COMMUNITY GETS FINE RAIN
A Heavy Rain Yesterday Does
a Great Amount of Good

After the exceedingly long dry spell
which the country around Rapid City
has been suffering for long time,
the rain which we had last night has
given everyone most jubilant feel
ing. The rain from what reports we
can gather has been a general one
and the whole country has been Wis
tied. 1t commenced raining in Rapid
City about 7 O'Clock and we had a
rather heavy rain for about two
hours. From then on through the
night gentle rain fell which did an
unestimable amount of good. We
understand that the country north of
here received an excessive amount of
rain, so much at Speartfsh as to him
der the race program which was be-
ing carried out at the time.

Gang of Sixty Men Start to
Work Wednesday Morning


The Belts Construction Company of
Huron, who were awarded the con-
tract for the construction of the
ElSs' Hall last week, have force of
about sixty men and fifteen teams al
ready on the job. The work of exca-
waiting was started Wednesday morn
ing. The company expect to keep as
many men and teams on the work as
it is possible to use to advantage
The contract calls for the building to
be completed by the first of April,
next year. Although there is a great
amount OF work to be accomplished
by that time, still if each day can
show as much completed as the last
two have, it looks as though it would
easily be finished by that time. 1t is
estimated that nearly five thousand
loads of dirt will be excavated before
building operations can be com
menced. The dirt is being hauled to
all parts of town where it being put
on parkings, lawns and filling in low

The SO Per Cent Student

This is the season when young folks
minds turn not lightly to final exams.
Commencement days are here. "Have
you passed." ''Do you think you will
tlunk?' These are common queries
today. They pass from lip to lip with
more or less trepidation. There are
usually two kinds of students in every
class, the one who has put in his
hardest ticks to get the most out of
his books and the one who has done
just enough to make grades" and
get through. He is the sixty per cent
student. Sixty per cent we will take
as the minimum grade for passing.
If he makes that and barely gets
through, he is content, while to do
no better than that would sorely dis
appoint the other student, with hopes
fixed on the ninety per cent or an
even higher mark.
These sixty per cent and ninety per
cent people are to be found all
through life, outside as we'll as inside
of the school room and school days.
They are found in the shops and
factories and offices. Here is a man
who can hold his job by doing a GER
tain amount of work a day, a mini
mum amount. His ambitions run
ming no higher than that particular
job, he strives each day to do no more
than the minimum amount of work.
He is unwilling to let himself out, to
do his level best and to give his en-
ployer all he can, because, he argues,
"What is the use, / do not get paid
for it; I get paid only for certain
amount and will do that and nc
more" He is the sixty per cent fel
/ low. He manages to hold on to his
job. But the time comes. when the
place above him must be filled. Tt
whom does his employer look for the
man to fill it, the sixty per cent fel
low or the ninety per cent fellow, the
+ one who was unwilling to do more
than the rules required, or the one
who forgot the minimum in his an
xiety to reach the maximum?

Carrie Nation

Carrie Nation is gone. Her Ratchet
will no more strike terror into the
hearts of the bar-keepers and saloon
owners. nor will her fiery upbraiding
of the liquor traffic be heard in the
land. Her last battle has been fought
and the angel of death is returned
victor.
For many years Mrs. Nation was
merely another mode of amusement.
She furnished yards. of copy for the
newspaper scribe and travelled many
miles in a peculiar way to present her
picturesque but powerful arguments
against intemperance. Who shall say
that in her own peculiar way, the
hatchet-wielder has not done some
good.
Mrs. Nation had the courage to live
up to the principles she advocated.
Therein she was better than large
per centage of those who found time
to poke fun at the aged Kansas wo+
man. You never need doubt where
she stood. 1t takes people like her to
pat in the foundations for finer So
cial structure. She felt called to ac-
complish certain work. She did it
as best she knew. Would that more
would do their duty as they honestly
see it even as Mrs. Nation has done.
