poker resting In his hand. He was
found murdered this morning, and l
have been engaged on the case all day
called in by Scotland Yard"
Have you any idea how the crime
was committed, and why?"
None; we are all working in the
dark. There are Tour Of us engaged
on It; three men from Scotland Yard
and myself"
Browning paused. There are some
extraordinary features about the case,
features which contradict one another.
At half-past 8 he had breakfast with
his wife; at 1918 he went into his
study; at half-past he was found on
the floor dead, a half-smoked cigar be-
tween his fingers. Death must have
been instantaneous, since the look on
his face was a normal one"
Browning ficked the ash of his
cigarette. I'VE can really tell moth
ing until after the post mortem to-
morrow. He may have died of heart
failure; one Of the men from the yard
is inclined to that view. Personally,
I think he was murdered"
by someone in the employ Of a for

He vas silent for a moment. Then,

The next afternoon at S o'clock
Browning returned from the post NOR
tenn examination.
II was right on one point" he said
to me on entering. Lord Quinton
died from the effects of poison. The
next thing is to find the murderer"
That evening we received a visit
from Inspector Turnbull OF Scotland

Browning handed his cigarette cas-
across the table. First of all, In

What Accoun1ancy Means.

Accountancy is not and never can
be a matter of abstract knowledge to
be transferred by means of lectures,
but is the art of knowing how to sup
ply that knowledge to the require
ments of business under very varying
conditions. 1t is essentially something
that cannot be taught in lectures or
classes, but can only be acquired as
a result of careful individual study
and a reasonable amount of actual

The judges of the contest were
Prof. McIntire, superintendent of
the Crookston city schools, Rev. F.
J. Barackman of Blackjack and Rev.
Keihm of Walker, and the summary
of their findings and markings for
place were as follows:
Roy Blood of Grand Rapids and
Dona Davis of Park Rapids, tied
for first place in the serious selec-
ton; Hiram Simons of Bemidji,
third in the serious selection.
J. w. Peterson of Akeley, first in
the humorous selection, Emil Engels

Park Rapids, first; Grand Rapids,

fourth; Cass Lake, fifth-this was
the final standing of the contesting

The general expression of all who
attended the contest was that the
declarations were all of a particu-
larly high character and were de-
livered in a manner that did great
credit to this section of the state.
While the findings of the judges
is not questioned, there were many
who were of the opinion that Hiram
Simons Of this city should have been
given first place in the serious selec.
ton; in fact, Professor McIntire, of
the Crookston city, schools, unhesi-
tatingly marked the Bemidji boy

Thirty odd years ago the govern
ment of the United States sent
General Hazen then chief of the
signal corps and a small staff of
army officers, across the Mississippi
river to spy out the country that is
now known as northwestern, Mime
sofa, North and South Dakota and
eastern Montana. They went, and
when they came back their reports,
concisely summed up were "A great
alkili desert that is fit only for In
dians and Buffalo," Today this
same desert is the home of many
thousands of people and yields
many millions bushels of grain. How
was it done? By the unceasing, unre-
lenting, untiring industry of the
early pioneer.
