' i You have heard of the postal zoning system. It isa scheme by which the distance of a town from New York in- creases the expense of transporting magazines and newspapers to it from the metropolis. It is a part, and perhaps a necessary part of the revenue program. The further a town is situated from New York the less effectually is it-served with periodicals on which it has depend- -ed to keep it in touch with vital developments in our national life. Communities like ours are the bone and sinew of the body politic, and we depend on metropolitan distributing centers for the links which bind us to similar communities and to the - great republic of which we are all a part. - : The Pioneer will do its share in plugging the gap. We undertake this duty in no spirit of presumption, but in humble . appreciation of the privilege which the responsibility confers, with a firm resolve to avoid any change in our fundamental character. It is our aim at all times to maintain the best qual- ities of a country newspaper, reflecting in every printed line the sterling spirit and individual quality of the district which it is our privilege to serve. Our - connection with metropolitan services enables us to keep our readers posted on the latest developments. in:-state and national policies, as well as in our relationships with those other peoples to whom the links of federation bind us ever more tightly in our struggle to make world-democracy an abid- ing fact. 2 S INES B ; FIVE MILLION FREIGHT-CARS. ‘An American soldier’s food, clothing and war supplies for one year would fill a freight-car. A million and a quarter men already in Europe. A million and a quarter cars to haul their necessaries to Atlantic ports. There will soon be two million. Perhaps five. Five mil- lion carloads. How many million more to fill contracts with our Allies? 4 : Would any patriot add needlessly to the burden of the Government in administering the railroads? Would he order from mail-order houses anything that he could get at home? - There is very little bought by mail that cannot be bought right here. While helping the nation you can help to boost our home town. ’ 2 —_— ; According to the Kelliher Journal, they had a rousing school election in that village. The paper states that the only voter outside the board members, the principal and janitor, was Mrs. T. S. Thompson, and then goes on to.say “This shows how much interest the people of Kelliher take in the business man- agement of the school.” To us, it seema that the people are satisfied with the present management. i () o The Little Giant shows, which are in Bemidji this week at the ball park under the auspices of the Battalion band, seems to be a distinct novelty. Usually a carnival company attempts to “WORK” the farmers, but 32 of the Little Giant shows when at Moorehead went out one day last week and worked FOR the farmers, then turned the money over to the Red Cross chapter. - SIS The Kelliher Journal contains an account of the car owned by County Commissioner “Bill” Lennon going on a rampage in his garage and caving outwardly one side of the garage and knocking out the southwest corner of the garage window. All that happened to the Ford was a slightly bent fender. T a NN AT THE THEATERS llllllllllllllllilllIIIIIIIIHIIII’!IIIIIIIII| ‘GRAND TONIGHT.

At the Rex tomorrow will be pre- sented Dorothy Phillips and an all- star cast in “The Grand Passion,” a thrilling drama. - “The Powder Plant is going!” is the ominious yell of the mob.
