COMMUNITY CAMP PLANNED

Plans are being arranged for a com.
munity camp of all boys and men for
the week Of August 25th. The definite
dates and the final arrangements for
committees will be announced later.
The purpose of this camp is to give
men and boys better acquaintance
with each other and to bring into the
life Of Brookings men and boys the
finer appreciation OF community spirit.
If these people play together and eat
together they are sure to have the
proper spirit for team work. At this
time the high school athletic season
will open. There will be games Of
football, basketball, tennis, swimming,
and fishing. Some of our generous
business men have contributed cot
tages for this purpose. In a later no
tice the final committee and arrange
ments will be announced.

OUlJA LEADS TO DIVORCE

The Watertown Public Opinion pub
lished the following account of a di
vorce case brought before court here
last week: THE ouija board may be
a wonderful success, but it sometimes
leads to family troubles, according to
A. T. Hopkins and Judge Skinner, who
have returned from session Of court
held in Brookings county. A divorce
case appeared in court there, in which
the husband had made a trip into
northern Minnesota, accompanied by
his brother, They made the trip by
auto. One night while they were away,
the wife and the brothers sweetheart
asked the ouija board where the men
were staying that night. Ouija said
that they were staying in little town
near Detroit When the men returned
home they told the ladies that they
had spent the night in Detroit. The
argument became so heated that a di-
vorce case resulted"

mace load of tremendous proportions.
With steady increase in population
and industrial growth, the future field
of the industry seems to be limited
only by the conditions established
governing its ability to attract in
vestors to furnish new capital so as
to make the extensions necessary to
meet the increasing demands for SER
vice.
A rumor in the automobile world
to the effect that prices of cars had
recently been reduced in Omaha has
been found incorrect. Investigation
shows that there have been no actual
reductions in the prices of new cars,
but there is hope in the fact that pro-
posed advances by manufacturers
have been temporarily deferred.

| F'losse Isabella Sloan was born
June %. 1888, in Brookings county
South Dakota, and died July q, 1920
at the home Of her parents in Brook

was lived in Brookings county. She
was united in marriage with Earl Ril-
ling on June 80. 1908. In the spring
OF 1917 they moved TO jamestown n.
d.. where they made their home until
her death
She united with the First Presby-
terian church in childhood and was
member OF that church until going
to jamestown. Since then she has
been faithful member of the First
Presbyterian church of that city.
Mrs. Killing was of very sociable
disposition, making friends wherever
she went and winning the love of all
those with whom she came in contact
Four weeks before her death she
was taken to Rochester, MINI, by her
parents, where they learned she was
q victim of quick consumption From
that time she was at their home in,
Brookings where everything possible
was done for her comfort
Her husband and children were with
her to the last. She was very patient
and cheerful during her illness and
when the end came she was ready
and willing to go.
Three children were born to Mr..
md Mrs. Killing, one dying in infancy.
Besides her sorrowing husband and
,wo children, Ralph and Glenn, she !

= A current report of the government
forest service says that the larger
newspaper publishers of the country
have been able to keep down the ad
vance in cost Of their newsprint tc
about 200 per cent because of their
ability to contract in large volume
But the market price, according to the
| bulletin, has advanced 500 per cent
sinse 1915. 1t is at this price that
the small publishers is compelled 10
buy his paper stock.
Primarily the reason for the ad.
vance in paper is due to wood short
age. In earlier days the paper mills
were built in the lumber regions and
their pulp wood was a sort Of by
product of the saw milling industry.
But in most of these regions the saw
mills have finished, and they have
packed up, burned out, or moved
away for some other reason. But the
paper mill cannot play the part Of
carpet bagger" quite so easily, and
as result the northeastern part OF
the United States has become large
ly dependent upon Canadian wood.
Spruce from Minnesota and Canada,
for example, is being hauled from 700
to 1900 miles to Wisconsin paper
mills. In New York state, where near
ly fifty per cent of our newsprint is
produced, sixty per cent of the pulp
and paper mills have absolutely no
timber supplies of their own. New
Hampshire and Maine appear to be
the only eastern states that still have
raw materials for making paper, and
there is well-grounded suspicion in
the paper trade that the day of profit
eering in spruce, hemlock, balsam and
poplar is pretty well under way.
The big papers, in any event, are
certainly eating up the little ones,
and their funny Sheets" magazine
sections and other irrelevant features
add to the tragedy of the proceedings.
At this time there is scarcely a CEN

made upon it for power for industrial
uses.
