il LIMITED ¢ - Helping Him Out ¥ It is rather strange, when you get to thinking about it, how a merchant, who has been in business in Bemidji for a long time and during that time enjoyed only a fair trade, can get, the crowds to comg to his store when he decides to retire from business. It might be taken to mean that the public in general and the women es- pecially are always willing to help samebody go out of business. Why not. support these merchants all the time and nat wait until they get ready to retire from business? —Did It Ever Occur To You?— '!;io Musical Tone The meaning of a wiird in Chinese is indicated by the musical tone in which it is uttered. One word may have as maily as five different tones, each of which, when sounded, gives the word an_entirely different mean- ing. 'At that rate it ought to be yather easy for a man to swear in Chinese when attempting to start his second-hand flivver. —Providing He Speaks Chinese— Regular California Weather A certain winter visitor to Cali- fornia returned to Bemidji last week, in fact on April 1st, and an- nounced that he had brought back some nice weather. If we are to judge from the weather Monday, we are free to say that he brought back regular California westher. —Excepting the Fog— PROPOSE PLAN TO BRING ABOUT END OF STRIKE (Continued From Page 1) cause an organization of mine work- ers was completed last night. C. R. Stahl, officer of the White Coal com- pany at Stotesbury, today made denial of the report. (By United Press) Indianapolis, April 4. — Claims that thousands of non-union men are . swelling the ranks of miners on strike were made at headquarters of the United Mine Workers of America here today, Reports from non-union fields, ac- cording to officials, showed that workers were dropping tHeir tools to join the strike qf 600,000 miners, which started Saturday. PLANS SPRING TRAINING FOR BEMIDJI THIS YEAR (Continued From Page 11 University of Minnesota on May 19. Principal. Smith ‘plans on hoiding an interclass meet and also a fresh- man-sophomore dual meet. The dates, however, have not been announced. Expects 'Big Squal After his experience of last year with a comparatively green football team, Coach Smith said something would have to be done to give the boys more football than they could learn in the seven or eight weeks in the fall. Spring football was the only solution. This is the first time in the history of the school that spring football has been on the athletic pro-| gram. It is expected that all of the letter men of last year will turn out for the spring work besides a large number of seconds and many who have never been qut before. Coach Smith says spring football will not be the bore and hard work which is ex- perienced in the fall. He is going to dwell mainly on fundamentals.This wnl] include tackling, blocking, inter- {ermg, passing, receiving passes, punt- ing, receiving punts, side stepping, girop kicking, place kicking, stiff arm- ing, and rolling on the ball. It is also planned to give a very extensive practice in position play after the coaches have looked over the. material and have . picked the men’ whom they think:are the best qualified fon certain_ positions. This phage will inclyde all the. tricks of cach individual. position. The gridiron meh' will also be givery several lec- tures.and chalk’ talks and will be told of. the.rue changes as adopted by the intercollegiate rules committee which met in. New York recently. Spring athletic training is, in itself a capablg plan of keeping the athletes .. busy and allows them mo chance to Joaf and get stalé at their particular line of sports. With thid object in viewy Gopch; Spiith is endeavoring to catry out the wishes of the lettermen and it, i exyidcted that this plan will ypcet with the hearty approval of all persons concerned in any way.

