EIGHTH GRADE GRADUATING
EXERCISES HELD.

The eighth grade graduating ex-
ercises held Saturday last in the
Gem Theatre were enjoyed by 'all
present. Fifty-seven of the Eighty
hree graduates of Haakon County
net at the County Superintend-
,nts office and marched in body
o the theatre, and a finer sight
IS seldom seen on the streets of
Philip.
The house was packed with the
parents and friends of the gradu-
ties and the program was pleas
ing to all.
The music furnished by Fern
and Esther Kingsbury and the
solos by Mrs. Ramsey were SO
heartily encored by the boys and
girls that they need no further
issuance they were appreciated.
Rev. Woodworth's talk on Game
of Life was good and within
reach of the boys and girls who
listened attentively and many good
thoughts were left with them that
cannot fail to help make bigger
and better men and women if re-
membered and applied to the COM
ing years of life.

r. A. BIELSKI TO LEAVE PHILIP

Philip and Haakon county is
soon to lose one of its best and
oldest business men. About the
first of September, r. A. Bielski
and family will move to Sioux
Falls where he will engage in the
practise of law.
Mr.. Bielski was one of the early
arrivals in Philip, coming here in
advance of the railroad. He es-
tablished the First State, Bank
and for several years was in active
charge of the conduct if its affairs.
Later he disposed of his banking
interests and engaged in the prac-
tise of law, associating with o. X.
Whitney. He also established the
Bielski Fran Loan Company, one
of the largest and most reliable
concerns of it's kind in western
South Dakota.
From the time of his arrival on
the townsite of Philip he has been
an active worker for the commun-
ity welfare and the advancement
/. of the country generally. He was
secretary of the first Commercial
Club organized during the early
days of our city He has since
served at various times on the city
and school boards, and at the pre-
sent time is member of the
Board of Education. He was instru-
mental in the organization, and is
heavy stakeholder in the Philip
Lioht & Power Company.
Mr.. Bielski will be associated in
law practice with Douglas Elliott,
of Sioux Falls, a son of Judge Ell
lott, at present federal Judge in
South Dakota. The firm name will
be Bielski & Elliott, and suitable
offices have been secured and will
be available by the first of the
month. Mr. Bielski has also pur-
chased residence in Sioux Falls
and expects to have possession at
that time.
| The business men of Philip will
regret the loss of one of their best
boosters, but will wish Dick every
success in his new location. He
will not give up his Haakon County
interests, however, but will retain
his real estate holdings, and the
Bielski Farm Loan Company will
be continued under the manage
ment of L. S. Wheeler.

Amendment For Soldiers
Bonus Submitted To A Vote

Much confusion exists as to just
what the recent session of the leg
islature did in regard to the mat
ter of soldiers bonus. They did
not pass law or make as appro-
priation. The constitution of the
state at the present time does not
permit that. The legislature did
submit a proposed amendment of
the constitution TO a vote of the
people at the November election.
As this is matter of considerable
interest to many Haakon county
people. we give the text of the
amendment in full.
BE it resolved by the senate of
the state of South Dakota, the
house of representatives concur
ing:
THAT at the next general cleo
ton in this state there shall be
submitted to a vote of the people
proposed amendment to the con
stitution of this state, which is
hereby agreed to, by adding tc
