he won't be such of a man unless
ne is a good deal of a boy. He
must not be a coward >r weakling,
a bully. a shirk, or a prig. He
must be clean minded and clean
lived, and able 10 hold his own
under all circumstances and
against all corners 1t is only on
these conditions that he will grow
into the kind of a man of whom
America can really be proud. In
life as in football the principle
to follow is: Hit the line hard,
don't foul and don't shirk, bat hit
the line hard" Roosevelt.

COUNTY SCHOOL NOTES
6BY THE COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT o

Next teachers examination, Ap
ril 10th and 18TH.
FirSt'eight grade examination
May 21st and 22nd.
Teachers and patrons meeting
at Avon, Saturday, next.
Miss Marie Barth and Messrs
Frank Nelson, Paul Emerson, Ar
thur Harrison, and Raymond God
dard succeeded in raising their
grades oil certificates at the last
examination.
One of the coziest and most in,
viting primary rooms the superin-
tendent has seen is that of the
Scotland schools in charge of
Miss Lola Cambell.
Miss Mary Murtha who has just
completed very successful term
of school in Fair View distri .,
No. 81, has taken charge of the
Roosevelt sch ool, No. 28.
1t is very much to be regretted
that any one who is aspiring to be
a Teacher should allow himself or
herself to attend to alter the mark
ings upon the standing sheet"
and thus dishonesty endcavor to
secure a certificate. This is, also,
extremely unwise as records of
these standings are kept in the Of
fees of both the county and the
state superintendents.
The Horace K. Turner Art COL
lection will be on exhibit at the
high school in Tyndall on April
Ist to 4th inclusive. This is an ex
cellent opportunity to see some
OF the very best pictures at a very
low cost. No teacher who can
arrange to come should miss see
ing this exhibit. These pictures
are copies in color of the worlds
greatest productions and are
equal to those of many of the art
galleries of ,he larger cities. Plan
to see it. The admittance will be
very small.
"Of course what we have a
right to expect from the Ameri-
can boy is that he should turn
out to be good American man.
Now, the chances are strong that

The state land board at a recent
session, considered the matter of
where the state lands would be
offered this year under provisions
OF the law which requires them to
place upon the market $4,000 a
cres of state and endowment
lands each year. Uuder the pro-
visions OF that act the following
counties have been selected in
which offerings will this year be
made, the county seats being the
place of sale, and the dates as
follows:
Huron, Beadle county, April 16.
DeSmet, Kingsbury CO., April II.
Madison, Lake co, April Is.
Howard, Miner CO, April 20.
Mitchell, Dawson CO, April 81.
Alexandria, Hanson CO. April %.
Olivet, Hutchinson CO. April %.
Tyndall, Bon Homme CO. April "a.
Parker, Turner co. April 70.
CastlewOod, Hamlin CO. April p.
Aberdeen, Brown co. April %.
Britton, Marshall CO. April 20.
Ipswich, Edmunds CO. April 80.
Leola, Mcpherson CO. May.
Redfeld, Sphinx CO. Maya.
The unsold lands in these coun-
ties will be offered for lease on
the days following the sales ex-
cept where the following day is
Sunday, in which case the lease
books will be opened by the coun
ty auditor on the following Mon
day. In the counties of Marshall
Edmunds and Mcpherson, about
$4,000 acres of endowment land
will be offered, while in the other
counties the offerings will be OF
state school land.
Inquiries sent out to people liv-
ing in many parts of the counties
in which offerings will be made,
show that the estimates of home
people places the values of the
state lands from $50 to $40 per
acre. VI ith an occasional tract
placed down to the minimum of
$40 an acre, and an occasional
one put as high as $50 an acre.
While there were very few re
quests for sale coming into the
department. up to the first of the
pear they are now coming rapidly |
showing that there is desire to
purchase the lands. South Dako-

pose of making final arrange

MAKING BETTER CITIZENSHIP.

The Spokesman-Review of Spokane
has caught an inspiration from two
events of the past week and gives its
readers some Wholesome food for
thought upon the subject of good
citizenship, as a result.
The two events which have served
to inspire the Spokesman are the ad-
dress of Francis ]. Heney at Port
land on the political situation in Or
egon. and the special message OF
President Roosevelt on the subject
Of law enforcement. The editorial is
as follows. and is worthy of place
in every voters scrap book
Two remarkable utterances have
stirred the nation during the past
week-one in the east, the other IN
the west. President Roosevelt has
given to congress a message that is
without precedent among official
documents in the rebuke it admins
ters to law-violating trusts, predatory
wealth and various evils inflicted by
unscrupulous individuals and corpor-
ations on the public, and in the plea
II makes for an elevation of the ma
tional standard of conduct in differ
ent walks Of life.
Francis ]. Heney special prosecut-
or in land fraud cases. delivered al
Portland, Ore, a scathing arraign-
ment of men in high places who are
charged with bribing legislators and
with other serious offenses.
Both the message and the speech
are worthy Of repeated readings. They
set men to thinking, and the more
thought that is given, seriously, in
telligently and wisely, to the situa-
ton as portrayed by these two men,
the greater will be the qualification
that there are those in prominent
places who can speak thus boldly and
forcibly.
Everybody should echo the words
of Mr.. Heney when he said: II don't
