/ This morning the faculty and stu
dents Of the high school listened TO
an excellent address on Character
Building delivered by County SUI
perintendent of Schools A. Lee
Hampton.
Mr.. Hampton stated that character
means to engraye and that our char
acter is something which is engraved.
The character which we have from
day to day is that which is engraved
! upon our being. Good reputation is
an excellent thing, though not so i'm
portant as character.
| In building anything We must keep
in mind that there must be n foun-
! dation. The foundation is being
made during our school days. Char
acter Is formed at the impressiona-
BILE age. AS Shakespeare says.
| These trees shall be my books and
| in their barks my thoughts I'll char
acter." AS Mr. Swift puts 1t, The
school age Is an acid period in which
we are capable of doing things that
We can not do at any other time.
AS another person has said school
is not preparation for life. ii is
| life"
The building of character involves
the physical, mental and moral. The
| physical is important. perhaps the
most important. for without il the
mental and moral development would
be imperfect.
superintendent Hampton empha-
sized the fact that we are masters of
our own destiny. lie spoke of the
mental activities and the broader
view of today and of the Importance
of measuring up to the demands of
the times. lie said are science and
| literature are elements which enter
into the superstructure of our char
acter. No character should be con
sidered finished or completed in this
/ life. for we should have such a
high ideal that we can not reach the
goal.
MIR. Hampton gave nine incentives
which are well worth the careful
consideration of young people.
T.. Desire for good standing.
2. Desire for appreciation.
3. Desire for knowledge
/ 4. Desire for efficiency
3. Desire for self control.
Il 6. Desire for future good.

AMERICANS REPRESENTED At.
PARIS AUTOMOBILE EXPOSITION
Associated Press.

Paris, Jan. 15ESeven American
makers are well represented at the
French automobile exposition this
month. The cars and the relatively
lew prices have excited considerable
discussion among French manufac-
turers as to whether the time has
not come to discourage importation
by stiff tariff.
The opinion of the French auto
mobile men is that the American su-
premacy in cheap and light car man
uiacture is an industrial one, bound
up in their ability to organize fac
tories for turning out large numbers
Of automobiles of the same model
a thing which it would be next to
impossible to carry through with a
French factory organization.

Congressman Charles Henry Burke
of South Dakota was born on a farm in
Genesee county. N. Y. April l. 1861;
was educated in the public schools of
Batavia. n. Y; moved to Dakota ter
ritory in 1882; entered and settled up
on a homestead in Beadle county, and
moved to Hughes county in March.

but has never actively engaged in the
practice of law. having had charge Of
closing up the affairs of a farm loan
company. and engaging in a general
real estate and investment business; is
married and has three daughters and
one son; was elected to the legislature
in 1894 and reelected in 1896; was
elected to the Fifty-sixth, Fifty-sev-

even more wonderful is the films
record of it, The very cathedral of
1888 furnishes the background of the
play flashed on the theatre screen.
Actors costumed in the Paris of that
day once more invest with life char
acters long since, dead. The whole
pageantry of life in medieval times
is enacted on the films. Notre Dame,
unchanged by the coming and going
of the centuries, is there for modern
eyes as it was for those of the middle
ages.
Probably no production of the mo-
tion-film maker offers such pleasure
to the imagination as this causes the
screen spectator to forget the present
and beckons him back through the
centuries to witness the stir and
hustle of life of the medieval city.

ONE CAUSE FOR HIGH MONEY.

In speaking of high money! it is
pointed out that people who have in
quired into the source of this increase
in loans say that very great proper
ton of it has been caused by the num-
berless new buildings that have gone
up all over the country, for many Of
which there has been no need. 1t is
suggested that it is necessary to go
no further than the downtown section
|of Manhattan to find an excellent
example of this craze for overbuild-
ing. New office buildings there have
been going up constantly for years.
Much the same conditions appear to
have existed in all parts of the coun-
try. In Seattle, for instance, they
have built skyscrapers far beyond
their requirements. In Waco, Tex.
which is a small city. they have a
twenty-three story office building.
Such enterprises are. comparatively
speaking. reproductive, for they
bring in a very low interest return
and large amount of capital is sunk
in them.

RECALLING THE CENTURIES.

Those who can should witness the
Pathe Freres' wonderful motion-film
:. Notre Dame de Paris adapted from
Victor Hugo's masterpiece of that
name, published in 1881.
The great French novelist wove his
story about the stately Cathedral of
Our Lady. His romance takes the
reader back to 1883, toward the close
of the reign of the eleventh Louis.
At that time this magnificent edifice,
which has looked down upon the
stormy history of France for $50
years, had already witnessed the pass
ing of more than three centuries.
Hugo conducts the reader through
the aisles, the galleries and the roofs
|of the cathedral; along crooked
streets long since vanished and of
others still existing. And, inter
woven through all is the tragedy OF
the dancing girl, the archdeacon OF
the cathedral. the captain of the
kings guard, and the hunchback
IGringoire.
Wonderful indeed is the tale but
