country as well as California.
Two farmer boys, brothers OF the
same farm near Wentworth, went to
different towns last week and each
purchased an automobile. Neither
knew that the other intended to ~
and of curse was surprised when
they both came home with cars. The
Wentworth Enterprise says that two
automobiles on one farm prove the
prosperity the farmers are enjoying.
When the frost is on the punkin'
and the war tax comes to bat, you'd
better mind your p's and as and find
where you are at. And If you have
a tax, you'd better get in line and do
within a week or two the things to
dodge a fine, for though you love your
neighbors and your country fond and
dear, it doesn't do a bit of good to try
to dodge this here, for the government

f. H. Klock of Hot Springs, sent IN
a rad'sh to the State College, which he
pulled on Thanksgiving day. He states
that it was grown from seed raised
this year from a first crop of radishes.
He says further: THE fact is, we
have the most delightful climate in
South Dakota right here in this Sec
ton of the Black Hills in the world.
We can raise most anything in the
garden line if we have a fair amount
of moisture"

Day before yesterday a perfectly
nice lady called us up and with tears
in her voice reproved us for not men
tioning the fact that she hdG had a
friend visiting her last week. We told
her that she had not let us know Abodt
it and that therefore, we did not know
that she had a visitor. Then she said
We'll you should have known. I
thought you were running a news
! paper" Wouldn't that rattle your
Stats? Some people think that an
editor ought to be a cross between
Argus and Anna Eva Fay. They seem
to think that our five senses are aug
mented by a sixth that lets us know
everything that happens, even if we
see, hear, feel, taste or smell it not.
Dear lady, editors are only human or
at least, almost human. If you have a
friend visiting you, if you are going
away, or have returned from a visit
out of town, If Johnnie falls and

his toe instead of a stick of wood, if
anything happens that makes you glad
or sad, happy, or mad, call us up. Tell
us about it. That's the way to get it
in the paper.-Wink.

the fumes of gasoline while working
in his closed garage %overhauling the
lighting apparatus on his auto, again
reminds auto owners of the dangers
which they are always up against. One
may suggest that when he found he
was being overcome he ought to have
gone into the open air, and the dis
covery of his body indicated that he
