Down in Kansas the other day a man was stricken with a fatal'melody, according to a newspaper heading. Duluth opens its heart to the poor in that ecity by giving upwards of $200,000 annually to worthy causes. e Another unusual incident—Trin- dad, Col., Aug. 26.—Miners and offi- cials joined in a picnic here today. John H. Koop, Breainerd’s oldest merchant, is dead. He was.formerly alderman, mayor and postmaster of that city. And still the price of print paper goes up-and papers all over the coun- try are reducing their size and in- créasing their prices. St..Louis is wailing that. the Demo- cratic party still owes §15,000 .for convention expenses in that city, says the Detroit Free Press. Another broken promise. Beginning today the Pioneer will print a daily sport feature. This feature is in charge of H. C. Ham- ilton, United Press correspondent, an experienced sport writer. The. Wadena Pioneer Journal has started.a good movement for Bemidji people to follow. It is this: “On the Jefferson :Highway.” Put these words. on all your stationery. It.will advertise.the city favorably. No shortages were found in any of the state departments during .the past week. It is to be hoped that the returns of all the shortages are now in and it is hoped that a better system of accounting will be in- stalled. Things to boost for: Bemidji Dress Up Week, September 20 to October 7. Beltrami County Fair, September 13, 14, 15. Red Lake Indian Fair, September 21, 22, 23. Asa Wallace, editor of the Sauk Center Herald, has announced him- self ‘as candidate for chief clerk of the house of representatives at the next session of the legislature. Asa is qualified for the position and we believe that the house members could not make a much better choice. ‘With the completion of this ses- sion congress will have made a new record of expenditures. The appro- priations of this session, including authority given to award contracts, pass the enormous total of $2,000,- 000,000. The appropriations for this session will exceed those of-the last session by $515,000,000 and those of the last year of the Taft ad- ministration by $600,000. ‘NEW YORK'S' TROUBLES. New York sure -does have a bunch of troubles, First it was a street car strike and. now it is.the threat- ened railway-strike. Then .the..wig.makers struck. and now .the barbers are on the strike. Now only men whose.wives are ©x- perts with the-seissors.and a. ‘bowl.can find relief from:superfluous .hirsute adornment.:Peffer -whiskers are :com- ing into style.. ‘There is;a very.anx- jous demand for safety razers which will give a quick scrape with the least pain. —_— - PARENTS' ORGANIZATION.

Parents, ndwadays, appear to take too little interest in school affairs and in city affairs. As long as the children appear to be-going to'schoel and nothing is'said’ of-school ‘affairs, the parent dees:not scemto care. For:someitime past there-has.mot been a citizen at a meeting of the school board unless that citizen want- ed something or wanted.to oppose some: thing:'coming ‘before:the board. At that .there has not besn over:-one or two citizens at any meeting. ‘Why not attend -the school board meetings, Mr. and Mrs. Parent? Be- ccme interested in school affairs and it will be for the betterment of the schools. The more interest and co- operation shown by the parents, the more than can be accomplished by the school board. The same lack of interest may be called attention to in regard to city affairs. Citizens neglect meetings iof the city council unless they are in want of something. A little ‘more interest in regard to city affairs by the citizens would greatly assist the council, ) Turn over a new leaf, Mr.:and'Mrs. Citizen, and take an interest in the city and school affairs. KRKHEKEKK K KKK KKK KKK * SPORT NEWS * AR RS RS EE S0 LS RS By H. C. Hamilton (United Press Staff Correspondent) New York, Aug. 26.—St. Louis, be- sides being the alleged hottest place 1 the world where they play base- ball, can claim-one. more: distinetion. Included in the ranks of her two. ma- jor league baseball clubs are two of the game’s most-brilliant and ver- satile performers. With George Sisler outclassing all rivals as a utility man in the Amer- ican league, his fellow citizen, Roger Hornsby of the Cardinals leads all opposition in the National organiza- tion. Hornsby, who is playing his first year as a big leaguer, has played all fcur positions in the infield and has dene mighty well at it. Of late he has been pracing around first base, but he has done most of his: playing at first base and shortstop. He .is said to be some shucks as a catcher, too, but so far there has been no need for him to don wind-pad and mask. Sisler, besides being a .star per- former at first base, is a great-out- fielder, and can pitch a bangup game. His fork-hand style-of throwing the ball handicaps him .some as an in- fielder, but a short.time:ago he went to third when Jimmy Austin was laid up and turned in a perfect field- ing game. Sisler, a college product, never played a minor league game. He is spending his second season in the big show. Each of these stars is a batting plhenom of no mean ability. Horns- Ly: since the start of the season, has not fallen below: the :300'mark, while Sisler is cracking the ball right.close to ithat and probably will:go .over it before the close.of the:season. There isn’t a man in either:league who can compare with these twomar- vels as a utility man. Joe Tinker, manager of the Cubs, is about through looking for ishert- stops. Tinker. declared a few -days ago he is:thinking seriously: of .get- ting back into the game himself. This js about the third similar announce- ment Tinker has: made.this season. Bill Donovan has -aceomplished wonders with the Yankees. He is certain to be retained for next-year: James: C.
