C. G.. Moe, Of Spring Lake town
ship, has moved to a home in Airing
ton which he recently purchased. Mr..
Moe was n of the pioneers of Spring
Lake and one of it's most successful
farmers. He will be greatly missed
by his old neighbors, but will be an
important acquisition for the town of
Arlington. G. G. is entitled to take
life easy and we hope that life in

- Owing to an accident which be
fell Will H. Bruno, the star of "Hello
Bill, while on his way to the depot
at Pierre early Tuesday morning,
causing him to miss his train, the
company did not appear here Tues
day night as advertised. Every indi.
cation pointed TO a good attendance
and many were disappointed. The
company showed at Lake Preston on
Wednesday night. Mr. Bruno was
here to arrange with Manager Miller
for another date in December.
"A large company of talented sing
ers and clever players with one of the
best equipped and attractive chorus
organizations on the road, is promis,
ed in the performance of THE Girl
from q. S. Al, which will be seer here
for the first time at the opera house
on Nov. 30. This musical drama has
a long list of successes to it's credit
this season and comes with a glowing
reputation for its mirth producing
qualities and strong situations. It's
musical numbers are pronounced pop
ular and tuneful by the press and its
production has been described as a
noteworthy effort in scenic art.
1t is just as well for everyone TO
take precautions against burglary and
petty thieving. There seems to be
an epidemic of it at present, just as
there is every year at this season.
Much of it is by professionals, al
though some of it is by local talent.
So far the business section of DeSmet
has escaped the visits of these crooks,
which is probably due to the efficient
work of our nightwatch, Pat Kildee.
There has been some petty thieving,
however, such as cleaning out chicken
~roosts, etc. This small petty thiev-
ing is very annoying and we hope the
authorities will arrange for an inves-
tigation into this matter. If the petty
thieves, or any of them, are caught
an example will be made of them.
Patience ceases to be a virtue very
