Closing Theater Sunday. A problem which concerns the ba- sic philosophy of life of each person in Bemidji confronts the council as the result of an ordinance introduced for first reading last Monday aight. The ordinance in graph read as follows: its first para “No theater, moving picture show, dance hall, or other place of amuse- ment for which an admission fee is charged, shall be kept open, nor any merry-go-round or steam riding ma- chine allowed to run or be operated on the seventh day of the week, com- monly known as Sunday. It is a fact that needs no proving that Sunday in Bemidji is not ob- served as it is in most other Minne- sota cities. The down town streets are usually as crowded on Sunday evening as on any other—perhaps barring Saturday. In many respects, the day is little different than an or- dinary holiday. The quiet, reverent atmosphere that usually goes with the Sabbath is largely lacking. It has been said that to close the theaters and moving picture shows would be to do away with a large amount of the attraction that pulls people down town and away from their homes and churches on Sunday afternoon and evening. It has been alleged, and perhaps it is true, that a larger number of young people would attend Sunday evening church services were the moving pictures not calling to them with their new pro- grams for Sunday night. It is plainly against the state law for shows to remain open on Sunday, but Minnesota cities pretty general- ly have disregarded the state law on the subject of keeping the Sabbath. It is pointed out that this violation of state law does not teach the younger generation 1o respect that law but has an opposite effect. On the other hand, Sunday is nam- ed in the Bible as a day for recrea- tion; that is, a making over. It isa well known fact that one of the best methods for making over is to have a change or a rest from what one has been doing. So in conmection with this question many say that thero are a large number of men in the city who have no evening in the week except Sunday on which they can attend a moving picture show. This class is said to be largely made up of mill hands who work every night in-the week except Sunday. Just how far the city as a whole should countenance a violation of the state law and other practices which do not make for the best mor- al effect on the growing generation to the Pioneer seems to be the ques- tion which is involved in this ordi- nance. < The ordinance will have a second reading August 5 and will come up for vote on August 19. During the next month it would be well for the citizens of Bemidji to consider this question carefully and when a de- cision is reached, tell the councilmen in order that their action may be a true refleetion of public opmloli. 1894—President Cleveland signed the act admitting Utah to statehood. 1898—Santiago de Cuba surren- dered to the United States forces. 1903-—James A. McNeill Whistler, famous artist, died in London. in Lowell, Mass.. in 1834. 1911—Senator Terrell of Georgia resigned from the United States sen- ate. Born THIS IS MY 53rd BIRTHDAY. Luis Munoz Rivers, the resident commissioner of Porto Rico at Wash- ington, was born at Barranquitas, Porto, Rico, July 17, 1859, and was educated in the public schools of his native land. In 1889 he founded a daily newspaper in San Juan, of which he has since been editor and publisher. He was one of the lead- ers in the movement which resulted in the establishment of home rule for Porto Rico while it was still under the sovereignty of Spain. When the island passed into the possession of the United States he served for a ‘time as president of the insular cab- inet. He served three terms in the legislature and in 1904 he founded the Unionist party. Almost continu- ously since 1898 Semor Rivera has labored to obtain a greater measure o fself-government for the Porto Ric- ans and since 1910 he has resided in Washington to keep in closer touch Wwith the president and congress.

When people read about the cures made by a medicine endorsed from far away, is it surprising that they wonder if the statements are true? But when they read of cases right here at home, positive proof is with- in their reach, for close investiga- tion is an easy matter. Read Bemid- ji endorsement of Doan’s Kidney Pills. Oliver Goodhamer, carpenter, 1200 Dewey Ave., Bemidji, Minn., says: “I have used Doan’s Kidney Pills and have no hesitation in recommending them. Some years ago I was annoy- ed by my kidneys. It hurt me to stoop or lift and in the morning I felt stiff and lame. I used two boxes of Doan’s Kidney Pills and they gave me strength.
