OPENED AT VANCOUVER
(By International Service.)

Vancouver, B. c., May 13.-Mem-
bers of the British Columbia Noun
tain club have discovered, mapped
out and opened up a trail to a re-
markable Alpine Park almost at the
door of this city, where in a space
of about 500 square miles are gleam-
ing snowfelds, majestic mountain
peaks, volcanic craters and lake in
the clouds.
Situated in the heart of the Mt.
Garibaldi and Mt. Mamquam region,
at the head of Howe Sound, this
scenic grandeur, hitherto unknown
to any save the Indians and an oc-
casional questing trapper, is within
four hours run by boat and train
from this city. The provincial gov
eminent will shortly declare it pub
lie reserve.
With the ocean almost directly
alongside, every foot Of this region
is at least 5000 feet above sea level,
while theahigher peaks-Castle Tow
ers, Red Mountain, Sentinel, Sphinx,
Table Rock, Black Tusk, Mamquam
and Garibaldi, all rise from 1000 to
$500 feet.

ling increase in the number OF cases
OF juvenile delinquency Is due to the
failure of parents to keep step with
their children.
This declaration was mace by Po-
lice Chief Vollmer, in addressing

sic, business and domestic pursuits
and made the nervous system a liza
bility instead Of an asset, the Chief
asserted. must send the parents to
school lest the child outdistance his
elders to the hall of fame or the penn

THE complexities Of childhood are
too much for the average father or
mother, who does not delve down into
the cause of things said the Chief
Moreover, the average person is not
equipped with scientific knowledge to
diagnose situations that may arise.
1t takes an expert trained In such
matters, and for that reason public
bureau where parents may bring
their children and their problems
would not only help the individual
but the community at large"
Such q bureau, the Chief said.

school or police departments.
Among the various types of chill
dren which the Chief declared, such
a bureau could treat" are the pre-
cocious, nervous, tidgety, thieving,
lazy, lying irritable and trouble
boy or girl.
"All OF these characteristics are
defects which II taken in time might
be overcome or if cultivated will lead
to serious results in the future" said
the chief. 1T is necessary that the
child of today be studied and correct
ed so that the criminal Of tomorrow

VIRGINIA STRIKE
APPARENTLY OVER

According to- dispatches to the
Duluth Herald of May IL from Vir-
ginia conditions are continuing to be-
come more nearly normal each day.
The dispatch read as follows:
Virginia, Mimi, May IL. - (Spe-
cial to the Herald. )-Sawmill Off
Gals here claim the strike is prac-
tically over. Their statement that
there are more men applying for work
each morning is substantiated by
patrolmen on duty near the mills.
To Start Night Shift.
Preparation in expectation of re-
Stunning a night shift shortly has been
begun by the Rainy Lake Lumber
company.
Many of those who took part in
the walkout will not return to work
very soon. Some have left and have
taken up employment on farms and
in the mines.
Since the beginning Of the strike
the w. T. Bailey Lumber company's
mill has not lost an hour. This mill
is picketed the same as the Virginia
& Rainy Lake, but the strike is EVIL
IDENTIFY directed against the larger
concern.
The lath mill of the J. Neils Lum-
Der company resumed operations yes
terday on the ten-hour basis. This
branch of the mill employees about
thirty men.
There is no further change in the
local situation. Contrary to a re-
port circulated in International Falls,
the Bemidji mills have not in any
way changed their attitude and have
no intentions Of opening excepting on
their outlined policy.

Commissioner Of Game and
Fish Gives Interesting Talk
to Association
THOMAS PORTE ALSO
DELIVERS FINE SPEECH
committee Report Heard on
Local Arrangements Sum-
= mer Meet of N.M.D.A.

