THE PUBLIC PLAYGROUND

The children that have ben coming
to the school grounds during the past
two weeks have been having a Won
derful time playing games, swinging,
building in the sand and listening to
stories under the direction Of Miss
Knutson. Every day there have been
from ten to seventy-flve children pres
II varying in age from four years
old upwards. Besides the sand piles
and the swings Miss KnutsOn has a
volley ball court and equipment, an
indoor baseball equipment and the
balls and baskets will be here in a
day or two for basket ball. The hours
are from nine to eleven in the morn
ing, and from two to five in the after
noon.
If enough children come regularly
Miss Knutson is planning TO have a
pageant in August containing the
songs and games that the children are
learning during the summer.
A good many misconceptions have
been found to exist in regard to the
playground. 1t is free. Being under
the direction and control Of the Board
of Education it is public just as the
schools are. 1t is for all children four
years old and older, and it is in ses-
sion every day but Sunday. 1t should
be a boon to any mother who wonders
what her child shall do these summer
days. and to any child who is of the
human type frequently running to its
mother with the question, Mother,
what shall l do"
The more children that are present
the easier and better it is. At least
that is what Miss KnutsOn assures
us, and so you are helping in this
movement by sending your little girl
or boy, as well as helping them. 1t
Is an attempt to meet the problem
which is presented by Il young peo-
pie, a humble attempt as yet. but a
real one, and it needs our support, for
the problem is a serious one.
A word should be said of gratitude
to the Board of Education for taking
this new step which is a progressive
one, and which will surely lead to
great things in the future for the edu-
cational system of Brookings.

approaching such motor vehicle or be
ing approached by it,"
Cars equipped with gas or kerosene
lights are not affected by the law. All
auto drivers know the binding glare
which strikes a driver ~squarely in the
eyes when an approaching car is not
equipped with lenses which dicuse the
light. making it dangerous when two
cars meet. The cautious driver is
compelled to give a reckless driver
the entire road or take a chance OF
being crashed into or crowded into
the ditch, and the new law VIII mean
greater safety for all auto drivers
The dinners provided for electrically
lighted cars are of absolutely no ben
eft. as they do not throw enough
light. and the only way to solve tne
light problem and keep within the
provisions of the law is to equip the
headlights with lenses that diffuse the
rays Of light instead of sending them
forward in a binding glare.
The same law gives the car on ones
right the right Of way at all inter.
sections. That is to say, a man driv-
ing east would have the right of way
at intersections over the car approach
ing from the north. but must give way
to the a approaching from the south.
He would have the right of way, ii
proceeding south. over the car com
ing on a cross street from the east,
but not over the car coming from the
west. The car approaching from ones
right invariably has the right of way,
and it is presumed that in the event
of a collision and resultant damage,
the driver violating the rule laid down
by the state law would have to stand
good for any damage his neglect
might infict.
If you want TO take chances and
believe that the other is fool proof
and will follow the law, it will work
out satisfactorily. But it may be just
as well to use your head a little and
not depend on the other fellow know
ing the law or observing it as well rs
you do.

THE CHAUTAUQUA SEASON

The Chautauqua season is again
with us. Nearly every weekly paper
reaching the News exchange table
carries advertisements and announce
ments concerning an approaching
Chautauqua. Usually the talent de
scribed is of a high order, and un-
doubtedly the Chautauqua, as a gen
eral thing. is beneficial to the com
munity in which it is held. for it
brings TO those who attend a touch
of the outside world, a relaxation
from the humdrum of every day life,
and a general uplifting and awaken
ing of the better impulses of human
effect throughout the year, until the
next Chautauqua arrives.
The average Chautauqua program
is an admirable blend of amusement
and instruction. In the course of the
years, the Chautauqua has become
highly ~systematized, so that a high
grade of entertainment can be given
at moderate cost. A program print
ed by the Big Stone Headlight, for
the ChautauQua at Big Stone lake
(the same program to be at Brookings)
probably averages up fairly well with
the usual Chautauqua program. It
includes Hawaiian singers and play
ers," an operate quintet" a COM
pany of players in comedy and pure
DRAMA" a band of southern Jubilee
singers" a pair of readers, a car
toonist, a humorist, some Welsh male
singers, two physicians who give lee
lures in the guise of health hints"
a former governor of ne of the states
who will lecture on American Leader
ship and the World War" a vocation
al expert" who will tell the Chau-
tauqua attendants how to achieve
Success Where You Are;" and a
former congressman-red headed Vic
Murdoch of Kansas-who will speak
on National Remedies for National
Ills"
All these lectures, musical numbers,
comedies, etc., can be seen at a price
for the whole course which many peo-
pie pay without complaint for one
number during the colder period Of
the year, when the ChautauQua isn't
ripe.
The Chautauaua as at present con-
Quoted seems to have achieved a per-
manent place in American life, and
so long as it is carried on in its pres
emit form. with Is high grade of tai
emit as it generally offers to its pa
irons, 1t is pretty certain to retain
its popularity.-Aberdeen Daily News.

