At THE. Grand

Mary Pickford in Film Version Of
1.-THE Dawn of Tomorrow" One of
the Greatest Screen Successes Ever
Presented!
At'The Grand SATURDAY Matinee and
Night.
"'The Dawn of a Tomorrow" Fran
ces Hodgson Burnett's great drama
of faith, love and sacrifice, needs no
introduction to the American public,
for it was in this country that the
great play made its biggest success.
To say that Mary Pickford requires
no introduction to the American pub
lie, either, is So supert1uous that it
does not deserve the type necessitated
to print the statement. The combi-
nation of Mary Pickford and "The
Dawn of a Tomorrow" however, is
one to conjure with, and this, amazing
coalition Of stellar talent and dra-
matte power Of the Famous Players.
Film Company presents its latest
feature release on the Paramount Pro
at the Grand Saturday Matinee
and Night.
Three eminent physicians are intro
duced in consultation e the affec-
tions of Sir Oliver Holt, one of Lon
don's money powers. He %overhears
their diagnosis, which is that he is
rapidly passing into a state Of decay
from which there is no recovery.
Rather than wait for the crumbling
process, Sir Oliver determines to hide
his identity in the slurns and kill him
self. It is his chance encounter with
Glad, the Wonderful character por-
plaNed by Mary Pickford, that gives
htm renewed hope and a fresh incen'
tive. Her audacity and her faith in
spire him; he takes an interest in the
poor wrctches around him, joins in the
crowd that chases a thief through an
alley, and for a night lives the strange
weird existence Of London %depravity.
b. Sir Oliver undertakes no reforms; he
has his own depression to reform, ant
from Glad learns a lesson of hope ant
cheerfulness Of which the three wise
physicians knew nothing. BY a series
of condolences, it developes that Sill
divers nephew is the only man that
can furnish an alibi that will clear
Glad's lover, Dandy, from a charge of
murder. Sir Oliver readily lends him:
self to assisting Glad in her task Of
wrestling this testimony from the
nephew, and the final scenes find the
old mar reiuvenated, and Glad eager
to return to the ma she has saved. !.
"The Dawn of. Tomorrow" differs

TO LARCENY

The latter part of the week two
men who. had been working on the JOS.
Perkins farm came to town with their
checks amounting to about $40 apiece
and after cashing them went to a
barber shop for a bath and on dress
ing and %donpninIg new nueecckties the
younger fellow, C. H. Price, by name,
suggested to the other fellow by the
name Of Smith and about II years old,
that it would be a good scheme to pin
their bills in their neckties, as in Ease
of being held up no one would find
their money. Smith pinned Prices
bills into his tie, and then Price was
supposed to pin two ten dollar bills in
to Smiths tie, but evidently instead
simply pinned a piece of white paper
i'm. He then excused himself to go
for some laundry and asked Smith to
wait until he got back. Smith waited
for, couple Of hours and then left and
walked about the city until near even
ing when he wanted to use some mon

ming what he supposed was the two

Sheriff and States Attorney were at
once notified and a warrant was issued
and Sheriff Olson got busy and locat-
ed his mar in Fargo where he was
gathered in by the police of that city
and Mr.. Olson went there and brought
his man back Saturday. Monday he
was tken before Judge Juergens,
where he was allowed to plead guilty
to petty larceny, and vas given ten
days in the county Jail, and is now
a boarder with Sheriff Olson. Smith
got his twenty back and has gone on

If the frost will only hold off for a couple of weeks there is al
possibility that Ramsey county farmers will be able to have corn
natured sufficiently to haveseed of.the coming year, and if xsch
should be sthesGase they should act promptly. Corn is Fit K, pick
folssee9 just@ xoonsas it is glazed, and as soonras tits picked It
should be put in a dry place and kept there. Ramsey county and
most parts of North Dakota will be short Of seed corn next year
and the man who has a good sample to sell will get a good price
for it.
1T is estimated that it takes s., 25O, 900 each year to keep the
automobiles of North Dakota in tires. There is no question but
what 20 per cent Of the damage done to automobile tires is done
by stones in the road. If every township would see to it that
every stone is removed from the roads they would do a noble act
and would save thousands of dollars each year to automobile own
es. A sharp stone in the road may not seem to amount to much
but hit it with a tire and the damage is done, although it may not
be apparent for some time. 1t may not show at all on the outside
of the tire, but it has damaged and weakened the fabric so that
eventually you will have a blow out.
The merchant who is not advertising is counting bankruptcy,
although he may not see until it is too late. It is a we'll estab-
)ished fact that no merchant succeeds to any extent unless he is
he has for sale and also explains the quality of his goods and the
prices.
Last week an ad appeared in the World for a cook car for sale,
and in less than a week the party carrying the ad could have sold
eight cook cars. This only goes to show that advertising in the
World is read.
1t is said that North Dakota will have more politics to the square
inch next year than ever before. Already we can hear rumbings
and the various candidates are beginning to repair their political

