m | [5 COMMANDER OF LEGIONNAIRES Election of Officers Monday Night rey Sa pas a arg in Close Contest _ ‘for Chief Peter Nice was. elected commander of, the Casper post of the American Legion at the election held last night in the Army and Navy club rooms. Mr. Nice won the office by one vote, A. C! Porter taking second place by a@ vote of 32 ‘to 31. Mr. Porter will be vice-commander of the post.and both men will hold office until December 31, this year. So close was the election that on first ballot, the fvote was tied between Mr, Nice and Mr. Porter. Dan MeCar- thy, altho in thé race for post com- mander, was practically eliminated be- fore the election started thru a talk by one of the opposing nominee backers. Fred Dralle regularly nominated for the office of post commander was switched to run for post secretary at the last moment and was elected secre- tary by a large majority. It was ex- plained by E. C. Calhoun that the other candidates did not have time to han- die Ithe duties of the office. Harry Mills, present treasurer, was unanimously elected treasurer to hold r] office until the régular time of other officers—December 31. A.vote of thanks was extended to Cc. P. Plummer, retiring post comman- der, and Harry Fisher, retiring secre-|, tary of the Casper post. Mr. Fisher | retired from the office here because he ,felt that his duties as state secretary required so much of his time. Mr. Fisher still remains as state secretary of the legion in Wyoming. A. committee to be elected by Dr. G.™M. Anderson, as chairman, was voted upon unanimously to draw up resolu- tions to be sent to the congressmen ad- vocating the two bills in congress, at present which give four sorts of com, pensation for ex-service persons. Mr. Calhoun was voted to be contin- ued as field secretary of the George Vroman post-No. 3 -to secure more members for the local post which now bas only about 320 members out of a possible membership of some 1,300, His salary increased, altho Treasurer Mills suggested that there first. should -be fgund some means of paying the sal- ary and that the present dues would not start to pay for it. It was voted to appoint a chaplain of the local post for the present year. rs ait eS Ses as ‘CONSTRUCTION STARTED ‘ON. THREE.

Mr. Skunk took up his abode under the little schoolhouse about Thanks- siving day, and managed to behave himself fairly decently for quite a spell. He apparently enjoyed the company of the kids, who strictly obeyed the mandate of the teacher, Miss Lottie Bragg, not to “stir him up” so long as he minded his own business, and he made his trips back and forth to the Elkhorn creek in apparent peace and security. Everything went well for a time, the kids, the teacher and the skunk respecting the terms of an enforced armistice and operated happily under @ sort of Leagueof Nations arrange- ment, until an outsider in the person of a large-sized tom cat butted in to disarrange the tranquility of an oth- erwise peaceful existence. Mr. Thomas Cat resented the pres- ence of his odoriferous cousin under the schoolhouse, and laid plans to re- sent a ruthless invasion of his do- main.

In the time the skunk holds the fort the teacher and kids are all praying for one of those good old Wyoming winds which would waft the fragrance of the little animal to- tains. ward the moi FIRST 1SSUE ‘WYOMING CLUBWOMAN’ PUBLISHED BY FEDERATION” CHIEF The Wyoming Clubwoman, an at- tractive little eight page paper devoted to the interests of the Federated clubs of the state makes its first appearance this month. The paper is edited by Mrs. Lin I. Noble of Thermopolis, the president of the state federation, with the assistance of tha members of the executive board.
