NORMAL CLASSES GIVE
FIRST MAY FESTIVAL

A large and appreciative audience
witnessed the May, Festival so sue
cessfully given last night by ~.ie Ply
steal Education classes at the Normal
school, including the aesthetic dane
ing class of the high school girls.
In spite of the Strong wind which
made it difficult. to give some of the
exercises, the results were excellent.
All of the work had been taught
in the regular gymnasium courses
and was given by representatives
from the various classes. From the
drills, Indian clubs and dumbell work
through the national and folk dances
to the final dance around the May
pole, the work showed thorough
training of the classes. The pleas
ing costuming Of the interpretive
and national dances, and the delight
full outdoor setting added much to the
beauty of the performance.

FIRST BOX OF BURIED
TREASURE IS UNEARThED
NEAR CENTRAL BUILDING
Byron Benson Locates One of
Nine Boxe: Of Silver and Tic
kets to "The Silver Horde"

One Bemidji lad, perhaps more in
dustrious than most lads, located one
of the nine boxes of buried treasure
which are planted in various places
within the limits of the city. In
the box which Byron Benson found
was quantity Of silver amounting to
something over one dollar and four
tickets to "The Silver Horde" which
will appear at the Grand theatre for
an extended run beginning on We'd
nesday, June 3, and continuing for
three days. This is the first box
which has been located since the an
nouncement was made that several
had been buried around the city. The
boy found the box buried only short
depth below the surface of the
ground near tree con the south
side of the Central school building.
Other boxes have been buried as
follows and are waiting for some ~
dustrious person to find them: One
on Bemidji avenue between Tenth
and Fourteenth streets, one by the
High school, one on Fourth street be-
tween the Lake shore and Minnesota
avenue, one along the pavement on
the way to NymOre, one by the North
school, one by, the Lincoln school,
one by the State Normal, and still an
other by the Central school In addf-
ton to the one already found. Find
ers of the boxes are asked to COM
municate with the management OF
the Grand as soon as the hiding place
is discovered.
1.-THE Silver Horde, nfne-reel Sc
quel to 1.-THE Spoilers" and written
by Rex Beach also, has been three
years in the making and is by far
one of the bsE motion pictures ever
produced. Rex Beach personally di-
rected the filming Of the play which
promises to win the favor Of every
movie fan in the country.
Young Benson, later in the even
ing, after being amply awarded from
the first search, made another on the
premises of the Central school and
found a second box of silver and tick
cts hidden on the north side Of the
building. He is still continuing the
search. Bemfdji lads should not let
this one fellow get all the money and
tickets just because he is willing to
hunt for 1t.

PICTURE LECTURE. 1.-THE

SUNDAY NIGHT
Scenes From 1.-THE Wayfarer''
Will Be Shown in Slides
~
at Methodist Church

Picture lecture on "The World at
Columbus,' on Sunday. Illustrated
by sixty-six Photographic views, a
sermon-lecture will be given, at the
Methodist church Sunday evening at
8 O'Clock on the exposition; held at
Columbus, Ohio, last summer show
ing the worldwide work Of the
church. Exhibits were gathered
showing the actual social, industrial,
and moral conditions among all
classes Of people at home and
abroad, and the difference the church
was making in its contact with these
various groups, on a scale never be-
fore ATTEMPTED. "The Call of; the
People," it was entitled. and never
50 effectively has the call Of all the
peoples of the world for what a
Christian civilization can give them
been presented. And the call was
heard, for over a million people saw
the celebration, and on July 4th, when
a disappointed crowd of 40, 900 saw
prize fight at Toledo, an enthusl-
astic crowd of over 100000 saw the
! exhibition Of a world church at work
at Columbus. ... --.
One outstanding feature. of the ex-
position was ''The 'Wayfarer," a
pageant Of Christian progress, said
to be the highest, truest, most Pro
foundry impressive portrayal OF this
nature ever produced. When repro
Iduced in. Madison Square Garden
New York, this winter, it drew crowds
for four weeks, and on one night had
the largest house of any attraction
in the city. The last group Of pic
lures Sunday evening will show the
closing scenes Of 1.-THE Wayfarer."
This will be the, Sunday evening
service of worship and there is ne
charge for admission. You will en-

LARGE REPRESENTATION
:. PRESENTED ARGUMENT:
RAIL STATION AT HINES
Hines Residents Heard Before
Il, Commissioner Jacobsen
at Hotel Markham

=; To clearly present their argument
For the establishment Of station
with station agent at Hines, large
delegation from that village was pre-
sent at the hearing held yesterday
at the Markham hotel before O. P. B.
Jacobsen of the railroad and ware
house commission. Among those who
took the stand to present evidence
for the establishment were v. M.
Owen, merchant and landowner; A.
L. Swenson & Son, merchants; Swan
A. Frfberg & Co., Tumbermen, Oper-
attng a sawmfll and retail lumber
yard at Hines; T. J. Johnson, post
master; Charles S. Carter, porperty
owner; and about 20 farmers living
in that vicinity
At present Hines has what is COM
monty called custodian service, where
man is jointly employed by the
railroad company and local bust
ness man, the employee giving only
part time to the handling Of the local
freight. Hines is situated on the Min
nesota and International Railway in
one of the most fertile farming Sec
lions in Beltrami county and for a
number Of years has furnished the
railway company with a large guam
tfty Of shipping. A small shed for
the storage of freight has for some
time been found inadequate for the
amount Of freight handled at that
point Another small building has
been used for a number oy years as
waiting room for passengers. This
too has been found to be inadequate
for the needs of the community.
w. H. Gemmell, general manager
of the M. & I. Railway company ad-
mitted that the amount of shipments
to and from Hines was within the
requirements Of the law in order to
obtain suitable station with an
agent, but at the same time, he con-
tended that the company was not at
present in g. condition to put up g.
suitable station at this point. The
statute showing that Hines was not
an incorporated village and for that
reason the railroad commission did
not possess the authority to order the
establishment of a station there was
lcited by the company's attorney, but
this objection was overruled. Con-
Iplete evidence was taken and this
!, will be submitted to the Attorney
General. Commissioner Jacobsen as
sured the Hines citizens that decf-
, sion would be reached as soon as
possible.

at Moorhead on June Is and 16, the
Bemidji Civic and Commerce asso-
citation in regular session following
the noon day luncheon on Wednesday
voted to- appoint a committee to co.
operate, with the local department in
soliciting the necessary funds. It is
deemed that by taking the Juvenile
band to fMoorhead very successful
start will be made toward securing
for Bemidji the 1928 convention
In order to do this the local depart
ment must make an exceptionally
fine showing this year and must Sc
cure the election of Fire Chief Daley
as second vice-president Of the state
firemen.s In this way, Chief Daley
will become president in 1922 and
will still hold that office at the time
the convention would be called for
Bemidji, since the convention each
year is held in the city from which
the president is elected.
