A
SQUARE DEAL

You have noticed, haven't you,
that the county roads leading from
Gettysburg running north, south
and east, all 90 plump up to the
county line,-we mean, that road
work is carried on up to the coun-
ty line-while the county road
westward has never yet got any
where near the county line, except
under pressure.
Three different petitions for the
Beaver gulch" road we're turned
down before other pressure brot
the county commissioners to a
sense of their duty. And even
then that duty was but one-quarter
performed.
Firstly, it did not go to the
county line.
Secondly, a large part of the
work was done where the road was
naturally already good and didn't
need any "6xin';" while the road
way down the gulch was only made
half us wide as it ought to have
been.
Of course the Old Muddy is an
expensive proposition, and it may
be a debatable question as to what
constitutes a county road in this
direction. But that does not re-
lieve the county board from decid-
ing where the line is, and of not
locating it somewhere.
The Press will admit that the
residents of Forest City ought to
build their own road thru their
town. But what about the road
work that Messrs. Pawelski, Rosa
and others down there have petit
toned for. Is that a county road? or
does Forest City township have to
incorporate asa Civil Township and
build it for Them
1t is not so much that The Press
insists on the Commissioners Civ
ing us a road to our eountyline, as
it is that they survey out a route,
thus giving a chance for those who
would be willing to donate some
work to put it where it Would be
come a permanent highway.

A missionary in the "Sand
Hills" region of Nebraska had a
quaint experience lately. He had
great difficulty in reaching the
place where he was to hold an
evening service but finally arrived
at $3.50 and found some of the'con-
gregation still waiting, tho there
were. no lights. "But," he. says.
1--WE had a service in the moonlight
out on the prairie. We sang the
parts OF many hymns we could re-
member, then, after prayers and a
sermon, we went home, all feeling
that God had indeed blessed us in
our little outdoor moonlight SER

To The people of the State of South
Dakota;
Our Country again contacts a
great National Crisis. Stern duty
and heavy responsibility confront
us. 1t is a time Of peril, an OPP
%portunity for patriotism, a chance
for service. Once more our men
and women are awakened to the
call to sacrifice that the nation
may continue on her way, true to
the ideals of Seventy-six. Sixty
one and Ninety-eight, a champion
of liberty, an active aid to human
lty.
New policies have been outlined
and by proclamation of the Pres
ident, Tuesday, June Fifth. 1917,
has been designated as the day
when all male persons between the
ages of twenty-one and thirty,
both inclusive, must present them
selves for registration, under the
provisions of the recent Act of
Congress.
1t is in accordance with the pro.
clamation of the President that /,
Peter Norbeck, Governor of South
Dakota. under authority vested in
me by Chapter 181 of the Session
Laws of 1907, in order to facilitate
the work of registration, do here
by appoint and declare the said
Tuesday, June 5, 1917, a legal hol-
iday in and for the State Of South
Dakota, and do hereby summon
all the states people to assist in
every possible way to secure a full
and complete enrolment of all our
eligible citizens on that day. The
matter is obligatory upon us-it is
not of preference-the registration
must lie made or penalty result;
let US do our part.

1t is impossible to predict what

kaiser's eccentricities and o OF

In this sense, there is no doubt but
