Alice Benson of the Philip High
School, who was awarded one of
te three third prizes for essays on
Highway Safety in the contest
put on last autumn. This cam
paign is put on each year and is
attracting considerable attention
over the country.
An essay by Lylas Peterson, of
Sisseton, won first honors for
South Dakota, and entities the
pupil to receive a gold medal and
fifteen dollars, and the essay now
represents South Dakota before
the national essay committee for
consideration in the award of three
grand prizes.
In lesson contest among teach
ers conducted simultaneously, the
best manuscript was submitted by
+. B Green, Hellmer rural school,
Blunt, Hughes county. His lesson
designed to instruct children in
safe behavior on the highways, al
so represents the state before the
national lesson committee. No
state prizes were offered teachers.
Second honors in the essay con-
test went to Dorothy G. Prouse,
101 Summit Street, Lead, a pupil
in Central school. She receives a
silver medal and ten dollars.
Three third prizes, bronze me-
dals and five dollars, were awarded
the following pupils:
Ruth Robinson, Tyndall; Alice
Benson, Philip, and Ella Larson,
Viborg, Independent school district
No. 4. Checks and medals have
been.sent city superintendent of
schools or principals, for presen-
tation.
In announcing the result Of the
contest in this state, the commit
tee also made known the person
mel of the two national commit
tees to grade the best essay and
the best lesson respectively from
each state. These committees were
appointed by Dir. John J. Tigert,
United States Commissioner of
Education, and chairman of the
Highway and Highway Transport
Education Committee.
The lesson committee will con-
slider one lesson from each state
and territory, and will award three
national prizes, the first of which
is five hundred dollars and trip
to Washington. The second and
third prizes are three hundred dol
lars and two hundred dollars res
pectively. The essay committee
will read the best essay from each
state and territory, and award
three national prizes. The first is
gold watch and a trip to Wash
,ington, and the second a gold low
ing cup, and the third a silver low
ing cup. All prizes given in the
two contests are the donations of
the National Automobile Chamber
of Commerce 1t is estimated that
more than 100000 pupils and 3d.
900 teachers participated in the
campaign. A similar campaign,
having for its purpose the reduc-
ton of traffic accidents, will be
undertaken this autumn, the Ma
tional Chamber of Commerce again
giving the prizes

VIPONT STAGE WRECKED

There seems to be sort of moo
doc on Wallace Hale's truck. On
July "a it was held up by bandits;
on August % ii was wrecked. On
the latter occasion, Mr. Hale was
not present, the truck being driven
by Joseph Johnston. Theer had been
a rain between Oakley and Vipont,
making the Birch creek road sex-
tremely slippery. The wheels skid
ded till the truck lost its balance,
rolling down the embankment, and
turning over three times.
There were eight men in the
truck, five of whom received injur-
les more or less serious, but not re-
garded as dangerous. Those injur-
ed were Joseph Johnston, BUD
Hoarm. Harry Riles, Sam Peterson,
Clifford Morley. Those who escaped
injury were Sam Sease, Sumner
Hale and Glenn Bates. The car
was somewhat damaged, but not IN
its major parts.

men present. 1t was when Presi-
dent Nelson ordered the straw bal
lot election tellers to receive IN
structions from tht secretary, Art
Solomon 1t happened that Mrs.
Solomon. was one of the tellersThe
situation was so extraordinary that
all the married men cheered and de-
manded that Secretary Solomon
make a speech. He responded brief
ly and solemnly declared that this
was the first time he had ever hal I
the privilege of giving his wife in
struction. Many of the men Shoot;

In some ways, the incident was
rather sad, for, as DR.. Johnson said.
one never consciously performs an
act for the last time without feel
Ings of sadness.
