READY FOR FIRST GAME

With the first game Of the season
with De Smet high school a week from
Saturday. Brookings high school finds
itself in d better condition than it has
enjoyed for several years at the be-
ginning of the season. This is in a
large part due to the hard and consis.
tent training of the large squad by
Coach Nicholson since the beginning
of school. There are forty men on
the squad who are working hard for
a berth on the first team. This is the
largest assortment Of material which
a football coach in B~rookings has had
to pick from, which shows a renewed
interest in football among the students.
No positions have been assigned def
initely as yet, and each man will have
to keep right up on his toes all season
to maintain his place il he once wins
it.. In order to adequately fiance ath-
letics the high school students are
following the plan OF the college In
issuing student tax tickets. This with
better attendance at the games will
put the athletic association In q much
better DOsitiOu than II Waa laa< n

Asks Support Of
Brookings Women
Public Health Director Ex-
plains How This County
Can Benefit from Shep-
pard Towner Law.

DR.. Clara r. Hayes, director Of the
Of child hygiene of the State
Board Of Health, addressed the club
women Of Brookings last Thursday at
the city hall urging action in this
county to take advantage Of the pro-
visions Of the Sheppard-Towner law.
If Brookings county is to be one Of the
few counties in South Dakota to lead
in the health center work which is
made possible by state and federal
appropriations, the burden OF the pro-
motion and organization of health
work must be shouldered by the wo-
men OF the community.
South Dakota has accepted the pro-
visions OF the Sheppard-Towner law
and has made the necessary %appropria-
tons to match the federal grants for
two years. For the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1922, this totalled ~S7,872.14.
For the next fiscal year the sum avail
able is 23,536.22 which includes the
federal gift Of $4,000. the federal ap-
preparation Of $9,293.1l and an equal
appropriation by the state. With this
the State Board Of Health will estab-
lish health centers in each county
cooperation is forthcoming ard
where the health center is desired.
In order to insure the permanence
OF the work. an appropriation Of $780,
900 annually by the State will be nee.
essary. To secure this legislation will
require a vigorous and sustained eff
fort by the women Of the state. The
purposes OF the health center are man
fold, pertaining principally to safe
guarding the health OF mothers and
children. The result aimed at will be
the prevention Of numerous deaths due
to maternity and childhood diseases.

JUNIOR EXHIBITS FINE

The livestock exhibits of the boys
and girls clubs this year were much
better, both in quantity and quality,
any similar showings at the state
fair" said Paul j. ScarbrO, state club
leader, in commenting on the 1922 state
fair club work. The great increase
in the number Of baby beef and poul-
try exhibits ives especially gratifying.
Then, too, the greater number of dem
OnstratiOn teams showed both in
creased interest and value in club
work. There were SO demonstration
teams in competition at the fair rep
resenting as counties. Livestock,
crops and dairy Judging teams were
competing for honors in the Judging
ring, while canning. sewing, baking.
dairy, poultry and crops demonstra-
lion teams were showing the results
Of their training. All the teams did ex-
cellent work"
Mr.. Scarbro stated that there was
not room to accommodate more than
half OF the 500 boys and girls who ap-
piled for admission to the club camp.
While at the fair the girls were housed
in a dormitory and the boys had a bar
racks provided for them. A private
dining hall provided food for the club
members and their leaders. A regular
daily program OF instruction and en-.
tertainment was carried out, and the
club members derived much practical
benefit from the weeks attendance at
the fair. z

the ruler of his less able subjects. The
extension Of general knowledge among
the people and autocratic abuses, have
by an evolutionary process brought
about the higher form of self govern
ment eXemplitied by our Constitution.
When compared with other and older
governments we can best judge of its
merits and prospects of perpetuity.
Since the signing of the document
which We are commemorative today
we have increased in population from
three and One-half million to more
than one hundred million, from a
fringe OF thirteen colonies along the
Atlantic coast, we have extended our
i, from the Great Lakes to the Gulf
of Mexico and to Islands in both
hemispheres. We have demonstrated
our invinClbility. our power for good
and for destruction of evil, in Peace,
and where necessary, in War.
The strength and power of our coun-
try lies not alone in her material
wealth and progressively are merely
symptoms or effects of good govern
ment-but also and more especially
lie in the fact hat the government is of
the people, and its fundamental
principles as laid down in the consti-
tuition are firmly fixed in the minds
and hearts and manifested in the lives
and conduct of those constituting the
people"
The United States today is the great
stabilizing force in an unsettled world.
We, as American citizens, are and
should be, justly proud Of these
achievements. and honor the ~ifty-five
men presided over by George Wash
ington, who for four long months be-
hind closed doors, invoking the aid Of
Almighty God, devoted their efforts
in the preparation Of that document
which is our heritage and which has
made our great National progress and
development possible.

