The person whose sensibilities do not respond to the autumn season in Wyoming, whose soul is not up- lifted by the beauties and colors of nAture, the scope and grandeur of the scene unrolled before him in October, is, indeed a person narrow and selfish and deadened, by materialism, to things God intended for his appreciation and elevation. Go where you will upon the earth. and season where highest perfection is attained, The spring, with new life succeeding a season of ipen- sion, of cold and barrenness, with her joyous awaken- ing, the song of birds, the charm of bloom and flower, the smell of earth, the growing things, the cloudless skies, the warmth and brilliance of the sunshine. The glorious summer, her fulness and maturity, the boun- ties of field and forest, plain and mountain. And then autumn, the season of,completion. When nature ren- ders an accounting of the labors of the faithful hus- bandman. When with bold and unerring stroke the great artist lays on his colors to finish the entrancing picture. Winter, with his autocracy of ice and snow, the majesty of sweeping gale and biting cold. ‘You ave found, perhaps, places in your travels, where nuzuce has lavished her blessings in profusion, and shown to earth's children her power and resource, You have seen and admired, you have been awed to silence by wonderment, By the mystery of creation. But have you stood uj he eternal hills of Wyo- ming in October?’ Havé You witnessed the perfect day? Haye you seen the sun’gfld the mountain peaks across the valley to the westward? Haye you ob- served the changing colors of mountain and plaititad he advanced across ‘the hlue vault? And as-he sank into:a couch of pink and gold have you caught the tinge of délicate purple upon the edge. of things? Have you noticed the gradation in hues from the deep green of the fir and cedar of the mountains to the lesser shade of the sage upon the plain? The bril- Nancy of the reds and yellows as you descend the slopes to the valleys where the early frosts have pre- ceded you? If you have, you have caught just a glimpse of Wyoming in October. A fuller and longer experience will bring you to agree that-in all of the seasons of the year and in all the climates of the earth, no sea- son and no clime compare with Wyoming in October. Choose the place ES ts aa ee HANDED THEM THE FACTS. They had an old fashioned mass meeting in Denver the other evening. All the folks were there. The ob- ject was to discover some better means of enforcing the prohibition laws... The women’s organizations of the city were the seckers after the means. One rather wealthy and socially prominent lady made the grave error of taking a crack at Judge Lindsey because in the course of court business that day he had dis- charged several men for furnishing liquor to 16-year- old girls, because of defective laws protecting chil- dren from such offenses. The judge suggested that social workers would do well to direct their attention to the homes from whence came these 16-year-old girls, since the state of Colorado refused to protect them. And while he had his sleeves rolled up the judge of the juvenile court told the audience just héw the officials of the city and county protected the wealthy violators of the prohibition law, told them all about the cellars of the rich, stocked with wine and booze, how a citizen named Blackmer, the owner of $36,000 worth of booze, escaped punishment and a truck driver delivering the goods to Blackmer’s home was arrested and jailed and the booze confiscated . t3< told them a lot more. He told them and made *pem like it just because the chairman of the meetin and oth- ers attempted to suppress him. The Lindsey address created some consternation in polite social circles, but then the judge is a regular rough neck and given to rough pian talk. His view of the enforcement laws are that they are employed to punish the poor, while the wealthier offenders es- cape the toils. He says it amounts to little less than @ conspiracy. The original object of the mass meeting received no special urge, because the mob would have nothing else than the cold truth ladeled out by the kid’s judge, after the meeting had permitted the lady orator to criticise the judge’s cdurt action. dm any event there is some breeze blowing in Den- ver and the question of better enforcement is still un- settled. PR so (aasee LEE ASS ER HOW TO REVIVE BUSINESS. “To a larger extent than is generally realized,” ob- serves Leslie’s, ‘the present business dullness is due to'the apathy or the unhopefulness of business men themselves. Not a few producers have been too thor- oughly daunted by the adverse circumstances and haye not made proper efforts to improve them. "It is true that there has been a marked falling off. in that buying activity on which the life of business and general prosperity depend. But-there still exists an immense potential buying power in this country, which needs only the right stimulus to call it into ac- tion: Henry Ford has lately demonstrated this in a signal manner. At one time, owing to the setback in the automobile industry, the maturing of nearly $60,- 006,000 of obligations and inability to borrow from the*banks on suitable terms, his vast enterprise at De- troit was supposed to be on the verge of disaster. But Mr.