Bailey's Island, that the announce
ment that an informal program would
be rendered on Wednesday evening,
August Bird attracted nearly every
islander to this beautiful little
SerSc}ure. -
Theevenings entertainment opened
with a group Of violin numbers, rend-
dered beautifully by Miss Josephine
Rice Thorpe. These consisted of two
gavottes by Bach and Cradle songs of
the French, Russian and Norwegian
nations.
Three selections from the gifted
pen Of Sara King Wiley, which have
appeared In such magazines as Har-
per's, were read and won much an
plause both because of the intrinsic
beauty OF the authors thought and
style andfor the readers delightful rem
dition of the same. The selections
were.-The Fawn, The Poppy Garden
and THE Secret of the Spring Winds.
Another contribution from the re-
petior OF Miss Thorpe consisted of
Will-o'-the Wisp by Jensen and Ro-
nance by Weiniawsk.
The event of the evening was
reading by Clara Louise Burn
ham. Hers is a name already far
famed in the realm of letters and
those who heard her on Wednesday
evening were especially favored in
the rare privilege Of listening to
scene. The Flower Quest, from the
new book which she has just finished
and will publish this fall. The con-
eeption was most poetic and elevat-
ing and interpreted as she could
alone interpret her own ideas.
The closing number was an instr
mental trio, Miss Thorpe playing the
violin, Mr.. Woodman the organ,
and Miss Bertha Schoff the piano. at
which instrument she had presided
most commercially during the entire
evening.

Words Of Wisdom.
UNTO THINE OWN SELF BE TRUE
BY Grace N. Brown.

How long does 1t take some of US
to realize that we only have to be
true to ourselves in order to be true
to everyone else!
We seem to have an idea that Ger.
tain individuals belong to us. and In
order to be true to those privileged
mortals we must constantly remind
them Of their blessings in being so
owned and SO protected-when, II we
would only leave out some Of our SD.
perhuous attention and protection Il
would be very much more comforta-
BILE all around.
When We deprive other human be-
ings Of their experiences by shield.
ing them from their discipline In life,
we are assuming good deal Of re-
sponsibility, besides being false I,
ourselves and false to them.
Did you ever hear people talk abe
overcoming personality when at the
same time they were wearing out
their bodies by sacrificing them
selves for one or two persons whom
they think they own and consequent
ly love. 1t is rather comfortable to
be unselfish in that way even If Il
Is OeluSlve.
We do not owe ourselves any more
nor any less than we owe other peo-
pie. but our first duty is to ourselves,
just as mothers first duty is to her
baby. Through our true attitude OF
love to ourselves we express love to
all the world. Through a mothers
attitude of love and service to her
child she expresses love to all chill
drQn-and inf
OF all the wee ones through her own
great love.
We come into consciousness
through our experiences. We must
be true in those experiences. We
must live In the highest ideals we
know-express ourselves according
to the demands of our own being. -

1t is fearful bondage when one is

Macaroni Wheat.

A Fort Collins, Colo, special says
that it was demonstrated this week at
the agricultural college that macroni
wheat excels Colorado spring wheat in
breadmaking. Heretofore this wheat
has been regarded as inferior in quail
ty, but improved milling machinery
makes it possible to make the best OF
bread from this flour. Macaroni wheat
is drouth and smut-resistant variety,
yielding from fifteen to twenty five
bushels to the acre on the Colorado
plains. This bread contest was con-
Quoted in President Aylesworth's office,
and the judges were Mrs. Carlyle, Mrs.
Aylesworth and Miss Ammons. The
fact that this wheat can be made into
first class flour means that macaroni
wheat raising will become one of the
best paying crops on land above bitches
and hundreds of acres of prairie land
in this part OF the state will be re-
claimed under dry farming.

The Range Half OF South Dalsot.

The region lying west OF the Missouri
river in South Dakota very appropri-
ately may be termed the range country,
the Black Hills in restricted degree
excepted. This large portion Of the
commemorative area is of different
geological formation from that of the
country east of the big severing river
This has also something to do with the
contour of the region The far famed
Bad Lands, with their deep recesses
and lonely and grim buttes and pima
cles, bear testimony of wonder weaving
epochs in the remote past. But the
jolly range steer, lettering about the
drink holes or wandering into the anne
thist haze of the bunch grass meadows,
cares naught for this. The deep can
yons shield him from the storms of
midwinter, and the narrow swales reach
up their delicious morsels of forage,
wherewith the hanks of fat on his ribs
are expanded. Great is the range ma
ture built, and great is the grass built
steer.-Will Chamberlain in Sioux City

ANOTHER VIEWPOINT.

To The STAR:-Inasmuch as the
Times: Herald has reported the names
Of the members OF the school board
who voted against the vacation of that
part of Tenth street upon which the
school grounds abut, and to misrepre-
sent members who voted to protect the
interests of the school district, the
members who voted against said vaca-
tion, and the giving of the forty foot
strip to the government, are, indeed,
glad to have the taxpayers of the dis
trict know the facts in the case, and
our reasons for so voting. Therefore
we ask the privilege of publishing the
following facts:
First. The petition recites that

petition further recites that the Board
OF Managers of the National Home
must construct suitable sidewalk
from River avenue and on the north
side OF Tenth street up to the school
house, said sidewalk to be at least six
feet wide, and on the north side of said

the plant. Cattle have been brought

1t has been demonstrated that the

much better after being dipped. II

which he discontinued few weeks age
when the change of time of arrival OF

the owner of the buildings and we un

$4,000. The fire is said to have been O,

school district to surrender and have
vacated all of the eighty foot street for
building six foot walk; no statement
of what sort, on the south side OF
Tenth street, and on the north side OF
the walk to erect fence.
The Times-Herald says the Home
management would grade the street
They agree to nothing of the kind in
the petition, and their plat shows that
the proposed driveway leaves Tenth
street and bears to the north before it
reaches the school premises. All the
management agrees to do is fence and
take in the street.
In the first place the school board
has no legal right to consent to the va
cation of this main street, nor to deed
away what will become the property of
the district in case of the vacation of
the street.
Second. The taxpayers have right
to expect the school board to protect
the school property and the interests
of the district.
Third. The people of the central and
upper portion of the city have q right
to the use of the street leading from
River avenue to the school ground and
to the Sanitarium grounds without
having to 60 down to Eighth street
and up Chicago avenue, more than a
half mile around.
Fourth. If the street is left as it is
the Board of Managers can put in their
gate at point ON the north side of
Tenth street where their proposed
graded driveway, AS shown by their
plat, enters their own ground, and then
the city can grade the street from there
on up the hill, which will make an easy
and convenient thoroughfare to the
school and Sanitarium hill, for all the
upper town especially.
Fifth. 1t has not been claimed that
the Board of Managers have ever look
ed into or requested any such unusual
proceedings, as the vacation and sur
rendering of this street. From the
attorneys own statement, it appears
the matter has never been before them.
nor do we believe they need or will ask
for any such concession.
Signed, j. W. APpLEGATE.
