NEW BOARD or
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS

The new Board of County Cimmiss-
toner's were sworn in Monday at noon
and Immediately proceeded to bust
ness The Board is conDosed of T.B.
Rrush, Richfield. Sam W. Bate, Diet
rich, and Ben Darrah, ShoshOne. Mr..
Brush was reelected and this is the
beginning of his second term. Mr..
Bate and Mr.. Darrah are serving their
first term as commissioners. The
Board organized by electing II B.
Brush Chairman All members Of the
Board expressed themselves os pro-
posing to conduct the affairs of the
county on the same economical basis
as they would their own private bust
ness. The Board made a good start
on the county business by acting with
great caution on all matters until
thoroughly understood. County bust
ness is a continuous affair, the same
as any private business, so in taking
hold it was necessary that the Board
take time to familiarize themselves
with the past history of nearly every
matter coming before them. This ex-
tended their first session over into
Tuesday afternoon. The utmost har-
mony prevailed and the start-off indi-
Gates that the work Of the county win
receive a most efficient and bushes
Fke consideration.

Sees Much Carelessness
In Modern CORRESPONDENCE

Pierre, S. D., Dec. 27.-'There is a
growing tendency to be- careless in
correspondence" declared Doane Rob-

least we find it 50 in this depart

Mr.. Robinson pointed to a pile of
letters received hat morning.
Those" he said, ARE nearly all
from people who have borrowed
books from the free library commits
sion, which sends out annually some
thing over 1000 packages, or travelling
libraries. They know from whom they
get the books and yet when they write
in about them they nearly always ad-
dress the letter to the state library.
The two departments are separated by
three lor. -four city blocks. To carry the
letters to the other department is in
convenient but not difficult but when
we get an arm load of books which
haveato he carried over. that is a diff
ferent matter.h
