Congressman Isaac Siegel facitiously remarked, “They are travelling de luxe.” For the benefit of doughboys who went overseas to fight for democracy—and, incidentally, to kill Germans—it may be said that: Plenty of white linen was provided for the tables in the big mess hall on the transport, so that the reds won’t have to eat off the bare boards. _ A special pantry was built with up-to-date coffee urns, so ]Ell‘nma and her buddies can get their hot coffee when they feel ike it. They have honest to goodness linen sheets, white pillow cases and real mattresses for their bunks. (The doughboys had standee bunks.) They are getting the same food as second class passengers get on liners—considerably better than the Yanks had when they crossed. About the only things the government neglected to provide for them, a petty officer on the ship said, was valets and servants. Congressman Siegel said he understood the Buford was going to Russia via the Kiel canal. He thinks the reds will be landed at some port where they will be able to get into soviet Russia. It will stop at Antwerp to discharge cargoes for Amer- ican ships now in Germany. ' —O——— COCKROACHES TO THE FRONT. The latest stunt in profiteering floats in from Chicago, and it’s a piperino. - A window washer has solved the problem of the high cost of living at cafes and restaurants, by the use of the despised and lowly cockroach. When he goes out for a meal he takes a roach along in his pocket. He orders a whale of a meal, gorges himself to reple- tion, then slips the roach into the food he has not consumed. Then he takes the dish to the cashier, points dramatically to the roach, blows up, and stalks indignantly out of the res- taurant without paying his bill. It’s a great stunt. e ! Down in Mexico everybody is profiteering in sugar. But in that they are only following our own noble example—so why kick? ' e England and France are in complete international accord. That’s more than America is, even with itself. e e Old Man Santa will cheer many a lonely heart this Christ- Going to run him a close second, brother? ‘mas. NEWS OF THE traction is Miss Pickford’s latest pic- ture made for First National Ex- hibitors’ Circuit. As Mavis Hawn, a mountain gir! @ THE BEMIDJ! D This is a fortunate day. It is a good sway under which to make plans and take steps toward launching enterprises for the new year. Again the stars predict th: T AILY PIONEER at schools and colleges will oc- cupy a more prominent place in national affairs.

Children born today will in responsibilities. likely be generous but lacking (Copyright, 1919, by _‘g}lg_V&Lheeler Syndicate, Inc.) Miss Pickford is given a part calling for a great amount of versatility. Probably in no other picture is she called upon to depict so many varied roles which demand that she act the murderess, the school girl, the so- ciety girl and various other charac- ters. The story hinges about the efforts of Mavis to avenge the death of hér father. of the murder it is necessary for-her to overcome many obstacles, chiefly those of city grafters, unwholesome parental influences and an unscrupu- lous mountaineer who marries her mother. Despite the scores of dramatic in- cidents in the picture there is ample opportunity for Miss Pickford o weave in humorous comedy situa- tions in a most interesting and timely manner. CAN’T OUTWIT CUPID. The famous insurance firm of Lloyds has the reputation of taking some great betting risks, but in ‘‘Love Insurance,” the Paramount picture starring Bryant Washburn, which is to be the attraction at the Elko the- atre tonight only, they are represent- ed as treading on mighty thin ice when they insure the wedding. Of all the risks in the world, love is the most uncertain, which the theme of “Love Insurance’” proves in a most delightful manner. A i SUPER-FEATURE TOMORROW. “The Miracle Man,” famous super- feature photoplay, starts a four day run at the Elko theatre at 3 o’clock matinee tomorrow, Christmas day. There will be a daily matinee and two night performances throughout the run, with special orchestra music each evening. Patrons are urged to be present at the start of each show —as advertised elsewhere. : “GAY OLD DOG” TONIGHT. The Grand theatre, in presenting “The Gay Old wog” today and, to- morrow is giving the public_one of the photo play treats-of the year. Hobart Henley, the producer-director, produced and directed “The Gay Old Dog” from the original short story by Edna-Ferber, a writer of the day who stands in a class by herse.f as a portrayer of life, _ The outstanding feature of the story of Jimmy Dodd, the hero of “The Gay Old Dog,” is its truth. -Jimmy Dodd is real. How many peo- ple are putting aside their own hap- piness to give their all-for others, only to have it unappreciated. Then came the day when Jimmy was free; when he could live his life as he pleased—and he did. He became a “‘gay dog” and indulged in his every Iheart’s desire with a happiness that iis your delight as welljas his. You'll laugh and cry with Jimmy Dodd. who is excellently portrayed | by John Cumberland, late star on i Broadway in e worid’s most famous i comedi-3, “Fair and Warmer,” “Twin ‘Beds," and “Up In Mabel’s Room.” DR.

A large audience at thg Rex theatre last night lived again their childhood age when Jack Pickford appeared in the absorbing comedy drama, “ln TWrong,” a picture preduced in the Jack Pickford studio, a First Na- stional Attroction. It will be shown again tonight. It is the story of a typical country boy who is always “in wrong,” until chance makes him a hero. it is a picture of the rag doll days, the ol swimmin’ hole and school day loves, with their joys and sorrows just as you went through. There will also be a Billie West comedy in two parts. Second Release Through SUSPICIOUS OF OPALS? 1f even the thought of an opal ring caused cold chivers to dance from one end of your spine to the other and the sight of one of the rainbow colored gems developed an immediate desire in your make-up to run a mile, and you suddenly discovered that the girl you hoped to marry just adoréd opals and insisted on that character of a stone as an engagement present, what would you do? Douglas Fairbanks has found the solution in his latest United Artists production, “When the Clouds Roll By,” which will be shown at the Rex theatre Saturday and Sunday, be- cause it is onme of the big obstacles in his path to happiness, just the' same as a score of other supersti- tions which follow him from one end of the picture to the other.
