standpoint the mothers rension bill,
which has been enacted into law in
Missouri, New York and Illinois, and
is preparing to make an onslaught on
the next legislature asking for the
passage of the same law in South Da.
kota, and many other of the women s
clubs In South Dakota are also begin.
ming to take a deep interest in the
measure. The enactment of the bill in
Missouri was secured only after a hard
fight led by Governor Hadley, and il
is conceded by those who have stnd.
led the bill that it will be of great
benefit TO the state of Missouri, es.
pecially in the communities where there
is a congestion of the population. The
women's clubs of the states who are
interested in this bill, feel greatly en-
couraged by the attitude Of Senator La
Toilette, who in his address before the
Minnesota legislature, recommended
its enactment.
Many of the members of the South
Dakota Legislature who have been con
suited by the ONE who ale working
for the bill, have declared themselves
AS being in favor of its enactment.

Flandreau, Jan. Moody county
having voted bonds for the erection of
a new court house. the county commits
sioners will meet this week to decide
upon a location for the new building
and also to inspect plans and specifi
cations for the structure. There is a
wide diversity of opinion as to the
site in F~landreau, and the agitation
has become 80 keen that the citizens
of Egan have started a petition to re-
move the county seat from Flandreau
to Egan. For the removal of the
county seat to that point the Egan
people offer a site free of cost and will
give from $40, 900 to $50, 900 toward
the construction of a new court house.
The county commissioners, in spite
of the petition being circulated, in
innate that they will pay little or. no
attention to the Egan offer, and will
in all probability proceed to the erec-
tion of the building. 1t is intimated
from Egan that unless the commits
sioners give heed to their petition some
legal measures will be resol ted TO, to
put a stop to doing anything toward
the construction of the building.

Hal Johnson heads the company and
as an impersonator of the fair sex he

The weekly weather bulletin issued
by the Washington bureau Sunday
night says: The cold wave now pre-
vailing over the northwestern and
western portions of the country will
extend eastward and southwark during
the next two days, reaching the At
lantic states Monday night or Tuesday.
Owing to the upbuilding of an exten
sive high pressure area wei the middle
Atlantic ocean, the cold weather over
the south Atlantic states will not be
severe. but in the gulf states the cold
wave will be general. The cold
weather will be followed by some
moderation about Tuesday we the
northwest and extreme central west,
and after the middle of the week to
the eastward and the southwark, al
though the temperatures will probably
remain below the normal for the ses-
son. The week will open cloudy east
of the Rocky mountains except in the
northwest. with snow over the north
ern and central and rain over the south
ern districts, but by Wednesday gen.
orally fair weather should prevail. A
disturbance will probably appear over
the northwest toward the close of the
week, bringing with it increasing
cloudiness and rising temperature.
