ARBOR DAY.
President Roosevelt Issues Plea
to the Children of the
Nation.

Washington, d. c., April Ia Presi
dent Roosevelt has addressed "to the
school children of the United States"
message on the significance of Arbor
day. He advises them to celebrate the
day thoughtfully. The message says
Arbor day is now observed in every
state in our union, mainly in the
schools. At various times you give a
day or part of day to special exer-
cises, and perhaps to actual tree plant
ing in recognition of the importance of
trees to us as nation, and of what
they yield in adnrnment, comfort and
useful products.
1t is well that you should celebrate
your ArboI day thoughtfully, for with
in your lifetime the nations need of
trees will become serious. We of an
older generation can get along with
what we have, though with growing
hardship, but In yoar full manhood and
womanhood you will want what nature
once go bountifully supplied and man
so thoughtlessly destroyed, and because
of that you will reproach us for what
we wasted. For the nation, as for the
man or woman and the boy or girl, the
road to success is the right use of what
we have and improvement of the pres
ent opportunity. If you neglect to
prepare yourselves now tor the duties
and RESPONSE sipilities that will fall on
you later, If you do not learn the things
whicn you will need to know when
your school days are over, you will
suffer the consequences. So any nation
which in its youth lives for only the
day reaps without sowing, and must
expect the penalty of the prodigal,
whose labor could with difficulty find
him the bare means of life
A people without children would
face a hopeless future; a country with
out trees is almost as hopel ess. A true
forest is not merely storehouse full OF
wood, but, as it were. a factory OF
wood. and at the same time reservoir
Of water. When you help to preserve
our forests or to plant new ones you are
acting the part of good citizens The
value of forestry deserves, therefore, to
be taught in the schools. If your Ar
Dor day exercises help you to realize
what benefits each one of you receive
from the forests, and how by your as
sistance these benefits may continue,
they may serve good end.

GET AFTER IT.
Odd Fellows State Orphanage
Could Be Secured by
Madison.

An excellent meeting of the Com
neral club was held at their rooms last
evening, about forty members being
present, representative Of the leading
business men of the city.
The matter of the Odd Fellows state
orphanage was the plincpal theme oi
discussion. For the past decade the
Odd Fellows lodges of the state have
been preparing for the founding of ar
orphanage at some point in South Da
kota. During all this time DIR. A. E.
Clough of Madison has been chairman
of the board of trustees in charge of the
fund which is being subscribed for the
purpose. Cr. Clough was present al
last evenings meeting and gave com
prehensive statement of the plans and
purposes of the proposed orphanage. Il
is the desire of the lodges to secure 9
tract Of land Of perhaps forty acres OF
more near town provided with su
perior school and church facilities upon
which to build the orphanage.
At this time there is about $40, 900 In
the building fund and it is hoped tc
double this amount within the next two
years and establish the orphanage. Al
member of the board of trustees DR..
Clough said he desired to give all suit
able towns in the state an impartial
hearing in the case and furnish infor.
nation at any time in the interest Of
the orphanage. He pointed out the
commercial advantages of the town sc.
curing the enterprise, in the way of
transcient visitors to the orphanage.
also the sale of supplies for its mainte
nance, besides the great credit it would
be to a town possessing it. Business
men present were much Interested in
DR.. Clough's remarks, and there was q
disposition apparent to take hold Of tine
enterprise and land it for Madison.
With our excellent school facilities
city high school, grade schools and the
State Normal-no other town in the
state is better equipped in this particu-
lar.
The orphanage proposition has pro-
gressed to the extent that it will come
up for formal discussion at the meeting
of the grand lodge to be held at Pierre
next month. Locations and other mat.
ters pertaining to it will bs discussed
at this meeting, after which the matter
will be taken under advisement for q
year, and at the grand lodge meeting
in 1908, definite location will probably
be decided upon. There is no reason
why Madison should not secure the en-.
terprise. A suitable site could nc
doubt be secured near the city, in order
that children could attend the public
schools conveniently, with other advan-
tages which are apparent.

materials from which cigarettes are

any other city in the state without run

This can be stopped under the present
Iowa law, and if the people of different

to the danger that the cigarette is to
their boys it will be stopped.
