CLARK STEELE Is SERIOUSLY
INJURED

While assisting his son. Lawren-
CO, who is driving truck for
Wachabaueh County. in loading
bridge piling in the local railroad
Yards, Clark Steele was caught un-
der heavy beam Weighing more
than 1000 pounds. The men had
loaded one end of the beam and
as they were trying to get the 9TH
er end on the truck, Mr.. Steele
was having the entire trunk o.
the tree on his back. The other
end slid off the truck and bore
him to the ground with great
force. His son. Lawrence was the
only one near and with great diff
ficulty extricated his father. He
was carried home on a stretcher,
suffering intensely. 1t was at first
cared that serious internal injury
had been done. but though Mr..
Steele is very sick and weak, moth
ing untoward has appeared to date.
Mr.. Steele's many friends rae sor-
ry. to learn of his accident and
wish him a speedy recovery.

Started grading
Towards BelVidere

AS was noted in previous Press
issues the County Commissioners
accepted the proposal of the state
to have Jackson County take up
the grading and blade work on the
translate highway forty. commonly
known as the Custer Battlefield
Hiway. and which has recently al
so acquired the name Of The Rain
bow Trail.
For several weeks past the coun-
tv garage has been humming with
feverish endeavor to get the mon
ster Emerson as we'll as the big
caterpillar tractor in shape for
the hard work ahead Of them.
Monday morning everything
was ready and a start was made
on the first turn north on the
straight way past the cemetery.
The caterpillar is drawing a giant
GRADER, as we'll as planer. The
Big Four Emerson has just a large
grader to atke care of.
As soon as this stretch has been
Ruckmasterized the Highway Com
missioner will take on another
stretch and so move closer and
closer towards Belvidere his ulti-
mate goal.
The Press would like to see Mr..
Buckmaster and his able crews
turned loose on the Interior-Cona-
ia stretch, which is now and has
been all summer an abominatiOn
in the sight Of God and man and
a disgrace OF the state of South

struck up few lively airs and re-
ceived rousing applause.
Flagg p. CARLYLE then mounted
the stump and stated in we'll chos-
en- terms the mission of the boost

neighbOrs in Washabaugh County.
His talk was well received. He
plainly made hit with the crowd.
Some three hundred Indians in the
crowd of listeners loosened up
with few war-whoops and then
cheerfully went thru all the con
tortions and twists of an Omaha
war dance for the benefit Of the
callers.
Dinner was now served and in
dividual calls were made as well
as many old friendships renewed.
The band struck up another tune
and the caravan formed in line
once more and headed for Tut

Schools To Open
Next Monday

Mother is getting Johnnie anc
Mary ready for school this week
because next Monday morning the
bell will call them to assemble fol-
another years work.
While mother is doing this it is
time to stop and reflect for a min
ute for Mother and Dad too.
School is the extention of the
home. We're mother and dad able
and had the time they would keep
the youngsters right at home and
teach them what they ought to
know to fit them for better citi-
zens. better men and women to
meet the world and its conditions
as they are. But because they
have not the time nor perhaps the
preparation schools have been built
extentions of the home, if you
please, and here men and women
trained are empcoyed to
be substitutes for the parents.
If the school is an extention of
the home, it behooves every parent
to be interested in the moulding
Of the character of his child. He
ought to visit the child at work In
this extention home to advise
and encourage him in his school
work. The parents ought to be on
very intimate terms with the teach
er. his substitute, inform the
teacher TO the good and bad points
of the child and also learn from
the teacher where he can be most
helpful in the best advancement
of the child. Every parent ought
to visit the classroom of his child
no less than once a month. 1t is
not necessary that the parent be
as we'll trained as the teacher.
Good common sense is all that Is
needed and Kadokans have it in
we believe. Cali on
the teacher and invite him or her
to your home and get acquaint-
ed.You will be highly pleased with
the result.
Our school system represents
in which students, par
ents and teachers are the supports.
If parents and teachers work in
results for the best can
be obtained. Now is the time to
make that resolve to cooperate
with the teacher. Cooperation Is
the secret of strength. Let US all
pull together for bigger and bet
ter schools in kadoka.

ANTHRAX NOW WELL IN HAND

N p. Nielsen returned last Fri
day from a trip across White River
nd in Washabaugh County where
he put life insurance in the form
of anthrax serum on the lives Of
1t9l hovineS. Of these. 1850 are
the property Of our village presi-
dent. Mr.. Craven who owns a spa
ciouS ranch south of Wcta. Mr..
Nielsen reports that the dangerous
operation of injecting serum int"
the range cattle was accomplished
without loss of life. either humar,
on animal. When asked who gave
him the black eye which decOrates
his physiognomy he smiled and
said it was simply too close a con-
nection with the horn Of a power
full steer. 1t might easily have
been far worse.
A week ago Tom Hogan reported
the loss of two fine cows and it
was at once feared that the deaths
were due TO anthrax. Local mer
carefully examined the carcasse.
and were of the opinion that it
must be some other cause. Blood
was sent to competent veterinarian
laboratories and report received
since then tells of no trace of an
thrax. All symptoms point to a
case of poisoning fromfeeds eaten
by the cows.
