School Board Appeals to Young
Men Not to Marry Their
Schoolmams

Castlawood, Nov. 5.-Tbe local
board of education has experienced 30
much difficulty in retaining young
women school teachers, many OF whom
persist in falling in love and getting
married after they cancel their con-
tracts with the board, that u public
warning has been issued to the young
swains of the town that they must
cease capturing the young ONE
teachers for wives. The board of
education says it has the interests OF
the public schools and the young and
growing generation to look after. in
stead OF providing suitable wives for
the young men. The public warming
which has been issued Is as follows:
1--WE want to give notice and fair
warning that the next young man
who attempts to fiirt with or keep
company with one of our fair ..scho, d
MA ams is apt TO get into serious
trouble. Some people seem to labor
under the impression that ali the schoo
board has to do is to secure good -look
ing aud efficient lady teachers and theI
have these fell ,ws lay plans to cap
ture them.
"We admit school ma'ams are aw
fully nice, most enticing and capt vat
lug and that they make ideal help
mates, but when We get a competen,
teacher the members of the school
board like to retain her services al
long as possible. We have no gooc

BUSY BEAVERS
Black Hills Road Flooded From
Back Water of Beaver
Dam

Lead, Nov. County Commission
or MalKson is having a fight on his
hands with the colony of beavers who
have taken possession of a part of
the valley of the Spearish river In
the vicinity of the crossing. He has
moved the county road twice now 10

and will have to nov it the third
time. for he is afraid to dynamite
their dam, and anyhow, they are an
attraction in the canyon that visitors
never tire Of. They have begun an
other dam. and have raised the water
& foot or more at its upper end, and
the result is tnat in places the county
road Is from "a TO three feet under
water. Commissioner Malkson is go.
ing to await the completion of the
new dam by the beavers to see Just
how high they are going to send the
water. and then he Is going to lay
out another road, one that will be so
high that the. beavers will have to
build their dam pretty high. also, in
order to place it under water. He
tried en- several occasions to get an
interview with the patriarch of the
beaver tribe, . large, fat. grey
whiskeie cd animal. but the beaver, after
contemplating him for a moment or
two, has hit the water a slap with his
tail and disappeared beneath the sur
face. The Homestead company and
the board Of county commissioners have
posted signs at the dam, forbidding
anyone to hunt, trap or shoot the
beaver, so it is apparent that they
are there to stay. There is an ares of
woodland. consisting of snch timber AZ
the beavers want, which will keep
them in a supply for the next ten
years. 80 there 10 not much chance Of
the animals vacating their present
quarters, much as the county com
missioners would like to have them.
