BOOST.

On July 2 and 3 Brookings will
have a big race meet and sports day
and in order to make it a success
every business man and citizen will
have to- put forth a united effort. 1t
will be a big undertaking and the COM
mittee in charge needs help to put
it through. When they call on you
be a booster and do what you can.
The committee has handed us the fol-
lowing statement, which expresses
our sentiments exactly:
To the People,
There Is a movement on foot for
a ace and sporting meet to take place
on the fair grounds on July 2 and 3.
This is an occasion that will bring
to the city many people from miles
around. 1t has been advertised In
the county and in many outside pa
pers, that Brookings would have two
days of entertainment at that time.
| Other towns have given up celebra.
, tons of the Fourth in order to take
in this meeting. Now it is up to us
to- get into action and make this thing
a decided go. Committees have been
appointed and some of them will call
on the general public for help. Now,
Mr.. Citizen, when you are asked to
give either of your time or money
to make this a successful entertain
ment, do not do it grudgingly or pain
fully, as If a tooth was being pulled.

Prof Cyril G. HOnkinS.

Prof. Cyril G.. Hopkins, a young
man who grew up in South Dakota
and was educated at the state agri-
cultural college Is now chief of agrono-
my and chemistry at the Illinois ex-
pertinent station and is reputed to
be the leading agronomist of America.
He has contributed a paper to the
Annals Of the American Academy Of
Sciences which should serve to place
every cultivator of American soil up
on his guard against such methods
which result in the waste of the ele-
ments of productivity. He declares
that "the greatest material problem
of the United States is not the de-
velopment of the waterways, not the
preservation of forests and not the
conservation of our iron and coal,
important as these all are, but the
problem that Is vastly greater than
all these is to bring about the ad-
option of systems of farming that
will maintain or increase the produc-
tive power of American soils. He
further calls attention to the fact that
within n hundred miles of James
town, where the first permanent Eng
lish settlement was made are hun.
dreds of thousands of acres Of level
farming lands not injured by soil
erosion which were once valued at
fifty dollars per acre but which now
can be purchased for less than ten
dollars per acre because the plant pro
ducing elements have been exhausted.
He shows co~nclusively that the black
corn and wheat land of the western
prairies are losing their productive
power at a rate which means their
total impoverishment within a cen.

upon radical reform in farming and
adoption of methods which will not

"Prices Backed by Quality"

THIS STORE never asserts that the price is low
. unless it is backed by Quality" No matter
how low the price, unless there's real merit in the
goods, the item is rot a value. It's "Quality' the
public wants-but at a price that brings the item at
it's worth. Every article in our splendid stock is
priced along such lines, values that have Quality"

been the making of an error of judg-
ment. In view of the prices at which
these bonds had been previously
selling they no. doubt thought that
they were doing a good thing by the
county in making the trade they did
Nor has any question ever been raised
that they purposely adopted an iilegel
method for selling the bonds. They
thought that they had perfect right
to sell them the way they did. Per-
haps they did have the right for that
question is yet to be settled by the
courts.
If they did not. this and the
other mistakes that they made
in letting the bonds go for the
price that they sold are, as has
been stated, nothing worse than errors
of judgment. They are not sufficient
excuses for their removal from Of
flee. The county commissioners are
nothing more than human beings.
They are quite as likely to make a
mistake occasionally in the transact
ton of public affairs as every man
is in the pursuits of private life. 1t
is unfortunate that they made such a
serious blunder but a greater one
would be made if they were retired
from Office because of 1t.
There is not scintilla of evidence
that they were guilty of any kind of
wrong-doing in this bond transaction.
If there had been the case would
have a different aspect. On the whole
the present members of the county
governing board have discharged their
duties with the utmost care and to
the satisfaction of the taxpayers of
the county. They are walking in the
same excellent steps that have been
followed by all of the Shawnee coun-
ty commissioners for the past few
years. To even attempt to turn them
out of office for the making of a
mistake. serious in way though it
was, would not speak very well for the
of the people they have
been serving so efficiently.

THE PASSION FOR ACHIEVEMENT

What are the motives which keep
men shaving after they have acqui- ed
a competence is ambition a selfish
attitude?' These and similar questions
have often been asked me-" writes
Owen Sewett Marden in Success
Magazine" for September.
1.-The passion for conquest, for power,
the love of achievement, is one of the
most dominant and persistent charac-
teristics Of human nature. With most
men the Observation-Disclosures and housing
problem, is only one, and often one of
the least, of the motives for an active
career.
I'VE have an instructive feeling that
we have been set in motion by a highe:-
power; that there is an invisible spring
within us-the 'iTnperious must'-which
impels us to go onward, to weave tic
pattern given us in the Mount of
TRANSPORTATION of our highest moment.
to make our Hfe-vision real A divine
impulse constantly urges us to reach
upward to our highest ideal There is
something back of our supreme am
bition deeper than mere personal
qualification. We instinctively feel that
there is vital connection between IT
and the great plan of creation, the pro-
gress, the final goal of the race.
I'VE are dimly conscious that we owe
something to the world, and that it is
our duty to pay the debt. There is
something within us which protests
against our living idle. purposeiess
lives; which tells us that our debt to
the race is a personal one; that it can
not be paid by our acestors, by proxy
1t tells US that our message to human
ity is not transferable; that we must
deliver it ourselves. No matter how
much money we may have, we don't
feel quite right-really happy-unless
We are doing our part of the worlds
work. We feel that it is mean, con-
temptible, to be drones in the great hL-
man hive; to eat, drink, wear, and use
what others earn by hard labor. We
have a sneaking feeling that we are
criminals; that it is unworthy of us
to shirk manly or womanly part in
life; it violates our sense of Justice,
of fairness.
These promptings of humanity and
the yearning of every normal man and
woman for a fuller, completer life;
the craving for expansion, for growth;
the desire to objectify our life-visions,
to give birth to the children of our
brain, to exercise our inventiveness,
our ingenuity, to express our artistic
temperament, our talents, whatever
they may be; the inherent, instructive
longing to become that which we were
intended to be; to weave the life-pat-
tern given US at birth-these are the
impelling motives for a creative ca
reer"
