In the Smaller Towns of the ‘Country. S A big town offers advantages. There -are unusual facHitles for spending ‘money, Impressive bulldings to suggest. Jnan’s importance and show houses where one may be entertalned, at a ;price, by experts in the entertaining {business.- There are smooth streets to -encourage the consumption of gasoline and smooth ‘ promoters to encourage the -cutting of -eyeteeth. There are pedestriaps wearlhg the latest styles ;and newspapers chuckling over the {latest scandals. . -But -there -are no -meighbors. -In-a city a good neighborhood is a part of town inhabited by people who have ;plenty of spending money. In a small town a good neighborhood is one in- habited by people who make good nelghbors. _A _good mneighbor is one who bids you good morning, calls to ask what 1hé can do when you are sick, borrows your garden tools, keeps hig chickens ahd children at home, never plays his phonograph after ten o'clock at night and takes a mild interest in all of your affalrs. He calls you Tom, if you “happen to be a Tom, and fecls free to enter your house by the kitchen -door {f that 1s the more convenieat way. Are there any such in great cities? ‘When the wife bakes and has unusu- ally good luck the best loaf goes to the ‘nelghbor. It expresses friendship ‘and her commendable pride in good craftsmanship. After a few days the loat returns in the form of a cherry .ple, hot-from the oven, or a bowl of dumplings ceoked in the home-made ‘ blackberry wine left from the botling of a ham. :If one of the children cuty .a.finger the neighbor hag lodine. He offers it freely, for tomorrow night he 'may-forget to bring home a can of to- bacco. ‘Small-town people are one big fam- 1ly. If their mode of life makes se- crets 1mpossible, 1€~ also lessens the- . number of things. that should be kept secret; and their Interest in one an oftier—an interest that might be very 'performance beginning at 7:30 and BEMIDJI ml-l 'MARKET - QUO’I‘A'HQ{IS. it GRAIN-AND HAY ' uEaTs :Mutton . . ...

Now, if you give your Mexican Indian her tortillas (cakes) and her beans with plenty of chill, she 1s perfectly satls- fied and scorns a more elaborate dlet.” —————— ‘The vaudeville program which is the regular Friday night attraction at the Grand theatre, opens tdnight with an Italian duo whose song num- bers must be heard to be appreciat- ed. Following this worthy pair, are Pearl and Hale, blackface comedians who sing a lot, talk some .and dance a little. Mahoney and Cecelia come next with their comedy skit entifled “A Sea-Side Flirtation” and the bill closes v& h Paula Armglrong and Co. in A Herculean .Surprise.” ‘Wm. 8. Hart in “John Petticoats” precedes the vaudeville with the first the second at 9:15. —_ ‘The Filipino, people are unanimous Jn their desire for independence. iWhenever they are called upon to de- posit their ballots they have always jratified this aspiration.

This Is exp]alned by the fact.that Constantinople sup- |= plies great quantities of cutlery to ‘Asla-Minor -and’other outlying regions of. the former Turkish empire, where table manners still have not been de- veloped, up to the standard of Paris.
