with telephone and typewriter. as well
as writing equipment for the boys.
1t is here that Secretary Phillips
may be found for a considerable part
of the day. He has charge of finding
board and room for students. He re-
ports that at present all have been
provided for, although the demand. due
to Increased attendance, has been
larger than ever before. AS many as
one hundred telephone calls have been
received in a day asking for informa-
ton. The secretary also finds work
as far as possible, for deserving stu
dents and already over 1000 has been
earned by the students through the Y.
NJ. c. A. employment service. Farm
ers have driven in as far as nine miles
for students to assist them over Satur-
day. 1t is doubtful If any college Y.

more for the general betterment of its
members and the student body than Is
being done by the organization at the

PIONEER EDITORS ASSOCIATION

At the recent meeting In Aberdeen
the members Of the Press Association
who were in the newspaper business
in the Dakota territorial days COM
pleted the organization of the Pioneer
Editors association, an auxiliary of
the press organization.
The membership is limited to those
who were engaged in the newspaper
business in territorial days and who
are members of the Press Association
now, and the object is to have a So
cial time and for historical and remin-
iscent purposes.
The members will meet annually and
will have a banquet at which each
member will recount some of his ex-
p%eriences of the early days of Dakota.

MORE INDEPENDENT VOTERS

A trueism uttered by Charles M. Day
in his address before the South Da-
kota editors at their Aberdeen meet
ing, we can hardly let escape. Mr..
Days subject was on "The Editors
Duty to His Party" and he said in
part:
1t is no doubt true that devotion to
party, as such, is at the lowest ebb
that it has been at any time in this
generation. There are reasons for be-
lieving that it will go lower yet. The
absence of any clear dominating moral
issue must be set down as the main
reason. The disappearance of the
state convention, where men met on a
common ground, fought out their diff
ferences, and then united in a common
fight for the party, must be charged
up also for it's share of fading party
loyalty. fractional fighting in the ma
ton, factional fighting in the state,
and factional fighting in the comnun,
ity, leave in their trail an ever in
creasing number of voters who count
themselves as independent in politics,
and to whom the party label means
less and less. To the politicians this
is a serious change, to the county it is
not alarming, but to the editor who
still recognizes a party obligation, it
presents a series of problems which
are likely to break his rest at night.
The editor will not 20 far wrong, in
my judgment, who will take the pains
to post himself on the men and issues
before the people, and then, eliminat.
ing personal choice and petty reasons,
will follow unswervingly his own con
victions. Such a man will often find
himself out of touch with his party
on many questions-even on import
ant ones. He will find himself now
and then opposed to some nominee of
his party, and rejecting certain fea.
lures of it's platform. But if he can
convince his readers that he is honest
and earnest, and can give to all corners
the reasons which prompt ais action,
he will suffer neither in business nor
loss of friends, for the whole world
likes a man who is mis- own man, and
who can fight-single handed If need
be-for the men and the principles in
which he believes.

GETTING PARTICULAR

Over a reference to the question of
whether or not the supreme court
shall order the secretary of state to
place the name of Judge Frank Nc
Nulty on the primary ballot, the
Brookings Register places this very
n and misleading headline:
"McNulty Wins Test Case" Inas-
much as the supreme court has not
yet handed down it's finding on the
issues as presented, there has been
no victory for McNulty. The Register
is usually fair in it's conclusions, and
Public Opinion believes that this head
line was the result of a careless con-
ception of the facts, rather than of de-
liberation.-Public Opinion.
The headline at which the watchful
Public Opinion takes offense was over
an article giving Attorney General
Johnson's ruling in the case, in which
he ordered the secretary of state to
place McNulty's name on the ballot,
but that worthy saw fit to carry the
case into court.

ton Press and Dakotan. Both, how,
ever, are for Burke. Judge Rice, the
Third district congressional candidate
who has the backing of the stalwarts
of Lawrence county, aspires to be
known as a progressive republican.
Judge Frank McNulty, the minority
candidate for congress in the Second
district, was for years one of the most
vigorous of the progressive republi-
can leaders of the state. In the first
contests between Crawford and Kilt,
redge he was the recognized leader of
the progressive campaign in Roberts
county and under his leadership it
made the banner record in the first
victory. These are but straws show
ing that, in all probability, the fac,
tional contest will largely d~istinegrate
after this years primary.-Mitchell
Daily Republican.

