Register complaints before & o'clock America’s Playground Mrs. S. E. Phelps, of South Darbin street, has returned from trip to Florida, She left Casper early in September for Moli Illinois. From there, accompanied by a brother, the journey was made by automobile, which afforded an ex- cellent opportunity for observation going and returning as ell as during the stay in Plorida. Mrs. Phelps admits being much in love with the tropical wonderland, but more than happy to be home again to enjoy the climate of sunny Wyo- ming, which seems all the more attractive, after the continued rain and cold of the east and the torrid heat and glamour of the southland. Regardless of the mass that has been written and spoken, the half has not been told about the mad rush after wealth and pleasure in the world’s winter playground. Many find both, but probably the majority find neither. In her own language, “living conditions of labor en masse reminds one of squirming angleworms in a fisherman's bait can, while the millionaire pleasure seekers find a kaleido. copic yariety of amusement and entertainment in palatial and paradisical surroundings. Almost any kind of a story told ubout Florida may be credible, and credited as to the partic- ular tale unfo , to the viewpoint of the narrator, like the iption of the elephant, given by the three blind me.” lyery city, town, village and hamlet in Florida has adopted me high-sounding slogan, You see and hear them everywhere, In further interesting observations Mrs. Phelps says: “Flor- da may be, and in fact is, the tropical wonderland, but to me Casper is the wonder of Wyoming, to which may be fitted or all of these slogans: “The Home of a des nted Community,” “The Comfortable Country,’ “The Oupstone of Competency,” “The Derrick of Delight,” “The Gusher of Gladness,” “The Pool of Prosperity,” “The Propeller The Marvel to Many oils the world and speeds up the wheels of indus- Oil Right!” And such is the -verdict of a western woman whose world is Well woyen into.the awarp.and woof of the west ' The Only Pleasure The masses think of pleasure in terms of moving pictures, Jack Dempsey, ice cream soda and funny papers, but the wise know that the only pleasures of any importance are the pleas- ures of the mind. And the pleasures of the mind turn chiefly on the powers of the mind. Be se of this our happiness de- pends to a great degree upon what we are, upon our individ- uality, while our lot or destiny is taken to mean only what we haye, our reputation. This is why Goethe says that every man, whether he occupies a low position in life, or emerges as its victor, testifies to personality as the greatest factor in happi- ness. An intellectual man in complete solitude has excellent entertainment in his own thoughts and fancies, while no umount of diversity or social pleasure, theaters, excursions aud amusements, can ward off boredom from a dullard, \ good, temperate, gentle character can be happy in needy circumstances, while a coyetous, envious and malicious man, even if he be the richest in the world, goes miserable. And to the one who has the constant delight of a special individual- ity, with a high degree of intellect, most of the pleasurgs which are run after by the ordinary man are simply superfluous; they are even a trouble and a burden, The kind-hearted gentle- man who offers to sell you the “Secret of Success and Hap- piness” in five volumes at one dollar down and so much per week can only rehash what wise men have been saying for centuries. The early Greeks taught that the first and most es- ential element in our life’s happiness is what we are—our per- onality of Pe “ per \ quiet and cheerful temperament, happiness in the en- yyment of a perfectly sound physique, an intellect, lively, penet nd seeing things as they are, a moderate and nd therefore a good conscience—these are priv o rank or wealth can make up for or repla In Terms of the Dead On the other side of the Atlantic men in official position in the various countries t owe us money have little or noth- ing to say about our insistence that the debts shall be paid to the last cent, but the press and the non-official people say things pretty freely and some of their saying re barbed. A conservative newspaper in England suggests that if war debts are to be paid, payments should be made in terms of the dead. France, it says, lost 1,600,000 soldiers; England lost 900,000 soldiers, and the United States 100,000 soldiers, Lt gues that all these men were killed in fighting for a common cause, Then the newspaper, by some means of reckoning which we know not, declares that a Frenchman, living is worth 500 to his country; that an Englishman, living, is worth 00 to his country, and that an American, living, is worth 4,000 to his country Then, by a simple process of multiplication, it is figured that in terms of the dead on the field of battle and of disease n the hospitals, France lost so ma billions of dollars, Eng- r billions, and the United States so many millions. rhe result of the reasoning and the figuring is the conclusion that the United States owes money today to Great Britain and to France There is something uncanny in this method of arriving t a conclusion, something ghastly, mayhap, but nevertheless » is something like logic in it. At any rate, it helps us to rstand better the feeling of Great Britain and the coun tries that were allied with it in the war—a feeling that we haye no sentiment in us and the Uncle Sam bears a marked resem blance to another “Uncle” who frequently is seen standing on the sidewalks in the shadow of the sign of the three golden 1 Embalming Activities ( ins imbibing bootleg Hquor are drinking formalde. ordinarily used to embalm the dead, and are gradually r pickling themselves.

