It will start out with the evidence before it_that: the. interval of government control and operation has . justified-the claims of the owners, for the past few years, for " a rhise-in rates, and has demonstrated that more liberal regula- tion# are necessary for co-operation. ¢ The first thing the government did on taking control of the hflroadl was, to violate all the restrictions it had imposed npfiah private corporations.

Ave. THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER ONLY KIND OF GOOD HUN While the Canadlans were storming the. Onnal du Nord they discovered that the banks of the canal were studded with German machine gun “grtigts.” That was enough for the Capadians, and they treated them all like the one shown in the.photograph. m Care of Interned Germans. It costs the United States just~51 cents a day to keep each German in- terned in the big colony at Hot Springs, N. O, or $176.15 aplece a year. Of that 51 cents 80 cents a day 1s the cost of food, or, sbout 10 cents a meal. The entlre cost of maintaining the 2,800 Germans: during the iast year has been about: $400,000, The camp Iitself cost $125,000 to build. Probably the whole d |- bill will be submitted to Germany when [ the war is over, as no doubt the Ger- ‘man government will render its bill lor the keep of American prisoners of wur. The United States is caring for about 5,000 prisoners in all camps in this- country at present. He Falled to Salute. Whep my brother- was. stationed at Camp Logan, Houston, Tex., he re- cetv#l a new man In his company. One day he noticed” that the rookle had on a wide black tie. He called to him and’ told him to take off the tie and wear a regulation tle. The next day he noticed the rookie had on a how tie, and once again told him to wear the regulation black string tie. The following day he met him again | da and the. rookfe failed to salute. My brother stopped him and sald: “Why don't you salute an officer?” to which the rookie replied: “I thought you were mad at me"-~Chicago Tribunes Australian Spotted Gum. Spotted gum Is one of the best known and most used of the group of trees known as Australlan hardwoods. It is of a grayish-yellow timber, with a close grain, which -is sometimes straight but occasionally interlocked, hard, tough and elastic. It Is exten- sively used where resilience and light- ness combined with strength are the desiderata; as In coach building and simllar industries. Recently it has been much used for cabinet making purposes, as the color somewhat re- sembles that of oak. Considerable use is also made of the timber for street paving. On account of its strength it Is much. used in the building trade. Spotted gum {s now ‘generally em- ployed by boat builders for timbers or ribs of vessels, formerly of ash or elm. When steamed or boiled it read- fly bends-to. eonform to the shape of the vessel and has very little tendency to split or crack.

SCHROEDER MARTYR HELD IN REVERENCE St. Catharine Occupies Exalted Posk tion In. the Calendar of: the: Roman Cathollc Church, Among the earlier dates of the Ros. man Catholic calendar St. Catherine; holds an exalted ppsition, both from rank, and, lnteuecuwl abllities. Durgs ing persecution instituted 'by Emperor Maximus II, St. Catharlne was mar- tyred, the- tyrant reserving 'a more cruel punishment for.her than any of the rest of his victims. She was placed In a machine, composed of four wheels, connected and armed: with splkes so that the victim would be torn to pleces as they revolved. A, ‘miracle, it is sald, prevented the com- .pletion of this project, as a flash of ’llghtnlug severed the chords with ‘which she was tled, shattering the en- gine and killing the executloners. Maximus ordered that she be carried beyond the walls of the city; scourged and beheaded. From the circum- stanges relating to the wheel, the well- known circular window in ecclesias- ‘tical architecture is known as Cath- arine-wlheel, and also a firework of the same name. This St. Cutharine, who lived In the fourth century, is not to be confounded with the equally celes brated St. Catharine of Siemna, who lived ten centuries later. SAGE TEA DANDY TO DARKEN HAIR It's.

It makes about the same impression on the average person as any ordmary “hole in the ground. B But when.a great building program is contemplated, sand and gravel are of primary 1mportance. Under such COfldlthDS a pit of this character is a handy and eco- nomical thing to have on the premises. It is the good fortune of the Pan Motor Company to have such a pit in the ve-ry spot where it will later erect-oneof its large plant units. Thus, by having sand'and gravel in its own yard a vast saving has been effected in the cost of all buildings erected in the: past and will continue to be effected until the entire plant is in, its completed stage. Considering the saving in hauling and the fact that the pit itself serves as an excavation for a future building, there will be a saving conservatively estimated by experts at One Million. Dollars. Besides, the sand: and the gravel are of a grade and kind highly valued by experienced builders—A-1 material. Mother Earth, is co-operating with the Pzn Motor Company. The very ground is loyal and gives:liberally of its treasure. There are lots of holes on the face of the earth but few of them are worth a Million Dollars. The Pan Pit is doing its bit.
