many Oriental peoples. The exca-
vations made by the Z. of ?. in the
ruins of different Babylonian cit
les are well shown. The boys en-

ments written in clay which was
hardened by burning. Some Of
these documents read by the boys
telling of trials, selling of slaves,
adjustments Of troubles, irriga-
ton rights, ETC., were written 1000
years ago. The boys saw a dupli-
cate of the Rosetta stone and lis
tened with interest how the three
languages it contained was the
means Of giving light on Egyptian
hieroglyphics.
The mummies of Egypt as well
as the totem poles and masks of
Alaskan Indians excited much cur
iosity. The Commercial Museum
exhibit Of japanese, Chinese and
Filipino activities was enjoyed
though the time was limited.

CONGRATULATIONS FOR NEWARK

Newark has reason for c0ngrat-
ulation. The installation Of
Sewer System, a subject of serious
consideration for years, was APP
proved Oh Saturday by a strongly
decisive vote. Although there was
opposition it was i'll most part OBJ
lection to minor details of the bill
which are now accepted with ex-
preston of hearty cooperation.
These details were really of minor
consideration compared to the vi
tai Importance Of the real issue.
They were matters of honest diff
ference of opinion. But now the
question has been decided, all citi-
zens truly interested in the town s
welfare will accept the verdict and
render service to those in charge Of
the work.
The action on Saturday was in
keeping not only with the modern
and scientific way but the common
sense method Of up-to-date SANTA
ton. In word, the citizens have
decided to assume the responsible
ity and perform their part in max
ing Newark an ideal place to live.
Aside from this, we have shown
ourselves worthy of the approval
of the outside public and have gain
ed the confidence Of the whole
State, which people, were right,
fully serious in their criticism.
1t is hoped every one will enter
into the spirit Of the improvement
and we predict that in few years
we will point with pride to the
town that assumes its proper re-
sponsibilities, that is-Newark, the
Town Beautiful and the Commun
ity worth while.

A Trip With The Boy Scouts

"On to Cobb's Creek was the
slogan of q khaki-clad youths
"hiking' in approved military
fashion down Depot Road early
Friday morning. They were men,
bers Of the Newark Troop Of Boy
Scouts. DR.. Rowan and the writer
enacted the roles of camp followers.
At the Pennsylvania station we
entrained" for Wilmington, 60
ing from that city to Philadelphia
by boat.
The bracing river air but served
to whet the already keen appetites
of the Scouts, who had started on
the trip without breakfasting, and
raid was made on the commissary.
The Doctor, with real Scoutcraft
had discovered the only warm place
on the upper deck, beside the smoke
stack, and staked his claim there.
Following a good example others
did likewise.
On board the same boat were 80
members of Troop 2, of Old Swedes
Church, Wilmington, under com
mand Of Scout Master Garrick NAL
lery. Rev. r. L. Wolven of Old
Swedes, accompanied the troop as
chaplain. The troop is three years
old and now has two assistant
scout masters, John Quinn and
Willard Schafer, who have "risen
from the ranks. -
From the wharf in Philadelphia
we went by Elevated to Goth street
terminal, hiking from there to
camp. The boys were obliged to
use their scout craft to find camp,
and the did it in a manner befitting
veterans.
From the heights above, we OBJ
tanned a fine view Of the encamp-
ment. White tents against a green
background Of field and forest, col
umns of blue smoke rising from in
Vulnerable campfres, bugles blow
ing, orderlies hurrying to and fro,
and hundreds of Scouts engaged in
drills or various camp duties form
ed very martial spectacle. The
Doctors description was very fit

SLANDER--THE DEVILS MASTER
PIECE

"In thy right hand carry gentle
peace to silence envi0us tongues. "
Slander, Sir, by my faith in
Truth, it was Slander.
Whatever your opinion of his
ideas and policies, Theodore Roosa-
Welt has again shown himself to be
the MAN. The result of the trial
is not alone the conviction Of Edi-
tor Newell but of every newspaper
in the country, who, though know
ING the outrage of the slander, gave
silent voice to it, in their failure to
nail the lie. Honor and Truth III
metropolitan newspapers would
have rendered justice. Fair play
TO the Reading Public, aside from
the man himself, would have denied
it in statements from his former as
sociates.
Every newspaper Newell was
only an echo), who, by silence, fail
ed to render justice to one of her
foremost citizens, has been pro-
nounced guilty of slander.
No man in the whole country
worthy of consideration, under
oath, has dared to stand sponsor for
the lie.
Aside from the prominence or
the merits of the case, every COM
munity can well take warning les
son of the danger, to say nothing
of the injustice, Of creating or coun-
tenancing what is ordinarily known
as gossip, yet in Courts OF law IS
interpreted as Slander, the Devil S
own Masterpiece.
This trial is one of the few in
stances where Truth overlook the
Lie and throttled it before the
world.
All men, either big or small, who
make honest attempts at public
service have felt its sting. From
this striking lesson, it behooves us
all to have a care-daring not to
say in private or on the corner what
in type, would bring us before the
bar Of public opinion and Justice
with the verdict-Slander.

IMPRESSION MADE ON THE
SCOUTMASTER

The Scout Movement is a clean
one. Smoking and profanity is not
part Of scout life. Responsible
ity was noticably a part of a real
scout. Kindliness and friendliness
everywhere was manifested. The
scout will succeed in life becaus he
is clean, trained, and physically
well developed. He not only can
take care of himself but he can lead
others to the same attainment. The
Scoutmaster was well pleasd with
tn behavior Of the local troop. Boys

MAKING READY
State Fair Will Open at Huron
Monday, Sept. 8

Huron, Sept. 5.-Everything is il
practical readiness for the opening Of
the great South Dakota state fair and
exposition on Monday, Sept. sth. The
new brick dairy building is ready foi
creamery and dairy exhibits. The
large all-glass thirty foot refrigerator
In the center of the building is ready
to contain perishable displays. The
magnificent new machinery hall, with
it's two hundred foot frontage il by
all odds the finest building In the
northwest. Machinery displays OF
all kinds have been arriving In Huron
by the car load for the past two
weeks.
Machinery now swarms with trac-
tors. large and small, steam and gas,
while the hundred laborers are still
working night and day in feverish
attempts to get everything ready for
the grand opening on Monday. The
fact that the South Dakota state fair
has more demonstration room for trac-
tors than any other fair in the world
has induced a remarkable list of entries
for this year.
All the buildings, grounds and equip
ment have been especially groomed for
the Coming week. W~aterworks, iced
hydrants, rest rooms. toilets and other
conveniences are lavishly provided.
The race track has received an un-
usual amount of skilled attention to
make ready for the fastest speed pro
gram In the history of South Dakots.
The infeld of the race track in front
of the grand stand is being prepared
for the grand pioneer days spectacle
and Pains Twentieth Century fire.
works and pyrotechnios. All shows,
concessions and displays on midway
are alive with labcrers, erecting tents,
surfacing the ground and stretching
banners. One glance at the state fair
grounds even two weeks in advance OF
the 1918 exposition convinces one that
the coming event will surpass all
others in every department.
