"SiIRDle Souls" !"

On Tuesday of next week June
1st, under the auspices Of Christ
Church, very remarkable film is
to be shown at the Bentley Grand
Theater. 1t is brand new and filled
with new spirit which makes it
worthy to be shown for such a
cause.
There has never been picture so
unique as "Simple Souls" Accor-
ding to all press comment there has
never beeen a Blanche Sweet quite

A faithful adaptation of the now
el by John Hastings Turner. "Sim-
pie Souls,' is romance of sweet
simplicity wound around two of the
quaintest and most lovable. real
human beings we have had the op-
portunity Of meeting in q long
while. It bubbles over with youth
and romance; and points clearly to
the longing after an ideal.
To see this picture will be refresh
ing after the cut and dried love
and western pictures with which
the market has been flooded. Those
who zee it will congratulate them
selves upon having had theopportu-
nifty Of witnessing Simple Souls. :"

Graduating Exercises,


The city schools have bee Fin the

the past week, and very properly
SO, for people generally take COM
mendable interest in the education
Of their children and the public
school system of the country is rec
ognized as one of the foundation
stones upon which the republic is
built. On Sunday evening the bac-
calaureate sermon was delivered by
Rev. Stanley Phones. rector OF the
Episcopal church. who appea ed to
the young people to rise above the
ambition for mere money getting.
and to concentrate their energies
on the building of a character rath-
er than the piling up of material
things. He besou9ht them to use
their intellects and stated that the
crying sin of the age was that peo-
pie refused to think and desired
only to be entertained. He urged
the young people to seek for happi-
ness rather than pleasure.
The high school orchestra under
the leadership of Miss Holmcren
rendered several selections during
the evening. A scripture reading
and prayer by Rev. C. P. Bast, and
benediction by Rev. w. C. Menges
completed the program. which was
held in the. Methodist church. the
building being completely filled for
the occasion.

Wool Growers Or8anize

The wool growers of western
Grant county and southern Roberts
county have joined the South Dako-
ia ASSOCIATION and will pool their
wool this coming season for ship
ment. Last year 20 counties of the
state pooled their wool and adver-
tised for bidders. When the bid
ders arrived the wool was sold
at profit of 6 cents per pound
more than the local buyers could
pay was realized by growers. The
Iowa .plan will be followed by
the growers this season. The wool
is gathered to central shipping
point and shipped to the National
wool Warehouse and Storage Co. in
Chicago, where it is sold. This
company is owned by the Wool
Growers Association Of the West
and netted the growers 1870
NOR pound for their produce than
they would have been able to get
from the local buyers.
AT meeting OF a few OF the
growers of the two counties at
Summit last Monday afternoon it
was decided to load a car a. that
place during the last week in June.
r. r. Buchanan. Roberts County
Agent, and Mr.. Holmes from the
state college were present and ex-
planned the workings of the pan.
Mr.. Swift will work thruout the
county and interest the wool grow
ers in the plan and to find out if
another car could be loaded in the
county. Plans for the loading will
be made and announced later.

Wheaton a few weeks ago and will
probably make a good showing in
spite Of the fact it is three weeks
late in getting on the band wagon.
Beardsley was at the bottom of the
list and did not make sufficient
showing to entitle its hackers to
stick out the season.

Miss Lucille Halliday communi

Miss Halliday and she scored an In

game and during the evening she
will have an important place on the
program. The speeches and other
numbers will be given immediately
after the banquet which will be for
the Legion members.
Dancing will complete the day if
the efforts of the committee can

Games Last Sunday

Standing Of League

Playing a good clean game of
baseball, the Milbank team won
the game played with Wheaton at
that place by score Of 20. The
win of Sunday places Milbank in
a tie with Ortonville for second
place in the league, with Clinton
and Graceville tied for first place.
Wheaton and Beardsley are at the
foot both having lost the two
games they have played.
Gill pitched steady game of
ball, pulling out of the tight place
by striking out the batter-up. He
CLEANED 16 strikouts, and allowed
no walks, while Watts, on the
mound for the Wheaton nine al
lowed Sullivan walk and gather
ed only 9 strikeouts.
The twoscores were made in
the third inning when Malsed
gained first on an error, was ad-
vanced to second by Gill, who put
a liner down thru shortstop. Nal
sed then stole third, and Gill went
to second, where he was called
safe by the umpire in spite of the
fact that the decision was close
and Wheaton claimed him out.
While the argument was in session
at second, Malsed stole home and
made the first tally for the game.
Markell was put out at first. but
Gill made third and made the sec
ond tally when Peschong hade a
clean hit over theshortstop.
During the second, fourth and
seventh the Wheatonites had sew
eral men on bases, but in ali tight
places Gill struck out the batters.
Milbank had three inen on bases
during the eighth but failed to
make the necessary hits to bring
in another tally.
Ortonville, who crosses bats
with the locals next Sunday vas
defeated by the Graceville aggre-
CATION by score of Ga. The game
next Sunday promises to @be a
speedy one, not only because OF
the cact that dropping the game
would place Milbank in fourth
place, but also Ortonville and
Milbank have always played
speedy games that draw big
crowds. If the baseball dope runs
true to form and the teams play
the same brand of baseball that
they have in the first three games,
Milbank, Graceville and Wheaton
should be the winners, placing
Graceville at the top with four
wins, Milbank and Clinton tied for
second place, Ortonville fourth
and Wheaton next, with Beardsley
the loser of four games.
