SAY WATER NEEDED (Continued from Page One) od, He explained.that.a fireman had , stay on \the jobiand was}:nnhle 8 nd. AP 3 policeman; xig’_eygg’:fi ,%a‘snflf cdll“came in. Street Vacation Asked. John Moberg asked the council for -~ a deed :to 26 feet off ‘Woodland ave- nye, rupning alongside the Potato Productp plant, saying that it was ] ry. to tramsfer the plant to the Falk company. The avenue is un- usually wide and sparingly used, and a petition from property holders has been presented, asking the city. to vacate the strip in question. The pe- tition is filed with the city clerk and . a"date for hearing will be set. The report of the board of equali- zation was presented and read and showed :that net increases in values amounting to $17,669 had been add- ‘Postmaster Ritchie addressed the council in regard to the government post office paying- its share of the sprinkling charges. He explained that he took it up with the treasury department at Washington and that the reply was that the government didn’t pay a cent for sprinkling the streets around its postoffices. That settled the question in a jifty. The bil:amounts to $40. ¥ eqd . Bumping” Ordinance. The third reading of the ordinance Alkilating signs over walks and the height of signs and awnings ang overhead obstructions - was read by the city clerk and passed. It becomes effective September 1, and failure to comply means fine or jail sentence. The third and last reading of the cappropriation from the general fund of $76 yearly for the fire hydrants was. given and becomes an ordinance. Heretofore ‘the allotment was $30 ‘per hydrant and the increase of the .appropriation’ was that everybody .shiould pay a small portion. . :Nymore asked that Lincoln avenue be.changed to' Central-avenue, it be- ing the principal business thorough- fare. Granted, by the passage of an ordinance. _T. 'W. Coultas, A. E. Miller and John Doucher asked the council to egtablish a sidewalk grade on the north side of Twelfth street, between Park and Norton avenue. Mr. Coultas agserted they had filed a petition for thie establishment of the walk grade two years ago, but that nothing was done about it. —An estimate of thef cost'will be made and reported at next meeting. . Alderman Backus presented a reso- lution transferring $2,000 from the. oor. fund to the sinking fund, from ‘which fund $2,000 was transferred to the permanent improvement fund. The $400 remaining in the poor fund will .be used in emergent cases of winter destitution. The county now takes care of the destitute poor and the_poor” tund of Bemidji was of_no vice.

A, Harris of Crookston has the contract and notice was given by} the ncil to grant the request if a hond of $5,000 was given to com- pensate the city against all damages ihat might result. The hour set for the house to be moved across the con- crete bridge was between 1 and 3 o'clock. in the morning, to prevent any possible blocking of traffic. The first request of this nature had been denied. At the request of Barle A. Barker, thé council appropriated $150 to help secure free attractions for the tair, ‘Heretofore the city has gllowed $250 for the same purpose, but Mr. Barker ‘explained that. economy had begn “practiced and only $1560 was needed at.this time. ~ y "Ed -Jewett, fire truck driver, and Chief Driver Gaines, were each al- lowed- an increase of $10 in their ‘monthly -salaries. The .police force was also raised $10 per month. - The street crew was also raised. The superintendent was increased to $6_per day, man with team was granted $7 per day and laSor $4 per day, retroactive from August 7. The city clerk also came in for a rnlqu of $10 per month. It was near 12 o’clock when the counci] finished its grind. SUFFERED FOR THEIR FAITH FrenchHuguenots Driven Into Exlle piby:the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes. < The Huguenots. were: the Puritans of France in the sixteenth and seven-. teenth centurles. - The name was first . used about 1560; fits” origin is ‘un-’ known. The Huguenots suffered se-' verely In the reigns of Francis I and ‘his immediate successors, and after 1562 were frequently involved in war, under the leadership of -such men as Admiral Coligny and King Henry of Navarre, afterwards Henry IV of France. Coligny and from 20,000 to 80,000 others fell in the massacre of St. Bartholomew, August 24, 1572.. It is disputed In history whether this ddenly caused. by the discov- Huguenot plots or had been tated. In spite of all this, they. continued numerous and power- ful-and the edict of Nantes, issued in --1588°by Henry IV gave them full po- litical:and. civil rights. Their power was hroken after the surrender of LaRochelle and the revocation of the of Nantes by Louis XIV in 1685, ods .o, thoyisands of FHugu nots went into .exile,. golng to.

While it may seem a little early to speak of fashions to come when all of us are still concerned with what 18 worn at this moment, the fact that the past month has brought so many buy-: ers back from Europe makes the.con- sideration of fall effects not only time- ly, but interesting as well, observes. a' fashion authority. Eat /For the first time in several ycars many houses’ have returned to ‘their pre-war custom of sending representa- tives abroad, and- we are told that the Paris shops are so filled with shop- pers that one is given & check with a number on it so that one has to wait ‘one’s turn to be served. However beautiful the French dresses and gowns ‘may be, the fact ‘remains that the American coat sults outstrip them in style and beauty also. ‘Perhaps this is because no other wom- en ‘wear coat suits quite 8o success- fully as do the American. We need not look abroad, therefore, for cut and of, our, winter suits, although we x e -lovely fabrics grate- ftully. ? : 4! 1t 1s-sald that our American makers ‘promise longer skirts and therefore @ three-quarter coat to top them.. . The kimono sleeve is looming up to re- place the recent: tight shoulders’ and snug skin-tight sieeve, A new collar, saucer shaped, is here, out of which we will lift our chins as we were not able to do with the high straight- around affatrs, The saucer collar fits closely around the throat and at the top has a wider plece so made that it stands.out and away from the face in saucer fashion. It is often lined with 4 shade contrasting well with the color of the coat. ! Much embroidery is to be used, we hear, and buttons, too, and flying pan- els to give length. Indeed, some of these panels are most interesting, for they float away apparently ~without rhyme or reason from the top of the coat, but are really stoles to throw: around the neck and shoulders to give extra warmth. Now and then they are fitted on the underside with pock- ets of fur for the hands, The pocket seems to be the supreme ornament and is often a huge patch of fur or & tiny slit in the side of the skirt or the coat.. Whatever. the coat, cape wrap or one-plece dress may oth- erwise be or have, be sure the pocket ‘Is -there somewhere. The' vest will probably - disappear;-‘as it - rather overdone and we have tired -of In its place I ‘fear we will have an“fiflux of the Russlan: ‘blouse or Coseack coat since the' manutsctorers' first showing of models seems al' to present the full overhanging waist ef- fect ‘easily obtained in; this style of coat. The belt and sash will, doubt- less, because of this trend, play as important a part as the pocket. Laddie’s Form of Exercise. 1 was making a house-to-house can- vass recently and as I turned in at one house I noticed a small boy and his dog, but the dog no sooner noticed me than he came bounding towards | me, barking loudly.
