STATISTICS SHOW LARGE NUM-
Der OF DEATHS IN CHILDREy

The Vital Statistics of South Dskota
record the death of 1928 children un-
der the age OF FIVE years IL the State
during the year 1924. This number is
considerably greater thar the tOtai
population OF one OF our average size
towns. In several i~nstances two, and
In some cases three little ores bsse
been taken from one home. Seventy
six mothers have died during the year
from causes directly due to maternity.
In Hand County there were 10
deaths reported OF children under five
years of age in 1921. Some steps
should be taken to lessen this loss OF
life. There is no II special need OF
any community. county or state which
is so vital as is this n OF maternity
and infant protection.
1t is safe to say that many, perhaps
the majority OF the infant deaths, not
only in our own state, but in other
states, could have been prevented, II,
prior to the baby's coming, each moth
er had had advice and assistance. N
had known just how to protect her
own health; just what preparations
to make for the coming OF the baby;
and how to take care Of her baby dur-
ing the first few days, weeks, months
and years OF its life.

State Has Record For
Fewest Bank Failures

Pierre. May when compared
with banking conditions in other stat
es, the South Dakota situation is n
which stands out so far as a clear re-
cord is concerned, with only one bank
closing its doors IN 1921, and three
small ones being in charge OF the
banking commission since the first of
the present year.
Under the cooperation of different
state departments, and the n of
security which the people felt In the
banks with their deposits secured, and
the knowledge that there would be no
loss to them IL the doors OF the state
bank with which they did business
should close, there were no run and
no forced closings on account OF with
drawal of deposits.
Like banks all over the country the
situation was not at the best for a
time. but the state banking depart
ment feels that this crisis Is past so
far as the state banks of South Dako-
ta are concerned, with the last call
showing an increase in deposits, and
with average reserves In the banks OF
more than 20 per cent.
The guaranty fund has been called
upon for approximately $750,000 to
meet the demands Of depositors in the
hanks which have failed SO far this
rear. and vet holds approximately
5000. 900 ready for emergencies. with
rssets of the failed banks. which are
expected in time to pay back to the
guaranty fund the amount drawn up
on to meet the demands.

BY REV. A. G. MAGICIAN

seen by a reading of the new tesla
ment.
In this text God, speaking through
Isaiah, discloses a marvellous conde-
scension. He does dwell In the "high
and holy place." but also with men
of a contritc and humble spirit. IL Is
a very difficult thing for some to
understand how God, VINO orders the
universe can take thought OF the af-
fairs of men, or even man himself.
The psalmist had had this difficulty
when he said, what is man that thou
art mindful OF him, or the son of
man that thou visiteth him." But
Jesus answers this question when he
declares Gods care for his creatures.
The sparrow's fall is noticed and the
hairs OF our head are all numbered.
Would the inventor OF a machine be
successful IL he neglected the small
parts? The greatness of God Is e1eva-
ted by his care OF small things. Mach
is said by Jesus and the apostles about
the indwelling OF Christ. Christ In
you the hope OF glory writes the
apostle Paul. Know ye not that We
are the temple OF God" and we are
Goods building" and that other, we
are the temple OF the living God; as
God hath said: I will dwell In them"
Now all this includes a preparation.
The temple into which Christ comes
Ito take up his abode must be a clean
temple. Jesus will not,-cannot, come
into the unclean heart and life. Come
out from among them and be We sepa-
rate and touch not the unclean
thing and I will receive you"
God has a purpose in coming TO
dwell IN the lives Of men. Through
that medium he is to express himself
In the world. He comes into the
humble temple OF man and glorifies II.
His life Is not the same. A new era
has set In for that soul,
