(United Press Staff Correspondent) London.—(By Mail to New York.) -Among the many heroes of the war The Collier’s Reply. Collier's Weekly editorially makes the following comment concerning the many objections brought forth by its prize story, “The Hospital Ticket,” in which Bemidji played so " prominent a part: One of the best magazine stories published in 1914 was James W. Fitz- patrick's prize story in Collier’s call- ed “The Hospital Ticket.” If_ we weren’t so busy praising German ac- tivities, we should like to print on this page some of the letters we have had about this story, including the indignant one asserting that the man who wrote it is no author at all, but (so perfect is the local color) a “‘woods boss.”” “The Hospital Ticket,” written about lumber-camp life in the good old, rough times, has for its seene a town in Minnesota—Bemidji —and now listen to the Bemidji “Pio- | | neer: i Collier’'s Weekly, in publishing H the five-hundred-dollar prize I story, “The Hospital Ticket,” { i il dealt Bemidji a severe blow and in a most unjust manner, and its editor should not delay in in- forming subscribers, and they total about one million, of the true conditions which now sur- | round this ecity. Come, brother, do not be like the rest of them. It seems to be impos- sible for anyone to write a good story and give it a local place and habita- tion without stepping on tender toes. Why be offended because Mr. Fitzpatrick tells about “Tickle-the- Wood-Box'" and his fish-berry knoek- out drops? It is a good story, isn’t it? Several of those “one million” subseribers never heard of Bemidji at all till Mr. Fitzpatrick came through with his story, so have a heart! However, according to the ‘“Pioneer,” the Bemidji of today has ‘“‘paved streets, beautiful lakes, won- derful scenic surroundings and sub- stantial homes and business blocks,” and has been selected “as the proper place for a Sixth Normal School.” Be- midj today is dry. So much the bet- ter for the editor of the “Pioneer’” and the editor of the ‘Sentinel”— but will Bemidji ever be the scene of another story half so exhilarating as “The Hospital Ticket.” Sherman’s Plan. Fred D. Sherman, immigration commissioner, has decided that there are three things needed to keep Min- nesota in the front rank as a public- ity bureau to entice immigrants to the state. He will make three recommenda- tions to the legislature, as follows: That $100,000 be appropriated each year for the department in- stead of $35,000. That county farm census. That real estate dealers be li- censed. The increased appropriation is needed, Mr. Sherman said, so that the state can do more advertising and give more exhibitions at county fairs throughout the country. The depart- ment sends out thousands of pamph- lets telling prospective settlers of b Minnesota’s greatness and an adver- g tising car is sent through the country for the same purpose. To increase the range of these advertising meth- ods and make them more valuable to the state, more money is needed, he said. i In suggesting the farm enu, Mr. : i i assessors take Sherman said the state should have a record of all farm values, yields to the acre and acreages of various | crops. If the assessors get this in- formation in the spring it could be tabulated before fall and made ready for use. Kansas has such a law as is suggested by Mr. Sherman, and it should be successful here.

The Royal Lancasters have been continually on the firing line since the outbreak of the war, and with every man performing prodigies of valor it was difficult to single. out particular acts of courage. Heaney’s chance came one day when ‘the situa- tion as regards food supplies for his division was becoming desperate. For ten whole days the roads from the trenches to the supply depot had been rendered impassable by the hail of shells rained upon by the enemy, and no fresh provisions could be got to the troops on the firing line. Heaney went to his major and of- fered to take the wagons through the rain and shells, and bring back food. He did not say he would try. He said he would go and fetch the provi- sions. The major said “impossible,” and when he persisted, ‘“‘sheer mad- ness.” Nevertheless, the sergeant was allowed to take a few comrades and with the wagons he set off down the shell-torn-track. Four miles sep- arated the trenches from the depot, and every yard of the way there and back lay under a devasting fire, but Heaney got through and brought back provisions with a loss of only two horses killed and one man wounded. He was promoted to lieutenant on the spot, and recomraended for the D. C. M., but two days later he was killed in action at Le Trouquet.

K. Hammond, of the Cold- stream Guards, describing 23 awful| days his regiment spent in the tren- ches. “Not a man cared a tinker’s cuss for -the German shells and bul- lets, but to stand for days—twenty- three to be exact—at a stretch, in water, not only up to your ankles, but more often above your knees, takes a lot of stuffing out of you. ““We dropped into a terrible place about a month ago. No matter|. whether it was fine or wet, the water kept trickling into the trenches. As fast as we tried to drain our trenches they filled up again with the water that oozed through the hillside. Life in these trenches has been damnable; materials is needed. used to when pushed. Offiicers: were tired the same as ourselves and| as they took it as part of the. game, we did likewise. Our officers had re- christened the battalion. He has named us the ‘amphibious brigade,’ and says'when he gets home he will back us up against any battalion in the British army or any other army, for feats of endurance under any condition anyone likes to name. You can take it from me that our officers, and there is not a man in the whole brigade of Guards but what would have endured have been shared by the ERE are two ways to make a sweet-: smelling . toilet and bath soap.
