few SHOOT DUCKS
UNCLE SANS SLY BOYS WILL
GET HUNTERS III THEY DON'T
WATCH OUT.

The sportsman who unlimbers his
'trusty musket," %ostensibly to engage
in a little target practice, is warned
to take reasonable precautions
against permitting wild geese or
ducks to loiter in the path of any
parcels of shot he may discharge.
For even the placid countenanced,
pseudo seed corn salesman may in
reality be a federal officer, whose
mission it is TO obtain evidence
against hunters of migratory water
fowl.
l.. c. Hawley, deputy state game
warden, who is here today from
Sioux Falls to prosecute a cas- in the
court of Justice of the Peace F. l..
Soper, said that while there are fed
eral game wardens in this part of the
state, even he did not know who they
are or the particular districts In
which they are at present operating.
Mr.. Hawley pointed out that as Uncle
Sans officers are not now institut-
ing any suits against violators of the
new federal law which prohibits
hunting of ducks and geese in the
spring, 1T is comparatively easy for
them to conceal their identity. The
deputy game warden explained thai

WORK FOR AUDITOR
County Auditor Must Supply Two
Registration Lists.

Pierre, March 18.-The attorney
general has ruled that county audit
ors, under section 25, of chapter 285
of 1915, which is the present primary
law, shall make out two certified and
sealed registration lists of each party
for each precinct and send it out with
the election supplies. They must sup
ply all information which the regis
tration book gives in compiling these
lists including party utilization, resi-
dence, voting ward, occupation. etc.
The attorney generals ruling is that
each party list shall be made sepa-
rately so that when a voter comes to
the polls and tells the officials that
he registered as a republican they
"a at once look at that list, and If
he is shown registered there, the re
publican ballot viii be given him
without further delay. The section
in question is so worded that there
was some uncertainty as to how much
information the county auditor Was
required to put into these lists, which
are 10 be sent out after May IL.

PANEL DECORATIONS INCREAS.
ING IN POPULARITY.

Textile effects in burlap, cham
bray, crash. tapestry, grass cloth, tif-
fanny. duplex holzmehI, oatmeaIs and
cloister cloth continue in the highest
vogue. This probably explains the
greatly increased demand for panel
decorations, which tend to relieve the
monotony OF the plain textile effects.
Every room i'm the home, except
the kitchen and bathroom, offers D
portunities for this style of decora-
ton. All sorts Of schemes are being
introduced. By running a panel
binder over the Dashboard and around
the window and door trims, and in
the ceiling angle, the whole room is
paneled or set in a frame. Where
there is much wall space, narrow
panels from Is to as inches wide are
in excellent taste. Upper and lower
third treatments are paneled with or
without a dividing wood trim. Da-
dos are paneled off at narrow in
t~ervals. Ceilings are being paneled,
which is a return to the styles of
fifty years ago.
And the panel binders, themselves,
are of every known width and variety
of design, from a half inch beading
to a four or five inch cut-out floral.
Let US assist you in your decora-
tions.

To the Editor: In last nights
Sentinel there was an article that
conveyed the idea that there was
perfect harmony in regard to the
paving question. | think the writer
must be m~isinformed for there is less
harmony at the present time than
there has been at any time since the
question came up.
When the matter of paving first
came up and Mr.. Smith and Mr.. John
son circulated the petition there were
some who signed petition No. /,
thinking that the city would pave
the intersections, and there were
many who would not sign unless the
paving was completed to Eleventh
street, and in view of that, petition
No. 2 was circulated and it was stat
ed that there was unanimity in favor
of paving, but after the commission
ers took the matter up it was soon
discovered that at least 10 per cent
of the property owner north of
Seventh street were not in favor of
paving north of Seventh street, and
that part was declared by the com
missioners mot ready for the paw
ing" When those who signed think
ing that the city would pave the in
~tersections Of streets and alleys and
many having signed because north of
Seventh street was going TO pave
they protested to the commissioners
and asked that the paving be put off

would be likely to be asked again to
rebuild the old schoolhouse and the
extra expense that the taxpayers had
and would be to in repairing and get
ting new machinery for the power
house.
Some of the property owners asked
the commissioners to submit the
question of the city paving the inter
sections, but for some cause they re-
fuse to do so and in view of hat fact
there is a petition out, signed already
by about 40 per cent of the property
owners south of Seventh street, and
the number will be increased TO the
necessary number to prevent the com
missioners from going ahead with the
paving, and If that fails there Will be
a petition out to obtain 5 per cent OF
the legal voters and put the question
to a vote; that is, on the intersec-
tons, and if there be any other hon
orable and legal mean to prevent
paving until the entire street as far
as the Normal can be paved, as was
the original agreement, such steps
will be taken.

Salt has been described as natural
element OF the blood In about the same
proportion as In the water OF the ocean.
Under general conditions we do not
feel the existence Of salt In our bodies
because its effect is counteracted by a
due proportion OF water.
When we eat an excessive amount
OF salt thirst is created by the demand
OF nature that we also take a proper
tionate amount OF water and dilute the
salt 10 its proper relative amount Amy
food that tends to absorb the moisture
OF the body will cause thirst for the
same reason-that our physical welfare
requires balanced quantity OF water.
