Aberdeen.-Nearly 100 editors and
their wives attended the midwinter
meeting OF the South Dakota Press as
ISOLATION here. The first days ses-
sion was characterized by a typical
Dakota blizzard, but the meetings were
largely attended and proved very in
teresting. In the evening the editors
were guests of the Commercial club at
a theater party and informal dancing
party.
was taken up with business sessions,
at which proposed changes in the con-
stitution were acted on. These
changes provide for the organization
of districts into subdistricts, which
shall hold annual meetings for the
purpose of bringing the editors into
closer contact with one another.
Following an address of welcome by
Mayor Ed NJ. Hall, with a response by
President Hans Demuth of Sioux Falls,
twelve new members were added to
the association. Several excellent ad-
dresses were delivered. II. b. Tysell,
editor of the Britton Journal, talking
on the topic, Small Country Newspa.
pers Accept Ads in Competition with
Local Merchants" Mr.. Tysell argued
that merchants of small towns expect
unlimited home loyalty from country
newspapers, but in return get the. bulk
OF their printing done by their whole
sale houses at cost and refuse TO adj
vertise themselves unless prodded to
do so by outside competition. Mr.. Ty-
sell held that revenue from outside
advertisers was necessary and perfect.
ly legitimate.
c. Z. B~essancon, editor Of the Blunt
Advocate, discussed the Passing of
the Weekly Newspaper as a Political
Organ" stating that this degeneration
was due principally, If not solely, to
ne fact that the policy of such papers
..as dictated by one a the paper
thus losing it's individuality.
Mrs. l.. r. Eastwood, editor of the
WATERFOWL Herald. discussed Libel
Suits and Libel Laws advocating
some legislative reform whereby at
torneys acting as plaintiffs in cases
against newspapers in libel actions
should be made to stand some liability
instead of being permitted to start
such actions without any cost to them
selves. She advocated reform where
by the newspaper fraternity should get
more justice from courts, and she de-
nounced the courts soundly for actions
in certain cases recently brought In
this state. She also denounced the
fact that actions could be brought
against newspapers by simply printing
court records in cases on file. She
quoted a recent Montana case to bring
out her point in the last contention.

VARIOUS EMOTIONS OF LOVE
Always at First General and Vague L.
Sometimes Remains ImpersonaI
Through Life.

Swedenborg says hat in its early
and elemental forms our love is at
tached by sex, not yet by one of the
SEX. Even in babyhood girls may show
a decided preference for men. Love
of a whole sex is already awake in
them, but they are rarely devoted to
man to the exclusion of all others,
writes Richard c. Cabot in the Allan
tic. A newcomer is especially well
coined. This means that their love is
at first general and vague, though later
it may attach itself to one individual
and cleave to him, forsaking all others.
This lesson we sometimes fail to learn.
We then remain impersonal and desire
the emotions of love, as many people
desire the emotions OF music, without
any awareness of an individual or of
the meaning of the piece. To yield to
such a desire is villainy in case we
really know better (as we usually do)
but not otherwise. When we listen to
good music we are actually listening
to the ~outpourings of the composers
heart. He is speaking to us earnestly
and intensely, and we are listening to
him, not to it. And yet it is often no
crime to drink in music merely as
pleasure; indeed, for most people it
cannot be a crime because they know
no better. But it is always a CHASTITY
mistake, for it is treating music,
which is a bit of a persons life, as a
mean of sensual qualification.

SCHOOL

Editorial stan-Chief. Dorriee Rich
ardsy associates, Harold Waite.
Elizabeth Macdonald. Lewis Maxon.
Under the direction of Mr. Leonard,
our history teacher. the study OF his
tory is made doubly enjoyable by
many new and ingenious methods.
Just now all but the freshmen history
students are working with a great
deal OF interest on the writing OF a
sort OF term theme on a subject rela-
tive to the particular history which
each one is studying. After Mr.. Leon
ard has looked over the themes, they
are turned over 10 the English de-
partment and the pupil receives credit
on his English composition mark IN
proportion to the worth OF his theme
from the standpoint or complete
English essay. Thus, while learning
about an historical subject and writ
ing about IL, he receives credit for his
work In two subjects. Another way
In which the study OF history is made
attractive is by "the movies" as they
are called, but which means stereopti-
con views of the country which the
class Is studying. During the past
two weeks, all the classes have had
these screen pictures of actual pres
ent-day scenes, rural views, city
scenes and battle grounds. Then, too,
something original has been done by
the pupils In the way OF map drawing.
The pupil takes piece of glass. cut
TO At the stereopticon lantern. On
this he draws, with India ink, map
of the country which he Is studying.
He then colors IL with water colors
to show boundaries, routes OF inva-
sion or migration, possessions OF dif-
ferent houses or countries, seats OF
war, etc. This map, when thrown on
the screen, gives very graphic pic
ture of the subject. This work Is easy
and fascinating as well as instructive.
Two OF our grade rooms have cell
endars OF December on the black
board. The artists are William Klett
and Marion Burton The dates OF
great events. like the advent OF our
school magazine, Pep" Christmas
and Sundays, are marked In red. The
really artistic designs are a real dec
grafton to the rooms, and the pupils
find the calendars OF real use.
Since Oct. 26, night school has been
held In the Highland Park High school
building. The Board OF Education has
been very generous in providing a
heated lighted, well-equipped school
building and teachers free OF charge
for those citizens OF Highland Park
who wish to better themselves and
are interested enough in their work
TO attend regularly. The courses and
classes offered are limited only by
the demand. Any subject Is taught II
there is class OF at least IL. II Is
the aim OF the night school 70 provide
instruction In those subjects which
will be of practical value TO the stu
dent IN his daily work. Students
may enroll az any time they wish.
There are al present five teachers
and total enrolment OF over 100 stu
dents. The teachers are: n. p. See
lye, drawing; j. Nahabedean, foreign
