Ike is the father of thirty-three. lke has been married three times, and has three sons named John, one by each wife. When asked how he remrembered the names of all his children, Uncle Ike sdid he did not nced to know their names. A “come here, nigger,” is all that's necessary. Uncle ke owns 640 acres of land, and is never faced with a labor shortage. He has given many of his children par- cels of land, but never gave them a deed,, saying ‘“‘young fool niggers” would sell the land if they had a deed. An oil lease was recently taken on the land.

Untidiness exerts a demoralizing inflence. The farm building sites can be made spick and span, without expense, by cleaning up the winter’s accumulation of dirt and rubbish and by repairing:fences, gates, walks and buildings.' Time and money will be saved by going over the machinery and repairing broken or worn parts for the busy season. Flowers and even trees and shrubs can be planted at 8 small expense. A little paint will do wonders in freshening and bright- ening. Let’s all.get the cleanup spirit. It makes for more valuable farm and a happier wud Letier farm life. * SCHOOL REPORT Fourteen pupils w enrolled dur- ing the month of March in the Fon- tenac school in Dist Ne. 40 of Hub- bard county., The dail - tendance was eleven. 10se not ab- | sent during the month were Carl Schummer, Vera Jones, Harold Fish, Leonard Fish.

FILM PRODUCING TRUST BLAMED FOR BAD FILMS Genoa, April 11—Protests against the presence of Japan at Genoa were raised in the Economic conference's first political committee meeting this afternoon by George Thitcherin, head of the Russian delegation. Ishii of the Japanese delegation reported that the Japanese were here to stay whether Thitcherin liked it or not. Today when the confercnce was divided into four committees, Thit-- cherin addressing the political branch of the parley, declared Japan should not be represented at Genoa. He was not rightfully interested in strict- ly European affairs. The demand for Japan’s withdraw- al came as a bomb-shell to the delega- tion. It was the biggest surprise of the conference so far. Japan is a W. W. Hedkinson Explains Why He Believes Many Ob- jectionable Pictures Are Shown By ROBERT A. DONALDSON (United Press Staft Correspondent) San Francisco,, April 11—The real reason so many objectionable films are forced on the public is due-to the film producing trust, which is controlled by the big producers, ac- cording to W. W. Hodkinson, of New York, distributor and original organ- |izer of the Paramount Company. Hodkinso as been organizing the chibitors with a view to building an organization of exhibitors which will eventually be able to do independent buying. “The public gets poor films be- cause the producer forced them on the exhibitor against his will,” said Hodkinson. *The exhibitor, to main- tain his standing with the trust d tributor, is forced to accept objection- able films in order to get the one masterpiece the distributor controls. “The exhibitor does not want these poor films and often has to run them at a loss in order to get the one pic- ture which will make good money by packing his house. “Thus the producers and their dis- tributing agencies prebent public opinion, working through the distrib- utor, from setting the standard for films. The public wants better films but under the present system it can’t et them. “In my opinion there should be a few great selective distributing agen- cies to handle the entire output of producers, and to serve as a neutral control between them and the public. tition between producers, which is lacking now. The quality of pictures would go up, and their cost to the public would go down. “There are too many prouducers to- day who either fail to understand American ideals of life and conduct, or care nothing about maintaining them. “The present fifteen or twenty dis- tributing companies, practically all of them trust-controlled, mean teriffic) waste. Over $40,000,00 is thrown away annually through lack of co-or- dination of this work. If the 1,600 cxhibitors in the United States could | choose freely from one or two big| neutral distributing organizations tre- | mendous saving to the public and to the industry would resuit, “The exhibitors must organize and exert their buying power to force this issue. As soon as they do they will bring the producers to terms, and will force the present large output of morally objectionable films off the market.” At the National Exhibitors’ Conven- tion in Washington, D. C., in May, Hodkinson hopes to swing the d tributors behind a plan which will in- sure better films. SHORT COURSE TOMORROW FOR CALF CLUB!MEMBERS Members and prospective members of the' Beltrami County Calf Club, and all interested adults as well, are | urged to attend the short course of instruction which will be given in the agricultural rooms in the rear of the Crookston Lumber Co. reading rooms on Fourth street tomorrow. The forenoon session will be called to order at 10 o’clock and the afternoon session at 1 o’clock. Prof. L. B.

GIRLS MAY TAKE PART IN OLYMPIC IN 1928 (Continued From Page 1) he hopes to have entered about twenty large schools for girls. Standard events under the existing rules are the 30, 50, 75, 100 and 220- vard runs; 60, 65, and 100-yard hur- dles (2 1-2 feet hurdles) ; 220 and 440 yard relay races; standing high and standing broad jumps; running high, running broad and hop-step-and- jump; pole vault; 6, 8, and 12-pound shot puts and throws of basebail, basketball, hurlball (six pounds), javelin (Official Olympic) and discus (youth’s official). The committee insists upon medical examination of all competitors and close ‘supervision of -all meets. Women have already invaded the tennis, swimming and gymnastic branches of the Olympic games. The American team that made the trip to Antwerp in 1920 included a large number of girl swimmers, but' the Swedes and the Danes, in addition to the girl swimmers had an equally large number of gymnasts. A Cross country running and hurdl- ing long have been a field of activity for the French and British girls, who were urged to track and field athletics during the war as a means of prepar- ing for the hard work that the ex- igencies of the times forced them to s o. The European girls are making more of their advances because they compete in public, but the same ad- vances are being made by the Ameri- can girls and when the time comes that women’s events are added to the Olympic schedule, Uncle Sam can send a worthy representation. PROTECTING RESIDENCES (By United Press) Chicago, April 11.—Building con- tractors barricaded their homes to- day following fresh outbreaks in Chicago’s labor war. The homes of two contractors, both members of the Citizen’s Com- mittee to enforce arbitration awards for the building trade workers made by Judge Land:s, were partially de- stroyed by bombs during the night. Bombs _partially destroyed the homes of Herman Regan and Henry O’Callaghan, two of _the largest plumbing contractors in the city. O’Callaghan and his baby daughter, Jean, were seriously injured.

Frety, editor of an industrial jour- nal and by John C. McCarthy, attor- || ney.
