WHAT DO YOU MEAN I'm APPLE
PIE ORDER?

The juicy apple pie is not the neat
est looking thing on the pantry shelf.
Yet when one wishes to indicate ex-
IRENE neatness, the first thing one
thinks about is the expression lin
appIe-pie order" To find the reason
for this, one must go back to the old
fashioned housewives, who decorated
their apple pies with little turrets of
pie crust. These were set in place
with the greatest precision, in rows,
or, as the oId-fashioned word was, in
orders" So, when anything was
particularly neat or orderly, it was
said to be like an apple-pie row or or
der. Hence the expression in APP

A DRY MOON

Ever since the Headlight man was a
beautiful little boy he has heard about
how the moon influenced the weather,
as well rs garden sass, sucking pigs,
and the time to cut your hair, but our
authorities did not agree on what con-
stituted a dry moo One school of
scientists claimed that when the
saucer-shaped moon stood in the west
ern heavens fiat enough to hold water
that that was a dry moon, because no
water could be spilled on the earth
when 1t was in that position. That
theory had a perfectly reasonable
sound to ii, but there was another sect
that claimed that that moon was the
wettest noon there was, because il
would hold an Indians powder horn,
when hung on it, and that meant that
there would be so much rain thai the
Indian could not go ahunt' ng.
In our own researches after truth
we have observed that one of these
theories seemed to have been about as
much experience to back it UP as the
other had, and we have always been a
little puzzled as to which was correct,
the only definite conclusion we have
been able to arrive at being thai the
position of the new moon in the sky
certainly governed the weather to
come. This could not be denied. for
we always had weather to correspond
with n of these theories or the
other, proving conclusively that it was
the noon that did it.
Now We probably have been in.
f1uenced in our habits of thought by
the age in which we live, when is not
the powderhorn age, the invention of
the breech loading gun and the cart.
ridge having made a powderhorn a
rare curiosity, so we have had a lean
ing toward the weather theory men
toned first. 1t did not seem reason
able that an Indian could hang his
powderhorn on a horn of the moon
anyhow, but we all know that rain
comes out OF the sky in the most un
accountable way sometimes, and we
have all seen q saucer-shaped moon
that looked as though 1t would hold
water and hence the saucer theory
looked like the n that would make q
stronger appeal to the modern scfenti

OLD FORT r

a newspaper of Pierre refers to a
time when there was little besides a
trading post where Fort Pierre now
stands" referring to the past that lies
beyond the era OF settlement. That is
a mistake. The Fort Pierre trading
post of old was located a couple of
miles, more or less, up the Missouri
from where Fort Pierre now stands,
the Fort Pierre of today being then an
indian village of a few log houses. 1t
was in 1876 that the channel of the
Missouri left the landing at Fort
Pierre, and John Hornick of Sioux
City, a Black Hills f%reighter, built a
warehouse at the mouth of Bad river
and that was the beginning of the pres
n Fort Pierre, the old site being
abandoned. The first encampment of
Black Hills invaders was on the site of
the old trading post, and from there
John Dillon freighted the first supplies
into the Black Hills. That encamp-
ment was broken up by troops from
Fort Sully and it's occupants were out
of sight on the trail to the Black Hills
before the soldiers arrived to dispos-
sess them. This Is a little scrap of

"MOTHER" THE BALM FOR EVERY
SORROW

Every day is Mothers day. We
never knew a day without mother, and
thank God, We never shall. Back as
far as memory carries US We find her.
She is the first person we came to
know. Her face bent over the cradle
in which we lay. Her voice was the
first we heard in the morning and the
last we heard at night.
AS we grew through boyhood and
girlhood, she was always there; there
to wipe away the tears, to pick the
thorns from our fingers, to kiss the
bruises, to mend our torn garments,
to cook for us, wash for us, pray for
Us.
When we left the old home hers was
the last face we saw as we turned the
bend in the road. She stood shading
her tear-dimmed eyes with her hand,
looking, looking-and still praying.
We came back and went again. She
was always mother.
No word exists That can define her
it were sacrilege to attempt it. We
can liken her to nobody and to moth
ing. She stands alone.
Is she still here, as we have always
known her? Then happy, son, happy
daughter. Is she only a memory?
Then blessed possession, for she is
still ours. Death annot lake her
from Us. The years are powerless to
blot out her image. Ae we shall sink
into the long sleep her dear face will
look into ours.
Her presence and her memory are
so interviewer with all the best that
we think and feel and purpose, that to
lose her would be to reduce our whole
life to ruin.
o woman, how sublime is your mis-
sion of motherhood!
No throne is so lofty as the throne
of motherhood. No government has
SO great power as does the magic
scepter of motherhood. No kingdom
is SO cur as is the kingdom of
motherhood.
States change, governments perish
and nations migrate, all things ebb and
flow, but Mother is Mother, from the
beginning to the end of time. She
changes not. Her day is yesterday, to-
