AS Join the Legion The are approximately two thousand veterans of the World War in Casper and vicinity. All are eligible to mem- bership in the American Legion. There is every reason in the vorld why they shoud all jooin and join while they are young and the memories of the greatest mi struggle the world has known, are yet fresh in mind. y. Vroman Post should be the largest legion post in Wyoming and therefore the st influential in’veteran help and in all good works of patriotic duty and civie righteousness. The local post is beginning a drive for membership. It is to be hoped that it goes over big; and a hundred per cent of eligibles secured. Let the legion look to its prestige. That in great things and small, they are successful in every under- taking. It may not seem so important to some now, but it will later, the good impress‘on that is made in the minds of the people. The Legion stands for the best. It is the future great influence in the public life of the nation. The one great lesson that boys learned in war, is just as valuable in peace time. It is valuable in every important ac. complishment that requires group action, team-work and co- operation. If eve man stands to his duty and does his in- dividual part in this peaceful drive, as he did in his soldier r, George W. Vroman Post, becomes the banner post the’ s The Fool-Proof System Dictatorship, both communistic and Mussolininistic are not ving to giye way to old-fashioned socialism, if they fiaally blow up, as they doubtless will. We have as far passed benevo- lent socialism as we have the on horse shay. And some of these days Europe will discover that the only sound government, effective, liberal, is constitutional, repre- sentative government. When this time ~omes there will be less talk of war and an end of dictatorships, both communistic and capitalistic. Our forefathers struck the hanpy medium back in 1787. And if Europe doesy’t follow our example it is Europe’s ows! fault. Our representative system is not copyrighted. They can use it if ‘ey went to, and if they don't want to, then let them go on envying us and trying to prosner with their yarving dictatorships, and their socialism benevolent and otherwise. The Element of Success If we are to believe the speeches they make, and the in- terviews they give the “opportunity” magazines, then there is a theory among successful men. that there is no such thing as luck in busine: that success depends solely upon hard work, diligence, foresight, thrift, superior brains and the like. It is refreshing to read what the builder of several of the world’s tallest skyscrape nd a successful man by all the popular conons, has to say about succe: “A successful man is an accident. The only element a suc- cessful man can credit himself with is concentration. This success stuff you read about in the magazines is a lot of bunk. I read of these fellows getting up early and staying late and never missing a day of work. We'll, I doubt it. The original Astor who settled in this country, by industry, thrift, and sharp trading in furs, made a small fortune and became a money lender in New Yoork. Except for accident or luck he would have doubtless passed aw and been forgotten. {t certainly was not foresight or brains which led him to lend money on a small farm on Manhattan far above what was then the city. It is told how he was very appointed when he had to take the farm for debt, and offered to sell it for the amount of the loan, but nobody would buy, Phe farm which he tried to get rid of was the foundation of the greatest, of American fortunes. And this is the f t f the great American fortunes, of the the of success, Lightning strikes bu while his less worthy ibor life-time hunting for strikes a vein which ho give u rules ne pert prospector another digging a multi-millionaire, are few successful men in whose lives chance, acci Whatever it may be called, did not play an im- t if not a leading part.

There is certain. grim humor in the remarks of one Bucharin who at one time shouted: “We have had conflicts in recent years, but never has the opposition demanded the right to submit a minority report. This shows a grave situation.” Here in capitalist ridden America minority reports are quite common both in our legislative assemblies and in our conventions, political or otherwise.

This splendid body of women {s made up of the mothers, wives, sisters and daugh- ters of Legion men, To them is due the thanks and praises of a grateful nation for the splendid work they accomplished during the World War. Their sacrifices were no less than the sacrifices of the men. in training camp and overseas, and in many instances greater thar the world can ever know. They kept the heme fires burning. They sew. ed and knit and nursed and ecoro- mized that their loved ones In uni- form might be better carad for. They were not inspired by the din of battis, the fierce charge or the eight of a fleeing enemy. It was theirs to remain at home. lonely with ach‘ng hearts and tear-wat eyes, aithuugh they forced smiles to their faces. that thelr loved ones might not worry but carry on. It is such noble women as these that go to Omaha by the thous- ands, entitled to the wamset of west- ern welcomes and all the honors that can be pald to true American womanhood. Many of them wear the little gold star, signifying that they have made the supreme sacri- fice of motherhood upon the altar of the republic. Sorrow they may as they think of the son who gave his all, proud they must be as they think of him who sleeps in conse- crated soil, Hats off when the flag goes by. And the hats off, too, whenever you meet one who wears the badge of the American Legion Auxillary.

Fitzgerald is trustee of the public library in Day- ton, member of the Dayton Law Library association, member of the Ohio State'and Montgomery County Bar associations, president of the Dayton Lawyers’ club and a mem- ber of the National Aeronautical association. Legion Men Save Buddy from Life In State Asylum A day or two ago, Nick Stensiud, an ex-service man on the Argo Oll company lease, became mental- ly deranged. _He was brought to the county hospital and became so violent that ‘1e could not be cared for there. Yesterday, his friends, legionnaires of the’ Midwest field, notified Legionnaire Fritz Ott, of the Argo company. that he was an ex-service man. Members of the George W. Vroman post were no- tified. who called Legionnaires J. L, Laughlin, regional manager, and Dr. J..M. Nolan, medical of- ficer in charge at the U. 8. V. B., and Legionnaires Samuel Chilcote, state adjutant and service officer, with offices at the U. 8. V. B. The county attorney's office had already taken steps to have this man committed to the asylum at Evanston, but Legionnaire George Weedell, county and prosecuting attorney, was called and advised that under the World War Veter- ans’ Act of 1924,, passed through the efforts of the legionnatres on the national legislative committee, this man was entitled to hospital- ization in the U. 8S. V, B. hospital at Sheridan. He accordingly stop- ped all proceedings until the nec- essary papers could be executed for sending this man. to the care of his buddies, legionnaires of the | Sheridan post and medical officers stationed at that hosr'tal. In the meantime Stensiud is being taken care of by Legionnaire Alex A, McPherson, sheriff of Natrong county. ——— a Industry, bvsiness, sheep and cattle, mining—developments in 1925 will be exhaustively covered in the Tribune-Herald industrial edition out soon.

Webster says papier-mache is “a hard and strong substance made of paper pulp mixed with glue, clay, rosin and the like.” To make it a little clearer, papier-mache matrices are a strong, heavy cardboard, used in the stereotyping department of newspapers, to make female dies of each!page of type. from which is cast the metal type cylinders which go on the press and print the pages of the newspaper you read every day. The Tribune and Herald use about a thousand of these papier mache matrices a month. They cost us 20 cents each, in ten thousand lots. After the stereotypers have cast their printing plates from these matrices they are of no further use, in a mechanical sense. However, their usefulness is not ended here. They make excellent lining for an unplastered house; they will keep all the wind out of your chicken house or garage: can be placed under carpets to keep the wind and cold from coming up under the floor; make a fine shteld for the radiator on the car; one resident on Casper Mountain roofed his cabin with them, put on a coating of tar and lived warm and happy all winter, We have any quantity of papier-mache matrices at The Trib- une office, and although they cost us 20 cents, yw. sell them to our friends for’ te Be RO Only 1@ Each Which is just about the price the city dump. Come in and it would cost to haul them out to get one or a hundred.
