The real test is in the baking. Other Baking Powders may make broad claims, but when it comes to the production of real delicious biscuit, cakes and pastry CALUMET BAKING POWDER proves its real worth. This is because of its much_greater leavening power and the strict purity of its ingredients. It costs only a trifle more than the cheap and big can brands and much less than the Trust Baking Powders. Received Highest Award World’s Pure Food Exposition Chicago, 1907. CHICUGO The Da.ily Pioneer 10c per Week Boys’ Club Had Good Time. The boys’ club, known in Bemidji as the Brotherhood of David, and which consists very much of Mrs. M. F Cunningham’s Sunday school class, had a royal time on New There were in all atout thirty-five pres- ent. The club opened with its regular order of business, and proceeded with its election of officers, after which a debate was held upon the question, “Resolved, that Washington was a greater statesman than Lincoln.” The affirmative side won the debate, which was carried out in a very commendable way. After the debate, they repaired to the large room that had been decorated with the club colors, and a fine table spread with all kinds of eatables, that enticed the most reticent. At the close of the banquet the Rev. Chas. E. White acted at toast- master, and the responses on the part of the club members would have done credit to many a full- grown man that we have listened to. Much credit is due to its leader, Mrs. Cunningham, for the way these boys spent the last hours of the old year, and the many pointers that such an evening furnished them, Year's eve at her home, that will stand them in hand when they grow up to be men.
