POET AT POET'S BIRTHPLACE. Shepherd M. Dugger, the bard of Grandfather mountain, recently described for the Observer a dance at Blowing Bock. Could any -words, in truth, embody more sense sublime than these? "Just as the saffron fan from the sunset gathered in ita folds, meu and women darted inti the dance like meteors, and as the sweet zephyrs from the Grandfather whispered poems through the win dows they glided metrically on the thrilling pulse of music to the rhyth mic metre of souls." Or than these? "The gaudily dressed couples were so thick on the floor that they looked jlike a wilderness of blooming hodo idendrons stirred by Charlotte Observer. :t J* V ""JS* This being the first temr of court in this county it also happened to be the first visit of Judge Carpen ter to our town. Mr. Carpenter has a very pleasing personality and during his short stay here made many friends. He also con ducts court with the ease and dis patch of one who has spent years on the bench. A very happy affair in connect ion with the convening of court was the smoker given to visitors by the Commercial Club Monday night. The meeting was presided over by J.D.Y. Smith, president of the club ajjd he called upon about all of the visiting attorneys, Judge Carpenter and others for talks and all responded in a very lfappy man ner. A number of them took oc casion to refer. to the progress Timber Lake has made the high standard of citizenship here and over the reservation in general, and especially the harmony and team work displayed py Timber Lake citizens regarding all public matters. While the meeting was rather an informal one it neverthe less proved a very enjoyable affair. THE MOVEMENT IN EGYPT. Now it is the Moslem women of Egypt who are taking part in the women movement, having asked of the Moslem congress the right to at tend prayers and sermons in the •mosques, a privilege already granted to the women of Constantinople. They also ask that the primary edu cation of young women be made obli gatory that young girls be admitted to schools of medicine to. use means to prevent polygamy and the abuse of divorce and to teach Mohamme dan girls sewing, housekeeping and hygiene, ONCE NUR8ED io go 'v wy 1 i V* r- \('-*4 •.u TIMBER LAKE, SOUTH DAKOTA, FRIDAY, NOV. io. 1911.
