SCHOOL CHILDREN's EYES,

The childs eyesight does not
develop until several years af-
ter the usual school age, there
fore every safeguard should be
taken to avoid eye strain during
the school period.
Young children who have a
tendency to hold their books too
close to their eyes, or if they
squint OF frown when reading,
should have their eyes examined
before the delicate eye muscles
are impaired by the heavy tax
placed upon them in reading

glasses will overcome defects of
sight in Children that, if allowed
to go on can never be entirely
overcome. If taken in time
the properly fitted glasses will
so strengthen the weak eye mus

GAS COMPANY ADDS
LARGE LIST OF PATRONS

A representative of the Pioneer
was effervescently expiated upon the
many advantages of Bemidji, one day
not long ago, to a man who is famil.
lar with the city, as he is a frequent
visitor on business, and among the
things mentioned was the gas system
"Gas?" echoed the visitor, when
that advantage was mentioned.
"Surely," was the reply, and then
followed 4 brief outline Of the Be-
midi Gas Company in it's system
whereas the visitor was surprised.
From the outset the gas company
has grown steadily, its pipe lines Gov
ering the principal streets Of the
city and those familiar with the use
of gas for household cooking were
glad of the opportunity.
New patrons Of the company have
been constantly added and this sea-
son 13O homes have added gas stoves
to the list, a marked saving Of build
ing a fire mornings, saving in fuel,
dirt and ashes, ready with the turn
of a valve and the application OF a
match to a burner for cooking or bak-
ing. And the use of gas is increasing
in Bemidji.

LONG SESSION IS
BEING PREDICTED
FOR SPECIAL CALL
Expected Legislature Will Be
Continued Longer Than
Eight Days.

St. Paul, Mimi. Aug. 14.-Gov-
ernor Burnquist's plan that the
standing committee of the 1919 legis-
lature prepare bills. conduct hearings
and virtually dispose of all prelimin-
aries that the extra session may con.
tinue only eight days, state offictale

say will require confirmation by the
legisla ture in the special session be.
fore 1t will have any effect Other
wise. the preliminary work as sug-
gested by the governor in his special
session call may be ignored. Mem
bers of the legislature, 1t is predicted,
will insist on having a. voice in tbs
proceedings, in addition to voting on
bills recommended by the old COM
mittee.
Julius A. Schmahl, secretary of
state, and a former chief clerk of
the house and experienced In legis-
lative rules; says that new speaker
may be elected and both houses COM
pletely ,reorganized for the special
session In the event the lawmakers so
choose Then follows the conclusion
that the committee hearings and
other preliminary activities suggested
by the governor must be entirely In
formal until sanctioned by the mem
bers.
Preetctions are being made that
the proposed legislation for the bene-
fit of returning soldiers and other
measures suggested by the governor
will result in a long session and the
general opinion is that thirty days
is a conservative guess.

EVERYBODY PLAYING
THE GAME ON WALL
STREET: STOCKS HIGH
Persons on Weekly Salaries
Have Invested Wages
and Gotten Rich.
(By United Press. }

New York, Aug. 14.-High prices
of foods and products Of factories are
reflected nowhere better than in the
New York stock market, where trans.
actions have been SO heavy in recent
weeks that extra holidays,in addition
to the Saturday halliday have been
necessary to allow clerks to keep UP
with the business.
Starting last March trading has
been so active that rarely day has
passed when shares sold did not reach
the million mark, and on occasions
the number has gone above 2,000,-
900. And rarely has the market been
"over-sold," condition reached
when shorts sell so heavily that 1t
is difficult for them to cover by pur-
chases
Naturally, with such demand for
issues of all character, it follows as
a matter of course that prices must
mount And mount, they have.
The day before the world was
plunged into 'war.-July 80, 1914

more than 500 a share, could be
obtained for bare fraction Of that
figure. Common stock Of the Inter-
national Mercantile Marine, for in
stance, could be picked up in Wall
street before the start Of hostilities
at a few dollars a share. 1t has
gone above 60 since that day.
One great factor in the continued
and steady advance Of all classes
since that time has been the phe-
nomenal riches ground out In the fac
tories that produced war munitions.
Millionaires were made overnight:
The public heard of these things and
wanted to get in. They outnumbered
the, professional traders. And then
along came the oil stocks, with the
development of the great Ranger field
in Texas. OIL stocks began to soar
Persons who never dreamed they
would have better than weekly sal
ary have invested their savings IN
some security and have come OUT
rich. The effect was dramatic. Ihe
street has been full of outside traders.
OF course, the rich ones are great
ly outnumbered by that saddenea
horde which has lost It's all IN wall
street speculation, but the glamor OF
the dollar always calls more:
And, while outside speculation ID
easing up and things gradually more
normal. there still is an influence
that bids fair to keep prices very
high merely by the process OF supply
and demand for shares.
