MONDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 1, 1919 THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER PAGE THRER CLEARWATER C0. TAKES . UP THE CONSOLIDATED SCHOOL PROPOSITION ‘Water Works Well Driller En- counters Rocks; Blasts Awaken Town (Special to Pioneer.) Clearbrook, Dec. 1.—Elmer Olbgrg 4s home again after his visit with eastern friends. Judging by the sound and sha],ge given our city at times last week, it appeared like Jack Urban had become ‘a- bolsheviki, and commenced bom- bardment of Clearbrook with.out warning, and cause. Upon investiga- .tion it was found that Jack was only trying to blast a big rock out of the hole obstructing his quest for water for the fire protection well he has un- .der construction. Seibert Obrahanson, Clearbrook’s popular asistant buttermaker, hqs de- parted for the cities, where he is at- tending the college of agriculture at .the University Farm, taking up a special course in buttermaking of- fered by the state. The new townsite owners are Thustlers and lots are moving right _along. The other day Alfred Nel'son purchased two more business lot§ just “south of the Nelson Quality Store, Inc., on main street, while the Clear- brook Mercantile Co., added two more lots to their holding on the west on First avenue. S. C. Sheets, the hust- ling and progressive edit:or and pub- lisher of the “Leader,” added an- .other fine lot to his valuable hold- ings over on Oak street, .with several anore. under consideration. Clear- brook property is a good investment, .and wise are the parties who secure a lot or two at once, before the pres- -ent owners boost the price o.. the re- maining lots on par with other prop- .erty in the village. We almost over- looked to mention the fact that the .Clearbrook Electric company secured 2 lot the other day, just west of the First State bank, on First avenue. Now, if you are considering getting a residence or business lot in Clear- “brook, and secure ground floor rates, it is your time to see Jensen & Ran- .dahl, the new boosters, before the ad- vance is added to the present prices, which will be done before long, in .order to egqualize conditions. Who next? : Val McGriff of Muncie, Ind., called .on his many friends here last Friday on his way out to Orr, N. D, to visit his daughter, Lyle, who was married to Guy Harrey a short time ago. Mr. McGriff is well pleased with his new home in the east, but exceedingly happy to see the rapid growth and .development of his old home com- munity here at Clearbrook. On his return from the west, en route east, he will make a longer visit with his ‘hundreds of bosom friends and rela- tives throughout this section of Clearwater county. Mr. and Mrs. August Hanson gave a venison spread to a bunch of their friends here Thanksgiving day. The government instructs that "‘Farmers clubs throughout the coun- try should get together and orde_r government goods in large qugnu.' ties. thus reaping the full benefit of the offers now given the people to buy direct. Call upon your post- master for price lists and informa- tion. The Farmers Elevator at Clear- brook was last week filled to the brim for several days, while grain ‘prought in had to be stored about town. <Clearbrook is large enough for another elevator, in fact must have it, for the next season. If the tarmers don’'t enlarge their present storage capacity in the near future, we expect to see another concern do- ing business here pefore long. Com- petition is the life of business, and the more buyers the better the price. “The large rich territory covered by «Cleabrook makes another grain ele- vator for our city an absolute neces- sity. Who will be the lucky party or parties to get in on the ground floor? The dance given here Thanksgiv- ing night was largely attended and a most enjoyable time was the re- sult. A number of young ladies from here attended the ball at Gully, “Thanksgiving evening. They report a swell time. C. J. Haagenson, manager of the ‘Clearbrook Opera house, announces that he has just purchased a first class moving picture outfit which he will place in the hall here at Clear- brook. He may take in the neighbor- ing towns on the ““‘Soo” if conditions warrant. He will show nothing but first class, clean and entertaining matter. Clearbrook is to be congra- tulated upon the venture of Mr. Hagenson, which will mean so much to the public, as good clean enter- tainments are moral bracers and community lifters during the long, cold. dreary winter months. Dr. Thompson of Hutchinson. this state, visited over Thanksgiving day with friends here. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Tunberg spent Thanksgiving day at Bemidji. School Supt. Mae Barrggy, of our county last week held a series of lec- tures or meetings in the school dis- tricts in and around Clearbrook. ably assisted by the superintendent of the Kelliher school, in favor of consoli- dated schools. We are not in posi- tion to state how the Clearbrook school will stand on receiving its folds, neighboring schools into its {men’s association at Crookston, De- BAGLEY HIGH SCHOOL HAS RECORD SELDOM EQUALLED The Bagley high school has a rec- ord that hardly any other school in the state can boast of. No graduate has ever “flunked out” of the univer- sity or any otner accredited college in Minnesota. The high school is one of the most modern in northern Minnesota, cost- ing $45,000, when built two years ago. It has four fully equipped de- partments; namely agriculture, nor- mal training, domestic science and manual training. All of these de- partments are in the hands of com- petent instructors, excepting the' manual training