All Modern Comforts
For Pitchers At
Phillies Park

Visitors to the Phillies' park
a day or so ago saw a strange
sight in the outfield. Over the
Bull Pen," where relief pitch
ers warm up, there was stretch
ed an awning. 1t was the work
of John Loughney, trainer Of
the National League team in
that city. =
"a pitcher waiting to go into
the box" says Loughney, "has
that sun glazing into his eyes
for two, three, four innings,
maybe more. When he gets in
there that eyestrain often inter-
feres with getting the bali over
the plate. Hence the awning"
ALI that is needed now is the
Nubian slave and the PALM
leaf fan gently swaying up and
down.

Seek Referendum On Laws
Passed By Legislature

Aberdeen News Local people have
been appealed to by G. w. Best,
chairman of the executive committee
of three of the Farmer-Labor move
ment conference for political action,
asking their help to circulate petit
tons for a referendum upon three
laws passed by the recent legislature.
This conference at Huron March IL
resoluted the machine" out of pow
er and wants to circulate three petit
tons which are explained by Mr..
Best's communication as follows:
"This petition refers the law pass
ed by the last republican legislature,
changing the date for the Primary
election from the fourth Tuesday in
March to the fourth Tuesday in May
to a vote of the people before going
into effect.
eff this law goes into effect il will
put the primary election campaign
into the busy seeding season of the
year, when the farmers have no time
to devote to the same, instead of in
the winter season. About so per cent
of our voters are farmers. 1t is very
evident the politicians wish to elm
mate the farmer from the primary
campaign as far as possible as a poll
tical trick.
. This petition refers to a vote OF
the people the law passed by the re-
cent Republican legislature repeating
the non-political judicial election law
and placing the election of judges
back again under party politics. and
releasing the judges from the judicial
party recall as a trick to destroy legal
responsibility in party organization
Judges are human and should be I'M
der human law the same as other Of
ficials.
This petition refers. to a vote OF
the people. the law passed by the last
Republican Legislature detachine
Todd County (unorganized) from Ly-
man County and attaching 1t to Tripr
County for judicial purposes, before
going into effect.
This change is being made against
the protest of the old substantial
white settlers of Todd county and
in face of certain notorious criminal
actions now in charge of Lyman coun-
ty authorities against some of the
state appointees of Todd County
Tripp County as now managed has
an aggregate Indebtedness OF about
one million dollars"

by REV. T. J. SIMONS

to sacrifice them. Just to put a bus
mess deal through, many a one has
forfeited a choice and trusting friend.
Little greater grief can come to one
than to lossse a good and honest
friend. To discover that one has lost
a friend by ones own fault should
smite the conscience nightly. One of
the great and consuming detectives OF
life should be to make friends. And
another of them Is to hold them. The
way to make a friend is to do another
good.
There is nothing more commonly
confused than reputation and char
acter. Some pretend not to care for
their good names. There may be one
here and there who is actually callous
to the well thinking of others. But
the most people are very solicitous
about what they are thought about. IL
is well that this should be SO. But 1t
is of more importance to be careful to
have a character that merits a good
name. You know n of the nastiest
words in the language is hypocrit, and
IL should not be used more often than
necessary. The character that does not
square up to the reputation or the pro-
fession Is the cause of the use of the
word. Have a grief for the loss of a
reputation to be sure. Have a great
err grief for the lack Of a noble char
acter.
But I o speak on the positive side OF
the matter; 1t is a blessed thing to be
! brought in consciousness of offence
against ones own welfare to a grief of
conscience. For then there is a hope
of amending ones ways and the conse-
quent blessing of that or that may flow
from that.
The same thing is true in reference
to the offence against the rights of an
other person, whether he be friend or
foe. Injustice to anyone should prick
the conscience. If it does so, turn a.
bout and make amends. The payment
of any debt brings a satisfaction that
can be secured in no other way
But of course the most poignian
sting of conscience comes from doing
dispite TO the Prince of Life. That is
when one comes to realize that one
has been false to Him now great is
the enormity of the sin against him.
Real sorrow Is a blessing In disguise.
Paul the Apostle says "Godly sorrow
worketh repentance unto life. For
one who is a sinner, and who rs not!
can be blessed only I'm repentance.
Repentance is turning to God with
faith and desire after new o~bediance,
This Is the only way to beauty and
usefulness and therefore ~blessedness
The butterfly that will soon be fitting
from flower to flower can come only
rom the cuccoon, the symbol OF con
scientiousness. The luscious fruit on
the tree Is the result Of the trees en-.
during the punishment OF the rigors O
the merciless winter. The blessed one
is he who welcomes In humility tho
knowledge of his sins and with wodnd'
ed conscience turns to his righteous
and holy God for forgiveness and tn
fullness OF his Illuminating and en-
] riching spirit.

THE BLESSING OF A
STRICKEN CONSCIENCE

Man is born to mourn" says the
poet. There are other purposes of his
existance and whether that is even one
OF the purposes of his birth need not
be discussed--here, since the thought
uppermOst in u minds is that il Is
the lot of all to mourn. If some es-
cape, 1t is a sign that they are not as
human as they should be.
1t would be futile to try to enum-
crate the several causes of sorrow, but
some of them can and should be men
toned here. But they are not all the
result OF a striker conscience. Nay
more, few of the sorrows of man
kind are out of the conscience at all.
The most of them come from the lack
of conscience. Still there are many
legitimate griefs that have no COM
junction of conscience connected with
them. There are so many sorrows that
it is a wonder that people do not be-
come more callous to them than they
do. But We have to recognize that few
sorrows touch us but the ones close to
us. Well IL is to a degree, for no one
is able to endure the sorrows of the
world.
OF the many unnecessary sorrows
the fault of their existence lies with
the individual. Wounded affections
probably bring as much grief as any
of them. And wounded affections speak
of self love. or course that means to
a large degree pride. The pride that
is objectionable and the expression Of
selfishness Is the cause of the count
less downfalls that multiply the grief
of the world.
Then there is the grief that is caused
by the loss of possessions. The grief
of the loss Is in that too much i'm
portance is attached to the ownership.
The scripture says that "the love of
money In a root of all kinds of evil"
The loss of position IN society is the
frequent cause of the grief Of the Bit
ter and rebelious tears that show the
rage OF the one afflicted. Too many
persons prize position above the vir
tue that makes one worthy of the adj
vancement of and by their friends. 1t
is more important to have worth than
to have a place in the public eye or
in the public homage.
And here Is a grief that should sure
ly be a grief. Health Is to be priced
and that greatly. But no one should
prize 1t above everything. Is not the
life more than the body. There Is nc
doubt about it. Much of the Ill health
Of the present generation is caused by
going against the laws of God. Toe
much unholy ambition is the Of
the iii health of many. A care. for thu
warnings of nature would preserb'
the health OF many an n whose
health Is ~nervously broken down. Th'
message to the present generation
should be: Have a conscience In thu
matter. A clear conscience In tn
matter would save many a day OF goo'
health.
Are friends priced? They should be
