WATERBURY & FIRST STATE BANK The Oldest Bank in Dewey County. CAPITAL $10,000 Some people have an idea that in of" der to have a bank account, they must have a large sum to deposit that the bank doesn't care to be bothered by small accounts. This, however, is a mistaken idea, as we welcome all new accounts, and the same courtesy and service is accorded the small depositor as those in more fortunate cir cumstances. It is our object and wish to serve the public in financial matters in a manner that shall be satisfactory to all. Your valuables will be secure if kept in our Safety Deposit Boxes, which are en closed within our fire proof vault. ED. L. MILLIGAN, Pres. JOHN De Y. SMITH, Vice Pres. L. H. LANG EN, Cashier. •.I"" v t. V Mull I. IJ1.H •. "V 1 *1 1 5 WAGON ROAD IS BEING BUILT ACROSS LAKE COUNTY AND INDIVIDUALS CO-OPERATE SO THAT SECTION LINE WILL tt MADE PASSABLE. At last work has actually started on a road across the lake. It was originally thought that it would be nice to have the road cross due north from Main street, but later on it was practically decided to place it two blocks to the west of Main street, where the lake is about the narrowest and where there is somewhat of a natural fill at either side. In view of the fact however, that this would necessi tate the purchasing of private land on the north side and the putting in of another crossing over the railroad tracks, it has been decided to go two blocks farther west and have the road on the section line. The extreme dry year has made it possible to carry on this work to good advantage. First manure was hauled in about a foot deep and as soon as this is all covered with a foot or so of dirt it will make a firm enough foundation for fairly good-sized loads to be hauled over. As there is very little move ment of the water from one end of the lake to the other it is thought that two or three large tile culverts will be .sufficient to take care of this natural flow back and forth and that a bridge will not be ne cessary, unless in the future if we are able to obtain two or three flowing wells so as to keep the lake full, a bridge might be put in. to enable boats to pass from one end to the other. This is a step in the right di rection and is taken at the oppor tune time as the work can be done now with half the inconvenience and expense it might again in a number of years. Those who have contributed work are urged to see the parties in charge and hurry the work along so that if further rains should come enough of a founda tion will be down to allqw of a continuation of the work. $8,000 District School Bonds, County, South Dakota.

PRICE $1.50 PER YEAR PLANS FORCELEBRA HON ABOUT COMPLETE INDICATIONS POINT TO LARGE ATTEND ANCE-YEAR OLD TOWN WILL BE HOST TO HUGE CROWD. That Timber Lake will be host to a much larger crowd than was at first anticipated by the most sanguine now seems to be a cer tainty. Word comes from all di rections indicating a record attend ance. With Governor Vessey will come a little party consisting of John D. Deets, commissioner of immigration P. F. McClure, C. E. DeLand, E. C. Perisho and a couple of newspaper men. Gover nor Vessey will make an address as a part of the first day's attrac tions and either Judge Witten of Washington, or Congressman Mar tin of Deadwood, or both, will make addresses on the second day. One feature that is attracting un usual attention is the base ball game arranged to be plaved be tween two Indian teams, one from the north country made up largely of Standing Rock Indians and the other from down near Cheyenne Agency. This promises to be a veritable 'humdinger' of a contest as many of the players learned the fine points of the game while away to Carlyle and other Indian schools An Indian seems to have the prop er mental and physical make-up to constitute a ball player. He loves the sport. He takes to it like a full-grown flea does to a sick 1 waier-spaniel canine. It will be a merry bunch of rooters on the sidelines when these two teams line up for the game. Perhaps it is due to the recent rains, at any rate something has put new life in the people. In fact it has created a poet who sings the following: Friends, relax all your efforts awhile, From your labors and cafftt: and let's smile On our anniversary date, Both early and late fr rf We'll celebrate In Timber Lake style. And, lest you may think this wiere boast, Come, be our guest—we'll be your And, like the light-hearted boy, Each event you'll enjoy And there'll be naught to annoy, From the smallest to the event you like most. REASON WOMEN WEAR OUT Through Mistaken Idea of Duty She Work* en With Rare Period* of Relaxation. Why do some women grow old and othero keep the secret of perpet ual youth? Here is one answer: One reason why the average wom an wears out, grows plain before her husband, is that, through a mistaken idea of duty, she lays out for herself at the beginning of her married life a scheme or plan of duty and em ployment for her time, every hour filled with work, with rare and short periods of relaxation. This she follows religiously kfuM usA ieil* thm li, S 'Ay-r* fc. z Vf fo* years, feeling that she has done her duty, because every household event occurs regularly and on time, while she soon becomes merely a machine, a thing without life of itself or vo lition. She settles into a rut and goes round and round on the same track everlastingly. Can any woman keep brightness, originality of thought or speech, or even mere prettiness with such a life? And without those tilings how can she keep her husbaifd and growing civil dren full of loving ad miration, which is the strong chain by which she can bind them to her?