NEW BARKER BUILDING HOUSES FINE OFFICES (Continued From Fage 1) in white enamel, four fitting rooms for optical work, two private offices, one general office and two smaller operating and examining rooms to- gether with closets and toilets. All rooms are equipped with the most modern devices including com- pressed air, gas, eleétricity, and hot- and cold water. An automatic air compressor used for ear inflation has also been installed. An apthalmomet- er, used for dilating a stigmatism in the cornia of the eyes, is an addotion to this modern office. Considerable new furniture and fixtures have been added for the ac- comodation of patrons, who will find here one of the finest medical es- tablishments of its kind in ths north- west. It is a regular hospital on a very small scale and many minor cases can be successfully handled here. All important and more serious cases will of course be taken to St. Anthony’s hospital as at present. Dr. Richardson has his eight-rooms splendidly equipped and we.i 2urnssu- ed and these.might be considered among the best dental quarters, in this section of the state. His quartets comprise a large re- ception room, and x-ray room in which has been installed a modern type x-ray machine together with diagnostic lamps and complete appara- tus from the standpoint of the pa- tient’s health, a well lighted operat- ing room fully equipped with modern dental cabinets, electrical, gas and compressed air devices; a lavatory and sterolizing room with 20 outlets for gas, hot and cold water, air, and electrically and fine nickel-top work benches and tables, an automatic still, electric motors and an oxygen heating apparatus. In addition there is a dark room, a supply room for surplus stock, and a business office. All in all these two suites of offices represent one of Northern Minneso- ta’s most’ modera medical establish- ments, which when well known should draw patrons from every section of the northern part of the state. All details will be arranged within a few,_days and visitors are extended a cordial invitation ta inspect these new medical quarters. HOUSE MEMBERS PICKING HEAD OF NEAR EAST RELIEF MAKES APPEAL Twenty-five thousand innocent children have been condemned to death by the will of the Amer- ican people. Such _Is the statement made by Charles V. Vickrey, Gen- eral Secretary of tbe Near East Relief, on the passing of a reso- lution by the ex- ecutive board of that organization cutting down tie ap- propriations for relief twenty-five per cent. “At the lowest possible adminigtra- tive cost,” says Mr, Vickrey, “the Near Past Rellef has been caring for one hundged thousand children, the home- less little orphans of the Near East The cut 'in appropriations, made neces- sary by the decreaséd contributions, means that twenty-five thousand equal- Iy helpless children now on our door- step must be refused admission’ and turned into the streets to perish of cold and@ hunger, There can be no other fate than that awaiting them. We are their only help and support. “Five dollars a month will commute ihe sentence for one child. And I do not belleve there is a man or woman ‘to a home in America who could not and would not give that much to save a little child.” STORIES TOLD OF WEBSTER Intereating to Learn That Marvelous Orator Was, After All, Much Like the Ordinary Man. Charles V. Vickrey - ‘We hear so much about the leonine appearance and the quence” of Danlel Webster that it is refreshing to read an anecdote that presents the man in a mere human and less Imposing light. Once, says a- chronicler of life in old Washington, Webster arrived late at a concert that the famous Jenny Lind was giving and entered just as she was to, sing Hail Columbia as an encore. When she sang the first note Webster jumped to his feet, and when she reached the chorus he jolned his powerful bass voice with hers. In vain Mrs. Webster tried to drag him back into his seat. He supported the singer in every chorus; and each time when the song was ended he made a deep bow to her and waved his hat. Miss Lind curtsied to him in return, and he bowed again. To the delight of the audience they continued the lit- tle comedy of etiquette for some time. One day when Webster was going to thelr little son to hear his father. The orator began in the thunderous tone for which he was famous. “Will any man dare to say—" he demanded and then paused to sweep his breathless FLAWS IN SHIP SUBSIDY (Continued From Page 1) sidy unjustly, but they wili insist that corigress *play safe.” Other “dangers’’ in the president’s proposal are pointed out as foliows: 1—The Shipping Board is now ad- vertising for bids on more than 1,600 ships, which board members admit, will bring “practically nothing” on the present market, Some house mem bers charge that they see in this sale a scheme for “handing” the ships to private concerns before the ship sub- sidy is passed in congress, after which the ships will double or triple in value. 2-—The subsidy plan authorizes the Shipping Board to sell ships on con- ditions the boayd prescribes, provid- ing it stays within a 2 per cent mini- mum interest rate and 15-year max- imum time limit. Under this clause it is cldimed, the board could sel ships to “influential” concerns, let them defer both interest and princi- pal payments for 15 years, and then give them subsidy aid in the bargain Tf the concerns'should fail before tie 15 years were up, all \ would get would be' for and greatly depre The government could s this way, it is claimed. 3—The Shipping Board v thority to set aside a sum notito ex- ceed $125,000,000 asa ‘construgtion Joan fund,” which it can loan A4, it plenses and_on terms the board sets. Under this clause, it is feared, ship concerns which borrowed money from the Shipping Board during the war and whose notes, now worth 20 to 25 cents on the dollar, are still held by the shipping board, could now borrow more money and buy back their old notes at, say 25 cents on the dollar. Thus, a concern which borrowed four million dollars during the war could buy back its notes for one million and “clean up” two million dollars on a { four million dollar deal financed en- divided ‘the cash prize of $2.50. tirely-with government money. audlence with a Jovian glance.
