From Bell Fourche "Bee.")
The little informal dancing
parties given in the Gayety from
time 10 time are becoming i'm
mensely popular. The reason,
possibly, is the innovations in
troduced by some of the boys.
Dave Broomfield has declared
that "Sitiing our a waltz is now
more fashionable than dancing,
the only difference being you SIT
instead of dance. The man S
right arm is around the girls
waist, while his left hand hold
her right. Her left hand is
placed upon his shoulders, while
her head rests lovingly on his
manly "buzzum" and all they
have 10 do is 10 sit and listen 10
The music. Now tina, is something
like it. We have always regard.
ed it nuisance to gallop a mile
or two in order to get good hug.
A room full of people. sitting
around on sofas, hugging to music
is more gratifying. This will give
the old rheumatic brethren another
chance to waltz. Most men waltz
not for the dance, but for the
position, and while a man loses
his appetite for dancing he has
got to get mighty old before he
loses his appetite for hugglns 8

ways up-to-date and this new
dance is bound to be popular here
for we have not found a man who
il not willing to blow in dollar
on the deal. Yet many people
wonder why We don't waltz.

The State Pension Board.

There is now 100000 apprcpri-
ated to the pension fund and yet
notwithstanding the vast sum that
is at their disposal, the State pen
sion boald requires the county
pension board to insert certain notices
in county newspapers and then
refuses to pay for the notices, leaving
the county boards to settle with the
newspapers the best way they can'
which means that the members OF
the latter board have to pay the
money out of their own pockets
For a big and prosperous common
wealth South Carolina, or those who
administer her government, has some
strangely niggardly ways.

The freaks of IN insane Mormon
elder, an account Of whose doings is
giyen in this Issue, would be with
est special significance did it not
foreibly remind us Of The fact that
thsses, eriiissaries of the DANTE
church are Keeping everlastingly at it
in their work of proselyting our peo-
pie to their way of thinking.
Like other problems that are con-
stantlg with us the ubiquitous Nor
man oder will not down and the
question of what to do with him is
one that is difficult Of solution. AS
q free, independent and liberty
loving nation our people regard with
sbhorrenee anything taking the
form of religious persecution. And
yet when the tenets of sect are in
direct conflict with our ideas of law,
morality and decency it seems that
there should be some way to put a
stop to the incursions of its disciples.
Psradoxical as it may seem, upon
their weakness these Mormon "mis-
sionariesn rely as their strength.
Their work is done quietly and sys-
timatically along the lines of least
resistance. They avoid controversy
or disputation and thus inject the
virus Of their poison where it may do
its deadly work with little chance
Tor an antidote. And, however pain
full the truth may be. the Mormons
afe securing foot hold, not only in
this county, but in our whole State.
It's only few years ago that a
Mormon conference WAS held in the
! city of Charleston and at that con-
. ference, we are told, there were TO
eless thsn fifty elders who were in
Esnth Carolina for the dissemina-
ticn Of their doctrine. At this time
we do not doubt that the number is
even greater.
Without entering into a discus
sion of the Mormon religion the fact
alone that it allows and even en-
courages polygamy should be an
insuperabls barrier to its spread
in this State. South Carolina
stands second to none. in her
reference for woman, bearing the
proud distinction standing alone
without . divorce law in the galaxy
Of States. The doctrine of Nor
monism strikes st the very founda-
ton Of her ancient ideals and cher
ished traditions. 1t is time our
people, and above all our ministers,
awoke to the seriousness of this
propaganda. Meet these people on
their own battle-ground and before
the unanswerable argument of the
religion Of Christ the followers of
Joseph Smith and Brigham Young
must stink away afraid and ashamed.

The pioneer express. [volume] (Pembina, Dakota [N.D.]) 1883-1928, 1903-10-02

A little fellow out West Roxbury
way some ten years old, perhaps
twelve, bested his grandmothers the
other day rather neatly. All three
were ct the table when one of the la
dies casually mentioned the name Of
the family nurse. Immediately the
little fellow wanted to know who the
lady was. One grandma innocently re-
marked that 1t was the nurse that took
care of the boy when he was born.
But why didn't mamma take care
OF me? l was her baby, wasn't r.
queried the little fellow. True" says
grandma: "but. you see. mamma doesn't
understand how to look after little ba-
bies, particularly the first one, and we
have to have nurses who have learned
how in the hospitals" That seemed to
settle it. but oil Of sudden the little
fellow blurted out. well. then, who
took care of Cain?"-Boston Traveller.
