. SUNDAY, MAY 11, 1924. THOUSINDS OF PEOPLE VIEW GHOOL WORK Masonic Temple Visit- ed by Throngs in Last Three Days. ~ Between 10,000 and 15,000 persons, it is estimated, viewed the school exhibit which was held at the Ma- sonic temple Thursday, Fri¢ay and Saturday of last week. The attend- ance broke all records for specta- tors at any similar exhibit ever held in Casper and the only regret of those who had charge of the ex- hibit was that it was next to im- possible to accommodate the peo- ple. Every foot of floor space was taken up and the walls were com- pletely covered with things on dis- play. It was necessary to erect acreens in the room in order that different articles might be hung on these. The exhibit would have taken many first prizes at the state fair at Douglas if work had been sub- mitted but the Casper school author- ities refrained from sending more than a few articles to the fair this year.» ‘The foregone conclurion that Cas- per would walk away with the im- pertant prizes has had in the past a tendency to discourage conpetition from other sections of the state. The extraordinary school facilities pos- sessed by Casper, together with an efficient management rarely’ to be found is responsible for this. DEMOCRATS T0 CONVENE HERE (Continued from Page One) was in .progress yesterday and a request was made of all merchants to put out the flags along the curb- stones in the business section of the city. “The matter of entertaining the visiting delegates and having Casper put forth her best foot should be a non-partisan privilege snd a pat- riotic duty,” the committee an- nouncement set forth in making this request. “Every body should decorate their place of business with flags and let visitors from over the state know that we appreciate their coming.” The convention will be called to order by Dr. J. R. Hylton, of Doug- las, chairman of the state cent committee; the delegates and the au- dience will join in singing America, an invocation will be offered by one of the delegates and the meeting will be open for the transaction of business, Program Call to order—10.00 a. m. HIGH SCHOOL BOYS — &B UJLD R # This isn’t a story of the house that Jack bullt. » It's better than that, for it tells of the auto mechanics building that Tom, Dick and Harry of the high school carpentry class are construc- ting on the corner of the high school athletic field. : With the concrete and birck work already done by paid labor, the boys are now on the job, making the place resound to the pounding of hammers and the buzz of saws, In- structor E, M, Wyatt {s foreman, on hand to see that everything is done in workmanship style, This building measures 24 by 70 feet, having stall capacity for four cars. In one end there is to be a classroom used mainly for night school classes and lectures. Tool and wash rooms are also shown in the plans. Outside provision is be- ing made for a washrack. A special feature will be the saw- tooth construction of the roof which will afford a full play of overhead EAL HOUSE light in the interior of the building. Wires netting partitions will separ- ate the car stalls, so that one group of students may work on one car, locking the stall when leaving. Under the’ guidance of a compe- tent instructor, those in the auto mechanics classes will do car re- pair work for ghe Casper public. Charge will be made only for mater- jals used, and no job will be turned out until after it has been thorough- ly inspected by the instructor and pronounced fully satisfactory. Expectations are ‘that the bulld- ing will be completed by the end of the month. Each afternoon the stu- dents in the carpentry class are busy. Boys who wish to work after school are being paid for their labor. After the final touches are put on, the auto mechanics building will stand out as a concrete example of the constructive work the school’s manual training department is teaching. MILLICENT ROGERS TIRES OF FORTUNE HUNTING HUSBAND (Continued from Page One) marry money, but picked the wrong milfionaire’s daughter. Colonel Rogers and Millicent sailed from Le Havre aboard the French ner La France. It was significant that she traveled as “and daughter.” There was no mention of the Countess Salm on the booking list. The count was able to send some money to Milan and have baggage which had been held there for; warded to Vienna. . Departure of Colonel Rogers with his daughter, figuratively speaking, under his arm, get Paris tongues wagging in reminiscence of the brief but desperately gay honeymoon of the Salms. For three months life was. just one tea dance and night club after another for the little American’ girl and her gaunt Austrian count. Friends believe they subsisted large- ly upon funds raised at hock shops as Millicent’s jewels went one by one. She had a small income of her own, scarcely enough for an Austrian nobleman's pleasures. The count for their passage ~ to Song—America. » Invocation. Address of welcome by Mayor S. K.

Those who saw the couple at the Riveria and other fashionable French watering places, where they appar- ently sought desperately to wrest happiness from the exhiliarating night life of those places, said that whatever romance existed at first had waned when the money was gone. Millicent, who bought herself a title when her parents sald she shouldn’t sound, out the dubious coronet of the house of Hoog: straeten tarnished rapidly without the aura of the wealth to which she had been accustomed. It also appeared that Millicent didn’t take naturally to the position in domestic affairs alloted by Austrian custom to the mere wife of a nobleman. And the count, fn addition to the all important dis- appointment of: not acquiring the Rogers’ money, found Millicent somewhat more independent than he had anticipated.