They will invest thelr money in any in- ternal loan but will not invest in any foreign enterprise. Any polit!- cal party that tries to impose taxes nm the French people will be 2 in twenty-four hours. he European nations will never pay the principal of their war debts to the United States because it !s an economic Impossibility. What corporation tn America would agree to pay a million dollars a year for sixty-nine years? The sooner this fact {s recognized in Washington and the United States government cancels the foreign debts and says ‘forget it.’ the better it will be for this country as well as Europe. To hold nations in bondage to pay a huge sum of money every year is to encourage war rather than to promote peace. “France has caused a feeling of resentment in official circles in Washington by devoting the money loaned to her by the United States to the Riff War in Morocco, and fn granting leans to Poland and Czecho- slovakia to enable those smaller re- publics to maintain large standing armies and equip thelr soldiers. Ger- many does not intend to pay her debt to the United States but her financial leaders are smarter than the French and can make. a better bluff. The result wil] be the same. “The French people are in com- plete revolt against their political leaders and it would take but Ittle to consummate a revolution, The same political leadership, has held power in combination with the fi- nancial group too long. The French people, without regard to class, blame these combinations for the disastrous. Russian and Balkan bonds; and for the misrepresenta- tion of the economic resulta. in France to be obtained from the Ger- man reparations.” Brisbane's Break In a recent issue of the New York American Arthur Brisbane gave, ut- terance to there statements; “The American tariff on sugar is ruining Cuba, a friendly neighbor to which we owe, at least, friendship and decent treatment. “Cuba's commercial balance of trade with the United States has fal- len in the last year from $167,000,000 to $85,000,000. “Cuba, with commercial generos- ity, continues buying in our markets while we, with our cut-throat sugar tariff, are doing all we can to strangle the proseprity of Cuba. “The tax we inflict on .Cuban “ugar amounts to more than one hundred per cent. “One hundred and seven pounds of raw sugar make one hundred pounds of granulated sugar. It corta about one cent a pound to make raw sugar into white sugar, The Cuban sugar grower, after paying freight, light erage, warehouse, railway tax on in- dustrial process and other costs, gets less than one half a cent a pound} for the raw sugar refined and re- tailed. here at six cents. “Under such conditions the Cuban grower cannot live. Leaving out any question of decency it is against the Interert of this country to destroy Cuba's sugar industry. A little while ago Americans were eagerly buying for $25 a bag of sugar that can be bought now for $5 to $6. “Unless housewives want to see the price of sugar go up again they will do well to lay in a supply and help get rid of the present surplus.” If that is the sort of econimist which A Brisbane is, the less he has to say on economic subje the better it will be for his reputa- tion in that ne. Who before ever thought that any country was com: mitting an economic or other crime by decreasing {ts balance of trade in favor of another country? The effort bas always been to increase the balance of trade in our favo The abstract of the United States for 1923 shows that the balance of trade during the time from 1910 to 1923, inclusive, has been greatly in Cuba's favor, Some of the time we have bought of her about twice as much as she has bought of us. And how has Cuba favored the United States in other ways, as compared with Spain and other nations? She has favored them by her patronage wherever possible in preference to this country. She has been inclined to patronize Spain, from whose tyranny we rescued her, father than to patronize this coun try. The United States has given Cu ban sugar and other Cuban products @ special reduction In duties to the amount of 20 per cent. That has per- mitted Cuban sugar, cigars and oth er products of tobacco, her principal exportable products, to come in at rates of duty one-fifth lower than is paid by other countries, Iutoesn't look ag if we had dealt very harshly with Cuba. No government !s organized to protect and build up the industries of another country, that duty de volves upon the country itself, Hav- ing freed Cuba and placed her on her feet, {t fs not incumbent upon us to wet-nurse her through her en- tire future existence. It fs the duty of this government to develop its own sugar industry, along with all other industries.

Sugar would not be so low in priceb ut for our do- be so low in price but for our do- that point. The consumers of the United States benefit from the low prices. Does Mr. Brisbane want the: to do otherwise That can be bro’ about by lowering or abolishing th: duties on sugar and destroying the sugar industry of the United States —a result which would inevitably follow. Mr. Brisbane speaks of our having had to pay $25 a bag for sugar, while it now can be bought for $5 or $6 a bag. Yes and we paid that price under a much lower tariff. As a matter of fa we made the Cu- bans and a fe New York gamb- lers rich by the exorbitant prices which we had to pay for ‘sugar at that time. We can hardly think un- der the circumstances that the peo: ple of this country will feel. any great amount of sympathy for the Cubans beca of thelr present plight, as Mr. Brisbane so touching ly describes it, But is Mr. Brisbane thinking abont the Cubans at all? Does it happen that he owns an interest in any Cu ban plantations himself, or that he has business interests closely iden. tified with men who do own them? Is there a reason not apparent to the public, and what is that reason? We are quite willing to state our in- terest in the matter.

