He is Cesar A. Correa of Panama who spent more than two weeks at the Edgar Goehring farm near Delmont and apparently enjoyed the South Dakota hospitality of these farm folks who gave him every opportunity of getting acquainted with South Dakota and its farming operations. He thoroughly enjoyed the South Dakota State Fair last week and previous to that had an opportunity to see the Hutchinson County Fair at Tripp. In addition, he had his first opportunity to see silage cutting operations on the Goehring farm.

"We don't have that type of operation in Panama," Cesar said. The youth came to the United States in June and before coming to South Dakota had visited in Florida later living in Edmunds and Miner Counties before coming to the Goehring farm here.

Up to Sept. 14 the state cement plant's 1959 business had increased 23.4 per cent above the comparable period in 1958, Shankland said. Year-to-date production figures offered by the sales manager showed the plant is 311,501 barrels ahead of 1958 with a total 1959 production of 1,642,874.

A study to curb nuisance of smoke issuing from the state cement plant in Rapid City was au thorized by the plan't commission. Members of the comm i 1 agreed to accept an offer from the Staven Engineering Company, Rapid City, for a survey and study of how dust from the stacks can be reduced. J. T.

Staven said he would conduct the study on a basis of $7.50 for each engineering man hour; $6.50 per man hour for engineering aides; actual cost of consultant time; travel expenses of $10 a day and 10 cents a mile and actual laboratory and incidental costs.

"Of course I'm not behind the counter any more," Collignon said, "but I still enjoy meeting many of my early customers as well as keeping in touch with the businesses and the operations of the stores." ROSEBUD W) Russian mier Khrushchev couldn't become an honoroary member of the Rosebud Sioux Indian tribe if he wanted. That's the emphatic word from Robert Burnette, Rosebud trib a council president, who heatedly denied a report the Red boss has been offered the chance to join the tribe during his national tour.

"We in no way approve of Khrushchev's visit," Burnette declared. "He'd be the last man in the world to get into the tribe. We'll guarantee that." Burnette's statement came after "Today," he added, "we have about three times as much stock as we carried when I started in the business and prices today are about three times or more as high as they were then." It was back in 1909 that Collignon and the late Ed Wolter came from St. Cloud, to Woonsocket to open their store here. In 1920 that partnership was dissolved and both operated hardwares in Woonsocket until Mr.

Wolter moved to Letcher. As the senior Colfignon looked at an old picture of the first store he said, "in those days, we carried the staple hardware stock plus such things kerosene and gas lamps, ranges and space heaters and ice boxes." It was in 1932 that the Colllgnon family purchased their store in Madison with sons Robert, Francis and Herman helping their father operate that store while Henry and Edward remained in Woonsocket to operate the home store. In 1935, Henry went to Madison. But then came the drouth and World War of which added problems the operation of the stores. "There were some pretty poor days," Mr.

Collignon said, 'but somehow we managed to survive. I can remember that my son, Henry, told me one time that his total 'take' one day was just a nickle." All five of his sons were called Into the added another worry and more headaches. "I was able to get some help," Mr. Collignon added, "but I practically commuted between Woonsocket and Madison to keep the two stores going." It was in 1947 that the Collignons took over a hardware store in Britton, but closed It out. In 1958, Herman Collignon assumed the management of the Yankton store.

Robert continued to manage the Madison store and Edward the Pre- Woonsocket store. Henry Collignon has continued to live in Brit ton although now out of the hardware business. The fifth son, Francis, lives in Long Beach, where he operates a variety store. Times have changed in the hardware business! R. L.

Now we have an obligation to see that our customer is satisfied to providing service." When Collignon started in Woonsocket they had a harness shop in connection with the hardware. They also had a tin shop.

"Our tinsmith used to make the stovepipes for the customers when they came in. You couldn't afford to hire a full time tinsmith today for the demand is too small." He pointed out that the different sized stovepipes come in, already to assemble. The 80 year old veteran hardware man pointed to the big stock of plastic items now offered in a drug store. "We never dreamed of that either when we started." he said. He could recall the problems of aluminum when it first came on the.

market. "There ras nothing wrong with the aluminum," he said, "but the water here in Woonsocket contained a chemical which ate holes in it. They kept changing though and everything was alright." "It used to be," he said, "that the hardware stores handled pretty much all of the hardware items sold in a town including build- ir's hardware. Even all of that has changed." he added, "just another sign of the changes being (work organized in such a way that it could be of assistance to the House Indian Affairs Subcommittee.

