Seeing the wind is a rare but easy feat. The object wherewith it may be seen is a common saw. On any blowy day—the wind being, say in the north—hold your saw with its ends pointing, one to the east, the other to the west. Take the saw as if you were going to cut the air upwards, and let the teeth, which are on top, tilt over till the flat part of the saw! Thanksgiving services will be held is at an angie of 45 degrees with the / chureh| horizon. You will then see the wind.| short notice in an artistic Looking along the teeth of the saw, you will see the wind pour over them over a falls.

They then went to Bemidji and again defeat ed hat team and by wimning from Hibbing Friday they established their claim to the championship of the range. The City team is considered the fastest in Northern Minnesota, having defeated the Duluth Tigers, Fair- monts and Spaldings, three of that city’s best teams, and Bemidji, who also had aspirations towards the championship. Basketball will now be the order of the day and although a High school team has not been formed, we understand two games have already been secured. A City basketball team is also talked of and Grand Rapids has material for a fast team. Will Present Play December 15. The Clerks’ club will present The Corner Store on Wednesday evening December 15, and are working hard to get it inp resentable shape. It is a three-act cometly-drama and the comedy and pathos are so blended they hold the entire attention of the audience. The comedy roles, that of Jimsy, Jasper and Otto are very laughable indeed and keep the audi- JAKE GOT THE MOOSE MEAT An Unwise City Chap Fell Into the Entangling Meshes of the | “Joshers Club.” During court week our pretty little town is visited by outside parties from throughout the county and often by those from distant portions of the state, and occasionally a wise guy gets mixed up with the “Josher’s Club,” but the members of that or- ganization seldom pay any attention to and much less often even dream of entertaining an outsider unless he be more than usually clever) with his talking apparatus and is willing to use it to the discourage- ment of others present by dissemin- ating wisdom. It happened like this: The victim had been in town some days, having landed here from a distant city. His extreme brightness was noticed by a member or two of the club, when they reported to the “full lodge’’ ask- ing that the guy might be invited into the presence of the bunch, which was granted. The fellow was glad to accept the invitation. After a jovial hour the subject of hunting was brought up. Being a city chap he had not been in the habit of feasting on game; was ex- tremely anxious to have a nibble at moose meat and was willing to blow himself to the limit if he could get achunk to take home with him as; a surprise to his friends, when he would swear to them that he had brought the monster moose into camp alone, | “skinned out” and he could piece of it He concluded th |could pack about pounds, at per, in his suit cas even if he j Were compelled to give some of his jclothes away a The “boss josher” of the club bought the required number of pounds pf beef at a butcher shop in town, grabbed a handful of whiskers from a stuffed moose head somewhere which he sprinkled generously over the meat and when it was unwrapped in the presence of the buyer he at once noticed the hair picked off the juisy morsel, saying; “Sure, fellows, that’s genuine moose hair.” He re- placed the hair carefully back on a damp spot of the beef and said: “I'll give each particular hair to a friend at home as a souvenir of my prowess.” He then bought some- thing for the gang and hurried to the train going east. and this is no fable. Exhibits Go Free. The Great Northern Railway com- pany has instructed its agents to ac- cept all exhibits which farmers desire to send to the National Corn Exposi- tion in Omaha, and send them to St. Pau) free of charge on regular bag- gage cars. For some time the Great Northern has been collecting these exhibits in a rat proof storage house in St. Paul and next week will load theni all in special baggage cars and take them to Omaha. President L. W. Hill will have personal charge of a large part of the work and every exhibitor is assured that his exhibit will be placed to the best advantage in Omaha. From all along the line of the road, the exhibits have been ence convulsed with laughter from’ The hunting season had just arriv-! going to St. Paul and as the exposi- start to finish.
