LONDON, Sept. 17.—(United Press.)}—House for rent! The foregoing words couldn't be sweeter if they were set to the music of Wagner or rhymned in the lilting phrases of Swinburne. England’s cities are becoming speckled over with the enchanting little signs that proclaim this, that and the other house for rent. Real estate agents are becoming polite and anxious. The tired hous wife can view dozens of houses be- fore she makes a choice, and then change her mind with the cértain knowledge that she can always ob- tain a roof to shelter her family. It is all because the English rent laws have been revised. The re- vision which has accomplished this miracle of producing vacant houses where none were vacant before is a result of the landlord's objections to the wartime rent Jaws. Under the old system a landlord might own ever so many houses and yet not have a roof over his own head. The stringent law protected the renter so thoroughly that it often left the landlord literally out in the cold. That is changed now. The land- lord, after due process of law, can evict his tenants. He could evict them under the old law, but the law's process was usually too much for the owner. Houses vacated under the new law are either gobbled up by the owners or put up for rent—at a higher rental. Still, the hous can pay the price. After the shake-up incidental to evictions raised rents and new ten- ants is ended, the house shortage will probably be more acute as well as more expensive to the renter than ever before, Meantime, the Government has stepped forward with a subsidy scheme to encourage house building. The outer fringes of London's sub- urbs have about as much old world appearance as a boom town in Okla- homa, New tiles, bricks and fresh-turned dirt provide first hand evidence that the Government's subsidy is getting houses buil eee To Bar Hashish LONDON (United Press)—Efforts are there if you yy | Philadelphia publisher for a practi-lare being made in England to have | cal plan whereby the United States|hashish—a decoction prepared from the hemp plant of India—put on the list of dangerous drugs.

CASPER CHURCHES PREACHED SUNDAY BY LOCAL PASTORS TRINITY LUTHERAN CHURCH REV. J. H. GOCKHL The resurrection of the youth of Nain (Luke 7:11-17 is a threefold re- velation of our Lord Jesus. Those people were right who, after Jesus | had awakened the young man from | the dead, exciaimed: “God hath visit- ed His people.” When prophets and apostles resurrected the dead, they were but instruments of God. Not} Young man, I say unto By His own power He gave life to the dead. Thus this) miracle reveals Jesus to be true Go with the Father. , Jesus might have healed this young man before he died. But as in the case of Lazarus He permitted the youth to die that the people might believe (John 11.15-. Believe what? “I am the Resurrection and the Life; he that believeth on Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live (John 11:25). Shortly afterward Christ by His suffering and death redeemed us from sin whose wages is death. We need no longer fear temporal death since eternal death no longer hag any power over us (Hebrews 2:14-15). Indeed, Chrii stands revealed here as the Resurrec- tion and the Life. This story also reveals Jesus to be the refuge and the helper of all who are in trouble whatsoever. His compassion upon the heart-broken widow, His healing of the sick, His rescue of the disciples upon the storming sea, His feding of the multi- tudes—all such acts of Jesus should teach us to trust Jesus when He calls: “Come unto Me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Therefore cal! WASHINGTON HIWAY FOR CASPER TRAFFIC FAVORED A letter in support of the Wash- ington highway as being the best one for Casper since {t will give this city nine months of tourist travel instead of three, has been received by Charles B. Stafford, secretary of the Casper Chamber of Commerce from Charles W. Thatcher, chief en- gineer of the Washington Highway association. “I painted Washington Highway signs over South Pass and down the Sweetwater River to Casper from Seattle, enroute to New York eight years ago,” sald Mr. Thatcher, “and again six years ago through Yellow- stone park. Since that time the Washington Highway is all graded eastward to Washington, D.C. I will have new signs painted to Cleveland, Ohio. We miss the sand hil's of Nebraska and route through the South edge of South Dakota. It is the best road across the state of South Dakota; a bridge preparing to be constructed across the Missouri. “The Washington Highway will give Casper nine months of tourist travel instead of three months as a! present. ‘This will be the natura’ route to the World’s fair at Port land. This route can be traveled longer than the Lincoln Highwa; on account of less snow.” | upon Him in the day of trouble, and He shall deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify Him, First Congregational REV. ROBERT OLLINGHAM No one will question the veracity of the statement that religion is needed today. A large and more complex world, widespread social unrest revolt against authority, nome broken down, lost respect for the church and the ministry, all this tends to outlawry and licentiousness. What is religion? It is the science of living. Guesses have been made at it. Speculation has been tried on it but religion in its purest and simp- lest meaning is the practice of living at ones best. Notwithstanding this apparent joy- ous human debauch, with rampart forced for gain, feverish rushing for pleasure and entertainment, advanc- ed civilization in the need for religion and the fact of {ts essential fitness and righteousness are sen in the somewhat sobering statements of those who are waking up to our des- perate condition that the church must ennumerate more vigorously the need for Jesus Christ and His way to live. 4d But living sclensincany ee discipline, training, selfdental, labor, effort. It means giving, doing, say- ing, being. It is not back to Christ but on to Christ. Not so much to the cross as it 1s to Gethsemane. Not so much dying a Christian as it is living a christian. CHORUS GIRL HURT AS CAR LEAPS EMBANKMENT NORTH OF SALT GREEK One girl was seriously injured and two men received minor bruises when a Maxwell roadster plunged over an embankment and into a creek just north of Salt Creek. The girl was Anne Christensen, em- ployed with the chorus of the La- voyeland theater. She is thought to have received concussion of the brain, besides a broken nose and other minor injuries. John Sullivan nd Charlies Spencer were the men n the car. They were uninjured except for a few scratches. When the car went over the em- bankment it turned completely over anding with the wheels in the air. The men were conscious and were able to knock their way through the back of the car and to get Miss Christensen to a doctor.

