Before William II. West attempted

vayman, a champion of honor and a
se,f-appointed officer of the law, he
spent some time in making Il close
study Of one of the most noted Of
Australian bandits, then behind The
bars at d Melbourne prison. The pris-
oner is said TO have been highly flat
tered by the visits of the screen actor.
Practically all. The tricks of the trade

ence in the entertaining and sensa-
tional serial feature, THE Stingaree."
Today West, Paul Hurst and we'll

sidered one of the best of the two reel

spared no expense in gaining a proper
atmosphere for the play. He took his

appears from statistics compiled here
that cigarettes are necessity to
smooth operations of the modern war

During the past month more than
six million cigarettes were smoked
by the $4,000 guardsmen and reg

consumption is slightly more than
four and one-half @'pills" a day for
each soldier. And the one-half
doesn't mean "buttS' either.
In addition to this the soldiers
burned tens of thousands of pack
ages of sack tobacco, cigars and mas
ticated about a ton of "chawin' to-

Due to the inconvenience of car
rying a pipe while in service uniform
soldiers who in civilian life were
devotees to the pipe are fast turn

THE CARNIVAL.
make it a hot one"
What?

make it a hot one"
What?
The St. Paul Outdoor Sports Car
nival which will be held in st. Paul,
January q to February 8, 1917.
Bemidji should organize a march,
ing club of at least 100 members and
attend the carnival. The advertising
that the city would receive would
more than repay for any efforts ex-
pended to organize the marching
club.
A meeting will be held at the Com
mercial club tonight to organize a
marching club and everyone, men and
women, should attend.
At the carnival held in st. Paul
last winter twenty-one thousand
people in costume were actually in
line in the big parade of the week
and romped, sang and danced mer-
rily through the streets while King
Winter supposedly had his strongest
grip upon the land. Fully two hun
dred thousand spectators crowded the
walks and streets along the line of
march of this parade.
A most comprehensive program OF
outdoor sports was staged on each
day and night of the carnival. Har-
ness races, baseball, tennis and push
ball on the ice; skijoring, ski jump
ing, motor sled races, curling, hockey,
skating races, dog races, pony races,
freak races and tobogganing, all had
their place on the program and hun
dreds OF teams and individuals COM
peted in the various events.
Moving pictures were taken of the
various marching clubs and it was
estimated that fully 100000 peo-
pie have seen the pictures.
The advertising value Of the car
nival and of marching club CALI
not be overestimated, nor can it be
told in exact figures. Every news
paper and magazine of note in the
country either published articles or
photographs of the carnival doings.
St. Paul intends to make this Sec
ond carnival bigger, brither and even
more entertaining than was the last
one. Marching clubs are being Or
ganized in Brainerd, Grand Rapids,
Crookston and other cities. Bemidji
should fall in line and organize club
which will be long remembered by
those who attend the carnival.
