County Highway Superintendent j
f. Buckmaster and County Comm
issioner f. w. Thode of Belvidere
all of whom returned the latter
part of last week enthusiastic
over the meeting and the Custer
Highway Association. and to them
we are indebted for a report Of
the convention.
The convention opened ON. the
afternoon of the 9th, with big
delegation Of representatives from
various towns along the route and
was called order by w. II. Wall
ace, president of the Association
Mayor Sheldon of Sheridan wei
coined the visitors to that city
and threw the gates open for
their entertainment. and "a we'll
deserved tribute was paid by him
to Secretary w. ID. Fisher, for the
unceasing efforts he had made to
bring the Custer Highway to its
present enviable stage of being
the best and most popular high
way in the nation. Austin North
of Billings, Mont, responded for
the delegates and he too paid =
glowing tribute to Mr.. Fisher.
After these addresses the conven-
ton settled down to routine busi.
ness of the Association and re-
prts were made from the various
officials, amongst those reporting
being Mr.. Buckmaster of kadoka
and all reports from all along the
route were to the effect that such
work was being done and moro
planned on the Custer Highway
and that this route would bc
kept as lit is today, the lostin tho
west.
At the Thursday session Of tn,
Association Governor Robert y
Carey of Wyoming, was the prin
cipal speaker of the day, while
George H. Henry, secretary of the
State Highway Commission, and
Mr.. Henry made most interest
ing address, and in the course OF
his remarks said that the enthusi-
asm for the Custer Battlefield
Highway was greater in South
Dakota than in any other state,
and assigned much Of the reason
for this to the fact that there are
more miles of road in South Oak
ota yer the Custer Highway than
in any other state. He said that
the highway travers thirteen cou-
mites in this state, and had great
er traffic over it than any other
state. Mr.. Henry also stated that
plans for next year call for extern
sive improvements on the high
way in addition to those made
this year.

The Northern Arizona State Fair held at Prescott during the latter part of October will provide the kiddies with a good time as well as the older people. The babies in the Better Babies Contest will of course be a center of great attrac- tion, but the bigger boys and girls will find an outlet for their pep in the Riddles Parade, which according to all information will simply "knock'em cold,' all along the route.

THE servants had retired and left
the old lady alone She sat be.
fore the decorated ana lighted tree
that was burdened with gifts that
seemed to have no destinations. For
Mrs. Stone was long past the wanting
OF gifts and no companions young or
Old, sat with her, because she wished
TO be alone with her mernor les.
She was not as alone as she seemed
to be, for, in the great chair opposite
TO hers memory placed the fairy figure
OF the child who had glanced and
danced about the house and under the
christmas tree of long ago. Beside
her there sat one who se.emed to lay
lis hand again upon t.srs in happy
and satisfied affection while there

youth who was once her hope for later
years. Again the old house seemed
full of joy, and noisy merriment drove
out the deathly Stiffness whi!ea the
tree that is always green spoke of the
immortality of happiness.
The next day, when the ser, ants
dismantled the evergreen tree, it was
round that every gift was marked
with name. and they were Eusy that
CHRISTMAS morning in distributing new
happiness about the neighborhood.
