HAS LARGE DEPOSIT Yet, the Deposits At the First National and First State Banks Are Increasing. The Grand Rapids postal savings bank, the first one in this. county, was inaugurated July 14 and Deputy Postmaster Radtke, who is in charge of this department, informs the Her- ald-Review that the bank now has 15 depositors, mostly foreigners, while their. accounts aggregate over $2,000. Another bank was opened at Bovey Friday. In speaking en the postal bank, Cashier Aiken, of the First National bank, said: “As can be seen by com- paring our last statements, the de- posits have increased at the First Na- tional, both in the checking and time accounts and I do not believe the postal bank has secured one de- posit that we could have gotten. Busi- ness conditions, as you know, are quiet at the present time and when our deposits show an increase in times like these, we are more than satisfied.” Cashier L. M. Bolter, of the First State bank, is also of the opinjon that the postal bank has not injured the local banking institutions. He said: “I have come to the conclusion that the posta] banks do not come in- to competition with the state or na- tional banks in any way. They cater to foreigners, mostly, and as you perhaps know, the rate of interest paid by government banks in the foreign countries is greater than |that paid by banks owned by citizens therefore, when emigrants come Ov- er here they naturally deposit their money in a government bank, if there is one in the town. The Grand Rapids postal bank has not hurt our business in any way; in fact, I do not know of a deposit we have lost on account of it. Our last pub- lished statement shows a substantial increase and this is certainly indica- tive the local banks are holding their own.” A man slipped on the street one day last week and fell breaking his leg and the usual crowd gathered around the prostrate fellow. ‘Oh, he’s a soak,” said one. “Aw, he’s just a bum,” said another. But some- one noticing his clothes, said no he must be somebody he’s wearing a Royal suit gotten at The Art Tailors. RARE Ur EA So they cared for him tenderly.

At the meeting of the board of county commissioners Saturday the petition of the residents of the town of Nore, located in the ex: treme northwest corner of the coun- ty, asking that they be permitted to form a new school district limited to the confines of that township, was granted. Nore was in district No. 1. HOME. BUILDERS At Annual Meeting Monday Even- ing All the Old Officers Were Re-elected. At the eighth annual meeting of the Grand Rapids Building and Loan association, held at the office rooms of Kremer & King Monday evening, all the old officers and directors whose terms expired, were re-elected. C. H. Dickinson, manager for the Itasca Mercantile company, is presi- dent; F. E. King, general manager In commenting on the withdrawal of the town of Nore, Director Bur- gess, who is president of the school board of district No. 1 said: 3 personally, do not care to keep any part in of district No. 1 that cares to withdraw. I do, however, believe that an equitable basis of withdraw- al should be established. For ex- ample: A township that for years has not paid its way, finally, by set- tlement and increased valuation reaches a time it can pay its way. |Such a township should not be per- {mitted to withdraw without taking in some territory that is not pay- ing its way. Then again, in Nore, the township that withdrew Satur- day, a new schoolhouse was _ built costing $1,500. That township should be compelled to bear a portion of the burden of the cost of such a school. “The board of directors, after very careful consideration, are concluding plans that will make it advantageous for most of the territory to stay within district No. 1. A basis is being worked out whereby high school students throughout the dis- trict will be partially supported while attending school. This is a matter that the board cannot of course, de- cide by themselves, but it is a recommendation that will be brought up at the next annual meeting. “I believe district No. 1 gives as good service as any district with which I am acquainted that is mak- ing progress under such unusual cir- cumstances. Educators from the southern part of Minnesota state that longer terms of school are held here than in their section of the country.” CATHOLIC CHURCH OPENS SUNDAY Mass Will Be Said for the First Time in the New St. Joseph’s Catholic Church. The announcement has been made that mass will be said in the new St. Joseph’s Catholic church Sunday, Oct. 22. On that date the first holy communion will be administered to a large class of young people who have been preparing for the rite dur- ing the summer. The new church, which was erected at a cost of $20,000, including the decorations, statuary, altars, etc., is a monument to the indefatigable work of Rev. Ft. Buechler, pastor of the parish, who has labored early and late to obtain funds and to se- cure the necessary interior decora- tions. A $2,500 pipe organ was the last thing to be installed and the church is all ready for services. It is unique in the annals of church history that everything will be com- plete and in place when the church is opened.