Very clearly did Carlos Avery, state
game and fish commissioner for Min
nesota, explain to the members of the
Bemidji Civic and Commerce assOcia-
ton at its meeting on Wednesday fol-
lowing the MONDAY luncheon the
plans being made for the Bemidji fish
hatchery located at the dam on the
Mississippi near the Minnesota Elec-
trio Light & Power company's plant.
The hatchery has been operated for
several years in small way but until
recently has never been very much of
a success. All credit for what has
been accomplished is due to the local
citizens viii were very active in
keeping it up. Aid has not been Sc
cured to make this hatchery per-
manent proposition which is now in
, operation to a large extent but not
entirely completed. 1t is already near
filled with wall-eyed pike eggs. When
fully completed and operating to ca
pacity it will contain 400 Matching
jars with a total of $50 million pike
eggs. AS yet, the hatchery is being
used for Matching walleyed pike
only. Possibly some time later white
fish may be. Matched to some extent.
At the Red Lake hatcheries white
fish are being Matched for food sup
ply. Approximately 80 million Pike
eggs have been taken from Wolf Lake
and 80 million from Turtle River re-
Gently and the majority of these have
been placed in the Bemidji hatchery.
Minnesota Has Most Pike ="
More wall-eyed pike are Matched in
Minnesota than in all the remaining
states together. Minnesota is to CO.
operate with the federal government
and with other states and is furnish
ing them with pike eggs and receiv-
ing in return varieties of fish which
are not common here. There are at
present in the state 8 fisheries for
*.wall-eyed pike and in another year
there should be twice as many.
Whiteish Lake near Brainerd Is to
have a hatchery similar to the one
here at Bemidji this summer. Mr..
Avery desires that everyone knowing
of a place where pike eggs may be OBJ

LEGION BASEBALL IS
TO HAVE SUPPORT OF
FIRST CLASS PLAYERS
All That Is Lacking Now Is
Financial Support From
This City

Expected to arrive in Bemidji on
Saturday is an exceptionally strong
battery for the American Legion team
which is to represent the Ralph Oracle
post during the coming season. First
of next week five more players are
due to arrive to strengthen the nine
for the games this summer and these
men, together with the local support,
will be brought into shape to whip
Crosby in the game at the ball park
next week, Friday.
For a pitcher, Art Taylor of Madi-
son, Wis.,, has been secured. He
pitched for the Headquarters troop
Of the Thirty-second division and has
an admirable record while out of the
service. Over Lane, star pitcher for
Crosby, he is said to have won three
shut-out victories. These men will
have an opportunity for another try
next week, and the outcome promises
to be favorable to 'Bemidji fans. A
catcher who has been connected with
the American Association has been
secured and with this battery Be-
midi should have a team that can
beat the best of them.
Financial support is sorely needed
now and to secure this Manager Fred
Bost is soliciting support from the
citizens of Benidji who are live wires
and who take great interest in ath-
letics. Considerable expense will be
involved by putting first class team
in the field this year but with hearty
support the team is sure to make
good for the Legion and themselves.

LAND CLEARING
CAMPAIGN WILL
INCREASE WEALTH
Minnesota Will Become Great
or Bread and Butter State
Than Ever

With a land-clearing educational
campaign now under full headWay,
Minnesota, in the next few years will
become a much greater BREAD and
Butter" state than she is today.
There are more than 100000
fertile acres of cut-over land in Min
nesota to be cleared-an area just
about eQualing the combined total
area of four of the New England
states, Connecticut, Massachusetts,
New Hampshire and Rhode Island.
To hasten the civilization of this
vast domain of productive soil is the
object of a special land clearing dem
aonstration train which soon will leave
st Paul and visit about twenty-five
towns in the logged-off SECTIONS of
middle northern and northeastern
minnesota.
During those five trips 100000
farmers were instructed in the proper
use of dynamite and stump pulling
machinery. AS a result of these dem
constructions in Wisconsin during 1918
100000 pounds of dynamite were
used there for land clearing and last
year 100000 pounds was shot on
for the same purpose, or three times
as much explosive as was used for
stump blowing in the state of Mime
sofa. This year, Wisconsin, the dy-
Mantle sales for stump blowing ex-
coed 100000 pounds.
Since upper Minnesota must be de-
veloped through the use of dynamite
the use of dynamite and stump pull
ing devices, the state itself is regard
ed as the proper source of educational
work to this end. It, therefore be-
comes the duty of the state to dissem-
mate knowledge of the proper use of
these instruments for the clearing of
this stump land.
