The Deer River High school basket ball team came to Grand Rapids Sat- urday afternoon unheralded, at least they were not expected by the local team, but a team was hurridly gotten together which defeated Deer River overwhelmingly by a score of 35 to 7. Brandon starred for Grand Rapids and put up a fine exibition. Next week the Herald-Review will publish a schedule of games Grand Rapids will play during the season. B. P. Munson and George Currier returned yesterday from a trip into the Bear River country, where they bought logs from a number of job- bers. Mr. Munson says it pays to advertise in the Herald-Review. The angouncement) made in this paper that Mr. Munson was in the market for all pine logs tributary to the Miss issippi, has brought many jobbers im to see him. He is taking every- thing offered at the highest cash prices and he is getting about every- thing available. Munson pays cash. Those who are patronizing the Gem theatre are certainly well pleased and paid, for the management is not only giving better pictures right along but im connection are giving away some beautifully decorated china, On Sunday and Monday night last the pictures portraying the drama entitled “Drink” taken from the novel by that name, and which is from the pen of the eminent French author I. Emil Zola, was worthy of all the praise that lovers of good acting can give it. In fact all films or pictures produced by the Pather people of the Film D’Art class are masterpieces and well named. In producing this drama it consumes two full feet of film containing 2061 feet in all, and something extraord- inary in this line. The comedy run was good, clean, up-to-date, showing how a mischievous boy could make it uncomfortabld for an old bachelor who had rome to visit his father at his seaside home. On Tuesday and Wednesday evening the pictures were in the dramic line, one “In Old Ken- tucky” the other “Ben’s Kid,” the former, especially was very good showing two brothers during the Civil war, one in the blue the other the gray. The confederate the car- rier of sealed orders, compelled to go through the federal lines is captur ed by the brothrei n blue but escapes to his home and and is protected by his mother and saved from the fate of a spy and after the close of the war is finally welcomed home by all who are gathered to meet the union boy who has returned with honors all is union. A beautiful sympathetic story truthfully and exceptionally well enacted. “Ben’s Kid” purely a western comedy drama full of heart interest and pathetic as well as laugh able. The management certainly de- {gerve prais), for their efforts to please. TO GIVE CANTATA FRIDAY EVENING Grand Display of Costumes Will Be Seen In Biblical Play, Queen Esther.

CHARITY BALL IS GRAND SUCCESS Substantial Sum Was Netted at Coleraine for Cherry Mine Sufferers. , Friday evening a aharity ball was given in the high school auditorium under the auspices of a joint citizen’s committee of Coleraine and Bovey There was a merry party of young people of the twin towns present, whc enjoyed the dance music furnished} by the Western Mesaba orchestra, under the leadership of Prof. Charles \Abel. He and J. W. Daily, a member of the United Miners’ association, were the prime movers in planning this event. The orchestra donated the music, there was no charge for the use of the auditorium and the print- ing was free, so the entire proceeds of the ball will be sent to the suffer- ers of the Cherry mine disaster. The children assisted in the sale of charity ball tickets, for which ‘prizes were offered. Margaret Morgan of Coleraine received a pair of skates from the Coleraine Hardware compan and Christine Levine of Bovey re- ceived a sled from the Bovey Hard- NOBBY SHIRTS For Men and Boys 50c to $3.00 Mittens Imported Suede lamb lined $2.75 Black bear skin men’s driving MALMO MIS 5 2.45) C ae nee --- 84.50 Fancy Vests Men’s very latest patterns and styles, all sizes, from 34 to 44, $3.25 to $5.00 FIGHTS TO GET BACK HER CHILD Deer River Woman Gains’ Point in Struggle Against Daughter’s Adopted Parents. Judge Stanton denied the motion of respondents in the case of Myrtle Ferguson and her mother against Mr. and Mrs. John McDonald of Deer River, to squash the writ of habeas corpus proeeedings whereby it is sought by the complainants to com- pell the McDonalds to produce the three-year-old child of Myrtle Ferg- uson in court and show cause why the baby should not’ be returned |to tts mother. Attorney H. W. Stark for the ss plainants moved that the child placed in the custody of the pte until the result of the habeas corpus proceedings, but this was denied by the judge on the grounds that the child is all right in the possession of Mr. and Mrs. McDonald for the prasant. Myrtle Ferguson and her mother seek to gain posses ‘on of the form- er's|"baby, which was adopted by Mr. and Mrs. McDonald at Bemidji pefore Judge Spooner two years ago. The defendants allege that the moth- er at that time gave her consent to the adoption of the child, but at that time gave her name as Myrtle Ber- serton. The mother assefts that the name of the child is Eva Ferguson and that she never willing and know- ingly gave her consent to the adop- ware company. About 100 tickets were sold at) 50 cents each. 2002 BOYS SUITS AT COST J, P, ODONNELL’S ALL WOOL Snappy Styles Plaids and Checks $4.50 ——Suits for ——$3.45 $3.50-———Suits for $2.48 $4.00-——-Suits for——$3.19 Remember the boy for tion of the child by anyone. LITTLE CHANGE IN STRIKE CONDITION Railroads Claim to be Moving Freight Satisfacterily—State Federation for Arbitration. There is little change in the switch men’s strike situation. The railroads claim they are moving freight satis- factorily and are steadily improving the service, while the strikers dispute this claim. The executive council of the Minne- sota State Federation of Labor met and adopted resolutions favoring ar- pbitration of the switchmen’s strike, and asked Governor Eberheart’s as- sistance in securing it. The council received reports from every congres- sional district in Minnesota to the effect that freight was not moving ywith tthe usual celerity in those dis- WHILE AT “POPULAR i There are lots of prices in’ between Xmas;Neckwear Largest assortment in the city 25¢ to $1.00 Bath Robes $4.50 to $10,00 Smoking Jackets $6.00 to $10.00 House Robes $10.00 to $15.00 Mufflers A multitude to select from 50c to $3.00 Handkerchiefs {n Cotton, Linen and Silk, with or without initials << 10¢ to 7S5e .
