at Rock Island Club to Help
Coming Campaign.

Forces are fast being marshaled
iato shape for the Victory Liberty
loan drive by J. L. Vernon, lower
Rock Island county chairman, and
his aides, M. H. Sexton and T. A.
Murphy.
As each day passes. preparations
for the big peace time offensive are
evolved, so that when the campaign
starts in earnest, everything will be
in readiness. Workers are entering
into the work in a whole-hearted
spirit. AS each one is to be a sales
man or saleswoman, they are pre-
pairing themselves for the work by
going over the fund Of reasons con-
corning the paramount necessity
for success. To further that end
and round out the preliminary
work of the campaign, arrange
ments are being made now for the
meeting to be held at Rock Island
club next Monday evening. There
will be a prominent speaker here
from Chicago to present the reason
Why aspect, and local speakers to
review the situation at home.
Issue Statement
The local Victory loan officials
issued the appended statement to-
day:
During the two years since these
United States of America entered
the world war, the people OF Rock
Island county have done their ga
tr;otic duty to the fullest extent.
Men gave their services to the
army; men helped to manufacture
those things vital to an army in
the field; women contributed their
help through organizations with
ceaseless effort, and the county has
always gone over the top in each
Liberty loan campaign
at is because of this record of
faithfulness that a voluntary pur-
chase of bonds is being arranged
for by the local campaign commit
tee. There are hundreds OF people
who wish to surrender voluntarily
as temporary prisoners every dollar
they have at their disposal. There
fore. on April II, IS and 10, it will
be possible to purchase bonds and
enroll yourself on another honor
roll.
Quota Unknown.
Definite Information has not yet
been received as to the amount to
be called for, the time for redemp-
ton of this bond or the interest
they are to carry. Suffice it to say
that this is still The best invest
ment on earth for the American
people, and the reasons for enter
ing into it to the limit are every bit
as potent today as they were five
months ago.
"As has been the case in every
other war cause, the women OF the
community are preparing to do
their part, and the present outlook
on the organization which they are
perfecting augurs more than well
for greater success on their part
than ever before. Mrs. H. H.
CIeaveIand is in charge of this part
cf the campaign. Precinct captains
and workers will be announced
within a few days"

DON'T THROW AWAY
YOUR OLD SHOES
Make Them Wear Like New
AS Did This Canadian
Officer

A Canadian army officer, William
Pemberton, of the famous Princess Pat
Regiment, told of the extraordinary
wear given him by pair of army boots
twice repaired with Ne6lin Soles.
''Sx months of trench warfare under
destructive conditions put the first
pair of Ne6lin Soles out of business, -
said Lieutenant Pemberton, but ordi-
nary soles would have gone to pieces
in much less time"
Don't throw away shoes that can be
repaired. Have them re-bottomed with
tough, durable Ne0lin Soles. ANY
cobbler or repairTnan will do the work
for you. The price is no more than
for soles that give less wear. Remem-
ber-Ne6lin Soles are created by science
to be what soies should be. They
are flexible and waterproof as well as
durable. They come on new shoes of
all styles. They are made by The
Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company,
Akron, Ohio, who also make Wingfoot
Heels guaranteed to outwear any
other heels.

SALVATION ARMY DRIVE
ON IN HAAKON COUNTY

The Salvation Army is conduc-

funds for it's home service work.
For several weeks organization
work has been under way in all
the counties of South Dakota,
and this week is to be devoted to
the intensive work of raising the
required money.
The allotment of Haakon coun-
ty is only $700, and this has been
distributed by the central COM
mittee in charge to the different
towns and communities of the
county. A number of local COM
mittees have been appointed,
and these are asked to report
their collections to H. G.. Will
liams, of Philip, the treasurer of
the fund as soon as possible. Re-
turned soldiers, who saw some
thing of the splendid work done
by the Salvation Army are in
vited to volunteer in helping

mittees. Let's collect about twice
as much as these people have
asked for just to show our ap-

