- In basket ball game complete
with features, the Bemidji high
school boys easily defeated those
from Akeley, the score being 80 to z.
The game started off with rush
and before Akeley knew that they
were in contest, Bemidji had scored
three field goals. Never has high
school five of this city played basket
ball as it was played by the pupils Of
Coach Robinson last evening. They
were in the game and after the ball
from the first blow of the whistle,
and the fact that only one field basket
was thrown by the visitors during
the entire contest shows that Be-
midi played an exceptional defensive
game. -
Akeley secured each of it's points,
with the exception of the lonely field
goal, and one point which was award
ed them because of foul which was
committed by Bemidji guard as an
Akeley man was attempting to throw
basket, from successfully throwing
four out of ten fouls. $685.. j.:
For. .Akeley Foley at guard, played
a good game, although inclined to be
rather rough, he at one time COM
pletely lost his head, and was
cautioned by the referee that unless
he stopped his, tactics he would be
withdrawn from the contest. The
other men from the Hubbard county
town seemed completely lost, and at
no time during the game did they
play equal to the Bemidji quint
Peck, the heavy Bemidji centre
was the particular star of the even
ing. He was every where, and re-
peatedly threw field goals when it
seemed that he was perfectly guard
ed. In all he succeeded in making
16 out of Bemidji's 80 points.
The fact that Bailey, Bemidji's
clever midget forward could only
find the basket for one field goal,
was merely because he was constant
ly guarded by Foley, his large op-
ponent, who was after him all the
time, which made successful basket
throwing an 1mpossibility. However,
the little fellow was in every play
and his frequent feeding of the ball
to Poet, largely resulted in that play.
er's many field goals. Captain Rip
pie, for Bemidji, played game which
places him among the very best for
wards of Northern Minnesota, and his
free throws from fouls were constant
ly drawing applause from the 200
spectators.
Achenback and Ryan at the guard
positions for Bemidji filled them as
they have not been filled in Bemidji
since the days of the old Big Bemidj1
aggregation, and the fact that only
one basket was registered against
them proves them masters of their
positions.

Office created by the legislature is

After quoting the statutes on the
county attorneys duties, the opinion
continues:
sfFrom none of the foregoing can it
be claimed that there is any express
or. implied duty resting upon said OF.
ficers, either to go out personally
and investigate crimes or engage
others to do so.''
From this opinion it would seem
that our County Board used the

ical drill by 50 primary pupils of
Bemidji. The plan was that each
group of children, attired in man
ner BETTING to their number, should
come forward on the platform, sing
their song, and then retire to the
back OF the stage, where they waited
until all of the little singers were
there with them. At the end the en-
tire chorus sang in unison.
This plan worked perfectly. The
youngsters were frequently applaud
ed, and when the entire drill was
done, there were many plaudits for
Miss Ethel Murray, who trained the
children and conducted this part OF
the program. The program for this
drill follows:-ten little girls, Robin
Red Breats; six little girls, October
Party; three girls and sir boys,
Thanksgiving Song; five girls and
four boys, Holy Night; eight first
graders, The Eskimos; four boys, Lit
tie George Washington; three little
girls, Spring Song; Vera Cutter, Solo;
nine girls, Dandelions; six girls
Sweet Peas.
Especially worthy of note in this
drill was the solo sung by little Vera
Cutter. This little soloist is. eight
years old and in the second grade,
but her voice carried beautifully, and
she accomplished her part without
single breakdown. In "Holy Night
one of the little boys, Louis Brown,
accompanied his school-mates on the
violin while they sang. This, too,
called forth much admiration and ap-

University Man Talks.
The only speech of the afternoon
was given by Professor G. w. Thomp-
son of the Economics Department of
the Minnesota University. The gist
of Prof. Thompson's lecture is as fol-
lows: There are two worlds to
which we must adjust ourselves if we
are to be successful and happy, name
ly, the world OF nature and the world
of humanity. In order to adjust our
selves to the first of these we must,
first, learn Natures laws; secondly,
obey them. Primitive man knew the
force of nature only as powers of de-
struction, but the beginning of hui
man history was when somewhere
lin the dim dawn of human beginning
there came into mans mind a desire
to turn upon Natures world. and to
turn these to some human use" In
order to win out in the world of hn-
mainly we have two powers which
are the normal and mental faculties.
! We have too assist us in finding a so
cial balance institutions such as the
church, schools, clubs and other or
CARNATIONS. .The great underlying
idea of American democracy is a
place of moral equality" and to es-
tablish this more perfect adjustment
| is the object of civilization and edu-
cation.
