the sanitation of the schools with
regard to water supply, the common
drinking cup, and the like. And it is
most gratifying that the school boards
and the teachers are cooperating, and
instead as formerly in some cases, be-
ing adverse to having their water
supply's quality questioned, are now
sending samples for laboratory cX-
animation. Teachers are now devot-
ing their Saturdays to bringing pupils
to the city for eye examinations, or
are making home calls to inform par

Dakota indians Ask
Return of Black Hills

Pierre, S. D., Oct. 24.-Chiefs of the
various bands of Dakota Sioux In
dams, reservation superintendent, In
dian and white officials of the church
and representatives of the federal gov
ernment met in Pierre today at the
request of Charles HI. Burke, u. S.
commissioner of Indian Affairs. The
conference is to take up a number of
questions relating to the welfare of
the Indians and adjustment of their
claims.
Among the more important subjects
to be discussed is the claim of the In
dams for return to them of the whole
area of the Black Hills. The red men
contend that chiefs of the tribes con-
cerned ceded the Black Hills to the
U. s. without the consent of the re-
quired number of male members of the
tribes. Under the tribal law, cession
or sale of land called for a ballot in
which three-fourths of the adult males
must signify the will to have any
change made.
The Paha Sapa BLACK Hills) were
long held sacred by the Indians and
a number of the older members of the
Dakota nation still cling to the old
ways and beliefs. Consequently there
are representatives of nearly every
band on the Standing Rock, Pine
Ridge, Rosebud, Yankton, Lower Brule
and Crow Creek reservations present
at the pow-wow. They will try to
agree upon attorneys to represent
them in the trial Of their claims in
federal courts.

SMITH AND ANDERSON FOR
SUPREME COURT JUDGES

"If there are any two men in the
state of South Dakota that deserve
reelection 1t is Supreme Court Judges
Frank Anderson of Webster and Judge
Ellison G. Smith OF Yankton. Two OF
the best judges South Dakota ever
had, men of experience, men OF mark
ed ability, these two judges certainly
deserve reelection. AS a matter or
fact the State of South Dakota Is
fortunate i'm securing such men to sit
on the Supreme Bench, for either one
of them could make several times as
much money every year in private
practice. Honest, straight forward,
fair minded, possessing a knowledge
of law that has placed them at the
head of their profession, fearless in
the execution of their official duties
these two men are well worthy of the
united support Of the voters OF the
state in their aspirations for re-eiec-
ton, and they should be given the
largest majority ever accorded a Judge
at election time. Their opponents
have nothing coming from the voters.
They are not men of. proven ability
as are Judges Anderson and Smith.
They are not entitled to recognition
at this time. When you get a good
Judge, an honest capable man, keep
him where he is. And that Is just
exactly what the voters are going to
do in regard to Judges Anderson and
Smith. Their records are such that
we point to them with pride. They
have given the state good, efficient
service. They are willing TO continue
this service. Let's give them the
chance.'-Bob Schaber in the Hudson

This distorted idea of religion has

This would be true II we were con-

PRAIRIE FIRES
BURN BUILDINGS
Large Amount OF Damage BY Fire i'm
Hyde County

Two prairie fires starting Tuesday
morning caused considerable damage
in Hand and Hyde counties. The FIRE
in Hyde county was the most disastr-
Gus and caused considerable alarm In
Miller when the smoke rolled over
this city at the noon hour. This fire
started at the Volek farm, northwest
OF Highmore and is said to have been
caused by a threshing rig. The fire
is reported to have destroyed a barn
on this barn, all the farm buildings
on the Havig farm except the ma
chine shed, and all the buildings on
the Sunding farm except a granery.
Also three school houses are reported
to have been destroyed. Many stocks
OF hay and considerable stacked grain
was also consumed in the path of the
flames. The loss on the Havig farm,
which was exceptionally well improv-
ed is reported at SIS, 900.
The fire was driven by a high north
west wind, but its progress was some
what checked by the head fire being
broken up by orn fields, sloughs and
roads. The burnt area covered a
stretch approximately IL miles long,
IN duout - illlc5 "iuS at Tic utdu.
Residents of westside Hand were very
much alarmed but a shift of the wind
turned the fire more to the south and
1t was checked a mile west Of the line.
This fire is without a doubt one of
the most disastrous in Hyde county's
history.
North Hand Fire
The fire in North Hand county start
ed in Fairview Twp. and burned a
strip about five miles long and two
miles wide, and is said to have been
started by a cigarette. A large
amount of hay and pasture was des-
troyed. 1t is reported that consider
able damage was done at the Lieske
farm and also at the Strut farm.
A number OF people from Miller re-
sponded to calls for help at both fires.

