WHERE ALL THE
TOYS COME FROM
GERMANY WAS FORMERLY THE
CHIEF CENTER OF PRoDuc-
TIoN. v. S. NOW CON-
PETlNG.

Where do the Christmas toys come
from? is the question often asked by
those, who have passed the age of
thinking about the big Santa Claus
factory I'm the far North. In spite OF
the fact that its products occupy the
attention OF the public for only few
" eeks each year, the toy industry Is
among the greatest in the land. Up
until short time ago Germany led all
other countries in the production of
Christmas delights, but the United
States is fast coming into its own in
the matter of toy manufacture. The
great factories in this country are
proving TO be too great a competition
for the peasants of the foreign coun-
tries. There is an exception TO this
rule. however, in the wooden animals
the weird locking occupants of Noahs
ark and other strange forms of the
animal kingdom. No machine has been
constructed that can duplicate the me-
nageries as whitfield out by the poorer
classes of Germany and other foreign
countries.

Tauoht From Childhood.

The peasant children are taught TO
make toys from the time they are able
to walk. They commence by making
little rolling pins or some such simple
contrivance. II is life work with
them and they follow 1t the whole year
around. Representatives of wholesale
houses come around at certain periods
of the year and buy their products.
The toys they make are the best that
can be procured because they take so
much pains with them. yet they are
bought at ridiculously low prices. A full
barnyard set, with an array of half
dozen different varieties of animals,
will net the maker about cents. 1t
can be purchased in Duluth for per-
haps 20 cents.
The more substantial articles. such
as wash sets, furniture. hobby horses
etc. are nearly all made in the United
States. Nearly all the metal toys are
also made in this country. That is be-
cause the factories here are equal, II
not superior, to the German factories
The Question of Duty.

LIBRARY FOR COUNTY.
Large Morris Library at Dispos-
al of Whole County.

The Morris Library Board and the
county commissioners entered into a
contract on Tuesday whereby the
privileges of the Morris library are
extended to every person in the
county for a period of one year under
the county extension system, which
has been adopted in several other
counties of the state.
The plan was thoroly explained by
Miss Baldwin, secretary of the state
library commission, and thoroly dis
cussed by the two boards on Tuesday
afternoon.
That each person in the county will
be permitted to come to the Morris
library and draw books is only very
small part of the plan. The most i'm
portant feature in making the library
more useful is that branch stations
will be established at every convent
ent point in the county, and books
sent to this point regularly. Such
stations will be established not only in
the villages, but also in each town
ship, school district, or neighborhood
which makes a convenient center. To
this station a case of books will be
sent regularly in such number and as
often as circumstances require. In
due time this case can be returned and
a new set received.
To help defray the expenses con-
nected with the handling of these
books, the wear and tear of books and
the necessary purchase of duplicate
books, the county board appropriated
$500. All of this money will be ap-
piled to the county work, the City of
Morris will continue to contribute
81 900 per year for the library.
The offer by the library board to
thus make the local library the same
as county library was most liberal
one, and the county commissioners
deserve the commentator of the
country school districts for the ad'
vantages secured for them.

The above announcement was re-

joys a wide acquaintance in this coun-
ty, having lived here since boyhood.
While he is of the opposite political
faith of the editor of this paper that
fact does not prevent US from saying
that Mr.. Griffith would make a com
petent and obliging official. He was
deputy sheriff more than quarter OF

later assisted Mr.. Munro and also
served several terms as village mar
shall.

SAVED BY HIS GUARD
MOrOS Attack American Official
in the Philippines.

Manila, July 19.-Dean C. Worces-
ter, American secretary of the interior
for the Philippines, was set upon by
renegade Moros on the island of Pala-
wan ond escaped assassination only
through the alertness of his body
guard, who shot down the outlaws,
killing three of them outright.
Secretary of Interior Worcester was
touring the island, which is the most
westerly of the larger of the Philip
pine group bounding the Sulu sea on
the west, and was present at the in
stallatfon Of the new governor. In
anticipation of his coming a band of
Moros planned his death. Armed
with bolos, carefully concealed, they
laid trap for the secretary, who sud-
denly found himself the object of
savage rush.
Captain Moynihan of the scouts was
the first to recognize the hostile move
ment and, just in the nick of time, he
ordered the scouts to fire At the fUsil-
lade three Moros who led the attack
dropped dead, while several others
doubled up with more or less severe
wounds. The rest of them took to

St. Elmo to be Here.

Manager Peterson has secured a
strong company to present st. Elmo
here on Thursday, August 18th. The
Grand Forks Daily Herald says of this
company
"The George Amusement Co., which
presents the company which so pleas
ed has been playing all through the
States and the largest Canadian cities
lately, and has everywhere met with
a rich praise for their efforts.
"The company is a we'll balanced
experienced one. There is not hint
of over acting and there is no weak
place in the cast.
"The parts of "St. Elmo Murray"
and "Edna Earl'' around which the
main plot of the story centers, were
played in way above criticism by
Harold Salter and Ernestine Mohrie
respectively. Miss Van Camps work
was also of great merit in her role of
Mrs. Murray. The scenery and cos
tunes were beautiful.
"The plot of the play follows closely
the widely read book of Augusta J.
Evans, st. Elmo, and portrays little
country born girl who hears almost
the first unkind word in her live from
the lips of st. Elmo, the misanthrope.
A series of disastrous transfers, the in
nocent girl of the woods into the
splendid household where st. Elmo's
word is law. She loves him and re-
mains true to her love through count
less temptations. "St. Elmo" fights
against his love for the girl. He tests
her faith in every way, he plunges in
to more desperate affairs than ever,
but cannot escape the girls steady in
fuence for good.
"The story ends happily with the
conversion of ST. Elmo and his marri-
age to Edna"
