Custer Association of Community In
terests held very interesting meeting
at the Gym on Monday evening. The
attendance was not all that it should
have been but nevertheless the meeting
was success. The principal subject
under consideration was that of an inde-
pendent Chautauqua for Custer for 1917.
Mr.. Davis, the president, has been hsv-
ing considerable correspondence with a
Chicago firm which furnishes talent for
the independent Chautauquas. A rep
resentative of the company is in the
state and it was decided to give him a
hearing and learn Just what the PROPOSE
tion is with view to organizing the
Black Hills towns into what might be
called an Independent Chautauqua Cir
cult. II that can be done Custer will
have Chautauqua that will excel any
thing il has ever had before.

The Black Hills has this year had just
slight taste of auto tourist travel.
People are just beginning to hear of the
attractiveness of the Hills for autoists,
and when good roads are the rule rather
than the exception all over the country
there is no place that will attract more
visitors than the Black Hills A few
thousand have come to the Hills this
year and have been greatly pleased.
The number will be more than doubled
another year, and is sure to increase
year after year, just as the Rocky
Mountains of Colorado have drawn
greater numbers each year.-Iead Call.

(his fathers honey was near where
the prison was located and while he
was there his parents and other mem
bers of the family visited him and
used every art of persuasion to get
him to take the oath of allegiance
and go home with them, the command
er of the prison joining with them
telling him that if. he would do so he
would be Immediately released. But
he fatty refused 10 do so, telling them
he would suffer death before he would
Go it, preferring to stand by his con-
victions and intended as he said to
Give and die in Dixie" And so it
was he remained in prison until few
months later when the end came and
in due course he was paroled and dis
charged. He then went to visit his
parents and took with him my broth
er Ben. His parents received them
both cordially and treated them
splendidly, but at the end of a week
they terminated their visit and head
ed for their South Carolina. homes,
which they safely reached in due time.
l wish to say here before | forget
it, that when Shoemaker went into
the army he was thin and dyspepsia,
weighing about 125 or 100 pounds, but
he soon began to gain and before the
war was half over he weighed
$50 pounds and came out "a hale
hearty man full of vitality and vigor.
He lost no time after he got back
but went to work Systematically, en-
ergetically and wisely to build up a
comfortable. competency and it goes
fer him self and family and it goes
without saying that he succeeded. He
prospered at farming (Which was his
chosen business) and came to own a
splendid home and model farm and
won the confidence and esteem of all
who knew him. He was twice chosen
by his fellow citizens to the state leg
islature, where he did faithful, bene-
fetal work. There was no citizen Of
the county that was regarded as more
reliable and trustworthy than he. Both
in church and state he was esteem
ed as a man among men. He went
to his reward few years ago leaving
many to mourn his departure and not
a shadow over the life and splendid
reputation which he had so deserved
ly won.
Ye,. | know you are asking if his
wife's parents and family made
friends with the clippers. Yes, they
did. Did so a while before Shoemak-
er went off to the war, and they got
to be prouder of Shoemaker than OF
any son-in-law they had-and rightly
too, although he had some others that
were real good and thrifty citizens.

Mr.. Percy Perkins, who has just re-
turned from visit to Tampa, tells of
a great stunt that was pulled off in
that city on Christmas day. Police
men were sent out all over the town
to arrest members of the Elks wher-
ever they might be found. On being
taken in custody each Elk was march
ed off to headquarters, not police
headquarters, but Elks' headquarters,
and brought before an official of the
lodge, by whom he was judged for
some offense, found guilty and fined.
The fine was always dollar, and the
money went to one of the Gulf City's
worthy charities. Mr.. Perkins was
tried for being absent from his home
town, and paid his fine without de-
muir. There is reason to believe that
by next Christmas Percy won't have
TO expose himself to such dangers.

IMPORTANT MEETING
BOARD OF TRADE

A very important meeting of the
Board of Trade is to be held Friday
evening. The principal matter under
consideration is the proposition of
the Seaboard Air Line to grant three
day stopover on all their tourist tick
cts during the season, the stop to be
made going or coming. This is some
thing the business men are vitality
interested in, and they should be
present in force. AS there will be a
number of attractions that evening,
the board will be called to order at
6:45, and all who can should be pres
emit.

While we are discussing second
presidential terms and shutting them
off, the Star would like for the T.-U.
to say who, in case the single term
plank had been observed, would have
done to put in Wilson's place as the
1916 democratic candidate. Mr.. Will
son has done some things the Star
doesn't approve of, and hasn't done a
great many things the Star thinks
should have been done. Yet, when we
surveyed the field, we saw no other
man in the democratic party that we
thought stood any show of election,
nor did we see among the statesmen
of the country any man who could
take his place as president. There are
doubtless men in America who could
fill the presidential Office more ably
than Woodrow Wilson, but they have
not yet done anything to bring them
into public notice.

President Wilson's peace note to the
belligerents, Secretary Lansing's COM
ment on the note, and his closely fol-
lowing qualification of his comment,
have held first place in the American
and European papers of the last few
days. The presidents note was all
right and Lansing's comment on it
was all right, but the qualification
greatly detracted from both. When
a man makes strong statement, if
he thinks he is right, he should let it
stand. An attempt to explain it al
ways weakens it.

away with the stream of water that
