City HOosegOW
Popular When
Storm Strikes

Casper's compulsory boarding
house, better known as the city jail,
is having trouble with its winter
boarders. with the snow being
whirled about by a cold wind and
with every prospect Of a dismal
period OF bad weather ahead. that
part Of tho city's population which
is not any too DESTROYS OF earning its
own living finds II a simple and easy
ruse TO commit the helnous offense
OF becoming intoxicated, creating q
disturbance. or getting itself In.
carcerated for some other charge.
z j. r. Reilly. who has been out
on parole. looked upon "A dreary
world last night and made n de-
cision. The decision was to pay a
visit 20 his old friends in the city
hoosegow. MOI willing to walk that
far. however. he ordered the drinks
and in a short while he was In no
condition to walk. The patrole
wagon assisted him to his destlna-
ton.
o. q. Buroff. a trusty evidently
tired Of running errands. also is said
to have come in too close contact
with the -reiuvenating spirits and
to have lost his freedom when mem

Motor Meters
Missing; Man
Lands in Jail

Many Casper auto owners who
returned TO their cars after they
had parked them for a period yes
terdny found 10 their amazement
that something was lacking. 1t
was a motor meter. Maybe this
or that car owner found the meter
nesting peacefully against the
gear shift. Maybe he found It a
block away. or whatever distance
the motor meter maniac had been
able to hurl It. Maybe he didn't
find Il at all.
Harold NIfong. peaceful enough
when he is sober. but full OF old
Ned when he has been drinking.
was arrested by members OF the
police department yesterday on
the charge Of being intoxicated
and taking the said meters off of
cars. Those who watched Nifong
work found that he did not keep
the meters which he took, but
merely found satisfaction in sepa-
rating them from their established
position.

CONGESTION In SCHOOLS TO BE
PARTLY Relieved by BUILDING
ADDITIONS Near COMPLETION

with the seven-room addition to
Elk street school ready for opening
Monday, and the probability that
the new North Casper school will
be ready for occupancy at least n
week later. prospects for facilities
with which to take care of the ever
increasing school population in this
city are Frightening considerably.
There are at the present time "a
groups OF students that are attend
ing only half day sessions because
of the lack OF rooms This means
that 81 rooms are being used for 81
different classes.
When the Elk street school opens
It will have the finest kindergarten

The Elkhorn school which was
closed about five weeks ago because
the attendance dropped to four or
FIVE pupils will be reopened Monday.
Additional pupils have moved into
that community, and have asked

Robertson has been secured as the
teacher.
Central school was forced to half.
day sessions in its third grade last
week. Miss Agnes ohisen who
taught last year Mt Billings is teach
ing one section.
South Casper school is growing so
rapidly in attendance that the first,
second, third and fourth grades are
running on half days.

coming rapidly overcrowded. The
new one-room school at the town OF
Snyuer IN the SAT- Creeh heiu W"s
opened yesterday with 25 pupils.
Mrs. C. NJ. Dahl is the teacher. II

passed It will be necessary to con-
struct another room Just across the
railroad In the new town OF Salt
Creek. A four-room school in Salt
Creek proper is being built and will
be ready by December l.

New District Proposed
Extending Toward
Midwest Avenue.

Casper's great white way which
low extends from the court house
for a block and a half south on
Center street will probably be
doubled in the near future. A sug-
gestion has been made TO the city
council that a new lighting district
be created as far south as Midwest
avenue. since It is understood that
practically all tho business houses
in this part OF the city are in favor
OF having the new lights The in
staliation of the lights is charged
against the abutting property as n
special assessment.
The council held a meeting last
night with the engineers who are
working on the project Of obtaining
n greater water supply for Casper.
No definite report was made by the
engineers except in tho way OF re-
questing more than Is days In
which to mako their surveys. since
It was found that the size OF the
problem was greater than Mt first

Is GOLDENRULE
NO LONGER TAUGHT?