department, which is closed this year because of lack of teachers. A well stocked library of about 500 volumes and the current magazines and newspapers is one of the attractive features of the school. The attendance in the high school this year is 90; over 15 more than have ever been enrolled before. The instructors are: Superintend- ent, John Cogswell; Normal train- ing, Mable Wetzel; agriculture, J. Sazama; domestic science, Miss Pat- rick; music, Mrs. Richey; principal, Mr. Nelson; assistant principal, Miss Goodman. o et ey hence would advise our neighbors not to take them by surprise and rush them off their feet, but organize, take our enterprising Supt, Miss Mae with you, come over and talk it over with the girls and boys over here, and chances ought to be good for a real get together feast on this matter. We understand that a number of the farmers in the school districts tribu- tary to Clearbrook are beginning to agitate bigger and better schools, as the education of our children is para- mount to good government and bet- ter citizens. The arguments set forth by Miss Barrggy and her able assist- ant proved to all in attendance that consolidation of our schools is the only system under which we can pos- sibly reap the full benefit of our money expended in school taxes, be- sides being in position to give our children a complete education here at home, without sending them off to strange towns, with strange people, and strange surroundings, which is not for the best interest of the child, while at the same time working a handicap on the parents. while call- ing for a larger cash outlay in a few months than would have necessary in several years of taxes in order to conduct the school under the new form. May the good work so well be- gun be carried forth. with the spirit in which it was begun, and we have every reason to believe that we ought to be in position to solve the question to the satisfaction of all concerned, and the benefit of mankind. Miss Hilda Aakre, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Sever G. Aaker of Holst, and Anton Stendalen of the same township, were united in marriage at Bagley, Saturday, November 22nd, by Rev. G. E. Nelson, Lutheran Free church parsonage. Bridal attend- ants were Miss Olga Severson, of Ed- dy, and Engvold Aakre, a brother of the bride. They will make their fu- ture home upon the fine farm of the groom, located about -seven miles southeast from Clearbrook. Con- gratulations is now in turn. Attorney Emil T. Evenson, of this place, spent Thanksgiving day with Mr. and Mrs. John Yde, of Leonard. Mrs. Yde is a sister of Mr. Evenson. The Ladies Aid sale in Seljord net- ted the ladies about $125. The sale was held on Thanksgiving day. Well done. Miss Hope and Earl Jensen, who are attending the Northwest School of Agriculture at Crookston, spent Thanksgiving at home on the *“Clover Crest” farm. Henry Olberg has purchased a brand new feed mill and gasoline en- gine, and expect before long to be in position to grind feed for all comers at his stand here in Clearbrook. Contractor Victor helquist has finally been in position to lay the foundation for the fine new work shop which he has under construc- tion just west of the Clearbrook Lum- ber yard. Victor is a hustler, a worker and a man who under clarsy carpenter work for A to Z and his work-shop will consequently be mod- ern and up-to-date, with motor ppower. Mrs. Olof Engen arrived home Fri- day evening after a visit to Fosston, where she was to seek medical aid, as she has not been strong since the at- tack of the flu last summer. A. L. Klippe of Pine Lake left for the Twin Cities here the latter part of last week to seek medical aid, as he has not been feeling well of late. Clearwater county will be well rep- resented at the 16th annual conven- tion of the Red River Valley Dairy- cember 10 and 11. Mr._ and Mrs. Edward D. Rydeen and sister, Mrs. Clayton Cartwright, left last week to attend the funeral of their mother at Winthrop, this state. —_— DR. E. A. SHANNON, M. D.

This famous salts is made the weather is bad you have rheuma- tic twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the channels often get sore and irritated, obliging you to seek relief two or three time during the night. To neutralize these irritating acids, to cleanse the kidneys and flush off the body’s urinous waste get four ounces of Jad Salts from any phar- macy here; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine.

Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot injure, and makes a delightful effer- vescent lithia-water drink. FIRE INSURANCE REAL ESTATE REYNOLDS & WINTER 212 Beltrami Avenue Phone 144 .

BETTER THAN CALOMEL Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets are a Harmless Substitute Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets—the sub- stitute for calomel—are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. These little olive- colored tablets are the result of Dr. Edwards’ determination not to treat liverand bowel complaints with calomel. The pleasant little tablets do the Eod that calomel does, but have no d after effects. They don’t injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. Qhey take hoid of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong lIiquids. It is best not to take calomel. Let Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets take its place. Hcadaches, “dullness” and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a disordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets when you feel “logy’’ and “heavy.” They “clear” clouded brain 10cand 25c¢. DONT FUSS WITH MUSTARD PLASTERS!
