crowd fell to and ate it up like
hungry harvest hands. But one
day a town woman wondered eff
to the Twin Cities, and when she
came back her church society put
on dinner and served it cafe
terra style" Now the idea has got
out into the country. Nevertheless
the picnic dinner is a great sue
cess.
The average man goes to pic
mic dinner to eat, and he doesn't
care how the food is dished up to
him. If he gets plenty, he doesn't
care for frills. And the town-men
will alweys get plenty when he
goes to country picnic. The av-
Ierage town-man, when at home.
has piece of grape fruit for
breakfast, a thin trace of dried
beef and an olive for dinner, and
cracker and leaf Of lettuce for
supper. Then he kids himself with
the belief that he is living we'll.
Consequently when he sits down
to a real country picnic dinner, his
appetite is a scandal to his wife
and the people who brought him
out from town We will not say
that he makes hog of himself,
because we do not wish to cast
disparagement upon a useful farm
animal that has fairly decent re-
putation SO far as its eating is
concerned.
1t is hard to tell just what dis
aster the town-man's appetite
would lead him into, if a rainstorm
did not come up just after he has
his fourth helping cafeteria

the picnic, or it. would be no pic

NEW LAWS ENACTED
BY SPECIAL SESSION


Ninety-five laws and resolutions
were passed by the recent special
session of the legislature, pretty
fair grist for a week of legislating.
A few of these laws may fall by
the wayside in the Governor of
fee, as he is threatening to veto
some of the appropriation bills,
but / in the main the lawyers and
others interested, will have con-
siderable store of legislative en-
actInent to digest as soon as the
session laws are published. which
will be soon.
Some of the enactments are of
particular interest at this time.
Among these may be mentioned:
An act authorizing preliminary
steps to be taken to provide a
Governors Mansion: an appropria-
ton to purchase Sylvan Lake as a
part of a State Park, which will
give the state one of the most
beautiful parks in the whole coun-
try, an act authorizing an increase
Iii the rate on municipal bonds; an
act restoring the office Of county
Justice of the peace wiped out by
the recent enactment of the code;
an act authorizing state banks to
pay six per cent interest on certi-
fictes of deposit; and also several
acts correcting defects in the re-
Gently enacted probate code.
Several of the new laws are of
pecplias interest to the people of
Haakon county. Among these may
be noted: an act placing the school
systems of small cities and towns
under the jurisdiction of the CO.
unity superintendent of schools; an
amendment of the law in relation
to mortgage registration taxes; an
act regulating the use of highway
funds; an act regulating and chan
ging the system of state hail in
surance; an act allowing the coun
ty commissioners to make extra
|ordinary appropriations for brid-
ges destroyed by foods; law au-
lthorizing increased levies for brid-
ges; an act increasing the power
of county commissioners to erect
buildings out of current revenues
without bond issues, and an act
regulating the salary of boards of
education; and an act regulating
the transportation of school chill
dren.

OFF TO THE PICNIC. WHOOP LA

The American picnic is one of
our greatest national institutions.
We believe that it is greater than
the Bunker Hill monument or the
Yellowstone Park. Greater, in fact,
than the constitution.
A picnic means the country. No
picnic worthy of the name was
ever held in town As well try to
have a husking bee in a church
basement. So after the picnic has
been duly announced by the Farm
Bureau, and the Great Day arrives,
everybody loads up with his wife,
his fork and knife, and his neigh
bors wife, and hurrys away as fast
as gasoline will carry him to some
shady country grove.
There are a lot of things that
make a picnic success, but the
most important is the dinner. 1t
is this that puts joy in the affair.
Speakers and singers, ball-players
and foot-racers, and others of their
kind always abound at picnic,
are always impressed with their
Importance. and always imagine
tL.at the picnic could not be held
without them, but they are very
small potatoes, when placed along
side the real event, the dinner.
Everybody goes TO picnic to
get good meal, and they always
get it here in Haakon county. Now
adays the dinner is served cafe
terra style" Time was when pic
mic was served without any style,
The generous women of the coun-
try-side just brought on the dinner
in great market baskets, and the

SIOUX FALLS THE METROPOLIS
OF THE STATE.

The federal census showing the
population Of Sioux Falls has just
been announced, and the figures
show that city far in the lead Of
all other cities in the state. The
nearest competitor for first honors
is evidently Aberdeen, and the pop
Iiation of that city, announced a
week ago, is just over $4,000, near
ten thousand behind Sioux Falls.
Sioux Falls is truly thriving city
It is by long odds the leading city
of South Dakota, not only in popu-
lation but also in a financial and
business way.
The Argus-Leader, makes the
the following modest comment,
when the figures were announced:
With a population Of 25,176, as
reported by the official federal CEN
sus, SiouxFalls gets into the
charmed circle of cities over
25,000." During the 10 years we
have made an incrsease of 1852
people or nearly 1000 per year.
The percentage Of increase is en-
.ough to attract attention. rs Is per
cent. Those who expected the CEN
sus to show a popultion of close
to $4,000 were little disappointed
but the Argus Leader long ago
made up its mind to be satisfied
with showing of anything over
5000 and wehave made this show
ing. The basis is now laid for a
great growth during the next de-
cade and this growth will begin
to show itself rapidly as soon as
building costs come down so that
people who want to move to Sioux
Falls can find place to live here.

70 PROVIDE EXECUTIVE
MANSION FOR GOVERNOR

The recent session Of the legis-
lature took the first steps to pro-
wide a home at Pierre for the Cow
|ernor and his family at state ex-
|pense. Never has the chief execu-
tive officer Of the state had an adj
equate home at our state capitol.
Each time new governor is elect
ed he has to run around Pierre like
a common clerk to find decent
place to live The more suitable
homes are never to rent, and re-
Gently the situation has been such
that Govrnor Norbeck has had to
move his family to his former
home in Redfield.
This brought recommendation
for him in his message to the Leg
islature, and that body has taken
the first steps to secure plans.
location, and estimates of the cost
of a governors mansion. Let us
hope that the plan will be carried
through. Other states have Exc
cutive Mansions. South Dakota
should have one. Nothing else
meets the dignity that should go
with the governors office.
The Pierre Capitol Journal in
commenting on the matter, says:
Governor Norbeck, in calling
attention to the fact that his fam
lily had to return to Rerfield be-
cause they could find no suitable
home in Pierre this summer, dis
closed the necessity of the state
supplying a governors residence
here. A few years ago when there
were plenty of good houses to rent
we did not think it was such
necessity for the state to supply
an executive residence but it must
be generally conceded that no man
lis desirous Of doing business some
where other than where his family
resides. If the governor Of the.
state cannot have his family in
Pierre it is reasonable to expect
| that he will not be present as
much in his office as he otherwise
might and really should. The peo-
pie expect state officers to reside
and give attention to public bust
ness ait the point where their of
flee is located As things now are
the governor Of the state cannot
rent residence in Pierre that is
fitting for the home of chief ex-
ecutive. We believe the legisla-
ture will realize that public busir
mess demands personal attention Of
| the chief executive and that he is
lentitled to have his family live
with him in the city.
