The Sioux City Journal Of last Fri
day carried practically the same story
under Murdo date line. So you see.
everyone is beginning to recognize the
need of railroad in this county, and
the newspapers are glad to get hold OF
this news and give it wider publicity.
Maybe some day the railroad builders
will also see the great need of rail
road out here in Mellette county, too.
and then perhaps we will realize our
dream.

Majority Recommendation.

The majority report. offered by Chairman ?, F. King of the school accommodations committee. was as follows;
 "Your committee has considered again the above matter which was referred back to them at the last reg ular meeting of the School Board. We have been in touch with MT. Cor bach. representing the Lincoln Realty Company, owner of one of the tracts which was under consideration, and have received from him a new price of s22, 100000 in place Of the former offer Of s95,000.o0, making a cut in the price of sS,00o.o0.
 This tract consists of d piece of land 550'x600', containing approxi- mately 4S acres. It will cost us s4,5S30o per acre.
 "The other tract. known as the Smith and D'Angeloproperty is 695 on the cast line, 4f5' on the south, 693' on the west and 4i2k' on the north. making practically square piece Of about 2-3 acres, which, at a price Of sl7 ,oo0.oo. will cost us about s2.552.0O per acre.

Kilbourne, Halloran and Pratt Those opposing were: Messrs. SaSe, Gaffney and King, and Mrs. Fife NJ. Kimball. The vote was a tie and the resolution failed of pass age. Action was then taken on the majority report and it, too, failed Of passage.
 |. Before the vote was taken, MT King asked Mir. Eilbourne if he in- tended to vote. He called attention to a statement attributed to MT. Xiii bourne that he would not be eligible to vote because of his connection with Mir. Gorbach. Mir. Kilbourne said he could see no valid reason why he should not exercise his privilege, to which Mir. King replied:,
 If you think it's all right, go ahead I won't object"
 Will Censor Football Schedule.

FLESH THAT DOES
NOT DIE

When the French Academy of
Medicine heard in 1912 that DR..
Alexis Carrel had kept an animal
heart, isolated from the body, alive
and beating for several months
many of the members were skepti-
cal. They refused to believe the
report until it was verified by
demonstration under. the eyes of a
committee.
The proof of DR.. Carols achieve
ment vas Forthcoming. 1t has ex
listed for eleven years in the form
of a part of a chickens heart. with
the connective tissue, which lives,
reproduces continuously and appar-
emily without diminution of vitality
so long as nourished. The tissue
has subsisted beyond the years OF
life natural to a fowl such as that
from which the heart was taken.
Left in that fowl and kept however
carefully the heart would have
grown old and gone the way of all
other flesh. Instead of which its
artiticially preserved portion lives
on unimpaired.
II our physical part possesses po-
tential immortality, IL its compon-
ent flesh can be kept slivo indefi-
nitely and without \ central life
spark, how must We alter or enlarge
our views Of that other immortality,
of the soul7
The philosophers will no doubt
wrestle with that point. Mean
while, it will interest everyday
folk that the prospect OF lengthen-
ing life as well as Of protecting it
against disease grows brighter. The
Carrel experiment suggests that in
stead of inheritins a body endowed
with the necessity of dying at the
end of its life term we decline only
through the impairment Of tissues
capable Of living on so long as no
harm from outside assails them.

NO PROFITEERING IN
WAR

Tho country has learned many
lessons during the past few years.
One lesson is that il we have
another war there shall be no prof
iteering.
Tho extent Of profiteerins was
not fully known until after the
world war ended. But every
year demonstrates that = great
many men, who have never been
willing to admit It, made money out
Of the war. The country In nov
convinced that if there In another
war every resource. including
money, must be drafted. No man
will be permitted to mako great
amounts Of money while others arc
fighting. The government will ex.
amino his wealth, and take a part
of it, or take It all IL necessary for
the use Of the nation.
Speaking at Arlington Cemetery
on Memorial Day, President Hard
ing said: eve will not alone call
to service the youth Of the land
but We will draft every resource,
every activity, all Of wealth and
make common cause OF the nations
preservation" This Is sane set
Element.
Money and property are freely
taken by the government now to
pay the expenses Of the war, but
money and property should have
been taken at the time when they
wers first needed. Some news.
papers declaring that they ad.
vocatsd this principle during the
war.

BIRTH
RATES =

Aside from the marked drop in
the birth rate for the twenty-four
states mentioned drop from
24.4 per thousand for the year 1921
to 22.7 for 1922-the provisional
birth figures for the last calendar
year, just issued by the census bu-
reau, III interesting because of the
variation among the states.
The highest birth rate OF the
states listed is that of North Caro-
lima, with 3O.2 a thousand for 1922.
The number of births in the month
of December 1922 was slightly
greater in North Carolina, with a
population of 1883, 900, than the
number in New Jersey, where g.
155,000 persons live. 1t was al
most as great as in Michigan, which
has a population of 3,66s, 900, rath-
er more than twice North Carolina,
The infant mortality rate is not
given, but the general death rate
in North Carolina for ten years was
lower than New jerseys, barely
higher than Michigan's.
North Carolina like most other
southern states, has received hardly
any late immigration from abroad.
Emigration to other states has not
been great, excepting that in the
last year many negroes have left to
work in the north. If North Caro-

P~ErRoCRAD,S L

The officials of soviet Russia
took a census Of unemployment in
Petrograd during the month Of
April. It was discovered that 4
hundred thousand men in that city
were In distress through lack of
work. As n result of this census
relief measures have been ordered.
Soviet authorities have placed the
unemployed into three groups for
the purpose of administering relief.
In one group r tho men who
moved to Petrograd from other
parts Of Russia; these men and
their families win be sent back to
their old homes. In the second
group are ovners Of property in
Petrograd; their relief consists of
tax exemption. The third group
viii receive \ subsidy from the gov
eminent.
Apparently the offering Of en-
ployment as a cure for u~nemploy-
ment received no attention. Yet
that is the only relief measure that
does any real or lasting good. A
wealthy private citizen, or = group
.of wealthy private citizens, could
give employment to n hundred
Thousand residents Of Petrograd to
tthe advantage Of all concerned and
,some OF the men from the ranks of
the hundred thousand would event
ually be wealthy and offer profit
able employment to others. But
soviet Russia is opposed to private
property; hence thousands Of un-
iemployed men who really want to
work must be paid a subsidy in
their idleness or be sent to some
other part Of the country to live OF
die. Communism is indeed a
strange enterprise.
