Published :o‘n'mlmum'm FORGIVE AND FORGET. { One thousand nine hundred and nineteen years ago a child was born, of a virgin mother. ¢ Throughout the years which have flown since this memor- able event we have celebrated the birth of that child. ] The halo which surrounded its little head has remained fixed in our memories through all the centuries of time, and will continue to be with us until time ceases to be. This child was the Christ—the son of God—who, as a man, was nailed to the cross, crucified him there. and forgave his enemies who . Another year is drawing to a close, and the lessons learned m this good man are again brought forcibly to our minds at e Yuletide season of our rejoicing. ' As Christ forgave his enemies, so let us forgive ours, and forget the injustices which they have done us. The harboring of ill will does good to no,one. It may do harm to many. But the greatest harm of all is that which springs from a mind of hate and poisons the heart in which it inds lodgment. It kills the joy of life and fills the road to eternity with impassible barriers, beyond which only the fit in mind and heart may go. ‘At the Christmas of 1919 let us all forgive and forget, an egin the new year with joy in our hearts and good will toward kll people. For Christ was the teacher of teachers, and his lessons are indelibly stamped upon the B — SCARE UP pages of time. A SMILE. The world is dark and gloomy, and times are foreboding, we know. But what of it? Brooding will not cure it, but cheerfulness may help. Scare up a smile—dig up two of good cheer. a laugh—hand out a word or Christmas will soon be here, and all the world should rejoice in the mere fact that we are living. “ _— At the time of Christmas rejoicing it is well to remember ta that the pathway of life is strewn with roses and with thorns, ‘and to each of us is given the which we would trod. privilege of choosing that upon A Merry Christmas to our soldiers in Russia! And can :anyone tell us why in hades they are there? Go to church Christmas. a little child can lead you. O— If yau have forgotten the way, ; i NEWS OF THE 1 THEATERS 'FARNUM FRIDAY AND SATURDAY William Farnum, the famous Wil- iliam Fox star, is to be the headline ‘attraction at the Rex theatre, next Friday and Saturday. Mr. Farnum'’s latest photoplay is called ‘“The Rain- bow Trail,” and is based on a novel by Zane Grey. e production was adapted and directed Dby Frank Lloyd. The story centers about the wilder- ness of .Arizona 1nd dates back to the period of the cliff dwellers and to the day when the easiest way to settle ar- " guments was wita a s:x-shooter. Mr. Farnum is given ample opportunities tn disnlay his' great versatility as! . he portrays a dual role throughout , the picture. IR “CHOOSING A WIFE.” { A dainty lace handkerchief is to . blame for all the troubles which nearly break the hearts of the lead- ing characters in ‘‘Chdosing A Wife,” . which will be shown at the Rex theatre tonight. While “Choosing A Wife.” which is a_First National attraction, is pri- marily a story of love, it is not with- out excitement and adventure. In the interval in which.the older wom- an is. waiting, the man she thinks comedy with a cast of exceptional strength and good photography.— Los Angeles Times. This picture attractively presents a strongly constructed story with a vast theme. King Vidor “strikes homeé” to the hearts of his audiences by the very simplicity o his drama. —Los Angeles Herald. A wholesome story touching the passions and virtures of a clean-cut group of people, presents problems and offers cheering solutions, likely to remain stamped upon the minds of every audience—Los Angeles Ex- aminer, “The Turn in the Road,” with Lit- tle Ben.Alexander and an all star cast, will be shown tonight and Thursday at the Grand theatre. “THE MOONSHINE TRAIL.” From the wild Kentucky moun- tains, the land of feuds and “moon- shine,” came this Cynthia of the Hills—o the great melting-pot of New York. Tragedy had marked the life of this sweet girl, hardly out of her ’teens, for her.father and her two brothers had: paid the penalty of il- licit liquor-making. Saturday and Sunday at the Grand. P P A STRONG ATTRACTION. The Exhibitors Herald -review of “The Love Burglar,” Wallace Reid’s Paramount production showing at the Elko theatre tonight and Thurs- day, says: “The designer of Wallace Reid’s latest contribution to the season’s library has built up a feature that . loves her passes through. a most thrilling series of adventures in the South Sea Islands which include capture, imprisonment, escape and a . duel to the death high above the sea. There will also be seen an L-Ko Jazz comedy. TOM MIX TOMORROW. At the Rex tomorrow, Tom Mix « will be seen in another thrilling western produdction, “The Days of Daring.” This is a special feature, a eequal to “The Riders of the Pur- ple Sage.” “THE TURN IN THE ROAD.” The picture throughout is crowded with big thoughts on the great hu-| man questions of the day. It pulls . the heart-strings.