The action of the Bemidji Commercial club in lending its hearty support for a bridge at Red Lake, and other county improvements, is most worthy of hearty commendation. The action shows some individuals of the county that Bemidji's business men are for everything that is of benefit to the county* and willing to lend all possible support for objects that, are worthy and for the good of the people. -o- PROBLEMS OF THE WEATHER MAN. The problems of the poor weather man are becoming more complicated each year. The mere guessing of whether or not it is going to rain on a certain day or during a certain week has changed to the much more risky bet of whether or not we are going to have winter during December, January and February or during June, July and August.

Virginia endorsed the national amendment yesterday, to be a tough time in passage of the ^endorsement of the na^ tional dry amendment, citing an attack to be made by several members. If the endorsement was defeated it would be to the discredit of the great state of Minnesota. Governor Burn- quist has asked it. Its defeat would be a rebuke to him. According to accounts in the St. Paul papers there promises Idaho, Maine, Tennessee and Illinois ratified the amendment this week. Many other states did so long ago. Why can't Minnesota add its n^ame to the roll of honor In the recent election when the voters of the state cast their ballots to ratify the amendment several thousand majority were cast in favor. But the statute, framed by the liquor gang in the good old days, said that a majority of ALL votes cast was necessary. It was simply a case of miscarriage of the rights of the people. TOUGH GUYS. The Fort Wayne (Ind.) News deprecates any criticism which may be made because of the number of secret service men who are accompanying the president on his peace junket, declaring that it reduces the malign possibility of his being assassinated by some "insane crank or booze-mspired bol- shevik," and is therefore well worth while. Since the president insisted on making "the trip, perhaps it is, and when we see among those who accompany him the names of some we have for long suspected of being themselves bolshevikL we feel cer- tain that any precaution is justifiable. 1 & FUR COMPANY Bemidji, Minnesota Some alarm clocks are "tluds" The shell that doesn't explode may have thrown a scare into the soldiers nearby. But the alarm clock that you wind at night, and that doesn't go off in the morning, is a "dud" of the worst kind. It's a hopeless propositioncosts too muclTto repair, and is worthless as a getting-up device. These are alarm clock days^cold and dark in the morning. It's easy to sleep too late. Come down to Barker's and get a Big Ben, or other active alarm." These will get you up without failprove a mighty good investment. BIG BEN, $3.00 OTHERS $1.50 to $3,50 -X E.

THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER OLD AND NEW BATTLE NAMES Hard to Bestow Appropriate AppelU tlons Upon Conflicts Having Wide Pronto, There seems to have been little trou ble In the past in naming battles, al though even Waterloo Is called Qqatre Bras by the French. But on the whole a name seems to have attached It self to a battle quite naturally, tike Blenheim, Talavera. Jena. Leipzig, the Mile and Trafalgar. But In the^reat war, where a bat tle extended over weeks of time over a forty-mile front, Including many vil lages, and sometimes several objec tives In the shape of big towns, the difficult}' of naming a battle with a name that la universaUy recognised Is extreme. The names which have tctually set tied down completely and taken their places In history are the battle of the Marne, the two battles of Tores, the battle of Verdun, the battle of the Bight, the battle of Jutland, the bat tle of the Somme, and that seems al most all. t^The battles of the later phases'of the war have hardly settled down to a name yet. Probably the battle In which the Vlmy ridge was stormed will be known as Arras but the bat tle of Messlnes will probably be a sticker,' just as the Ghemin des Dames will live In French annals for all times. Perhaps the great battle which at the time seemed disastrous to British arms, commencing oh March 21. 1918, will go down to history as the battle of Amiens, while the battle of Oam bral may stand for all that heroic re. eovery which brought the British to their final victory AT THE THEATERS GEAND TONIGHT.. It 4s a common saying along the border "that one Texas Ranger can handle ten opponents." The Texas rangers aTe conceded to be the finest body of mounted men in the world. Roy Stewart portrays a member of this organization, appearing as "The Silent Rider" at the Grand theater tonight. Incidentally one of Stewart's most pleasant tasks Is that of making Jove to pretty Ethel Fleming and rescuing her from toer kidnaper. Charles Ray was seen in Para mount photoplay, "His Own Homo Town," at the Elko theater yester day and Will again appear in the Elko tonight. The photoplay at once dejuoftra.ted^ It popularity and greatly enhanced B^r. Ray's prestige asr a cinema star of the first class. The'theme-of the play is that of a young man, who, fighting against mighty opposition and after many trlajs, "makes good" in his own home town. GRAND TOMORROW. "The Hell Cat*'Oeraldlne Far rar's first western play declared ro be her greatest triumph in pictures, appears at the Grand theater to morrow and Sunday .matinee and evening. "The Jelly Fish," featur ing "Smiling Bill" Parsons, is also on the program., ELKO TOMORROW. Tom Moore, who captivated all America in "Just For Tonight" and SAYS HOT WATER WASHES POISONS FROM THE LIVER BvsryonO should drink hot water with phosphate In It, boforo breakfast To feel as fine as the proverbial fiddle, we must keep the liver washed clean, almost every morning, to pre-, vent its sponge-like pores from clog ging with indigestible material, sour bile and poisonous toxins, says a not ed.physician. If you get headaches, it's your liver. If you catch cold easily, it's your liver. If you wake up with a bad taste, furred tongue, nasty breath or stomach, heconifs rancid, it's your liver. Sallov* skin, muddy complex ion, watery eyes all denote liver un cleanllness. Tour liver is the most important, also the most abused and neglected organ of the bo/ly. Pew know its function or how to release the dammed-up body waste, bile and toxins. Most folks resort to violent calomel, which tea dangerous, sali vating chemical because it accumu lates in the tissues, also attacks the bones. Every man and woman, sick or well, should lrin each morning be fore breakfast, a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phos phate in it, to wash from the liver and bowels the previous day** indigesti ble material, the poisons, sour bile and toxins thus cleansing, sweeten ing and freshening the entire ali mentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. Limestone phosphate does not re strict the diet like calomel, because it can not salivate, for it is harmless and you can eat'anything afterwards. It is inexpensive and almost tasteless, and any pharmacist will sell you a quarter pound, which is sufficient for a demonstration of how hot water and limestone phosphate cleans, stim ulates and freshens the liver, keeping you fsoling ft day te ma day out. WW "Thirty A Week," is seen in a brand new role in "Go West, Young Man," by Willard Mack, at the Elko Satur day and Sunday. It's a Goldwyn pic ture! The stpry of ^enderfoot and his thrilling adventures in the great West. Authentic pictures showing Sur render of the German Fleet and special music evenings are added at tractions at the $lko Saturday and Sunday. "LEST WE FORGET"-REX. A large audience saw "Lest We Forget," an eight reej special de lux Metro at the Rex last night, and the classic was highly commended. It will be seen again tonight, last show. ingS. This magificent production gives in immortal form America's reason for making war'upon the Hun. It shows graphically the sinking of that great ship, the Iiusitania, resulting in a wholesale slaughter of the Innocents: The presence of Charles Frohman on that ill-fated journey has now be come a matter.of history. By his side was Rita Jolivet, who has given to the world not only bis last immortal words, but also the present mighty photodrama of which she is the star. About the sinking of the Lusitania has been woven a noble story, show ing conditions of the period both in America and in war-torn Europe, and an exquisite romance gives a tender human note to this great spectacle, the most powerful photographic doc ument of the war.

Unless-you are exteremely modest, th# Rex theater tomorrow will be no place for you, for William F8x will present George Walsh In. his latest pisture "I'll Say So." is by no means unusual for a motion picture to show a wedding'in fact it Is rather unusual if there is no wedding some place during the action. But for a handsome hero to deliberately marry his beautiful leading lady dressed only in hiswell, his B. V. D.'s sounds rather shocking. "Ell Say So" tells the story or the -patriotic American who volunteers but Is rejected by the navy and then, because he cannot stay out of it, works up a little private war of his own upon a couple of German spies, whom he discovers at work.
