|SCHO0L DEDICATION !.
FOR BOSTON MEANS
END OF LONG FIGHT
Charles Greath0use on Pro-
gram for Principal Address
When Town Observes Gala
Day Soon.

Boston will make a gala day of the
dedication of the first high school
building the township has ever had.
Citizens are planning a rally which
will bring out most of the residents
of the southern part of the county.
Charles A. Greathouse, superintend-
ent of instruction of the state, will
be the speaker. There will be several
other impartant speakers.
The school building is the most mod
ern in the county, although it will ac-
commodate only seventy-five pupils. It
was designed from outlines given by
Superintendent Williams and Health
Officer Kruger.
From the front elevation it resem-
bles the Joseph Moore school of this
city. The interior is different from
any other school, however. The big
assembly room and two smaller reci-
tation rooms can be thrown open
in an auditorium seating $50 persons,
with a stage eighteen inches high.
1t has teachers rest room, physics
laboratory, office for the principal, do
mestic science room and the best san
itary fixtures of any school in the
county. Every new feature to add to
the hygienic superiority of the build
ing is provided. The heat is self-regu-
lating and the water is distributed
through hte building by a pressure sys-
tenn. Even chalk dust will be sucked
away from the rooms.
1t is said that the Boston township
fight for high school began twenty
years ago and has just ended. The
township has been split, those in the
town of Boston asking for the building
and those outside fighting against it,
because of the expense.

REV. JAMES PRAISES
OPPOSITION
TO EUROPEAN FIGHT

III all the protestant churches had
been as unrelenting In their opposition
to war. and the war spirit, as the
Friends denomination, it is my belief
that war would be an impossibility
with any Christian nation at this
time," said H. s. James before the
ministerial association today.
THAT the churches have been rent
asunder over difference that are non
essential" was the cause given by
ianity t. prevent the breaking out of
the present war. He said, 1T seems
little short of mockery for a Christian
or a nation to pray for peace while at
a big fight"
In the business session of the meet
ing the following appointments were
made for the infirmary and jail meet
ings. The first winter meeting at the
county infirmary will be conducted by
Rev. Murray Kenworthy, Oct. rs. DR..
Conrad Huber will have charge of the
first jail meeting next Sunday. Rev.
H. S. James was appointed chairman

Last Forts Yield and TeutOns
Urge Citizens to Return

Captured City.
TBY LEASED wtRE.1

ROZENDAAL. Holland, Oct. 12-
The last forts at Antwerp have yielded
to the Germans. The fires have been
extinguished by German troops and
normal conditions are being rapidly
restored according to information re.
ceived here today. Latest reports in.
dicate that the city did not suffer
terrific damage from the lombard
ment.
The flames and resultant loss were
largely confined to the suburb of
Berchem and the southeastern part of
the city.
General Won Bezeler, the German
commander, is cooperating with Bur.
gomaster Devos in restoring a con.
dition of tranquility in the captured
city. Couriers have been dispatched
along the roads on which the citys
residents fled and they are being
urged to return and take up their
usual occupations.
Take No Chances.
Long after the forts had been
| evacuated by the Belgians, the Ger
| mans continued to rain shells upon
the ruins in order to destroy any un-
exploded mines in the neighborhood.
Near the southern suburbs, the Bel
gians had planted an elaborate net
work of mines, but the Germans, hav-
ing been warned by residents of the
city, took good care to avoid the
! danger zones.
The British had sent large number
of marines to Ostend, when notice was
| received that the Belgian army had
begun to retreat to Ostend, to meet
the retreating army and pick up the
stragglers.
The retreating Belgians carried with
them considerable amount of artillery
and numerous machine guns drawn
by dogs.

has grown to be the fashion in South
Dakota for the state legislature to do
things to the newspapers and printers
of the state. There hasn't been a leg,
islative session in ten years that
hasn't taken a fall out of the news
papers and printers in one way or an
other, until today there is not a state
in the union where newspapers are so
lily paid for legal publications, and get
so little of hat sort of work to do as
do the publishers of South Dakota.
And the News doubts if there is a state
in the union where the printers have
to compete for state printing contracts
by bids with the cheap shops in the
big cities of other states, as do the
printers Of South Dakota.
But when there is a public service
to be wrought, the newspaper pub
fishers are expected to come across"

hundreds of hours of work-for the
good of the Standardization News.
