From the KadOka Press

Mrs. 5. p. Brooks was over
from Philip Monday visiting at
the home of her daughter, Mrs.
H. F. Brunner, and greeting her
numerous other friends.
Lieutenant Jas. A. May arriv-
ed in Kadoka Tuesday and has
been kept busy shaking hands
with his hosts of friends who are
more than pleased to have the
opportunity of welcoming him
home again. Lieutenant May
was one of the first Kadoka
boys to enlist, joining Company
A of Pierre and was sent to the
front with his regiment in the
early stages of the participation
in the war by the United States.
He is one of the last boys from
this county to return from FIR
ance, and we are certainly
pleased to see him amongst us
again.
Contractor Stenger is here
from Pierre and has a crew of
men at work on the preliminary
work Of putting in the big ce-
ment center pier for the White
river bridge. Mr.. Stenger also
has the contract for the build
ing of the cement abutements
for the bridge and he will rush
the work as rapidly as possible
With the starting of this work
the realization of a bridge a.
cross White river south of Ka-
doka draws closer and the hop
es and labor Of several years
past are bearing fruit. The bull
ding of this bridge and the grad
ing of the road south will open
up a large trade territory for
Kadoka, and will materially as
sist in the settlement and de-
velopment of the south country.

A ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE

We are in receipt of some
clippings regarding the death
in Council Bluffs, Iowa. on Sep
tember 17th, of James Wick
ham. One of his daughters, Ell
eanor, homesteaded near Philip
and is we'll known to many of
our readers. Whether the de-
ceased is known here we have
no knowledge. We reprint the
following from the Council
Bluffs Nonpareil regarding him.

genius is 50 per cent work. Ii
this be true then this man was
surely a genius for he worked
up to the very last days of his
life.
Mr.. Wickham was never spe-
ctacular. He wasn't given to the
business of doing brilliant
things. His forte was steadfast-
ness. Think. Of a record Of fifty
years without an omission from
the established service of his
church? That record spells faith
and fidelity worthy of more than
passing note.
A country and a community
and church can rely upon such
steadfastness as that. And such
steady purpose is worth.y of em-
ulation. 1t is only upon such
rocks that an enduring civiliza-
ton can rest secure.
James Wickham has not a.
massed a large fortune. But he
has conserved his resources. He
worked with his head and his
hands. In the sweat Of his face
he wrought out a comfortable
home for himself and his family.
He saved enough for the newt
able rainy day. He was not de-
pendent but independent. And
all the time he was doing this
he was doing his share in the
support of his country and the
institutions which in his iudg-
ment were best carrying on the
work OF charity and education
among people.
The point worthy Of note in
this steady going man is that
there was no alchemy in the sue
cess which he won. 1t was the
result of common sense and
workpersistent industry. The
example set by. this Irish boy
who came to this land of prom
ise with only his head, hands
and a stout heart ought to be q
lesson to all our people. The soap
box orators, the bolsheviks, the
|. w. WIS and other cults preach
the doctrine of division Of
wealth in this country. They
are deceivers. Their doctrine
will wreck any country which
tries it. The life Of James Wick
nam furnishes the guide to an
who would become pillars OF
good citizenship. For sixty years
ne has labored in this city and
been faithful to his trusts as he
was given the light to see. No
man will fail in America if he
will follow the example of indus
try and good sense set by Jam
es Wickham.

In the Span of a Life

When the book of life was
closed for James Wickham of
this city it might well have been
labeled "A Romance in Real
Life" He was born in Ireland
in 1887. That was ten years be-
fore our war with Mexico. He
came to Council Bluffs nineteen
years later. He was here ten
years ahead of the Northwest
ern railway. Throughout this
entire period he has been a
workers. builder. 1t is said that

In spite Of short croDs 1

In spite of short crops the
residents of the Lennon terri
tory are about as prosperous as
ever before. This is due to the
fact that the farmers no longer
place their chief dependence on
rain crops, but have large herds
Of cattle, hogs and other live
stock. The three Lennon banks
have aggregate deposits Of more
than $1,000, 600, which is double
the deposits Of five years ago.

The city of Madison is too
small to furnish a place of abode
for one Igmar Iverson, a consci-
entious objector recently releas-
ed from Fort Leavenworth,
where he had been sent for 20
years for refusing to serve in
the draft. A crowd of Madison
ex-soldiers and other citizens
took Iverson from his family
home and would have given him
a coat of yellow paint if he had
not volunteered to leave the city
in two hours.

He said that he had not seen Peabody BayneS on that road the day the money was lost but had only heard that he was there. He knew now that he couldn't have been there. Gosh t'almighty as your uncle used to say when there was nothing else to be said"
 1t touched me to the soul-this long, delayed vindication of my beloved Uncle Peabody.
 The senator ate supper with us and sent his hired man out for his horse and buggy. When he had put on his overcoat and was about to go he turned to my uncle and said:
 Peabody Baynes, if I have had any success in the world it is because I have had the exalted honor and con- sciousness that I represented men like you"
 He left us and we sat down by the glowing candles. Soon I told them what Ramsey had done There was a mo- ment of silence. Uncle Peabody rose and went to the water pail for a drink.
 eBart, I believe I'll plant corn on that ten-arce lot next spring-darned if l don't" he said as he returned to his chair.
 None of us ever spoke of the matter again, to my knowledge.

Dancer in Abbreviatior,.

Even the school nurse has her fun. In talk before the central philan- thropic council the other day, Miss Helen R. Stewart of the board of health told of one little boy who, after he had been examined by the nurse, went to the teacher in tears, complaining that the nurse called him names.
 When the teacher expressed her surprise, the boy sought to prove his case by handing her the card the nurse had given to him as her record of the examination.
 Look at thatw he cried.
 Poor nut" read the card.
 "Poor nutrition," explained the teacher, finally sending the child away with better opinion of the nurse.- Dallas News.

Lawrence Kellie tells of an amusing experience he had over the song, Douglas Gordon. He was intro- duced one evening to a gentleman whose name he did not catch. q have no desire to meet you, MT. Kellie," said the stranger. Nellie naturally looked little astonished, but said nothing. 'In fact" the other went on, 'I hate the very sound of your name. For months past my mother has been worried by the receipt of telegrams and letters of condolence on my behalf, and the thing is beginning to get mo- I'm sorry," said Kellie, but what's that got to do with mel" Well, I'll tell you" said the other. My names Douglas Gordon, and everybody imagines that your confounded song refers to me-" And with that he turned on his heel and went.

Don't buy Aspirin tablets in a pill box. Insist on getting the Bayer pack age with the safety "Bayer Cross" on both package and on tablets. No other way!
 You must say "Bayer." Never ask for merely Aspirin tablets. The name 'Bayer" means you are getting the genuine "Bayer Tablets of Aspirin" ;" proven safe by millions of people.

The Tribune de Geneve Is informed that Grand Admiral von Tirpitz is staying at Wildegg. Switzerland, as the guest of Lieut. Colonel Willie, son of the former commander-in-chie of the Swiss army.
 Tirpitz has lost all his fortune. His son is a clerk in a bank at Zurich, and his daughter is a governess in a Zurich family.
 To avoid paying the German war tax of 1913 Tirpitz invested his money in Italian securities, with the result that he is now penniless. What a patrioti
