THE STICKING POINT. The one thing most in the way of a fairly satisfac- tory adjustment of living conditions in Casper, is ex- erbitant rents and learn that the war is over and we are on the way back to normal conditions, and reduce rents to fig- ures within hailing distance of labor pay checks, Cas- per will still be the best town on earth. Living costs, so far as provisions are concerned, are on a fair basis. Other eccesaries like shoes and clothing are likewise within rc-ach again after their aeroplane trip skywards. Rents remain out of reach of the ordinary payroll worker. Are the landlords going to remain obdurate and re- fuse to be readjusted along with their brothers, the merchant, the grocer, the shoe man and the rest? Are the landlords going to be the ones to give the city the only black eye she will exhibit to the public in the matter of coming back to fairness and nor- malcy? It would be much nicer and show better sportsman- ship to face readjustment now than later to have the finger of scorn pointed in your direction and to be publicly invited to climb down off the tall percheron. pes SONS TR THE STARS OF FILMDOM. The picture stars whom we have learned to respect and admire from coristantly viewing their work upon the screen, and whom we have invested with a sacred- ness and immunity from ordinary shortcomings of. humanity because of the highly moral Isesons their pictured characters portray, cut a sorry figure when the veil is lifted from their everyday lives. They are angels no longer. humanity ever gets. We are shocked at the things they have done, said and written in their private lives. They have lost the high place they held in our esteem and our interest in them is no more than pity for their weaknesses. There are possibly many actors and actresses in pictures who are above the mode of life commonly lived in picture colonies, and against whom there is no breath of scandal. It is unfair to them that the actions of other and less moral.members should be the means of smirching their characters or professional reputations, yet they are made to suffer just the same. As the stars, one by one, fall from the picture firma-' ment, those remaining are cast in shadow. There is no great business or industry so deeply in need of general reformation, in both personnel and product, as the moving picture industry. It grows more and more disappointing. The big producers have absolutely falien down on quality, actors have deteriorated in performance and the local exhibitor is up against the public’s criticism and blame. Change in public taste and demand has not been taken into account and the offerings show no advance- ment in the great majority over things that have gone before. It may be some time in dying but the picture busi- ness will surely go. unless standards are raised, moral- ly among those who perform, and artistically on the part of those who produce. AE A THE EDUCATORS OF THE MASSES. The editor who does not date back to “hand set” days and reached importance in the newspaper pro- fession by way of the country newspaper office has not lived life in its fullest sense. The joys, sorrows and struggles of compelling an unwilling weekly to blossom freshly every Wednesday is a job that de- velops patience, strength and resourcefulness in the man who undertakes it and sticks with it until the hellish purpose is accomplished. No weakling, mental- ly, morally or physically, ever succeeded at it. The satisfaction of “telling the world” from a precarious position on the tripod in the sombre sanctum once per week is about the only compensation. Getting by with a monumental bluff, well sustained by nerve, may be another recompense, counted by some. We have seen the bluff fail. Financially, the average country weekly of other days was a joke and circus tickets were legal tender! for meal tickets. Unless, perchance, the editor and publisher, like he of the Arizona Kicker, combmed a half dozen other businesses under the same roof. Recalling weexiy newspaper publishers of another’ day, whose marble busts adorn the hall of fame, count as present the West Virginia hero, who published a pa- per forty miles from an uncertain branch railroad and depended upon “patent insides” from a ready print city establishment, who carried this legend at the head of his editorial column: “Our regular publication day §s Thursday of each week; but we reserve the privi- lege of coming out when we damn please.” How like the days of the Bingville Bugle and the Jerusalem Gazette the folowing from the Meeteetsee News seems: “On account of the poorly printed paper ofthe past President and Editor) Make it your duty to} When landlords come to their senses} They are as drab and common as} |en such extremely cold days as Monday and other days of last month, the printing of a newspaper has! been one of the events thst has tried our souls.| Pacer’ is an absolute requisite for both press and ink.’ d | | At that the cold spell was still | Second spasm was pulled. | OO | in progress when the) REWARDING THE DEFENDERS. Not alone in national legislation but in state legis- | ation as well the Republican party has demonstrated its desire to do everything possible for the aid and| | relief of those who bore the burden of battle in the! | Puropean war. By the end of the fiscal year 1923 sppropiations for which are now being made by con- | Sress the federal government will have spent approxi- jm ly $2,200,000,000 for soldier relier, including the | distribution of a cash bonus of $60 each, totalling $250,000,000. In addition congress has extended spe- cial immunities and privileges to ex-service men that! cannot be reckoned in money. The Veteran’s bureau and other sources of soldier relief are now spending money at the rate of about $450,000,000 a year and it is estimated that the soldiers’ bonus law, now pend-! ing will call for anywhere between $1,560,000,000| and $5,250,000,000. A review of aid provided by the states discloses that the most generous provision has been made by} the states having Republican majorities and Repub- i administrations, a number of the states of the solid Democratic south not even being mentioned in the list oc ciose having provided aid for the veterans of the world war. The review is as follows: | | | California.—Civil service preference for veterans. Educational aid up to $1,000 for each soldier. Aid in farm and home settlemeni.
