This is a big day for twenty-seven members of the senior class of the Bemidji High school, for this evening they are to receive their diplomas, their reward for having completed the courses assigned. L % ¥ They have arrived at the first stepping ston@:in their walk of life and by the completion of their high school stud.le’s.a:re prepared in a .great measure to assume the. responsibilities whi¢h come with young manhood and young womanhood. Some may consider their education complete, whi]efithers _wzll. devote their attention during the next few years to higher institutions of learning. In either event they have been enabled to receive a valuable education from their:lessons and able instructors, and one equally valuable from the association with @lge_r students, on the playground, athletic field and in social %ctivities, For most of the.students the winning of thgxt diplomas comes only after hard work and plenty of application, and Be- midji is right when it recognizes the graduation exercises such as are to be held this evening as an event of importance. The Grand theatre should be filled this’'evening, for the-parents and friends of the graduates should remember that fllo happy boys and girls who are to-participate in the commencement will in due course of time take their places among the prominent and progressive in our community. We should make their gradu-| atiorr' day a little triumph for each of them. : F) M — While there is nothing really improper in 'the purchase or sale or an army honorable decoration, medal or cross, the qual-} ity depends wholly on the circumstances of the sale and.the purpose of the purchase. We feel that only a need rather closely approaching the desperate fully would explain and justify the disposal for moneYy of a well earned mark of gallantry or distinc- tion, either by him upon whom it was bestowed or by an heir| into whose possession it had fallen after the original recipient’s death. Such needs do arise, however, and their seriousness is, “ONE OF THE FINEST” GIVES. , TOM MOORE STRONG ROLE “One of the Finest” is Tom Moore's new: Goldwyn picture, which comes to the Grand theatre.Saturday and Sunday. :-Not only does it afford any number. of delightful ' surprises in the way of startling complications and unexpected thrills, but it shows the likable star in a decidedly new guise;” He is Larry Hayes, a mount- ed policeman, monarch of all he sur- veys in the fashionable park compris- ing his beat.- He makes his first mis- take 'in the performance of his duty when he overtakes a speeding lim- ousine and reminds its beautiful oc- cupant, Frances. Hudson °(Seena Owen), that her chauffeur is' exceed- ing the limit. The society girl re- sents his rémark and.is angered by his firm, though laughing rejoiner fo her reply. So she sets about to have her father cause Larry ‘Hayes' dis- missal. Instead of this, however, he is reduced to the Tank of plain clothes man—but not before Frances Hudson has been saved by-him when her! life is in péril," Peevishly she resent§ his’ timely, interference and the policeman only laughs the .more. Assigned to guard. her sister's wed- ding presents, Larry again meets the girl he can’t forget and she proves that she hasn’t forgotten him either. From this moment surprises hegin to happen, “Smiling Bill”’ Parsons will be seen in ‘The Sea Wolf" a two part comedy, on the same program. = HER GREAT ADVENTURE. “The Unknown Love,” starring Dolores Cassinelli, with E. K. Lin- coln, which will be shown as a Pathe special at the Grand theatre on Mop- day and Tuesday, has been character- ized as one of the greatest master- piéces of emotional creation, whether of written sheet, the:spoken stage or the silent drama, Twenty thousand women of the United States and Can- ada have paid tribute to it by sag- gesting ra title. whieh would fully comprehend the big theme. It's splendidly different from..ordinary love stories and has ‘the boldness and sourage of a great imagination, sure of itself, dealing, in a néw way, with a theme as old as creation . i GIVE_ FO0D_INGREASE Alies Plan Larger Bation for " 7,000,000 Foes. - - German Need of Fats Reccgnized ' in Order by Military Com-: mission. . Coblenz.~—The average uniformr ra- tion for the 7,000,000 inhabitants of the occupied areas of Glermany "will be 930 grams a day for each person, on general principles, a matter for private, not public determin- ation. He who finds decoration of any kind on sale in a shop i quite warranted in buying it if he is.interested in such things and collects them, as many do.. The one crime always unpard- on2ble is the unauthorized wearing of a mark of honor, what- ever its nature, and whether the distinction it symbolizes:be high or low. But that crime, naturally, is committed ondy by criminals. A normally decent and honest man could get no pleasure_ from deceiving others as to his merits or good fortune in that way, and he would never do it. - The. collector of decora- tions comes in a wholly different category, and while some of his treasures may excite wondering inquiries how anybody could have sold them, he need fear no charge éxcept that.of theft, and that b'ni'y when based on good evidence.