OBSERVATIONS AND
GLEANINGS


Very recently | have talked
with four sheriffs of the west
river country as regards the
DINNER law and the carrying of
two numbers. At Interior the
jackson county sheriff tells me a
state man was sent out and seve-
raj arrests were made because
numbers were not properly car
ried. Also | see by our local pa
pers that the DINNER law will
be enforced by order of the
state sheriff. 1t is quite possible
that Mr.. Shanks means business
as he has already sent out men
to pick up few fellows out in
the more isolated districts of the
Bad Lands. But if you want i'm
munity from the DINNER law,
also from the law that requires
numbers, ] just l..st move down TO
Pierre. Down there seventyfive
per cent of the cars are without
DINNERS. | have seen car after
car with only one number. Tail
lights are scarcity. And il
dealers license cards are to be a
basis for figures, | believe that
fifty per cent of the cars driven
in Pierre are owned and operat-
ed by dealers only. | am not
writing this article to cause west
river people to disobey the law,
but just to show how much bet
ter the state laws are enforced
west of the river by deputy state
men than they are in Pierre by
the state sheriff himself.

STATE AUDITORS DE-
PARTMENT BUSY

The state auditors depart
ment has written greater
number of individual warrants
for the month of August than
for any other one month since
statehood, with 5,070. The total
expenditures covered in these
warrants reached S66,088. The
large number of warrants is
caused by the issuance of wolf
bounties for the year, along
with the new system of payment
of claims against various state
institutions under the requisi-
ton system instead of in one
general warrant covering all
claims against each institution.

SOUTH DAKOTA'S POPULA.
TION

Estimates of population of
South Dakota, based on the
school census as compared with
the census returns of 1916,
place the present population of
the state at 621,548. In prior
years the school census basis
has fallen short of actual count
figures, and if the situation is
the same, the population of the
state at this time is about $780,
900. The gain as shown is A.
80. Counties which show a
loss of population are in the
eastern part of the state, gen.
orally, with the exception of
Lawrence, which shows de-
crease of about 8 per cent, this
ON account of the depression in
the gold mining industry un-
der present economic condi-
tions. Dewey county shows an
increase of 1,459, which is
more than double the popula-
tion for the 1915 census. Ben
nett, Corson, Ziebach, and Mel.
lette also show a doubling Of
population, and the central
counties of the state all show
substantial gains. Stanley with
800 per cent of the river coun-
ties, Sully and Hyde show the
greatest increase in population,
Codington, Beadle, Charles Mix,
Potter, Marshall and Hand each
show an increase of more than
ten per cent. With few excep-
tions there has been popula-
tion gain in the northern and
western section, and a loss in the
southeastern part of the state.

The railroads of the country.
which have withstood tremen-

returning troops, has complet-
ed that task and the admins
tration is now promising better

the return of the railroads to
private ownership, a survey of
the valuations of the properties.

COUNTY GETS AWARDS
AT STATE FAIR

H. M. Sanderson, county a.
gent, and Mrs. Freda M. Cole
county home demonstration a.
gent returned Sunday morning
from Huron, where they had
charge of the county's activi-
ties at the state fair. That the
county succeeded in pulling down
several awards is to quite an
extent the result of their efforts.
! The work of obtaining ex-
hibits for the agricultural dis
play was hampered during the
week of the county fair by the
rains, which resulted in a very
small amount coming in. These
were shipped to Huron and a
very tasty display arranged,
but without any thought of re-
celving an award. Just the same,
in spite of the meagerness of
the display, the county was Civ
en- sixth place among the couns
ties of the state. Considerable
knowledge which will be of val
ue another year was also OBJ
tained, and we want to say right
now, Look out for Haakon
county in 1920"
The girls canning team did
not reach Huron until Thursday
and an hour after reaching the
grounds put on their demonstra-
tion. They did not receive any
award but scored, which is con-
sidered good under the handicap
under which they worked.
The boys stock judging team
won third place in the contest in
which they took part, and Jas
per Fairchild, a member of the
team, was one of the boys put
on the alternate list of those to
go to the Sioux City fair, where
they will compete with similarI
teams from nine other states.
On Friday the boys and girls
clubs staged a pageant, a good
half mile in length. Clubs from
all parts of the state were re-
presented and the Huronite
says "This was one of the larg-
est events of this kind ever
staged at the South Dakota
state fair, and ranks with the
leaders in it's line throughout
the nation" The Haakon county
boys and girls brought back the
championship banner for the
best showing in the pageant. |
The banner is now on display in
the window at the farm bureau
