A complete and acientific zoning system for the city of Casper. A comprehensive municipal and school recreation park system, in cluding sv ng pools for the children of Casp Complet! of the established Scenic Route boulevard as planned by the county commissioners to Garden Creek Falls and return. Better roads for Natrona county and more highways for Wyoming. More equitable freight rates for shippers of the Rocky Mountain region and more frequent train service for Casper. BUILD MORE CHURCHES The necessity of providing more adequate facilities for the church going public of Casper becomes in- creasingly evident with the growth of the city. At the recent Easter services multitudes sought various places of worship and were unable to obtain admittance. That, of course, was true in the greatest cities of the country on Easter Sun- day; but Casper’s crying need of religious expansion is linked closely with its need of more architectural beauty. That in a city of 25,000 inhabi- tants there is but one real religious edifice physically worthy of the name is ® sad commentary on a wide-awake municipality where con- siderable wealth is congregated, even’ | for its size. The Episcopal church is planning a magnificent new home, and the Presbyterian church is now campaigning for a fund of $150.000 with which to erect a structure in which the city can take a just pride. This amount is reasonable enough, it would seem, considering the cost of materials and labor. Casper has passed from the small town stage, and real It can not ge the city it should be, if provision is not made sfor religious as well as materia] in- terests. The men and women of the Pres- byterian ‘church are working with commendable zeal in the great en- terprise they have vundertaken, and Sthe sacrificial spirit is not wanting. In this they should have the hearty co-operation of their friends ‘and all who desire to make Casper fmot on a gre r city, but a better Scity in which to live and to bring up {their families.

The wayfarer! within the gates of Casper would} not long go thirsty, if he were mind- ed to hunt out some illicit potables. Indeed, as a proof of the inade- quacy and even impossibility of en- | forcing the prohibition law as it now stands, we would be minded, on a large wager, to guarantee that any intelligent, thirsty man could be put | down in any city ir the country of| more than 10,000 population and get a drink or drinks within twenty- four hours time, if he were untiring in his efforts to get some “‘hooch.” | It is this. condition which ac-| counts for the flurry over the evils of Washington. It would be inter- esting, indeed, to have reliable sta- tisticians compile figures on the amount of drinking in so-called ‘‘so-| circles now and six or seven years ago. That it would be greater today, in effect if not in volume, no one who-has been in the large | population cenfers of the country, jand looked around even on the out- skirts of social functions, can gain- say. Nor is this promiscuous and studied evasion of the law confined to the “400” of New York. It oc- cupies a proud place in the annals of all circles of Gotham society, as of Los Angeles, the denizens of Chi- cago from the Loop District to the exlusive residential section; and in all probability among many other- “best” people in Kalamazoo, Kokomo, and kindred spots from Jacksonville to Seattle and from San Diego to Bangor. The condition, if it exists as the Senator’s wife describes it, is de- plorable. We may allow perhaps for a little natural exaggeration. | But drinking for the rich, the well- \ to-do, and even the man of moder-| ate means has become something of | a “parlor trick” since its inhibition, May men, one might almost say the| average man, considers he is com-!

And the rest of the country is no better than it should be in this regard.

MR. HAYNES ERUPTS A GREAT BROMIDE Prohibition Commissioner Haynes says that men who have a high standing both in official and private life are greater offenders against the prohibition law “than those of whom society exects less.” Mr. Haynes says they “sanction and participate in the illegal traf- fic . although they would not knowingly wink at the violation of any other statute.” The commissioner what eve bition repeats only tybody knows.

I married with the best intentions in the world. I wanted to.make her happy, and be- fore God I'm going to do it.” Crisswell said he was 30 years old. His mother-in-law, however, says he is 45, “if he's a day Crisswell gave his age as 30 and that of his bride as 18 when a mar- riage license was issued them in Har- din. * The bride tearfully insists her place is with her husband. pa AE SE Coal Mine Projected POWELL, Wyo., April 10.—That the Belcher coal| mine three and one- half miles north of Garland has been taken over on terms of a long-time lease by “J. A. Johnson, an experi- that enced mine operator of the Fromberg’ country, and that it is to be operated as a commercial raflroad mine is an {tem of information that will be of much interest to people interested in the industrial development of the Shoshone valley. Mr. Johnson will build gradually to his goal of making of the Belcher Property a large producing mine that will add materially to the in- dustries of the Shoshone valley, but to begin witha spur of tragk {s to be lald to connect the mine with the Burlington railroad only a half mile away from the mouth of the mine For Finer texture and Larger volume in the baked goods KG 9) BAK Ounces for (more than a pound and a half? for a quarter) WHY PAY WAR PRICES?

Mr. Johnson will bring several families of miners to jassist him with ihis plans, and as the business increase more will be coming in until eventually it is ex- pected that the Belcher property will have a payroll] that will be a con- siderable asset to the valley. The fact that the mine is on a state high- way, between Deaver and Garland, makes the property valuable also as & wagon mine. Mr. Blesemer and Mr. Wilcox have been operating the mine for a considerable time and announce that as thelr working of the property progressed, the vein of coal became | thicker and the quality appeared to | grow better—enough so as to attract the attention of experienced mining men. _ Double Track U.
