GEORGE T. BAKER & GO, MANUFACTURING JEWELERS BemidJi, 116 3rd St. Minn. STUDENTS MEET SPECIAL (Continued from first page). Two-hour stops will be made in forty towns, and next Sunday the train will be at Bemidji, and the fol- lowing Sunday at Erskine. T. A. Hoverstad, former superintendent of the experiment substation at Crooks- ton and now agricultural commis- sioner for the Soo line, is in general charge of the itinerary and lecture arrangements in the various towns. ey JOHNSON INDICTED Chicago, Nov. ¢.—Charged with a violation of the Mann white slave law, Jack Johnson, pugilist, was in- dicted here yesterday. The Mann law rules against the transportation of women from one state to another for immoral purposes. He was in- dicted on four counts and bail was fixed at $30,000. New Turn Table for G. N. Contractors have commenced work on the construction of a new turn the London industry. Mrs. C. W. Gates Says Outing Asso- ciation Has Obtained Big Re- sults from Bemidji. NEED MORE OLD CLOTHING Mrs. Eleanor Howland and daugh- ter, Mrs. C. W. Gates, both of 122 West Thirty-second Street, Minneap- | olis, were in the city Thursday. They are both connected with the Minne- apolis Fresh Air Fund and Outing association, Mrs. Howland being one of the organizers. She has also had charge of the transportation depart- ment for twenty-one years. This is the first time Mrs. Howland has been in Bemidji, but Mrs. Gates has been here several times before. They both speak very favorably of Bemidji and said they have secured a good many homes for children around Bemidji, and in towns up the line. Yesterday morning they brought three children with them from Min- neapolis, two of these were placed in homes near Wilton and one near Puposky. Praise the Pioneer. “The Pioneer has brought us more results than any other paper in the state. Even the twin city papers, such as the Journal, Tribune and Dispatch, have not brought the aid and assistance that the Pioneer has. We are very grateful for the work you have done. The association has been working for twenty-one years and each year the people of the state are helping more.” “Too much praise cannot be given the Pioneer for the help and coopera- tion we have received through it,” said Mrs. Gates yesterday. They left yesterday afternoon by the way of Crookston, where they also expect to get homes for children, as well as in Euclid and Fosston. In Euclid Miss Chapin has charge of the work. These ladies expect to be up again next week and will place some chil- dren in homes near Blackduck. In speaking of their work, they Real Joy Comes From. Creating Though the Olgiect May Not Be of Great Significance. ‘While every man who makes a liv ing 18 not a genius, yet the real Joy of creating can belong to each of us in Just as. real and true a way. If we put into farming, or banking, or our school work, the sense of making something, we get the great pleasure out of it. When we fill any task with ourselves, we make something. A girl says, “I made the room tidy,” which simply means she put something of herself into the disorderly room, and 80 beautified it. After she had made it tidy, it reflected something of her self; it looked some idea of order such as she had in her own mind. A boy says, “I made a good recitation in #chool yesterday;” and he is right, for, although the lesson was already there, it had to wait for him to come along and make it a recitation. So it is everywhere. Making any- thing means, no matter how simple the task, that we bring out something that did nrot exist before; and that that something is to some degree like the maker of it. We get out what we put in. If anyone wants to be miser- able, the surest way is just to do things without putting his whole heart and self into them. Think more of the mere outside of the tasks, and they are not worth doing. But once put yourself into them, and all is changed. —Saint Nicholas. BOUND TO LOVE EACH OTHER Probably Third Woman Was Right, but the Other Two Must Have Felt Somewhat Uncomfortable. There was a great crowd at the ple ture exhibition, and empty seats were at a premium, when two pretty women spled and made for a place at the self-same moment. They reached the prize together, both pretending ig- norance of the other, -and, flopping themselves down, succeeded in squeez- ing breathlessly and miserably ia. There they sat then, each scowling and staring at the rudeness of her re- spective neighbor, each wriggling and)| squirming as much as possible in or-| der to crowd that mneighbor still! further. Finally the situation became; acute, and ome of the women spoke: with fine sarcasm: “I beg your par-| don, but do you need the . whole seat?” “l beg yours,” the answer. came, “but I never talk to sirangers.” Just then a third pretty woman passed, stopped and addressed the two at once: “Why, to think of find- ing you two here together! ‘And I have always wanted to introduce you, because I just know you will just love each other. Mabel, this is Maid, and Maud, this is my dear old Mabél.

The eustom of “telling the bees” ia often referred to by those interested in curious happenings. In some parts -of England it has always been the ‘habit to inform the bees whenever ‘there is a death in the family, pagticu- larly when it is that of the master or mistress. Some one raps upom the board sup- porting the hives and says: “Mourn with us, master (or mistress) of the house is dead.” It is thought that if this duty is neglected the bees will die; and many old servants are fond of telling how the bees pine away whem no onq thinks to give shem the sad message. America’s Oldest University. The comparatively small connection the people of the United States have with Peru makes it difficult for many to realize that im the city of Lima is the oldest university in the new world, the University of San Hareos, founded in 15653. At this historic educational institution a students’ congress was held recently that was moteworthy in its character. The winister of in- struction gave a magnificent banquet in bonor of the delegates, at which a large number of distinguished guests were present, and at which several ppeeches appreciative ef closer inter- course between the American nations ‘were made. ‘Water Surface of Globe. The portion of the earth’s surface that is covered by water, when the lakes and inland meas are included, is three times as great as the dry " |land area. The surface area of the oceans is 127,000,000 square miles—an area more than 40 times as large as. the United States. The ocean wate teem with life. Though thousands of: water creatures are known and clas-. __ | sified, scientiats are continually dise- covering new life forms in the oceam depths. Heretofore dragnets have been mainly depended upon, but there are doubtless many sea animals that elude these trawls. Books Bound in Rat Skin. 3 It appears that a new use has: been found for the skin of the common btrown rat. In England, it is said, the bookbinders have taken to using these sking for covers of fine editions hither- to bound in high grade leathers. It is reported that a trade amounting to one-quarter million dollars a year has developed in Great Britain and that many skins are imported from Calcut. ta. Rat skins have long been used for purses, gloves and similar small an ticles, and are proving very useful fo§ these purposes.
