AND ACTION DEFERRED HERE The old question of better check- ing of baggage in the city of Casper came up again at the meeting of the city council last night but the pro- posed ordinance was referred to the judiciary committee and no action taken. This ordinance has come up before the city council several times before and it is understood that in- structions were given for its revis- ion by the city attorney but the coun- cil felt that no ection should be taken last night. The result was that the city still remains without a law which insures the safe checking of bag- gage. The object of the proposed ordin- ance, as one attorney said last night, is to give complete check on the bag- gage from the time it leaves the owner until it reaches the railroad company. This is done by the issu- ing of duplicate checks to the owner of the baggage and to the railroad company. YELLOWSTONE PARK TO BE PHOTOGRAPHED FROM AIRPLANE FOR MOVIES BILLINGS, Mont., July 1.—R. W.
