Friday. April 2Srd has been set
for the general observance of tree
planting throughout South Dakota
Arbor Day got its start in the
state of Nebraska, in the spring Of
1872 and the movement has spread
throughout the entire country.
Some states have even made it q
legal school holiday. In South
Dakota it is quite customary for
schools to lay aside their regular
work on the afternoon Of that day
and spend the time in recitiDg
song and stoEy intended to inspire
people to make the country a more
beautiful place to live.
One of the the first acts. we are
told in. Sacred History, was the
planting of the garden of trees,
Later in the story, we read that
man was told to take care of these
trees. Here is a good point to
bring before the children on April
23rd.

aged because they do not see the
announcement of their names in
the school notes promptly. The
fact is that there are SO many win
ners that we do not feel like bur-
deniDg the publishers of the pa
pers with all the names at once.
It.takes the printer . long time to
set up proper names and he can
not afford to spend too much time
in this sort of work. However,
do not be discouraged, read the
notes every week. If you won .
merit, your name will surely be
given to the paper before very
long.
We hope every boy and girl in
Bon Homme County has read the
article that was printed in the Tyn
dali Tribune last week ON the sub.
ject of birds. 1t contains a world
of information about our feather
ed friends.
We hope every teacher and
school in Bon Homme County
will follow the instructions of the
governor in his Arbor Day Proc
lamation. Plant a.few trees and
shrubs on the school. grounds this
spring. Last years pamphlet
from the State Department of Ed
ucation has some interesting sug-
gestions for programs of this sort.
There should be a copy of this
pamphlet in every school house in
this county. -.s"
The Tabor Institute was well at
tended last Saturday and a profita-
BILE meeting was the result. 81
The last meeting for the Tyn-
dali District occurs April 17th.
Al good program is under way and
an exaellent meeting is looked for.
Visitors are always welcome.
Now is the best time of the year
for school boards to prepare for
next years school. If you feel
your teacher has been a success,
you can pay her no higher honor
than to offer her the position for
next year. She is human and will
appreciate the complement, be-
sides that eyeryoue will know who
is to be the teacher next year.
That is good business all around.

there are many men sleeping in 1t, and
1t Is possible to sleep ten or dozen
men or more in bell tent, with feet
to the pole, Of course. and heads to the
canvas. Another surprise Is that there
is nowhere to hang anything up. 1t Is
contrary to regulations to drive nails
into the tent pole. The official way is
a ring with hooks on it to be clamped
around the pole, but old campaigners
say that the supply of these is never
anything like equal to the number Of
tents and that only the lucky ones get
them. With all this a bell tent Is the

ELECTION DATE PUZZLE.
Why the "First Tuesday After the First
Monday" In November?

Why the "Firet Tuesday After the First
Monday" In November2
Nearly all the American world knows
that the national election and nearly
all Of the state elections occur on the
first Tuesday after the first Monday in
November, but probably not one in all
the millions Of voters and nonvoters
can tell 'why'' that date was selected
for the choice of electors. The when"
Is easy Of discovery, but that is anoth-
er story. It is always the first Tues
day after the first Monday, but any
body who looks at the calendars of
several years in November win see
that the. date varies almost every year.
Years ago the writer inquired Of
many Of the most learned congressman
In Washington as to the "why" of the
mystery. Not one could answer ex-
cept to say, ''Bless me, don't know"
Harry Smith, who for long years was
7 journal clerk Of the house of repre-
gentatives, was almost a magician in
dragging to light those little mysteries
associated with the history of the coun-
try. He sought high and low as to the
why" actually for months and then
gave It up.
It is really one Of the curiosities Of
our national legislation. 81. q. B.
Meyer, chief photographer Of the Con-
gressional library, says:
"As to why the first Tuesday after
, the first Monday In November instead
of the first Tuesday in November was
fxed for the date Of presidential cleo
tons, we have to report that no satis-
factory answer can be given."-E. W.
Lghtner in Pittsburgh Dispatch.

LIVE LIFE PRESERVERS.
Canaries In Coal Mines and White
Mice In Submarines.

Canaries In Coal Mines and White
Mice In Submarines.
In coal mining the great danger to
rescue parties, after disaster from
firedamp within the mine, has been
that there has been no known way of
detecting when the rescuers are within
the danger zone Of the deadly gases
until it was too late-until the rescuers
suddenly tumbled over, unconscious
anc dying from the deadly fumes. For
the gas is odorless and tasteless, and
there is no known chemical method Of
detection.
But some one discovered that the
canary-the ordinary little yellow sing
ing bird-was peculiarly susceptible to
the effects Of this gas. For four or
i've minutes before the gas reached a
strength sufficient to overcome human
beings the little canary birds toppled
of their perches, insensible. Accord
ingly, all rescue parties that now enter
the coal mines carry with them several
Of these little life preservers in wire
cages These they closely watch as
they make their way into the danger
GUS sections Of the mine, and as soon
as one of the little feathered singers
becomes insensible they seek safety at
once. Not, however, before they have
transferred the little fellow into a
cage charged with life giving oxygen,
which Immediately restores him to his
former well being, for they are CRATE
fully mindful Of their debt to him.
In the submarines of our navy a
deadly gas is formed that affects the
occupants much as the gas in coal
mines affects the miners and rescuers
-and is equally difficult of detection.
In this case some one discovered that
the white mice, especially the breed
called dancing mice" that may be
seen in any animal Dealers shop, were
as susceptible to this deadly gas as the
little canaries were to the coal mine
gas. Accordingly, every submarine
now carries as an essential part of its
equipment cage Of these little dane
ers. When the boat is running be-
meath the surface-which is the time
and condition when the deadly gas is
formed, due to the action Of the chemi-
Gals used in operating the boat t-these
little mice are carefully watched. When
one Of them is overcome the boat Ell
ther rises to the surface and pumps in
a supply of fresh air or, If that is inn
possible, oxygen is liberated from the
liberal supply of tanks carried on
board until the mouse revives. The
oxygen is then cut of, for an oversup-
ply Of it Is likely to work harm among
the human beings compelled to breathe
It too freely.-New York Post.
