However, it will not be absorbed by the soil and as it drains off will naturally cause streams to swell.” Mr, Sherier said that outsidr: of the flopded areas of the state the rain- fall had not dameged crops, but any more would not be desirable.

Mead, of Denver, who was the. principal speaker at the noon luncheon. “Public opinion is nearly always right,” he said, “not in the narrow little prejudices of class, reitgion, or politics, but in the big fundamental things that count. x “Creed distinction is not as evident as it was before the war. It took that catastrophe however, to wake us up and it was then that selfish lines were obliterated in the’ fate of the great ideal and necessity for accom: plishment that loomed before us. “People are thinking more about ithe fundamental things now which bring us together in a spirit of unifications and helpfulness. A rreat purpose and great passion fused us together dt ing the war. lt is that spirit which ‘should continue to fuse the best terests of the smallest community for the, best interests of all, a “Efficiency” is the greatest charac: teristic of the American people. We should call on our innate power of accomplishment to fill with high ideals the structure of our community, 30 that it will be a better.place in whic! to live. Aw “Your answer ‘will decide Casper’ future, It is the big fundamental things and the accomplishment . of them that count. The world dsks for the wisest and best things no matter how they are arrived at and it ds the adeptation shown or the sincerity exhibited that distinguishes the great from the failure.”” Bishop Mead in stirring. closing re- marks told his hearers who taxed the Henning diningroom to capacity, that he was glad to have had an oppor- tunity to meet with them again.