Has the term Courtesy of the
road lost its meaning? Have we as
a car driving nation forgotten the
Golden Rule as taught us as young
tors? 1t would seem so from evil
dences gained while driving at night.
The editor tried an experiment a few
nights g on two of the most popular
s,Iburban drives. For over an hour
he drove on these roads dimming his
Iights lust before meeting another car
over 200 ears were passed and lights
dimmed for them. But how many re-
turned the courtesy? Only four and
thew we're on small cars. 1t is true
that a few of the cars had lenses that
did not necessitate dimming. On the
Greater number, however, we're lights
so powerful that a driver from the
other direction was practically blind
ed. This is unfortunate for modern
civilization. Most of us can rememb
er when every car owner belonged to
4 great fraternity. When one car
met another there was always an ex-
change of honks or a cordial smile
and a wave of the hand. When a car
was disabled by the side of the road,
another a passing from either direc-
ton would always stop with the ques-
ton, Can l help you?" If a stranger
would stop now and ask you to help
him, you would think that he was up
to no good. So have times changed.
1t is assumed today that everyone
drives a Ear. So few are non-drivers
in the rank and file of the city, any
time you ask the price of a new car
the dealer invariably will ask you
what kind of a a you now have. Of
all the numerous accidents happening
on the country roads around at night,
most of them are directly ~traceable to
drivers blinded by strong lights

TOURISTS shot
MAN WHO ASKED TO
Borrow Tools HELD

Omaha, Neb., Sept 2O.-Mel Wer-
den of Detroit, Michigan, was bound
over to the October term of district
court at Ogallala, Neb., on a charge
of murder, while Harry Carlson of
Rockford, ILL.,, was liberated when
arraigned before a justice of the
peace at Brule in Connection with the
recent shooting of Grover Dodman,
Ogallala real estate dealer, according
to a special dispatch received from
there.
Both Werden and Carlson pleaded
not guilty. They were automobile
tourists and the shooting occurred at
Brule after Rodman is reported to
have jumped on the running board of
the tourists car some time after they
had refused him the loan of a pair of
pliers to fix his automobile lights.
Werden and Carlson said they
thought an attempt was being made
to hold them up.

When the sea birds gather on the
isles of the Pacific Northwest in
Alaska and British Columbia, in June,
the Indian follows the white-winged
flocks for his summer harvest of eggs
He takes only the first and fresh
laid clutches, allowing the later eggs
to hatch. But international law must
be rigidly observed and the migratory
birds are protected in their nesting.
There may be some excuse for the
Indian in gathering these eggs, for
his forbears did so thousands of years
ago. However, there is none for
white men or japanese, who would
sell these eggs in bakeries and res
t%aurants of the coast cities, and it is
with these nest pirates that the law
is operating most.

AUBURN FRESHIES WIN FROM TROY
Pete HassIer Stars With Tiger Rats Against State Normal

AUBURN, Ala. Oct. 26.-(Special) The Tiger Cubs triumphed over the Troy Normal football team this after noon by score of 35 to 0. Coach Newell used his first-stringers dur ing the first half. This contingent totaled 12 points. In the second half a new freshman delegation replaced those appearing with the initial kickoff. The second team to face of football than did their predeces- sors. They calculated a sum of 20 points in the third quarter.
 In this quarter Pete Hassler, for pher Ensley High star. playing at quarter, counted three points when he landed the oval through the up rights for a field goal from a very difficult angle. Hassler made his first play the feature of the day when he circled the end for 45 yards and a touchdown when play started in the second half.
 The Auburn freshies were prone to tumble, which necessarily cut the score to lower figure. Gregg, at half, led the attack for the Auburn ties and number of times was able to hit the Troy line for substantial gains. He scored two touchdowns, which was tallied by Hoffman, who crossed the end lines on two occa- sions. Stone made one touchdown. The work of Lewis, who was moved from tackle to half, featured the play of the visitors. while Feagin at end and Searcy in the line played a good game.
