Thank you very much for bringing it in. Send us all you can write.” —Aesop’s Film Fabes. j But this same editor is far from harm now. They took him away to the insane asylum without further examination. —No Doubt About It— Modern Home Defined The newly elected sheriff of a nearby county states that home is the place where modern sons and daugnters sleep when everything else | is closed. —Aint It A Fact?— Baby Is Learning “Baby doesn’t know much, but father can’t wear mother's might- gown and fool the dear child,” de- clares a prominent father who has evidently tried it. —Pity Poor Papa!— Probably It Was Hives Old Map (browsing in book-store) “ ‘Las® Days of Pompeii’ —what d he die of?” g Bookseller—*“Oh, I dunno—some sort of eruption, I guess.”—Razoo. —Indeed He Di We Had Some Once Picking her way daintily through the locomotive plant, a young wo- man visitor viewed the huge opera- tions with awe. Finally, she turn- ed to a young man wno was showing her through and asked: “What is that big thing there?” “That's a locomotive boiler,” he replied.

MITED over Slow Up Speed Cops Commissions for motorcycle men policing the highways and fees for local justices will become largely a thing of the past through the adop- tion of another proposal by the high- way department to the legislature. The plan is to take away the incent- ives under which some local omcials have been making easy money at the expense of the reputations of their communities among tourist and other highway users. The change is for the benefit of sane drivers, however and in no way to encourage speed- ing or other traffic law violations. MINNESOTA WOOL POOL IS ALREADY UNDER WAY (Continuen From Page 1) fect of the pool acted as a powerful leverage on the increased prices ob- tained by every producer of waol in the state. Wool buyers had to meet the prices for wool made possible by the advances of the managers of the pools. Thus to assume that only half the state’s total clip was helped and that the average increased price was no more than that which men who pocled even low grade obtained, the net dollar-and-cent value of the pool'to farmers of this state was $75,000. Actually, the saving is far more than that amount. The pérmanent organization meet- ing ‘will 'be held January 4. Until the following temporary I serve: Simon Braun of - Glotfelter of Water- .

METHODIST AID DIVISION HOLDS MEETING FRIDAY The Miscellaneous division of the Ladies’ Aid of the Methodist church will meet Friday afternoon at the ‘home' of Mrs, A. E. Hodgdon 1011 Dewey avenue. The chairman, Mrs. J..B. Minnick, requests that all work for the gale that is completed be brought to this meeting. | SATISFIED USERS LOWD IN THEIR PRAISE FOR - DIAMOND POINT PARK (Continued trom page 1) lakeshore as possible, since thé maj- ority of' the tourists pick out this camping site for that reason. Letters received of late from sat- isfied users of the camp are numer- ous, and the following 'are.but a few of the many. From F. E. Smith, State Railroad Inspector, Minneapolis:— “Kindly accept my hearty congrat- ulations upon your having one of the most up-to-date tourist camps in the state of Minndsota. The way order is kept in the camp and' courtesy extended to the visitors ranks it among the best that I have ever had the pleasure of visiting and my work in the Industrial Commission neces- sitates my taking in the camps of sixty-four railroad division points in the state of Minnesota and I believe 1 can give almost expert testimony on the matter of camps. “You are inded fortunate in being situated on the beautiful Lake Be- midji where it is always cool and where good fishing is plentiful and while improvements might be made in conveniences for the traveler, I believe they will come later as these camps are at the present in their in- fancy. “Your camp is no-.doubt a paying asset to your city and I know it is well advertised because everyone I meet who has had the pleasure of camlping there: are.' telling their friends about it and I am sure bus- iness will be better next year than in the one just closing. 5 “Thanking you for your kindness to my family and myself during my twelve-day stay there and wishing you a successful year in 1923 and hoping that I may have the pleasure of visiting you at that time.” From Omaha:— “We are just back from our camp trip through Iowa and Minnesota and we wish to express our appreciation of the kind treatment we received while in camp at Bemidji. We camped at many nice places but we like Bemidji the best and we would be glad for you to let those know who are in charge, of our feelings about the very nice camp.” Minneapolis:— “I enjoyed my trip and stop at Bemidji better than any place on the trip and will try to make it next year.” Montevideo:— “After seeing a good many tour- ists camps through the state I wish to drop you a few lines to let you know that your city park and camp site at Bemidje was one that was ap- preciated and one that our city should feel Jroud of. Many other camps we visited certainly did not:-leave the good impressions that yours did. ‘I also wish at this time to thank you for the good will and kindness shown us on our visit at your camp and 1 am sure that your city is making no mistake when you were appointed to take care of the tourists visiting at our place.” F. A. Countryman, Watertown, S. It certainly speaks well for the people of Bemidiji to maintain such a lovely place for the free use of utter strangers. I believe though that the city will reap its reward.” Tracy, Minn.:— “We stopped at nine different camps on our trip but found noth- ing to equal Diamond Point. Be- midji should be proud of her tour- ists camp.” From A. D. Bitting, Monticello, Minn. (Cedar Grove Farm.) “My brother and I went to Hib- bing upon leaving Bemidji. There they have a very good pl to camp with two or three featur:s which De- midji might copy. One is a tour- ists sheltér with tables, stoves, clee- tric lights and evén a wash boiler, wringer and broom. It was raining when we arrived so we made good use of it. The other’ redeeming feature is wood boxes around the grounds with lids to keep the wood dry. We came home by way of Du- luth, there the camp grounds are six miles from the heart of the city and not to be compared with Diamond Point for convenience. I thing Be- midji s tio be congratuated upon hav- ing ‘such a splendid place and also upon the good drinking water which was by far the best I found on my trip.” E. B. Bergquist, Supt. of Schools, Little Falls:— “A line of appreciation for the courteous treéatment received while under your care at camping grounds. It’s a great ‘ad’ for Bemidji.” 3 A. 'W. Holt, Minnéapol “Arrived home' Friday - morning after a fine ‘trip: Of all the places| visited, our s{a\y at ‘Bemidji was the most cnjoyable: Hope to havé/y chance again to make Bemidji a 'vis- it. We thank you for ithe courtesy shown us while there.” “I am sending you.the picture of ‘Pete’, the moose, we took with your| kind permission at the wonderful camp. I sure value that picture for I can look at it and think of the wonderful reception we received from you on our visit at the beauti- ful camp at Bemidji. It impressed us so much to_find such kindness to strangers as was extended us on all our trip and it Has been the result of our planning to sell our posessions in Chicago and go north™where the people do not live just for the almigh- ty dollar but have a little time to make lie worth while for the other fellow. I hope I see you again next year, and wish you in years to come compound interest on all our kindness to others.” . R. J. Dodge, Inkster, N. D.— “I just thought that it would not be more than fair to you and the people of Bemidji to express my gratitude towards the way you en- tertain people who are traveling through your country. I was thru a number of towns in your state and no “where ‘did I find the friendship shown as in Bemidji. It certainly is appreéciated.” o LONDON'S UNEMPLOYED FIGHT WITH POLICE (Continued from page 1) bies whoithrew their-barricade ac- cross the, énd of Downing Street. In 1920, when the unemplpyed demonstrated in an -extraordinary manner, their armies converged upon Whitehall from every direction, some coming down the embankment while others approached from Victoria street. The first clash was unmark- ed by the use of firearms. London police even when riot calls are sounded are not permitted to car- ry revolvers. ! The unemployed, who had gathered in great numbers in the Square about the foot of Nelson’s monument, coming in small groups from the east side of the city where they found shelter for thé night, attempted to start a machine down Whitehall. They were met at the north end of Whitehall at a point 250 yards from Bonar Law’s residence by a determ- ined cordon of police, some mounted, drawn up four deep. The demon- strators®“tried to rush into the of- ficers but their leaders crumpled in a heap before the blue wall, while those behind could only shove good- naturedly. Mounted police charged with tru Jheons and demonstrators scurried in every dircction to keep from beneath the feet of the police forces. Many went down. Some woundea by blows, were trampled by | their fellows in their Flight.