Striking Shopmen Here
Won'tReturnto Work

The striking railroad shopmen at
Huron, Tracy, Redtield and Bookings
failed to return to work Monday in
spite Of the agreement made by the
brotherhood with the railroad com
pany. The men, however, are holding
off for the reason that the railroad
company issued instructions to rein-
state only fifty per cen of the shop
men at these points. The men say
they won't return to work Until the
railroad takes them all back. Outside
of this, the strike is officially ended
and everything is smooth and serene
once again. 1t is reported unonicially
that a number Of the cancelled trains
on the Northwestern will be reinstated

Ph:lo Hall Delivers Address
on l35th Anniversary of
Adoption of Great Doc.
ument,

The celebration Of the 135th ami
versary of the signing of the federal
constitution was observed in Brook
ings this week by appropriate pro
grams at the meetings of the Rotary
club and the Kiwanis club. At the
Rotary luncheon Tuesday noon, At
torney Philo Hall gave n of his best
addresses, his subject being the Con-
stitution, which Mr.. Hall said was pro
nounced by Gladstone to be The
greatest work ever struck off at a
given time by the brain and purpose
of man"
Such occasions as this give us the
opportunity and privilege" he went
on, "of considering the advantages
which we enjoy from the government,
democratic in principle, republican in
form established by this document,
the supreme law Of our land. We are
so accustomed to it's beneficient OPP
eratiOns and effects that We are in
clined to take them for granted as a
matter Of course, like the haalthful
in~vigorating air we breathe, the con
genial light and warmth Of the sun
which we enjoy, and the fact that we
are this moment whirling through
space at the rate of a thousand miles
an hour without jolt or friction.
ITO appreciate the advantages OF our
government. we may contrast our con
fltlnn with Pnoutn rich in natural rn-
sources, but suffering from famine,
disease, death and general disorder as
the result o. false theories Of govern
ment, a form which would take prop
erty by force from him who earned it
and give to the idler. Lincoln in a
speech to a labor organization in New
York said in substance, Let not him
who is houseless ear down the house
Of him who has one, but let him get
to work and by thrift and industry
ample he shall insure the safety Of
his WI house from violence when
built,'
The anxiety expressed by Lincoln
"IclueT a government So CTedltu
should survive or perish was justified
at the time when civil wal threatened
it's destruction-but it survived that,
and all subsequent tests to which it
has been subjected. 1t has been adopt
ed in this hemisphere and elswhere
throughout the world as the highest
and best form of civil Government
ever devised by man. 1t contains the
best elements Of the democracies of
ancient Greece, of the Roman Repub-

Incidents Of Siege
In Vicksburg Paper

One of the interesting treasures Of
Mrs. VIM. Wulf, Of Aurora, left 10 her
by her father, a Civil War Veteran, is
a copy of the Vicksburg newspaper,
printed on wall paper dated July 3,
1863, the last day Of the memorable
siege of Vicksburg conducted by Gen
erals Grant and Sherman. The siege
lasted for six weeks and the supply Of
newsprint was entirely exhausted, max
ng the use Of wall paper necessary for
the publication of the paper. The sup
ply of food was also exhausted reduc-
essity of dining on mule meat and kit
tens. During the entire six weeks Of
the siege. the city was swept by shot
and shell so that the residents made
then many were killed or wounded
when hunger drove them forth in
search of food and supplies. In spite
of these conditions there is a valiant
note Of courage in the articles Of the
newspaper which doubtless had a pow
erful effect in maintaining the morale
of the population.
Several extracts illustrating these
points follow:
I'VE are panied to record the death
of Mrs. VIM. Johnson. cousin to the
wife of General Pemberton, who was
killed by a shell while going after wa

THE Yankees are getting disguised
with war in general and General Grant
in particular. There is much discon-
tent in the invaders camp and the
Yank soldiers are deserving by scores"
The Yankee Generalissimo, sur
named Grant, we understand, boasts
that he will eat his Fourth Of July din
ner in Vicksburg. To this we reply
with the old family adage, First catch
your hare
At this point the paper abruptly
closes with still three or four Of the
last columns unset. The paper is fin
ished on the next day, July 4, in this
wise.
ION dit. Grant has caught the hare.
The Union flag floats over Vicksburg.
The next issue Of this paper will be
printed on the regular paper. No more
will the residents Of Vicksburg revel
in the delights of fricasseed mule-meat
and dessicated kitten. Three cheers for
the Union, long may she wave"