In the household of Mrs. Well ington Todd there was on!y one full-time servant, a beloved old negress with an amazing culinary ability of the sort that was the glory of the Old South, and an ob- stinate, tyrannical mind of her own. A woman came in two days a week, to launder and clean, and in winter there was a man who attended to the Todd furnace, along with others in the neighborhood. Mrs. Todd's daughters had to wait on them- selves. Naturally, ‘then, Laurel's com- posure was disturbed when she faced the array of servants lined up, waiting to do her bidding, when she arrived at Harwood house from the lodge. Louls, the stiffly cere monious butler, presented them one by one. Of course, Henry, the chauffeur, Joseph, footman. madame’s maid. Burnham, the m ter's valet. Lena, the cook—a buxom Frenchwoman from Lorraine. Jane, house and scullery maid. Walter. gardener and furnaceman. “I hope you will Uke your new mistress,” she smiled, supposing that she must say something, “Iam gure we will love madame,” Louis replied. How awkward she felt, and how annoyed she was that she felt awk- ward. “I would like to go io my room, Ella." She could think of nothing else to say. “I have laid out madame's dresses and things,” Ella announced, when they were in the room. “If you will just let me know your prefer- ences. . .. The time you like to be awakened, the temperature you prefer for your bath... ."" “I will take that up with you later, Ella, Iam fatiguéd now.” The maid brought out a loung- if robe, and was standing, wait- ing, before Laurel had the pres: ence to say, “No, not just now. I_wish to go over the house. I will not need you, however.” It was irritating to be anticipated. Her own suite -consisted of a sitting-room, bedroom, dressing cabi- net and bath. It was connected with Noble Harwood’s ‘‘den" by a door that led off the sitting-room. She formed an immediate dislike i the color scheme and reso:ved to have it changed immediately— while they were on the honeymoon. The furnishings weren't to her taste, either. She supposed they were the choice of the first Mrs. Harwood. She wandered from room to room, vague ideas of changes that ought to be made forming in her mind. The most pleasant’ room in the house, she thought, because of ar- rangement and the view afforded by its windows, was that occupled by Marion Harwood. Laurel was in it, with the door open, when she was startled by the brisk entrance of Marion. “Why," exclaim equally as surprised, you would be here.” “Your father has some business to attend to,” Laurel explained, kindly. “I was just looking around. I think you have a lovely room.” Marion Harwood regarded her suspiciously. Did Laurel want the room for some purpose of her own? “I like it,” she said, with an effort at pleasantness. “I just dropped in for some things I forgot to take out to' auntie’s,”” she explained. Noble Harwood had sent his youngest daughter to his sister's house for the duration of this preliminary honeymoon, Laurel regretteg the incident: she was afraid that Marion, find ing her here, would think she was snooping. She hoped to be on friendly terms with this daughter of her husband who was only a year younger than she, There was little expectancy of her obtaining the Proper respect from Noble Har- wood’s other daughter, Lilah—Mrs. Joseph Lyons, six yearn o'er; or her husband's sister, Mrs. Brent Daly. She was thinking of this when she went to the side of Marion, who was now searching in the drawers of her dresser for an elusive something. “Marion, dear,” taking the other girl's hand and squeezing it lghtly “I want you to look upon me as a sister, and not as—well you know the visitor, didn't know Then you should slow poisoning. neigi kidn neys. entirely cured of the attack,” Is a Bad Back Wearing You Out?

The answer in her mind did not form itself into words. She turned to leave, feeling -ather uncomfortable. Marion looked up. “WHERE did you two go? _Every- body is curlous?” “It's a secret!” I'll bet you went to the ~apl*at.” No. ‘I think you're mean not to oh me. Everybody is asking me.” “lm one woman who can keep a secret,” Laurel laughed, leaving the room. \ Her wonderings led her to the kitchen. She wag fascinated by the equipment. ‘Mister Harwood likes to cook,” Lena confided with an air of elaborate secrecy. “What is his favorite dish?” “Well, he likes musrooms—any- thing with mushrooms. I never saw @ man who liked mushrooms so well. And he likes pastries. He says,” she used a confidential tone, “that I make the best pastries in the world.” “I wasn't too excited over the wedding to appreciate them,” Laurel smiled, winning a warming beam from the cook, The other servants were less cordial, she thought. She felt as if she were intruding when she looked into the storeroom and the butler's pantry. Laurel did not see her husband of one day until he rapped upon her door, from his ‘“‘den" at. seven o'clock, polished, immaculato, look- ing his best. “I hope you wero not lonely this afternoon,” he said, kissing her. a “You know I missed you, dear. She put all her feeling in a caress. They went down to dinner arm in arm, and she was very happy. At the table she was gay, exuber- ant, talkative, until she nctived him eyeing her gown.

Obviously the gown was the source of his displeasure “Don't you like it, dear?” “I'm afraid I don’t, Laurel. tacky She ¢olored. “I'm sorr: She wanted to cry, but bravely concealed it in her expression. ‘I would like to go over your gowns with you before we go away, dear.
