The Golfers RenlY.

Golfers Weekly editorially makes
the following comment concerning
the many objections brought forth
by it's prize story, "The Hospital
Ticket" in which Bemidji played so
prominent a part:
One Of the best magazine stories
published in 1914 was James w. Fitz-
patrick's prize story in Golfers call
ed 'The Hospital Ticket" If we
weren't so busy praising German &C
Invites, we should like to print On
this page some of the letters we have
had about this story, including the
indignant one asserting that the man

the good old, rough times, has for it's
scene a town in Minnesota-Bemidj
and now listen to the Bemidji "PiO-
neer:
the fve-hundred-dol prize
story, 1.-THE Hospital Ticket"
dealt Bemidji a severe blow and
in a most unjust manner, and it's
editor should not delay in in
forming subscribers, and they
total about one million, Of the
true conditions which now sur
round this city.
Come, brother, do not be like the
rest of them. It seems to be impos-
sible for anyone to write good story
and give it local place and habita-
ton without stepping on tender
toes. Why be offended because Mr..
Fitzpatrick tells about "Tickle-the-
WoodBox' and his fish-berry knock
out drops? It is good story, isn't
it? Several Of those lone million"
subscribers never heard of Bemidji
at all till Mr.. Fitzpatrick came
through with his story, so have
heart! However, according to the
'Pioneer,' the Bemidji of today has
''paved streets, beautiful lakes, Won
derful scenic surroundings and sub
stantial homes and business blocks"
and has been selected "as the proper
place for Sixth Normal School," Be-
mld)l today is dry. So much the bet
ter for the editor of the "PiOneer'
and the editor of the "Sentinep'-
but will Bemidji ever be the scene
of another story half so exhilarating
as 1.-THE Hospital Ticket"

Among the many heroes of the war
who have been struck down before
they had a chance to enjoy the re-
ward of their bravery, was Sergeant
Heaney, of the Kings Own Royal
Lancaster Regiment, who was killed!
in action two days after being pro-
noted lieutenant and recommended
for the Distinguished Conduct Medal,
for an exploit which saved an entire
division.
The Royal Lancasters have been
continually on the firing line since

particular acts of courage. Heaney's
chance came one day when the situa-,
tion as regards food supplies for his
division was becoming desperate. For
ten whole days the roads from the
trenches to the supply depot had
been rendered impossible by the hail
of shells rained upon by the
enemy, and no fresh provisions could
be got to the troops on the firing
line
Heaney went to his major and Of
fered to take the wagons through the
rain and shells, and bring back food.
He did not say he would try. He
said he would go and fetch the provi-
sions. The major said impossible"
and when he persisted, "sheer mad
ness" Nevertheless, the sergeant
was allowed to take a few comrades
and with the wagons he set off down

Sherman'S Plan.

Fred D. Sherman, immigration
commissioner, has decided that there
are three things needed to keep Min
nesota in the front rank as a public
ity bureau to entice immigrants to
the state.
He will make three recommends
tions to the legislature, as follows:
That 100000 be appropriated
each year for the department in
stead of $4,000.
That county assessors take
farm census.
That real estate dealers be Ii
censed.
The increased appropriation is
needed, Mr.. Sherman said, so that the
state can do more advertising and
give more exhibitions at county fairs
throughout the country The depart
ment sends out thousands of pamph-
lets telling prospective settlers of
Minnesota's greatness and an adver-
Using car is sent through the country
for the same purpose. To increase
the range of these advertising meth
DDS and make them more valuable to
the state, more money is needed, he
said.
In suggesting the farm emu, Mr..
Sherman said the state should have
a record of all farm values, yields to
the acre and acreages of various
crops. If the assessors get this in
formation in the spring it could be
tabulated before fall and made ready
for use. Kansas has such law as is
suggested by Mr. Sherman, and it
should be successful here.

humiliation.

DARKEN
YOUR CRAY HAIR
Look years youngeri Use Grand
mothers recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur and nobody will know.

The use Of Sage and Sulphur for re
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother's time.
She used il TO keep her hair beautifully
dark, glossy and abundant. Whenever
her hair fell out or took on that dull,
faded or streaked appearance, this sim
pie mixture was applied with wonderful
effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for 50-cent bottle of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound"
you will get this famous old recipe
which can be depended upon to restore
natural color and beauty to the hair and
is splendid for dandruff, dry, feverish,
itchy scalp and falling hair.
A well-known downtown druggist says
it darkens the hair so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has been
applied. You simply dampen sponge
or soft brush with il and draw this
through your hair. taking one strand at
a time, BY morning the gray hair dis
appears, and after another application or

aomplished it by extending their city
boundary line two miles forther
north.
In order to make Shaffer county
and keep away from the ten mile lin
it, it was necessary for the Gushing
people to form a stair way boundary
line on the south. In no other way
could they keep ten miles away from
Chandler. No trouble was encounter
cd in keeping the required distance
from saltwater on the west and Sa-
bulpa on the east the county seats
respectively of Payne and Creek
counties.
The stair step border was nicely
prepared and surveyed when Chand-
Ter people upset the plans. The city
council of Chandler simply extended
their north boundary two miles north
ward. This took away from the pro-
posed Shaffer county two of the ten
mile limit and 1t also put a crimp in
the formation of new county at
this time. 1t Is understood that
Chandler has .subdivided a strip two
miles long, sort of lane in fac;, and
had also erected electric light poles
that far out and given the people of
that section the benefit of electric

2emeta. OKLA, July 19.-The dreams
lof the Shaffer county enthusiasts
ave again been shattered and as
esult there is no likelihood Of coun
y cutting this year Two years age
the people OF Gushing, assisted BY
many Of those living within the pro
posed county, made a campaign tc
have Shaffer county cheated, includ
ling within its confines practically all
OF the Cunshing oil field. After a sew
eral weeks campaign, however, the
proposition lost by narrow margin
ut the polls. A Shaffer county ticket
was elected bu the creation OF the
county failed, and the men who were
elected to office found themselves
without county in which to serve.
The proposition, two years ago,
would have included portions OF
Payne, Lincoln, Creek and Pawnse
counties.
The Shaffer county fight was TAX
en- into the legislature, during its SEES
sion the past winter, and attempts
we're made to pass amendments that
would prohibit the creation of new
counties. This failed and amend
mnnts were introduced that forbade
the location OF 4 county boundary
within fifteen miles of an establish
ed county seat, and when this was
defeated, in twelve miles of such
town. All attempts, however. were
lost, and the law remains which per-
mits new counties but the boundary
may not be within ten miles Of
county seat
Shaffer county enthusiasts again
got busy, this spring, and began
shaping up for another vigorous cam
paign. They believed without a doubt
that fhey could win this time. They
out their proposed county
md then sent delegates from Cush-
ing to visit Drumright, oilton and
other towns within the proposed ney
soliciting help and votes, to
spring the proposition and ask for an
election when the citizens of Chand-
Ter, the county seat OF Lincoln coun-
ty, spoiled all the plans.
The proposed Shaffer county, this
time, would include portions of Payne
Lincoln and Creek counties. Be
cause of the big oil field, there would
thus be created the wealthiest couu-
ty in the state The present law pro-
vldes, however, that no new county
boundary line may be located within
ten miles OF an established county
seat, and it was on this one propo-
