and though street slang, it was i'm
prcssive and to the point, In one OF
the finest lectures ever given in this
city, DR.. Sears poured grape shot and
lers u nd put the enemy to flight with
his curc-work. The man or woman
who works and .works with that interest
in their work which brings success,
will find no time to grumbe at the
passing events over which they have
no control. DR.. Sears should be heard
to be appreciated.
John Morris was an arrival this week
from Sheridan, Wyo., for visit with
friends and relatives in this section.
This is Mr.. Morris first visit in four
years and says there arc u great many
changes and strange faces 10 be seen.
His brother, Tilden, is employed in u
large department store there US accoun
tnnt, while he, himself holds the po-
sition of chief clerk in II leuding furni
turc store. Speaking Of the country
Immediately surrounding Sheridan he
said: 'Wc have d wonderfully rich
country. both in mines and agriculture.
We now have 5000 people and still
more coming each day. The govern
mcnt is spending a large amount OF
money on the new military post and
few new coal minestwill open this sum-
mer, Our farmers are prosperous and
happy; our climate compars favorable
with the climate here, and, as you
know, it is the finest in tue world A
number of former Rapid City people
are there and doing nicely Mr..
Morris will return to Sheridan today.
A correspondent asks the question
should a wife work" He intimates
| that the Home Circle Department Is
partial to the fair sex and thinks we
ought to hit the wife as severe q blow
as we do to the husband. We agree
with him so here we go: Yes Ger
tainly q wife should work. Ever since
Adam induced Eve to eat that Ben
Davis apple, her daughters have been
doomed to toll. But some mon are un
reasonable about wife's work They
want her to chop all the wood when
they could save her lots OF work by
buying her sharp saw. She can be
taught to file the saw and keep it in
good order. We know a man who
makes his wife get up In the morning
and curry the mules before breakfast.
That Is wrong, She should get break
fast first, as she is not SO apt to to shed
mule hair in the butter. Horse hair is
bad enough but mule hair is an abom-
nation. There is q great deal in prop
erly training a wife. She should be
taught to mix her bread with paddle
She should be- taught to split her kind
ling and get 1t in ut night especially in
the winter. If she has to hunt around
in the dark before the sun is up for
kindling it is apt to make her cross all
day. We hope our col respondent who
charges US with being partial to the
fair sex will paste this in his hat and
also send us an apology Ga

Did you ever notice group of little
girls between the ages OF IA and 1Sl
chattering away in a corner? The
next time You sit near such group
listen and hear If about every tenth
word is not what she said." II is is,
you have found some more OF the she
said" girls, and they are not the incest
little girls in the WORLD, The "he said"
girls are likely to loiter down town
after school too late to help their moth
ers with the afternoon work. They
are likely to wear better clothes than
their fathers can afford, so that the
neighbors wonder what their mothers
can be thinking about, The she said"
girl also too often thinks more OF the
boys thun of their books, and frequent
~ fail to get through school. They
are in for good time, and have moth
ing in their heads but hairpins and
two-steps. Sometimes nature takes a
girl out of the "he said" family and
makes fine woman out Of her, but
generally she gets to going out to par
Lies and is developed before her time,
and either marries and fades at 20 or
hangs on after all the other girls are
married off, and takes generation after
generation OF young boys to raise by
nand, and become known as "grandma"
In the crowd. There is nothing SO
sweet as simple, frank, n-hearted
girl. But the boy stuck girl is an
determination. The whole matter rests
with the girls mother. She Can either
bring up one Of the "he sald' girls or
she can have daughter to be proud of.
