compensations for municipal employees, but why, We
ask is it that this Ieveling always a down

The case is very different when

Trajectory result follows that an up
right image on the retina produces
the impression of a reversed object.
while a reversed image on the retina
produces the impression Of an up

But this is easily understood if
you reflect that the image on the
retins is not seen by the brain as an
image, but is simply perceived as
an impression made by the rays of
light from the object.

Why Infants Put

BY Garrett p. serviss.

By Garrcu II. SerV1SS.
A correspondent asks: IF the eve
is lens why is it that we cont see
things upside DOWN."
Because the upside-down image of
an object produced by the lens Of
the eye is not formed until the cross
ed rays reach the retina, which is
the seat of the sensation of sight or
vision. From the retina, on which
the lens focuses the image, the i'm
preston is conveyed into the brain
by the optic nerve. The brain traces
this impression back to the object
by following. backward. the direc-
ton of the rays of light that form
the image. IL sees not the image
but the object from which the rays
forming the image come, and this
appears upright because. in tracing
back to the object the crossed rays,
along the paths by which they have
traversed the eye, the effect of the
reversal by the lens is neutralized
the ray which is at the bottom in
the image being followed back to
its origin at the top Of the object
and the ray which is at the top Of
the image being, likewise. followed
back 20 its origin at the bottom Of
the object.

/. COUNTY SCHOOL LETTER

The spring examination for second
grade certificates occurs on Thursday
and Friday of this week
Friday, April, ,14th, is Arbor and Bird
Day. We hope every teacher will IN
telest her pupils in the Importance Of
this day. A Friday afternoon program
would be appropriate for this occasion.
There were thirty four applicants
present at the eighth grade examina.
ton last week. These were all rural
pupils. A later examination will be
held for the pupils Of schools having
nine month"; terms.
Exceptionally interesting" is the
characteriZing term to- use in reporting
the Avon division of our Boa Homme
County District Institute. All papers
read before the meeting were prepared:
with great care, and were full Of sound
doctrine. The musical selections provid
ed under the guidance of Misses Kol-
berg, Lay and Dykstra were much ap
preciated by all members and visitors
present.
Miss Conn, the Red Cross visiting
Nurse, will arrive in the county this
week, and stay with us one month.
She desires to visit rs many of rural
schools as possible during her stay in
the county. Since the funds of the
Red Cross Commission are somewhat
limited, it will he well if teachers and.
patrons would cooperate in providi ng
transportation from school to school.
Already provisions have been made for
Miss Conn to reach the schools at Plea
SAINT Ridge and Perkins We will be
glad to hear of other districts who will
volunteer transportation facilities for
the nurse.
DR.. William Jayne, the first territor-
al governor of South Dakota, died last
week at his home in Springfield, ILL.,,
on April 5, 1911. He addressed Il letter
to the children of South Dakota though
Professor Willis E. Johnson from which
we quote the following extract: "'To

gratulations upon their having home !

they be inspired by the sacrifices which
Others have made for their welfare;
may they be grateful to Almighty God
for their abundant blessings and may
they grow up to be citizens who are
worthy of such country and such a

We can see no reason why any

lieves in fair and open political
methods should object to the meet
ing called by Chas. Fl. Burke at

probably over dozen names men

didate to support, there ia certainly
no better way of getting at pubic
sentiment than through mass
meeting to which every republican
is invited. To send out ballot to
the voters at the primary contain
ing only one list of delegates and
these instructed for one candidate
is unjust to the voters, as it robs
them of the privilege of expressing
a preference. To file a dozen lists
instructed Tor as many different
candidates is folly, as it would d.
vide the vote so that no candidate
would get a representative follow
Ing. The mass meeting under the
circumstances seems to be the only
way left for getting an open and
concerted action in the primary.

EDITORIAL COMMENT


Joe Kerby. a prominent Sioux
Falls lawyer, has asked the attor
ney general to commence disbar.
ment proceedings against Judge s.
G. Policy, member of the supreme
court. The charge is that Mr..
Policy, while acting as secretary OF
state, appointed q party as supply
clerk in the legislature and receiv-
ed for such appointment a financial
consideration. The fact that Mr..
Kirby wac recently fined $500 for
contemps by the supreme court
may have some connection with
The making 0f this charge.

Realizing that the farmers
wives and other women are often
neglected in such campaigns and
believing that they would appreci-
ate the privilege of helping make
South Dakota dry, the state prohi.
bition committee decided to ask
every woman in the state raising
chickens to give all the eggs her
hens lay during the week of May
25 to 81, inclusive for this cause.
This week a dozen women and
a half a dozen men start out to or
ganize the state for the big egg
drive. Local "Egg Week" orga-
nizations will be affected in all the
of the state and an effort made to
see all the women of the state dur
ing the next thirty days. Those
who are not seen by an "Egg
Week" organizer will be requested
to write the Anti.Saloon League at
Mitchell, stating that will save
their eggs during the week named
aud givs them to the dry cause.

From the Tyndall Tribune.
Mrs. Ray Noack was taken before
the board of insanity last Monday
evening and found to be mentally un-
balanced. The unfortunate woman
was taken to the hospital in Yankon
this morning.
Hon. Siegle Green, OF Avon, was in
town last Monday. Mr.. Green will be
one of the republican candidates for
the legislature this year, the indication
being that he will have no oppositions
in the primary.
The indications are that third bank
will be started in Tyndall in the near
future. The name of the institution,
we understand. is to be the Farmers
and Merchants Bank with captaiza-
ton of $4,000 90, and to be incorporat-
ed under the banking laws of the state
Articles Of incorporation have been filed
this week. The indications are that it
will probahfy he June list before the
bank will be open to business

In the Minnesota primaries this
month Cummins won out by eight
to one over Astabrook, the voters
having no chance to express their
wishes as regards Roosevelt, Hughes
and others. LII this poll Cummins
holds third place Sioux Falls Press
In this statement tue Press very
forcibly sets forth the great defect
in our primary law. in which the
preferential clause was copied from
the Minnesota law. The voters
had no chance to express their
wishes as regards any candidates
except Cummins and Easta crook.
A preferential primary that gives
the voters no chance TO express
their wishes is very poor primary
In this connection it is interesting
to note that the Minneapolis Jour.

Tyndall as soon as the prelimin-

probably take about two months.

and the stock will all be subscribed

are business men OF Tyndall, and
each one is rated at $50, 1000 or bet