Politis, the representatives respectively of Italy and Greece. Hjaimer Branting of Sweden de- clared the Itallan occupation of Corfu was contrary to the provisions of the league covenant and might establish a dangerous precedent, af- fecting the prestige of the league. Lord Robert Cecil said the council had done everything it should have done in the Greco-Italian controversy and had seized upon every means to obtain a settlement, which, he added, was the great object set forth in the covenant. The council very properly had not rushed the matter but had collaborated with the con- ference of ambassadors in Paris. Lord Robert admitted that the question of the league's competency, which had been raised by Italy, was grave and could not be left unset- tled. He appealed to the league and to Italy to reach a solution which would not infringe the national pride of Italy and at the same time would leave unimpaired the author- ity of the Jeague, upon which to a great extemt he believed the future hopes of the world were centered. —— NIGHT NEWS WASHINGTON, SEPT. 17.—Sena- tors Pepper and Reed, of Pennsyl. express any preference between Mr. Coolidge and Mr. Pinchot of Pen- nsylvania for the republican nomina- tion for president, DUBLIN, Sept. 17.—-The new par- Hament will meet Wednesday.

Y Sept. 17.— (United Press.\—‘‘What clothes will I need for a week-end holiday?” a young “noveau riche” asked me ths other day. And surely this is indeed a ques- tion that should not be lightly an- swered. Week-ends are becoming quite as popular in America as they are in England and the clothes questions is one that requires care- ful consideration. In the first place, there is luggage to consider. One hesitates to carry too many cases and grips lest the hostess imagine one has come pre- pared for a long stay. Again, too many clothes give the impression that one has left nothing in the home wardrobe. A large suitcase @ small hat box and a small over- night case fitted with paraphernalis for the dresser should be adequate for thé week-end’s needs. Owing to the crushable sports hats one can dispense with the hat box. We'll presume that the week-end 1s to be spent at a country home of not too ostentatious surroundings. One sets out on the journey dressed in a smart little sports suit of tweed, jersey or the like and this settles the dress question until tea- time, when one changes to a little frock of crepe de chine or a frock suitable for tea served out on the lawn or on the porches. The type of tea-gown is far simpler than those worn et the smart places in the city, From this one changes to the din- ner gown and one should again be careful not to overdress. Gowns of the semti-evening type with a semb* lance of sleeve are always sure to be in good taste. One may wear a tiny cap sleeve or a chiffon drape of some sort, but the gown that is entirely sleeveless and over-decked in beads is conspicuously absent at the dinner hour. Unless there are other evening guests arriving for a Gance or bridge, this dress will carry one on through the evening. In advent of an evening’s party, one changes to the formal evening gown, For Morning Wear For morning wear one consults the weather. A sultry morning ne- cessitates a little frock of cotton crepe, India linen or cretonne, made on simple lnes and worn with sports shoes. In this one is ready fora game of tennis or a stroll through the neighboring woods. On AMERICAN LEGION POST MEETING THIS EVENING The George W.