For Sale At Liebermans case of the state, ex rel McDonald, vs. Riley and the supreme court has fixed Oct. 24 as the date on which it will make findings in the case. This is the outgrowth of the ar- rest of “Jack” McDonald at Deer River for a minor offense. McDon- ald’s attorneys secured a writ of habeas corpus and the case was argued before Judge Stanton at Bemidji. The judge held that the evidence was insufficient to hold him on the charge and ordered his release, filing a memorandum cover- ing six typewritten pages, giving his reasons therefor, as this is a point that often comes up. The case was taken to the supreme court by Coun- ty Attorney McOuat in order to have this point definitely settled. “Go west, young man, and climb up with the country.” Sure thing, but if you wear ROYAL clothes you won't need to climb, you'll feel so well you'll just float up. See the line at The Art Tailors. of the King Lumber company’s line of yards, is vice president; Fred A. King, of Kremer & King, is secre- tary; Emil Litchke, proprietor of the Grand Rapids Harness factory, is treasurer. Senator D. M. Gunn, W. A. Rossman and Fred A. King were re-elected on the board of directors for a term of three years. The Grand Rapids association is a ‘strictly home concern. No outside capital is invested and the only sal- ary paid is to the secretary, $20 per month. There is no charge for office rent and therefore it is rated by the insurance commissioner as one of the best concerns of its kind in the state. The association has over 100 stockholders at the pres- ent time and over $30,000 in out- standing loans. COMMISSIONER KING WANTS GOOD ROADS Says Burden of Their Cost Will Be Borne By the State, Thereby Benefiting All. One of the strongest advocates of good roads in the north country is C. M. King, county commissioner from the Deer River district and chairman of the good roads committee of the Northern Minnesota Development as- sociation. Speaking on the benefits accruing under the Elwell law, which operates exactly along the same lines as the county ditch law, Mr. King said: “These trunk roads will be a big thing for northern Minnesota. Un- der the law, only one-fourth the cost is borne by the settlers: Of the balance, one half is borne by the state and the other quarter by the county. The law does not fix the boundaries of the land that shall be assessed to pay this, but it does state that it shall be paid in equal payments covering a period of ten years. Now, it is reasonable to sup- pose that all lands three miles on each side of the trunk roads will be benefitted and this will mean that for each mile of road, 640 acres of land will be assessed an equal part of this one-fourth of the cost. As the settlers have ten years in which to pay their share, a man ownjng 160 acres will not be called on to pay more than $1.60 per year above his regular taxes, or 1 cent an acre. “Since I was appointed chairman of the good roads committee I have been deluged with letters from set- tlers and their constant cry is bet- ter and more direct roads. The farmers have awakened to the fact that roads are the one thing that will bring in new settlers and there- by raise the value of land and pro- vide them with schools and neighbors two important things in the settle- ment of a new country.” SOCIALIST MEET AT VILLAGE HALL Judge Olof P. Victorien, who has been in the Socialist movement for the past 25 years and who for four years was Socialist organizer in Sweden, will speak at Village hall Monday evening, October 23, at 8:45 o’clock, taking for his subject: “Why Socialism Must Win.” There will be no admission charge and every- body is invited to attend. HOME RESTAURANT CHANGES HANDS A deal was made Saturday whereby, the Home restaurant, on Leland av- enue, was sold by Mrs. R. O’Leary to Mr. and Mrs. T. W. Lassard, who formerly conducted a restaurant at Chicago. Mrs. Lassard will have charge of the restaurant while Mr. Lasbard will still remain at Duluth where he is head waiter at the St. Louis hotel cafe. They thoroughly understand the catering business and are giving good service.

Morris always takes the the track in coming to school, and on this particular morning a freight bound for the east came along. The fireman was shoveling coal into the engine and a large piece fell within two inches of Morris’ head. Wheth- er it was done accidentally or inten-j} tionally, Morris will never know, but had it hit him, the chances are he would have never known anything more concerning this world. | Prof. Barish was on the sick for a few hours Tuesday.
