BIGGEST CELEBRATION I'm STATE
Preparations for the Six Days Celebration Next Week
Rapidly Nearing Completion, and Everything will be
in Readiness Monday Morning

Everybody in town and vicinity are
up on their toes these days, making
preparations for entertaining the
thousands of people who will be with
us next week during our six days
celebration. A perusal of the pro
gram for each day will convince all
that there is no small amount of work
connected with carrying it out, and it
will be carried out to the letter. 1t

Daily Mail Starts Monday.

At last the long desired daily mail
has materilized. 1t will start
Monday morning, July LIST. This will
give us daily mail to Winner via
Carter and also to Murdo via White
River. Both routes start from here
and Dallas Shaw has been awarded
the contracts Tor hauling the mail to
both Carter and White River. That
We people Of Wood are greatly pleased
is putting it mildly. We are ticsled
muchly, for it puts us in daily touch
with both railroads and the outside
world both east and west. Next thing
to railroad, it is the best thing we
could have gotten. Congressman
Martin deserves much credit for his
able assistance in securing the route
and such good service We thank him.

The Scenic Highway Handy.

The cross state auto road from
Sioux Falls to Rapid City, known as
the Scenic Highway, which goes
through Murdo and other towns on
the Milwaukee Ry. north of us. is
rapidly developing into something
more than name. Much enthusiasm
is being cheated along the route and
work will progress rapidly when the
details are all worked out. Although
we are not on the road, it is only a
short auto drive to it-about 35 miles
and we can take advantage of it on
a trip to the eastern or western part
Of the state.

About 1900 acres OF school land
in Mellette county has been leased by
Auditor Cummins, most Of it to home
stcaders for grazing purposes. That
sounds good to US for the reason that
with quarter section of land on
which to raise crops and section on
which to pasture his stock, the home
steader should be able to make for
tune in a few years, 1t also indicates
that the new settler is going into the
stock raising business along with his
farming, which is wise move. Farm
ing alone, without the raising Of
stock, never was success in any new
country any more than il is in the
older settled countries, aud we predict
the success OF every homesteader who
raises horses, cattle, swine and poultry
along with his farming efforts.

team from Shoemaker. And it was
some game, too. Neither side scored
until about the sixth inning when a

the score stood three to four in Shoe
makers favor at the close OF the ninth

races and horse races were enjoyed
by the large crowd present. and a

RELIEF FUND FOR
WAR SUFFERERS

OF Continental Europe are sending
out nurses and hospitallsupplies IN
order to mitigate in some measure
the terrible suffering entaiIed By
such winter campaign.
Because of the distance, the
American Red Cross will not send

but it earnestly appeals. to the gem
crosby OF our people to aid the sick
and wounded soldiers Of all the
countries involved.
Though an armistice/ may be de-
clared, the great number of sick
and wounded must be cared for dur
ing a number of weeks and the
troops must remain under arms in
the field for months during the Sc
we're winter weather, with all the
suffering and sickness this viii en-
tail.
The services of the American Red
Cross will be rendered Vimpartially
to all the combatants concerned, but
it is, of course, open to any sub
scriber to designate a donation for
the benigerent parties, and instruc-
tons to that effect viii be strictly
observed.

the fighting in this particular war IS

Child viii Surprise One Who

How many words does the ordinary
child know? Fifty? Wrong A hun
dred? Wrong again. Five hundred.
for a wild guess? A little nearer. but
not much. The truth is that people
underestimate the number of words
their children can speak.
Take paper and pencil. follow the
child for several days. several weeks,
putting down every new word that is
uttered. You'll find out some things
that will surprise you. And. when the
word Child" is used, II does not refer
to boy or girl OF seven or eight, but
one Of three.
An Investigation recently made by
following child at that age and not
ing every word that was used, showed
that 1t had memorized In different
words They covered practically
everything with which the child came
IN contact. and were words the child
had never heard before. ...
Another Investigation OF words used
by children between l year and 10
months old showed that the lowest vo-
cabulary that was reported included
the use Of 60 words. The highest was
232 words. From two years on. the
vocabulary of child increases rapid,
ly. until at three years the. average
child has vocabulary OF at least 1000
words.
