The members of both teams will meet at the Markham hotel at 2:30 Saturday and from there they will be driven to the ball field in the ho- tel buss.

Now that the Tigers are playing at home, Detroit fans figure that there is nothing to it but first place for the Jennings crew.

Color in Precious Stones. The color of gem stones, although of greatest importance commercially, is of little or no value in determining their particular identity. Certain stones show their characteristic shades of color, it is true, but it is only after various tests have been applied that color can be considered at all as evidence of value. All min- erals in their pure state are puré white, and the color shown is due to mineral pigment in many cases. | The Boston Rustlers will again do| SCHOOLS OPEN HERE SEPT. 5; PLANS GIVEN (Continued from first page).

With all the splendid facilities af- forded in the Bemidji high school for an education along any line which may suit the natural talents of the young people of this community, whether for college preparation, rural teaching, house work, shop work, office work or business life, it seems that the school has reached that point in its history that few if any young people need to seek an education elsewhere at great ex- pense and at great risk of unhappy environments. The school this year will receive $5,000.00 in special state aid. This aid is what enables the school to offer the variety of courses, to provide the splendid facilities and to secure the high class of instructors, in addition to what Work tully guarant people who are hem DUTTON & YATES, Props " Excellent Locati This Scientific_ correction of stammering, stuttering and other faults of speech Home and school combined with excel- lent accommodations for children and adults Recommedded by physicians, educators and hundreds of cured pupils Write for freeiinformation, catalog, etc. Add.
