Captain Orchard explains what is being done for the little cripple girl, who lives upstairs over the Salvation Army hall. Many people are becom- ing interested in this case and have been inquiring why someone doesn’t take interest enough and have her! atfended .to by a doctor. . Captain Orchard wants to say this is being- done by a special man and in a short time the little girl will be seen walk- ing the street, not in t,he-gondition‘ that she walks it today. This family was found and taken care of by Captain Orchard and was given rooms to live in with rent free, alio fuel, furniture and food ‘have been taken to them every week since coming under-his charge. . “We. have.a good many cases un- der our care who are not exactly destitute but have to be helped and we are doing our very best to re- lieve them, but must have Bemidji people’s co-operation,” continued Captain Orchard. “In doing so we give you our services free if you will furnish the goods at this time. We ‘are in need of clothing, shoes and furniture. If you have anything in this line, kindly call 478 and we will send someone to gather them, or if you desire to deliver them your- self, our headquarters are at 901 American avenue.” ; HUMAN BLOOD MAY BE SOLD. Human blood may soon become a regular stock of trade of the corner drug store and hospital pharmacists. | according to Dr. John Dean Elliot of Philadelphia. In the past, he says, it has been necessary for doctors about to perform a blood transfu- sion to waste valuable time advertis- ing for persons to give blood. If pharmacists would have such persons on a selected list ready for instant call, it would add human blood as a commodity to be sold over the drug counter.

He found both, but went through Hell first. A gripping drama of the Yukon where life is in the raw and men fight for gold. A story that equals Jack London’s in_ dramatic punch and the thrill of ‘the gold country where many have gone mad, eaten snow and died, in a vain search for freasure. “Mints of Hell,” with Episode No. 7 of the ‘“Master Mystery,” will be shown Tuesday only at the Grand theatre. 7 S WHEN THE SHOW STARTS Under each theatre name above appears the usual time of starting shows. This varies only occasionally, and such variations are advertised. Being present at the stated time insures your being able to get located in the particular part of the theatre you most prefer. Besides, you may “see all the show,” and—take it from us—there will be greater enjoyment for yourself and others through avoiding disturbance of those already seated. Added enjoyment of performances. is experienced when patrons are seat- ed at the beginning of a show. Near- ly all plays, like books, create more favorable impressions if we see, or read, them from the beginning. Cer- tainly those who see only part of a play, or read omly. part of a book, are not in a position to intelligently express an opinion about them. You will be better entertained if you come to the theatre and occupy a seat “when the show starts.” ——ge b s If you go to a strange city and ask the hotel clerk to direct you to a theatre its dollars to doughnuts you will be directed to the theatre showing Paramount-Artcraft pictures. The reason for this is Paramount- Artcraft pictures uniformly satisfy. In Bemidji Paramount-Artcraft pic- tures are shown in the Elko theatre where conditions are ideal for thor- ough enjoyment of those most fav- orably known productions. arhe@ From' Cérrespondence School—Work Sometimes “Hay" Foot, Straw Foot,” Charles Ray’s Paramount picture, comes next Monday and Tuesday. 4 Charles plays the role of a magic- ian who learned his tricks in corre- spondence college. But the tricks don’t work out the way the books said they should. But he doesn’t course in love! have to take a GRAND Saturday Sunday TOM MOORE Gay LordQuex The Saturday Evening Post and other reputable publications tell why Paramount-Artcraft Pictures lead the industry and are so satisfying. The Elko shows them all. JEAN DAWN. COMING Mystery Girl — Will Answer Questions Free ) Jean Dawn, known in vaudeville as the “Wireless Girl” is coming to the Grand theatre for one solid week early in December.

R_AI_S TR[CKSH SCRATCHED WRONG WAY. TWPOPULAR‘STARS IN The crowd of social parasites she chummed with thought that she was 80 badly “broke” that they could use her for a cat’s paw—but they found that she could scratch the wrong way.

Never has Dustin Farnum had a role as in the Paramount production, “The Parson of Panamint,” which is the bill at the Elko theatre tomorrow, Friday.

They put a big black smudge all over a good family name. But his Lordship wouldn’t have worried about that.if he hadn’t met The Girl and found that his ‘“wine, women and song” past put a dent in his aspirations to sail the seas of matrimony. He tried to re- form, but fate in the person of a facinating Duchess contrived to stage a little affair in the ladies’ apartment at midnight and the gay Lord Quex lost some of his gaiety. . Smiling Bill Parsons, that jovial fat comedian who has pleased so many times, will appear Saturday and Sunday at the Grand theatre in “A Wonderful Night,” in connection with Tom Moore in the “Gay Lord Quex,” making an-unusually attrac- tive program for those two days. -0- Picture stories of the romance of famous things and more famous peo- ple, with cartoons by the most fam- ous cartoonist in the world, Earl Hurd, appear in The Paramount Magazine, to be seen at the Elko theatre every Wednesday and Thurs- day.