Cribune BURNS GLAD TO GET OUT OF “THANKLESS’ GOVERNMENT JOB By FRASER EDWARDS (United Press Staff Correspondent) WASHINGTON, May 10.—"I've done many thankless tasks, but this government job Is the worst of the lot; I’m through,” William Buras, retired director of the bureau of in- vestigation of the® department of justice, declared in an interview with the United Press tonight. “You're damned if you do and damned if you don’t in my game, the noted detective, who has brought 34 years of man hunting to an end with his resignation from the gov- ernment service and retirament from active work, said. “This is what you ‘get,” he sald, poking a pile of newspapers con- taining critical editorials, ‘‘congra- tulating” him on his resignation. “Do your Job and catch hell, The better you do it, the more you catch.” ¥ “A detective's job is to catch cri- minals,"" Burns continued, “When you catch a criminal you step on Someones toes, Naturally, you make an enemy. The bigger they are the louder they squawk and the harder they hit back. “I've been after the crooks for 34 years and I've got .more enemies than a dog has fleas. I'm used to the criticism and the attacks, but I've’ tried to be a useful member of society and can’t say that I like it any better row than when I was a green kid in vhe treasury secret ser- vice.” Burns is no longer a “green kid.” Although he does not look the years he adrits, his crisp halr is flecked with gray and his tooth brush moustache is almost white. But his irish blue eyes still hold a youthful twinkle. “I've noticed that my dectrectors do no dare to specify when \hey knock me,” he said. “I've been in- vestigated thousands of times, but they have never been able by hook or crook ‘to get a dishonest act on me. If they did it would be placard- ed over the country. “I dare anybody to point out a single unlawful, dishonest, unethical, or disgraceful act either directed or tolerated by me while I was in the department of justice. I have never played favorites and I didn’ play them/in the department.” Burns recalled the criticism direct- ed against his appointment by for- mer Attorney General Daugherty.

The court held officers in search of Hquor can invade private prem- ises without warrant. This con: troverts a decision of the U. 5S. supreme court. In a written opinion the Kansas jurists said they were convinced the higher court edict is only applicable to federal cases. The first decision reaffirmed the conviction of Dr, .E.-T. Johnson, Parsons, Kansas, physician, sen- tenced to six months for possession and transportation of Mquor. Johnson had appealed from the lower court, declaring officers searched his handbag without war: ‘\rant and in violation of his consti- tutional rights. A second decision reversed the @'strict court of Phillips county and held that officers were within thelr rights {n searching the home of John Johnson during Johnson's ab. sence. ——<$—_—_—____— Only about one inventor In every 10 secures a monetary return which will equal the cost of the invention and patent a os The famous library of the Vatican comprises about 25 spacious rooms in addition to the great hall.

WASHINGTON, May 10,—Though ten days have passed since Major Frederick L. Martin, commander of the American round-the-world flight his mechanic, Sergeant Alva , disappeared in a blinding snow storm west of Chignik, Alaska, air ‘service officials have by no means given up hope that they will eventually be found by search par- tles. Coast guard officials who have had long experience with the Alas- kan and Behring patrols have told them that {t is not uncommon for persons to be missing for weeks among the barren islands of the Aleutian archipelago and yet be found, well and safe. Barring only some accident which previously injured or killed the fly- ers, it is ther bel ef that Martin and Harvey could sustain themselves with the rations they had and the wild fe which abounds along the shores of the islands for several t. al ice conditions have pre- vented a thorough search of all the shore lines, the coast guard reports. An airplane is being rushed to Chignik aboard the cutter Bear. Alr service officials belleve that it will be able rapidly to make an ex- haustive search of the region, If the flyers are alive, they can make their location known by making smoke palls, it is sald. The coast guard cutter Unalga today was added to the list of search- ing vessels when headquarters here ordered it from its patrol of the gulf of Alaska seal reserves to Chignik where the cutter Algonquin is operating. The cutter Haida is near Attu where the three other flyers now are. It will return when they have safely reached the Siberian coast. The Bear also will aid in the hunt. The ancient Hindus excelled in surgery, some of their operations being the same as used today. =; B=.070° OS De! © | i, FET ) ks) Oe ‘O Kix =O) <=) rN Ka SPECIAL SUNDAY COMBINATION DINNER P=0 = = OF OF OD. 00 OES) eo D- 0-0.