-Ford grappled heroically with the situation, in- stituted drastic economies, reduced prices and pushed and at a greater total profit. Various other estabiish- ments—rubber, auto, glove, ete-—report decided ex- pansion instead of lessening of output and sales so far in this stagnant year of 1921. There are doubt- Jess thousands of instances in various lines in which the methods employed by these men to stir up busi- ness could be made effective. _ “For what is the secret of success in such unpropi- tious times? It is redoubled energy in bringing wares to the attention of the public, in exciting a desire and creating « domend for the goods. ‘In addition to keep- ing*up their field forces the concerns which defy ad- versity continue to advertise in the newspapers and magazines as freely as ever. - “With more courage, optimism and exertion hosts of individuals and corporations in the United States could be transacting more business and making the readjustment period shorter and even a good payer.” RAR SS PPS oh NO BETTER MAN. While the esteemed Guernsey Gazette cannot quite agree with us with reference to some things we have said respecting Governor Carey it finds itself in ac- cord upon the proposition that John Hay is just about the biggest citizen in Wyoming. The Gazette in its latest issue says this: “The Casper Tribune mentions the name of John Hay for governor of Wyoming. We don't take quite the same stand on our present governor that The Tribune tak but when it proposes the name of John Hay we can say, there is not a better man within the “Lest We Forget” Thousands of brave Americans died in that Devil's Broth across the Other thousands died in the cantonments on this side of the seas. could live In peace, happiness and pros- Have these “Other forgotten the debt they owe to those who died that they piensa Still other thousands, 7,atless, legless or armless are yet suffering the tortures of Hell.

BED-TIME STORIES FOR THE LITTLE TOTS By AUNT MILDRED. THE FAIRIES’ DANCE. Out tn the wood where the berries grew, the fairy queen danced in the dew; her many helpers, fairy sprites kept a lookout on the heights, while humans slept the whole ‘night through, missite the pretty sjghta. The fairy queen felt quite safe, knowing that very few people arise as roaids-of-honor and ladies-in-waiting to her Majesty weer the colors as 4 badge, attached to Queen's initial in Diamonds. which is the his sales so energetically that he soon raised the money needed, rehabilitated his business, and his plant fs now <uruing out a larger number of cars than ever 4 bounds of the state than he to hold an important pub- lic office.” — THE FACTOR OF PUBLIC OPINION. “Floods of misinformation have been let loose in all countries in regard to the arms limitation confer- ence and its bearings upon international relations,” says the Washington Post. “Ignorance and prejudice are doing mischief, not merely by emphasizing points of difference, but by interfering with the efforts of the governments concerned to bring about an im- prevement in world conditions. All sorts of foolish suggestions are forthcoming, most of them fortunate- ly carrying the seeds of their own death with them. The most dangerous effect of the irresponsible talk, of course, Ys in inflaming public passions in nations which have every good reason to keep their tempers. “It should go without saying that any American holding a responsible position, as for instance a place in the senate, should be careful of his utterances, for the sake of furthering a cause which commands the patriotism of every good citizen. If a senator will only imagine his own counterpart standing in the Ja- panese house of peers and uttering statements tend- ing to enrage the American people, he will see how wickedly foolish it is to use the conference as an ex- cuse for partisan assault. “The most delicate point of contact between peo- ples at this juncture, the point where friction is like- ly to develop with unforeseen consequences, is the contact ef the Japanese and American nations. It is not because either people is seeking war, or because either is trying to overreach the other. It is becau: they are poorly informed concerning each other, and are peculiarly liable to become infected with preju- dice disseminated by ignorance and malice. “The devil's work is now being performed by wil- ing agents im several countries endeavoring to bring about a clash between the Japanese and Americans, In some quarters it is suggested that certain national interests would be promoted by a conflict between the United States and Japan; but this suggestion is in it- self a piece of ignorance, for'a moment’s thought will show that no nation can hope to gain as much as it gold ring. about a It didn’t provoked. had seen. them, she saw Mary, sprites to her because She early as the sun does and so she made a sad mistake and danced too long.| It was the day after Mary and Bob- bie had gone berrying and Mary dis covered that she had lost her little She was frightened and very sorry, so the next morning just at sunrise she crept out of bed and dressed; and took Dapple Grey from her early morning munch of cats to ride back to the berry patch and to look for the lost ring. felt well, she pranced and capered happily as you please the morning air was so pure and fresh. take Mary long to get to the berry patch, but she arrived far too soon to please the fairy queen who was dancing in the wood.

