HORSE RUSTLERS Were at Work This Winter in Pierre District PIERRE, May 5 Apparently horse rustlers were at work In the eastern part of this county the past winter.

looking up thlr horses this spring owners found a number of the herds short in count, and after investigating some of them weru located in the bands of purchasers, practically across the state as far as Brookings. You may not think well of your en vironments but then nobody does. Dodge, for discharge, unless the war department can be persuaded-to Bend them to some point nearer home for that purpose. By some well in' formed people this is considered as very probable, although the matter has been taken up by city and state officals and is being urged on Wash-, ington by our congressmen. Arrangements will be made to re- ceive the home boys when they re- turn which will probably be by the end of the present month.

Naturally, Lead is mainly interest ed in the return of Battery (old company H) i part of the 147th field artillery. The fact that the dispatch Irom Washington states that the entire regiment, with the exception of one detachment, is aboard the battleship Kansas, leads to the query, is it possible that Battery constitutes this one exception. It is not probable that it does in fact it seems quite certain that Company is-aboard, as letters received here stated positively they had everything packed and ready to start for Brest on April 15th, at l.oon. No word has been received since that time that, they did not niove on schedule time, but on the ether hand, no word has been received that they did not start, and there has been time for a letter on April '5 or 16th to have reached Lead. Taking all things into consideration, it is perfect safe to assume that the Lead boys are on the battleship Kansas in midocean, at the present moment and that they will land in Philadelphia on May 14th, a week from Wednesrlay.

the Water SOUTH DAKOTA BOYS Rooms and Attendant Provided la New York PIERRE, May 4 Adjutant General Morris has gone to New York to provide a room and attendant to ireet and look after South Dakota soldiers who land in that city on their return home. This is in line With other northwest states, which have cither opened such rooms, or are preparing to take such atcion. On account of the fcgltatlon over the placing ot and retaining Wm. Randolph Hearst at the head of the Soldiers Re ception committee action by the state has been -delayed but as increasing number of returning soldiers in many cases require ttention on their arrival in New York, action is being generally taken along the line of providing a meeting room In which such soldiers can feel that they are as much "at home" as they would be after they had reached their home dates and this state is getting into line for such care of the soldiers.

In view of the fact that old Com pany has been officially reported to now be on its way across the At lantic and will be landed in Philadel phia, May 14th, it is regarded as necessary to at once take up tne mat ter of their reception whetf the Lead boys reach home, which will probably be the latter part of this month or very early next month.

May 5. With their lives pledged to the pursuit of good health, more than 3,000,000 school children thoruehout America have been enrolled in the Modern Health Crusade, a disease prevention move ment which is being developed In the public schools of the country under the auspices of the National Tubercu- osis association and the Junior Red Cross, it was announced today by Charles M. DeForest, crusader execu- ive at the former organization's headquarters here. "There are now crusaders in every tate in the Union," Mr. De Forest said.

"The health creed of the cru- ade has become a part of the school program in thousands of schools, both rural and urban. It has also caused innovations in the curricula of paro chial and private schools." Among the larger cities where the movement has been adopted in an or part of the elementary schools, he said, are Baltimore, Birmingham, Cleveland, Dallas, Indianapolis, Kan sas City, Minneapolis NewarK, New Orleans, New York, Philadelphia, Providence, Portland Seattle, and Washington, u. wnne primarily intended for elementary grade the crusade has been taken up by a number of high scnoois ana ui buuio the system is being taught also to student teachers in normal schools. The success of the movement according to its leaders, is due to the interest in health aroused in the chil-aren by introducing the elements of play and romance in the practice of and by definite program tangible rewards. So eagerly have the children in certain sections of the country taken to the daily "chore" idea that a toothbrush sort-age is reported in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Iowa and Oklahoma.

The Health crusade movement is rot confined to America, alone; not withstanding the war the idea has spread to foreign countries and enlistments have been reported from China, Corea, Canada, Cuba and France, Mr. De Forest said. WASHINGTON, May 3 Trans-'irort1 sailings wre-announced today us follows: The battleship Kansas is due to arrive at Philadelphia May 14, with the 147th field artillery, less a detachment, and one casual company. The 147th field artillery, South Dakota's own, is now somewhere in the Atlantic ocean bound tor home shores. Aboard the United States battleship Kansas, one of the nation's largest fighting craft, this regiment, so dear to the hearts of South Dakota ns, will arrive at Philadelphia on Wednesday, May 14.

This information was contained in a dispatch received Saturday, by the Associated Press. The entire 147th is aboard the battleship, the dispatch bays, with the exception of one detachment. Previus dispatches had indicated that the regiment would leave Brest, France, about the first of this month, and letters from the boys had said the understanding among them was that the date for sailing had been set as May 2. Apparently their in- iormation was correct, and it is very probable that the-South Dakota boys started on their homeward sea voyage Friday. It is expectM that they will not be held in any eastern camp except perhaps long enough to assign them to immobilization cantonments nearest their respective home states.

The Oregon boys in the regiment will probably be sent to Camp Lewis. while the South Dakota boys are likely to sent at once to Camp Testing omic restoration.
