ARE THEY TOO HARD

Argus Leader: AS result of
the examinations held in July,
August and September, it is an
nounced that of the 2,260 appli
cants who applied for certiti
Gates, one applicant received
life diploma, seven state, tif
teen primary, forty a first grade,
449 second grade, and 6l1 a
third grade certificate, or a to
tai Of l,l29 who are eligible to
teach in the schools Of this
state.
There were 1,13l who failed
to get any certificate, which
means that just about one half
of the applicants failed to pass.
In connection with this report
it is stated that there is an acute
shortage Of teachers.
1t is announced from Pierre
that the state board has been
"very liberal" in marking the
markings, and still half of the
applicants failed to pass. Does
this mean that our teachers are
lacking in knowlege OF the sub
jects they are supposed to teach
or does it mean that the exam
nations are TO hard, and that to
much is expected. 1t should Of
course be understood that for
$50 or 500 month no school
board has right to expect an
equipment equal to that had by
men wi o have been for years ia
educational work, who have per.
haps had the advantage of a
college course, and who are get.
ting salaries of from 81, 200 ~
g, 900 a year.
This is not to say that tn e
state board ia South Dakota has
a list of questions which are too
hard to be fair. The results of
the examinations would, how
eyer indicate that this is the
case, or that the average of
scholarship is too low. This can
be remedled by paying higher
wages so that men aud women
OF better equipment will be
tempted into the educational
field, but until better wages are
paid it will manifestly be nee
essary to make examinations
less drastic.

TRipp COUNTY OPENING

f'rom sources which we con-
slider reliable, we have gathered
the in!or nation tha. the presi
dent will issue the proclamation
for the opening of the ceded por-
ton Of Tripp county to settle
ment in May. The agents now
at work doing the aliotting ex.
pect TO be through with that
work before the first OF the year.
AS the proclamation is issued at
least two months before the
registration and drawing, that
will bring these events in July,
and the fling in August and
September.
This tract OF land contains at
least one million acres, a large
portion oil it being choice land,
as good as that which occasion
ed the rush TO the Rosebud in
1904.
We expect that one of the
places of registration will be
Bonesteel, but we hope not, il
there is to be repetition of the
wide open policy and disgrace,
full actions which characterized
the place during the registration
in 1904.
This prospective opening OF
this tract Is attracting attention
in all parts of the country, and
places of registration will un.
doubtedly be crowded by thou
sands eager TO secure l60 acres
of Uncle Sam domain. The
price Of the land-S6 per acre
is not going to deter many, as
the people realize that home
steads are getting scarce, and
that land is rapidly growing in
value.

ing.
The church was duly built. It was
complete in every detail, but was a
joke as to size, being merely a minia-
ture. 1t is about Is feet wide and
about twice as long. When packed to
its capacity it will hold about so
souls. But it was a church. It had
steeple, Gothic windows, and all the
usual details. Hence when Mr.. Hes.
terberg tried to open his saloon the
matter was carried into court, but to
the chagrin Of the church members,
the Supreme court, Justice Gaynor
presiding, held that the miniature re-
ligious structure was a church &C.
cording to the letter of the law, but
not according to its spirit, and that
as regular church services were not
and could not be held therein. it was
piece of spite, and not church In
fact at all.
So the Hesterberg saloon opened in
triumph and the little church became
known as "the spite church." and as
such often has been pointed out. The
Park Side church is now Presbyterian,
and sometimes uses the little church
as an annex for Bible and Sunday
school classes, but it is not regularly
needed, and Lenox road as a whole
will be glad to see it go.

young army recruit who enlisted in

recruits for Jefferson barracks, near

height is feet 2 inches. He was ac-
cepted only on the recommendation of
President Roosevelt. to whom he wrote
explaining the situation after he had
been rejected OH account of his height
Mt the auxiliary recruiting station at
Topeka early in April.
Dagan had entertained the hope of
becoming a soldier for a number Of
years. He is now Twenty-Five and,
having no one dependent upon him, he
went to the recruiting station to enter
tho service. He passed rigid exami-
nation save for his height, but the
news that for this reason he could
not become a soldier did not deter him.
He had decided to become one, and
promptly wrote to President ROose-
veit. explaining the situation. He
made an earnest appeal to the chief
executive, and the frank, earnest man
ner in which he couched his plea
seemed to strike the president as that
Ut man who would make q good
soldier.
This is probably the first instance of
'tl acceptance of an application for
enlistment in the army when a dis
rTepancy OF two inches in the required
height existed. The minimum height,
az stipulated by the war department,

During the first hundred drops the
student made airy remarks. With the
second hundred he began to look less
cheerful; then gradually all his talk
died away, and his face took ON bag

third hundred the hand began to swell
and look red. The pain increased to
torture. Finally the skin broke.
At the four hundred and twentieth
drop the skeptic acknowledged his
doubts vanished and begged for mercy.
He could bear no more.
