Importance of the Anti trust hat.

Importance of the Antitrust hst.
The antitrust act Is the expression
of the effort OF n freedom loving ppos
pie 70 preserve equality OF opportunity.
1t Is the result of the confident deter
mlnaton OF such people to maintain
their future growth 10y preserving un-
controlled and unrestricted the enter
prise of the individual. his Industry,
his Ingenuity. his intelligence and his
Independent courage.
For twenty years or more this stat
ute has been upon the statute book.
All know its general purpose and mp
proved. Many of its vlolators were
cynical over its assumed Impotence.
1t seemed impossible Of enforcement.
Slowly the mills OF the courts ground.
and only gradually did the majesty of
the law assert itself Many OF It's
statesmen-authors died before 1t be-
came living force and they and 9th
ers saw the evil grow which they had
hoped TO destroy Now It's efficacy Is
seen: now It's power Is heavy; now its
object Is near achievement, Now we
hear the call for It's repeal on the plea
that It intcrferes with business pros
perity, and we are advised In most
general terms how by some other stat
ute and in some other way the evil
we are just stamping out can be cured
II we only, abandon this work of twen-
ty years and try another experiment

so drastic or inhibitive In detail rs ci-

REFLECTIONS


In several of the dam disasters
recently, in which water impounded
in reservoirs has suddenly broken
Through the barriers to the de-
struction of life and property in the
valley below, the trouble has been
discovered to have been, not with
the dam, but with the foundation
upon which the dam rested. The
dams themselves, considered merely
as structures designed to resist lat
eral pressure, were apparently
built all right; but the rock foun-
dations upon which they rested was
disintegrated by the water that
seeped through that stratum. In
other words, the engineers. good at
calculating strains and stresses ac-
curately, were not equally good ge-
Iologists.
In human life there r many
strains brought to bear upon char
acter, some exceedingly difficult 70
be borne. We are surrounded by
our elders, who have been to the
school of experience, who thus be-
come more or less expert in that
which pertains to character, who
may tell us how to build character
SO that 1t will successfully resist the
strains that all too frequently are
put upon 1t In modern life. AS we
give heed to this instruction and
exercise ourselves to buttress our
character at its weak points, We pre-
pare ourselves to mingle with our
fellows at the least harm to self.
Where however, such Instruction
has been wanting, OF has not been
needed, we witness those ship
wrecks to character, and thus to
life itself, that are uncomfortably
common.
Sadder still is 1t to notice these
cases where the training has been
well given, and the building In ac-
cordance with the instruction, not
! w~stnssanIing which ner has come
disintegration OF character and dis
aster to life. In such cases. while
the character itself may have been
all that could have been desired, the
foundation upon which such charac-
ter rested has not been solid, to the
utter subversion finally of the char
acter itself. Sometimes men fall In
business from lack of capital, some
times from lack OF experience and
some times from lack OF energy. So
some make q miserable failure of
life because of lack OF character,
some through lack of stable founda-
ttion, and some because lacking that
energetic personality to make good
use of either.
There is Just one character known
in history, so great that before 1t all
men bowed, sufficiently great to be-
come the foundation character for
all mankind. The peerless character
of this one has been admitted by
friend aud foe alike. 1t is that Of
Jesus Of Nazareth, the prophet Of
gIGalilee.

A Gift with a Thought in It.

What other Christmas present

subscription to The Youths Com

gift which benefits not only the one
who receives it, but every member OF
the same household. ....>s. ..@..,.1
With many Christmas presents the
weeks end, but The Youths Com
panion is as new and sought after
the fifty-second week Of the year as
the first. It is elastic in: it's adapta-
bility, too; for it does not matter
whether the present is for a boy or a
girl, young married people, sedate
couples, grandparents there never
was one yet who did not set store by
The Youths Companion. You can
not make mistake if you give The
Companion-and it is only $1.75 a

price will be advanced to $500.

subscription will receive free The

A WORD TO CAMPERS.

There is no excuse for your setting
the woods afire, because you belong
to the outdoor class whose intelli-
gence averages high. You have only
to remember not to throw matches
away after lighting your pipe with
out killing the fame, and not to leave
camp fire until you have covered
the embers with dirt. Be sure you
leave no smoldering log ends. The
Forest Service notice SHOULD be post
ed in every camp. 1t says you must:
Not drop matches or burning tobacco
where litter is inflammable.
Not build larger camp fires than
needed
Not build fire in leaves or places
where they are likely to spread.

THE COST OF AN EXTRA SEsslNN.

In the news columns of this issue
of the Bemidji Pioneer, will be
found detailed and authentic figures
as to the cost of reconvening the
Minnesota legislature.
The approximate expense for the
kind of session from which the best
results would be obtained ought not
to cost more than $4,000.
On the one issue of reapportion-
ment it surely would be worth that
much.
The North alone, if assured a pro-
per readjustment of representation,
could easily afford to pay more than
this amount.
Surely the cost can not be offered
as legitimate excuse for not assmbl-
ing the legislature.

How often one hears the express

usually denotes age and is always as

The hair is generally the index of
age. If your hair is gray, you can't
blame your friends for referring to
you as looking DID, You can't retain
a youthful appearance if you allow
your hair to grow gray. Many per-
sons of middle age jeopardize their
future simply by allowing the gray
hair to become manifest. If your
hair has become faded or gray, try

There was one student, handsome,

to be utterly ignorant of the simplest
phases of the subject.
Professor w. put question after
question to him without receiving one
intelligent reply. Finally the student
said naively:
