FOURTH OF JULY WARNING

The state fire marshal has issued
the following warning regarding the
Fourth of July. which is we'll worth
our attention:
There seems to be no question but
what the Fourth of July will be cele-
iasm than ever, this being the result
of the ending of the war and doing
honor to the returning soldiers, most
of whom will be home by that time.
Realizing the tremendous popular
enthusiasm which will give vent to
itself on this day, and with no idea
of discouraging proper expression Of
the great patriotic impulse underlying
it, State Fire Marshal W. N. Van
Camp earnestly appeals to the people
of the state to keep this enthusiasm
within safe and sane channels.
During the past few years, great
strides have been made in South Da.
kota looking towards a safe and sane
celebration of our Independence Day,
with the result that the toll of death
and MANNED and the number of fires
have been speedily decreased
AS result of the glorious victory
achieved by our boys, the temptation
to go to the extremes will undoubt-
edly be great this year as the slim
ulus to celebrate was never greater.
Therefore, the need of restraint is
correspondence gerat and as the les
son Of restraint was well learned dur
ing the war, let everyone continue 10
apply it in times Of peace.
Reports coming into the office of
the State Fire Marshal would indicate
a score of localities throughout the
state are already planning for great
community observance of the day
with rousing homecoming celebra-
tiOns for the homecoming fighting
men as big feature These events
will be marked by parade, band con-
certs, addresses by prominent speak
ers and programs of great variety and
community display of fire works
Fire Marshal Van Camp strongly
indorses such observances, and he
urges city officials, commercial clubs
and such organizations as are accus-
toned to take the initiative in these
matters in their respective cOmmuni-
ties, to make the day one long 10 be
remembered Certainly no time is
more opportune for a community
Fourth of July celebration than this,
when every city, village and town de-
sires to honor all of its fighting heroes,
but great care should be exercised in
the handling Of fire works, fire crack
ers, torpedOes, roman candles ky
rockets and other kindred displays,
and the utmost caution should b. OBJ
served by those having the handling
Of fire works in charge.
1t is the hope and desire of the Fire
Marshal that when these great cele-
Nbrations are over, that we can look
back and point with pride TO the fact
that not one single life has been sac
rifced or one building destroyed by
fire
Let us keep the Fourth Of July
"carelessness" under the ban Let us
not revive the casualty lists and need
less fires. This can be done by safe
and sane Fourth of July celebration.

Thin PEOPLE
SHOULD TAKE
PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bitro-Phosphate TO Put on
Firm, Healthy Flesh and to Increase
Strength, yigor and Nerve
Force.

Judging from the countless preparations and
treatments which are continually being adver-
tised for the purpose OF making thin people
heshy, developing arms neck and bust and
replacing ugly hollows and angles by the soft,
curved lines of health and beauty, there are
evidently thousands Of men and women who
keeny feel their excessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are often due to
starved nerves. Our bodies need NOR phos-
phate than is contained in modern foods;
Physicians claim there is nothing that viii
supply this deficiency so well the organic
phosphate known among druggists as bitro-
phosphate, which is inexpensive and is sold by
r. A. Drown Co. Barre and most all
druggists under a guarantee of satisfaction
or money back. By feeding the nerves di-
recty and by supplying the body cells with
the necessary phosphoric food elements. bitro-
phosphate should produce welcome trans
formation in the appearance; the increase in
weight frequently being astonishing.
Increase in weight also carries with 1t
general improvement in the health. Nervous
ness. sleepiessness and lack of energy, which
nearly always accompany excessive thinness,
should soon disappear dull eyes ought to
brighten and pale cheeks glow with the bloom
Of perfect health
CAUTION: - Although bitro-phosphate is
unsurpassed for relieving nervousness, sleep
nessness and general weakness, It should not,
owing TO its tendency to increase weight. be
used by anyone who does not desire to put on

for the construction Of Tiny town and
is providing prizes in money that will
aggregate at least 5000"
The scale of Tiny town is half an
inch to the foot. Each boy will receive
an assignment of a tract Of ground to
suit the Improvements that he agrees
to undertake and building permits will
specify the materials to be used, Some
of the pupils will erect churches and
schools. A power plant, street car
system, and other public utilities will
be installed. But interest focuses in the
homes. Sixth and seventh grade pupils
are vying with high school students in
the planning and building Of bungalows
and garages.
One of the contests arranged for the
art classes interested In building Tiny
town will center in the working out of
floor plans, interior decorations, color
schemes, floor coverings, and furnishings.
Each room will be illustrated by showing
four walls in chart form drawn to a
scale. Wall paper, window draperies,
and tapestries will be suggested in col
ors. A chart of the floors will show fur
niture arrangement with samples Of up
holstering in fabrics that carry out the
ideas expressed in the color scheme and
treatment of the room. This interior
decoration branch of the project will be
intrusted to the girls, who viii make
estimates of the costs involved in fur
nishing each room.
Landscape gardening viii occupy much
attention, the idea being to illustrate
the possibilities of unified treatment. Tie
expense involved in building each home
will be worked out on the normal cost
basis, so that by reference to block and
lot numbers marked on each improve
ment the exact outlay necessary may be
ascertained, Prospective builders who de-
sire to copy any house in Tiny town
may thus learn the probable cost of a
full-sized structure.
