History, Prophecy and Ivy Ode.

Clyde Walbridgc Horton gave the
class history, an interesting review of
the more important events in the life
of the class during the four years in
the high school, emitting nothing of
Importance and commenting on each
event briefly.
The class prophecy by Jacob Poor
Estey was for the most part in the form
of letters written by him while on an
automobile trip to New York with
Paul Chase and in which every member
of the class and his or her business or
occupation in 1920 was mentioned to
the delight of members of the class and
the amusement of others.
The ivy poem, written by Miss Mil
dred Jewell Knowlton, was recited bv
her and was sung by the class just be-
fore adjournment was taken to the
lawn, where the class ivy was planted
The poem, or ode, set to the music of
Drink to Me Only with Thine Eyes.
was as follows:
Today, we fondly gather here
To plant our Ivy green;
May it ever grow, from year to year,
With leaves of glossy sheen
And may we, like this tiny vine,
Through sun or storm and rain,
Grow ever stronger always strive
The highest point to gain.
Long will our hears recall each Joy
That IN friendship bound us here,
For time can nevermore destroy
The memories we revere
Ere honors bright, we IL honor choose
And thus our love profess,
For Alma Mater s teachings true,
And dear old B. H. S.

JEWETT CONTRACTS FOR 80 CARS

If automobile buying during the
late fall and early winter months is
any sign of prosperous times, with
reference to any section of the coun-
try, indications are that Bemidji will
have a right to assume an optimistic
view of the present financial condi-
tions.
The Northern Auto company re-
ceiyed and unloaded carload of
Fords Friday and sent them to the
buyers on the same day, one ship
ment going to Walker and one to
Cass Lake. ..
''This is the first time in the his
tory of this country that a carload
of automobiles has arrived at any
one point during the fall of the year,"
said Mr.. Jewett, proprietor of the
Northern Auto company. 1--WE have
already contracted for this territory
80 cars for winter and spring de-
livery. l know of no better signs of
the times than this rush for cars at
this season of the year. It is not
only the opinion of one man but Of
dozens who believe that the coming
year will be a banner one."
Mr.. Jewett stated that the follow
ing towns in this section have all
taken on Ford agencies, all of which
come under the Bemidji distributing
branch supervision: Cass Lake, Kel-
liner, Northome, Big Falls, Interna-
tional Falls, Baudette, Shevlin,
Clearbrook and Gonvick.
Other agencies are pending and in
dications are that contracts will be
signed and deals consummated with
in few weeks.
The carload which arrived Friday
is the first of the 1915 shipment.

WOUNDED; TAKES OWN LIFE.
Charles Magnuson Shoots Self to End
Severe Suffering.

Charles MagnusOn, aged thirty, a
this city, whose body was found in
a shack near Elsmore, Mimi, COM
mitted suicide after having received
a fatal wound by an accidental dis
charge of a rifle which he was clean
ing, according to Deputy Coroner
Grove of Virginia, who held an ex-
animation and inquest. The acci-
dent occurred some time after Mon
day night and his body was found by
the son of a section hand who had
gone to the shack to inform Magnu-
son that he would not be able to go
to Duluth with him Wednesday
night. The first wound received by
the accidental discharge of the gun
would have resulted in the mans
death, according to the opinion of the
coroner. Probably realizing this
fact, Magnuson placed another rifle
in position and fired. the fatal shot
through his head. The first bullet
had inflicted a flesh wound through
his left arm, severing the principal
artery. The coroner said that. the
man had probably only a few minutes
to live when he fired the other shot.
Both rifles were found on the floor
next to the cot on which he was
found lying. - ...

London, Nov. 28.-At few times
since the European war began, near.
ly four months ago, have reports
from the various fields of battle, scat,
tered from the North sea to the west,
ern fringe of Asia, been SO incom.
plete and confusing as is the case at
present. So far as can be learned
from official announcements there is
little change in the alignment of the
opposing forces in any quarter, not
withstanding the fact that operations
of the highest Importance are under
way.
The situation in Russian Poland, at
present the scene of the most impor-
tant conflict, has become one of the
most puzzling phases of the war. An
official Austrian statement is to the
effect that the fighting has assumed
the character of a continuous battle.
In Western Galicia, it is said, the Rus
SLAMS have been repulsed by the Aus
trians, and the latest official advices
from Berlin state that the outcome
has not yet been decided, although
partial German victories are reported.
The Berlin statement says there
we're no decisive engagements in Po-
land
No Word Officially.
Opposed to these statements are the
unofficial statements from Petrograd,
Paris and London that Germany has
been defeated decisively, and Earl
Kitchener's announcement in parlia-
ment that Germany has suffered the
greatest reversal of the war For sew
eral days these claims have been
made, with the utmost confidence, yet
the Russian war office withholds any
word of decisive developments.
In some particulars a similar situa-
tion prevails in the western area of
war London expected this week
would witness one of the most i'm
portant and dealy struggles of the war
as the result of a renewed German
effort to break through to the English
channel. Official statements, how
ever, indicate only sporadic fighting is
in progress, and as to the results
there is no recOnciling the reports
from Berlin and Paris. In any event,
the reported gains by either side here
have been small and of little strategic
value
