THE CITY'S GARBAGE. ae A matter of bighest importance In a city the size) of Casper is the collection and disposal of garbage. It has a direct bearing upon the cleanliness of the city} end the health of the people. The performance of this} highly essential work can be well done or ill done. It} depends upon the vigilance of the health and police au- thorities of the city and ied the contractor or li- e for the disposal of refuse. Until such nea the city provides an incineration} plant, it must depend upon the ordinary methods in at a city dump. *°On thie Medi the individual or company in charge ef disposal should be thoroughly reliable and proper- ly equipped to do the business under the laws and or- dinmances. The work to be satisfactorily done should be in the hands of one concern, licensed and held to strict accountability for the performance of duty. It would relieve the city of detail in directing numer- ovs licensees; and at the same time relieve the citi- zens of considerable nuisance and pansies reer *§ng scavenger work done, by improperly equipped an ne cased persons engaged or having the right, by license, to undertake the work. The matter of collecting garbage and disposing of it will always be vexing, unless it is in the hands of ‘one concern, equipped for this exclusive purpose, and given an exclusive or as nearly exclusive license or contract as is possible, and it is within the police and health powers of the city so to do. It is understood that the City Sanitary Corporation, organized under’ Wyoming laws was licénsed by the city in August, undertook a considerable expense for equipment, with the understanding that its license or franchise was to be exclusive. It now seems that the city has granted licenses to others. ‘ Since the job of garbage collection and disposal pro- vides about enough work to make it profitable for one concern, we can see no special advantage of the city’s making several bites of the gavage cherry. The City Sanitary Corporation should be treated fairly in the matter and should be protected in the in- vestment it has made to do the city’s work. ies Se ee THE OUTLOOK IS ENCOURAGING. The real basis for confidence in the course of bus!- ness in 1922 is now clear. Notwithstanding the se- vere depression during the past year, purchases by! the American people in terms of physical volume were sufficient to absorb to a large extent accumulated stocks so that a gradual increase in output of many classes of manufactures may be expected. Future needs must be supplied primarily from current pro- duction. This means greater business activity and ex- plains the expansion in manufactures which has taken place in recent weeks. The general tone of business during the first two weeks of January has been encouraging. The total physical volume of retail trade is good. Sales in agri- cultural districts continue slower than in cities, with trade in the east and northeast and in southern Cali- Associated Editor} within the past six months 75 new school rooms have been added to the district’s housing facilities, you will agree that is quite a lot, regardless of the number of | new buildings. That is the record in district No. 2, and the end is file in| not yet, for many of the schools are still overcrowded Zoston offices and visitors) and new pupils are enrolled constantly. The total en- | rollment in the district, a week ago had reached 3,952, | making it far and away the largest district in the state. tional and social life before returning to their own land. “One of the Oxford soldier-students has written his impressions for American readers. Accepting his vie as a composite type, we get some illuminating facts to impressions gained by all these Ameri<a: visitors. “Comparisons are idle. But in yen-ral teims we are told that the English universities are places where students are taught to think rather than absorb de- tailed information, There are fewer ‘courses’ than in America and fewer mid-tern examinations. But there is more individual tutoring and more intensive work | on specialized subjects. “It is in athletics, however, that one finds really in- teresting comparisons. At Oxford and Cambridge all the students spend their afternoons on college athletic fields in some form of sport. It may be cricket, or rowing, or basketball, or golf. But there are no ‘gal- leries,’ comparatively speaking. Everyone takes part instead of merely watching others play. “Sports are not highly organized nor run on mathe- matical lines, as in most American colleges. are no claquers or cheer leaders. Nor do the pla: ers seem specially interested about winning a game. They play hard and observe all the rules of clean sport, but seem almost indifferent to the ultimate result of the game. Winners or losers it is all the same. They have played. “And then they have tea. That was the one insti- tution that the American soldier-students found hard to understand at first. But having become convinced that the English afternoon tea habit means social re- laxation and good fellowship, as practiced by genera- tions of former students, they rather, like it.” ES EE Es LET THE SKIRTS ALONE! “When mere men,” asserts the St. Paul Pione Press, “whether they are doctors or health commis-|" sioners or just ordinary men, busy themselves with the length of the skirts as a hygienic proposition, and the use of low shoes and silk stockings as a menace to health we may be pardoned for suspecting their -mo- tives and even traducing them. At regular intervals some authority, usually not a doctor, who is too smart to tread on unbidden ground, and most frequently a health comrhissioner, who must pose as a slave to duty, breaks out against the ever-abbreviating skirt and the weather-proof silk hosiery which no season can daunt. Why do they do it? Because there is a certain f: cinating naughtiness te the eubject. Does it do any good? Not the least in the world. These same men no doubt would prefer to talk of chemisettes and bras- sieres, but they lack the pretext. “But Health Commissioner Copeland of New York goes after elusive fame from the other angle. He says the skirt and the stocking and the low shoes are re- moved from the list of hygienic issues; peril, he main- tains, lies only in the matter of the daily habit. Place ond circumstances alone must dictate the danger as well as the good taste of feminine apparel. Whether he ever permitted his eye to rest with mingled wonder and admiration upon a specimen of the genus flapper, muffled in furs from shoulder to knee—a midbody pic- ture of winter with the extreme of summer suggested by exposed throat and silk-shimmering calves—wheth- er he found such a picture easy to the eye, we say, is a matter of conjecture. From what he says, probably not; though not from lack of opportunity. “The designer may say an effective word on this subject of attire, though we doubt it. Assuredly the doctor may not. He has not had time to marshal a lot of statistics showing the fatality of knee skirts and underwearless-stockings and all he can do is to preach. So if he continues it will be because he likes the sub- ject. And if the laity keeps up the talk it will be cpen to the same suspicion.
