The former Commercial club of Bemidji had no stauncher member than W. L. Brooks of the Northern National bank, and in The Pioneer, Saturday, the Northern National carried a char- acteristic advertisement, containing an appeal for the success of the Bemidji Civic & Commerce association, which recently completed a most spectacular membership campaign. “The desire of every old member of the club is that every new member should and must come to the meetings. The asso- ciation wants to use all the new live blood which has just been instilled into its veins. will work for the development Let each new member resolve that he of this beautiful city and com- munity and that when he has taken out his membership he has only started in the game.” That’s it. That’s the secret of success of the association and if the suggestion made is carried out by ALL members, all Bemidji will have much to be thankful for, and those who' per- formed the service will be justly entitled to lasting gratitude on the part of its peoples. 0 ELKS ARE NOT DISCOURAGED. “The Elks, which are backing the Salvation Army home service campaign with the splendid enthusiasm which they have shown from the very start,” Mr. Jeffrey says, “have not allowed themselves to become discouraged by the many difficulties which have come up to hinder the progress of the drive, but are going steadily ahead, with the feeling of assured success.” BUTTON!

NEWS OF THE THEATERS STRONG PHOTOPLAY. Shirley Mason's new photoplay, “The Winning Girl,”” will appear in the Elko theatre tonight and tomor- row and it is in every respect a strong photoplay. There is much en- joyable comedy and the character portrayals by Miss Mason, Niles Welch and Theodore Roberts are most artistic. The scenes in the tex- tile factory where the heroine wins fame in a startling way and how she is rewarded are extremely realistic. The story was written by George Weston, the scenario by Will M. Ritchey, and Robert G. Vignola was the director. The seventh chapter of “The Man of Might,” presenting “Stunts’ that thrill, {s also on the Elko program for tonight and tomorrow. SWEET PICTURE STORY.