People are not sup- posed to know we dance in this wood, because some who don't believe in us might try to hurt us.” “I promise, honor bright,” said Mary. "Then ¢lose your eyes tightly,” sald the queen, “and say after me ‘whatever you wish you may recetve if you believe, if you believe,’ " Mary said “whatever you wish you may receive if you believe, If you believe.

All the would lose by a Japanege-American war, The na-| — tions that thought they had gained by the world war have discovered thzt they are losers in many unex- ‘pected ways. Prosperity has a common level, like ‘water, and. draining of prosperity| from one na- tion draws {€ from others Territorial gains are lia- bilities if.econdmic losses impoverish a nation. “Qne of the common opinions. durihg the armis- tice period was that the surrender of the German’ fleet ‘would greatly enhance the strength’ of the British navy. There was rivalry among the powers over the disposition of the German warships. But it was dis- covered that these ships were, a liability, instead of an asset, and at a suspiciously opportune moment,, when the entire British fleet was looking the other way, the German fleet was sunk. “Now the discovery is made that the Versailles treaty, by making it impossible for Germany to build a big fleet or maintain a big army, has actually placed Germany at an economic advantage over all other countries in Europe. Germany is the only great na- tion, excepting China and the United States, that is not bankrupt or headed toward bankruptcy’ because of armament expenses. “These two discoveries, namely, the worthlessness of a great captured fleet and the forcible exemption of Germany from armament expens¢s, illustrate the ease with which governments, not to say peoples, can be misled when they are most sure they are right. The tendency to mistake opinions for facts is inten- sified when opinions are uttered by ‘experts,’ who have repeatedly shown that they are blind leaders of the blind. “As for the remedies proposed by well-meaning vol- untecr physicians of the world’s maladies, they are usually worse than the disease. The short cuts to permanent world peace are suggested without knowl- edge of vital factors, which are known ‘in their en- tirety only to government heads. Why not leave the roblem to the parties responsible for its solution, who foste to be best qualified to solve it—the govern- ment authorities? If any citizen should happen to possess special information, or should be struck by what seems to him a happy idea, he can easily get in touch with the. proper authorities of his government and give them the benefit of his suggestions. In most cates the publication of his ideas is either prejudicial to the cause or it is premature, if the suggestions have merit at all. “It is worth while to remember that the United States is the most fortunately situated country on earth. The conference will not affect the fortunes of this country, either for good or ill, as much as it will aifect other countries. The great governments con- cerned are in duty bound to seize the opportunity to extricate themselves from a precarious situation. The United States will do its best to help them. A steady, friendly, unemotional public opinion in all countries will do much to make the conference a success.” So SE St GOVERNMENT BY BLOC. “Being something new in American legislative his- tory, government by bloc attracts attention,” observes the Cleveland Plain Dealer. ‘It merits serious con- sideration. Do the constituents of congressmen wish them to rote as if they represented, not states and districts and the people as a whole, but a particular, largely localized interest? “If sgriculture has its bloc, labor is entitled to a bloc; the railroads to a bloc; the coal interests and the shipping interests to their separate blocs. If gov- ernment by bloc is what the American people waht of congress they might as well carry the idea out to the full. There is no use foaling with half-way measures. ¢ “Our own opinion is that bloc government is an in- defensible invasioin of the people’s right to control the legislative branch of government. It introduces an element in legislative procedure dangerous in its possibilities. It puts into the hands of a minority a club with which it may compel the majority to do its bidding; to prevent any piece of needed legislation un- til something the bloc wants done has been accom- plished, to distort relative values in law making and render impossible the carrying out of any comprehen- sive, constructive program designed for the benefit or the whole people.” “The Greatest Shaving Mileage” AZOR blades should be bought like tires—for the “mileage” they give. Over nine million men have become enthusiastic users of the Durham- Duplex Razor because its wonderful oil-tempered blades give more shaves—greater “‘mileage’’—than any other blade! And a blade that shaves you again and again without losing its keen edge is a blade that doesn’t “rasp” or “pull.” Safe Kazor FOR SALE BY THESE LEADING DEALERS: CASPER LOAN OFFICE AND SCHULTE HARDWARE CO.