prised, to learn that she had died the
evening before. Suffering for a long
time with an i%ncurable disease, her
passing to the life beyond was a sur.
cease Of pain ana q joyful deliverance.
She had battled sturdily as long as
there WAS any hope for relief from her
ailment, but when she vas advised
that all human agencies could afford
her no cure, she calmly awaited her
translation with fortitude and faith.
Vesta Viola Sanford was born in

Der 21st, 1860. whore she passed her
childhood and maiden days, receiving
her education in the public schools Of
the county and at Winona. In the
latter city, on May oath. 1883, she was
married TO James l.. Jarvis, and in the
fall Of 1886 they moved to Langford,
in Marshall County After being en-
gagged in business there until the

warm and sincere friends that she has
made during a life Of service and de-
yotion, both to her home and in her
church relationship. On the removal

failing health.
Mrs. Jarvis vas a woman who de
sired to be doing for others, and in all
of her life in Bookings she was iden-
tilted in a quiet and dignified way with
the things that were for the upbuild-
ing of her church and for the city's
good. In doing these things she gath
cred around her a circle of warm
friends. who at this time deplore her
death. but feel glad that she is re-
lieved from suffering from which medi-
cal science could afford her no allevia-

CAPITAL ONCE UNDER WATER
Large Part OF Eastern United States
Was Occupied by Arm Of Sea Mil
lions Of Years Ago.

Millions Of years ago, in what
biologists call the Devonian period,
a large part of the eastern United
States was occupied by an arm Of the
sea which extended northeastward
from the Gulf of Mexico region, en-
bracing Maryland, Virginia and
what is now the District of Column
bia, into New York state.
The eastern shore of the sea was
not far east of the present line of the
Blue Ridge and the highlands of
New Jersey and southeastern New
York, and still farther east lay a
great continent which extended an
unknown distance into the area now
occupied by the north Atlantic.
The northern shore Of the sea was
somewhere near a line drawn from
Albany through Syracuse, Rochester
and Buffalo and south to the west Of
Washington. The present site of the
Catskills was thus near the north
east end or head of this sea or gulf,
with land not far away on the east
and north.
As the streams washed in sand and
mud from the neighboring lands the
sea gradually filled up and the shells
of many brachipods and other she'll
bearing animals were thus buried in
the sand, and their forms preserved
till now. By slow, upward move
ment of the earth's crust, the sea was
drained from the region and the
beds of sand and mud that had been
hardened into sandstone and shale
were lifted thousands of feet above
sea level to form a great new land.
The Catskill mountains have since
been carved from this uplifted mass
of rock through the cutting of val
leys by the streams.

MADE FISH DRUNK.

Making fish drunk was the crime
for which young man was arrested
and fined at Springville, Ala. The
fish lake at Springville is a show
place. 1t is about 100 feet square,
two feet deep and has a cement in
closure. 1t contains thousands of
carp varying in weight from half a
pound to five pounds. They are quite
tame and gather in rayenous, squirm-
ing masses whenever anyone feeds
them. The young man who was
partly intoxicated was spending the
day at Springville. Seeing the fish
leaping and squirming to be fed, he
offered the contents of his bottle.
The fish readily accepted and drank
nearly a quart. A resident reported
to the mayor the condition of the
fish, and after an investigation the
visitor was arraigned and fined S..
He declared the sight of the fish
while under the influence of liquor
was worth the cost.
