The salutation of “Happy New Year” has just ceased ringing in your ears, and gour New Year’s resolutions are all made and in order. Perhaps you have made up your mind to be more kindly this year; perhaps you have determined to be more economical; maybe on the contrary you have resolved to be more generous; possibly more industrious. . These, whatever they may be, are the individual good qual- | ities which you wish to gain. But there is one quality which we shall every one of us need very much through 1919, and s that is patience. We have just come to the end of a great war, for which we have all borne deprivations and made sacrifices, and natur- ally we are all very anxious to se2 the conditions of peace restored exactly as they used to be. But this will be a matter of time. It has taken time and infinite effort to prepare the country for war, and life will not lapse into its old lines in a moment. Y It will take time to bring our army home. It will take time for inflated war prices to go down to normal level. There will have to be slow readjustment of every kind, possibly some change in wages, and this cannot be hurried. We must continue to conserve food for starving Europe until the next harvest.| There will be a Victory loan, for our men must be supplied as hitherto until the army is comnletely mustered out. Now shall we all resolve to meet these conditions*with the utmost patience? All in favor signify by saying Aye. Contrary same sign. Resolution carried unanimously. Patience shall be our watchword for 1919. —0 ANOTHER AUTOCRATIC BURLESON EDICT. How much longer is that autocrat Burleson, postmaster general of the government, to be permitted to add burden after burden to the financially drained peoples of the country with his domineering tactics? The latest is his edict that will work a hardship on the people of Minnesota by increasing the phone toll rates from 100 to 300 per cent and he seems to be able to coerce the people in any manner in which he is pleased. Burleson is a Texas politician, in line with practically all of the president’s chief executives from the “solid south,” and his management of the postal affairs of the nation is one monu- mental joke. Soldiers have not had their mail for several months and there is a roar being heard to heaven. Domestic and local mail affairs are in a chaotic state with practically no service at all, a ‘catch-as-catch-can, hodgepodge regime, amateurish in every detail. The wires which he has been allowed to take over include those of the telegraph and telephone, another huge farce in managenient using the results as a criterion. There seems to be a studied attempt to hamper the public utilities of the nation and every time one has been taken over it has meant wretched service and added expense to the Liberty Loan buyers of the nation. And the people are getting heartily sick and tired of it all. i The last election, as the result of the president’s plea, it would seem, would show the incompetents the tendency of the g]'eop]e and in what direction the political wind was strongly owing. 0. WE HOPE THEY*BUILD IT. _We have often accused that Bemidji bunch of being willing to give us two feet for a yard any time, but if they will just go ahead with that proposition to knit a railroad from Kelliher to Baudette everything will be forgiven and we will fall on their necks.. County division, misunderstandings and kicks -would disappear like a two dollar bill in a city restaurant if that road were to be built. We could get acquainted with one another then.-——Baudette Region. ———0 CLASSY EDITIONS. The Bemidji Pioneer, the Hibbing Mesaba Ore and the Warren Sheaf all issued twenty-four page editions last week that mus; have produced yards of dollars for both merchants and publishers. The Region issued an edition that was about as full of advs. as the crown prince’s head is of brains.—Bau- dette Region. 0 If we know the good old U. S., the Christmas spirit will not go home to rest for another year. It will be actively with us through 1919. There was never more need of it. 0 | : You are doubtless provided with a beautiful new set of | New Year’s resolutions.

Ave. THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER MASQUERADES AS A PIE AND ESCAPES Max Schalk Gets Out of Tombs by Concealing Himself in Baker’s Wagon. Cloves a Microbe Killer. The odor of cloves has been known to destroy 'microbes in 82 minutes; cinnamon will kill some species in 12 minutes, thyme in~85 minutes. In 45 minutes commeon wild verbena is found effective, while .the odor of some geranium flowers has destroyed vari- ous forms of microbes in 50 minutes. The essence of cinnamon 18 sald:to de- stroy the typhold fever microbes in 12 minutes, and is recorded as the most effective of all odors as an antiseptic. Netg York.—Daring escapes . have been made from the Tombs by all sorts of methods. To Max Schalk goes the distinction of leaving. Warden Hanley's castle of culture by means of a ple wagon. Schalk, who had been transferred from the workhouse, was heaving coal in the courtyard of the Tombs. The big gates opened and in came a pastry cook’s wagon. The driver crossed the courtyard with a basket brimming with goodles, ples among them. It was known Schalk liked ples. Now listen to Warden Hanley: “I am not trying to deprive Schalk of any credit for his getaway, if he planned it. If he did, and nerve was water, he would be the Pacific ocean. Diamond Not Most Valuable. It 18 a popular error-to-suppose that the diamond 13 the most valuable of the precious stones.

FURNITURE_ AND UNDERTAKING H. N. M’KEE, Funeral Director PHONE 178-W or R ‘Why Have Colds? Y There is just one reason. The blood, kidneys, lungs and skin pores are often so-husy working to throw off poisons created by constipaticn that they -cannot, at the same -time, overcome ¢olds, too. "' i If you keep your system entirely free .from_ food-waste, it is a differ- ent story, for ‘then colds have no chance... But if you allow food-waste to remain in. the system it creates dangerous poisons which are absorbed into the blood and distributed all over your body. - Stop this grave danger.

It Climbed Into Wagon. My own idea s that Schalk was mot disguising gentus under’ a short hair- cut. My theory of the escape can be summed up in one word—PIE!" The warden thinks Schalk got a whiff of the pieman’s basket and climbed Into the wagon to flich “a tart or something” and that the driw er came out sooner than- Schalk thought he would and drove off with him. “What would you have done in Schalk's place?” asks the warden, “Would you have yelled?” The interviewer was inclined to be- lieve he would have made a noise lke a ple. The pastry cook thinks Schalk slid into the wagon as it was leaving the | ¥ courtyard. If Schalk had been nest- ling among the pies in the bottom of the wagon trying to look like the late afternoon shadow of a chocolate eclair the general passenger agent of the outfit would have discovered him. But he didn't until after he was several blocks from the Tombs. Schalk then decamped. SHED NECESSARY FOR SHEEP Animals Go Out In Stormy, Cold|H Weather and Snow and Rain Sticks to the Wool. taste.
