Notice to the Public

We are making an endeavor to get all the little
children out on Christmas morning so they may enjoy
Santa Claus and the Christmas tree provided by the
Elks. 1t is easy enough for us to get in touch with
all the children who attend school but difficult TO get
in touch with those who don't, therefore we would re-
quest that all grown-ups advise any children that they
know who do not attend school to go TO the nearest
schoolhouse between 9 and 9 80 on Christmas morn
ing, and they will be picked up there by automobiles
and taken to the tree. Arrangements have been made
to have the schools open and warm. If you know of
any children who are crippled please call 252 and an
automobile will be sent for them.

Dell Rapids, S. D., March 5--By
majority Of SO the aldermanic form

in vogue here, according to the re-

ward gave a majority for retaining
the aldermanic system, although
comparatively small vote was polled
and little enthusiasm shown in the
election. Only about $50 votes were
cast and about 43 of these by women.
Dell Rapids has had the aldermanic
form of city government since 1917,
at that time discarding the commits

time. The election yesterday was the
