WAR RECORDS TO BE ASSEM-
BLEED IN COUNTY AND STATE
COLLECTIONS.

In it's work of collecting the rec
ords of Minnesota's participation in
the war, the Minnesota War Records
Commission has in view the building
up of both county and state war col
lections. The work is authorized
and financed by the Public Safety
Commission. The county war col
lections are to be housed perma-
nently in libraries, courthouses, or
in other suitable repositories in the
several counties, and as a rule at the
county seats. The state war collec-
ton is being assembled at the His
torical Building in st. Paul under
the permanent care of the State His
torical Society.
According to this plan St. Louis
County for example, will ultimately
possess in the county war collection
assembled by the County War Rec
ords Committee, now at work Cor
soon to be organized) here, complete
records of the war services per-
formed both at home and abroad by
the various individuals, organiza-
tions, and communities of this coun-
ty. Such a collection will include
the record of every st. Louis
County man in the federal or state
militay service, complete files of all
newspapers published in the county
during the war, photographs of the
county's soldiers and sailors, views
of local subjects and events of
war time interest, publicity matter
and perhaps the official records, cor
respondence files and papers of the
local branches in the county of the
various war organizations, soldiers
letters, posters and printed miscel-
lany, decorations. trophies, and
relics.
The state war collection in st.
Paul, on the other hand, will for the
most part reflect thu war services Of
the state as a whole. In it will be
included a complete set of the in
dividual records of Minnesota men
in the service, which are now being
compiled in duplicate by the County
War Records Committees; all avail
able records relating to the statewide
management and achievements OF
the innumerable wartime move.
ments and drives, which the Com.
mission is gathering directly from
the various state headquarters in
st. Paul and Minneapolis; and q
representative collection of materia
relating to local war activities il
communities throughout the state
An important part of the last named
class of records has already been as
sembled by the State Historical So
ciety in the course of its normal &C
tivities in the form of files Of ovel
half the newspapers published il
Minnesota during the period Of the
war. In order that other types Of
local war history material may alst
be represented in the state .warAcol
lection, the Commission is urging it,
county committees 80 far as possible
to secure or make duplicates Of rec
ords acquired for the county collec
lions, and then to send in this dupl
cate local material as part of thu
counties contributions to the centra
war collection.

ton of returning soldiers are taking
definite form in the case of several
local organizations, and others are
expected to take like measures in the
near future as soon as the problem
becomes urgent.
So far the city, the local chamber
of commerce and the Spokane Master
Builders association have taken con-
crete steps, and the local employment
bureau of the federal immigration
service is lending it's cooperation.
improvements, mainly in the form
of road construction, to total of
$500 has been announced by the city
park board, which has stated that re-
turned soldiers will be given prefer
ence in hiring workmen. Expenditures
have been kept to a minimum for
more than a year, only necessary
maintenance work having been order
ed by the park board. Accumulated
funds now will be used to furnish en-
ployment to former wearers of at ma
TONS uniform.
At a recent meeting of the master
builders association here, the mem
bers voted to give work first to re-
turning soldiers, and established an
employment bureau for the purpose in

ficient jobs are not forthcoming it

to obtain outside employment.

THE PEARL DIVER
OF PAUM0TU ISLAND
LIVES CARE-FREE LIFE, SPEND
HIS MONEY AS FAST AS HE
MAKES 1T

PAPEETE, Island of Tahiti-Cor-
respondence of the Associated Press.)
THE Paumotu Islands-sometime S
called "gold mine" of the eastern Pa
cific-present a wierd and pictur-
esque scene during the season for
pearl fishing. From August on, come
the natives from the surrounding is
lands to dive for pearls in the calm
waters of the lagoon thrown open for
the purpose. Within the narrow strip
of sand which surrounds the fishing
ground are huddled three thousand
or more, in mushroom city, shelter
ed beneath corrugated iron or thatch-
ed roof huts. 1t is a motley company.
There is the Paumotu diver,
bronzed god-who, with his an
cestors, have been for ages, masters
of the deep and conquerors of the
shark in his own native element. He
is the center of solicitude for the
buyer and trader. He is the indis-
pensible object of the moving picture
man who has hastily built his theatre
of corrugated iron where he dispenses
amusement at metropolitan prices. 1t
is the diver who will spend his earn
ings riding in the wheezy motor car
which the owner operates along a
half mile of hard beach. 1t is his
earnings which attract host of
others.
In his habits of spending his earn
ings the Paumotu diver is much like
the American prospector and miner
of the days of gold strikes and boom
mining camps In the days of his
prosperity nothing is too good for
him. He buys the choicest of foods
and timed goods. He is proud of the
appearance of his women folk and
lavishes on them silks, satins, laces,
Chinese shawls, high heeled shoes,
picture hats and corsets, the last
recent discovery. All of these things
the trader, thoughtfully has provided.
Sunday is an Easter parade and a
performance at the picture theatre
like an evening at the opera. In no
golden horseshoe" in the world are
more observant or critical eyes, and
woe betide the Paumotu belle who
fancies she can attend two of these
functions clad in the same costume
without being subject to scornful
comment.
A good diver during the season will
bring up several tons of shells which
recompense him well. The diver takes
no thought for the morrow. He and |
his wife bask in affluence and en-
joyment He spends as fast as he
earns. When December comes and |
the fishing season is over they re-
turn to their little atoll and the sim
pie life with nothing remaining for
his months of toll but some soiled
finery, the memory of a good time
and the anticipation of repetition
of their pleasure the next year.

ply. Since Nevada went dry on De-
cember 16 bootlegging prices have
been mounting rapidly.

HORRIBLE SIGHT
ADMIRAL BEATTY THUS DE-
SCRIBES COWARDLY ACTION
OF GERMAN FLEET

Admiral Sir David Beatty, in his
speech on board the Lion after the
surrender of the German fleet, ex-
prest his contemptuous pity for the
foe. AS reportedo by the London
Chronicle he said
"It was a pitiable sight-in fact it
was horrible sight-to see those
great ships following British light
cruiser and being shepherded like a
flock of sheep by the Grand Fleet.
We expected them to have the cour-
age that we look for from those whose
work lies upon great waters; we ex
pected them to do something for the
honor of their country; and | am sure
chat the sides of this gallant old ship,
which have been well hammered in
the past, must have ached, as | ached
and as you ached, to give them an
other taste of what we had intended
for them. But I will say this, that
their hunifiating end was sure end
and a proper, end to an enemy who
has proved himself SO lacking in
tactics, and his behavior have been
contempt, and worthy of a nation
which has wageds war in the manner
in which the enemy has waged war"
marks:
eff the German rulers had behaved
with the very least sense of honor or
chivalry, we should have felt sad at
such national humiliation even when
undergone by our bitterest enemy. AS
it is, we can feel nothing of the kind"
