SACRIFICING OUR GIRLS.

For ten days there was held in a Denver hospital,
a young girl who could give no account of herself
sufficient Mt least to enable authorities to trace her
identity. The nespapers printed the story and her
description and in due time che was returned to her
home in Texas. So much for that particular girl.
In the effort to establish the girls identy, the hos
pital people received letters and kilograms from all
over the nation containing descriptions of local girls
who were missing. Something like 80 appeals came,
among them one from our own city. Thirteen moth
es wrote, each one of them hoping the mystery girl
was her daughter. Tragedy after tragedy was re-
vealed. Each letter or telegram contained its own
pitiful story of a broken heart at home, of vain hopes
that the unknown girl might be the girl the writer
sought.
This Is but one case. Every day, newspapers
the country over, carry accounts Of young girls miss
ing from home. 1t has almost become a national
tragedy. The stories behind disappearances of this
character more often than otherwise remain untold
and the fate of the girl is forever shrouded in mys-
terry.
thoughtful men and women have given the problem
much attention and there have been a few spasmodic
attempts to arrive at some means of lessening what
is approaching a peril to every home in the land For
no one now knows what home is to be plunged into
sorrow next. r - 3
Theories are largely vain. We all have them. But
not many of us agree. We can all agree, however,
upon one proposition that at least has a bearing on

the present situation. Under the moral teachings
and influences OF :he old fashioned home, girls were
contented. They established fer themselves a high
moral code which was zeldom broken down. Their
social relations were strict and there were TO secrets
from mothers and fathers. The mysterious disSp-
pcarancc- of 4 girl from home was OF the rares- oe-
currence. Girls we've shielded to greater extent. Their
escorts were known and approved by parents and
there was no inclination to p-omiscuous acquaintance
ship with the other sex
The status Of girls las changed. They have greater
liberty than formerly. The old influences and re-
straints have disappeared The old teachings, and the
old fashioned home are no more. While they operated
we did not have the same trouble VIC are now having
with girls straying from the fold. Possibly the old
ideas would not be effective under present day con
ditions, but they can be modified to suit the things we
have to face. A great deal of grief can be spared
US by re-establishing the old code. revised to date,
and by being pals with our girls rather than mother
and daughter with distinct and separate interests.

THANKS. FOR THEM KIND woIDs.

Editor MeCracken, of the Laramie Boomerang, on
his return from a trip through Yellowstone Park.
stopped in Casper, to remove the dust of travel and
&C. his shoes shined, and this is what he says in his
newspaper about our fair city:
eve have all heard much about Casper, the wonder
town. The writer thought he knew quite a little
about it inasmueh as he had been there as recently
as a year ago. But even in the past year it has about
doubled its size. Buildings, big buildings of seven,
eight, and ten stories are going up everywhere.
There seems to be no end of either the Standard or
Midwest refineries, and now there is a third refinery
going up, owned by the Pordueers and Refiners cor
p~oration.
There has beer some talk about Casper having felt
the press of times in view of the fact that 1900 or
1000 employees of the two big refineries had been
laid off. II this be so, one certainly can not notice
it. The stores are crowded from morning until night,
walking down one of the side streets being just as
much of a task as trying to cross a street Of a big
city, so crowded with pedestrians is every sidewalk,
Though the lobbes of the hotels are big. chairs in any
Of the hostelres are at a premium. That is Casper
Casper claims a population of 1000, and after hav-
ing given the place a good once over these figures
seem hard to be disputed. And this as a little COW
town of some 1900 people only a few years ago. Oh
is quite the thing.
