JOWA RESIDENT ALSO PURCHASES GOOD FARM Telephone Service Is Undergo- ing General Overhauling Under Field Manager (Special to Pioneer.) Clearbrook, Oct. 4.—It has been irying to rain or snow, but it doesn’t : , do either. ) M. L. F. Blix from northeast of Leonard was a busy man in our city ‘Wednesday. John Swanson, one of those spléns did good natured tillers of the soil, «called on friends here Wednesday. i Alfred Bergeson, who sold his | ‘farm near Leonard last week, came to our busy berg Wednesday and i closed a deal whereby he became the owner of a quarter section of land near Neving. This included 80 acres of the Carl W. Nelson homestead and Gustaf Nilsson homestead. It was a -fine farm. We congratulate him upon bis excellent move. Mr. 'Webster, one of the managers of the Farmers Cash Market called bere Wednesday. Lenny Barks of Clover township is assisting Herbert M. Johnson at the potato warehouse. A party from Luana, Iowa dropped into our city just part of this week, and before returning decided to pick out a good farm for his future home. He selected the farm owned by E. Randahl in Sinclair township, which he purchased from Andrew Norbom last summer. The price was $65 per :acre, and considered a most reason- :able buy when evefything is taken into consideration. . The large, modern residence of Mr. 1and Mrs, L D. Krétser in the High- “land Park addition is fast looming up under the guiding hands of Con- . tractor Victor Shelqumist. It has a .most ' ideal location facing ‘Idle- wild,” a small beautiful sheet of _water to the south, formed by the “"Clearbrook stream or creek, which winds its way through the townsite at this point. It is built from tile with stucco finish for the outside, and will be complete and up-to-date throughout, when finished. The Garden Valley Telephone company, under directing hands of Thomas Votlorn, as manager, who resides at Erskine, has a force of men here, who has for some time been busy improving, extending and com- pleting the telephone service throughout the city and country. When completed, it will place this exchange on par with any of them This work -is under the immediate supervision of Emil Burress, field manager for the company. A bouncing son has come to make happy the home of Rev. and Mrs. Hans Herstad. Elmer Bardwell has purchased the 200 acre farm from his father, John P. Bardwell, of Sinclair. John Berg, who returned from North Dakota a few days ago, closed a deal here the other day, whereby he became the owner of the Andrew Wennstrom residence and three lots in the southern section of town. Mr. and Mrs. Wennestrom expects in a ¢ few days to move out to their son’s place on the Sandy river, near Debs, in Beltrami county for the present. The Clearbrook Co-operative Creamery paid the handsome price of 62 cents for butterfat for the month'of August. L. B. Anderson is the efficient and popular butter- maker here, duly assisted by Siebert Abrahamson. 0. A. Wennberg, tie popular and well known buttermaker at the Werne Co-operative Creamery, was a hurried business visitor here the other day. Qur reporter failed to get the price paid for butterfat on their last pay day, but we will wager a doughnut with a hole in, that it ranged with any of them. Are we not right, Ole. Carl Gunvalson, one of the pro- prietors and the general manager of the Werne store, is seen most every day after merchandise and other freight for his fast and ever increas- like Carl with lots of vim and pep, ing business. It takes fellows just and a genial and happy disposition, to make any business a - success, coupled with ability to cap the en- “iiterprise. Henry Hanson, the ‘“Movie Man” is busy entertaining the show loving public here now. He puts up a very clean and interesting entertainment to a full and well pleased house. Nels Holm of Neving transacted business here Thursday.

