Approved March IL, 1918.

Our dispatches from Pierre say that
the road between the state capital and
the Black Hills is crowded with teams,
motors and vehicles of all kinds, and
that they remind old timers Of the days
when everything was brought to the
Hills from the railroads in wagons.
However, it is human freight that is
coming Hillsward, and the people COM
posing it are people who are coming to
escape the heat of the east and to- lounge
and loaf for few weeks in the beauty
spots Of the Hills.

TO the Editor OF EVENING JOURNAL
Sir: What a great pity it is that
folks up around the Court House are
annoyed so. How fortunate they
will be if they do not have more than
the striking of the clock on the Court
House to worry and annoy them be-
fore the year is out. The clock has
been there ever since the Court House
was built, and no complaints until
now. Only a few weeks ago the time
was extended one hour longer for the
saloons to keep open for the convent
ence of certain hotel and some who
attend the theatre. The question is,
why is il that the people in that sec
ton OF the city have become so ner-
vous all once. when they have
stood all these years that are passed
the striking of the clock? What will
they want next?

BURIAL PLACES THAT
REQUIRE ATTENTION

To the Editor Of THE EVENING
JOURNAL
Sir: Reading the note regarding
the condition of the tomb of John
Loland, ! thought perhaps the people
of today would like to know who he
was. He was born i'm Milford on
March 9 1898. His father was Isaac
LOfland, a merchant and his mother
was Cynthia. He wrote for the Even
ing Post and a magazine called The
Casket published in Philadelphia. and
the Blue Hens Chicken, published by
Jcandell and Vincent He died sud
denly while writing "Thc Broken
Heart lie was an honorary mem
Der Of Bellies Lettres, of Dickinson
College, Washington College and
Pennsylvania College. His pros
writings numbered "a, and his poems
lo6. not including those written in his
boyhood days
Speaking of the Lohand tomb-it is
not a headstune-calls to my mind
that the Daughters of the Revolution
or Daughters of 1912 could find tombs
that should be taken care of. One
part of the Old Swedes Church yard
that should have attention is the Cath
clic section of consecrated ground.
whore a humber of refugees from San
Domingo are buried. Madam Jou-
bert, whose husband came over with
Lafayette. was the first engineer in
the United States army-he built
Fortress MonrOe-and the Keatings,

CHANCE FOR LOCAL INVESTORS.

VA lLMlNGTONIANS now have an opportunity to
