Hendricks Is facing a problem re.

citizens will have to thrash out in the
near future. Mr.. Smelser, ST., says
that not enough current is being used
to sustain the plant on the basis which
1t Is conducted now and that the rev.

some source or other or 1t will be
necessary to shut down. He says
there are twenty or thirty residences

recent meeting Of the village council
and explained the position of the
Lighting Co. It is q matter, OF course,
In which the council is helpless but
at the same time the members Of the
board are willing to do anything legiti-
mate within their power to keep the
lights going Citizens will have to get
together and q II the problem can
be solved In some way az It certainly
would create q commotion, and NO end
OF Inconvenience, to have the lights

them and depending on them.

do not know what they are talking

not be grown in Brookings county We

But will George III please rise and
tell the Register just what he knows
and just how much he has grown or
even seen.
Not very long ago our good friend
George III in company with a few boon
companions CHANGED to be meander-
ing along the banks of the Missouri

OF Pierre and accidently they discover

strange PLAINTIFF like of which none
OF them had ever seen. The good and
learned George III said: 1T must be

claim and the discussion both pro

muddy flowed peacefully at their
feet. Now this was at Pierre. Mind
YOU, Mr.. Editor, and strange things
