The Smile That Won

GOMETIME after the world war. an American
- hero OF that great tragedy came to Casper and
settled on a homestead not so many miles distant
that he could not live upon il and earn a livelihood
in the city.
When he had expended all Of his savings in build.
ing his house, fencing and other requirements Of the
law, he sought ard obtained employment in the
city. He worked hard on both ends of the job he
had marked ont for himself. He had a stout heart
a good nerve, a world of industry and n never fail
ing smile.
The first year or more, with him, was all outgo.
A little boy was born to gladden. the humble home
stead and later the young wife came down with
sickness. Some debts accumulated. Many other
things occurred that would have discouraged weak
er men and made them abandon their efforts and
sock an easier way of getting on with less promise
of ultimate reward. Not so our hero. He simply
smiled and went ahead.
Not long after this on a certain Saturday the
wife came to town to make a few purchases. This
task was accomplished and the goods placed in the
Ford which daily carried the young homesteader
to and return from his work. The young couple
went to obtain something to eat before they started
on the trip home.
Returning to the car there was no car where they
mad parked 1t. Someone had stolen it. 1t was bad
enough to he marooned in town all -Iight with the
baby on che homestead but the loss of the Ford
was a calamity.
The young man came to the Tribune to telephone
the county and city authorities of the loss of his
car, and while waiting for an answer to mis- tele-
phone call, sat down told these facts:
II came from Kansas a year and a half ago. I

wife has barely recovered from a sick spell, the
baby is not we'll. 1 owe a big doctor bill and i owe
some other accounts L will be unable to pay for
a long time, and on top of all this trouble some
scoundrel has gone and stole my Ford"
The young fellow looked up at the end of this
recital and smiled in spite of himself. He simply
couldn't help it. Things were SO tough with him it
was amusing.
"stick to her old top, that smile will pull you
through II the whole world goes against you,' he
was advised.
The next day the officers captured and returned
the Ford. In a few weeks the wife was herself
again, the baby grew strong and healthy, crops re-
turned some revenue, proof was completed on the
homestead, and things took on a more rosy hue for
the world war hero the homestead hero, and the
hero who could smile in the face of discourage.
ments.
The smile and the good nature back of it, and the
other good qualities of the fellow pulled him through
and he is now on the high road TO prosperity in
his same old FORD.

Theodore Roosevelt

TO-DAY marks the anniversary OF the birth OF one
l. of Americas greatest sons, Theodore Roosevelt.
In childhood and early youth he was fran OF con
stitution but of undaunted spirit. Having obtained
a liberal education he devoted some years TO lie IN
the omen upon the theory that pure air, sunshine
and outdoor exercise would build up q strong physi-
que his birth and earlier environment had denied
him. His experiment was entirely successful and
tbc wears he spent on "a North Dakota ranch made
Of him a robust and perfect specinenNof MANHOOD
md stored in him the health and vigor that carried
him over many strenuous ensuing years.
OF his life much has been written of the years
covered by his march from the cradle to the grave.
He seemed predestined to play an important part
in the world. and of the tasks apparently marked
out for him there were none undone wnen ne en-
tered upon his eternal sleep.
Few public men were so versatile as he, when tue
activities, in all of which he excelled, are taken
into account. Author, statesman, soldier, explorer,
naturalist. peace maker, patriot. These cover a
large and varied list.
His personality was scarcely less striking than
his career. His temperament nervous and his man
ner vivacious. His most notable mental character
jstics were. an extraordinary q~uickness of appre'
bension, n keen interest in every subject which had
TO do with human progress, and a wlolesouled
scorn of the insincere.
AS an executive, he was distinguished for his re
sourcefulness in devising, and his boldhess in at
tempting new methods of accomplishing results for
which others had struggled in vein over wen.beaten
paths, and his tireless pursuit OF an end upon
which he had once fixed his purpose.
Like many men of masterful methods he was al
ternately loved and hated, as tickle public opinion
cbbed ard flowed over the shore of events.
In his final years when he no longer occupied
public office and had ceased to be the storm cen
ter of politics, animosities were swept away and
forgotten. In these years as he devoted his tireless
energies to the welfare of his country and the bet
.terment of conditions for the human family, love
for him grew to a thing almost universal
When he passed the end was peaceful. His life's
work done, like a tired child he fell asleep.
In the worlds estimate he was the greatest Amer
lean of modern times.
America ranks him in the order of her four great
presidents Washington, Lincoln, Mckinley and
Roosevelt.
His life will furnish inspiration for American
youth for many generations to come. His tomb
will serve as the Mecca of patriotism as long as
the republic survives.

