NEW FIRE LIMITS
The Councils Proposed Plan to Re
duce the Fire Limits Not
Good Move for Mitchell.

The ordinance which was introduced
at the meeting of the city council the
first of this week, the purpose of which
was to reduce the fire limits within the
business district, we do not believe will
be very popular move if it is adopted.
The idea in the change of the fire limit
is to permit the erection of all kinds of
buildings within 40 feet of the alley,
west of Lawler street and east of Row
ley street. Years ago such a move
might have been just what the town
needed to. induce the erection of new
structures, but at this date, when
Mitchell is steadily building up, when
every effort is being made to increase
its business interests and to expand on
other streets, it would not be justice to
the men who have put their money into
good buildings to permit their struct-
ures to be surrounded by a lot of frame
buildings. While it is true that these
lots off Of Main streets have been idle
for number of years, there isn't any
question but what if frame buildings
were allowed to be erected on these
side streets, their presence would deter
one from putting up brick or stone
building because OF the hazardous risk.
AS an instance, should person build a
stone building across the alley and just
within the fire limits, another person
would have the right under the pro-
posed ordinance to put up a frame
building within very short distance of
stone building. Would that in all fair
ness be just to the man who had built
of stone? There isn't man who favors
the new ordinance but who will admit
the injustice of such change.

RELIEVES THE GOVERNOR
Attorney Generals Opinion as to
the Rental of the Sisseton

The question of rental of the old Sis
seton military reservation has been one
which has caused vexation to every
governor OF the state since it was do
mated to the state, writes Pierre cor
respondent. Gov. Sheldon WAS accused
Of allowing favorites to use it without
compensation to the state, and Gov,
Lee has been bothered with attempting
to keep the buildings in repair without
an appropriation for the purpose. This
year Adjt. Gen. Humphrey .ook it up
on himself to look after the property
and found party who was willing to
pay good lease price for the tract on
a term lease, and would give bond to
keep the buildings in repair, devoting
portion of the lease price to that pur-
pose. Such q lease was submitted to
the governor for his approval, and by
him submitted to the attorney general
for an opinion as TO his powers. The
attorney general in his opinion holds
that the tract is wholly under control
of the state land department. and that
department is the proper one to care
for it. This opinion will relieve the
governor from the bother of the tract
and place it in the department which
best able to care for il.

ARE ARRANGING FOR RACES.
Driving Park Club Will Have Splen.
did Events This Season, the
First Occurs in May.

The Mitchell Driving Park associa.
tion is getting in readiness for it's first
spring meeting. The track and amphi-
theatre are being put in fine condition
and other improvements are being
made. The association now owns it's
own grounds and more money will be-
expended this year in making the
grounds the finest in the state. The
first track meeting of the year will be
held on May 5, which will be in the ma
ture OF matinee. the purees or prizes
offered for which will be competed for
only by the mem bers of the association.
Considerable stock was sold by the
association last week and business men
are becoming interested in the success
OF the club. The track affords pleas
ant road for driving and the association
has adopted plan for selling Nom ber-
ship tickets, which will permit the
holder of enjoy ing the privileges OF
driving thereon. The club will cer-
talnly be in position to make sporting
matters lively in Mitchell this summer,
and the patronage offered by home
people will be a strong inducement to
have the track meetings often during
the season. A race meeting will
likely be held during the encampment of
q. a. r., on June 1921, and there is
strong talk of having another race
meeting on July 2, 3, 4, to close with q
grand celebration OF the nationsl holi-
day, in which the city will take part.

No gown can fit satisfactorily unless
the garments worn beneath are made
and fitted. with equal care. The ex-
cellent corset cover and petticoat illus-
| trated have tho merit of including no
unnecessary funess and being designed
| with direct reference to present styles.
| The corset cover IS fitted with shout
der and under-arm seams. The back is
| smooth across the shoulders, drawn in
at the waist line, the front IS gathered
| slightly ut the upper edge and drawn
| in at the waist. As shown ii is made
| of nainsook with two rows of needle-
work insertion and a finish OF beading
| through which narrow black velvet
| ribbon is run, but cambria or ine long
cloth can be substituted if desired, and
| the trimming can BIZ ipade more or less
elaborate to suit the taste. The essen.
| tial features of the design are the per-
feet simplicity and fit, and the tidiness
accomplished by the portion that OK
tends below the waist line, and which
ia not full enough to mean noticeable
increase in size. ia,
The petticoat ia out with front and
side cores AID straight back, com
bination that means perfect hanging
skirt after laundering as we'll as before,
1t is snugly fitted at the upper PORTION,
Strengthened by pointed yoke ut the
front and arranged to he drawn up at
the hack to any size desired, At the
edge of the skirt proper is attached a
narrow, straight frill, which gives adj
ditional freedom to the feet. Over
the skirt, slightly below the knees,
falls double founoe, which, as illus
trated, is half of the material, half Of
embroidered edging, the seam that
joins the two being concealed by a
band of insertion. As the model shows,
the hounce falls over the narrow frill,
but not to lis extreme edge, practical
point that is we'll 10 bear in mind.
Every woman has suffered from edges
that fray while the remainder of the
garment ia in good condition. This
simple device means that wear will fall
UPON the exposed edge and that the
narrow, plain frill will be all that it is
necessary to renew. Nainsook, CAM
brio, long cloth and fine muslin are all
suitable for white cotton skirts, taffata,
plain or striped, when it is desired in
silk, as we'll as moreen, brilliantine
add sateen. In the latter case the
lower tiounce should be piisse to give
tho best effect. and, if possible. fin
ished with q narrow pinked ruohe. The
style shown, with the embroidered
fiounce, is eminently smart for cotton
skirts, tut plain tiounce can be SUBJ
stituted if preferred, but when long
cloth or muslin are used for the skirt
proper cambria should be used for the
tiounce.
To cut this corset cover for lady of
medium size / yard of material SO
inches wide will be required; to cut
the skirt yards 36 inches wide. or 94
yards of silk q inches wide will be re-
quired.
The pattern No. 5000 is cut in sizes
for 49, 81, SO, 3S, 40 and 42-inch bust
measure.
The pettiroat pattern No. 1910 is cut
in sizes for a p, "a, 26, Is and 30-inch
waist measure.

THE RIDICULOUS oPTIMrsr.

-
There was once man who smiled
Because the day was bright;
Because he slept at night:
Because God gave him sight
To guze upon his child!
Because his little one
Gould leap and laugh and run,
Because the distant sun
Smiled on the earth, he smiled.
He smiled because the sky
Was high above his head;
Because the rose was red;
Because the past was dead
He never wondered why
The Lord had blundered SO
That all things have to go
The wrong way here below
That overarching sky.
He toiled and still WINS glad
Because the air was free;
Because he loved and she
That claimed his love and he
Shared all the JOYS they had
Because the grasses grew,
Because sweet winds blew,
Because that he could hew
And hammer, he was glad.
Because he lived he smiled
And did not look ahead
With bitterness or dread,
But nightly sought his bed
As calmly as child;
And people called him mad
For being always glad
~ With such things as he had,
And shook their heads and smiled.
