President Receives and Dedicates the
Grounds
ST LOUIS The rites which pres
ent the Louisiana Purchase exposition
to the world were performed in the
Liberal Arts building Thursday with
all the dignity and splendor befitting
such an occasion
A parade of 11000 soldiers down Lin
dell boulevard to the Worlds fair
grounds formed a brilliant prelude
to the ceremony of dedication
This prelude over 60000 people
were crowded into the big auditorium
where in the presence of official rep
resentatives of all the civilized na
tions of the world the words of dedi
cation were spoken by the president
of the United States As the last
syllable fell from the presidents lips
and as the words of dedication were
completed 60000 voices rose in a pro
digious basx note of applause
Following the invocation of the
cardinal former United States Sena
tor Thomas H Carter of the national
commission who acted as presi
dent of the day was Introduced ana
made a speech
After the rendition of The
Heavens Proclaiming by the chorus
of 2000 voices David R Francis
president of the fair association de
livered an address presenting the
buildings of the fair
At the close of President Francis
address terrific cheers broke to greet
President Roosevelt whose dedication
address was in part as follows
The work of expansion was by far
the greatest work of our people dur
ing the years that intervened between
the adoption of the constitution and
the outbreak of the civil war
Never before had the world seen
the kind of national expansion which
gave our people all that part of the
American continent lying west of the
thirteen original states the greatest
landmark in which was the Louisiana
purchase 4H
When our forefatners jomea 10 call
into being this action they undertook
a task for which there was but little
encouraging precedent The develop
ment of civilization from the earliest
period seemed to show the truth of
two propositions In the first place it
had always proved exceedingly diffi
cult to secure both freedom and
strength in any government and in
the second place it had always proved
well nigh impossible for a nation to
expand without either breaking up or
becoming a centralized tyranny
The exercises closed by a benedic
tion by Bishop Potter of New York
At the conclusion of the speeches be
ing the 100th anniversary of the sign
ing of the treaty which transferred
the Louisiana purchase from France
to the United States a centennial
salute of aerial guns was fired
Russian Ambassador Talks
WASHINGTON D C Count Cas
sini the Russian ambassador called
at the state department Thursday and

Hay in whicli the whole Manchurian
matter is understood to have been
fully and frankly discussed The dis
cussion throughout was of the most
amicable and satisfactory character
called later and discussed Manchurian
matters

KNEW WHEN TO QUIT
Judge Promptly Saw the Point In Pol
iticians Advice
One of the most hospitable citizens
o Sioux Falls was Judge Fuller of
the Supreme Court He was intro
duced to the presidents attention
with tho following incident of his
career
The judges made a strong campaign
to get the legislature to raise their
salaries The bill met with great op
position Judge Fuller who had no
small political influence went up to
Pierre to see about it He was met
by one of the leaders of the party
How about this thing said the
Judge
Judge said the other politician
gravely you better drop this salary
business I tell you as a friend You
dont want it to go through It Is not
in your interest
Why aint it
Dont you see judge explained
the politician that if we put the sal
aries of the judges up to the figure
you want the people will turn around
and elect real lawyers to the bench
The point of the story is that the
judge dropped the amendment at

IN CONVENTION
Teachers Learn Something Not In
the Class Books
A number of young women attend
ing a teachers convention at Okla
homa City some time ago learned a
valuable lesson in hygiene through a
sister teacher who says About a
year ago I had my first attack of poor
health and it seemed a terrible thing
to me for I had always been so well
and strong My stomach distressed
me terribly it seemed like it was
raw especially after breakfast and
it would burn and hurt me so I could
not rest I was soon convinced that
it was caused by coffee drinking and
at the request of a friend I gave up
coffee and began to use Postum Cof
fee
The change in my condition was
something marvelous I had actually
given up teaching because doctors
were unable to help my stomach trou
ble but since I quit coffee and used
Postum my troubles have disappear
ed and I have gone to teaching again
Some time ago I attended a con
vention at Oklahoma City and I de
termined to have Postum at my
boarding house where there were
eight other teachers four of them
suffering from coffee sickness My
landlady did not make the Postum
right but I showed her how and we
all found it delicious We all drank
it the rest of the time we were there
and the young ladies in question felt
much better and declared that their
heads were much clearer for study
and their general health much im
proved I have their names if you
care for them Names furnished by
