The record our friend Burwell made was one elec- tric washer to each family in Cas- per and in case of a large family he sold them two. That was only one thing he did in the three years he remained with the Natrona Power company. But whatever else he did, he did it equally well and left pleasant recollections with the company and the public when in 1920 he left to organize the Casper Gas Appliance company of which he is the directing spirit at this moment. You could go on and tell about ; Earle Burwell for forty days and aside Rastus, b with ee Baste Dave Dusiness with |forty nights and still leave a lot Earle G. Burwell entered. It was |UnSaid. But everybody knows what an interest he takes in the Red Cross, the Boy Scouts, the Rotary club, the Chamber of Commerce, the Literary club, Elks and’ other well known organizations in all of which he holds vice presidencies and other offices and in all of which he fs a valuable member and regular at- tendant. Why expose what everybody knows? Why not reveal the fact that he delights in a good horse race, a good boxing match, a good i |baseball game or any other good sporting event that comes along; 4 |and that when these events occur, t}he can frame the most plausible t t the colder states south and a large number of these are passing through Casper. Casperites should lock their houses when leaving for the eve- ning or for any length of time. Locking a house forces the thief :o ‘use some means of entering, some tool by which he may pry open a door or window. The method he em- ploys often enables the police to tell whether the man {s a professional or just an amateur and also often gives a clue as to the person who committed the crime. If a thing is thought to have been stolen this fact should be reported to the police dpartment at once. The quickness with which the po Nee have recently caught the men who perpetrated the Henning hold- up and also the holdup of the Pup cafe, was to a large extent due to the fact that they were notified im- / mediately. One Henning bandit was caught within 12 hours while his accomplice was known, and sur- rounding towns and cities were noti- fled to look for him. He was caught | four days later and the man who) held up the Pup cafe was caught by the police department within 24 hours. What the police departments of | the world consider the most danger- | ous criminal institution of all time | —the drug and narcotic evil—has been hammered ifn successive and successful raids by the Casper po- | lice because the department was “tipped off’ that this nefarious trade was being practiced here by | persons passing through the city. | As a result of vigilance and special effort by the police 18 dope peddlers | were jailed.

The people who are now availing themselves of the low prices which prevail in this rapidly growing new suburb will be on the road to independence. Should the bread-winner of the home be sick or laid off from work, there will still be a revenue coming in. We know it to be authentic that one party near Casper made in the last year over $400.00 net profit on two cows and sixty hens besides having all the milk, eggs and chickens they wanted to eat. The milk alone for one year using three-quarts a day at 15 cents, was $164.15. Isn’t it worth figuring out? enn ec neranmannerasamnannnn stance : | MOUNTAIN VIEW is the most rapidly growing Suburb ever put on in or adjacent to Casper. Commencing the first of June we have sold over $65,000.00 worth of lots, acres, and houses. The first house was built in MOUNTAIN VIEW the first of July, and that at present there are nearly thirty families living out there, and that each week shows several new houses under construction. We have a few choice acres left at $600.00 each or $100 alot. We have open- ed up only about 100 acres of our tract consisting of 640 acres.and there will be no more sold as cheap as the first ones put on. A new forty will soon be opened up but there will be no lots at less than $200.00 each. Call our office and some one will show you some of the best buys ever offer- ed in close, in outlying property you have ever seen.
