HORSES LIKE MACHINES

Animals are not like the machinery on the farm; they have a mind and sensibiIities that should be given some consideration by those who have to work with them. machine can be neglected and misused, and the greatest harm that can come of it is that the owner will have to buy a new machine but an animal that is treated in similar manner is made to suffer pain. Horses get tired and need good food, water and rest. Don't treat them like mere machines.

is cOincident with the fame of the two daring actresses, Bessie Eyton and Kathlyn Williams. Whenever the Selig studio wants to pull off some thing particularly startling, it sets the scenario man to work on an ami mal drama with plenty of jungle scenery, with helmets and naked na- tives. Then one or two of the fear less actors takes a fall cut of one or two of the perilous beasts. all for the sake of sensation and a treat for the eXcitement-Ioving public.
 The film. which is called Alone in the Jungle" has an interesting drama woven about the actions of the lion and his co-Worker.

FREAK SHOWERS
 FALL ON PHOENIX
A Rainfall in Which Clouds Did Not
 Figure

Phoenix witnessed several freak showers on Thursday night and yes terday morning and several estim- able gentlemen who have told about them have suffered in their reputa- tion for truth and veracity. For in stance.- when man comes into a section of the town where the streets are as dry as bone and tells the inhabitants that at his place. a half dozen blocks away, there was a soak ing rain he challenges unbelief.
 It has also been shown that clouds are not essential to rain. as many suppose. On Thursday night about midnight a citizen was on his way and was attracted by the continuous flashing of lightning in the north. the northeast and the northwest The flashes lighted up the whole face of the country yet there were no clouds visible in that part of the sky In fact the night was unusually clear and the stars shone with great bril- liancy against a dark sky
 The citizen observed that the only cloud in the sky was a thin and small one in the southeast about forty-five degrees above the horizon. And then it began to rain There and again the citizen looked around to see where it was coming from but he could find nothing to lay it upon except that unlikely looking little cloud.

Holiday Rush Is Coming Even
Though Days Are Warm
( X X x X x x x X x Xxx x X X
The story Of shop early has
been told until it is threadbare.
But as long as we have Christ
mas and as long as we have the
holiday rush, the story is worth
telling.
Christmas shopping has to be
done; if it isn't today, perhaps
it is tomorrow-but it has to be
done. @ 49, =
Why not do it now?
The stores Of Bemidji are ra-
diants with Christmas .sugges-
tions.
If you have not clearly made
up your minds as to what you
wish to purchase in gifts, a visit
to the stores will quickly solve
that question for you. &
If you have a fixed program
for the holiday season, the Be-
midi merchants who have sell
ected their stock with great
care, will show you the very
thing that Won want.
Heavy fogs, gray skies and
rain are not in harmony with
the old-time Christmas picture,
but the modern Santa Claus has
learned to use the aeroplane
when the ground is soft and
muddy.
And so it is with Christmas
shopper. He or she must learn
the new way of doing things
Shop now. Fl
Do it for the selfish reason
that you will enjoy the advant-
age Of selecting from a full
and complete stock Of merchan-
disc.
Do it for the humane reason
that if you shop early it will les
sen the rush of tomorrow.
The men and women who
smile at you from behind the
counters are entitled to that
small consideration.
If we all wait for snow and
winter weather to do our shop
ping, it means long hours and
overwork for others.
Shop early and after the
Christmas festivities are over
you will find cheerfulness and
comfort in the thought that by
so doing you contributed in a
mail way to the holiday hap
piness of someone else.
