CARNIVAL WILL CLOSE TONIGHT | ‘The American Legion's big circus will come to a close tonight, and with |it will end the engagement of the <. | A. Wortham shows in this city. It has been very successful from every | viewpoint, both for attendance and entertainment. The Wortham shows | have set a new standard for outdoor amusements, and in future all shows will be measured up to the Wortham mark. There are almost 500 yeople with the Wortham shows, and it is reported that they spent considerable money for wearing apparel as well as for food and lodgings while in Casper. So it would seem that a show of this kind does not take away all of the money that is spent at the different shows. It costs quite a little to hire the teams and drivers that puli the wagons to and from the train, and the railroa4 collects the money here for the next move of the show. There was a tremenlous crowd on the midway Friday night, and they remained until late, visiting the differ- ent shows. Everyone seemed to be having a good time, and those who did not enjoy themselves have no one but themselves to biame, as there was plenty of amusement and entertain ment for everyone. Arrangements have been completed to accommodate the largest crowd of the week tonight, and in many of the shows the program will be changed entirely, so that those who saw them last week can see a . Ban't lcomed up at an intersecting boule- vard directly tn front of us. A pros- perous old farmer at the wheel, his wife in spotiess linen at his side, a basket of eggs, some chickens, and other farm truck reposed peacefully in the back of the car. Our brakes grab quick enough, and “bang! we crashed into him amid- ships, tearing off both hind wheeis, a fender, his gasoline tank, and strewing butter, eggs and chickens in reckless abandon along that ele- gant highway. Shaken up but un- hert, the wife rushed to call the village police. ‘The old man crawled out and waved hiv fists frantically. The town butcher with his dirty apron and cleaver in hand appeared on the scene, with a menacing look in bis eye. The crowd gathefed and all the village Sherlock Holmes began fixing the blame for the acci- dent. Of course the “wild man from Wyoming” was guilty. Had he not violated the traffic laws of California and endangered the [fe of one of the leading citizens of Claremont? We were putting up our best argument in an attempt to justify our acts, but admittedly los- ing ground fast and the prospect looked dark indeed for a stranger im a strange land, 2,006 miles from home and without a friend. All of a sudden things changed. The old man had spied that Casper Auto club emblem with the “A. A. A.” on i. He stuck out his hand, which we grasped with some embarrass- ment. “See here, my friend,” he said, ere’s no use of us fighting. I see you aro a member of the Auto Club. So am I. Any man who be- longs to his local auto club must be all right. We'll just leave this dis- pute to th. auto club like we do out here in California.

MORE ARRESTS MADE IN AUTO THEFT PROBE Four More Youths Held by Authorities as. Members “Ring” Accused of Thievery Here. Proceedings in the uncovering of Casper’s youthful ring of alleged auto- mobile thieves continued today, and culminated in the arrest of four other youths, said to be members of the A complete list of arrests made in the case to date was given oui by the sheriff's office this morning. Those) now held for trial are: Robert Hawks. (alleged leader of the ring), Cecil Rinkler, Harold Spaulding, James McDowell, Harry, Bright Charles Kinneman, Joe Adriance, Jack Wolff. Bright was about to be. released through lack of evidence against him, Friday arternoon, when a misstate- ment, by one of the boys caused sus- picion to rest anew on him, and he is held with the rest. _ The case against the boys will, be handled by the state authorities and it is probable that they will either plead guilty to charges or be forced to stand trial in district court. If con- victed, they will be ser: to the state reform school at Weriand, for a pe- riod which will be left largely to the discretion of he judge, ‘The arrest of the boys camie as a re- sult of a long continued reign of thiev- ing known to have.operated in Casper for three months. Tires, hatteries, carburetors, other accessories, and even automobiles themselves are said to have been taken by the boys. A de- termination by the authorities to "chase down” the miscreants, and in increased boldness by the ring in their acts finafly led to the clean‘up which began Friday afternoon . amd ended in less than 24 hours. “sancti ro CigB ic ab How Many Pounds Would You Like to Gain in 2 Week?

PONTIAC, Mich., June 16.—Owing to the continued increase in demand for Willys-Khight cars, a portion of ‘the No. 3 plant of the Wilson Foundry & Machine Co., of this city has been assigned for the expansion of the mo- ‘tor division, to permit for the second [time the doubling of Willys-Knight miotor production. The Wilson Foundry & Machine company is the manufacturing divi- sion for Willys-Knight motors pro- duced by the Willys-Overland com- pany of Toledo, Ohio. It was largely the economies of removing the assem- biy operations of the Willys-Knight motor from the Elyria plant to Pon- ‘tiac, which made possible the great |reduction in the price of the Willys- Knight car last March. With the re- moval of this production to Pofitiac the capacity for production of Willys- Knight motors was doubled. So great has been the demand for ‘Witlys-Knight cars since the reduc- tion in price that it has been neces- sary to double motor production again. The mail order divisions have been lremoved from Pontiac to Toldeo, and [the entire building in which this work was housed is now devoted to the as- ‘vembly of Willys-Knight motors.

MIRROR The utility is a mirror that faithfully reflects the city or town it serves. If a glimpse into that mirror reveals that the community’s in- herent fairness is marred by the unsightly erup- tions of unmerited opposition, the rash of op- pression or other blemishes springing from the bile of misunderstanding, it is time for a specific. Healthy good will and friendliness are reflected in the service and rates of the gas company, the telephone company or the electric company— ill-will or prejudice is just as truly reflected.

It costs public service companies much money to combat such unfair demands. Naturally such costs become apparent in the rates that must be charged for service. Tom E. was seated in his car one day on a country roadside, in- tently adding a column of figures—sales he had made to’farmers. He was a salesman. Roaring and spluttering down the road came 2 great oil truck out of control of the driver—CRASH! Crushed and bleed- ing Tom E. was hurried to a hospital and within six months was physi- cally well, but mindless—all memory gone. He-lived in‘a dream state, totally unconscious of his past, or who he was. For three years he wandered from city to city, dimly perceiving that something was wrong. He visited specialists, doctors, and surgeons, to no effect. One day he stumbled into a Chiropractor’s office in a western city and received an adjustment in the neck region. Immediately he sat up and began figuring ‘7 and 6 are 13, and 7 art 20, and—My God! Where am I?” \ Wonderful! Miraculous!