The Mex Step

on THE DAY that the president signs his name
" TO a ship subsidy bill passed by congress-. n
program of real constructiyeness will be one stem
nearer completion. =
A protective tariff, easily adjusted and which
meets with the approval of farmer and manufac-
turer, u tax law which in the near future may re
quire some further attention, a budget law which
regulates the consumption of funds which the tax
and tariff laws produce, a reorganized and con.
solidated veterans bureau, a refunding commits
sion to take care of the debts owing TO Uncle Sam.
a good roads law which will provide new arteries of
internal trade and communication, a thoroughly
renovatedpostald department, a law for the develop
ment and regulation of national water power, an
immigration law which will keep loafers and nm
desirables from the building, q law regulating
grain exchanges, provision for cooperative market
ing by farmers, a bureau for the betterment of the
working conditions for women, and many other fea.
lures which come under the head of all modern i'm
provements as adopted by good builders make up
the structure.
1t is quite probable that six months ago the shin
measure would have had no easy shedding through
congress, but the intervening months have borne
good fruit. The attitude of middle west and west
ern congressman has recorded a decided change in
favor of il. Indeed a New York newspaper which
has been, because of its intensity British slant, a
bitter opponent of ship subsidy, only recently made
the reluctant statement that there are too many
middle west and western senator's and congressman
who are ready to accept the ship subsidy now for
any opposing element to make much ~headway."
Probably the greatest incentive to support the bill
came when it was publicly shown up on the floor
of the senate how viciously Great Britain was
swinging her axe in the dark to scuttle the Ameri-
can merchant marine. The reaction TO this was so
pronounced that it is reported the correspondent of
the London Post warned the British reading pub
lie that they had best lay off a bit as the Americans
were getting mad and more determined than ever
to put the ship subsidy bill through. But the warn
ing came too late.
In addition, the official figures showing the
slump in the American and the gain in British car
rying trade, were sufficient to convince this coun-
try that if we were to maintain a marine we must
aid it just as practically every country in Europe
is doing, by government grants. that If We were not
in a position to carry the bulk of our own goods in
our own ships, the foreign competitors would soon
work us into a position where our export trade
would be curtailed 10 a dangerous minimum.

noticeable and a higher quality Of subjects were
pictured and photography OF greater excellence
was produced Former stars who had figured in
unsavory e~seapades were sent to the rsar OF dis
pensed with altogether. so that screen filth now Is
nothing Iaore than a memory.
1t may be said for the moving picture industry
that the lesson went home and went home
and that the sincere effort put forth for
better things is now bearing fruit.
American producers are now giving picture pa
irons n very high grade of programs throughout
the country. There are no longer Objectionable
scenes, comedy is clean and OF a higher order than
the old sIapstick antics Of village cutups. The
world has been ransacked Tor real material from
which to make pictures in both educational and
dramatic features and entire success has crowned
the efforts OF producers.
Il is very satisfactory TO observe the prompt re-
Spouse TO the demand for better and cleaner things
picture makers have shown in their important in

The Reform in Pictures

EAR or more ago the American public awak-
q ened to the fact that it was being fed through
the motion picture theaters with a lot of sugges-
ton and n~astiness unfit to be absorbed by the
minds of the c~ountry's rising generation.
The press, the pulpit, the mothers clubs and
most other powers for decency and righteousness
took up the cry at once for cleaner and better pic
lures.
The defense of the producers, at the time, was
that they were simply answering what they con-
ceived to be the public demand of their patrons.
In the ensuing discussions all interests took part
and in the public morals phase that developed all
finally agreed to its desirability and the necessity
for drastic reform.
An unfortunate feature at the then stage of
proceedings was the breaking of numerous scandals
involving screen artists, directors, producers and
others in the several picture centers of the coun-
try until Hollywood became a byword and a re-
preach.
Producers were quick to catch the trend of public
sentiment for decency. They dropped all forms of
apology in extenuation for the filth they had been
feeding the public. and set about earnestly cleaning
hou e. As a first step, a man in whom the general
public had supreme confidence was placed at the
