DID NOT RECOGNIZE
HIS HABERDASHER

Many and various are the amusing
stories attributed to Abraham Lin
coin, and like all good story-tellers
lie became the butt of many, funny
yarns himself. It is told of him that
at one of his early public receptions
Il man came up and shook his hand.
The man proved to be his shirt
maker, but Lincoln did not recognize
him, and told him so: : ''
"Oh," said the man, II made your
Shirts se~.-.-.- ~..' .
In the noise and confusion, Lincoln
did not exactly. understand him, but
with his usual desire to make every
body feel welcome he turned to his
secretary, who stood near, and said:
"Here, Mr.. Hay, 1 want you to meet
Mayor Shurtz."
It was some time before Mr.. Lin
coin could be made to- understand
that the man did not claim to be
Mayor Shurtz, but that he had said,
II made your Shirts" which sounds
| very much the same.
1t was Lincoln who said that the
most important book in the library
is the Bible. Lincoln was a great
Istudent, and much of his learning
came from what we term "every day"
books. The Bible is one of them,
and now that The Pioneer offers
such an opportunity, everybody in
Bemidji should get the New Illus
trated Bible. See the display an
nouncements from day to day and
you will at once recognize the neces-
sity for coming into possession of one
of these beautiful volumes. Then
turn to the certificate on another

nifcent work on practically your OWL

Words Wrongly Used.

w. G.. Warren of the Hinckley En-
terprise calls attention to the I'M
warranted distinction between "far-
mer" and business man. He quotes
a farmer and comments as follows:
Said a farmer to us the other day,
"if you fellows in town wouldn't
make a distinction between the bust
ness man and the farmer when you
speak of them, you could bring them
nearer together. The farmer knows
he is just as much a business man
when he manages his farm success
fully as is the man who manages a
store, and he has just as much in
vested, and he resents the distinc-
tiOn.''
There is absolutely no doubt but
what the farmer needs to be just os
much of business man to make his
farm pay as the merchant needs to
be business man to make his store
pay and there is no doubt what there
managing stores who are not business
men.
The storekeeper or the farmer or
the man in any other line of business
who manages his business in a bust
nesslike way is a business man, and a
man in either or any other occupa-
ton who doe not manage his business
in business-like way, is not bust
ness man. And, yet, the term "busi-
ness man" has come to mean the
business man of the village or. city
and not the business man on the
farm.
The speaking of man working on
farm as a business man on farm
may or may not be descriptive, and
to speak of the fellow doing business
in the village as business man may
or may not be calling him the right
name; he may be only a storekeeper,
and to call man a farmer because
he lives on farm may or may not
be correct. He may live on farm
and in the real sense of the word be
neither a farmer or business man.
But, you can't get away from the
distinction-the man who lives on a
farm, whether he knows how to farm
or not, and the man who has a store,
hank Or some other hnSiness in
town will be called business man
whether he knows anything about
the business or not. Custom has
made this use of the words.

All through the night, for operators
quit work at various times, the girls
must leave the phone exchange and
make a veritable dash for safety, sub
ject to the insults of men who come
to the district with a purpose.
Just across the street is a three
story fiat building with a reputation
that carries tales of unknown hor-
rors. In front of this building, to see
that women do not bring men into it,
are stationed one, and often two, pO-
icemen.
A half dozen other policemen pa
troll the one block in a vain effort to
keep the women from soliciting as
they pass.
Across the way from the exchange,
near enough that the music can be
heard, is a saloon with a "cafe" en-
trance. Along notorious 22d st., Wa
bash av. and on 23d st. is a series of
saloons and disOrdeTly places that
form a network about this Calumet

work.

Barney Grogan and earlier in the sea-
son a member of the Minneapolis ball
team, is accused Of keeping Gertrude
Mccarthy on the street.
The Mccarthy girl is now being
held at the detention home. She IS
remarkably pretty and if she has
been bad she is of the innocent sort. 4
That keeps her from realizing the Sc
riOsness of the steps she has taken.
According to the information re-
ceived by Robert Hogan, assistant
state attorney, PinkertOn changed
his name and married after skipping
Chicago, following his release on
bond in the Mccarthy case.
After leaving the Minneapolis ball
team Pinkerton Travelled with the
Federal Bloomer Girls and married
their star second baseman, according
to Hogan.
The cases of seven West Side ho-
teIkeepers and two saIoonkeepers,
arrested following the Mccarthy
girls story, have been postponed till
July IA in order to await Pinkerton's
return.

Y. N. C. A. NOTES.

The suppers of the high school boys
club, given every Tuesday evening,
have been discontinued because of the
small attendance. The discussion
groups are still going however, and
will keep on through the rest of the
season. The discussions are mighty
interesting and the report is that the
attendance is better now than it ever
has been. Pres. Chester Hartlett of
the boys club says that a board meet
ing will be held next week and that
some good live work will be proposed.
The Employed boys basket ball
tournament has started. The Flash
lights played the Saunders, the
Saunders winning by score of 26 to
s. The Flashlights lined up as fol-
lows: Harold Mccormick, c, Ed.
Keuhl, r. f., Irv. Hoene, |. f., Earnest
Martin r. g. and Richard Relitz |. G.
The Saunders lined up as follows in
the same order as the Flashlights; O.
johnson, NJ. Hanson, Elmer e. John
son and R. Boles. The game was
very interesting, especially as it
opened the schedule of the Employed
Boys club.
A corner in one of the rooms on the
second floor has been fixed to be used
for telegraph instruction. Elvin
Hartlett is the instructor. Two COM
plete telegraph sets of sender and re-
ceiver are now in use and two more
have been ordered. Mr.. Hartlett is
already instructing almost twenty
boys in the rudiments of telegraphy,
and he expects to be able to teach
twenty-five as soon as the sets arrive.
Glasses are held after school on Mon
day and Tuesday and after supper on
Tuesday and Thursday evenings.
The venture is quite success and all
students interested 'head over heels.n
