Commercial Club Smoker A
Great Success

The smoker given on Tuesday
evening at the Masonic temple
TO the court visitors was a most
successful one in every way. The
smoker was given under the aus
pies of the Kadoka Commercial
Club and one hundred and TWEEN
ty-tive visitors and live wires of
the town and community were
present, by actual count of the
writer, and each and every one
of those present thoroughly en-
Joyed the evening. After getting
acquainted with each other and
having a general good visit the
meeting was called to order by
President Frybereer of the Com
merCial Club and a baritone solo
and also a piano solo was render
ed by Prof. Cook, and both these
numbers brought hearty encores.
Following this President Fryberg-
er called &. n. Leedom to the
chair to preside at the meeting
and Mr.. Leedom filled the place
in a most capable manner and
with his happy faculty of good
humor was in a great way re-
SponSible for the continual good
nature that prevaded the meet
ing. With well chosen and hum
OrouS intrOduCtionS he called up

speakers made most excellent
talks and each left with his listen

tive to think about, and each OF
the out of town speakers made
reference TO the smoker given in
their hOnorS and also compliment
ed kadoka upon the progressive
Commercial Club which We have
and each gave assurance that
with the enterprise and energy
that had been shown by the club
in securing the best things for
kadoka, that this town could not
help but grow and prosper.
During the entire evening and
between the talks made the COW
boy quartette rendered a number
of songs and were each time
compelled to respond to an en-
core. Following the program a
lunch was served and the remain
der OF the evening was spent in
having a dandy good time Smok-

ter acquainted with each other,
and at midnight when a start
was made to go to our various
stopping places there was not
one but who was sorry that the

these towns have the sense to
realize that prosperity tor the
town means prosperity for ALL
IN the town.
Let Us take an example:
"A proposition is up to secure
some industry for your town. 1t
IS something that may possibly
not DIRECTLY affect but small
proportion OF the population.
Possibly that small element NAV
all belong to one of the warning
factions. Is that any reason why
the others should oppose it? De
Cidedly NOT Every citizen who
has the real prosperity of his
town at heart will at once realize
that direct benefit to the town
is an indirect benefit to himself;
and, while doing all he can for
the success OF his own crowd,
will nOt carry his efforts to the
extent of depriving the town of a
tangiable asset.
And within lies the keynote
to the success of many towns, re-
9ardleSs of the fact that they are
as badly divided into factions as
others. They have the sense. to
see that when their town is de
prived OF a profitable industry
which il might have secured, NO
ONE has an opportunity to bene-
fit from it. Had all agreed to
pull together and secure it. then
each could have had a fighting
chance for the benefits.
Briefly, the LIVE town does
its scrapplnQ AFTER they have
secured what they go after, in
stead OF before. The LIVE town
realizes that ALL must work to-
gether to SECURE, but the scrap
ping must be limited to the con
troll
mo doubt many of our readers
are acquainted with just such
towns. While they are no stran-
ger to factions, yet when any
thing is proposed that is plainly
to the advantage of the commu-
nifty, the cohesion and co-opera-
ton Is instantaneous. They have
the good sense to know that they
can't divide their loaf before they
secure it, and that this first con-
sideratlon OF securing it demands
undivided effort.

South Dakota Fair Draws Big
Crowds Each Day

The junior Press editor accom-
panied by Mrs. Nellor and our
youngest daughter, Beth, spent
last week in Huron where we had
charge of the Jackson County eX-
hlblt at the South Dakota State
Fair. Jackson county was the
only county from the west of the
river country that was represent
ed in the Agricultural hall and
much Creditable advertising was
received tor our county by the
tact that we had an exhibit there.
We had the pleasure of talking
with many thousands different
people of the advantages and the
conditions in this county, and the
attitude of the people of the east
ern part of this state and from
various parts of Iowa was very
gratifying to us. But a few wears
back II was felt by these people
that anyone from Western South
Dakota was more to be pKied
than censured, and should be
left alone in his ignorance of the
wish to stress, and one upon
which too much emphasis can
not possibly be placed. DON'T
CARRY YOUR FACTIONAL
SCRAPS TO THE EXTENT OF
DOING YOUR TOWN AN m
JURY OR DEPRIVING IT OF A
BENEFIT.
You would bitterly resent the
charge of disloyalty toyour town. !
Yet every time you knock it. ev-
cry time your act deprives it of a !
benefit, Just so often YOU ARE
disloyal.
This principal will hold good
IN all things relating to the pros
perlty of the community.
Get this kind of spirit in
your heart: I'VE will stand to-
2ether tor every possible benefit |
to our town. If there MUST be |
a scrap, let it be over loaves and
fishes ALREADY SECURED"

COMMUNITY BUILDING

Editors Note The following
article from last weeks Cotton
wood Republican is filled with
good thoughts for all real com
munity builders:
We read and hear a great deal
these days as to the influence OF
1actionallsm in retardinG the
growth OF a town. And while it
Is true that many towns are held
from a pronounced and gratifying
growth by the factional fights
within their confines, it is not al
ways the case, nor is it newt
able.
You have doubtless heard citi-
zenS of more than one town re-
mark: mo use to start anything
tor this town; it divides on all
questions and the factions start
h9htlne each other, and as a con
sequence nothing is done"
This state of affairs is common
to many towns. Factions do eX-
lst, and do fight each other. But
still there IS way around this if
the citizens of town can be
brought to see things in their
true light, and will all agree to
use a little of the common sense
with which Providence has en-
doWed them.
We recognize the fact that
there are factions in ALL towns.
Nevertheless, not all towns per
NIT these factional fights to re-
tard their prosperity. The reason
Tor this is that the citizens of
