At about four O'clock last Friday
evening the home 81 Mr.. and Mrs.
Andrew Olson, at Tofte, was com
pletely destroyed by fire. It seems
that the fire started in the hallway
to the basement, supposedly from
mice working in matches that were
stored there; and the flames spread

contents could be saved. The Olson
home was one of the most attractive
in that thrifty settlement, and
though partly covered by insurance,
the loss is hard blow to the fam

products at a net profit to the club
members of $192,112.70. The actual

The farm gardens of Minnesota

obtained from 83,776 gardens. If the
rest of the farms of the state had

lions larger. For this reason, r. S.

built up for himself a following
which could hardly be larger if he
were a star himself. Youthful,
earnest, typically American, John
Bowers imposes on his admirers
no hardsh-ps in becoming accus-
toned to his screen efforts. He
stands for what everybody likes
and has always liked in leading
men.
His role in DAY Dreams" is a
happy combination Of all that he
does best. The many scenes in
which he participates with Madge
Kennedy are said to provide the
piquant star and her leading man
with opportunities for much laugh
ter, and some tears. Although
distinctly modern play, highly TO
mantle thread runs through it. Of
fering Madge Kennedy and John
Bowers excellent moments Of con-
trasting appeal. They are seen as
people of everyday life whose i'm
agination brings about a seeming
miracle and transports them to the
land of their dreams.
Day Dreams" abounds in mo-
ments of hilarious comedy of the
sort which Madge Kennedy makes
all her own and in which she is
given brilliant cooperation by John
Bowers.

The present heat wave has re-

ice at this season Of the year which
is greatly in excess Of the supply.
Shipments cannot reach the city in
sufficient quantitie- OF fast enough

The situation has been greatly
aggravated because Of the confisca-

and | 6 feet high, and a school and Of
flee building. They are also negotiat-
ing for at least two Curtiss planes.
This number will, of course, be in
creased from time to time as the at
tendance increases.
The planes under consideration
which will be used for training pur-
poses, are the Curtiss model, JN-4D-2
with a maximum speed of IS miles an
hour and minimum speed of As
miles an hour when FLYING. They are
able to climb 5000 feet in 10 min
utes and their maximum flying range
at economic speed, without stopping
for fuel, is $50 miles. Later on 1t is
the intention to order several Curtiss

flights. These have maximum
speed of ISL miles an hour. a mini

AT THE PASTIME.


Evelyn Nesbit in her first
William Fox photoplay, The Woman
Who Gave" appears at the Pastime
fer the last time today.
In THE Woman who Gave this
beautiful and accomplished william
Fox star plays the part of an artists
model in the studios of Paris, where
a crippled American artist is painting
a masterpiece. A Bulgarian prince
sees this picture before it is finished
and falls in love with the model
Through a misunderstanding he
forces here to marry him and takes
her away before the picture is fin
ished. The artist grieves and loses his
sight and returns to America with his
brother
A son is born, but the prince who
has married his wife for her beauty
hates the boy because it deprives him
of his enjoyment of his wife's charms
At last she rebels and flees to the
artist for protection. How the artist,
blind and crippled as he is. gives his
life to secure her happiness and that
of her son is wildly portrayed in
this absorbing photoplay.
The management is also repeating
the comedy "Rebuiiding Broken
Lines"
