If there is one American institution in which " 426t1 politics should have no place, it is in our institutions of learning.

He may have instituted most worthy movements and may have been successfully carrying them out, but this weighs not at all with the politiclans who control his actions by virtue of their board memberships. He must give place to another, selected many times through partisanship or by favoritism. The consequence is that whatever good work he has secomplished is often abandoned and an entirely different course mapped out, with the result that the school gets nowhere and accomplishes noth- ing of & permanent nature. ,- ‘No school will acquire any permanency or weight in its community where ‘such shifting policy is in practice. Rather, we should say that such shiftless lack of policy. Succeseful schools require. time and labor to build up. A permanent policy must be” established and adhered to. The influential schools of the country, both free and private, are the result: of-years of patient ef- fort and steadfastly adhering to a settled policy. 1 you would have a school of which you can be proud, form settled plans for it, select the right head and put him in charge, and then keep him and loyally support him. Any other course is a waste of time end effort. FUNERAL DIRECTOR M. E.

With the going down of the mill practically 450 men were thrown out ‘of employment, many of them highly skilled mechanics and all men of the right sort for any community, and men Bemidji cannot afford to lose. But the announcement of Superintendent Day that the company would not allow a man to suffer on .account of the tragedy but that all would be taken care of with employment sheds @ bright ray of hope for all concerned. It is making the best of an unfortunate occurrence for which there was no help and the men unquestionably will look the mats | ter squarely in the face and smile—they are of that calibre—looking to the time when affairs will again be righted and they are once more back at their places again in a brand new structure, the latest and most modern. | The action of the company is to be commended. It cannot be too strongly commended. The act of loyalty and what it means cannot be analyzed in cold type. There is that “something” which cannot be de- scribed. The company will send many of the men to other plants al ex- penses paid and bring them back when the new mill is erected. It is not an act of charity, it is loyalty to as highly efficient a set of employes to be found anywhere, loyal to their employers. Bemidji cannot afford for a moment to lose Crookston mill No. 1 nor can it afford for a moment to lose any one of those who manned the plant. Combined, they are a big part of Bemidji, and a valuable part. And we sincerely hope everything will soon again be as it was, when that mystery wave of flame swept its destructive path. DRY CLEANING Clothes Cleaners for Men, Women and Children Died of Premature Old Age! (BY V. M. PIERCE, M. D.) How many times we hear of compara- tively our:f persons passing away when ould have lived to 70 or 80 years of age. This fatal work is usually attributed to the kidneys, as, when the kidneys defignemte, it~ causes auto-in- toxication. The moreinjurious the poisons passing thru the kidne{sé the quicker will those noble or degenerated, and the sooner they decay. It is thus the wisest policy, to prevent premature old age and gron_mtae long life, to lighten the work of the kidneys. This can be done by drinking plenty of pure water all day long, and occasionally tak- ing a little Anuric before meals. This can be obtained at almost any store. Anuric will overcome such conditions a8 rheumatism, dropsical ewellings, cold ex- tremities, scalding and burning urine. and sleeplessness due to constant arising from bed at night.

Members of congress are complaining because Washington hotels and cafes are robbing them. They charge that they are required to pay $6 for a meal that can be purchased in London for $1.60. It hits them hard- @st where it counts the most—in the pocketbook. Bully! Soak 'em, Louie! Pile it on and pick ’em to the bone! It gives us poor devils who are writhing in the strangling grasp of food speculators an opportunity to laugh, to howl, to literally double up and shriek in unrestrained glee. The fact that the food pirates are robbing the people blind does mnot bother the average gentleman in Washington, but when the pirate creeps into Washington and picks the congressional pocket Mr. Congressman roars like a stuck pig. It’s great sport to see congressmen gulping down their own medicine once in awhile. Go to it! Soak ’em again, and soak ’em hard! Jailing traitors and alien enemies is quite proper and should be done in every case, but we’d like to see the cusses put to work and made to earn their keep. Taxing loyalty to feed disloyalty does not appeal to us. Don’t bank too much on the smiles and kisses you are going to get from the French lassies, son. The fighting is done in the trenches, and not on the boulevards of Paris. . It is becoming apparent to any school boy that the more congress talks about food control the less it knows of what it is talking about. 1 have taken the Anuric but a short 3 time, but am now feelm'pedg fine.
