KadOka Lad Wins
Prize At Masquerade

iankton Press and Dakotan:
The Lady Maccabees held their
annual children's masquerade ball
last night most successfully at
Odd Fellow Hall, with very large
tendance. After the grand mar
n and unmasking, the floor was
thrown open to adults and every
body danced until the new day was
ushered in. The Mikota orchestra
furnished music for the occasion.
The spacious floor was crowded
with boot-blacks, gypsies, Mexicans
tiny tots in varied costume who
looked as if they had lost their
nurses. Uncle Sam was there and
Washington, Red Ridinghoods,
clowns, farmers, Indians, Two lit

The Judges were Mrs. A. A. Lillcy,

good plays is doing a real service
to many communities, as it gives
them their only opportunity to
become acquainted with the really

Bill introduced To
Reimburse Victim OF
Penitentiary Bandits

Murdo Coyote:
States Attorney M. L. Parish, of
Murdo, stands in fair way to
receive the consideration of the
state of South Dakota in a fnan-
cial way for the injuries he receiv-
ed last August when he was SO
nearly killed by the four Sioux
Falls convicts who shot Mr.. Parish
Sheriff Jay Babcock and ]. A.
Robertson in a gun battle over
near Stamford, when the escaped
convicts got the drop on the offic-
ers and used their opportunity to
get them out Of the way so they
could make good their attempted
escape. Pierre reports state that
bill was introduced in the house
last Monday by Hon. c. T. Bates,
representative from this district,
to appropriate the sum Of $l,195.59
to reimburse Mr.. Parish. States
Attorney Parish's life hung in the
balance for weeks and while he
has practically recovered from his
terrible experience he lost weeks
and weeks of time from his busi-
ness and the state should consider
what it means to have such men
working for them. Mr.. Parish is
again taking care Of the states
attorney work in Jones county and
is trying his best to give the work
his best attention. All west-river
people, especially in this immedi-
ate community, will be gratified
and pleased if the legislature al
lows the bill to pass without a
dissenting vote in either branch.

Work TOBe Resumed
On Overhead HiWay
Bridge Near 0kat0n

Murdo Coyote:
A letter received in Murdo yes
terday from a member of the state
highway commission, Hon. c. N
Leedom, of Pierre, states that the
work on the over head highway
crossing between Murdo and Okla
ton will be resumed, according tC
information he had received from
the Milwaukee railroad officials
Most Of our readers are fairly wei
informed upon this particular eros
sing as we referred to it at various
times during the past year when
much endeavor has been put forth
to have it remedied.
In Mr. LeedOm's letter he says,
AT last, after several months OF
waiting, am indeed glad to in.
form you that the State Highway
commission has been advised b.,
the Milwaukee railroad people tha'
they will Immediately resume work
on the overhead railroad crossing
between your town and Okaton.
You are fully aware that all mat
erial for the crossing is on the
ground.
Il want to asure you that had it
not been for the everlasting co
operation Of Honorable Chauncey
Bates, our representative from our
district, ] am satisfied that VIC
would still have been in the all
with this project. Chauncey has
continually been after the railroad
officials urging this improvement
and tell you !, as a highway com
missioner, certainly appreciate his
efforts in this matter very, very
much. 1t certainly is a pleasure to
we fellows Of the highway board
to have the assistance of a man
who stands as we'll as Mr.. Bates
does with the people of the state
to assist them in securing a need.
ed Improvement in any community.
So far, SO good, Mr.. Leedom in
his letter is right in his appraisal
of the matter. The people and
towns along the Custer Battle
field highway ar not going to for
get Mr. Bates and his efforts in
securing the overhead bridge west
of Murdo and neither are they go.
ing to forget some of the other
men who have had hand in get
ting the work started and finally
in getting it resumed after the
material was on the ground and
the work was tagging, including
Mr.. Leedom, for instance, and the
county commissioners Of Jones
county, Messrs. l.. ID. Lyman,
Harrie Norris and Ole Vik, and
Supt. 5. o. Swift. All of these
men have had something to do
with it and we wish to see them
receive their dues.

as distinct as oif a complete cast
Of players, instead of one artist,
were giving the Interpretation.
Certain critics who have heard
the most famous lyceum monolo-
gists, have ventured the strong as
sertion that Miss Lenhart excels
her contemporaries in the matter
IF ditfercntiating her characters.
She has the dignity necessary for
the heaviest parts. and at the same
time is surprisingly competent in
Stimulating lighter characters. Il;

is possible for her to draw such
marked distinction between seven
or eight members of cast that an
audience could easily follow the
entire play, even tho seated in
absolute darkness, and without a
line of explanation.
Since her fourteenth year Miss
Lenhart has been doing dramatic
work not commonplace drama
tics, but dramatics of a type stam~
ping her as unique in her profes-
sion She devoted several seasons
to directing and taking leads in
plays in her home city of Pitts
burg. At the same time she was
equipping herself thru private
study, and training at the King
School of Dramatic Art. Her
first work for the Repath Bureau
was done in 1920 when she appear
ed on courses which had booked
such notables as Katherine Ridge
way and Strickland Gillian. Until
the present time her lyceum work
has been confined largely to the
territory served by Pittsburg, CO.
lumbus and Chicago Offices of the
Redpath Bureau, but this season
is filling nearly twenty weeks for
the Cedar Rapids Redpath office
The sage who remarked that a
prophet is not without honor save
IN his own country" erred in the
case of Selma Lenhart. In sub
stantiation herewith are submitted
comments from newspaper critics
in Miss Lenhart's home city of
Pittsburg:

r. f. Thomas, Bennan, S D.; Mrs.
F. S. Fry, DENLY, S. D.; Joe W..

address while the Masonic Frater-
nifty Of which the deceased was q
member, conducted the services at
the Gordon cemetery where inter-
ment was made.
Mr.. z. T. Leedom OF Sioux City,
Iowa. youngest brother Of the
deceased. arrived to attend the
