Thinkin' of Thanksgiyin' sets the !ins
of singin' free
To murmur of the happiness the
Lord has sent to me;
Thinktn' Of Thankssivin--nn so
much OF grace to say
Ii keeps the grateful spirit buss
learnin' how to pray.
Thinkin' Of Thanksgivin' brings the
old sweet things again.
Tho years of tender toiling and the
lips of loves refrain.
The twilight road to baby, and the
little lane that goes
Unto the arms that clasp me in the
folding of a rose!
Thinkin' Of Thanksgivin-an' there's
lots to think about:
The little peep-o'-dawn eyes and the
little morning shout.
The beating Of the hammers on the
anvil5 OF the day,
And when the whistling journey to
the twilight land-o-gray.
Thinkin' of Thanksgivin' keeps me
busy countin' up
The honey life has mingled with the
bitter in my cup;
The sunlight more than shadow, anC
the equal toll and rest,
With a child to lead me ~homeward
where my love hath built it'
nest,
Thinkin' of Thanksgivin-pleas'
God, we're livin' yet,
An grateful for the share we've go
or may be goin' to get;
And gratefuller than any for th'
grace to toll and sing
On the twilight road to honey il
the shadow of loves wing!

grown rather fond of the critter, he

"But doesn't his barking annoy

No; l haven't NOTICED it at all

ANNUAL REVIEW
OF the Products of the State OF South
nakatn co, the Past Year.

Dakota for the Past Year.
Secretary Doane Robinson, Of the
State Historical Society, has Just is
saed his seventh annual review OF
progress of South Dakota, taking up
the material progress of the state
for the past year, including railway
development and settlement. The
following extracts from the report
viii be of interest generally to citi-
Gems of the state:
The increase in school population
is 1924 for the year, and the natural
Increase in population by births over
deaths has been 6,9G5 for the same
time. While new settlement is ac-
credited to a large general increase,
there is 10 way TO show this before
the census OF 1910 is taken.
Tho total legislative appropriations
for the last session were $500
1921, of which a large percentage
went into public buildings at differ
emit points in the state.
The agricultural prospects of the
slate are credited as having been
better in the western and 2entra
parts of the state than in the eastern
portion, where the heavy rains of Tho
eariy spring retarded seeding an'
corn planting, With continuing we.
weather reducing the crop yield.
He summarizes the production O
the present year in the following tab

In the Tauridc Palace, where the

In the Tauridc Palace, where the
former dumas at st. Petersburg were
held, the third national assembly
summoned by the czar under revised
electoral laws WAS opened last lhufS-
day, while the approaches to the
building were strongly guarded by
troops and guns, Senator GoluDo1l
opened the session and delivered the
message from the ear, who did not
come to the capital. Nicholas kom-
lakoff, a former marshal OF the no.
bility and a member Of the October
list party, was elected president OF the
duma, he being supported by the
constitutional democrats and nation
alists. His opponent was Count
Bobrinsky, a r~eactionary, The pres
ence of the troops was explained by
the fear OF an attempt to blow up
the palace. The new assembly con
tains no avowed socialist, as all such
candidates were vigorously excluded
from the electorate.

Grafton of the country passed a reso-
luton, whose terms pledge that or
ganization to bend every energy
within its power toward obtaining a
universal eight-hour working day.
This action is OF peculiar moment,
coming at this time of revelation
concerning methods of doing bust
ness in financial circles, and the r.
sultaat evils that naturally follow
when the commercial spirit SO COM

tion of life that It's principal aim be-

Garner has been called upon to pay
the price the spirit Of commercial
ism demands when carried to ex-
trames. The tendency to regard him
merely as q means wehereby money

senjoyed q dangerous growth. 1t is
worthy of note, however, that
throughout the country the employer
in numerous instances has recognize.

TO this Us added dairy products,

toes. vegetables, fruits and other pro-
ducts to the amount Of G1~S,i2o,000,
making a grand total of s9o,9Gl,-
$500 worth of products shipped
out OF tho state in 1906, which is a
net increase OF S3,gA2,142.24 over
the shipments OF 1908.
The review goes into detail on
many of the factors of state progress.
but those of the estimated produc-
tions of the year and the actual mar
ketings of last year stand out promi-
nently to shor just what the state is
doing in the way of material pros
parity, which places it at the head
of the states for annual new wealth
per capita for several years past.
The year has seen the consumma-
ton of the hope which for more
than a quarter Of a century has 1ilea
the minds of the people-the COM
pletion of railroads from the Mis-
souri, river to the Black Hills, thus
providing easy and convenient com
munication between the remote sec
lions of the state. The completion
of the Northwestern line was eff
fected en- July 10, at five O'Clock
D. M, and the Milwaukee was but q
few days later. The great steel
bridge across the Missouri at Pierre
was completed October IA, and upon
that day through train service was
established from Chicago to Dead
wood by the new route.
The Milwaukee railroads Pacific
extension has been completed entire
ly across the northern portion of the
state this season and it's steel bridge
across the Missouri at Mobridge, west
Of Aberdeen, is well along in con-
struction.
The Minneapolis 4 st. Louis has
completed its lines projected last
year as far west as the Missouri at
LeBeau and northwest to Leola.
The South Dakota Central is con-
structing an extension north from
Rutland, in Lake county, to Water
town. The rails are laid cross the
Northwestern at Arlington, and
grading is being pushed along the
entire line. 1t is hoped, If weather
permits, to get the rails into Water
town by mid-winter.
These extensions bring the total
mileage of the state to about 5000
miles.
A professor at the University of
Virginia was e~ndeavoring to impress

A Pierre special says State Land
Commissioner Dokken is receiving
numerous applications to purchase
pine timber on the state lands in the
Black Hills, under the provisions Of
Chapter 224 of the last legislative
session, which authorizes the depart
ment to sell the matured pine lum-
Der under certain regulations, but
none of the applications are being
considered at the present time. for
the reason that the interior depart
ment disputes the title of the state
to school sections which were not
surveyed at the time the forest re-
serve was established. This dispute
has been of long standing, and the
state Office has been attempting TO
get some kind of q settlement of the
disputes without results. The indl-
cations now appear to be that some
definite understanding will be
reached within a short time. through
a meeting of the representatives OF
the different states, which are in Gle
same position as South Dakota. and
representatives Of the government,
which will be held at an early Gate.

Washington was instrumental in
starting this movement which will
