From Recent Fire

Following the fire in the Townsend building Tuesday afternoon, Harry Free began the task of erasing the marks left in his offices by the smoke. There was one cleanser which did the work and did it well—Fellows' soap, made in Casper. The small bit Mr. Free had on hand was soon exhausted.

George E. Fellows who lives in North Casper had no phone, and was not home at the time. A thorough search was made for him.

Those deputized to get Fellows' soap and nothing but, managed to find a few cans in Galles store. The entire supply was bought out and used effectively in cleaning the woodwork in the Free offices.

From now on Fellows will have a phone and will make more and more of his special soap which is gaining an excellent reputation.
