P. Chandler Bu- midji loses a most valued friend. ‘While Mr. Chandler had made this city his home only daring the sum- mer months, having a cottage at La- vinia, he had planned on making his permanent residence here. He was confident of the agricultural pos- sibilities of this section and his ex- periments along orchard lines were very successtal. St. Thomas college, located mid- way between the twin cities, is fast forging to the front as one of the chief educational institutions of the country. A few years ago this Catho- lic school was practically unknown, but has since become one of the lead- ing military schools of the United States and its enrollment ranges around the eight hundred mark. In athletics the Merriam Park college is always on top, as is the case in scholarship. Its latest move is to complete arrangements for the erec- tion of a $75,000 combination armory and club house This evening Bemidji’'s Athletic club basketball five will battle for the championship of the world, the Fond du Lac quint of Wisconsin playing here. It is the first tim= that a team of this city has ever hal honor of fighting for the world's title, and even should the boys lose there will be no dishonor attached to the defeat. The Fond du Lac boys are wonders on the basketball floor, and not a follower of the game should miss- this opportunity of witnessing the greatest aggregation of basket tossers of the day perform. Three games will be played, tonight, Fri- day and Saturday. Turn out and assist the boys by your support, they are deserving of it. - TR KK KK KK KKK K KKK * EDITORIAL EXPLOSIONS * HHK KKK KKK KKK K KKK Whereever there is a big exposition there you will find Minnesota pro- ducts in competition with all other states of the union, and the fact that the Minnesota produces always bring home the prizes in bringing many settlers to this grand state of oppor- tunity for all.—Aurora News: —_—e— The Cottonwood Current says a “black horse” may carry off the hon- ors at the elimination convention.

Practical Fashion Hints By Alice Gibson Just the thing for the school girl is this plain little frock with its drop- shoulder blouse and plain, three-piece ekirt. It could be made up appropri- ately in serge, ratine or silk; for a lttle later in the season, cotton crepe, eponge or a voile would be dainty and practical. The back extends over the shoulder in yoke effect and there is a draped, Japanese collar to give a new touch. This collar is attached to an inset vest and would be becoming made of a softly colored material, repeating somewhat, the general shade of the frock; the cuffs could also be of this contrasting stuff and the crushed girdle of velvet or ribbon. It is quite a fad now to have the col- lar and often the cuffs too, of a sheer organdy; when this is done it is wise to arrange the collar so that it may easily be removed and replaced with a fresh one. To make this dress for a girl of six- teen, 414 yards of 36 inch material is required. The pattern is cut in 4 sizes; 14, 16, 17 and 18. This Is a Perfect Pattern. Be sure to give correct size, measur- ing over the fullest part of the bust for dimensions.

Deafness is caused by .an inflamed con- dition of the mucous lining of the Eus- tachian Tube.

Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be tak- en out and this tube restored to its nor- mal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an in- flamed condition of the mucous surfaces. ‘We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of deafness (caused by ca- tarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Cnnu'rh Cure.

PLAYGROUNDS IN STREETS, UEL A Washington Has Been Following, a Plan Successful In European Cities. There {s a° movement on foot in Washington among those interested in the welfare of the school children which bids fair to solve in many in- stances the problem of lack of play- ground during their recesses for -the pupils of the public schools, a problem which, owing to the neglect of- the school authorities of' former years to provide sufficient space for the increas- ed number of scholars, has in many cases become a most serious one. The solution of the trouble. as pro- vided by the movement, is to appropri- ate a certain portion of the street dur- ing the recess time. At the outset the method of ciosing & public street against vehicles for ten or fifteen min- utes during the busy portion of the day seemed impracticable,.but on limit- ing ‘the .application only - to, those schools that are not in crowdell busi- ness sections and applying it specially to those in the residence uarter— where, indeed, most of the scholars are—it has been found.that. as far as removing any objections that can be project is feasible. The proposed plan-is to set aside a block of the street roadway during the recess time by means of ropes that can be readily adjusted to poles set in the curb in a few seconds. The barrier could thus be erected or removed by some of the older pupils almost in- stantly. It would not extend across the sidewalk. The matter of ‘making to dwellers within the inclosed area some compen- sation was found readily adjustable by a plan of granting them certain privi- leges over other blocks. Thusa great- er number of street lights, a more thorough police supervision.. the keep- ing of the sidewalk and roadway in a Scene in Anthony and Cleopatra, in eight parts to be shown at the Crand Theatre, 2 Nights and Sunday Matinee Sunday, Monday, March 15, 16 mediato remioval by the. city of ail Matinee at 2:30 p. m.
