A RHYMED REVIEW.

Far away from the bustle of cities In a spot that was countryside famed Lived a Miracle Man, strangely gifted To deliver the stricken and 1 maimed. rTo this patriarch old in his cottage With a plan to reap wealth from his deeds, Came, a group from .the slums of # Manhattan, Who obeyed no command save their needs. There was Burke and the Girl and the Dope Fiend And a misshapen brute, their decoy Then a Miracle happened! The gangsters ’ _ Found the vile in their hearts was alloy! For the pure, guileless life ’mid the mountains Brought ideas that cleansed smirched hearts of crime, ’Til at last even Burke, the foulhearted, Freed his soul from the taint of its slime. It’s a picture that tugs at your heart strings Full of thrills, mixed with laughter and tears. When you see it,-, you’ll echo with thousands: “Takes its place with the greatest in years.”

FOR YE EDITOR.

The dearth of teachers in South Dakota forced the state department to reinforce the efforts of the several county superintendents, by resorting to the newspapers as an advertising medium. Hon. Fred Shaw, with his accustomed vision, authorized the insertion of ads in sixteen of the leading daily newspapers of the United States, requesting teachers for the state. The result was that the department has been able to place an average of twenty firstgrade teachers daily. It proves conclusively that educational advertising through the newspapers, when properly directed, pays well bybringing immediate results. A business that is not worth advertising is not worth patronizing. This principle applies to the educational business as well as to any other.- — South Dakota Educator.

EIGHTY-ONE COUNTIES IN FIRST STATE CONVENTION.

Indianapolis, Ind., Nov. 24. [Special. ] • ■Officers of the Federation of Farmers’ associations with headquarters in this city are. highly elated over the result of the ! first annual convention of the organization held during the last week, rhe enthusiasm and loyalty expressed by the delegates from all parts of the state, along with the spirit of co-operation manifested, svas such that the leaders in the federation have tackled the job of making Indiana 100 per cent organized with renewed vigor and energy. It also is a souree -of pride an the part of the members of the federation that their organization is the first in the United States to become affiliated with the new national federation of farmers known as the American Farm Bureau federation. Indiana fanners had a prominent part in drafting the constitution of this organization at the Chicago meeting two weeks ago, and as a tribute to their work the Indiana convention ratified the national constitution and voted to jo'n it by unanimous action. Eighty-one counties were represented with official delegates pres ent at the state convention, and the first annual session of the fanners will go down Fn agricultural history of the state as one marked by harmony and unity of purpose. The various county associations used good judgment in the selection of their accredited delegates, the convention as a whole being made up of good sound thinking farmers wnose purpose it is to better conditions and build up our public institutions rather than destroy. There was not a single radical provision advocated and the series of resolutions adopted have received considerable favorable comment on the part of the press. , The work of completing the organizations in the eleven counties which either have failed to organize in part or have failed to affiliate with the parent body for some cause or other will be carried on throughout the winter Ninety-two counties fully organized and affiliated with the Indiana Federation of Farmers’ associations is the goal set by the officers and district directors The eleven counties now out of the fold are: Perry, Crawford, Dubois, Martin, ‘Brown, Switzerland, Ohio, Jasper, Elkhart, Vermillion and Owen. Mrs. Van Grant was in Chicago today. .
