long Hours Of Working Girls
Cause Freak Ideas.
Or. Caroline Hedeer Makes Plea for
Adoption Of Amendment to Wom-
ems Ten-Hour Law, Giving
Time to Think Of Doin1s.

Chicago.-More leisure as a cure
for women's craving for rats" puffs
and high heels was advocated by DIR.
Caroline 'Hedger in a talk before the
members of the Women's Trade
Union league.
Her subject was "The Cost of Long
Hours for Women" and she intimated
that one of the results of long hours
was an inordinate desire for "over-
dressing" and for appearing in freak
ish costumes.
The speaker made a plea for the
adoption of the amendment to the
women's ten-hour law, making the
limitation of hours "a a week, which
would, she said. give working women
more time to think Of some of their
doings and mend their ways"
Women who work need more time
for their religious duties, for their
family, and for the development Of
the best that is in them" said Doc
tor Hedger. "If working women had
more time they wouldn't do the
things they do now.
They wouldn't wear high heels
and strut around with rats and puffs.
Thank heavens, I never had time to
buy a rat. II the women had
more time to study art and
life there would be few rats
worn and they wouldn't wear
freakish 'hand-me-down suits that
are made the same for thousands
and without any more individuality
than a thousand.
What do We women aim at as
women? We wish to attain and main
tain economic efficiency. We wish to
have social and family relations and
we wish to have an effect on the
future.
Nothing affects us sc vitality as
fatigue, which may be classified as
normal and abnormal, and fatigue Is
the result Of mental and bodily ac-
ton. A certain amount of work Is
necessary for the muscular and cir
a the fatigue stuffs in the sys-
tenn and ends in a physical break
down.
"The fatigue stuffs are poisons that
must be taken out and kept out OF
the system to maintain economic eff
cheney. The main way to dispose Of
the fatigue stuffs is by sleep. Fatigue
a be reduced by the taking Of
food. but sleep is the main cure.
More time is needed by the working
woman for sleep.
you can't lose six hours sleep
one night without paying it back. II

Nothing produces fatigue among
working women like the work CT the

FOR THE STATE AGRICULTURAL
LANDS WILL BE EFFECT.
I'VE NEXT YEAR.
OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST
From the Capital City, the Various
State Institutions and Diff
ferent Parts of the
State.

The lease books from the various
of the state are in the state
land department, and show that there
has been little difference in the leas-
ing prices for this year and last year.
While in individual leases the lease
price was run up pretty well, the gen.
eral average was about the same, re-
CARELESS of the higher prices secured
on sales. This is caused no doubt by
the fact that the department made
only one-year leases this season. This
on account Of the new law providing
for leases for agricultural purposes.
This law will be put into practical
operation in the leases of next year,
and fve-year leases will be made both
for agricultural and grazing purposes,
and on term leases, the lease returns
will no doubt show a material gain
over n received in past years. In
fact If the theory of those who en-
dorsed agricultural leases proves cor
rect the amount brought to the in
come fund from that source next year
hould run well into the thousands.

meeting on the subject of measure

pears this state, under his administra-
ton Of the office has pushed that

War on the BootIegger.

war on tnc 6~ootIe99eT.
The government has located a force
of special agents in the towns which
have been located in the reservation
country in the northern part of the
state. Under the provisions Of the
law under which the Cheyenne River
and Standing Rock reservations we're
opened to settlement, no liquor may be
sold in that territory for twenty-five
years after the cate Of opening. This
regulation includes all the towns in
the counties of Corson, Dewey and
Ziebach, and as the dry section" is
somewhat extensive, the "bootlegger"
has been doing a profitable business
at some of the towns, and the govern
ment Is taking up the matter to look
after enforcement.

Presidents Nash of Aberdeen nor

of Madison normal, and Wenzlaff OF
Springfield normal, all state schools,
were in conference with State Super.
intendent Lawrence over the course
of study to be adopted for these

the course of study those lines which
will be acceptable to the state super
intendent SO that certificates can be
granted with the teacher taking the
usual examination, the graduating d.
ploma of the teacher being sufficient
for her to enter work. This will place
the normals on a higher grade and
will be a greater inducement for stu

Endowment Sales.

IN
The sales of endowment lands made
by the state land companies this year
did not come up to the average prices
paid for school lands. The sales were
made in the counties of Mcpherson,
Marshall and Edmunds, bringing an
average of SPOIL an acre. In Mar
shall 4,907 acres were sold at an aver
age of 1924 an acre; in Mcpherson
4.374 acres, at an average OF SIC, and
In Edmunds. 722 acres at an average
of $25.79. The endowment lands were
selected from lands left for. selections
after admission of the state, and as a
rule the better lands had been taken
in filings by individuals, and the char
acter of the lands were not up to those
of the state school lands, which were
located in sections 16 and So of each
township, and were most of them Of
as good qaulity as the average of the
townships in which they are located.

used on the cattle ranches. The cat
temen are now having difficulty IN
getting enough horses for their men
to ride when they wish to round up

CHAPTER XVII.

BEsIEGED BY THE PIRATE.
ALT stupefed with surprise, I
- glanced around and saw, be-
sides Miss Grayman, only her
maid The parachute, right
ing itself, descended more swiftly than
before
Good heavens. Miss Graymanm /
exclaimed What are you doing here
Where is Payton?"
For answer to my last question she
had only strength enough to point up
ward l glanced toward the wreck of
the Chameleon, hanging black and torn
to shreds above us, and saw a second
parachute dropping from it almost in
our track.
Then understood the situation.
Miss Grayman had in some manner
managed to get away with Susan, and
now Payton was pursuing them.
We had long start, but Payton was
following the same line, and it was
evident that he would touch the earth
Ia almost the same spot But l was
not dismayed, and 1 felt wrought up
to heroic temper when Miss Gray
man chung to my arm, sebbing:
"Oh, sir. help us. Save us! My God,
what will become Of me?'
Have no fear, Miss Grayman," /
said, summoning all the steadiness of
nerve that possessed 81 will save

There must have been a great deal
of meaning and Of encouragement In
my words, for faint color and look
of~relief came into the girls wan face.
Save her! Iwould have encountered
an army in her cause.

make safe landing to pay much at

spected the ground beneath us and
saw, as we got nearer. that we were
likely to come down in q marsh. But
there was solid ground, brush covered,
near. and by desperate exertions,
throwing all my weight to one side,
succeeded in swaying the parachute
toward the drier land, so that finally
we struck in a very good place. the

shock In a clump of low, leafy bushes
