When compared with the hardships suffer- ed in Europe, no one in America has really suffered, becaa§e 9f the taxes and money loaned the government. If a hardship in any case, it may be recalled as a pleasant one. Generally speaking, the PEOPLE have been applauded, because of their extreme patriotism and loyalty, and special mention has been given to various classes, but the laboring class deserve particular mention for its devotion and sacrifice to country. It is this class of citizenry, which felt the vices of the government most. The men who responded to the call of country in every in- stance, and did all that’ was expected of them and more, are those who kept the wheels of industry going. This refers par- ticularly to the men employed on the railroads, the engineers, conductors, brakemen, switchmen, machinists and trainmen in general. Every allotment made upon them was met cheerfully and with determination to do better next time. In no instance, among this class, was duty questioned. The response was in- stant. When it came to subscribing for the Red Cross, the Sal- vation Army, K. of C., Y. M. C. A. and other humane forces, the railroad men were in the foreground. When it came to sending men to the front statistics show that the boys from the railroads were there with the first. They were willing and ready to go where needed most. So let us give credit where credit is due and when history endeavors to record facts, it will be found that the men who had charge of the country’s rolling stock will rank among the highest in the land. AN WA NAVY ENLISTMENTS TWO, THREE OR FOUR YEARS According to word received from Lieutenant Commander G. H. Fort, recruiting officer for Minnesota and North Dakota, enlistments in the navy may be made for a period of two, three or four years, at the option of the recruit. Heretofore enlistments in the navy have been for a period { of four years, with the exception of minors under eighteen years { of age, who were enlisted for the period of minority. The pro- vision for enlistments for two, three or four years was part of the naval appropriation bill, approved the eleventh of July, 1919. Enlistments above authorized may be made in any of the ratings from first enlistment with the exception of applicants for Machinists Mates school, and Aviation Mechanics school, for which the minimum is three years. Also men re-enlisting for two, three or four years are en- titled to extra pay same as previously authorized for a four year re-enlistment, and honorable discharge gratuity to two, three or four months. Present war pay has been made permanent. Naval officers are of the opinion that this will be a great attraction for young men, and especially -for men who have ! already seen service in the Navy. For information call or write to any of the following re- cruiting stations:—Naval Headquarters, 403 Second avenue South, Minneapolis, Minn.; substations at Duluth, Saint Paul; Fargo, Grand Forks, and Minot, North Dakota, or see the local | postmaster. | Applicants will be furnished transportation from | homes to Minneapolis, for physical examination. ] —egee i ! B (S their 0 treasury department of the United States public health service, ‘Washington: . “According to the statement of the surgeon general of the war department, venereal diseases constituted the greatest cause of disability in the army. For this condition, civilian communities have been responsible. Virtually all cases of venereal disease were contracted within communities over which civil authorities have control.” ‘ e H. M. Stanton, secretary of the Bemidji association, and commander of the Ralph Gracie post of the American Legion, says that the local post will be represented at both the state and national conventions to be held, the first in St. Paul and the second in Minneapolis. There are about 35 members in the Gracie post and there are many others eligible who are urged to join. Members are returned soldiers, sailors and marines. o It is to be hoped that there will be a large attendance of farmers and producers in general, together with a liberal repre- sentation of the business men of Bemidji and neighboring towns and villages, at the meeting to be held July 80, for the purpose of hearing discussions on the proposed community market for Beltrami county. It will be held in the quarters of the Bemidji association. AT/ PSRN City and county cooperated in putting the roads leading into Bemid;ji in good condition for the coming of the Jefferson Highway tourists, which will arrive tomorrow for night control. It will mean much in the opinion of visitors, for General Mana- ger Clarkson of the highway will be among the trippers.

Mary Pickford, called by many, “‘the spirit of the screen,” will be een at the Grand theatre tonight only in *“Rags,” an appealing pic- turization of Edith Barnard Delano’s uovel, “Rags,” a character that fits the star admirably. This five-part. production is a de- lightful combination of comedy and drama, both of which elements of the story are thoroughly human. Af- ter the perfect acting of Mary Pick- ford, the story deserves the greatest praise. A LITTLE HISTORY. Madge Kennedy’'s new Goldwyn picture, “Through the Wrong Door “howing at the Grand theatre Sat- urday and Sunday. has a little his- behind it. It was first pub- lished as a serial story in Colliers Weekly under the title of “The Wrong Door.” The story, which is by iesse Lynch Williams, aroused tre- ‘mendous interest ,and was later pub- ished as a novel. Finally Goldwyn burchased the motion picture rights ‘o the story and assigned Rex Taylor ‘o adapt it for the screen.
