Thomas Adelbert Glidden was born
in Kenosha county, Wis, April 18th,
1847, and departed this life at his
home in Brookings, S. D., April 9th,
1919, aged ~ years and eleven days.
Mr.. and Mrs. Glidden came to Linds-
burg, S. D., 33 years ago. After max
ing their home there for four years
they moved to Brookings where they
have since lived. Mr.. Giidden was
engaged in the fruit and confection-
airy business for IA years and many
of our people remember him as a
courteous, effective business man.
Since his retirement from business he
has lived a quiet life and until com
p%aratively recent years enjoyed his
usual good health. For more than a
year, however, he has been gradually
failing and entered peacefully into his
rest last Sunday evening.
He leaves to mourn his departure
his widow, one brother, Daniel, Of
Brooklyn, Wis, and one sister, Mr..
J.. B. Divine, of Cresbard, S. d., be
sides a large circle of friends and ar
q~uaintances. Funeral services were

Geneva. They spoke from their own
experience at the Y. w. C. A. confer
ence there. The talks were illustrated
somewhat by screen pictures of the
camp taken last summer. The pur-
pose of the meeting was to o
some enthusiasm in regard to sending

INSTRUMENTATION THROUGH
CHILDREN

There is a growing apprehension Of
the evils that n the future and
an apparent desire to avert trouble
by means of preventive measures. 1t
is coming to be recognized that by
making good Americans of all of the
nations children, the alien problem
of the future will be practically solved.
The easiest way to teach American
ideals and loyalty is to begin with
the little child; therefore the United
States Bureau of Education and the
National kindergarten Association,
working together from 8 West 4Oth
Street, New York, are urging the i'm
mediate introduction Of the kinder
garten into all public schools as a
vital Americanizing agency.
AS a result Of their efforts, Texas
and California are conducting inten-
sive campaigns, and letters from per-
sons in every state show an increas-
ing interest in securing this education
al advantage for the children OF their
communities.
More than 20 per cent of the chill
dren of our own state n deprived OF
kindergarten education. We should

any monotony that might attend a con-
ference made up of discussions only.
Provision is being made to entertain
visiting girls Friday night but to help
the committee it is asked that the
girls notify Miss Keith Of their inten-
ton TO come as soon as possible. Girls
may register at the Public Library
Friday afternoon and at the church
in the evening. A special feature of
the opening meeting will be the dram
atization of Esther by the Bookings

DANGER OF CONFUSING
SEED TO Be LEssENtD

Because of the marked similarity
between White Hybrid wheat, 12S.
suitable for fall sowing. and White
Hybrid 143, for spring sowing, Fred
Bennion, county agent. will make every
effort to see that farmers do not make
a mistake in the two varieties and
sow the 12S in the spring and the 143
in the fall. This mistake was made
in some cases last year and resulted in
almost total crop failure.
White Hybrid 12S is the only
White Hybrid recommended by o. A.
C. and Washington State College for
sowing in this county and 95 per cent
of the White Hybrid in the county is
12S, according to Mr.. Bennion, SO that
the amount of 143 is comparatively
small. He will locate the 143 White
Hybrid in the county.
Mr.. Bennion is sending seed of early
Baart wheat grown in Umatilla coun-
ty to Montana State College, where it
will be used for demonstration pur-
poses. Montana grows no early Baart
and the use of the seed will be as an
experiment.

stated that the walkout of butchers.

The chief had two drunks in police
court yesterday morning and as each
was fined $40. the chief informed the
Judge that they did not have that
much on them. From one he had
taken $40 and from the other about
Sc so he was sure neither could pay
his $40 fine. Back into the cooler
they went.
Yesterday afternoon the chief de-
cided to put them to work where they
might at least earn their keep from
the city. Both were feeling much
more themselves than they had early
in the morning and the thought of
work did not appeal to them. One
of the prisoners thought it well to
ask the chief how much he had re-
moved from his person when arrested
and the chief replied.
The man fumbled through his
clothes and brought forth several dol
lars more in paper. enough TO pay his
tine.
Maybe I've got some. too" said
he other He likewise fumbled
through his clothes and. with the Sc
he chief had found. was able to pay
lis $40 fine. Both walked out of the
,olice station, leaving the chief Won
lering how those dollars escaped his
detection
