OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS On Monday the start will be made for the Salvation Army drive for the coming year. This is the only means the Salva- tion Army will use for maintaining their work in Bemidji for the coming year. Their work is known everywhere in the world, little need be said about it, it speaks for itself and speaks loudly. It is a good cause—none better—and should be generously supported. The contributions should be gener- ous. . From the man who cannot,afford more than a dollar, it will be as thankfully received as fifty, but from the man who can give five dollars or ten dollars or fifty or one hundret}, that is what should be given. i Warm words of commendation are encouraging, but they . will mot feed the hungry, clothe the naked, heal the sick or reclaim the unfortunate. The Salvation Army is doing this and doing it better than any other organization. Help them help others. S ASREE A little child is born—a girl. 1t lives, and grows, and goes to school, and in time becomes a beautiful young lady who looks good to the eyes of men. She is a good girl, pure in thought and act, but richly en- dowed with the fire of youth and life. She is admired, petted, praised and courted by men—and envied by women. If she is wise and circumspect—a Soloman in petticoats— she may go through life without blemish in the eyes of the world. But if she makes cne slip—commits even one small indis- cretion—though the act may be innocence itself, her reputation is in the balance, with the chances ten to one it will be ripped to tatters. o Such is the way of the world—for women. v ‘Another child is born—a boy. 1It, too, develops into one of life and spirits, and persues the way of most boys who travel the road to man’s estate. rom boyhood to manhood there are many pitfalls for the ynwary, into some of which he falls. . Thero is a certain charm to these pitfalls—these .illicxt pleasures—which induces him to continue along the forbidden road. He makes many slips—commits many indisc¢Eetions—hits the high spots as he rushes through life. . But his reputation does not suffer—he earns another in- stead. He becomes a man of the world, and is considered a live wire. s Society beams, he yawns, and God frowns. Such, also, is the way of the world—for men. m_——————_—__—— OVERHEARD BY EXCHANGE EDITOR Strictly Spcaking. From the Cedar Rapids Gazette: “I would strictly like it understood hat the scandal that has been reported on K street west about Jones is not Marie A.

To, the Public: City boys, bathing in the creek that runs through my place a mile or two south of Eau Claire, stole apples from my tree and broke it down and are stealing plums though they are not yet ripe. 1 pay for my farm and pay taxes on it and if I miss any more of my crop 1 shall get a bulldog to protect my property. Henry Martin.—EauClaire Journal, . o Now Will You Make Fun of Henry? That will be enough of you! The next time you crack a joke at “henries” and “tin liz and “pocket edition gas wagons” and that sort of rot, just take yourself out behind the shed and take a swift kick at yourself. Right on the front page of the Daily Virginian is a perfectly correct United Press dispatch connecting the drop in general merchandise prices of from 10 to 20 per cent, with Henry Ford's announcement of a drop in the prices of his well-known common or garden variety of personal and individual transportation device. You fellows who have been making the most howl about the high cost of living should make it a practice to stop, half face to the right or left as the case demands, take off your hat, place it across your left shoulder in solemn salute, and mak profound bow, every time you sce a Ford passing.: You should do th especially if you have been in the habit of riding in a car twice as long and three times as heavy and four times as costly, that burns up six times as much precious gasoline. Dad burn yeh! Don't let me hear you knockin’ my ‘“henry” any more! —Daily Virginian. out ———0 Hereafter the boy who wants to be president will probably apply for a job asicub reporter.—Red Wing Republican. o It is most important that the state have a reliable, well balanced man in the attorncy general's office. Clifford L. Hilton is such a man, while his Nonpartisan league opponent is the limit of the other extreme.—Anoka Herald. o A type foundry advertising a few secondhand presses for sale says: “They won't last long.” Honest, to say the least.—Stillwater Gazette. o— Lookout Below. The “peak of high prices” having been passed, the ultimate consumers had better rope themselves for the dizzying descent, and keep an eye out for bargain avalanches. “One country, one language and one flag,” is the amended ritual of the Grand Army of the Republic. And the greatest of these is one language, for if you have that you have the others. . Immigrants at Ellis Island are piled like cordwood.

