A PROCLAMATION

Pierre, S. D.-Character is not
wholly inherited, neither does it re-
suit from brief experience, but on the
contrary is is the product of imper-
ceptible accretion throughout the
years of life.
"Precept upon precept, line upon
line, here a little and there a little
is the formula for character building
prescribed by a wise ancient, and in
deed all of the philosophers of modern
learning have not improved upon it.
Profoundly impressed as l am with
the belief that a regular attendance at
the Sunday School is one of the most
potent influences in forming good
character in u people,, and desiring
to advance the institution and give
encouragement to the devoted men
and women who freely and patiently
give their time, talent and strenpth
to this important work, /, Peter Nor
beck, Governor of the State of South
Dakota, do hereby enjoin all our citi-
zens to observe as Go-to-Sunday-
School-Day, Sunday, November A, 1917
and do recommend that on that day
each and every one repair 10 his re-
spective church Sunday School, to
attend it's sessions, take part in its
exercises, and by example and word
indicate to the officers and teachers
the high public appreciation of their
labors and to impress upon the chill
dren the serious import of the Sunday
School and its work.

service in the National Army, infor-
nation will be sought first as to the
liability of each man for service, and
the physical examination will follow

some cause under the law. This is so
obviously the correct order of the

method was not adopted in the calling

Health Endangered

formity Of the feet. X-ray pictures in
dicating the. relation of the toes to the
ground when they are encased in these
'h%igh-heeled shoes, show that women
are walking on the ends Of their five
toes. There Is food for thought. In the
fact that the horse nowadays walks
on a foot consisting Of one toe, while

The shape of the natural foot of man

Duty Of the Individual
By DEAN DAVID KlNEY
By DEAN DAVID KlNlEY
Vice Pteaden, Of the University d nlise;;s

The war calls for sacrifice. From some it has taken life From others
it has taken things dearer than life. From others still it has taken the
small thing we call property. What it may take from you and me is yet
to be seen. How great is our spirit of sacrifice? Shall we be ready, when
our country and humanity and God call us, to say that all that we have
we sacrifice and dedicate to our ideals Of duty and loyalty? In this hour
OF our country's need, in this day Of world suffering, l would impress
upon university men and women particularly the thought that their high
est duty is the sacrifice of what they have to their countrys call. The
spirit OF sacrifice is enrolling. Out of it great good comes, great deeds
arise and leadership is established.
The duty OF sacrifice and service rests upon us all. In the prcvi-
dence of God to whom much is given from them much shall be required
in this day of world trial. If not given willingly it will be taken. If it
must be taken the individual who loses it loses also the spiritual nobility
that marks the individual who is ready to sacrifice for and serve his
fellow men. If the leaders in thought, those who have gone farthest in
education, fail, how shall we expect those whose privileges have been
fewer o less to rise to the height of the idealism that is the need Of
the hour? Duty is not general; it is specific It rests on the individual
and not on some fictitious group called society. ii an individual matter
and each one must search his own heart to find whether he is living up
to the ideals and spirit of the God Of his father and mother. Service,
sacrifice, is the prerogative and the duty of the soldier, the citizen and
the Christian.

Let the butterfly girls and the other
high-heeled old and young women stop
and realize the value Of the normal
foot Of man. Let them cut off the high
heel and substitute the natural level.
This might also work out to the in
terest OF direct economy by using the
surplus heel to make thicker soles on
the shoes.
Let US recognize the models Of ma
ture which have led us to success. If
mans foot had been abused for an
Indefinite time In a way to have re-
duced 1t to q one-toed foot, resembling
the horses, he would have a hard time
trying to fulfill his present duties in
life.
The high heel represents the fashion
for the ONE of today and means
a great discounting Of the value Of
mankind, particularly If it is continued
a long time. The present high heel is
not only torturous but of great injury
to n health. The mother must re-
member that she Is partly responsible

If she wants them to have normal,
