PIONEER-REVIEW PAYS FINE
TRIBUTE TO PROF. GREEN

The students and patrons Of the
local schools will be D leased TO reaC
what the Philip paper has to say
about the kadova superintendent
elect.
Prof. f. c. Green who for the
past year has been principal OF
the Philip High School, this week
entered into a contract to take
the SUPPLEMENTARY OF the Kado-
ka schools for next year. While
he was offered an increase in sal
AIRY to remain with the Philip
schools he felt that a position as
the head Of a school would be
preferable.
Prof. Green. whose work here
during the past year has been
highly satisfactory, has many good
friends who hoped that he would
decide to stay in our city. He has
shown himself to he thoroughly
competent as an instructor, as an
athletic coach. and has had the
confidence and respect Of the stu
dents at all times.
The people of Philip regret that
he has decided to leave our city,
but feel sure that he will prove
as successful in his new position
as he has here"

Probably not many people IN this

none other than the Lyman County
Herald. The Sedgwick bank of
Presho held a chattel MORTGAGE
against the Herald plant, and when
the bank went down a counle of
months ago it took the Herald
down with it. The publisher of the
neWspHner. bcirC~ unable to meet
past due notes held by the bank
had TO submit to mortgage fore

State bankinp Department took

JACKSON COUNTY INSTALLS
HIGHWAY SAFETY DEVISES

A new type of highway safety
device which works on the princi
pal of the aerial lite net in pre-
venting automobiles from plung
in over curves embankments ano
bridgesides will be installed on two
danger nointS on roads west OF
Kadoka, in Jackson county, shortly
The device. known as "Hi-Way
j Guard" will be used in an attempt
to eliminate all danger of a rep.
etition of accidents that caused one
death and damage to at least four
cars. 1t consists of a white ribbon
two feet wide of linked" or fab.
ricated" heavv iron or steel wire,
strong enough. according to tests,
to stop an average sized car going
80 miles an hour. At the same
time, the guard is so fabricated
that it stops a plunging machine
by the elasticity and recoil of it's
fabric without destructive impact,
thus emulating the life net idea.
Two hundred feet of the guard
will be installed at the approach
of Sears Greek bridge, on the town.
ship road seven miles west of Ka-
doka where Ted Gilchrist was kill
ed when his automobile went off
the bridge in October, 1922. The
other 200 feet will be placed at

where three automobiles are known
to have gone over an embankment
onto the railroad tracks below.

which will bc made as soon as the
material is received from the West

to replace wooden rails, cables and