LFGISLATION NEEDED AGAINST THISTLE The invacion of the sow thistle of all parts of Minnesota is steadily pro- grescing, according . Selvig, superintendent of the Northwes School of Agriculture and Experi- ment Station at Crookston. Mr. Sel- vig urges that special attention be. given this maiter at ence in order to prepare a plan of control for legisla- tive action. The easiest method is to prevent its getting a foothold in coun- ties which are vet immune. Legisla- tion for community action to eradi- cate the weed as distinct from indi- vidual action, is required for sections where the sow thistle already exists. There are several successful meth- ods of eradication. The great prob- lem. according to Mr. Selvig. is to have all interests concerned follow one of these pilans. The fact that the zow thistle is a periennal, that its seed is spread by the winu and that it has entended its invasion already to central Minnesota, evidence enough to justify a state-fide move- ment for its control and eradication. NEWS OF THE THEATRES REX THEATRE SATURDAY- SUNDAY—NAZIMOVA PLAYS IN “THE HEART OF A CHILD” In ‘““The Heart of a Child,” a spe- cial production adapted’ from ¥rank Danby’s novel of the same name, Na- zimova comes to the sereen of the Rex theatre Saturday and Sunday in a role that is different from any of the wide variety of characters she has portrayed so maravelously in pre- vious triumphg. It is that of Sally Snape, an Eng- iish girl from the slum streets of Lon- don who finds ‘herself orphaned at the most critical period of her life, and left to face alone, without any other aid than her unsophistication, the struggle of maintaining the world’s respect. In her support is an exceptionally able cast, with Charles Bryant, adapt- er of the novel to the screen, as Lord Kidderminister; Ray Thompson, Nell Newman, Victor Potel, Eugent Klum, Claire Du Brey, Jane Sterling, John Steppling, William J. Irving and Myr- tle Risbell. Ray C. Smallwood di- rected the production, with Rudolph J. Bergquist in charge of the' camera. The effectiveness of the pictorial ele- ment in the play is due in great mea- sure to the special art effects by Allen Ruoff. OLAIMS RECORD FOR 3 NUMBER OF POSITIONS ! Not counting Uncle Sam, with whom he was intimately assoeiated for twenty months, Jimmie Harrison who appears in “A Seaside Siren,” a New Christie comedy, featuring Fay Tincher, which comes to the Rex theatre Saturday aud Sunday, claims to hold an actorial record in having worked for only four “bosses.” He started in stock in Chicago and re- mained a year. Then he appeared with Leoncre Ulrich in “Bird of Paradise” for thirty months, and with James T. Powers in vaudeville for a year” Then he joined Christie with whom he has been ever since, except during his war service. REX—MONDAY AND TUESDAY She imagined she was Salome, dancing before King Herod for the head of John the Baptist! Yet she was a modern woman surrounded by every luxury. What caused her hallucination? Find out by seeing Hope Hampton, the Texas beauty, in “A Modern Salome” at the Rex the- atre. It is a masterful picture, di- rected by the famous Leonce Berret. ‘When her husband’s secretary wou(n’t flatter her the woman vowed vengeance. What did “Salome” Van- dam do to Harry Torrence? It con- tributes the smashing climax to “A Modern Salome,” the sensational phutoplay ,starring., the beautifyl ‘Hope Hampton, at the Rex theatre. Two men were in her room and / yher husband demanded to know which one had insulted her. She lied and accused the innocent one. Why? It’s all explained in “A Modern Sa- lome,” starring Hope Hampton, at the Rex Theatre. See it and be thrill- ed by a powerful drama that com- bines the excitement of high life of teday with the barbaric splendor of bygone ages. A family was broken up; five lives wrecked, by the woman’s headstrong demand for admiration, before she % |coNsTA NCE TALMADGE IN “FALL OF BABYLON” “The Fall of Babylon,” David Wark Griffith’s magnificent spectacle, wherein more than 125,000 men and women appear, has been secured as the special feature attraction at the Grand for Monday and Tuesday. Mr. Griffith’s “The Birth of a Na- tion,” and “Hearts of the World” have established this dramatic ge- nius as America’s foremost producer of unusual entertaipment, and it is therefore not surprising to learn that in one scene in “The Fall of Baby- lon” Mr. Griffith shows four thous- and revelers at a bacchanalian feast. Among the prominent players are Contance Tdlmadge, George Fawcett, Mildred Harris, Tully Marshall, Pau- heard the voice of conscience. Did she heed it? See “A Modern Sa- lome,” starring beautiful Hope Hampton, at the Rex theatre.. It is a photoplay of sweeping dramatic ef- fect and so vivid that you will never forget it! H. B. WARNER APPEABS AT THE ELKO THEATRE TONIGHT H. B. Warner, the celebrated actor, again shows his versatility by his artistic characterization of the lead- ing role in “Uncharted Chainels,” a Jesse D. Hampton production releas- ed by Robertson-Cole, which closes at the Elko thegatre tonight. He in- terprets in c ncing fashion the aiff erienced by a young man of wealth when he finds himself suddenly penniless on tne death of his father and goes to work in the factery formerly owned by his par- ents as a plumber’s assistant. The adventures he meets with while wear- ing overalls makes a story of inter- est and charm. . Other attractions at the Elko the- atre tonight are the special musical program played by Mesdames San- born and Riggs, and the comedy, “The Paperhanger.” JANE NOVAK STARS IN “THE GOLDEN TRAIL” Jane Novak, with her cameo-like beauty never appeared to better ad- vantage than in “The Golden Trail” which comes to the Elko Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. She first plays the role of the most popular girl in the college town, and later as the faro dealer of a gambling den in a notorious dance hall in the wind swept Alaska. y She has appeared numerous times with Bill Hart and Sessue Hayaka- wa. One of her most recent suc- cesses being with Hobart Boswortly the well known screen player, in the drama *“Behind the Door.” Jack Livingston plays the leading macculine role with Jean Hersholt portraying the part of the villain. Among the other well known players in the cast supporting Miss Novak, are Bert Sprotte. Jean Hersholt, Otto Matiesen and others.

MADGE KENNEDY STARS IN PICTURE AT GRAND Madge Kennedy, featured by Gold- wyn, has never appeared to better ad- vantage than in her latest picture, “The Girl With the Jazz Heart,” from the story by Robert Shannon, which is'running at the Grand tonight and Sunday. The reason may be that she plays two roles, one that of the title, the jazz hearted damsel, aund the other that of a distinctly opposite type She lezves notaing io pe asked in either .part, and the “Madge Kennedy fans” will be hard put to decide whether they ljke her better as a demurre Mennonite brunette or a dande-loving action craving blonde city girl. ‘The story of “The Girl With the Jazz Heart” isn’t intended evidently to teach a moral, Neither is it a de- fente of *‘jazz.” So these who dop’t care for the tom-toms and rag-time needn’t be alarmed. It appeals be- cause it is strietly alive from the be- ginning to the end, and because it is so thoroughly American, and up-to- date American, at that. Incidentally, those who haven’t as yet had a chance to see the shimmy as it is done Dby an expert, get that chance when they see “The Girl With the Jazz Heart.” The Goldwyns have supplied this element by hiring the best in that line in the person of a former New York show girl, acknowledged the best shimmier on Broadway. 1t is a good laugh producing film, and better than ninety per cent that are shown us these days.
