Crookston Making Ready. Crookston, Nov. 27. — The third annual convention of the Northern Minnesota Development association to be held in Crookston Thursday and Friday, December 5 and 6, will be the. best convention ever held by the association, and Crookston will do her part. All visitors will be banqueted at the Crookston School of Agriculture the first day by the business men of Crookston, and a smoker will be giv- en later the same evening in the com- mercial club rooms. It costs money to take care of such a convention and it takes work to prepare for it. The program which has been prepared includes addresses by such men as James J. Hill, Presi- dent George E. Vincent of the Uni- versity of Minnesota, Fred B. Snyder of Minneapolis, G. G. Hartley of Du- luth, and a number of others. The first afternoon session will be held at the Crookston School of Agri- culture, where several of the build- ings will be dedicated. This is very proper because this great school is one of the most potent forces toward a better development of Northern Minnesota. The committees named to handle the convention, and who ‘should be given every assistance by lother citizens, both in cash and work :when called upon, are as follows: | Committee on arrangements—J.

Bemidji, Minn., Nov. 26, 1912, Dear Friend: As in former years at this time of Thanksgiving, we have asked our friends for aid to help us carry on our work of caring for the sick poor, who have no means to defray their hospital expenses, so this year again appeal to our friends for cotnribu- tions of money, eatables, blankets, night dresses, etc., as they“choose.

It was some time ago that, acting upon the recommendations embodied in a report by a military commission, the French government reached the conclusion that the drum was no long- er a necegsary article of military equipment, The report set forth that the drum was a serious incumbrance in marching; that rain impaired its useftiness; that its calls could not be distinguished in time of battle; that it consumed a period of two years to turn out an efficient drummer, and that by abandoning the use of the drum many thousands of youths and men would be released for active service, Since the decision of the French government other European powers have followed its example in decree- ing that the “drum must go.” The history of the drum is both an- cient and honorable. The Egyptians employed it, and the Greeks ascribed its invention to Bacchus. The Spanish conqueror Pizarro is said to have found drums in South America tem- ples, The snakes of Ireland, we are told, fled from the Emerald isle be- fore the drum beats of St. Patrick. The Puritans of New England used | the drum as a church bell, and it figured frequently and romantically all through our wars of the Revolu tion and the Civil war. = { BIRD THAT KEEPS A SLAVE| Frigate-Bird Forces the Booby-Bird to Supply Fish for His Dinner. The booby-bird never leaves the broad seas, where his harsh ecry is heard from the Hebrides to the Faroes and from the clifts of Scot- land to the coast of Norway. He re- vels in the storms and screams above | the roar of the sea. The booby has green feet, yellow eyes, and a defiant head covered with a yellow cap Each of its wings is three feet long and ita beak is so stiff and so strong that) it fears no enemy but the frigate-bird, The frigate-bird is the terror of the| birds of the sea, though he ignores! all but the booby. Owing to the| breadth of his wings, the frigate can- not fish; he is forced to remain in the air. But as he cannot get fish in the air, and as he requires flsh‘ for his nourishment, he presses the! booby into his service. When hungry he swoops down upon the booby and; gives it a vigorous thrust in its throat, the fish caught in it drops out. The frigate has only to give one peck at the booby's throat to get his dinner. It happens occasionally that the frigate 'has pothing in its mouth.. When the fri- gate pecks in vain, he belabors his slave with his beak and drives him, bruised and terrified, into the sea ta catch fish. Life ‘Without Microbes. I The oft-debated question as to ‘whether there can be life without mi- crobes is held to have been solved by M. Michel Cohendy of the Pasteur in- stitute of Paris, who has reared live little connecting bars. The same idea can be carried cut by using for the! gag quite free from microbes. By the head a little silhouette portrait, made| yge of an by posing the subject against a bright taking a snapshot. A camera taking a picture two inches by three is large enough and the whole head should be less than an inch. Take geveral pic-| tures until a good outline is obtained. A baby’s head is exquisite and done in silver would be a beautiful scarfpin. For such a pin have only the head without an encireling rim. A mother’s baby’s head in gold would make a pendant that would be a great treas- ure.

She had a dimple in each cheek—a deep, dainty, loving, kissable, delicious dimple. “Ah!” exclaimed the young fool, “how I wish I had dimples like that;” and he reached out his hand and pat- ted them' softly. The maiden smiled until the dim- ples were a hundred times lovelier than before, and the youth was com- pletely captured. He took her for; drives-in the park. Then he took her to a hotel and treated her to a din- ner such as visiting princes indulgeI in at the expense of the government. Next they went to the theater and oc- cupied a box, and after that they sought out a cozy cafe. And since then he has had two dim- ples, two deep, cavernous, empty dim- ples, one in each side of his purse, and they will stay there until next pay day. Stone Microbes. The. decay of building stones, ac- cording to more than one authority, is oot due to wind dction or other sur- face influence, but to internal disin- tegration resembling wood rot, and this is ascribed by some to a low or- ganism like the fungi and the molds that cause the decay of vegetable sub- stances. A cure has been found for the stone disease, or at least a form of treats ment that diminishes its ravages.

His apparatus served in the first place as an incu- bator for hatching the eggs and then as a chamber where the chickens are able to live as long as may be de- sired. M. Cohendy kept the chickens in his apparatus for 45 days, and the contents of their digestive organs, blood and so on, were found to be frea from microbes. Those that were kept alive did not seem to suffer at all from being transferred to the germ-laden atmosphere, for they grew up success- fully. Machine to Write Music, A German musician has invented a machine which, he states, automatic- ally registers the notes emitted by the piano. The new machine has the same object as one invented by an Italian and used by Mascagni in writ- ing his operas, but it is a larger in- strument and is operated by elec- iricity. Into the machine is inserted a roll of paper, and the composer seats himself before the piano and executes the composition that he de- sires to give to the public. The ma- chine faithfully registers every note produced, so that the musician does not have to depend upon his memory, —Harper's Weekly, Herons Most Affectionate Birds. .

The herons never omitted this affectionate salutation. St. Petersburg’s Growth.

Hardly a day has passed that we have not heard expressions of con- fidence in this store; hardly a day has passed without bringing us new pa- trons; always there has been the feel- : ing with customers that they could se- eure better values right here in this store than by going ouiside, or risking the disappointments incident to mail order buying. We have always sought to treat our people fairly, giving them the best values possible and standing, personally, back of ever article sold. That the people appreciate Our efforts gives us Real cause for THANKSGIVING _This confidence of our patrons has enabled us to go into the wholesale markets with greater assurance and buy more liberally and generously of the best in men’s apparel so that we are prepared to show you a most tempting array of Fine Clothing and an amazing collection of the season’s newest haberdashery. We have planned to make this store the one best Christmas store in Bemidji in which to buy gifts for men. We want you to come in and see how well we have succeeded in our efforts to please you. b Gill Brothers Bemidji, Minn, READ THE PIONEER WANT ADS
