PAGE FOUR BARNETT BUYS LEASE AND STOCK | OF THE FRIEDMAN FASHION SHOP Ladies’ Wear to Be Closed Out by Men’s Haber- dashery Firm Starting Monday; Friedman To Retire From Active Business Something new in the merchandis ing line in Casper is the latest move of the Earnett Outfitting company. Finding themselves without store space, the company purchased not only the lease of the Fashion Shop on Center street but also the stock of women's ready-to-wear. This stock will be sold at greatly reduced prices, according to Max Petger, manager, in order to clear it up in the sohrtest possibie time and make the store ready for the high-grade line of men’s haberdashery which Barnett Ties. Barnett'’s moved out of the location which they occupied for several years on East Second street a week ago. According to the proprietors of the company, they could not continue to pay the rental asked for that loca tion. What stock was left after the close out sale, was packed and already at the station ting shipment to Denver when Mr. Barnett became aware of the possibility of acquiring the Fashion Shop lease. I. D.

They have tried time and time again to get engagements at the same studio at the same time, even Sf not in the same picture. They really have never ex- pected to get in the same picture, for what play could stand the strain of two villains? But “Wild Honey,” the Priscilla Dean feature at the Hub Tuesday and Sunday, did stand it. The brothers-in- crime have the roles that put the darker shadings into the story. Noah as a. rough-hewn upstart in English society, Wallace as a fiendish stage driver and thug in the Transvaal. Although in the same production at the same studio, working with the same director and star, the Beerys did not get to work together, even uf- ter waiting nine years. Noah’s char- acterization was entirely in the first episodes and Wallace's in the last, the former finishing before Wallace began. ‘This personal angle on their per- formances didn’t prevent their giving excellent portrayals, however. Every one knows the Beery brothers and what they can do. They are giants in. screen villainy, and “Wild Honey’ ought to be worth seeing on their ac- count.

The shifting sands of civilization jhave buried the products of these races until only the energy a>d labor jof skilled investigators is able to re- | veal them, according to the bishop. “The white race of Asia and Europe has developed nationalities that have |controlied the destinies of the world temporarily, and all have come to their end.” | Hindu pacifism and Mohammedan |militarism were made a subject of much consideration by the bishop, who showed how India is being rapidly overrun by the invading Turk. also lamented the fact that Europe at the present time is un | christianized. ,. “What"a picture Europe is.that for the last 2,000 years has held the chalice of the great white Christ,” he declared. | “What a task this graduating class has to look upon.

I only know |that if the moral standards continue |to slip, another race will come in place jof the present one,” he asserted. | The bishop next turned to the school, |which he characterized as “the great est achievement of this generation to |be recorded by futfre historians. Whatever else may be done, the chil- dren must be taught. “Education is not simply a head thing nor a hand thing,” he con- tinued, and brought out the need for discipline, method in work, concentra- tion and industry, as a regult of school education, That with all things at his hand, man has not been able to find a method by which he can add one second to his day, was a strong point of the speaker's. The present complexity of life in contrast to the few interests possessed by man a generation or two ago was also brought out. “The danger of the day,” said the bishop, ‘is to touch everything so lightly that concentration, method, and industry are almost unknown.” ‘The elective system was ‘vigorously at- tacked as being carried to extremes by present-day educators, and as not fit- ting the modern high school graduate for college. “A diploma may mean nothing more than that the student has spent so many hours studying. “The ability to think, to concentrate and to develop method is in direct pro- portion to the habit of self restraint. How will the standards of Christ be held up against the surging race of color across the Pacific?"? The present low standards of the church were also brought under fire by the speaker. ‘Is the church of BIG DANCE TONITE FOR A REAL GOOD TIME COME TO DREAMLAND ROOF GARDEN DANCING PAVILION.
