DATE FOR FIRST LYCEUM NUMBER HAS BEEN CHANGED Announcement has been made that the date for the first number of the Lyceum course which is being given under the auspices of the Woman’s Study club has been changed from October 27 to October 28. On this occasion Bohumir Kryl and daughters will appear. They have proven themselves one of the most worth while and delightful mu- sical organizations ever offered ly- ceum patrons. Mr. Kryl is one of the most prominent cornet_players in the world today. Miss Marie Kryl at the piano and Miss Josephine Kryl, violinist, promise a delightful prog- gram. FORMER BEMIDJI BOY TO APPEAR AT GRAND MONDAY Paul LaBounty, a former Bemidji boy, well known and remembered for his activities in athletics, being cap- tain of the first hockey team ever or- ganized in Bemidji, besides playing baseball and football, is in the city visiting relatives after an absence of eight years. Since leaving Bemid:i his experi- ences have been varied as a perform- er. Twice he nearly lost his life, once when he was with the Patterson carnival company when he was at- tacked by a lion ‘which was being trained, and again when he suffered an accident in his juggling with fire. While visiting in the city, Mr. La- Bounty and Mrs. LaBounty, nee Win- ter, will appear at the Grand theatre on Monday and Tuesday in the per- formance that have won many com- ments of approval from the press, thruout the east, where they appear- ed on most of the important vaude- ville circuits, as LaBounty and Win- ter, in a comedy, singing and talking act, and as Prof. LaBounty in a fire juggling and fire eating novelty. William Russell in a story of the great outdoors, “The Valley of To- morrow,” will be the picture offering on these two days. It is expected that a large number of friends of iur. and Mrs. LaBounty will turn out to see the Bemidji talent at work. . “Whap’s Your Hurry?”. 2t10-25 ALL FARMERS IN TOWNSHIP JOIN STATE FARM BUREAU A certain township in a certain county in Minnesota has 119 resi- dent farmers. Farm Bureau organ- izers went into the township and signed up 121 farmers for member- ship in the Minnesota Federation. ““How's that?” someone may ask. The answer is that the organizers not only enrolled the 119 farmers in the membership of the federation, but two hired men as well. J. 8. Jones of University Farm, state campaign director, say that in many localities 85 per cent of the farmers solicited are joining the fed- eration. Six groups of solicitors, each under the direction of an ex- perienced leader, are now at work in various counties. Each group is made up of from 10 to 14 men. Twenty organizers will be thrown into the campaign in Hennepin county next week. 2t10-25 “What's Your Hurry?” “Lotus Eaters.” Few flowers have been more identi- fled with the world's history than the mysterious lotus of Egypt. The phrase “lotus eaters” is a common one in lit- erature, and is used to describe those who live in a dream world. The food made from the dried seeds of the Egyptian variety seems to have had an effect similar to varlous' opium products, and once in the clutch of the drug the lotus eaters forgot both past and family, and went rhooning about, oblivious of demands made by society, kin, or even their own physical wants. - [ Bulrushes Found of Value. As a result of a German professor's discovery that the roots of the ordl- nary bullrush contaln as much as 30 per cent of cane sugar, special dredges are now being built for the purpose of harvesting them, reports Popular Me- chanics Magazine. The roots grow in thick horizontal masses, and in one part of Germany are believed to un- derlie everywhere a tract of marshy land comprising 500,000 acres. Though sugar is the product chielly sought, secondary processes yield alcohol and a nutritive cattle food. From the Juice there is made, also, a strong beer resembling porter. — Washing Machine Activity. Next to the automobile manufactur- ers, the makers of washing machines are now the greatest tonsumers of cop- per. The ytility companies, which in normal times are large users of cop- per, cannot buy much .now because they can't get the money. But wash- ingz machines are heing turned out by thousands, In an effort to meet the shortage of labor. and copper enters largely into the construction of most ""’"I mumn ,,,”m,,f.fl”"? /, |1 BAPTIST CHURCH 10;30—Sunday school. 2 11:30—Morning worship.

High Mark Set During War. Official statistics for the fiscal year 1920 demonstrate that this country "has been able to keep its trade In chemical and allied products very near the high mark set during the war, de- spite the loss of markets for purely war supplies and, despite the pressing demands that must be met in the do- -mestic market. Such is the conclusion reached by Hopkins, a well-known statis- tician, writing in the Journal of Indus- trial and Engineering Chemistry. “In almost all lines except muni- tions,” he writes, “the exports in 1920 exceeded in value those of 1918, a fact that can be explained in some cases, perhaps, by rising prices, but which nevertheless warrants the assertion that the position has not been weak- ened. These exports, which very greatly exceed those of the last nor- mal pre-war year, are made up almost entirely of manufactured products. “Imports have more than held their own and comprise raw and partly man- ufactured products wequired for fur- ther advancement by American chem- fcal manufacturers.” Davy Jones’ Rich Cargo. A diver was sent down recently at New York to locate a case of machin- ery that had fallen into the river. As soon .as he reached the bettsm he signaled that he wished to come up. When his helmet was removed, the first thing he said v “Wh the number of the case?” There were so many cases at the bottom of the river that he didn’t kuew which cne be- longed to his employers.

Recent experiments prove fhag, con- trary to the general helief, mosquitoes do not thrive and. multiply in foul, stagnant water. fmfact, mosquito Iar- vae actually lose vigor and die when surrounded by decomposed vegetation. Whether this is due to bacterial ac- tion on the larvae pr to an excess of injurious gas due tgithe decomposition has not Dbeen ascertained. At any rate, swamps are not guilty of encour- aging mosquitoes, and clearing those swamps’ does harm.—'opular Sei- ence Monthly. “What's Your Hurry?” DATE CHANGED For the First Number of the Lyceum Course 2110-25 BOHUMIR KRYL and Daughters will appear Thursday, Oct, 28| Instead of the 27th, as previ- ously advertised—this first attraction will be given at the Methodist Ghurch Thursday, Oct 28th 8:00 P.M.
