THE .CURFEW LAW

There are fathers and mothers in
Bemidji whom no human being could
justly criticize in their handling of
their offspring. No care is too
great, no attention is too insignifi-
can't in their efforts to shield it from
the snares of life and yet have it de-
velopj into, real man or woman of
honor, integrity and. usefulness. The
children Of these parents are not seen
on the streets of Bemidji unaccom-
panied after eight o'clock at night.
But. again., there are others-quite
others. We see young boys running
wild and imbibing the vices of man
hood, smoking, swearing, swagger-
ing, using language too vile for
print. No, they are not assets,
either. They are just somebody's
kids, kids of somebody who doesn't
deserve kids. But they, too, are
somebody's flesh and blood and
should be given the care that will
make them useful men and women
The Bemidji police are making big
efforts to take care of "somebody's
kids" The police are enforcing the
curfew law to the best of their
ability. But the help of the parent
is necessary. Will the parents of Be-
midi do their part in helping the
police?

MAY HAVE REFRIGERATOR
MAIL SERVICE FOR HOUSEWIVES
(By United Press)

Washington, April 3.-Refriger-
ator mail service may soon be a real
ity, if the recommendations of Post
master Collins of Kansas City, Mo-.
receives the official Washington o.
K. A letter from him today asked
the department for permission to in
stall cold storage facilities in the
postoftice to protect the produce ship
ped. through the "farmto-table" ex-
change of the parcel post. Then in
summer, if the housewife is not at
home when the postman delivers the
dressed spring fry, or the butter just
from the farm, he will take it back
to the office and put it on ice.

THEGERMAN. PROBLEM,

If, for once, President Wilson's
words: are to, be taken at their face
value; this country is approaching
perilously near an open break with
Germany.
So many times, however, have the
dispatches "inspired" at the White
House indicated that the president
was bent on drastic action, and so
many times have these "inspirations"
proved to be mere buncome that ev-
eryone will, be skeptical until some
definite action is taken.
German. Indifference to Mr.. Will
son s. representations and the COM
plete fiasco, of the presidents So
called ,'"tdiplomatic triumph may,
however, have so angered the execu-
tive>,that, this time, he will alter his
course. The fact that Mr.. Wilson
positively refuses to consult even the
most experienced statesmen or to-
anxiety to the experienced statesmen
of both parties. He has refused even.
to take Senator Stone, Democratic
chairman, of the; foreign relations
committee, into, his confidence, his
sole adviser being his unofficial pleni
potentiary, Col. E. M. House..

MICHIGAN HOLDS FIRST
PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY
(By United PreSs)

Kansas City, April 3.-Missouri
tested her new presidential prefer
ence primary law today. Except in
cities and counties where important
local issues were at stake, interest in
the balloting was more or less per-
functory.
Senator William Alden Smith was
conceded victory in the contest for
the 80 Wolverine delegates to the
Chicago convention, although the
name of Henry Ford and William
Gerald Simpson, both of Detroit, ap-
peared on the Republican ballots as
seekers after the nomination. Neither
Ford nor Simpson made any cam
paign.
On the Democratic ticket, Presi-
dent Wilson was unopposed.

constructed by the manual training
classes of the sixth, seventh and
eighth grades of the Bemidji schools.
About 100 houses have been con-
structed. If each house is placed in
yard it will probably mean at least
two hundred more birds this sum-
mer. Last summer nearly every
house installed was occupied.
The buying of the houses will also
encourage the work of the school
children.

AITKIN COUNTY
In. 1902 a Scotch youth of