Before the.war Am- erican tourists spent $300,000,000 annually in France and Italy.

CHANGE WORDING _ Corporal Woodward Was Not “Missing,” but Was “Killed - in Action.” 7 Beside a road near Montdidier for ten months ‘lay’ &n unnamed \grave, | . Near it ‘'was the wreck of a “Spad" plane. At its hewd was a cross made of charred pieces from the wreck. At its foot, the taiipiece of a rudder. Once it. was within the German, lines, But the tide of battle swept over it last summer and pushed on until it was left far behind. ‘Marching men passed and repassed it. Trains of camions went rumbling by. . But the riddle of the wreck and the grave went untouched. The solution has just been found. It has prased “Missing” and substi- tuted “Killed in Action” before the name of Corporal Filot Houston Wood- ward of Philadelphia, member of the Ninety-fourth escadrille of the French { aerial forces, and.son of Dr. George Wardward. I which, in the early spring of last year, #blocked the German offensive in the { angle of the line heyond Montdidier; t Gorporal Pilot Woodward's _plang rose, soared above the fighting front and disappeared far. over, .the” German i lines. It never came back. That was April 1, 1918, Days passed and no @rd came. And at last the men of the escadrille ‘gave their young com- rade up as lost. They were not sur. prised that the enemy had not report- ed his death.- He had scorned to wear a name plate on his machine, so con« fident was he always of victory. His papers mMmight. well have. become the trophies of a German infantryman be- fore an officer came to take charge of the body. 3 g The word “missing” went back home. In the face of it his mother -believed him living, & prisoher in Ger- mary. And when one of her gon’s olf friends, Franklin 8. Edmunds of Phil- adelphia, left for France to become head of the legal and soldiers’ leave department of the Y. M. C.

Patty was forced te dis- continue active work and for the past few years has been making his home in Knoxville, where he numbers -his friends by his aguaintances. He is a kind, genial gentleman of the old schoel, . and .is beloved by all who know ‘him. :The following interesting statement was ‘made” by him in per- son to the Tanlac representative: “I am 69 years old and always en- joyed good health up to about six years ago, when I suffered a nervous .breakdown and my general health gradually failed me. My principal trouble was indigestion.and catarrah, but my whole system seemed to out of shape. My condition finally got so bad I couldn’t sleep at night and always after eating I would suffer so from indigestion and. heart-burn that T felt just like there was a coal fire in my stomach. My hearing and vision were also affected. I consulted several doctors here in Knoxville and other cities and they helped me con- siderably and I finally got so I could go* around, .but some how I just couldn’t feel right and could not sleep at night, which made me awful- ly nervous and nothing I would eat seemed to agree with me. “I began reading about this Tanlac when you first came here, but did not decide to try the medicine until I talked with a friend of mine who had actually used it. He said it was the best thing he had ever taken, and that was sufficient proof for me. “I have just finished the first bot- tle and came here this morning, not only to buy the second bottle, but to tell you just what it has done for me. I began enjoying my meals from the first few drops. My nervous- ness is gone and I can sleep like a child and always. wake up in morning ready for breakfast and feg! ing refreshed. 1 am very fond ‘of onions, but was almost afraid to eat them, because they always disagreed with me so; I could taste them for hours aftérwards. I ate one for din- ner the other day and it agreed with me perfectly and I felt no bad after I tell you I am beginning to feel like a different man and am always ing to keep this Tanlac on hand. It has done me more good than anything else in the medi- cine line I have ever taken. I certain- 1y dé recommend it to my friends.
