placed in operation on Lake Bemidji
for passenger and mail service in the
near future, according to r. e. Mil
ler. Mr.. Miller will purchase the
boat if it is satisfactory.
Mr.. Miller is endeavoring to get

offices in the cities are seeking men
to quiet the trouble with Mexico.
The officers in charge report many
young men who are willing to take
their place under the Stars and
Stripes but who are physically un-
fit to do SO. A large percentage of
these failures can be traced to the
things which Damaged Goods
teaches them to avoid. A lesson
brought home with graphic force.
Some are to blame themselves; others
are the victims like unto the victim
shown in Damaged Goods" The

POSTERS CALLING men
TO ENLIST IN CITIES

Large posters calling upon the
young men of the state to enlist for
the expected war with Mexico have
been posted out Of the Twin Cities as
far north as Wadena," said F. A.
Wilson, who with his wife arrived
in the city yesterday afternoon, COM
ing from Minneapolis by automobile.
GAS we were leaving the city,
said Mr.. Wilson, 1--WE saw the militia
boys boarding the street cars for st.
Paul where they marched in a. great
military display to arouse interest in
enlistments. Although the present
call is for the infantry, the feeling
among the officers in st. Paul is that
the Bemidji naval militia will see &C
tive service in the near future as a
result of the present trouble with
Mexico"
Mr.. Wilson says the state highway
between the cities and Bemidji to
be in first class condition.
