Mothers Day Service

The custom of Observing
Mothers Day is becoming more
general every year. In several
states including South Dakota
the governors have issued procla-
nations setting aside day and
asking people to observe it in
honor of the Mothers. This is
not strange when we consider
that it appeals to the tenderest
and most permanent sentiment
in the human breast.

A Judge OF The People

Judge Clay Carpenter with his
wife and the twins, came over
from Lennon, the first of the
week with John Winkel and
spent several days here with
friends. The judge is one of the
most democratic of our circuit
judges. Every man receives the
same cheerful greeting and the
same impartial treatment at his
hands whether he be rich or poor,
of high or low estate. He has
that breadth of vision and that
universal sympathy that makes
and keeps all who come into
contact with him as staunch
friends. The judge is making
an enviable record on the bench
in this twelfth judicial circuit by
his quick discernment of the
merits of the case, by his sure
judgements on matters of law,
and the rapid dispatch of busl-
ness in his court where techni-
calities and wrangling of attor-
neys is a thing unheard, Isabel

CAMPAIGN TO SAVE BABIES
Before All Things, the Need Of Pure
Milk Comes First, According to
All Authorities.

It is estimated that baby nursed
by It's mother has approximately ten
times the chances to live that bottle
fed baby has. All welfare workers,
therefore, are advised to encourage
mothers to make every effort to carry
out this most important maternal
duty.
A clean milk supply is fundamen-
tai need. The ideal is: Nothing short
Of clean milk for everybody. But tho
need for the prompt remedy OF bad
milk conditions il more urgent in its
relation to the welfare Of babies than
to that OF adults, since dirty milk Ia

Of diarrhoe and enteritis, the most fire.

The remedy lies in the intelligent and
effective inspection Of farms, the
means of transportation, and the
shops where milk Is sold, and in ordi-
nances governing the sale Of dipped"
or loose" milk.

of her comrades.
Soon after the establishment OF the
republican government In Marking
the amazons, headed by Miss Shen,
took the lead in demanding the right
of suffrage for women. They pointed
out to the republican leaders that the
women of China had worked for the
revolution quite as hard as the, men.
The assembly in Marking was large
ly composed of men who had been
leaders in the revolutionary secret
societies. These men, being thor
oughly familiar with the work of the
amazons previous to and during the
revolution, could not find it In their
hearts to deny them their wish. The
assembly in Marking accordingly
passed law giving women the right
to vote.
When the overthrow of the Man.
chus had been accomplished President
Sun Vat Sen retired in favor of Yuan
shih-kai, who was then elected pres.
ident. Soon after Yuan's election the
assembly was moved from Marking to
Pekin. The conservative atmosphere
! of Pekin seems to have caused the
legislators to repent of their action in
granting women the right to vote. At
any rate, the law was allowed to be-
come a dead letter in so far as the
national government was concerned.
Several of the southern provinces.
however, kept the compact and al
lowed women to vote and even to
hold Office.
Though disappointed at the apparent
breach of faith on the part of the
national assembly. the suffragettes
were not disheartened. Under the
leadership of Miss Shen they began
a national campaign for woman suf-
frage. They established branches Of
their society in most Of the large cit
les Of China and sent out lecturers to
address mass meetings and to hold
conferences. They began to publish
newspapers, pamphlets and circulars
in the interest Of their cause.
Miss Shen Is admirably fitted for
the position Of leader Of the Chinese
sNRragettes.

Pekin, China--When the ballots Of
China's first presidential election
were counted IT was found that q
woman had received three electoral
votes. The little person who thus
boldly contested honors with DIR. Sun
Vat Sen was Miss Shen Pei Ching,
the commander Of the amazon corps
which formed a part Of the revolu-
tfonary army. With burning desire
to emulate Joan Of Arc she had Or
ganized a company of infantry COM

patriotic az herself. She had secured
for them arms, uniforms and equip

resolute maidens could be seen
marching to battle, each carrying q
heavy rifle and several cartridge
belts. While they were never allow
ed to 60 into action no one doubted
that the amazons would have fought
va1iantly had they been given an op-
portunity..
Before and during the revolution
the amazons had rendered distin-

party. They acted as; messengers,

military men say always adds sub
tie something to the fighting quality
which Is in any man. Some authori-
ties have said that there were 100000
men in the Confederate forces at Get
tysburg to be confronted by 10000
Union troops. Another authority says
that the Confederate force was $4,000
and the Union force $4,000. As 1t was
the armies were pretty nearly equally
divided in strength.
In June, 1863, General Robert e.
Lee began to move northward Lee
concentrated his army at Winchester,
Va, and then started for the Potomac
river, which he crossed to reach the
state Of Maryland. He fully expected
to be followed by General Hooker's
army and so General Stuart with q
large force Of cavalry was ordered by
Lee to keep in front Of Hooker's army
and to check his pursuit of the Con-
federates If 1t was attempted.
Late in June the Confederate force
reached Hagerstown, in the state Of
Maryland. 1t was General Lees in
tention to strike Harrisburg, Pa,
which was great railroad center

recruited and from which all kinds Of
supplies were sent out to the soldiers

the war between the states.
The Union guns at one time ceased

commander thought they had been

Pickett's men made their charge. The

natives to the American soil. The
bravery shown at Gettysburg was Of

shown on every field and which re-

no matter from what race they may
have sprung.
At Gettysburg there was nothing to
choose between the valor Of the North
and the South. The South lost the
fight, but it lost it honorably and
with the prestige Of it's soldiery un-
dimmed. The charges made on that
field have gone down into history as
assaults made under conditions which
every man felt might mean death at
the end. The defenses made at Gettys-
iron in the blood to make perfect. At
Gettysburg Northerners and South
erners replenished their store of re-
spect for their antagonists. The bat
tie marked the high tide of the war
between the states. After it the
but its defense was maintained with
fortitude and in the face of privations
which could not chill the blood of
men fighting for what they thought
was the right.
The Northern armies were persis-
tent in their attacks through the cam
paigns which after few months were
started aginst the objective point
Richmond. Brave men here and brave
men there, and after the end came it
was the qualities which keep COM

soldiers of the North and South SO

work again for the good of a COM

The great battle of Charlottesville
was fought not long before the oppos-

on the field Of Gettysburg. Chancel-
louisville was a Confederate victory.
The Southern government believed
that the victory should be followed up
by an invasion of the North for, &C.
