Some Joke!

We often wonder what was
the matter with the business
men of Mclaughlin when the
government buildings were
built at Fort Yates. 1t seems
ridiculous that these buildings
should be hauled over to Fort
Yates, an inland town, with
very poor chances Of ever hav~
ing the railroad facilities that
Mclaughlin has now. Nc
Laughlin is about as centrally
located on the reservation as
Fort Yates is and would seem
to anyone the most logical
point for this agency. Nc
Laughlin has q beautiful
country surrounding it, plenty
Of good water and the very
best OF railroad facilities, while
Fort Yates has nothing Of the
kind to offer. We are not at
tempting to stir up fight, but
when you think over the mat
ter, dosen't it seem queer?

North Dakota Sunshine
And Prosperity State
Splendid Opportunities of North Dakota
Will be Advertised During Appre-
ciation Week Jan. 2l-27

North Dakota Appreciation Week,
January 81 to 81, 1917. Put the
date down in your date book, and
| plan now to observe it properly.
That is the week the people of
North Dakota will resolve them
selves into a committee for the ex-
press purpose Of presenting to the
| world facts and figures on why
North Dakota enjoys the remarkable
prosperity that has fallen to- her lot.
Il 1t is to be week Of big things
for the state, according to the plans
OF a general executive committee
consisting Of officers of the North
Dakota Press Association, CONNER
. cial Clubmen and public spirited
men, who are willing to give their
time and money to further the pros
perity Of this great state.
1t is to be a week during which
the people of the state will, if they
accept the spirit Of the movement
as they did last year, devote them
selves to state service. It will be
time for arousing state pride among
the people who already make North
Dakota their home-and it will be
a week devoted to putting other
people in touch with the splendid
opportunities offered by the state.
Last year special attention was
called during Appreciation Week to
the gigantic crops raised that wear,
but this year a new departure will
be taken up, that of livestock, and
natural resources that make this
state one of the greatest in the ga
laxy Of states in the Union. In other
words, the people of other states
will learn at first hand about the
tremendous deposits of coal that
will eventually come into their own,
the great deposits Of clays that will
soon be used in the manufacture of
all kinds of manufactured products
that have clay as one Of their con-
stituent parts. The dairy, the gar
den, the hogs, the beef cattle, the
sheep, even. the humble chicken,
will come into their own this year.
North Dakota has much to be
thankful for. 1t is the Sunshine
state," the Rose State" the state
of long days in summer, with their
beautiful sunsets, unrivalled any
where else on earth, the cold, crisp
days of winter time, when the red
blood courses through the veins Of
the people and sturdy health asserts
itself in winter sports that even
kings do not enjoy.
Conditions are just right for such
an Appreciation Week. The herds
of the state are constantly increas-
ing, and North Dakota is being
reckoned with as one of the few
states that can be depended upon to
furnish the meat of the nation, if
not the world. Beautiful homes are
the rule in North Dakota, and in
an increditably short time the sod
shack has crumbled to decay through
disuse. The farmers have their
automobilcs-over 41,OO0 of them
now being used in the state. Pros
perity is here to stay, and why not
rejoice, and rejoice heartily.
North Dakota, during Apprecia-
ton Week, will try to point out to
the people Of other states the splen-
did advantages open here-and the
praises of North Dakota will be
cried up and down the highways
and by-ways Of the world.

Mclaughlin Mirror

The above from the Mclaughlin
Mirror is some joke. The matter
with the Mclaughlin business men
when the Standing Rock Agency
was established at Fort Yates in
1873, was that very few OF them
were then born. And unfortunately,
the enterprising and progressive
city Of Mclaughlin was not then on
the map.

She was a successful writer, as success
was measured. She earned salary
many men would have envied, and had
absolutely no one to interfere with her

self because she wanted the love and
attention she did not have.
Most of us who knew her laughed at
her foolish talk and actions. But now,

L allow myself, L could weep as hysterl-
cally, act as foolishly.
But neither father nor Bruce would
listen to any complaints of Robert, and
thought me silly when L told them of my
loneliness. Bruce had considered me
unwifely. 1 knew this, although he had
not said il in so many words.
For months Robert had continued &c

COPIED by requestD
THERE Is NO DEATH.
There is no death. The stars go down
To rise upon some fairer shore
And bright in heavens jeweled crown,
They shine forevermore.
There is no death. The dust we tread
Shall change beneath the summer
. shower
To golden grain, or mellowed fruit.
Or rainbow-tinted flayors.
The granite rocks disorganize
And feed the hungry moss they bear
The forest leaves drink daily life
From out the viewless air.
There x no death. The Ieaves may
tail.
And flowers may fade and pass away
They only wait, through wintrv hours.
The coming of the May.
There is no death! An angel form
Walks over the earth vita silent
;read;
He bears our best loved ones away,
And we then call them dead.
He leaves our hearts all desolate:
He plucks our fairest, sweetest flow
ers;
Transplanted into bliss, they now
Adorn immortal bowers.
The birdlike voices, whose joyous
tones
Made glad the scenes of sin and
strife,
Sing now an everlasting song
Around the tree of life.
Wherever he sees a smile too bright
Or heart too pure for faint or vice
He bears 1t to that world of light
To dwell in Paradise.
Born unto that updying life.
They leave us but to come again
With joy we welcome them the same
Except their sin and pain.
And near US, tho unseen,
The dear immortal spirits tread
For all the boundless universe
Is life-there are no dead.

PETERS GOING TO STAY

Harley H. Peter is wearing a smile
all over his face. He has Just re-
turned from his annual pilgrimage to
California and says he will settle down
in the California of the Northwest
another year just for luck. While il
California he tentatively accepted a
position as manager of a large ranch.
The first of the week he received a
wire from the owner telling him to
come. A later wire, however, brought
the information that the owner had an
opportunity to rent the ranch and it
was left to Mr.. Peter to say whether
he should do so or not. 1t was then
that the Kennewick country began to
look awful good to Harley. /. He wired
the Californian that the deal was off
and started out back-tracking himself
to pick up the sale bills he had dis
tributed the day before. Not only is

He was running a small provision
store in a newly developed district and
the big wholesale dealers found him
very backward in payment of his ac-
counts.
They sent him letter after letter,
each more politely threatening than
the last. Finally they sent their rep
resentative down to give him sport
ing chance.

sent us anything? Are things going
