Limitations.
Fair Mary had a great big hat
She'd bought some time ago,
The brim was very broad and flat,
The crown was far to low.
Right cleverly she fell to work
To cut the big brim down,
And set a piece beneath the band
To elevate the crown.
And next she took the long blac
coat
She'd used last year to drape
Her figure with, and really made
A very stylish cape.
Then Mary met her WATERLOO
Although she tried and tried
She couldn't find a single way
To cut her tight skirt wide.

Blondes do not drown so easily

Rivers are the most provident

Persons affected by astigmatism

BETTER TRADE METHODS

The Wilson administration has sue
ceeded in winning the confidence of
business men to such an extent that
the chamber of commerce of the
United States has appointed com
mittee to hold intimate conference
with the new trade board and help to
put the new business laws into effect
with as little friction as possible.
The old idea of big business was to
sit back and lambaste "the govern
ment" and everything it did, whether
good or bad. Captain of industry
opposed all laws and all regulation
until driven to the last ditch and
then accepted, in reluctant, antag
onistic mood. these new laws. There
was no attempt to give government
assistance in framing constructive
laws. though they gave plenty of help
in the way of laws that put money
into their pockets, tariff laws, for
instance. How much better the new
policy is to haye government agencies
solving questions of legality and
morality of trade methods in ad-
vance.

INCREASE is LARGE

Sioux Falls Argus Leader: A round
billion bushels of wheat Is the indi-
Gated yield of the farms of the United
States for the year 1915, if the gov
ernment prediction of the first Of
May is made good. This would mean
the largest wheat crop in our history,
and the largest crop at time when
all Europe is at war, and the prices
are at the top notch. This yield
would permit us to supply our own
needs and export 400, 900, 900 bushels
which would bring a credit of half a
billion dollars to this country on one
item alone.
OF the 1914 crop, we have already
exported 300, 900, 900 bushels and there
are still two months of the fiscal year
to go.
South Dakota this year has 92, 900
acres in winter wheat and on the
first of May, according to the govern
ment crop report, the condition was
perfect 100 per cent-this being the
only state in the union with a perfect
winter score. 1t is pity that our
winter wheat acreage is SO small.

memorized by every American. It

has a right to ask for humanity itself.
We want no nations property; Wo

we cannot get by our own legitimate

ALL OTHER NEUTRALS
HURRAHING ROR WILSON

Washington, May Is. Pressure from
other neutral nations is the trump card
which the United States has played in
an attempt to force Germany to accept
her position in regard to submarine
warfare.
1t was learned today that copies Of
the protest to Germany were placed at
the disposal Of all neutral countries
whose citizens were lost on the Lusi-
tana, and they have endorsed the view
taken
The United States refuses to believe
that the German empire wants to break
with all the remaining neutral nations.
yet if she declines to accept the view
she defies all neutral nations which be-
lieve as the United States does.
Secretary Bryan said today that he
has received number of message
from Ambassador Gerard since the note
was served, but he refused to make
public what they contained.
The significant callers at the state de-
partment today were the Dutch minis
ter and the Italian ambassador. Meth
er would discuss the nature of his visit.

MANY BEING NATURALIZED

Huron Huronite: 1t is said by the
naturalization commissioners of New
York that the number of Germans
applying for citizenship in the United
States has recently increased 500 per
cent. Which is a comforting record
to the citizens of the United States
at a time when strained relations
exist between Germany and the Unit
ed States.
Most Of the Germans who come to
this country intend to remain here.
1t requires considerable fortltude
for people to put behind them the
traditions of the motherland and as
sumo the position of defenders of the
new land they inhabit and to those
who are swearing fealty to the stars
and stripes all credit is due.

Senator Borah, who Is mentioned

in times as great stress as to COM

allow partisan considerations and
