Perfect Malt, Perfect Beer !Rie Exclusive Pabst Eight-Day Method a Guarantee of Age, Purity and Strength. Malt is well said to be "the soul of beer." I is the life- the vitality, the substance of the beer, and perfect beer is possible only with perfect malt.

The ex clusive Pabst eight-day method in sures more invigorating extractives than are found in any other malt. This, coupled with 60 years of practical brewing experience, makes Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer unequalled as a nourish ing tonic and a delicious beverage. Next in importance to eight-day malt is cleanliness, and might very well say just as important, for not only is cleanness desirable, but neces sary in brewing the best beer. And in this again Pabst excels, not only is the mammoth Pabst Brewery a model of neatness in every department, but the beer from mash tub to keg or bottle is never touched by human hands. I passes through pasteurized tubes and pipes into hermetically sealed sterilized tanks, and everv known safeguard is established to pre vent any possible contamination The Ingredients of Pabst Beer are the purest and best money can buy, and it Is given to the public only when science and the test of time show it to be per fect in age. purity and strengthth best beer brewed MAX SIMON, Cor. 16th Av.

ONE FEE FOR STUDENTS Physical Director of South Dakota Uni versity Has Plan for Relief. VERMILLION, S. D.A. R. Whittemore, phy sical director at the university, has submitted new plans for financing the various student activ ities the coming year, and If they qan be worked out the financial stringencies which have heretofore handicapped every manager will be relieved The plan is to form a student asso ciation under faculty supervision, the member ship fee each year to be $5 This would entitle the membr to free admission to all athletic events, debates, lectures, concerts, etc besides a subscription to the college paper. What it is proposed to give for $5 under present conditions costs $10, and those students who now are able to take in onlj half of the attractions will then be able to attend everything without an outlay of more money than they now spend. There is bat little question of the success of the scheme if the students will ohly take hold of the matter with the proper spirit, and the plan will prove an economical one for the Indi vidual. In this way if nine-tenths of the stu dents join the association about $2,000 will bet received and distiibuted for debates, concerts, athletics and other student activities which re quire money. The three athletic teams could arrange better schedules, the Volante could afford to give subscriptions on a 90 cent basis, about $900 could be invested in a lecture course and the debateis would have about $200, and, after all expenses for the year were paid, the asso ciation would still have a snug sum in the treasury instead of the usual deficit. I'ebruary was a banner month in the way of tax collections in the county treasurer's office, the total amount received exceeding $80,000 This is by far the largest sum ever taken in by the county treasurer in one month in Clay county, and the taxes are so higher this yeai than usual. It *s evident that the delinquent tax list this fall will be small. The majority of taxpayers take advantage of the opportunity to make two payments, hence the receipts for February repre sent only half of what the receipts would have been had it been necessary to pay all at once.
