J PACETWO ™ THE BEMIDJI DAILY 18— PIONEER ¥ ¥ WEDNESDAY EVENING, MARCH 1, 1922 | “THE LOVE CHARM” AT ELKO | TONIGHT AND TOMORROW E ' {How many a “THE IDOL OF THE NORTH” | AT GRAND TONIGHT ONLY| The thrills of the days when the| gold seekers crowded the “trail” to Alaska are lived again in Dorothy Dal ton’s Paramount picture, of the North,” which returns for to-| day only at the Grand. The author has framed a story with all of the rough and ready atmosphere of the Canadian Northwest, much of the tion taking place in the Aurora Bore- alls saloon and dance hall of “Totemn City,” which is modeled after th Dawson _City of the gold rush days. Miss Dalton is seen as a dancer, who, because of her energy in “‘trimming” the miners, is called “The Idol of the North.” The minars seek revenge | on her by forcing her at the point of a gun to marry Martin Bates, dere| lict drifter to the Northwest. She suc- ceeds in not only making a man of him, but actuaily loving him. Edwin August plays opposite the star and | heads a clever supporting cast. Fickel Fancy, a Sennet? comedy completes the program. NAZIMOVA AND RFUDOLPH VALENTINO IN “CAMILLE”| “Camille,” the Nazimova produ«-‘ tion coming to the Grand theater o Saturday for a run of three days, is a modernized version of the famed Dumas play, adapted by June Mathis, who made the continuity for Rex In- gram’s_two productions for Metro “The Four Horsemen of the Apoc- alypse,” and “The Conguering Pow- ¢r.” Nazimova plays the role made famous by such great actresses as Bernhardt, Eleanora Duse, Clara Mor- ris, Rejane, Modjeska, Laura Keenc, Olga Nethersole and Ethel Barry- more.

The absorbing story told in this film drama is one of universal appea! for it carries one from the homes of tae rich to the hovels of the poor. 1t pictures in detail the peculiar ro- mance of a girl. rescued from the streets and a man, respected by his society friends, who stole in the very homeg where he was an invited guest. “WESTERN HEARTS" AT THE REX THEATER TONIGHT Cowboys and cowgirls and some of the best horses ever seen in a western drama are scen galore in the picturi-|! zation of “Western Hearts,” which ig the attraction at the Rex theater today. Those who remember Buffalo Bill and his sweetheart of the plains will have a pleasant awakening when they see how the modern cowgirl and’ cowboys make love in “Western Hearts.” “ROSE OF THE WEST" AT REX THEATER SATURDAY A play which, it is said, thrills wita vitel human interest will be shown at the Rex theater Saturday. It is a Fox play called “Rose of the West,” and is described as a vivid photopl to the northern wilds. The s are | laid in a country that is ited oniy occasionally by Indians and the pa- trol of the Northwest mounted police. The story is that of a brave wo- man who fights against the plan of her brutal husband to sell their daughter for a gold field he has se- cretly discovered. At one point the husband, absent for severel yea is supposed to be dead, and Rose La-| ganeral's oftice. belle is about o marry the head o the mounted police, when her hus- band reappears.

'he penniless cousin, the bereaved “in-law” of one sort or another, the impecunious step-child, the orphaned grandchild, even the unfortunate par- cut, too, often finds himself in the position of a pensioner on some more prosperous ‘‘connection” whose chil- iy attitude constantly repudiates the tenuous tie which binds them to- gether. Human interest abounds in this Realart picture, which is from a story by Harvey O'Higgins, with scenario by Percy Heath and supervision by E.mer Harris. Miss Hawley has for her leading man Warner Baxter, a handsome and personable young actor, a recent rc- cruit from the stage. Mae Busch, d Hawley, and_Sylvia Ashton is the aunt. Dick Rosson, who will be re- membered in *“Her Face Value,” also with Miss Hawley, has a good part, and Carrie Clarke Ward will be seen 2s the housekeeper. “THE LITTLE MINISTER” AT ELKO THEATER FRIDAY A beautiful Lady Rabbie—such is the verdict of 21l who have seen Betty Compson in the stellar role of “The Little Minister,” a Paramount pic- ture, which comes to the Elko theater next Friday and Saturday. Miss Compson was never lovelier, than in her gypsy characterization in this pic- ture. E. A. Bingham adapted the Sir James M. Barric play to the screen.

Mice as Travelers. ‘When Robert Burns calied a mouse a ‘“wee, sleekit, cow'rin’, tim'rous beastie,” he was probably not aware that a mouse Isn't the frall, helpless ; little creature it looks to be. Accord- iug to the discovery of the late David | Hutton, of Dumferniine, Scotland, the average mouse travels about ten miles a day. Some mice make real speed records, and cover even more ground | than this In 24 hours, Mr. Iutton found. There was one mouse in partie- ular, in his collection, that smashed all the long-distance records in mouse- dom by running 365 miles in 35 days. And all this marathon mouse required to keep him golug was a half-penny worth of oatmeal during the eotire period. Armistice Day Casuaities. There were 3,912 casuaities In the A. E.

BABSON, American Shfiniciun. The truth is that the schools are not educating our children at all today. Our children, our boys, are really being educated by the newspapers, the movies ' and the billboards. Now I am not blaming the news: : papers or the movie people or the billboards. They | are tending to their business, while we fathers are asleep at the switch. So we have got to educate our young men for busi- 3 ness. Ninety-five per centof the young men going out of \ \Li,?, the schools of Chicago go into industry or comwmerce, 3 X2 and yet 95 per cent of the instruction in the schools of Chicego is devoted to laying the foundation for the five per cent that go into professional and other lines of activity. Yes, this great clog in our | distribution system, this condition in the world today which is ruining ! bnsiness men, which is putting farmers into bankruptey, which is spread- ing havoc throughout our land, is due to the fact that our young people, our boys, especially, who are coming out of the school without the least idea of production, without the least idea of the fundamentals of produc- tion or distribution or the basis of business suceess. What would you do about it, you ask. Well, T have four suggestions to make. The first suggestion is to put religion back into the schools, . iell you that this idea that we can get on by kicking down the ladder by which our fathers and grandfathers climbed up won’t work forever. Our | ancestors did not come over to America with the idea of turning religion out of industry and education ; no, they came here for the sole purpose of putting religion in. The second thing we have got to do in training our young wsa for business is to develop principles and ground them in principles and in facts. The third thing T should do in educating young for their life’s work would be to teach them some of the basic laws of industry. T'he fourth thing I should do in training our young men for industry would be to encourage the people of Chicago who are now engaged in part- | time work. I would encourage the correspondence schools in Cliicago. 1/ would encourage the night schools of Chicago. I want to train young men while they are at work. N . —_——————— e ! 1ad been ieit mside.

This drum beats, so tradition has long main- tained, whenever the lake takes a life. Men say they have heard and counted the beatings to the exact number of crew and passengers lost in various sinkings of ships. Once only, it counted wrong. This belief in the drum and a case in which the beat- is said, has the drum ings failed to tally with the records of men, forms the basis for an absolutely fascinating story of mystery, to be printed as a serial in these columns.
