FORTY CENTS PER MONTH BEMIDJI HIGH GRAND RAPI Game at Down-Town Park at 3:30---“Rooters,” Keep Off the Diamond---“Kids” Team Goes to T Grand Rapids, Bemidji’s long- time rival in athletics, will send a high school baseball team to this city tomorrow afterncon to try conclusions on the local diamond with the team representing the Bemidji High School. Last fall, for the first time in the history of the Bemidji schools, the locals defeated the ‘‘Rapids” in an athletic contest by winning a football game to the score of 12;60\11&, to 6. The baseball team this spring intends to ‘’keep the ball|son, cf; a-rolling” and tomorrow’s contest will be a battle royal. The athletic relations between Bemidji and Grand Rapids, as far as the schools are concerned, have| always been of the best. If there has been any ill feeling, it was| outside of the schools. The boys of the Grand Rapids High School are| a clean, manly set of young fellows and deserve only the best of treat- ment. If the local fans, whose ex- citement leads them to want to “geti into the game,” will curb their| ambitions a little, there will be nothing but the best of feeling pre- vailing tomorrow. One of the Grand | Rapids papers has called us a| “bunch of hoodlums.” Let us give| the visitors a ‘‘square deal” to- morrow to show our hospitality and| not give their backers any excuse | or “‘beefing.” Get out and cheer the home team, boys, but keep off; the diamond. The game will be celled at 3:30 | !noon and play at the SCHOOL VS.

BURGLARS WILL RUN UP AGAINST THE BIG NOISE The Lumbermens National [Bank Has Installed Most Complete Burglar Alarm System. Covetous individuals, who obtain a livlihood by the dexterous use of a jimmy, nitroglycerine and a fuse, will hereafter be foiled in any attempt which they may make to force an entrance to the ‘‘strong box” of the Lumbermens National Bank, wherein are contained the funds of that institution, together with valuable papers and other ¢‘goods and chattels.” The Lumbermens Bank has just installed an intricate burglar alarm \@\‘ RS —one of the most complete and thorough alarms that is furnished by the Electrical Protection com- pany. There is a system of alarms con- taining six gongs, one of which is on the outside of the building, five are on the inside, two of which are located in the vault, the other three being at convenient points around the interior of the build- ing, There are really two vaults in the Lumbermens Bank, one being located in close proximity to the banking room, and in which is stored the money safe and valu- able papers, The other vault adjoins the first vault and con- tains the safety deposit boxes. Both of these vaults are lined with steel, By means of the new electric burglar alarm every inch of the steel lining of these vyaults is di- rectly connected with the alarm. Any person touching either the handle or the dial or any part of the vaults or approaching the steel lin- ing from either inside or outside of the bank, when the vaults are closed, will immediately “touch off’” the six alarm gongs. These gongs will beat a very lively tatoo for twenty-three consecutive hours un- less they are stopped. This alarm is a very thorough one and the in- stalling of the system places the Lumbermens National Bank among the foremost banking institutions of this part of the state. ‘The bank is also protected against burglary, either the night or day- light hold-ups. As the bank is also protected in every manner known to bankers, depositors get the very best for their money at the Lumbermens. The bank officials have ordered eighteen feet of steel shelves for use in the vaults. These shelves are most up-to-date pattern. The installing of these appliances completes a very modern banking establishment. Two years ago the old furniture and fixtures of the bank were re- moved and new mission furniture and fixtures were installed. In addi- tion to this there are all of the accessories for expeditious and effici- ent banking. A. P. White of Bemidji is presi- dent of the Lumhermens National Bank, A. D. Stephens of Crookston is vice president, W. L. Brooks of this city is cashier and L. Berman, also of Bemidji, is assistant cashier. SENIOR GLASG PLAY IS A 600D ENTERTAINMENT *‘Mitsu-Yu-Nissi, or a Japanese Wed- ding,” Was Successfully Played at Duluth. The play, “Mitsu-Yu-Nissi, or a Japanese Wedding,” whick will be presented in the City Hall May 28th by members of the Senior class of Bemidji High School, will doubtless be a fine one, as is evinced by the following item taken from the News Tribune of Duluth, where the play was recently enacted by high school girls: ““‘A Japanese Wedding’ was pre- sented yesterday afternoon at the high school before an enthusiastic audience. It was an attractive little comedy charmingly played, and reflected great credit on the mem- bers of the cast. “While all were good, special mention must be made Miss Goldine mother, Miss Loretta Tims, asa Budhist priest, and Miss Helen Hawkes as Tasaku Jamamoto, the hero of the play. The incidental music was very pretty and appropri- ate and was well received. Worthy of particular metion was ‘The Lan- tern Song,’ in the second act.” To Celebrate His Birthday. The Bemidji Lodge of the Sons of Herman have been invited out to the farm of Herman Eikstadt, a a few miles from this city, to spend next Sunday and aid “Herman” in properly celebrating the anniversary of his birthday. There will be a ball game in the afternoon and plenty of refreshments, so the local members of the lodge are anticipat- ing a very good time. Summer School Boarders.

New Pictures are Fine. The pictures for the new high school building, purchased from the receipts of the Horace K. Turner Art Exhibit of Boston, have been received. The prints are a rich brown, and for depth, beauty and brilliancy are unequaled. They are made by a wonderful secret process, and are permanent in color. The most brilliant and striking of the subjects is “Signing the Declara- tion of Independence” by Trumbull. The original of this painting is the property of the Yale University. Colonel John Trumbull was an American artist, born in Connecticut. County Superintendent. He was a painter of historical sub- jects. Among the most interesting of his painttngs are those on the walls of the Rotundre of the Capitol at Washington, represeuting the “Surrender of Burgoyne,” “The Re- signation of Washington at Anna- polis” and *“The Declaration of In- dependence.” Another subject which is unsur- passed for its quiet and restful beauty isa ‘““Marine and Vessels,” the work of a Belgium artist, Paul Jean Cleays. The original of this piceure is in the Art Institute, Chicago. “Oxen Ploughing” is by Constant [Continued on Page 2.] GILL BROTHERS BEMIDJI THE POPULAR PRICED CLOTHIERS MINN, THE ONLY WAY Creens, $15.00 to $30.00 To do business goes with it.