GOVERNORS PROCLAMATION,

As true Americans we are justly proud Of the development,
prosperity and greatness Of our country. Never before in the up
time as there has been in the United States of America during the
past one hundred and thirty-nine years. To-day we stand in the
forefront of the nations of the world: Our position is not due to
al, steady and rapid growth, brought about by the thrift, inteli-
gence and industry Of our people.
In America all are labofers: No matter what our Occupation,
We are all working to secure a higher and greater efficiency in
whatever lines we undertake. We have become a nation of spec
ialsts-our scientists, inventors, mechanics, artisans, chemists
skilled workmen and laborers in every one of our n%umberless al
lied industries outrank all others in point Of efficiency; and it is to
among civilized peoples. independence has perhaps had much 70
do with our success, but without willing, conscientious labor
we never could have achieved that independence which is 50 dear
to every true American. The aristocracy of America consists of
the laborers, and every American is a true aristocrat.
The very foundations OF our country are laid upon the rocks OF
labor and industry. 1t is but fitting that we have a day set apart
lofty spirit the success of a seasons efforts and early autumn, the
most beautiful season of the year, has been decided upon through
out the country as the most appropriate time for the holding OF
this labor festival.
Now, therefore, ], L. B. Hanna, governor, in conformity with
statute and in harmony with the spirit of an Industrious, willing
and l~aw-abiding people, do hereby proclaim and set apart Monday,
September 9Th, as Labor Day in the State of North Dakota for the
year 1915.
Done at the Capitol at Bismarck, this seventeenth day Of Aug
ust, A. D.1915.. .. 't*t' L. B. HANNA
by the Governor: Governor.
THOMAS HALL, Secretary of State.
THERE'S no doubt but what there is something radically wrong
with the grain market, and as usual the miNers and spectators
are bound to get this crop at the lowest possible price. There is
no reason why wheat should be worth 81. so today and only a dol
at present. 1t seems as though just the moment our crop, is in
sight the Spectators begin to pound the price down. What the
who can solve the problem Of seeing the farmers. getting what
their crop is worth would be- real benefactors. One remedy is to
hold your grain in the bins until the mllers and exporters are
ready to pay the price for it. But many farmers cannot do this.
They owe obligations which must be paid, and therefore they are
compelled to sell their crop. However, every farmer who can do

to miss them turned to one side and
apparently going too far turned quickly
to the other with the result that the
car ran over a small bank and over
turned.
The Ottumwa church man was
thrown beneath the automobile and
pinned there for half an hour until
help could be secured to remove the
machine from over him. He was bad
ly bruised and shaken up although no
bones are thought to have been brok-
en-. He, however. received several
burns from the gasoline 40 1t trickled
down on him and these are causing
him some distress today.

vENrIoN IN EUROPE CAUSES
A SLUMP.

Chicago, May 1o-Unusual nervous
ness and rapid changes in price today
characterized the wheat market.
Chances Of government and trade COM
plications owing to the sinking OF the
Lusitania continued to overshadow all
other influences, with the tendency
mostly toward q lowering Of values, de-
spite sharp rallying power evident IN
the pit. Trading was decidedly active.
After opening tx lower to sc higher,
prices advanced well above Saturday
nights level, but later suffered ma
terial general break.
False rumors that President Wilson
had been assassinated caused q pro-
nounced temporary drop in quotations.
The close was unsettled, y to l Nc net

Corn moved with wheat Fluctuations
were comparatively narrow. After
opening hc off to A@xc up. a moder-
ate advance was scored, and then came
a sag.
The close was fairly steady at v to

Oats had no independent action, but
trade was Of larger volume than has
been the rule.
Provisions showed frmness. The
chief sustaining influence was the
strength Of the hog market.
