Rev. Morrison, District Superin-
tendent, gave two interesting and
helpful sermons last Sunday. He
was very much pleased with the
work being done by the local
membership, especially the library
and play ground movements.
Several persons were baptized
and a number united with the
church at the morning service.
The Young Peoples Choir led
the music last Sunday night, Civ
ing special selections that were
enjoyed. Mrs. Ramsey at the piano
and Miss Mary Huss with the vio-
lin helped with the music.
On next Sunday morning the
Easter program will be given at
1920 o'clock, instead of in the
evening.
Last Saturday Mr.. Griggs with
three teams and a large force of
men and boys put in most of the
day working on the play grounds.
The place was cleared of rubbish
buildings moved, and the ground
leveled in shape for games with
several loads of sand added. Mon
ey has been subscribed as a begin
ing to use in purchasing equip
ment which will be installed as
soon as possible, with more to fol-

PHILIP BANK ADMITTED TO
FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM

The officers and directors of the
Bank of Philip are justly proud of
the fact that that institution was
recently admitted to membership
in the Federal Reserve System. a
thing that many state banks have
tried in vain to accomplish.
We are not familiar with the
steps that are necessary, but we
do know that it is necessary for
a state bank to make an excellent
showing in many ways before
they can be accepted to member
ship. 1t is necessary for them to
show a much larger reserve than
is required by the state laws.
There are also other matters that
the government officers look into
thoroughly before they pass favor
ably upon the application.
This gives the depositors not
only the guaranty under the state
laws, but also the backing of the
governments banking system 1t
also gives the bank additional
strength in that they have the fed
eral banks back of them the same
as the all national banks.

HAAKON COUNTY FAIR
SEPTEMBER 1st, 2nd & 3rt

Edward A. Lins, Secretary of the
Haakon County Fair informs us
that the dates set for the Annual
Fair this year are, September 1st,
End and 3rd. These dates were
deemed better by those in charge
as they come the latter part Of the
week, rather than the for part as
was suggested by some.
The secretary, board of commits
sioners and the farm bureau are
already busy making arrangements
for the fair which will be bigger
and better than ever, If their eff
forts count for anything. 1t is
too early as yet to state just what
the main attractions will be, other
than that special attention will be
given to farm products and live
stock SO that this department will
show a marked improvement over
all previous years.

Ross Stone, section foreman at
Powell met with a very serious ac-
cident last Friday, and he may
consider himself fortunate that is
alive today. The speeder in which
he is in the habit of making the
trip over his section left the track
on a bridge near Powell and drop
ped several feet into the creek be-
low. Mr.. Stone was pinned under
meath the machine, which crushed
one of his arms and bruised other
wise. Had he fallen squarely under
it he would have been instantly
killed. DR.. Gearhart was called
and removed him to the local hos
pital where his injuries were at
tended to. He is reported to be
getting along nicely at this time
although he will be several weeks

From all reports the Homestake
Mining Company is fast regaining
it's prestige as a producing prop
erty. During the war the mine
was almost forced to close down
because of loss of labor. This help
has returned and now labor prices
have fallen very generally below
the chedule paid at the Homestake

in it's number of employees. When
this company is again operating
to full capacity Lawrence county
will have secured q big increase
in its census as compared to the
showing of 1920.

The Commercial Club and the
Haakon County Farm Bureau are
making arrangements to prepare
the best state fair exhibit this year
that has ever been sent in from
west river county. An approp-
ration has been made by the Com
mercial Club to help defray the
expenses and the farmers are urg-
ed to prepare a plot for the pur-
pose of raising products for this
express purpose. That is the plan
that has been decided upon and it
only requires the cooperation of
i the farmers to put it over. Why
not make the necessary prepara-
tions now?

The subscription from local or
carnations for the Near East Re-
lief have been coming in generous
ly and promptly. The Commercial
Club was one of the first to report
with a contribution of $25, altho
only asked for $40. This spirit of
generosity on the part of the Com
mercial club toward an enterprise
from which it can expect no dir
act benefit in return is indeed re-
freshing and commendable.
The churches, lodges and sOcie-
ties and Sunday Schools are also
coming forward with their dona-
tions with true philanthropic in
terest.
IF those who were large contri-
butors to Red Cross funds during
the war, had their way, the Legion
would not want for funds with
which to build club house. These
contributors would shout defiance
to the headquarters Of the North
arn Division at Minneapolis, some
thing after this manner: We
gave this money three years ago
to aid the soldiers, sailors and ma
rines. 1t was our money given
freely. and the Red Cross has al
lowed four or five thousand dol
lars to lie idle in the banks of
Philip for three years. Now we
want that money to go to our boys
for whom we first donated it. "
However, Minneapolis doesn't
respond favorablyt to such appeals
and the only way to get authority
for the use of such funds for an
ax-services mems club is to take
The matter to National Red Cross
headquarters. That is just what
| Wheeler-Brooks Post proposes tc
do.

The following letter has been

ard Wood, who is in charge of the
Near East Relief Fund. Various
plans have been adopted by the
communities in South Dakota to
raise the funds. One county in the
state will go without supper on
Good Friday and each person will
donate to the fund whatever he
estimates the value of the meal so
sacrificed. If every resident of the
county would do this it would am
cunt to several times the sum ne

COOPERATIVE COTTON MARKET
PLAN COMPLETED FOR GEORGIA

ton is one of ten similar associations,
forming under contracts practically
identical in terms, in other southern
Estates, one of which, in Oklahoma,
has Just completed a sign-up for 800,
900 bales by signing over 100000 in
four months. The State Associations
when as many as three are complete,
will be formed into great marketing
unit covering the entire cotton belt,
which will be many times the largest
single cotton-selling factor in world

pooled in separate pool for each
grade and each. grower putting cot
ton into one OF the pools will hold a
percentage interest, proportionate to-
the amount of cotton he has put in,
in the entire pool Membership in
the association will cost five dollars
as an organization fee Thereafter,
there are no dues, expenses of rum
ming the business being deducted pro-
portionately from the amount re-
turned to each grower upon the sale
of the cotton The association Sc
cures money advances and makes all
financing arrangements for the MEM
Der growers.
| The work of organizing the asso-
citation was delegated by the conven-
ton to an organizing committee
which has already gone to work, and
has established the Atlanta office.

son, farmer, President of the exist
ing cooperative warehouse, of Jeffer-
son, Ga, as Treasurer. Mr. Johnson,
