 Keep up your agitation for jus tice for the farm housewife. Dig as deep as you can and not drive the farmer from you. Keep at it, until you win. There is on many farm every convenience for the business of farming, but little or none for the business of hOme-making. The barn door hinge is fixed today, the kitchen door hinge must be fixed some time when we get time for such things.
 One phase that 1 would urge would be that the child on the farm be given at regular inter- ValS a certain amount of time in which he may engage in any past time that is generally approved. He may fish, read, visit approv- ed places, or just do nothing as the child pleases, for a given length of time, and he will have this time and may plan in ad- vance for it's enjoyment. know ing that he will have it for his own use, barring unforeseen con- tingencies, and then let this time be traded, if 1t does not suit best to give it then. for other time or as one would trade for anything else. If the master of the childs time wants the child during the play-time belonging to him, let a trade be made in which the child has fair chance to trade as he pleases about it. If the child wants money, agree upon the price; if he wants other time give 1t to him with some time to boot" thrownin. Be fair with the child if the child is to be fair with u e master of his time.
 Another thing; Every child should have a stipulated small wage given him at regular inter vals, or he should have oppor- tunity to earn a small sum at re- gular intervals, and he shouldS Sbe allowed to spend it as he pleases barring dirty chewing gum. cigar cites, tobacco and such habit forming and uselesf alticles. - Progressive Farmer.

MORE CHILDREN
BORN IN 1914
YEAR JUST CLOSING SAW IN
CREASE IN BIRTH RATE
DEATHS SIX MORE.

Young sons and daughters of
Dawson county's population increas-
ed during the year just coming to a
close over the number in 1918. The
stork carried 1923 children to proud
parents in 1914. while the babies
who arrived in 1913 totalled PSI.
That the city and county have a
larger population than a year ago,
without estimating the families who
have moved in, is indicated by the
fact that there are only six more
deaths than in 1913. In 1914 there
have been IA deaths thus far re-
corded i'll the county.
During the year there have been
eleven certificates for citizenship is
sued by the clerk of courts, S. Cat
trel. and eighteen other foreigners
have filed their applications for
naturalization papers. The marriage
licenses have also shown an increase
over last year. Licenses issued for
1914 were 1863, while the number
of last year was 1874 certificates.
, Thirteen marriages have been I'M
lucky, as shown by that number of
DEGREES issued by the clerk for the
past year. Two others have been
granted in the courts, but the de-
crees have not been issued by the
clerk. Ten of the divorces were
granted in the April term of court
and three in the November session.

5O2 DRINKS IN
1914 ARRESTED
FLOWING BOWL HAS GREATEST
ATTRACTION FOR CITY PRIS-
IONEHS.

greatest offenders against Mitchell
city ordinances during the year 1914,
according to the records of Chief of
Police Wood Smith. OF the 40 ar
rests made thus far during the year
just closing. 502 were for being
found drunk in a public place.
Nineteen prisoners were arrested
by the city police on the charge of

which literally covers a multitude of
sins, and for various smaller and
minor offenses, Al arrests were made.
Cash fines have been paid into. the
city to the amount of ~$1,765.4O.,
while the cost of feeding the prison
ers has been reduced to a minimum
by Chief Smith to the sun of $117.-

Not only has the city received some
recompense from it's offenders III a
pecuniary way, but has had 165 days
of labor from the city prisoners. The
entire amount of Jail sentences dur
ing ths--year has been a total of L.
465 days. If one man had to serve
this time, it would amount to four
years and five days.