Elmer Olberg has become Pete Fuglsang’s right hand man at the Farmers Cash Market establishment. If you wish to get today’s news out of today's paper, read The Pio- deer. Do you? SIX SLICES OF ‘PIE FOR MORAN, SECOND SACKER WHITE SOX Comiskey, Head of Chicago Americans, Once Managed Reds Three Years Eddie Collins, star second s%tker of the White Sox, is sure in sttong with old Dame Fortune. While som¥ of the premier ball players of the majors, including Nap Lajoie, have gone through a career without a single look in at world’s series hon- ors, the former athletic star will have played in six out of the fifteen post-season battles when the curtain falls on this year’s classic. He and his old team mate, Jack Barry, hold the record as the most “world’s seried” players of the game. Barry has been a member of six win- ners, but he played in only five series,’a broken arm in 1916 having kept him from active work in the series. In addition to the honor of having played in the most world’s champion- ship games, Colling had profited im- mensely by the smile of the little god Luck, which has given him five large slices of the world’s series coin and one small hunk. By another piece of Juck he did not take part in the series when ‘slim years” prevailed. It is estimated that the extra money which came to him from this source runs around $17,000. His first divvy of the extra coin came with the Athletics when they won the world’s championship in 1910. He was with them when they repeated in 1911 and in 1913, when the Braves made the Athletics take the small cut of the pie in 1914 he had another piece. Then he was traded to the White Sox and cut in again on the coin in 1917 and this year he repeats for even a larger share which seems probable with the increase of the series to nine games. CHARLIE COMINSKEY. No more picturesque figure is prominent in baseball today than Charles Comiskey, the “Old Roman” president of the pennant winning White Sox. He has been in baseball’s spotlight for twenty-seven years as manager, owner and an authority om the na- tional game. He is the big boss now of a team that has never lost a world’s series decision. Twice the White Sox have landed a pennant and as many times they have nosed out the National League entry in the big classic. Comiskey first became prominent as manager of the Cincinnati Reds in 1892, 1893 and 1894. He was not a howling success in that capacity, the team finishing fifth, sixth and tenth respectively under his guidance. His big step came in 1900 during the fight between the National and American League. He was one of the principal factors. He helped or- ganize the western wing of the league and later acted on the com- mittee which met ana dclared a truce with the older league. When the league got under way in 1901 he became president of the Chicago club and has held that position ever since. He had the honor of heading the first American League pennant winner. re wrung man When I was an auhmn-y“ sirl I was, keeping house in my moth- er’s absence and recelved word from ian oid friend of the family, of whom !I was very fond, that he was to be our |guest for a day or two. Toward eve- Ining when the doorbell rang I told our little colored maid to answer it iand show Mr. Blank Into the Hving ‘room. I rushed into the room which was half dark, some minutes later and threw my arms around the gentleman who rose to greet me and kissed him soundly only to hear a strange volce say, “I called to see if I could interest you in a wonderful set of books I am showing today.” I backed to the light and turned it on to view a perfect stranger—a book agent. But Mr. Blank’s timely arrival just then saved a little of my embar rassing explanation.—Chicago Tribune. Subscriba f~+ The Pioneer. THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIGNEER HIS WORD OF REAL WOR'I;H Werld Would Be Better If There Were Mere Like This Omaha Busl- ness Man, An Omaha newspaper man has a motor car, remarks the World Herald of that city. Last spring he had it painted. Not long ago the surface be- gan to develop an amazing series of ecracks iike the “crow’s feet” about an old man's eyes. The man greeted the cracks with amazement rapidly becom- ing disgust. Every time he looked at the car he lost his appetite and his good, temper. The other day the car was taken to the paint shop. Its owner was fully prepared to hear that he had used the wrong kind of polish, that he had let the car stand out in the sun, that any- thing and everything had spolled the paint except that the paint itself was at fault. The painter looked the car over. “If you'll bring 1t in, I'll do it over,” he sald. “The varnish must have been bad.” It was all over in two minutes. The man's faith in human nature jumped several hundred per cent. The sky was clear ; the whole world was set In rosy hue. Here was a man who didn’t dodg® responsibllity, who tried no excuse, who backed his work with his word and made good his word. o — Isn't it & pretty good pollcy! Non'ruélm an.
