Governor lmrmuuw[ has issued the annual Thanksgiving day proclama- tion, setting aside Thursday, Nov. 30, i accord with President Wilson's proclamation for ocbservance of the holiday. The governor urges all Minnesotans to observe it as “a day for appropriate expression of their thankfulness to the beneficient Cre- ator for the many ble 1gs vouch- safed to them during the last year.” BIG BUSINESS. “Big Busine, controls the Uni- versity of Minnesota, al the Minnesota Union of the merican Society of Equity. The society at a mecting in St. Paul passed a reso- Iution asking for legislation which will abolish the present system of ap- pointing the regents of the univer- sity and asking for the election of the r nts by the people, one from each ngressional district We prediet it the movement will have a short lite EGGS. A\ nation-wide movement among restaurant | pers, and others cater- to the public to take e off the 1 oecards, inoa tight against cold rmen, is proposed by St. Paul hotel and r irant keepers Cold storage men declare that eggs may 0 to 31 per dozen before spring To combat this the hotel and restaur- nt keepers will also be asked to keep off thefr tables and to prepare dishes that do not require eggs in their makeup. This might be the h. c. | cne way to fight ICONOCLASM. There is a demand in certain sec tions of the eastern states to substi- in the reading course of the modern books in place of the classies which have so long and so successfully held sway, The only surprise in this matter is that it has not come sooner. It is really a marvel that anything bear- ing the stamp of age and established nsage should have so long escaped tite high schools, the blows of the modern iconoclast. We are well acquainted with the element from which this demand springs. They are the typical ex- ponents of “Modernity."” They know that wisdom begins with their generation. They think with a tolerant pity of such men as Milton, Shakespeare, Scott and others as having been deprived of the many advantages they, themselves, enjoy. The wisdom of Solomon is as the bab- bling of a fool to them. It would be interesting, though, to know what these reformers would subgtitute for the desplsed classics, what, for instance, would take the ¢ of such of Shakespeare's works he Merchant of Venice,” *“Ju- ling Ceasar,” ““Macheth’ and others? Would “Mr. Dooley” and others of his i1k be the substitutes? Possibly these would-be reformers have lost sight of the two-fold mis- ,slon of the classics in the present day reading course—the analytical exercise and the deep insight into human nature which these works im- part. What modern author has paint- ed ““Shylock” more true to life than has Shakespeare? Find, if you can, a more faithful portrayal of human passions than in ‘‘Macbeth?" We must go on record as opposed to the iconoclasts who would destroy our old classic idols if they are not prepared to give us something bet- ter in their place. The old works have in the past turned out some in- tellectual giants—men who have in- delibly impressed their personality on their age. It our reformers will convince us that any modern substi- tutes can achieve even a tithe of the success of the old favorites, we shall be ready to listen with patience to their suggestions. PREPARE FOR SAILING OF CHRISTMAS SHIP (By United Press) New York, Nov. —Boxes, bales and bundles of supplies to form the cargo of the American Red Cross Christmas Relief ship for the benefit of Syrians were arriving at Red Cross Bush Terminal in Brooklyn today—the last day of their avail- ability. The relief ship is to sail for Beirut, Syria, about Dec. 1. The shipment will be chiefly clothing. I E R E R R SRR R SRR SR ¥ CROOKSTON LUMBER 0. * CAMP NO. 3_KELLIHER * fiiililii*fi!llfli’ H. A. Daigle of Mahnomen, a brother of the clerk at this camp, and Selim Madison of Bemidji spent a day and a half here, returning to their homes last Friday. Each got a deer. Jos. Larson, one of the bookkeep- ers at the Crookston Lumber com- pany's office, accompanied by a Mr. Hanson who works in the Bemidji postoffice, returned home, via North- ome, Wednesday. Both tried very hard to get a deer, but without suc- cess. Mr. and Mrs. Andy Larson and Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Rasmussen who are enjoying a vacation at old Camp No. 2 had dinner at this camp on Wednesday. The party has been suc- ul in getting some deer. ave Hodge, foreman on Steam Skidder No. 2, has resigned his posi- tion and left for Bemidji. His in- tentions are to join some of his old time friends who are now in the em- ploy of the company at Bend, Ore. D. McMillan, who scaled logs here a while last spring, will again con- tinue to scale here. S. L. Sellers is putting up a tele- phone line between old Camp No. and Camp No. 4 John Hoge and Olof Fett, who were employed here last winter, have again joined our forces. John Achenbach is with us for a few days again. A large roundhouse (built square, though) is being erected for the ac- commodation of the locomotives doing the work of Camps 3 and 4. Halvor Slind will replace Dave Hodge as foreman of Steam Skidder No. 2.

Catarrh being greatly influenced by constitutional conditions requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Medicine is taken internally and acts thru the Blood on the Mucous Sur- faces of the System thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, glving the patient strength by building up the con- stitution and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in the curative powers of Hall's Catarrh Medicine that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials. Address F.
