MODERNISM AND CON- VENTION Dr. Henry van Dyke points with gret to the decline of vocal sen- ence structure and conversation in he United States. ‘Lazy, unin- elligent, syncopated speech” is too evalent in America, and it seems © grow. worse even as he watches. This is not surprising when the con- litions of modern life as it is lived ere are recalled. Information nd entertainment pour in upon us py film, we do not always react in peech. Transportation has ended he isolation of communities. The need for talk seems to be percept- bly diminished, and the idea of alk as a pleasure has become some- what modified in a day when pleas- re can be so cheaply and easily had vithout the necessity for helping to preate it, Of course this is an unfertunate evelopment. Conversation—which nay safely be considered an im- portant aid to our thinking—is fter all irreplacable. It represents n inter-play of minds. If the ninds are capable of improvement they will be developed by such an ercise. Personality and life in eneral will be richer as a result. The cinema and the printed page cannot wholly take the place of alk. They are transmitting agen- ies merely; conve: on is two- idered. In so far as they com- ete with conversation—and ap- Parently they are competing with it they will steal something very iprecious and full of color from life. This theft is what Dr. van Dyke has seen. The age which has sus- tained the loss of conversation may be little affected by a sermon. But there are people who feel the need to discuss, to question and to com pare note that conversation and its lar guage are worth saving.

The significant thing is that in certain regions, such | as Buffalo, the opinion is expressed | + \that the peak of the demand for labor has been reached, and in the iron and steel industry throughout | the country there is talk that the April production was as high as may be expeced for the present. By way of confirmation it is pointed out that there has been a marked de- cline during the last six weeks in several branches of the iron and steel trade. In the textile indus- tries there has also been a slight/ falling off, and the building trades, have received a check, though this is due more to local troubles than to a general decline in the demand} |for new construction. The only real shortage appears All states re- port disquietude among the farmers the prospects of obtaining! enough hands to harvest the crops. | Although this cry is raised almost | every it is more widespread today than it was in 1922 or 1921.! Even the South, which has only) spasmodically been afflicted with a |shortage of farm labor, is complain-} ing loudly, owing in part to the! year, | northward migration of so many negroes. It is probable that as the summer progresses this shortage will become more acute. | | The temptation to use this tem- |porary shortage of labor as an ar- gument for letting down the immi- |gration bars is obvious. What the | advocates of such a policy forget, |however, is that three years ago there were millions of unemployed in this country, and that as soon as |the present expansion is over there | will once more be hundreds of thou sands out of work. The present abnormal demand naturally is hard on those industries which com- | petition is most acute, but it con- |tains a remedy within itself in the steadily increasing wages in certain trades. They are sure to bring about a sort of buyers’ strike, with |an ultimate return to more normal |conditions. Unless the signs of the |times are misleading, the industries |of the country as a whole will not |long be suffering from a shortage of labor. in BRITISH RESPONSIBILITY | IN THE RUHR | “Desirable as it is that a general| reparation conference should meet! |with Great Britain and Germany| | both present, it is important to rea-| lize the price that M. Poincare de- mands in payment. He asks Great Britain to urge Germany to give up| passive resistance. If Great Britain did this she would assume a heavy and possibly impracticable moral responsibility. For Great Britain would in effect} be guaranteeing to Germany the liberation of the Ruhr. Great Brit- ain would in effect be promising Germany a definite ending of the occupation. But how can Great Britain make such an engagement} with Germany unless she first se- cures a promise from France? “Yt” is unlikely, therefore that Great Britain make such an engage- ment with Germany unless she first secures a promise from France? It is unlikely, therefore that Great Britain will accept M. Poin- care’s terms as outlined. To accept them would be to start biindly up a dark road. If they are accepted) we can be pretty certain that Great Britain has exacted terms of its own from the French government. They may be private assurances in order to save M. Poincare’s face. But unless British foreign policy has suddenly and inexplicably become amateurish, Great Britain will not assume a fundamental responsibility toward Germany merely for the sake of a conference in which M. Poincare retains a free hand.

June 26— A movement is under way to protect the game of the country by enlisting the aid of sportsmen in shooting game destroying animals and birds before they have an opportunity to cause destruction during the nesting and mating season. Plans are being made to have every sportsman interested in game protection, spend some time ridding woods, fields and marsh of predatory hawks, owls, crows and magples, weasels and othera who an- nually kill ten times as much game as all gunners combined. It has been stated that the red squirrel alone will kill 200 birds a season, whie the great horned owl destroys annually covey after covey of quail, Special efforts are being made to enlist the aid of game lovers against the crow and magple, who are described as de- troying individually more birds of all kinds, more birds! eggs and young poultry tha nany other birds that ever flapped a wing.

Their principal object and purpose, was to trap.on the tributaries of the Green and also on the Snake that} flows on the other side of the Hoback. | When they reached the little frontier town of Independence, Missouri, they met another company composed of one hundred and ten men. They were rich New Englanders who had started out for the wilds beyond the Rocky Mountains to make a name for them- At a loss to know what to do they consulted with the captain of the St. Louis company and it was finally agreed that they should travel with the St. Loufs party under the condition that they should obey or- ders. After many adventures they reached Teton Basin, which was, then known as Pierre's Hole. Here some of them tired of roughing {t concluded to go home ahead of the company. They had gone only a short distance when a band of Blackfoot Indians en- gaged them in battle, Some of their bones are now among the rocks on the mountain side. “The connander of this company was one of the greatest pathfinders that ever forged his way through a wilderness, He was an active mem ber of the Rocky Mountain Fur com- pany. No swollen mountain stream or narrow shelf high up on the moun- tain ever blocked his way. He could reaf the signs of nature in the unex- plored wonderland, and also the quiet movements of unfriendly Indians, as well as those of savage beasts. “One hundred years after the events which marks the beginning of history in this region, we open the District Court of the county that bears the name of the explorer.” AUTO SERVICE CO.

SERVICE FOR CASPER PEOPLE We think we are giving Casper people good telephone service. Certainly it is as good as honest effort and modern equipment can make it. But we want it to be better. As Casper prospers our business will prosper. But the extraordinary growth of this city has required an immense investment to us. Every new telephone we install not only increases the investment by the cost of the wire and in- struments and labor but it adds to the work to be done in our central office as the new telephone adds to the daily list of calls to be handled. We are ready and willing to increase this investment because our first job is to give service and we must constantly put in more money—borrowed money, if you please—to Provide service for a rapidly increasing popu- ation. We must look into the future and spend money now for service to be rendered years from now. That’s part of our job. And every man or woman who helps provide tele- phone service in Casper is pleased to know that, month by month, we are growing with Casper and giving telephone service in con- formity with the needs and demands of Cas- per people.
