M’GUIRE HONORED BY GOV. EBERHART Appointed to Newly Created Re- clamation Board with McKenzie and Brown. Supt. A. J. McGuire, of the North- east Experiment farm, was very agree- ably surprised yesterday to receive notification from the governor's offi 8) that he had been appointed a mem- ber of the State Reclamation board, the bill for which was passed by the | 1911 state legislature. The other two members of the board are: W. R. Mc Kenzie, of Bemidji, and W. J. Brown, of Warren. The purpose of the board will be t clear up small portions on tracts of land that are offered for sale by the state, so the settler can raise a crop the first year and thus not be com- pelled to endure privations. $8,000 was appropriated for this purpose by the legislature and if the reclama- tion work proves successful, as it un- doubtedly will, larger sums will be appropriated each year. Supt. McGuire has long advocated the creation of such a board and his | appointment on it is a fitting testi-| monial to his general knowledge and | experience with the struggles of the settlers of northern Minnesota. The board will hold its first meeting next Friday at St. Paul, when a chairman and secretary will be elected.

Although he is not able at this time to give a list of the films, he announces there will be scenic, in-| dustrial and educational films and a good comedy reel. On this occa- sion, as on all special occasions, the doors of the theatre will be open at 6:30 o’clock and the first perform- ance will be given at 7 o’clock sharp. They will be repeated every hour un- til all are enabled to see the pictures and Mr. Comer states they will ac- commodate, the crowds, no matter how) late the hour. It is very probable four shows will be given. Too many cannot be given, for it is certainly a commendable cause and the action | of the management of the Gem should be deeply appreciated by the people of St. Joseph's parish.