—Los Angeles Rec- .ord. * A most compelling story, a clever mixture of drama, melodrama and thoroughly satisfies expectations. ‘“The story contains numerous sur- prises that are sure to register and is told logically and coherently. Be- ginning with brisk action and a tense situation, it builds steadily and de- livers the surprise finish convincing- ly and effectively. Anng Q..Nilsson, Raymond Hatton and Wallace Beery are particularly strong in support, though every member of the cast conducts himself picely in his porformance of the role assigned to him. Published without especial bluster and ado, it is, never- theless, a strong attraction and cer- tain of winning favor.” DOROTHY GISH’S LATEST. Dorothy Gish is at the Elko thea- tre Friday and Saturday of this week in “Out of Luck,” her latest Para- mount picture. It’s about a superstitious young lady who started and finished one romance for her girl friend, then nearly ruined her own. Something novel in the way of plots and fun galore is provided. The sup- port.is excellent. THE EXCHANGE: EDITO By Cy Perkins, Jr. . Interesting stories—real and unreal—as told by the editors of ‘the press of Northern Minnesota, “retold, rehashed and commented on by this editor. The mail order house known as “MonteiWart & Others” is ;jmaking quite a campaign to sell stock to readers of the country press,; ; ‘We no- tice that a number of our .good brothers are selling display space to this institution.. Well, there’s no- thing much to say. Suppose.their money is just as clean . as other money, but we believe that our citi- zens should be encouraged to buy stock in local institutions. This will tend to build up the home town rather than tear down, and we're for the latter. ¥ Tom Frankson has filed for.gover- nor. ‘We like Tom alright, but, there are other fair charmers we'd like to dance with. Wonder to what the Northern News alludes? We'll probably get more detail later. The St. Cloud Journal Press says that we have had quite enough of colege professors in running the gov- ernment. Brother Eastman.uses no sarcaism when he says it ,and this kind of critism is by far the most ef- fective. ° " The Gonvick Banner calls atten-|’ tion to the fact that the war ended ‘over a year ago and adds, ‘‘we are still cackling around like a bunch of pullets trying to lay the firgt egg.” -| Brother Jones, you’re not .the only one whose neck feathers are.becom- ing ruffled. . cpemm And now we learn that the so- called president’s message 'delivered to congress last week, wasn’'t his work at.all, but that of the cabinet done under the direction of Secretary Tumulty. No wonder there.was no- thing to it, but, Beautiful Sunshine. —Northern News. 5 The less Mr. Tumulty has’ to say about the democratic party, the hard. er it will be for other ‘political parties. ’ Charles Scheers of the Akeley Her- ald runs a headline thus: ' “Dirty Skunk Called Doctor.” The article relates an instance where the doctor suggested sending some of the sol- dier ‘boys in a certain hospital to the work house. We'll say, he’s-'a dirty skunk. i e No matter how much we ‘fjay de- sire to. forget him, old man Carranza| - just keeps right on shakifig his whiskers in our faces and asking us what' we are going to do about it, and we seem to dkedt. ... . . The Best Way. If the show of anything be good for anything, I am sure sincerity is better; for why does any man dissenible, or seem to be that which he is iiot, but because he thinks it good to have such a quality as he pretends to? For to counterfeit and dissemble Is to jut on the appearance of some real excel- lency. Now the best way in the world for a man to seem to be anything, is really to be what he would seem to_be. —Tillotson. Clover Barometers. The ordinary clover and all its vari- eties, including shamrock, are’ Barome- ters. \When ruin is coming the leaves shut together like the shells of an oyster. For a day or two before rain comes their stems swell to an appreci- able extent, and stiffen so that the leaves are horne more uprightly than usual. This stem swelling when rain is expected is a feature of many flower- ing grasses. Subscribe for The Pioneer DR. J. W. DIEDRICH DENTIST Offiee—O’Leary-Bowser Blag. Phones—Office 376-W.
