EVERYBODY IS URGED
TO ATTEND PATRIOTIC
SOCIETY ORGANIZATION

Everybody-men, women and chill
dren-are urged to be present at the
patriotic meeting to be held in the
Commercial club rooms at 8 O'Clock
tonight when the society will be or
ganized.
There will be several matters of
importance come up for action. Para
mount is, perhaps, the fact that in
the Bemidji naval militia are seven
married men who will soon be called
to the colors. Their families are de-
pendent upon their weekly wage for
their living and with the call of the
bread winners of these 70 defend the
flag of their country it will take the
support from their loved ones.
Those thus left behind are not OBJ
jects of charity-not in the least.
On the other hand the people of Be-
midi owe them much for the sacri-
fees the militia members are making
and the faithful wives whose hus-
bands have gone forth to do what
ever is asked. l. will be for the So
ciety to look after these brave little
women and see that they they do
not suffer for the things of life which
they have been accustomed to, should
necessity arise.
It is the duty of the people of Be-
midi and a debt of honor that can
hardly be repaid in full.

LARGE CROWD ATTENDS
BAPTIST CHURCH MEETING

The Smith-Gilmore evangelistiC
meetings at the Baptist church are
attracting large crowds and the in
terest is intense.
Last evening Smith "punched'
home to the hearts of his hearers
some truths that will not soon be
forgotten. He was there with the
goods" and delivered them. "No one
cared for my soul," was the text and
before he had been at it very long
some of the professed Christians
present began to wonder If they
really did care for souls. That some
had a mighty poor way of showing
their interest was made very plain.
The fact that somebody had started
"a revival campaign is evidence
enough, said he, that somebody
cared for souls in this city"
This evening Mr.. Smiths message
will be continuation of discussion
of last evening on "Soul Winning"
Prof. Gilmore will sing "A Little
Bit of Love" as a solo and Smith and
Gilmore will render two of their
fine duets. The Christian people are
especially urged to be present.
Tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock
Evangelist Smith will give a Bible
talk on when God Answers Prayer
and Why He Does Not Answer" A
Smith Gilmore duet will be a feat
ure. The meeting will last one
hour.
A mass meeting for men is to be
held at the city hall next Sunday at
3 D. M, when Mr.. Smith will de-
liver his discourse, "Will Living a
Moral Life Save?" He will have
something to say regarding secret
societies. Every man in Bemidji is

Washington, April 4.-The house

tee today reported favorably on the
state of war resolution and will ask
the house tomorrow morning to take
action.
Urging that there be no faltering,
no division, no weakness, Senator
Hitchcock began the argument in
support of the war resolution. He
stated that he had been opposed to
war with Germany but was now pre-
pared to back the president.
The length of the speeches in de-
batting and discussing the passage Of
the resolution by the senate has
made it uncertain whether the reso-
luton will be passed by the Senate
today.
Senator Stone and Senator Vard-

event of war but declared it their
belief the war would be big blum
