Being the attorney for the Ohio Oll company for the dis trict of Wyoming, Montana and Utah has not injured him at all, it has given him a prestige in the community in which he could af. ford to take some pride. For the sake of truth in history it can be stated that it was at Lawrenceville, IL, that he was born; that he “grew up” and at- tended school in that city; that he attended the University of Chicago and finished with honors. After this can transport him to Casper, and fix the time as early in 1920, and set him to work with no danger of the work running out. Being active and. efficient, taking certain delight in associa- tion with his fellowmen Mr. Gee was sought out for membership in the Chamber of Commerce, the Kiwanis and other organizations. The community has received many benefits from his membership in these civic bodies. The success of the girls’ camp as an annual affair is largely due to the efforts of Mr. Gee. we and we pe Casper Sundap Crivune ARTHUR M. GEE ‘or the past year, during the Kiwanis has had a year.

There is another point about Mr. Gee, which ought to have a place in this brief and simple annals, but it involves his membership in the Country club and his frequent ritronage ‘thereof; whether it is envy on the part of certain other members because of golf scores, or whether Mr. Gee has not really at ained unto the higher science of the game, we have never been able to determine, so that portion of his biography is omitted.
