THE TWENTIETH CENTURY LIMITED Mean Levels + We heard a couple of our bright and shining lights talking about mean levels recently, but not being close enough to hear all of the conversa- tion we are at a loss o know just what they meant. But when it comes to talking about “mean” levels, how about the height of fashion. That’s mean, we'll say. —On the Blind-— From the Country A couple of Bemidji men, so it is reported, traveled to the Twin Cities in their horseless carriage and soon after arrival were accosted by a pa- trolman because they failed to dis- play a license number plate. One of the “birds from the country” told-the cop that he was sending for one, and right away the cop told him not to get too fresh. Isn’t it strange what lack of proper environment will do? —Some Don’t Call It 'That— Just for Practice A suggestion has been made for some of the once motorious “Reds”| that like to play with dynamite by| hurling - bombs—let them come up to northern Minnesota and make use of | their “‘art” by assisting in the stump | blowing. You might call that a little | constructive criticism. —Or Destructive— Picturesk i | “Mors“Bull” The above picture is still a differ- ent kind of bull than that shown in| this column Friday. Still another kind of bull Monday. —Have Plenty Left— Looking Before Leaping A stranger in the city noticed one of our bow-legged clothing mer- chants standing on a street corner a few days ago and acting rather sus- piciously. After watching him for several minutes, he approached the clothing dealer and said, “Go_ahead and jump, if you want to.” Isn’t it funny what an impression bowed legs will give a stranger? —And Also the Owner— Even Admit It The Little Falls Transcript says that the Elks put on a wonderful min- strel show there this week. And, as is customary with the order, the Elks even admit that they were good. This was where Mr. Kidwell, the travel- ing man, sang. —Mr. Kid Well— Why Not Storage? “And that's what we are paying rent for,” exclaimed an angry user of the telephone as he heaved the re- ceiver back to its ornamental posi- tion after endeavoring for at least five minutes to get the party he want- ed. Why not just call it storage? —1It Costs the Same— The Auction Barker— Belgw is another list of items added to the “auction sale” as they appear- ed in an Otter Tail county newspaper recently: “Poultry—One Republican rooster, has pep; one Democratic rooster, he doesn’t crow like he uster; 4 dozen hens, with eggs; 40 spring chickens, coming six years old; one single comb hired girl (some chicken), 7 oldl hens, can vote. “Machinery—1 rolling pine (Mrs. Jiggs' style), separator, with|mort- gage attached; narrow toed corn cul- tivator; 2 bull rakes; 1 cow rake; sulky wife; DeLaval hay loader with| 40 rods of wire; Dear corn planter; Gillette corn harvester; road drag, never used; and International riding saw. —Owner Still Sailing— BUNLOWE SAYS WES STUDY CLUB BANQUET IS ENJOYABLE SOCIAL AFFAIR The banquet given by the Woman's Markham hotel to the members and their husbands was a very pleasant social affair. The tables were laid for about forty guests and a four-course dinner was served, after which Mrs. L. B. Wilson acted as toastmistress, and Rev. L. P. Warford, President M. W. Deputy and H. Z. Mitchell responded to toasts. This completes the club’s activities until fall. TO CELEBRATE ARRIVAL OF SETTLERS IN RED RIVER The fiftieth anniversary of the ar- rival, in the Red River valley, of the firet settlers in 1871, will be cele- bated in an appropriate manner this year. The celebration will be giv- en by the old settlers of Climax and surrounding territory, on June 8, at the Estenson school house. There is to be a big community picric and orogram, it is announced. It is ex- pected that Semator Ole ‘Sageng, Judge Grindeland ~and other good speakers ‘will be present. SETTING IT RIGHT An article appearing fdn' Thurs- day’s Pioneer stated that the Bemid- il Floral Co. had taken over the Webster greenhouse. . The informa- tion intended to :he conveyed was that Messrs. Peterson and Sykes have rerted the greenhouse from Mr. Web- ster and are operating it. Mr. Wieb- ster still is the owner of the prop- erty. Could Dare Anything. According to an authority,” “onions contaln more calories than some meats and make an {nvigorating soup for convalescents.” After nibbling at a few scallions, eating onlon soup and topping off with steak smothered in onions, the most dellcate invalid should have a heart for any fate.

SHUY-DOWNS, BECUZ W FACIORIES ARE RESUMING AGN LEGION EXPLAINS HOW T0 RESPECT-THE FLAG _— In view of the fact that Memorial Day is not far off and that other im-] portant holidays are approaching, the American Legion-has issued a bul- letin for publication explaining how to show proper respect for the Amer- ican flag. It is as follows: The Flag should be raised at sunrise and low- ered at sunset. It may: be. raiged at other times but should never. be left out over night, except when it is un- der fire of any enemy. On Memorial Day the Flag should be -displayed at half-staff from sunrise until noon, and at the peak from noon until sun- et. ¢ In raising the Flag to half-staff or half-mast, it should always be run to preadth of the Flag. In retiring it, it should first be run back to the peak, then ‘retired. It should never be al- lowed to touch the gmnml 4 ngen the “Star Spangled Banner” is be_mg played or ‘sung, stand; and remain standing at attention in silence pntil it is finished. When the Flag is passing on parade or in review, if you are walking, halt; if sitting, rise, stand at attention, and uncover. The Flag should never bé worn as the whole or part of a costume. Asa badge it should be worn over the left breast. In decorating, the 'Flag should never be festooned or draped. Always hung flat. If hung so stripes are: horizontal, the. Union should be in -the left upper. corner. - If hung perpendicularly, the Union should be in the right upper corner. ‘When the national Flag and anoth- er flag. fly from the same pole, there should:be -double halyards, one for each flag.

When the Flag is placed over a bier or cas- ket, -the blue field should be:-at the head. If used as an altar covering, - the Union should be at:the right as you face the altar, and nothing should e placed on the Flag except the Holy Bible. . The Flag should never be re- versed except in case of distress at sea: ¢ " THE PIONEER WANT ADS BRING RESULTS INVITED AND Program at 10 O’Clock 3 7 of stumps in one blast () Basket Lunch at 11:30 on an Acre of Stumps at 12:00 Nbws Weekly intend to take Moving Pic- tures of the Demonstration r J.
