KfWANIS SPEAKER URGES
WORK AMONG THE BOYS
Clubs Ideal Is Building of Char
acter in Men of Tomorrow,
Saws John Hill.

kiwanans can take part in no big
ger movement than boy work" said John
Hill, lieutenant-g governor Of the Missouri
Kansas Kiwsnis district, at the club lun
cheon at the Daniel Boone Tavern today
Taking care of the boy Of today j.
caring for the man of tomorrow
In St. Louis twenty-three kiwanians
have taken as many boys who have fallen
into bad ways through bad environment
associates or living conditions and have
undertaken TO remake these boys. They
meet with the boys twice week. su-
pervise their play, their work and their
living conditions: provide books for those
who like to read, and exercise a general
supervision over them as father
should do.
The motto of the Kiwanis Club is Eve
build Mr.. Hill pointed out that this
does not mean merely building monu-
ments to mems ingenuity but rather the
building Of souls and minds.
In discussing the future of the local
club. M. Hill said that the success o,
the organization depended on the indi-
yidual action of each member. He said
that men did not enter the kiwanis Club
for what they could get out Of it, but
rather for what they could put into it.
The more each member puts into his
work for the club, just that much more
will he get out Of it.
The speaker stressed the importance
Of having full attendance at each meet
ing. Paper assets are worthless in busi-
ness he said, so why keep them in
club? Members who never attend
meetings are just so much paper, and
should be discarded.
Never allow non-essenlials to clutter
up the machinery of the club. he con-
tinued. 'kiwanis is big organization
and should attempt TO handle only big
subjects which will act for the greatest
good"
There are at the present time 676 clubs
in the United States and Canada, with
membership of 10000. President War
ren G. Harding is a member of Kiwanis,
as are many other leaders of political life
in Washington.
Mr.. Hill told of some of the specific
things that the clubs had done in various
parts of the country. At the present time
the St. Louis club is raising fund
build a Boy Scout Shelter at lrondale.
Mo. AT Piusburg. Kan. the kiwanis
club floaied bond issue for new high
school.
W. W. Charters. former dean of the
School of Education of the University.
also spoke at the meeting today. AL
though Mr.. Charters is not a member o
the Kiwanis Club he declared himself in
accord with its ideals. He said that one
fault with modern education was that too
much stress was laid on information and
not enough on character building and
ideals. He said that the Kiwanis Cuf
was raising ideals in business. and thi
the schools must raise them among tll'
younger people.
Forty-one of the fifty members we-'
present at the meeting today. The ques
iion of sending a delegate to the Inter
national Convention of Kiwanis at To-
Tonto, June 20 to y, was discussed bui
no action taken. The next meeting o.
the club will be held next Tuesday. The
club will receive its charter on the G.
ming on May l6.

Camping Privileges at State Fair

Camping space and privileges will
be free at the State Fair camping
grounds. Arrangements have been
made so that parties wishing to camp
may rent tents at a nominal price.
The tents will be up and ready for use
when YOU arrive. Grocers and deal
ers will deliver supplies to the camp
each day.
The grounds that have been set
aside are well located and are well
adapted to camping purposes. They
are situated far enough to one side
to afford OPPORTUNITIES for rest and
recreation and yet are conveniently
located with reference to the attrac-
tions and exhibits. The grounds will
be carefully policed and in care of a
responsible person. They will be reg
ularly laid out and if arrangements
are made in advance families will be
grouped according to the locality from
which they come which will add to
the pleasure of the outing. If it is
desired to rent tents arrangements
should be made before hand. Fur
ther information may be obtained ut
the Farm Bureau Office.

YOU will admit that we are not far

Mellette county alfalfa.
The Mellette County pioneer. [volume] (Wood, Mellette County, S.D.) 19??-1971, 1922-08-11

Editor Beetham of the Murdo Gov
ote last week again opened up the al
falfa discussion which we some weeks
ago very innocently precipitated when
we stated in write up of a trip
that we took through Mellette, Jack
son and Jones counties, that "Alfal-
ia is great. but much better in this
county than in either Jones or jack
con county as far as we could see. F"
Brother Beetham took exception to
this statement and came back at US,
claiming that they had better alfalfa
IN Jones county, or at least as good
as we had here in MclIctte, and the
same article made the statement that
Jones county had over 500 acres of
alfalfa. When we read his comment,
personally we believed that the Editor
of the Coyote had been misinformed
or had made an error III giving the
figures on the acreage of alfalfa in
his county, but it was not for us to
contradict his figures. In our former
reply we stated that if Jones county
had only 500 acres Of alfalfa that
we believed we could skin 'em on
acreage also. He published our reply
without comment and we believed the
discussion closed.
1t appears, however, that some of
the farmers over there did not want
the figures to stand that Jones county
had only 500 acres of alfalfa, so last
week Brother Beetham endeavors to
square himself with the home folks.
He admits that when he published the
figures on the alfalfa acreage in Jones
county in his first reply to us, that
he was sure that it was five some
thing, but was not sure whether it
was 500 or 5000 acres, and rather was
under the impression that the lat
ter figure was too high. Brother
Beetham, in his last article on the sub
.iect, states that the Jones County
Agent assures him that his county
has 5000 acres of alfalfa, but gives
no exact figures. Well, we hope they
have that much alfalfa acreage in
the county to the north of us, for
every acre of alfalfa increases the
wealth Of that county by quite con-
siderable.
However, since the article in last
weeks Coyote came to our notice,
we have done a little Investigating
rs to the alfalfa acreage in Mellette
county, one Of the very Youngest coun-
ties in the state, and the figures are
quite interesting. According to the
statis'rs gathered by the deputy as
SCISSORS Of this county, Mellette coun-
ty has an alfalfa acreage of 1851
acres. 2,l45 acres Of this alfalfa are
located in the eastern half of the
county, and 1856 acres are in the
western half. Whether or no these
figures are absolutely correct we know
not, but they are as nearly accurate
as it is possible to get them. The al
falfa acreage is increasing very rapid
" in this county, and there are
mighty few farms, especially in the
cast end of the county, that have not
n good patch of alfalfa started and
every farmer is increasing his acreage
as rapidly as he can. The chances are
