guard it is very questionable. The
influence, popularity, financial stand
ing, etc, of an appointee is very
likely to be taken into as the reason
of the appointment by those who are
enviouS, nc matter how well he is
qualified for the place, and of course
some are dissatisfied. AS remedy, a
system of examinations should be in
augurated, which should be open to
all who desire to enter. A list of say
ten questlanS in the tactics, each val
ued at ten points, should be prepared
and the applicants required without
reference to the tactic) to answer them
IN writing. The answers should be
carefully compared with the tactics
and marked their true value. The
applicant should get standing of so
or Is per cent in order to pass. By
this system the national guard would
would have well informed corps Of
nOn-commissiOned officers, and one
great cause for dissatisfaction re-
moved.

Posing as a Humorist.

1t would be an act of real christian
charity and public benefaction if
some friend in whose good judgment
Stacy Cochrane has confidence, would
take him aside and kindly, but forc-
bly, impress upon his mind the fact
that he is not humorist. 1t might
break his heart, but the sooner he dis
covers that he was not designed by
nature and temperament to play the
roll of a Shaw, Nye. Carruth, Clemens
or Lewis the better it will be for
Stacy and the public. Stacy will
probably consider this cruel, envious
and heartleSs thrust at budding
genius, but it is really written in all
seriousness and candor, AS a heavy
and logical writer Stacy ranks well,
but as humorist-.-.-Henry

Parents Take Notice.

The spring term Of school begins on
Monday next, March IL. On that day
it is expected that new class will be
organized in the first primary room
for new beginners. All who have
children to send for the first time
should have them begin promptly so
that there will be no delay in the
work. Remember that one day "be-
hind time" interferes with the work
and places the pupil at disadvantage.

South Dakota Dairymen

this city last Tuesday and Wednes-
day proved profitable to those IN at
tendance. Comparatively few men,
bers were present, but the earnestness
of those who did attend made up con-
siderable for the lack Of numbers.
Quite goodly number of the prom
inent farmers of this county were en-
thusiastic visitors and during the
meetings added their names to the
membership roll.
The opening session held Tuesday
evening in the opera house was an
interesting one. Mayor G.. j. Collier
opened the gates of the city to the
visitors and the regular program was
introduced. Several interesting pa
pers were read before the convention
and lively discussion upon various
topics was indulged in.
On Wednesday the association was
escorted to the agricultural college
and visited the various departments.
The visitors expressed themselves
highly pleased with the dairy depart
ment, especially and regretted that
Prof. Wheaton had resigned from his
position as instructor, believing that
it would prove detrimental to the
institution and retard the growth of
the dairy interests Of the state at
large.
Wednesday afternoon was occupied
in illustrating the advantages of the
"Raby Separator" and making tests of
milk. The tests and lecture being
made by A. II. Wheaton, president of
the association. This proved to be
one OF the most interesting topics
placed before the convention. r. L.

the assembly which elected many
words of praise from those present.
Wednesday evening the ladies of
The Commercial club spread an elabor-
ate banquet in the opera house in

gratitude of the members for the
generous hospitality extended by the
city and contained a clause endorsing
in strong terms the work of President

men Of the state and especially as
instructor of the dairy department of
the state agricultural college.
