SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1917. THE BEMIDJI Coming Events ' "County commissioners meet Feb- ryary 13. City election, February 20. ‘B. A. C. CLUB FEASTS Covers were laid for 29 at the B. A. C. club banquet in the basement of the Presbyterian church last eve- ning. The tables were prettily dec- orated for the occasion, the decora- tions and favors being in red, white and blue. F. B. Lamson acted as tphstmaster and Tom Simons, presi- ent of the club, responded, speaking WM of the good work the club was doing ~and the good they were getting out of the meetings. He also thanked all those who had helped them to ar- range for the banquet. Addresses were given by W. L. Brooks of the Northern National bank and Dr. E. H. Marcum. Mr. Brooks spoke on banking and told the boys about the principal of economy. He asked the boys present how many of them had savings accounts and was surprised to find that three-fourths of them had. ' Dr. Marcum gave a talk on na- ture study, and spoke of how partic- ularly adapted this country was to that study, having such a large as- sortment of birds, insects, ete. Both h talks were extremely interesting and the boys paid the closest attention to the speakers. At the close of the .. evening the members of the club gave : their various “yells.” A number of young people enjoyed a sleigh ride last evening. In the party were Edla Rudy, Alice Camer- on, Elsie Shannon, Lucile Cota, Mar- garet Klein, Leona Ritchie, Leona Carlton, Lorraine Kreatz, Joe Cush- ner, John Henry, Philip Denu, Clar- ence Charboneau, John Koors, Harry Steenstrup and Louis Brown.

Gilmore, 905 Lake Boulevard. Its timliness warrants it space for the ambitious young miss, who naively informs the editor of the Pioneer that her ambi- tion is to become a writer. Its title was submitted with the article: g In a large city store on the valen- tine counter the valentines were talking. *‘Do you know what day- tomorrow is?” asked the Biggest Valentine— a pround beauty. “Why, how could we forget our own day?"” timidly said the Littlest Valentine. The Biggest Valentine drew aer- self up proudly. “Some people are born to inter- fere,” she said. The Littlest Valentine’s eyes filled with tears. The Biggest Valentine walked away disdainfully muttering, “I think that people ought to know enough not to talk to people above them.” Just then a beautifully gowned lady came in. “This way, lady,” said the clerk and at once showed her the Biggest - Valentine. After inspecting several others she chose them as well as the proud beauty. All this time the Lit- tlest Valentine watched wistfully, but it was not until late in the day that she was noticed at all. As the evening shadows were falling a lit- tle tired, shabbily dressed woman came to the counter. .After reading the different verses on the valentines, she finally chose the Littlest Valen- tine. In the meantime, the Biggest Valentine found herself in a beau- tiful room with many other valen- tines. For a time she was the fa- vorite but soon the little maid lo whom she belonged grew tired of her and finally she found herself in a scrap bag, longing for the days of her heauty and popularity. When she had begun to feel that life was not worth living she heard a voice say, “Mrs. Jones, you can take the scrap bag home and you may find something of use to you.” When she again saw the light of day, she found herself in a small but very neat and clean room. She could gaze about unobserved since she was still covered by some of the seraps from the rich lady‘s secrap bag. On a bed lay a pale litte girl, sewing and singing, and at times talking. She saw no one else and wondered to whom she could be talk- ing, when she heard a tiny voice say, “I am sure, Alice, that none of the other valentines found such a happy home as I.” The voice sounded fa- miliar. “Well, if I have made you happy you surely made me happy, little val- entine, and I love you dearly,” said the little girl on the bed. H Just then Mrs. Jones entered the room and asked her little daughter if she had been, lonely. “Oh. no, mother,” she cried. “The little valentine has been such good i company.” Her mother laughed and patted | her daughter and said, “Well, now we'll see what's in the scrap bag.” The first thing she came to was the | DAILY PIONEER HAYDEN SCHOOL OF MUSIC Telephone 816-W MISS FANCHION HAYDEN 3 Instructor : : Over Beltrami Music Store : Mrs. Oscar Krantz returned this week from Puposky where she has been the guest of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Workman, for several days.
