EXHIBIT OF BEES AT
MINNESOTA STATE FAIR

Bees have a language and sys-
tenn of biography, according to Prof.
Francis JAEGER, chief of the division of
bee culturyat the University of Min
nesota farm. Wonderful progress has
been made in bee culture, but their
means of communication still remains
a mystery, according to Prof. JAEGER,
who will have several exhibits at the
Minnesota State Fair, September 4
to II.
Prof. JAEGER has conducted many ex-
periments in an effort to learn some
thing of the bees mysterious form
of communication. In one of them
he took the Queen bee out of hive,
which was four to five feet high. AS
sooPas the working bees discovered
their leader was missing, they began
.Grying. The crying was audible four
: or five feet from the hive. Within 80
seconds after the Queen bee had been
replaced at the bottom of the hive,
. the crying subsidized at the top of the
hive and they showed their Joy by
standing on their heads, according
to- Prof. JAEGER.

WILSON TO PERFORM
AERIAL STUNTS AT FAIR

Jules Vedrines landed on the roof
Of the Galleries Lafayette in Paris,
but he never performed the feat of
changing from one plane to another
in midair, like Al Wilson, who will
don't without the aid of a rope ladder
at the Minnesota state fair, Septem-
Der to II.
Vedrines accomplished his feat only
,once-Wilson does his act every day.
Wilson believes there is a great
future for the airplane. He declares
that it will be only matter of few
years when traffic rules and regula-
tions will govern aviation throughout
the nation, the same as automobile
traffic is governed today. A few of
the more progressive cities, including
Minneapolis, have passed laws govern
ing air traffic, but to date no organ
lied effort has been made to control
aerial highways.

is the Srule in the Episcopal church
that no church shall be consecrated
that is in debt. During the last year
St. Bartholomew has been entirely
cleared Of Indebtedness, and the
beautiful editice is to be consecrated.
This church was built chiefly thru
the efforts Of the late Archdeacon
Parshall, and is a monument to his
untiring zeal. At Mr.. Parshall's un-
timely death a" large debt remained,
and his successor, Rev. George Back
hurst, has earnestly devoted himself
to the clearing of this debt and to the
further identifying of the interior of
the building. Many valuable pieces
Of ecclesiastical furniture have been
added until now St. Bartholomew
is one of the finest churches in the
diocese of Duluth.
Rev. George Backhurst has held
the combined Offices of rector of St.
Bartholomew and district superin-
tendent of all white and Indian mis-
sions in this northwestern part of the
diocese. After nearly four years of
this extensive work the Rev. George
Backhurst. much to the regret of his
congregation, is leaving the work for
another parish in Brooklyn, Mich.
He will preach his farewell sermon

NAVAL RECRUITING
PARTY in CITY FOR WEEK

G. J. Morganstern and two naval
men, composing the navy travelling
recruiting party, are in the city with
headquarters in the basement of the
postoffice. This party will make that
place their headquarters for a few
days while on their recruiting mission
for the United States navy.
Men seventeen to thirty-fve years
of age may enlist for periods of two,
three or four years. The party has
moving picture film showing the
flight of the NC4 from United States
to Europe, which will be exhibited
at the Rex theatre at both perform
ances for the balance of the week.
Any information desired regarding
enlistments by men interested will
gladly be given. The navy has many
inducements to offer young men, of
an educational and vocational nature,
and the training obtained by young
men in their two or three year period
of enlistment would prove of wonder
full value in later life.

WAR RISK INSURANCE
TOPIC AT LEGION MEET
Service Department of Ameri-
lean Legion Handle Over
1000 Cases a Month

Duluth, Aug. 1.-THE tremend ous
volume of inquiries by service men,
which have been handled since June
1919, was touched upon today at the
state convention Of the American
Legion. H. \. Hauenstein of, St
Paul, service department officer
made his report on the activities of
the state war risk office.
The high spots of Mr.. Hauenstein's
report are contained in these para
graphs:
THE state war risk office of The
American Legion was put into effect
and became active in June, 1919. In
June, July and August, the majority
Of the cases concerned war risk insur-
ance. About 100000 insurance was
reinstated or converted. About Sep
TENDER 1, a question Of tuition grant
ed by the state Of Minnesota brought
numerous inquiries and we settled
IS cases in short order In Septemb-
er. 1919, the work of this office in
creased practically 1000 per cent.
During the month we handled about
1900 cases. They were of the follow
ing nature: Allotment and allowance,
compensation, back pay, bonus. bond,
|clothing. discharge, insurance in
quiries, insurance conversions, insur-
ance reinstatements, insurance death
claims. naturalizations, vocational
training. pensions. travel pay and
miscellaneous.
Prom Sept. to May /. an average
of nearly 1000 cases a month were
handled. From May to August /,
this total gradually increased until,
at the present time. from 400 to 500
cases are being taken care Of Our
correspondence has averaged 81 cases
a day from the time this office was
opened
ut has been only thru the splen-
did cooperation Of the various post
war risk officers thruout the state,
that we have been able to give this
amount Of service to the ex-service
men. The post war risk officers have
handled direct wit h Washington, a
large number of their own cases. ap-
preciHting the necessity of saving
time"
Duluth. Aug. 17.-Amendments
