barns and sheds to suit it's size. The
teacher will live on it with his fam

engaged during good behavior. 1t
will be a life job for the right per-
son.
In this school house will be a kit

men of the district will hold high

of American rural cookery and

The moving picture shows will be
given for the benefit of the pupils

New York City, will visit these
places in the movies. They will see
how farming is done in China, Japan
and Egypt. They will see bacteria
develope before their eyes, and
wheat plants and roses. 1t will be
lots of fun. and all to be written up

AUTO ACCIDENT
NEAR WESSINGTON
Proves Fatal to Little Girl, and
Injuries Mother

The first really serious auto acct
dent to occur in this locality was
that on Tuesday evening in which
little Marjorie Mcclure lost her life.
Mrs Mcclure and the little girl, &C
companied by the Misses Elizabeth
and Helena Gaudig. drove into town
in their Ford car Tuesday afternoon.
The accident happened on the return
trip at the corner eleven miles north
of town, where they turn east TO go
to the Cavanee farm, where the Nc
CURE family have been residing for
past year. Just how it happened
will never be known for Mrs Nc.
CURE is unable to explain it. She
claims to have been driving at a
reasonable rate Of speed and to
have turned on a wide arc. At this
corner the ground slopes to the
north Possibly the front wheels
caught In a rut throwing them at
too sharp an angle and the momen-
tum of the car forward threw it
over. At any rate it turned COM
pletely over, pinning both Mrs Nc
CURE and the child under it. The
back of the front seat caught the
child's head and killed her instantly.
Mrs McGuire'S wrist was broken
and she was bruised UP quite badly.
Bert Case and one of the Brackvogel
boys were working near and came
to the rescue, lifting the car off the
imprisoned occupants. - Washington

SUFFRAGE COLUMN
BY SUFFRAGE COMMITTEES

Miller people were fortunate last
Sunday afternoon in having the OPP
portunity of hearing Mrs Antoinette
Funk of Chicago speak on Equal
Suffrage. Mrs Funk is a keen and
interesting speaker and what she
had to say about politics was Of in
terest to everyone whether a Suf-
fragist or not.
Mrs Funk told Of the Illinois Suf-
frage campaign which was in truth
a campaign of silence. The women
worked so quietly that the oppon-
ents Of Suffrage did not realize the
strength Of their support until it
was too late to defeat them. Cover
nor Dunno was a loyal friend to the
~Suffragists and stood pat for the
cause. The story of how Governor
Dunno became a %Suffragist is ex-
tremely dramatic. There once came
a time in the city of Chicago when
the treasury was too low to paw its
policemen, firemen and school teach
ers. A little school teacher named
Margaret Haly thought this a rather
peculiar circumstance and investi-
gated the case. She found that
some of the big corporations were
not paying their taxes. She fought
the case through the courts and
these corporations were forced to
pay over a million dollars of back
taxes. Whereupon the treasury
stated that it had received funds
from an unexpected source and i'm
mediately paid the policemen and
fremen. The schoolteachers, how
ever, were not paid and Governor
Dunno being the father of fourteen
children, most Of them daughters,
concluded that the women weren't
paid because they couldn't vote and
he straightwav became a supporter
of Suffrage.
1t has been stated that women
wouldn't vote if they had the chance
but last spring at the Illinois election
seyenty-two percent of the men vot-
ed and seventy-three percent of the
women.
Some Of the papers have lately
been making a point Of the fact that
the Illinois women didn't turn out at
the last primary. There is a reason
for this TACT. however. In Illinois
there is a law providing that if a
voter helps nominate at the primar-
les a candidate of a party, he is
bound to that party at the election.
The women do not wish to form
party affiliations at this time and
they will turn out at the election all
right.
1t was interesting to hear of the
work the women have done in Wash,
ington and how owing to caucus rule
they have been unable to get Their

Appointing Souvenir Day For
Panama Expo. Contributions

Executive Chambers, Pierre, S. d.
There has been a general and in.
sistant demand that the state be
represented at the Panama Pacific
Exposition. This demand has come
from all sections of the state. and
from people of all calIlngs and
classes. Because of this demand j
appointed a commission to consider
the ACCESSIBILITY of providing for
such representation by erecting a
building and conducting an exhibit
of the states resources.
After holding some meetings and
canvassing the situation thoroughly.
the commission has reached the con.
cluslon that such representation is
desirable and feasible, and that with
the cooperation of our citizens,
approximately fifty thousand dollars
can be readily raised to finance such
representation.
AS a means of providing part of
this fund, the commission has pro-
vided certain beautiful and attrac-
tive souvenirs, to be placed on sale
at the different banks and other
places throughout the state. and
sold at one dollar, each, thus giving
every citizen an opportunity to CO.
operate, by a small contribution at
least. in placing on the exposition
grounds a building and exhibit which
will attract the same favorable at
tention that the other states of the
Union are to receive. and bring
pride and qualification to our people.
To further the sale Of these sou,
veDirs and thus and the general
plan. the commission requests me to
designate a Souvenir Day.

pose herein indicated, | hereby des.

bill before Congress. The Senator
from South Carolina in one of his
speeches said that suffrage was un-
necessary. for the men of South
Carolina clothed their women in
lu~stre." However it is true that
there is more child labor in South
Carolina than in any other state in
the Union. 1t is one of the states
which allows a father to deed away
his child, ever an unborn child, with
out the consent Of the mother. It
also has laws giving a husband the
right to his wife's earnings. Yet
the women are clothed in lustre."
Mrs Funk answered several of the
popular arguments againts Suffrage.
We are apt to say that our grand
mothers and mothers worked hard
and were contented and happy with
out the ballot. But it is true that a
few years ago practically all labor
was carried on inside of the home.
Our grandmothers worked hard. but
when they wanted a breath of fresh
air they could step to the door and
get it; they could move their spin
ming wheels into the sun if they so
desired; and most important Of all
the result of their labor went where
they wished it to, to the members of
their own family. Since the intro
ductioh Of machinery, however,
women have been forced into indus
trial life and have nothing to say
about under what conditions or FOR
how much they shall work.
The fear that voting will take
away too much of women's time was
disproved by concrete examples.
Mrs Funk said when she voted she
timed herself and it took exactly
eighteen minutes for her to go from
her home to the polls and back
again. 1t is probable that most
spend twice that time in selecting a
hat.
She told of the work of the Anti
S~uffragists and of how the rich So
ciety women, who have never done a
Jays work in their lives are used by
the anti interests as sources for Sc
curing funds. The liquor interests
especially r fighting Suffrage and
one of their methods of campaign is
buying the press. One bought"
paper publishes an untrue squib
about Suffrage and the other
bought" papers through out the
country quote it.
Mrs Funk said as vet South Dako-
ia didn't have the problems that the
state of Illinois has, but as our coun-
try grows we are going to have
larger cities and greater RESPONSE
bilities and it is our duty now to
prepare for the future generation.
She ended by saying that it was
hard work for the women of this
state to organize and wage a cam
paign and asked the men if they
wouldn't help their women and OBJ
tain for them this right of the ballot.
