6 MISS CARSON HEADS GRADUATES; HIGHEST AVERAGE EVER MADE To Miss Dorothy Carson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G. E. Carson, falls the honor of being the valedictorian of the Bemidji high school graduat- ing class of 1917, while the saluta- torian will be Miss Milre Achenbach. The achievement of Miss Carson as a student meriting the honor of standing at the head of her class is intensified when it is known that her average of 92.8 for the four years of her high school course is the high- est in the history of the school. The average for the four years of Miss Achenbach is 91.8, one point below the average of Miss Carson. It is the intention of Miss Carson to attend Carleton college this fall and will finlsh her education at the University of Minnesota. MAN WOULD DESERT FAMILY; IS ARRESTED William Gates is in the city jail, trying to figure out. Bjll didn’t mean to figure in but that’s just what hé did all right, all right, when he conceived the ided of bringing lis wife and children to Bemidji from Walker, leaving them at Mrs. Gates' parental home in the Fifth ward and then making him- eelf scarce. He got through with the early stages of the plan when he brought his wife and four children to Bemidji. Then he absented him- eelf for a day, yesterday. Last eve- ning he came back from nowhere and was going some placé after he had secured a few articles of clothing from where his wife and babies were staying, but Chief Ripple had been notified and when he arrived at the house the chief grabbed Bill and he went to jail for hearing before Judge Gibbons this morning. Judge Gibbons, after hearing the facts in the matter, ordered Gates to eontribute $30 per month to the sup- port of his wife and children, the latter all being under eight years of age, or go to the county jail for 90 days. Being unable to obtain bond to guarantee the payment of the stipulated monthly sum, Gates is in the city jail. If he goes to the coun- ty jalil it is said he will again be sent back on the same charge of attempt- ed wife and child abandonment.