Y. M. c. A.

With more than two hundred in the
Young Mems Christian Association at
the State College this year and 100
men in the bible study classes, the
association is steadily growing under
the direction of Secretary Phillips. The
quarters now occupy one-half of the
floor in the central building, which
gives four large recreation rooms. 1t
is the plan of the association to make
these rooms the headquarters Of the
boys in college, and they will be open
afternoon and evening as well as Sun
day. The association is planning to
give a circus in the gymnasium in the
near future, the proceeds from which
will be used in buying a Victrola,
library books and furniture. Through
the kindness of n of the local bust
ness men a large handsome rug has
been donated to the boys, and various
articles of furniture have been OBJ
tanned in this way.
The Y. M. G. A. Office IL one Of the
cosiest places on the campus and its
present appearance is largely due to
the work of the members. A wains.
cotting four feet in height uns around
the room and a CHEEKY fireplace is
used in very cold weather. The walls
are decorated with athletic pictures

was no evidence to show how long 1t
had been there. There have been
rumors and the facts may come out in
time, but at present We have no evil

liver Dybdahi-The automobile show
at Minneapolis was certainly a most
splendid one and entertaining and edu-
c~ational in no small measure. Prac-
tically every car made was on display
and the person who could not find
what he wanted in the shape of an
automobile is hard to please. l saw
some of those cycle cars that are be-
ing placed on the market and although
light they look pretty good and | would
not be surprised if they were all right.
$4,000 cars of all makes were sold dur
ing the week of the show, agents of
course being the largest purchasers,
and that looks as though the North
west was prosperous.
Prof. SoIbere-I am a believer in
good sidewalks as well as good roads
and l cleaned the snow off my walks
after this last storm. However, the
principal reason why l cleaned my
walks this week was because l do not
believe we are going to have much
more snow this season. You know
that in continued snowy and blowy
weather it is better o to clean the
walks. That may sound foolish, but it
is a fact. If you clean off a walk you
pile the snow on either side, making
a ''cut" that fills up with the first snow
and wind making it almost impossible,
while if you allow the snow to pile up
you have a high, hard walk. You
know on a railroad it Is the cuts or de-
pressions that fill up, while the high
track is swept clean by the wind.

What They Say

John Dokken-Some time ago the
Register had a good booster article on
the amount of improvements made in
Brookings last year, but there was
one item you left out and that was the
cement work done by the local com
panies. l did about $14 900 and the
other company had a good season, so
that this amounts to quite a little.
Some of this is included in the cost OF
houses that you mentioned, but the
greater part of it was for sidewalks,
cisterns and other permanent improve
ments of that nature.
States Attorney Matson-Some time
ago the Register made the statement
that if the authorities were alive they
could apprehend and punish the per-
son or persons who placed the body
of the infant at the dump grounds. l
am satisfied the Register made that
statement in good faith and the best
interests of the community demand
that such crimes be punished II posi-
BILE, but in order to do so you have got
to discover the guilty party or parties
and that is more of a problem than the
ordinary observer would think. AS a
matter of fact this is n of the hard
est crimes in the calendar to convict
upon and statistics show that in o
than ninety per cent of the cases the
guilty persons are discovered.
AS far as the local case is concerned
there were no clues to work on, the
body being naked and the doctors
were not able tt tell how long a period
it had lived after birth. We do not
know whether the body was taken to
| the dump ground from this city. the

Gowns and Their Wearers.

Mrs. Vincent Kerens, whose father
in-law was the former ambassador to
Austria, and who has spent many years
abroad, has the individuality of taste
that one would expect to find in a
woman who has had the fashion CEN
ters of the world to choose from in the
selection of her wardrobe.
Mrs. Kerens has the good. sense to
choose simple lines to best set of her
petite figure, and artistic colors that
enhance the coppery tints of her hair,
which reminds one of the lights and
shadows in old mahogany as much as
anything.
An evening gown in the light shade
of green called chartreuse suits her
admirably. 1t is of panne velvet and
is made with tight underskirt and a
full overskirt. with a draped bodice,
resembling a wide girdle, extending
from the arms to below the waist line
Tho decolletage Is edged about with
fiesh-colored tulle. and there are also
short sleeves of tulle, but so cleverly
does the tulle tone in with the color
of the arms that the decree Of fash
ion, that there must be no sleeves, is
cleverly gotten round.
A handsome Jet ornament in the CEN
ter of the corsage has festoons OF
beads, which are draped across or
either side and end just at the shoul7
ders. With this gown. Mrs. Kerens

Another gown. which is very strik-

dress Of white chiffon striped with
broad bands of black satin falls over
an under petticoat Of white lace. The
draped bodice, similar to that OF the
green gown, is Of black velvet. About
the decolletage 1t is edged with white
of bands of fox fur. Fox also edges
the black and white striped tunic skirt.
The sleeves are long and gathered in
at the hand with a tiny rufde, which is
held in place by a quaint little black
velvet wrist band. They are OF tulle.
Nesting in the folds of tulle on the
right side of the bodice is q large white
moon flower with black center.
