Variations OF Temperature
Ii, South Dakota Explained

Pierre S. d., Dec. 19.-Tempera--
ture variations in South Dakotaf are
due chiefly to the high and low bAro-
metric preesntas which follow definite
paths accessible STATE In a general
easkAEly direction. according TO H, t.
CoIlnan. IN charge Of the government
weather bureau office here.
"a glance at. the weather chart
such as is published by the u. S.
weather bureau shows that the re-
dlced : to-the : sea-level barometer
readings naturally divide themselves
into regions OF high pressure areas
or shtghs' n low pressure areas or.
lows !" Mr.. Goldman says. These
highs and lows move across the
country insmore or less w~eil-deined
paths or tracks. Their general direc-
ton is eastward; either northeast,
southeast or due east. They never
now westward, although the cold Of
avery slowly moving southeastward
high will at TINES spread to the
Westward Of its path.
THE paths of highs and lows to
a large extent control the weather Of
South Dakota. These paths change
their location with7ths change OF sea-
sons, apparently with the change in
the altitude of the suns path in sum-
nter and winter,
Statistics Of the highs OF the
American continent show there are
two regions in which nearly all highs
make their appearance before enter
ing this country. One of these regions
|lies7of the Pacific coast of the United
States. and the other is that part of
the Dominion of Canada west of the
Tooth meridian, or Alberta,
!" Highs pass from the Pacific
ocean to the United States during all
months Of the year but the number is
at q, maximum in the spring and fall
months and at a minimum during the
summer and winter months, the win

SEE SUICIDE NATIONAL PERIL
Influential Japanese Newspapers ExaIt
Christia1 Idea as to the Sacred
ness of Life.

Suicide. (which has always been
prevalent In Japan, is, according to
the japanese press, even more rife
than ever since the financial crisis in
the Land of the Rising Sun, says the
Literary Digest in recent issue. The
Osaka Mainichi. which sees peril to
the nation In the prevalence of self
slaughter, acknowledges the excel
lences OF the Christian view that sui
eide, instead of being merely an apol-
Ogy for failure, is crime. Many sui
cides in Japan are due TO the fact that
the japanese have LESS attachment
to life than foreigners" and also to
the traditions of feudal times when
they belittled life.
The Osaka Mainichi says further {:
"Death-much more suicide-means
evasion of responsibility and
the notion that those who commit sui
eide have the keeneSt sense OF respon-
sibility is wrong Suicide Is the en-
bodiment of egoism and irresponsible
ty. One of the strong points of the
Christian people is their conviction
that TO kill ones self is as criminal
as to kill others"

REAL REPRESENTATIVES
Tampa Tribune)

The new members of the lower
house of the legislature from Marion
county seem anxious to be real rep
resentatives of the people, Judging
from the very fine move they have
made. The Ocala Star says:
"Our representatives to the legisla-
ture, Messrs. Hunter and Mayo, want
to learn the wishes of the people in
regard to legislation at Tallahassee
next April and May. For this purpose,
two meetings are to be held, at the
courthouse in Ocala. the first next
Saturday afternoon, 22nd, and the
following Saturday afternoon, the
29th. The citizens from all over the
county are requested to attend these
meetings and consult with our legis-
latcrs as to what will be best for the
county and state"
If the Marion county people take
their representatives at their word
and attend in the spirit in which the
meetings are called, discussing open
ly and fully the county's needs, advis-
ing with the representatives and list
ening to the reasons why certain pro-
posed elgislation should be enacted
then the people of Marion county are
going to be really represented in the
Legislature. The plan laid out by
Messrs. Hunter and Mayo of Marion
is an excellent one. The people OF
every county should be close to their
Representatives, else there is no com.
inunity of interest between them. and
no possibility of the people being real.
ly benefited by the representation they
have.
The attitude of the average legis.
lator in every state is "the people
elected me because of their great ad
miration for my brain, because my
lpolicies are pleasing to them, because
of my ability and capability; in othel
words, because / am a damned sigh
smarter man than any of them anc
they know it." 1t is refreshing, there
fore, to find two men, members of th'
Florida legislature, saying in advance
of the session, "come let US reason to
lgether."
/ If more representatives would hav'
these talk-it-over meetings before tn
sessions of the legislature fewer O.
them would be called on to explain
after the session adjourned.
] Ocala papers should encourage th'
people to take these men into thei
Iconfidence and help them make Mar
ion county a name in legislative wis
dom.
