By DAVID wARK GRIFFITH

In introducing motion pictures as
Americas fourth or fifth largest indus
| try, one might also identify them as
Americas largest and most popular
target for criticism
Where lives a person who hasen't
said: "The movies are awful; or said
something to that effect?
| That is as it should be. II proves
motion pictures are important and pro-
crossing. You hear no such criticism
from all sides for our American music,
painting, writing or stage. That is be-
cause the public does not expect any
great improvement in these arts, but
does expect it in motion pictures.
A savage and ruthless denunciation
OF motion pictures by one of the most
prominent dramatic critics in this
country, first awakened me to the fact
that motion pictures were to become
the dominent educational and enter
tainment force in the world was too
busy at the time to give much thought
to the future. But / realized that this
shrewd gentleman saw in them some
thing more powerful than his beloved
stage or he could not have spurred
his thoughts to such high tide of
fierce protest.
We do not spend much time CRITICS

If the public ever stops complaining
about its motion pictures, we shall be.
come alarmed.
Enter Prohibition.
Criticism has its fads and fancies
just as much as anything else. AT
present it is popular to criticise the
motion pictures harshly. In way
lfeel that prohibition has had something
to do with this public irritability, re
garding pictures. People substituted
the motion picture shows for the Gus
tomary drinking diversion. And quar-
relied with the films because they
didn't get the same effect.
There need be no alarm about mo
ton pictures as long as the makers
strive to interpret life as naturally as
they can. Superficial critics shout
with outraged despair about something
in a motion picture not being realistic
Realism isn't the important thing
, Naturalism is.

Suicide at mahnomen.

Mahnomen was the seen of a
tragedy last week wnen William
Holliston, who recently moved to
Mahnomen from Ogema, shot
himself through the head with a
shot gun and died instantly. Mr..
Holliston lived at Ogema for some
time where he conducted hotel
and restaurant, recently moving
to Mahnomen where he engaged in
the same business. His wife was
in the same room with him when
he committed the rasa deed, but
was powerless to prevent it. The
body was removed to the Lovin
undertaking rooms and prepared
for burial. On Thursday a short
funeral service was held at the
undertakers by Rev. W. w. Dale
and the body shipped to his old
home at Grant Falls for burial.
|. So far as is known their bust
ness was as prosperous as they had
hoped for. Mr.. Holliston was
we'll known here and many resi-
dents in the surrounding territory
had known him as a boy. All
unite in saying that he is the last
man that could be suspected of
doing such a'deed and are unable
to explain it.
Mr.. Holliston's mother and
sister from Sioux City, Ia, his
brother from Ogema, and a BROTH
er of Mrs. Holliston's who is
connected with a bank at Lidger-
wood, N. d., came to Mahnomen
to accompany the remains to the
old home for burial.
Three little girls were left
Ifsatherless by the death of Mr..
Holliston.

Red Lake and Redby'

There are three general stores
at Red Lake and one at Redby.
These are Indian villages and are
both located on the shores of Red
Lake, the largest body of water
wholly within state in the United
Sta ties.
At Red Lake is situated the In.
dian Reservation schools and
buildings, where there may be
found a big family of government
employees under the supervision
of G. w. Cross, superintendent of
the Indian agency.
The Minneapolis, Red Lake and
Manitoba railway runs to Redby
from Bemidji and maintains it's
repair shops at this point, From
Redby to Red. Lake agency is a
five mile auto road, which is kept
in good repair and open for travel
both summer and winter.
The state fisheries are operated
at Redby, from where many tons
Eof fish are shipped daily to points
in the state and through the
United States: 1t is here where
the state employs men to catch
fish in large nets and literally tons
are pulled up at one time.
To those who have never seen
this large body of water we urge
them to do so, as it is rare treat
to see this wonderful lake.
|a At the Indian agency the In
dams are taught how to farm at
the farm school and many have
developed splendid cultivated
farms. The soil on the reserva-
ton is especially adopted to the
growing of corn, potatoes, clover,
etc., and some of the best crops
in the state are grown there.
Practically every year at the
great Minnesota State Fair, some
of the Indian farmers carry away
blue ribbons for crops raised.
Large quantities of maple sugar,
made from pure maple sap, is
made ON the reservation each year
and, always brings premium
wherever sold. If you want to
see the modern Indian and what
ne can do. attend the Indian Fair,
which is usually held during the
month of September at Red Lake.
