Whether in the past our legislators have not considered a conviction of this offense sufficiently serious to deprive a man of his car license; or whether it has never been considered- ser- iously by.them, we are not in position to state. - However, as the number of automobiles in use is increasing- daily, and the menace-of the intoxicated driver is increasing-in the same pro- portion, we think it is high time that the matter should have the serious consideratiom of our law makers. Any man, whether a chauffeur or an owner, -who will drive an automobile while intoxicated, deserves the sympathy of no one, and, if after a fair trial, is convicted of the offense, should not be allowed at the wheel of any car for at 'least a year’s time, and we doubt whether it would be wise, even then, to give him another opportunity to commit the same offense and probably kill or maim for life some innocent pedestrian or driver of another-car. © P3e | IT'S THE STUFF THAT COUNTS—NOT"LOOKS " | Next week will be baby week, when Bemidji’s youngsters: .nder five years will -be weighed and measured to ascertain -“‘their physical status. It is an educational project of national scope for 'the improvement of citizenship,-we believe, and it seems as if it possessed some real merit, having-in mind the development of a healthy and vigorous body: Once in a while we hear of a baby show, where prizes are awarded for the “most beautiful baby” etc. Fond mothers will doll some Emerson looking specimen all up like a prize spitz poodle ‘and- doting and gushing judges will give him the blue ribbon as a prize winner. A few years later he will be. wearing baggy short pants, a white waist, a flowing tie, long hair, tortoise shell rimmed spectacles and carrying a music roll down the avenue. While in some obscure corner of ‘the town there will be some red-blooded, - -husky youngster, ‘growing - into bodily vigor with no trimmings and by the time he has out- grown some of his effervescence he will be on his way toward success and of some use in the van of his community, a man respected and looked up to by his associates as-a REAL one. You can’t tell by the looks of a frog how far he can jump. _ 00— THE SCARCITY OF LABOR It will be harder, perhaps, for the farmer than for any other class of people to adapt himself to the labor shortage, because his most important work is seasonable. Business houses have .already been seriously crippled by so many of their men being called into service, but they are bravely adjusting their plants to conditions, by employing older men, or training women for these positions.. This shortage will, of course, be felt on the farms this year, for aside from the draft, war industries are hiring all men available. Wherever it is possible to use machinery on the farms, in place of hand labor, this should be done. If one man is unable to meet this expense, for machinery is usually expensive, then by combining farmers can effect the same result. It will mean co-operation all along the line this year—it will mean helping |§ each other in various ways—but all this is a part of the debt we must cheerfully pay in a world war of the magnitude we are now waging. 0 . A SOLID CHUNK OF WISDOM * The Saturday Evening Post sounds the keynote in the com- ing elections in the following solid chunk of wisdom: “Tt is better to keeb ten men out of office on suspicion than to let one traitor in.” We will do well to take this truth to heart. Americans can not afford to elect any man to power upon whose complete loyalty there can rest even the faintest shadow of suspicion or doubt. The country has more than enough leaders of proved loyalty, and their services should be secured: - Ability and loyalty should be the only tests. Upon these two qualities in gur nation’s leaders hangs our destiny in the days that are be- ore us. Etee S cgoee oy THE 1918 BEMIDJI' HIGH SCHOOL SENIOR CLASS Bemidji has sent into the world another graduating class. Bemidji has given the members the best she had in providing an education for the young men and young women who re- ceived their hard earned diplomas. Bemidji has done all this and it is now up to the graduates to do with what Bemidji has given. Some of the graduates will attend higher seats of learning. Some will be compelled to be denied this, perhaps, advantage Wherever their paths may lead, we feel confident that the Sen- jor class of 1918, Bemidji high school, will reflect credit and honor to themselves, to their alma-mater and their home-eity: UNSANITARY| w27 A _POGUE’S OLD BARN, Cor. 3rd St. and Irvine Avenue. . ‘.