KING ALBERT, RISKING HIS LIFE -
WHILE AT FRONT. SAYS HE WILL
LEAD HIS ARMY INTO BRUSSELS

eve fire. He was ayerse to DISCUSS
ing the ruin which has overwhelmed
the country, saying simply:
You will know something Of it
yourself tomorrow when you see our
destroyed towns"
"Your Majesty, it has been predict
ed that you will re-enter your capital
within three months?" the CORES
pondent said.
Will Lead Army Into Brussels.
The King shook his head sadly,
saying:
mot so soon. but some day / shall
ride into Brussels at the head OF the
Belgian army"
Bidding the correspondent good
night with a warm handshake, the
King ended the interview.
King Albert is the commander Of
his army in fact IS we'll as In name.
Its reorganization into q compact
fighting force of less. than half OF its
former size, but infinitely superior
in sheer efficiency, is due principally
to the Kings work and inspiration.
He has surrounded himself with
young and enthusiastic officers who
already are veterans In experience,
and this new personnel works with
the utmost harmony.
The Kings chief support is Queen
Elizabeth, who lives only a few miles
away at a place. also on. Belgian soil,
where she has complete charge OF
one of the largest military hospitals.
No other women except nurses are
permitted to approach the Belgian
line. Even the wives of the Highest
officers are not allowed to see their
husbands at the front.

King Modest and Shy.

King Albert also was anxious to
have the American people know, as
he puts it, the facts Of the story OF
how his troops, demoralized and dis
organized by their disheartening re-
treat almost across the entire limits
of their own country, turned at bay
along the User and held back the
Germans-there at frightful cost In
killed and wounded to their army, and
of the almost i~ncalculable loss suffer
ed in the deliberate inandation by
it's owners of the most valuable agri-
cultural part of the country.
"In one of those terrible nine days
IN the trenches along the Yser,"ot
king said, II know that seven hun
dred of our brave Belgian soldiers
were killed outright
With the modesty and shyness
which marks his whole III OF
address, King Albert continued:
II believe ! am not claiming too
much to say that our army saved
! Dunkirk and Calais at the battle OF
the User"
The King spoke with the warmest
affection of his soldiers now in the
trenches, praising their good spirits.
When the correspondent expressed a
desire to see the Belgian soldiers
, actually in the trenches, he said:
"You may, but I cannot promise
that this will be without risk. Mrs.
Asuuith expressed the same desire
while she was visiting my wife q
short time ago. When the party was
taken to the second line of trenches
a big German shell fell near by, and
lit did not make our guests feel COM
Portable"
When the correspondent inquired
regarding the Kings own, safety.
King Albert smilingly replied:
Tribute to Mr.. Whitlock.
I'VE must live under she'll fire
here"
Later inspection showed this re-
mark to literally true. as scarcely o
square mile Of Belgium left under
the rule Of her King is free from the
danger of shell fire. &
King Albert repeated his express
lion Of appreciation Of American re-
lief for his people as the c~orrespon-
dent was about to leave, especially
singing out Mr.. Brand Whitleek, the
American Minister to Belgium, and
iMr. Hugh s. Gibson, secretary Of the
legation, for their efforts in BELGIUM
behalf, He declared that Mt. Whit
lock had done splendid work in Brus-
sells as the mediator between the Boil
gian people and their conquerors and
expressed the hope that Mr.. Whit
lock would remain at his post Until
the end Of the war.
"And / understand that Mr. Whit
lock came to Brussels for a rest" re
marked the King with a dry smile.
King Albert expressed particularly
warm admiration for Mr.. Gibson

Grand HEADQUARTERS of the King
of the Belgians in West Flanders,
Belgium. Sunday via London.-In
the council chamber of an ancient
Flemish town hall, from which he is
directing under German she'll fire
the resistance of his war worn little
army blocking the road to Dunkirk
and Calais, Albert, King of the Bel
gians, today told the Associated Press
of the stand his soldiers are max
ing against the. German invaders.
The Kings headquarters is located
on one of the remaining dry areas
of that small corner of Belgium left
under his rule.
King Albert also requested the
Associated Press to convey his deep
gratitude for their efforts to feed his
subjects now under German military
rule.
The King was alone when the cor
respondent was admitted to the coun-
Gil chamber, not even an aid being
present. His tall, angular, Lincoln
like form was clothed in the simple
undress uniform of a general Of ar
[tillery, which was without insignia,
beyond braided shoulder straps, to
distinguish him from a staff officer.
Physically, King Albert looks
hardened, but lines. of care show in
his otherwise youthful face. In man
ner he is decidedly shy, and he apol-
ogized for his English. which, how
ever, was very fluent. The light