A c¢opy of the recently published book, “The Iron Puddler,” was shown the author being James)J. Davis, the founder of Mooseheart and now the U. S. Secretary of Labor. The book | is in the nature of an autobiography and is described as being interesting andg having valuable sidelights on matters of labor and capital. ¢ The lodge voted to have snotherl lunch at is next meeting on Dec. 5.} The office , of outside guard being vacant through the member holding it having left the city, John Matlund, the club steward, was named for the office. The name of Nick Demas was drawn for the attendance prize. Diec- tator Mitchell and Secretary C. B.

PINE INDUSTRY OF U, MENACED BY NEW PLAGUE (Continued trom Page 1) i case of older trees, the tree may sur- vive a few years, but its ultimate death is inevitable. According to the National Lumber Manufacturer’s Association, the pres- ence f the ‘disease in the Northwest< ern. forests menace timber worth $228,000,000 on;the stump, and five or:six times as much to the tributary population which lives off the lumbers ing industry. The whole future of lumbering and its dependent indust- ries’ " Northwest’s greatest industries are threatened and pending plans for reforestation are imperilled, _Atis estimated that the great white pine regions of Idaho, which contain over 19 billion board feek of wéstern white pine are in immediate danger of infection. The Idaho forests re- present all but 3 billion feet of standing timber of this kind. Sugar pine in Idaho, - California and Oregan, it is feared are also sub- ject to the present menace. If both are attacked, over 77 billion feet of the existing 98 billion of white pine in the whole United States. will be menaced with rapid extinction. If the rust gets well under way, it is believed that the only hope of saving the forests of 2daho will be to! cut timber, as rapidly as possible in || order to géve it before it is too late. In the meantime an aggressive fight will be waged to eradicate the =in- fected currant and gooseberry bush- es in thé region, which act as ‘the “hosts”: to ‘the deadly “rust.” Greatest apprehension is felt among the lumbering industry over the outcome of the battle which is about to be:waged, and measures for which will be decided at the confer- ence now in session. It is pointed out that if cutting is to be resorted industry will be vastly disturbed by- the in- |evitable forced, wholesale marketing f cutting will first begin. No other iumbering districts will be able to compete with the whole- sale unloading of Idaho pine, it is Aside from this problem of Idaho, the fate of other districts menaced by the “rust” is also to be decided- The present conference therefre, it is believed, will have a decisive influence on the future of the Pacific Coast pine forests and the pine lumber industry.