Black And Yellow Trail
Meeting at Huron Nov. 9

A meeting of the South Dakota Sec
ton of the Black and Yellow Trail
will be held in Huron on Thursday,
November 0, at 10 A. NJ, In the COM
mercial rooms.
This is the annual state meeting and
all trail matters pertaining to South
Dakota will be on the program for dis
cussion. At the national meeting held
in Buffalo, Wyo., last July, plans were
discussed to enlarge the activities of
the trail. Action was taken instruct
ing the Board Of Directors to employ
a full-time manager. This speaks wei
for the growth of our trail and assures
that the possibilities of the trail will
be pushed to the utmost.
South Dakota will do her part in
this enlarged program. We have the
roads and r getting more of them
each year. Three of the biggest at
fractions of tn trail are In South Da-
kota-the Buffalo herd, the Rad Lands.
and the Black Hills. If we get our
share of the tourist business we must
invite them to stop with us. by having
the best roads, marks, and service that
they can find on our trail or any trail.
South Dakota Is the daddy of the B.
and Y. Let's father the movement for
the enlarged plan.
Every town in the state should be
represented by a large delegation.
Commercial Clubs, Kiwanis and Ro-
tary Clubs, county commissioners, and
mayors are all especially invited to
send delegates. The county chairman
should get his representatives together
with the above and see 20 it that a
delegation attends.
Let's Go, South Dakota.
Huron, Thursday, November 8.
It's a good plan to drive. Then
you'll know first hand what the trail
needs.

RELIGION IN RECONSTRUCTION
CONTINUED from October 5th)

Shall we then say, az so many have
said, that religion is purely an affair
of the intellect. Does IL mean that
emotion must be suppressed and that
piety must lost all warmth, all joyous
ness, all delight in the doing Of good?
Such, we know, has been the ideal OF
some philosophers in every age. But
such also has been the travesty OF
religion held forth by it's enemies to
make II a hateful thing For they I'M
derstand that the heart of man will
turn away, in bitterness, from a the
DRY of life that Identifies goodness
with GOODNESS, hardness and gloom.
They know, moreover, that the surest
way to eliminate God from the world
is not the way of Agnosticism but OF
Misrepresentation whereby God is
made to appear as a Power without
mercy, as a Being in whose suprem-
acy there is no place for love.
The genuine concept OF religion
avoids these extremes. 1t is neither
an affair of emotion alone, nor OF in
tellect alone, but OF these two combin-
| ed and, with these, OF all our human
capacities. 1t permeates them all.
giving to each Its rightful share OF
activity. 1t preserves and quickens
them ell raising each with the others
tn a higher plane. Its vitalizing eie-
ment-the basis of its harmony-is
the principle of proportion. Let this
prevail; let sense and imagination
emotion and desire, intellect and VIII
~cpoperate-and always in due proper
tion-in rendering to God h things
ttat are God's,-then you will havt
religion in spirit and in truth.
Now the faculties of man are no'
self-suficient. They cannot clos'
themselves In, and find satisfaction
' In mutual exercise. They must needs
nave objects beyond themselyes-no
merely things to be perceived ant
understood, but things to be desired
aims to be realized, ideals to be fui
filed. OF necessity we must strive
and the end OF our striving determine
