City Up Against It
Cannot Get Gravel for Improv'
ing the Streets.

Gravel for the city streets is
badly needed, in order to make
them stand up against wet wealth
er. 1t was supposed that gravel
could be secured from the Mil
waukee railroad, by having them
haul it in from one of their pits;
but Mayor Knapp was informed
by the local agent that the COM
pany has been forbidden to sell
gravel by the Interstate COM
merce commission. Perhaps the
Commercial lclub might induce the
railroad to donate the gravel for
the good Of the cause. In Minneso-
ia the Northern Pacific and Great
Northern both haul crushed
stone free from the state reform
atory for road purposes, and
there is no reason to think the
Milwaukee would not be equally
as public spirited.
The nearest place to get gravel
overland is ten miles away.

True Happiness.

After all is said and done, the
final goal toward which we are
each individually striving is that
of a more comfortable, and there
fore more happy life. And to
reach this goal it is necessary
for US to be more or less success
full in a business way. But the
trouble with our scheme of living
is that we set no fair limits upon
what business success is, and
keep striving forward for more
land and money and bigger hous-
es and barns until their belated
possession brings US no enjoy
ment. The man who can get
happiness out of a ham sandwich
and a friend to share it with is
actually better off than the man
who goes storming thru life too
busy to make friends until he
has grown rich and old. Some.
how the kind you get then are
something like green-picked
apple.-Farm, Stock and Home.

Hot Ball Game

Last Saturday the Browns
Vally high school base ball team
went to Sisseton to play the re.
turn game. The game was hot
one, both teams fighting hard to
the finish, which was close.
Hard hitting featured the game.
In the first half of the ninth in>
ming, with two men out and Sis.
seton two in the lead, the Valley
boys made q grand rally, and by
F, punching their hits tied the
score. The game then ran on to
the eleventh inning, neither side
scoring, but the Valley boys
soon began finding it" again,
and the result was, Browns Val.
ly 10, Sisseton 9. This was the
Valleys first game away from
home, and the boys made show
ing to be proud of.-Browns

What Does it Mean?

The Great Northern is ship
ping in quantity Of railroad ties
and piling them up in Browns
Valley, which has aroused sus-
picion that an extension of the line
may be contemplated. The
building of the Fairmount-Veblen
line is thought to be a move on
the part of the Chicago, Mil
waukee and ST. Paul road. 1t
has been understood for years
that the Milwaukee and Great
Northern roads have had an
agreement not to extend their
lines further than Sisseton and
Browns Valley, but if the Mil
waukee has sought to break this
agreement, or in other words to
get around it by getting behind
the supposedly Independent Fair
mount -Veblen road, it would be
natural for the Great Northern
to get ready to meet the compete
tion.-Browns Valley Tribune.

Some of the ideas which have
been tried in other courts in
tempering justice with mercy
are bring tried here by Judge
McNulty:
Several days ago two young
men were brought to trial in the
circuit court and found guilty of
grand larceny in the theft of a
fur overcoat belonging to former
Mayor Rock. When the two
were called up for sentence the
Judge said:

More Railroad
Rumors Rife
Sisset0n May Soon Get Two More
Lines of Road.

Cotton, S. D.-The South Da-
kota Central railroad contem-
plates making an important ex-
tension. The road was built by
South Dakotans. Starting at
Sioux Falls it was first built to
Cotton, which remained the ter
minus for year or two, when
the line was constructed to Wat
ertown through a rich section of
the state. Cotton men have kept
in close touch with reliable
authority connected with the
road and from this source it is
learned that the line will be ex-
tended from Watertown to Han.
kinson, N. D., a distance of 125
miles.
A glance at the map shows that
such an extension as outlined
above would tap a wonderfully
rich strip of country and would
probably give Hankinson rail
connections with Sisseton and
other important South Dakota
points, adding to our prestige as
one of the best distributing
centers in the two Dakotas. The
terminus of the road would carry
with it the employment of many
railroad men who would make
Hankinson their home and ado

payroll Of transportation compa
nies at this point. .-Hankinsor

She had heard of her boys

Just Be Glad

On, heart of mine, we shouldn't worry so!
What we have missed of calm we couldn't
have, you know.
What we have met of stormy pain,
And of sorrows driving rain,
We can better meet again,
If they blow.
We have erred in that dark hour, we have
KNOWN
When the tears fell with the showers. all
alone,
Were not shine and shadow blent
AS the gracious Master meant?
Let us temper our content
With His Own
For we know not every morrow can be sad
So, forgetting all the sorrows we have had,
; Let us fold away our fears
And put by our foolish tears,
And through all the coming years,
Just be glad.

no mistake has been made in
getting him for state secretary.
The convention broke up few
minutes before nine o'clock with

the Importance of Building up
Adult Classes" This too was
followed by good discussion.
The new state secretary, l. N.
Halliday of Sioux Falls, recently
from Massachusetts, was intro
duced. His talk was on Points
that Make the Good Teacher"
and some of the essentials to
success were written out on a
black board. A few of them were
piety, promptness, preparation,
cordiality, conservation, enthu-
siasm, earnestness and expect
ancy. The talk was brimful of
splendid points and should have
been of great value and encour-
agement to all teachers in the
Sunday school.
The afternoon closed with an
interesting Question Box
EVENING SESSION.
At Z o'clock there was a half
hours song service, led by Rev.
j. w. Christianson, which was
heartily enjoyed. This was fol.
lowed by a ladies quartet com.
posed of Miss Gould, Mrs.
Brown, Mrs. Thomas and Mrs
Stadstad. This was followed by
an address on Sunday school
work by Rev. e. Redmayne, who
is very earnest speaker. His
subject covered a considerable
scope, but the boy problem was
pretty thoroughly gone over.
The next number was chorus
by Mrs. Brown, Miss Brewster
Miss Streeter, Miss Oliver, Mrs
| Taplin, Mrs. Thomas, Mrs. Stad
stad and Miss Morris. Mrs. Os
man was accompanist.
The closing address was by
Mr.. Halliday, and it certainly
was a splendid talk. There was
much in it of great interest te
both parents and Sunday schoo
teachers. One of the great points
made was that if children are
lost, it is not on account O.
Adams sin, but because Of tht
carelessness and sin Of the par
ents. The speaker held tina
children brought up prayerfull,
and carefully, need no conversion
but are already saved from tn,
