OFFICIAL COUNTY AND OITY PROCEEDINGS \g COMMUNITY CLUB IS SUGGESTED. When Judge Stanton, in his remarks before the Com- mercial elub at the organization’s annual banquet at the Mark- ham Thursday night, suggested the plan for the Commercial club to change its identity into a community club, enlarging its scope of membership, his idea was backed up by Hon. Frank W. Murphy, the speaker of the occasion, who narrated the calling of a similar organization in’his home town and its uses. ¢ Mr. Murphy said the structure is erected upon a school yard and was under the care of the janitor, that the purpose of the building was for the use of the people-in meeting ‘to discuss subjects of loyalty and in the interest of the community. That the building was equipped for the young ‘people of the community for healthful recreation. That it was headquarters for the Community club and all civic purposes. He suggested that such, dedicated to the soldier dead of Bemidji; would be of much benefit to the city and would pro- long remembrance of the supreme sacrifices made in aiding the happiness and progress through the future years of the community; from whence went the soldiers to Flanders’ field. 0~ ONE TIME BEMIDJI “FAILED.” When Judge Stanton referred to the time when “Bemidji failed” to secure a sleeper on the M. & I for the Twin Cities, during his remarks at the Commercial club banquet, he did s¢ in a facetious manner, Mr. Gemmel, general manager of this division of the M. & I. being present. Of course Mr. Gemmell is powerless to order the restora- tion of the sleeper as the road is in the hands of government control. As a “war” activity the Bemidji sleeper was taken off and one sleeper run from International Falls to St. Paul-and Minneapolis, arriving here late at night, with one-half allowed passengers from International Falls to Bemidji and the other half from Bemidji to the Twin Cities, many being compelled to forego securing a berth and sitting up the entire way to the southern terminal of -their trip. And this fact has been the _cause of bitter criticism and sour visages, which still rankles. 0 PEGELOW IN CHARGE OF WAR SAVINGS DRIVE. When the duties of the Red Cross chapter presidency fell to the lot of C. W. Warfield, he sent in his resignation as chair- man of the war savings committee of Beltrami county. But it appears to have been too late for a successor to be appointed to plan the campaign which opened this week, Monday, and on Thursday, C. Li Pegelow, a Bemidji attorney, received the appointment. Although the time is late he has started out to have Beltrami meet its part of the work and will organize the county. Bemidji and the county fell down on its last campaign and it is hoped success will be met in this one. s i Provisions are meeting with all sorts of disasters at present. Eggs are dropping, butter is falling and potatoes are slumping. Bread seems to be the only thing that is rising. e () e, i ‘As food helped to win our war so will it help to crush the insurrectionists in Russia.

KIEHL, Proprietor AT THE THEATERS *CODE OF THE YUKON.” At the Rex theatre tonight wiil be seen that giant actor of northwood roles,” Mitchell Lewis,” who'was last|’ seen at the Rex'in “Nine Tenths of the Law.” He is now a member of the Select pictures company and his first production under this corpora- tion will ‘be ‘‘Code of the Yukon.' This plcture is the story of Jean Dubois a French Canadian .prospec- tor, who has discovered a gold mine. Jean is quietly storing away what dust he is able to wash each day In the hope that he will soon have enough to leave the Northwoods on a long journey. He is anxious to start on his hunt for the: man who wronged his sister. This is his main object in life. Suddenly his calm is brokem.™ A horde of gold seekers come to: his part of the land. A village soon springs up. “Faro” Telford, a rene- gade gambler, whom Jean had be- friended, is the cause. 'He has in- formed his friends that Jean has dig- covered a gold mine. A gang of min- ing crooks try to steal the mine. They persuade his wife to leave him. She runs away with one of the mem- bers of the gang. Jean is heart- broken but decides to leave the vil- lage and devote all his energy io discovering the 'man who swronged his sister. Also Christie comedy. On Sunday, the Rex will show the Metro feature ‘“His Bonded Wife,” with Emmy Whelen in the lead role, | a five act drama of brilliant social ife in five acts. It tells the story of a beautiful and wealthy New York girl who' wishes to be loved for herseit and not for her wealth. For this reason' she leaves ‘home and goes to 1 unpretentious: way- by herself, . many adventures—both amusing and dramatic——are cleverly shown by Miss Wehlen and her brilliant sup- porting company. How she meets and fall§ in love witn a young archi- tect, and the "many complications which arise through her harmless de- ception, are incidents which Wwill be appreciated by everyone. Charlie Chaplin will also’ be. seen in “The Fireman.” “THE SILVER KING."” Jesse L. Lagky, the famous pro- ducer, endorsed “The Silver King,” the new Paramount-Artcraft special feature that will appear in the Elko theatre tonight and tomorrow, in high terms, “it is a remarkable picture,” said Mr. Lasky, “for in no particular has it been overdone. = Mr. Mantle, the scenarist, and. Mr. Irying, the direc- tor have done wonders- with the story, a masterpiece in ftself, but all toa easy for less competent hands to ruin in transferring it to the screen. Mr. Faversham and Miss Castleton are superb and I failed to find a flaw in the work of any supporting player. As a Paramount Artcraft -special “The Sflver King" is certain to raise still “higher the standard of these apecial production’s which we deter- mined would be the best that money and the development of photodrama- ‘ic art could provide. “Beware of Boarders,” Paramount- Mack Sennett two part comedy, is also| * on the Elko program for tonight gnd Sunday. ADVENTURE AND RfiOMANCE. “rhe Bondage of Barbara,” at the Girand theatre tonight and Sunday, tells the story of a girl who fights hard when love is at stake; a story that makes the heart heat faster and the body pulsate with indignation over the trials and difficulties tnrown into the path of a slip of a girl.’ Mae Marsh has charmed and thrilled you in other plays, but ncver has she greeted you in a play of such ad- venture and romance as ‘‘The Hond- age.of Barbara.” “Smiling BillI” Parsons will also appear at the Grand tonight and to- morrow in “The Big Idea,” one of his inimitable comedies. } TYPICAL CLARK PICTURE. A typical Marguerite Clark pic- ture is “'Little Miss Hoover,” which is the bill at the Grand theatre Mon- day and Tuesday. The story is based upon the novel of “‘The Golden Bird.” The popular *‘Iron Test’” will also be shown, at the usual hours, with ad- dition of a specisl matinee for ‘chil- dren at 4:20 Monday only.

He: shouldered his rifle and went to in- vestigate. The man proved to be George God- frey, a figure of six feet and 200 pounds, who had escaped the pre- vious night from San Quentin prison. Jerry recognized him. He forced the convict to elevate his hands and marched the man two blocks up the street to officers of the law, 3 STAHL-JACOBS Furniture Renovators All work guaranteed.
