WYOMING'S NATIONAL |} GUARD ENCAMPMENT, { Not alone because there are over 4one thousand officers and enlisted men present at the national guard encampment now in progress at Ft. Russell, making it the largest in the ‘history of Wyoming, is this camp the finest that the state has ever known. Other factors contributing dust as greatly are: What the young men who com- prise the 115th and 116th cavalry regiments areas fine a representa- tion of sterling young manhood as cofild be found anywhere. That the morale of these soldiers 4s excellent. That the public at large has this year sensed the great responsibility that has fallen on the shoulders of the national guard of ‘the country following the slashing of the size of our regular army to a point which renders none too safe our national defense. All these factors-eontributing to the success of the Wyoming en- campment are accepted with much enthusiasm, but if we were to select the most important it would be the Jast; namely, the attitude of the public. Everyone who follows our na- tional affairs at all can not help realizing the precarigus situation which has resulted from congress’ action in reducing the size of our army to a point which could hardly be expected to thwart the advance of the enemy in case another war camé upon us as suddenly as did the last. In fact, the size of our regular army today, according to military authorities, is all but in- sufficient to even form a nucleus around which to build in reasonable time an army of ample size and ef- in the event of a nation- To be sure, if in the event of another war, our friend the enemy 1d be obliging enough to suspend hostilities until we had 1 of time in which to build up my which would put on ever for apprehen But, unfortunately, courte ered in times of war and any ad- vances which our adversary might make before we were able to pre- for } ld probably meet of course, the hope of all| of us that some kind of an inter-| tionship or some other] that will bring 0 closer Id only recently witnessed. "|of the drastic reduction of its size, -|he did mean that if we are to se- with him, there | such | s neither expected nor of-| Certain though many of us are that such a day will come, we must ad- mit that as yet it is only a hope that until such a state of security is_ac- tually realized there seems no other recourse than to accept the doctrine of the survival of the fittest. Such being the case, we must be fit. During his recent visit to Wyo- ming, Major General Morton, third or fourth highest ranking general in the American army of today, when asked what he thought of the national guard, said. “Let me tell you, sir, the national guard is all the army we have to- day.” The distinguished general did not mean to slight the quality of our standing army, but knowing as he does how small it is and how its ef- fectiveness has been shorn because cure any degree of safety from a military source, that it must be from the federally recognized na- tional guard, That well expresses the situation as it is today, and it is gratifying, therefore, to learn that the people of’ this state and practically every other state in the union are taking an interest in the national guard such as they have never done ke- fore. Included in the troops at the Cheyenne encampment, in addition to the Wyoming regiment, is a regi- ment comprised of Idaho and Utah soldiers and a machine gun troup from Washington. Heading the list of Wyoming's officers are Adjutant General Walter F, Davis, Colonel R. S. Mentzer, Lieutenant Colonel R, L. Esmay, Major Leech, Major} Tonkin and Major Lonabaugh. | HYPNOTISM BY RADIO The reported successful demon- stration of hynotism by wireless on a subject ten miles away conjures up suggestive possibilities of radio development. Is this the first step | in the exploration of a new field of | aerial communication? A doctor on land is now able to/| prescribe for a patient at sea. If) radio is also to serve the uses of hynotism and mental healing, if it| is to be employed as a vehicle for mesmeric influences and psychic phenomena and what not, it will lend itself to an extension which may well heighten public interest. Broadcasting concerts and speeches, market reports and cur- rent news represents only the con- ventional utilization of the facili- ties of radio, It is apparently full of a number of undeveloped re- sources at which the hypnotic ex- periment does more than hint, It is possible that a citizen taking up the the receiver in the quiet of his home may summon spirits from the vasty ether of a strange and uncanny sort. What might happen to a man casually listening in on a hypno- tist’s demonstration or on a spirit- ualistic seance and receiving a mes- sage broadcast by a medium direct t from the spirit world? Wireless, it would seem, has only begun to} show what it is destined eventually to do to amuse, instruct and mysti- fy man. WHAT IS JUSTICE? I. B. Hall, convicted of murder, escaped from a convict gang in Georgia after serving several years of a life sentence. He went to Florida and there with his wife and family under the name of J. R.| Forrester, becoming a substantial| and respected citizen. Ten years} passed. His daughter grew to} womanhood and was courted by a young man of the community. The young man decided that he wanted to marry the girl, whereupon Hall took him into his confidence be- cause he did not want him to marry his daughter without knowing the truth, The young man not only broke the engagement but notified the au- thorities that Forrester was in re- ality I. B. Hall. Today Hall is back in prison. “I would rather spend the rest of my life on the gang than have my daughter marry such a man,” he said. There is a problem for those who like to ponder on questions of jus- tice.—Danville Commercial-News. TODAY'S ANNIVERSARIES 1796—Robert Burns, Scotland's famous poet, died at Dum- fries.

Charplot of Denver, in connection with the disapearance of $15,000 in Liberty bonds which had been put to the credit of the town of Rock Springs as security for the deposit of city funds, ‘The loss of the bonds was discovered in January, 1920, when the recent mayor, Harry C. Parker, took office as city treasurer. The bonds had been placed in the city vault. ‘Later the safe was taken in on an exchange by Charpiot, who was a dealer in safes, and the sup- position is thet the bonds were shipped to Denver in the old safe and appropriated by Charplot. About six months ago Charpiot's wife cashed one bond for $10,000 and was imme- arrested. Charplot claims ‘a men" sold him the bonds at at discount, and that he is inno- cent in the transaction. The case caused considerable inter- est and action was brought by the First National bank against the city for recovery of the bonds, but the sult was later dismissed and the bonds traced to Denver. Bank offl- cals claim that the bonds were shipped to Denver in the old safe which was taken in exchange, and that Charplot must have made the discovery. se is to come before the strict court at Denver TREATY TERMS AND WILL SIGN LAUSANNE, uly 20—(By The Asso- ciated Press)—Soviet Russia notified @ Near East -conference that she ccepts the convention for control of the Turkish straits negotiated here and will sign the protocol at Constan- tinople within the next three weeks.

But— WHERE WILL YOU SLEEP? Do you always make your reservations in advance? This is the crowded season in all hotels, A telephone message quickly settles the point. You don't wait for a re- ply to your wire but you specify exactly what you want by telephone, get your answer and start on the trip with full as- surance that you will have a comfortable night. A station-to-station call will suffice for this conversation, That cuts the cost down by twenty-five per cent.

This “‘wrath” of Almighty God against the na- tions is revealed in the terrible events com- mencing with the World War, “but the end is not yet,” for the Scriptures unequivoally tes- tify that the fierceness of His anger must burn against present evil systems until all be consumed. THIS NATIONAL judgment is but the prelude to the “times of restitution spoken by the mouth of all the Holy Prophets since the world began,” during which every individual will be placed on trial for life or death.