Sturgis Weekly Is Purchased By Morris Hallock STURGIS Morris Hallock, owner publisher of the Sturgis Tribune, has purchased the Black Sills Press, longtime Sturgis weekly newspaper. The announcement indicated the Tribune, which started semi-weekly publication last April, will return to weekly publication on Wednesday. The press will be published on Saturday. Hallock, former state secretary of finance, published the Philip Pioneer Review before moving to Sturgis.

Although new Wessington Springs grade school and gym is a beautiful and versatile building. Realizing the need for a new grade school to replace an old dilapidated brick building which was on the verge of falling the need for a gym.and auditorium the folks of Wessington Springs worked hard.

They raised some money themselves and then gave support to a bond issue for the rest of the money. They have a nice grade' section to the north of Hie spacious auditorium which is capable of seating more than 1,500 for home basketball for other events where seats can be placed on the main floor. There's nothing fancy about the structure. It's simple lines and its beautiful colors on the interior add to Its atmosphere. Quite interest- ng Is the fact that Its cost totaled in the vicinity of $200,000 for the auditorium AND the 14-room school section.

NOT THERE! Mrs. Hans May of Stickney sent along this little note about the words of a youngster. It seems that recently her sister and family of Mitchell visited in the Black Hills and after the conducted tour through the Wind Cafe, four- year-old daughter Mary remarked to her mother: "Mommy, you said the devil lived under the I didn't see him." WE ALWAYS HAVE IT! And speaking of the "gems" from the mouths of babes, comes this cute iittle story which we clipped from "Notes" column written by Davison in the Miner County Pioneer up at Howard; A little girl returning from Sunday School was asked to recite the Lord's Prayer for her grandmother. The prayer was said word for word until she came to the lines asking for our "dally bread." At this point she hestitated and said, "I'm not going to say that part, 3randma, cause we always have bread in the house." GOOD CROP And from the same column was this little story so timely in this dry year: Another little gal (now a mother) who grew up during the thirties had learned the story of Noah's Ark and the great Discussing the story with her mother, she commented, "Gee, Mama, I'll bet they had a good corn crop that year." CITY SLICKER! Here's a clipping from the July 23, 1909 files, of the South Dakota Mail at While M. F.

Griffin was returning to White Lake Saturday night after the celebration, he encountered a "sneeze wagon" owned by a Mitchell party. The driver of the "buzz wagon" failed to turn out and Mr. Griffin was compelled to drive onto the side of the road to escape getting run down. He was peeved at the hoggishness of the other fellow and told him that "some farmer would pull him out of the machine one of these days and give him a trimming if ehe persisted in taking up all of the road." The owner of the machine promptly stopped and invited Mr. Griffin to "show him," and in about a minute the fellow was hollering for someone to come and let him loose.

Griffin very charitably turned him right side, up and after placing him in his machine advised him to be more careful in the future on how he treated these Aurora County Farmers. IN POOR HEALTH Might Two suggest that you neighbors who Tulip Festivals and the others who knew John Bartow of Plankinton take time out to drop him a card. You John became sicK quite suddenly and after a short period of hospitalization in Mitchell was taken to Minneapolis where he is being cared for by a niece. Thought maybe a card sent to him in care of Urma McKichan at 2301 Bryant Ave. Minneapolis 5, might be a big help to a guy who has done so for so many people.

We've had no report on his condition, but Indications are that his health is not the best. SO RIGHT! We'll go along with County Agent R. B. Kelton of McCook County on his observation: "If it's any consolation, anybody who is mistaken for a moose gets shot li better off dead anyway."

"If someone had suggested that Charlie Starkweather, the mad murderer from Nebraska, were to be given a guest room in the Blair or a ride down Pennsylvania Avenue In Washington somebody would have thought somebody was iompletely nuts "And yet, they rolled out the red carpet, gave a 21-gun salute, played the Russian National Anthem for a man who murdered many thousands of times more people than Starkweather did.
