Or, one could go from Baudette to a point near Intérnational Falls on the border in XKoochiching county, thence southwestward down to Be- midji. It would mean that practi- cally the entire c¢ounty of Beltrami would be void of any highway such as suggested, while it is noted that the southern portion of the state*is heavily webbed with the highway as planned.

A. secretary in an English camp. “That is the curfew,” the secretary explained, and went on to tell what the curfew is. “Do you mean to say that these folks are supposed to ring off every night at half-past eight?” the sol- dier questioned in amazement. “Gee, I'll say they are dead around here !fini; of the time and asleep the other alf.” A few days later the same dough- boy returned and hailed the ‘“Y* sec- retary delightedly. “Say,” he chuckled, ““do you know what?
