America as a whole she describes as a nation of enthusiasts. “So much, then, for the drab monotony of life which makes impossible in America the realization of a true art and literature. So much for the inhibitous internal and repression external which sit on the lid of the creative impulses. So much for those shackles on the joy of living which were clamped on by the passengers of the Mayflower and are constantly be- ing riveted anew, for the latest time presumably by Volstead. It is not, after all, a nation devoted to money-grinding but to wide-flung and infectious en- thusiasms. “The truth is virtually admitted by the very people who find life in America so inimical to the rise of great art. It is a favorite argument that the artist is coerced or intimidated by the national passion for witch-hunting. But, after all, what is witch-hunting but a vast enthusiasm, a capacity for extraordinary emotion, misdirected perhaps, but consituting, the raw material of artistic creation? There would be rea} reason for despair of America if we had no crusades, no witch-hunts, no conflagrational mass movements. If this were a people made up of men and women stol- idly bent upon their own business instead of passion- ately interested in each other’s business, there would indeed be little hope for the future of the highest art in America. “Perhaps the trouble with those so unhappy in the American atmosphere is that they look for American emotion to dress itself in the accented European forms. There is the familiar regret that the children of the native American will not express themselves in the folk dances which come so easily to the children of the foreign-born on the lawns of Central park. But what of native self-expression on the baseball fields and in the football stands? An ancient Greek might have found something almost bacchantic in the Amer- ican cheer leader with the ball on the five-yard line and a minute to play. “The energy now expended in deploring the ab- sence of the joy of living in these United States might be profitably employed in guiding the native zest and optimism into the desired channels.” SERS iy CEE SOLVED BY GEOMETRY. The Kennedy-Obenchain-Burch affair on the Pacific coast which has attracted nation-wide attention, pos- sesses nothing of mystery at all. The principals con- cerned, and the officers searching for evidence would have us believe otherwise. To the person who analyzes the case appears noth- ing more than the most ordinary of triangles. A beautiful woman with two men madly in love with her. With the inevitable situation—the woman un- decided and playing them both. It has been so from the beginning and is likely to continue so to the end. The strongest desire in man is to possess woman. The woman that appeals to him. In the primitive day the man killed his rival with a stone hammer or a heavy club with large knots ~upon it, and dragged the object of his affection to his cave by the hair of the head. The refinements of civilization of this day have changed only the mode of gaining possession. Man is still primitive and he still desires the woman who pos- sesses the all compelling appeal. The Obenchain woman was a beautiful, but spoiled darling whom all men loved. Herself a pure trifler in affection. She did not appreciate a worthy and noble gentleman in her husband and divorced him. Burch held a certain attraction from college days. He was a worshipper but had a splendid wife and no excuse to divorce her. He was the desperate one. When he went to the coast and found the fickle object of his devotion trifling with another man, he didn’t use a stone hammer, he did it with a shotgun. If he could not have the woman, he made certain the other man could not. There’s the triangle. What more is there to it? ERS RES USN MR. HIGH SHERIFF MARQUIS. We believe the people of Natrona county are to be congraulated upon the action of the board of county commissioners in the wisdom they have shown in the selection of Joe L. Marquis to succeed Lee Martin who resigned the office of sheriff. The board could have searched long and diligently and not found a bet- ter qualified man. Both Martin and Marquis were candidates before the Republican primaries a year ago and it was a toss up as to which man the people pre- ferred and it was the last rally of the local friends of Mr. Martin that made him the candidate instead of Mr. Marquis who unfortunately did not live in Cas- per. : There is one thing very certain, Joe Marquis will be the sheriff. On this point there is not the slight- est doubt on the part of anyone who knows him, That is one very excellent pdint. Another thing that may be counted on, the laws i ? will be enforced and the disregard heretofore for the good order of the county is now at an erid We feel satisfied that the peace and dignity of Na- trona county will be maintained and evil doers will promptly learn that this is not exactly a profitable hunting ground for their operations. Joe Marquis is not the type of executive to go about with a chip on his shoulder and a brass band to an- nounce that he is hunting for trouble. He will find all the trouble as it occurs and the people who kick it up will always wish they had not done it, and they will never desire a second visit from Joe Marquis. There is going'to be law enforcement and there is geing to be general decency in Natrona county, if it requires the last man and the last dollar to put it over. Joe Marquis comes on the scene at a time when general cussedness has been having quite an inning. The criminal element has been rather bold, bolder in fact than was consistent with public safety. Wyoming has not been free from the general let down in mor- ality nor has the state entirely escaped the so-called crime waves that have swept over the country from time to time. : We have the confidence to believe that there will be something of a change for the better under the ad- ministration of Joe Marquis, and a wholesome respect for law and order will mark the future. Mr. Marquis will be ably seconded in all of his ef- forts for good by Mr. A. E. Biglin as undersheriff and Mr. H. L. Seidel as chief deputy, both excellent and highly regarded citizens. The board of county commissioners have done a very good day's work and the members are to be con- gratulated. oo Se EES SEP Te BOS DISCOVERING TALENT. “One of the concerns giving photoplay instructions by mail,” observes the Indianapolis News, “has orig- inated a ‘creative test’ by which it expects to discover hidden talent, and after such discoveries the only thing necessary to fame @nd fortune will be the course in instruction furnished by this school. The smbitious student is to apply for a ‘psychological —question- naire,’ for the determination of his ‘creative ability and dramatic insight.’ The list of questions it is said was prepared by a college professor and a screen writer. ‘Experts’ go over the answers and decide the applicant’s future. Then information will be sent ‘to tell you whether you possess that priceless mental as- set known as creative imagination, unquestionably the most valuable power for success known to the human mind.’ Where the family physician formerly looked at the tongue and asked a few questions, a new school seeks information about the ‘complex’ and generally decides that the patient needs a thorough psycho-an- alysis. The photoplay concern’s scheme seems similar. At-present a man does not know whether he can be a politician unless he tries, psycho-analysis will answer his question and if a nega- tive answer is given it will save him considerable mone;*.” — PLEASURE AND BENEFIT COMBINED. The chautauqua now in session at City Hall square is one of the most worth while institutions that visit this community. The entertainment features are of a higher class than come to us in any other form. The artistes who charm with voice and instrument have no superiors in the land. The lectures surpass in wisdom anything of similar character to be heard at home in the entire year. And the advantages to be gained from an educational standpoint are incalculable. The program this year is a wisely selected one and is a most complete blending of entertainment and education, adjusted to appeal not to the highbrow ex- clusively, not to the low brow at all; but to the gen- erality of folks who enjoy clean, wholesome things, the best in art, and who appreciate the inspiration such things afford. It is not believed to be necessary to urge Casper people to attend the chautauqnua, but it is by way of reminder that if any of the sessions are missed, the loss and regrets are your own. See THE KIWANIS OBLIGATION. The members of the Kiwanis are not only regular fellows, they are regular Americans. When they broke bread yesterday at their noonday feast they paused long enough to condemn the involuntary dis- respect on the part of the general public to the Amer- ican flag and its defenders, and to resolve that so far as its members are concerned a concerted effort will be made to awaken the latent patriotism of the peo- ple and arouse them to a sense of the obligations owed the men who bore arms in the country’s cause. The Kiwanis will not only attempt to inspire the people to a sense of their duty but they will as an or- ganization—by precept and example, lead the way, in honoring the flag and the heroes who fought under it. In their action the Kiwanis members have made a new place for themselves in the public esteem; and have commended themselves to all patriotic American citizens who realize the meaning of the country’s em- blem and acknowledge the debt to the brave men who be Casper Daily Cribune Makes the Bucks Wid.

Kellogg’s are unlike any corn flakes you ever ate! They’re the original kind—they ought to be best! No other corn flakes are so deliciously flavored; no other corn flakes retain such wonder-crispness till eaten! It’s a good idea to pour in the milk or cream at the side of the flakes—not over them! Kellogg’s are always a delight to serve—and a treat to cat at any meal! In fact, you’ll never know how good corn flakes can be until ‘you know KELLOGG’S!

An ex- ample is furnished by Federal Reserve bank checks. These cannot be cut from any regular size of paper without a lot of paper going into the scrap heap. “In the war period the people at Washington sent out a questionnaire that would not fit in any standard size filing cabinet. Special cabinets had to be built to accommodate it. “And the waste of paper in catalogues has been outrageous. Of 927 catalogues examined by the Technical Publishers’ association 147 different sizes were found. What this variety means may be appre- ciated when it is said the trimming of one-quarter inch from a 6x9 page equals 7 per cent of the cost of the paper.” 2 SE TRUTH IN HISTORY. “Dr. John J. Tigert, United States commissioner of education, wants a new kind of history teaching,” as- serts. the New York Evening Post. “He is not the first to charge international misunderstanding to propaganda masquerading as history, but he is par- ticularly outspoken sbout it. Just what he thinks ought to be done to our history courses in detail he did not say when he addressed the New Jersey teach- ers at New Brunswick last week, but he intimated that he wants school histories that tell the truth even when it is disagreeable rather than those that per- petuate cheerful fictions. He asked for history books that, regardless of where made and used, will all tell the same story of Chancellorsville and Appomattox, Sumter and Sherman; histories that will enable Amer- icans and Canadians alike to recognize the encounter that goes under the name of Lundy’s Lane; texts that describe accurately the chaos that followed the Amer. ican revolution, instead of glossing over what Fiske truly termed ‘The Critical Period.’ This is a high ideal. In attempting to reach it authors and publish- ers will run up against narrow-minded school boards. But it is an idea worth fighting for.” DRESSES | One assortment.
