Rock Many Religious Associations.
A report on the Dome of the Rock
Of Jerusalem is shortly to be published
and will be of great interest to the Ma
hommedan world. 1t may not be gen
orally known that this place is the
third in sanctity of all the sanctuaries
of Islam, and indeed for short period
it actually formed the Kibla toward
which all Moslems prostrated them
selves in prayer. Among the more I'M
portant religious associations Of this
rock we may mention that it was here
that David and Solomon were called to-
repentance, and ON account of vision
David chose this site for his temple
From this same spot Mohammed as
cended to the Seventh Heaven after
his night journey from Mecca, and last
ly it is to be the scene of the Great
Judgment. The historical associations
are not less striking andsuch famous
names as Omar, Abd-el-Malek, Saladin
and Suleiman are all connected with
the rock.-Egqm the zanzib4r Gazette.

Miss Lucy Page CASTOR of Chicago,
representing thu National Anti Cigar
ct League. recently addressed = letter
to President-e Harding asking him
to refrain from the use of cigarets as
an example to the youth of the land.
Mr.. narding's reply is characteristic
for frankness. He says:
81 think it is fne to eave the
youth of america from the tobacco
habit I think, however. the move.
ment ought to be carried on in per.
feet good faith and should ba free
from any kind of hypocrisy or deceit
on the part of those who are giving
it their attention. u
In this connection it might be re-
membered that George Washington,
the idol of the country, was con-
stant user Of Intoxicating liquors.
and probably had other personal hab-
it's which the sentiment Of the present
age would not approve. Complaint
was once made to President Lincoln
that General Grant INDUCED too fre-
quentlv in the use of Intoxicating
liqucre, but the president only re-
piled. "Do you know what brand Of
liquor Gen. Grant uses! would like
to get some of it for my other gener-
ais. - It is very probable that Miss
CASTOR wears high heeled shoes and
low cut dresses, both of which are
declared to be injurious to the health,
but che would resent criticism on that
account. We have no perfect epeci-
mems of humanity in the present age,
vet without condoning these imper-
fections the crank who criticises our
officials for indiscretions that do aot
interfere either with'their morals or
their ability to perform their import
ant public duties may we'll be charged
with insincerity and meddlinR.

Mr.. George Dunmire, president of
the Scotland school board. informs us
that he has been inveatigatiDg the
cost of providing temporary room for
the extra classes and seating capacity
that will be needed next year in case
the bond issue should again be defeat
cd. The figures show that the cost
of providing temporary quarters
would be fully rs much annually as
the annual cost Of paying Interest
and sinking fund on the proposed
twenty year bond issue for perma.
nent building. Eventually a perma
nent building will have to be built.
and the money necessary for provid-
ing temporary quarters might be
spent in reducing the debt on the per.
manent building. From his investi-
cation Mr.. Dunmire thinks that a
building costing $50, 600 @en!d snp
ply the needs of the schools for
many years.

WOULD PROHIBIT D0G-EATING
Custom Common Among the Iaorots
Is Declared to Be Undesirable
for Many Reasons.

Those who remember the article in
this magazine short time ago tell
ing of the cruelties connected with
the killing Of dogs for food among the
Igorots, says Our Dumb Animals,
will be glad to know that it has
aroused sufficient interest to cause
the Manila Daily Bulletin to say, ac-
cording to clipping we have just re-
ceived
''The Office of the Department Of the
Interior is constantly receiving from
persons in the United States, mostly
women, letters protesting against dog
eating in the mountain province
among the Igorots, it was declared by
Secretary Kalaw of the department.
All Of them, he said, urge that in the
interests Of civilization and better
and higher mode of living, a law
should be passed by the Philippine
legislature prohibiting the sale and
the use of dogs as food material.
aside from the fact that the act
of eating dogs is highly undesirable,
the letters state, it is very inhumane.
The lgorots, they state, like to eat
lean dogs and that the more bony
they are, the more palatable they
taste to the Igorots. Consequently,
when dog is bought in the dog mar
ket Mt Basuio or at any. other place,
it is left TO starve. for many days be-
fore it is eaten, tire communications
declare.
"When asked if the passage Of q
law prohibiting the sale and the eat
ing of dogs by the Igorots was in or
der. Secretary Kalaw declared that it
alight be, done IN IA lu1lrect manner" !"

A Pierre dispatch Of January 18th

says.
Sunday. January %. has been
designated by Governor McMaster as
Law and Order Sunday in proc1a-
nation issued Friday. The purpose
of the observance Of the day in this
m amer. the governor said. is TO Off.
set the wcfld-wide wave Of m:strust
and unrest apparent since the begin
ming Of the reaction from the world
war and the commencement Of recon.
struction work. The governor eug.
gests that the day be observed with
appropriate addresses and exercises:
and that during the week following
exercises be held in the public schools
to. implant in the minds Of American
youth respect for the law. regard for
the duties of citizenship. loyal devo.
tion to their country and whole,
hearted desire for its continued exist
ence and for the preservation OF its
free and liberal Institutions. :"
1t there il anything that tho peo-
pie need at the present time 1t is an
awakening to tha importance of law
observance. The multiplicity Of
laws with which the people are hedg-
ed about makes it almost impossible
for people Ct good intent to observe
all of them, and realizing this the
courts have been very lsnient in en-
forcing many of them. This has
ch-apened the regard for all laws
until the condition is becoming criti-
cal. The old idea that laws should
be observed because they are laws.
has given place to sentiment that
laws are something to be observed If
it is to our own interest. and disre.
garded if they can be without being
caught. This condition is closely al
lied with anarchy where every person
is law unto himself. 1t must be
admitted that many of our laws
should be repealed. but to neglect to
enforce them for this reason cheapens
all laws. The best way to get rid of
an unwi,e law is to enforce it. and
public sentiment will soon demand it's
repaai.

The location of the hydro.e electric
power plant seems to be somewhat up
in the ar. The state commission
recommended Mobridge and it was
thought by many that the decision of
this commission was to be final.
Then the matter was referred to the
attorney general, and his opinion was
that wkatever action the Legislature
might take in locating the plant
would be subject to referendum
vote, This puts new phase on the
situation. The supporters of the
Mobridge site have the backing of
the commission. and of the Milwaukee
railroad company. which would like
to get power to electrify it's trans
continental line, while the Mulehead
supporters undoubtedly would have
the support ef majority of the pop.
ular vote, as this site is nearer the
center of population and would ac-
commodate more of the citizens.
The cement commission has recon.
mended Rapid City as the site for the
state cement plant. The tract Of
land containing the cement rock at
thi. place consists of FIVE hundred
acres. which can be purchased for
$25, 600. The cost of the property
would be much more than that
amount, but the business men Of
Rapid City have agreed to pay the
he!ea:e cut Of their own pocket il the
plant is located there. It is claimed
that the cost of production would te
much less at that place than at any
of the other sites Investigated. but
the principal consumption would be
east of the Missouri river, and freight
rates from Rapid City east are at
present exorbitant. 90 the saving on
cost of production might be more than,
overcome by the increased cost of
distribution.
