BUILDING SKATING RINK
ON OLD SCHOOL GROUNDS
Old High School Site at Sixth
and America to Be Ready
for Skaters Soon

Bemidji is to have a much-needed
ice skating rink this winter, to be
known as the "Bemidji Ice Rink"
Mrs. Tom Smart has leased the old
high school site, Sixth and America,
and has had teams at work the past
few days leveling the ground, and it
is now nearly ready for it's first coat
ing of ice. It will be flooded from
the city water mains and be ready Tor
use some time next week, if this
weather continues.
In the center of the ground, where
the basement of the school was, will
be a warming house for the skaters
use land it is Mrs. Smart's plan later
to furnish refreshments there to those
who wish them. The ground will be
we'll lighted with electricity and teams
will keep it scraped free from snow,
and will be flooded whenever nee
essary to keep it in frst-class condi-
ton. A small charge will be made to
those who wish to use it.
While it is Mrs. Smart's intention
for all to have a good time, yet she
plans to have it conducted in such q
manner that there will be no "rowdy-
ISM" SO that all may feel free tc
com eand have good, clean sport.
Ice Kinks on Lake Bemidji have not
been success in the past and it is
hoped that by this venture BemidJl
will be furnished good out-of-dool
skating all winter, as there is no more
healthful exercise.

NORTHWEST IS PAYING
TRIBUTE TO WAR HEROES

St. Paul, Nov. 1.-THE Northwest
today paid tribute to its war heroes
as a major sentiment in connection
with the anniversary Of the signing
of the arnlistice.
Three years ago, when word came
that the armistice had been signed,
most of the populace of the country
was asleep. 1t was not long until they
were awakened, however, with bells
and whistles, shouting and firing of
guns in almost every community.
Today the celebrations were tenn
pered by the memory of tragic history
that followed. Since then the bodies
of thousands of those who died in
France during the fighting have been
brought home. Minnesota and the
Northwest have received their share
Hundreds of new graves are marked
in centuries over the Northwest.
Survivors of these and other wal
heroes marked Armistice Day by
memorial services in great many
cases.
In Minneapolis there was a civic
pageant "shadows" designed to de,
pict the heart scenes Of war history
It was a national holiday but became
more of a second memorial day.

'RANDMASTER RIGGS MAY
ORGANIZE VIOLIN CLASS
Plan Is to Later Unite Class
With Portion of Band for
Symphony Orchestra

Bandmaster G. Oliver Riggs has
been requested to open instruction
for students who wish to take violin
lessons, which he has concluded to
do provided a sufficient number OF
applicants are received.
Arrangements have been made for
the use of Miss Ida Virginia Browns
studio in the Battles block, if such a
class is organized.
Mr.. Riggs was from 1891 to 1893
at the head of the violin department
kof Iowa's oldest and best conserva-
tory of music, where students came
from various sections of the state
to take instruction under him.
If there is a. desire on the part OF
violin lovers that this class be organ
lied, Mr.. Riggs will doubtless dcvel-
op some splendid ng/instrument
players, as he has done with the brass
band and reed Instruments.
These two units brought together
would develop into a wonderful young
peoples symphony orchestra and
would advertise Bemdji rs one Of
the best musical cities in the North
west.
Parties interested are asked to no.
tify Mr. Riggs or Miss Brown, who
may be reached by telephone by call
ing Mr.. Riggs residence or Miss
! Browns studio.

The championship Of the East may
be decided through three major con-
tests that furnish one of the most

Through its traditional prestige, the
second of the Big Three " battles
between Princeton and Yale at New
Haven will be the ranking game OF the
card.
The skrmish between the Tiger ana
the Bull Dog will be of more import
ance also because the Yale eleven,
the greatest Blue aggregation OF
years, stands for the eastern title.
Surrounded by color almost as in

between the great Penn State eleven
and the Navy will perhaps be the
finest game Of the day.

IMPRESSIVE ARMISTICE 3,
CEREMONY in ENG. And \ !
Entire Nation Ceases Work for
Two Minutes to Honor
Soldier Dead
(By United PreSS)

London, Nov. 11.-The third ami
versary Of Armistice Day was cele-
brated officially and privately
thoughout the country this morning
and at II a. m. all movement ceased
for two minutes, during which the
nation stood in silent mourning Tor
the dead. The only exception was the
case of the railways whose time sched-
ule would have been dislocated by
even two minutes delay, and water
transport dependent upon the tides.
Even here, trains and boats were
halted where it could be safely done.
In the cities the hour of / was sig
nailed by rockets or bells and all We
hicles came to a halt, passengers MS
ing and standing hatless with bowed
heads. All the churches held special
services,> and the conclusion OF the
two-minute period of mourning was
heralded by joy-bells.
The biggest celebration was held
in London where vast throngs made
pilgrimages to the Cenotaph and
Westminster Abbey. At the Cenotaph
on Whitehall there was an imposing
civil and military display.
Eleven o'clock was signalled by the
discharge of the wartime air raid
rocket signals. The. troops came to
the salute, and the thousands of spec
tators massed in Whitehall stood bare
headed. In many places the uncanny
silence of the great city was broken
| by the sobs of bereaved women. At
| 11.2 = fresh salvo of rockets marked
the end Of the period of mourning
and this was followed by the singing
of the hymn 80 God Our Help in
Ages Past accompanied by the
massed bands. Upon it's conclusion
the massed buglers sounded the
"Reveille," and the ceremony ended
The public was then marshaled in
long columns marching past the Ceno.

desiring to do so, to place wreaths on
the memorial. There were many thou.

PARENTS AND TEACHERS
. - REFORM ASSOCIATION

AEsmall but: enthusiastic meeting
was held last evening by the Parent
Teacher association of the Central
school in the basement OF the Metho-
dist church. 1t was the unanimous
opinion of all present that the con-
tinuance of the association was much
desired and that there was much
which could be accomplished through
it.
It was deemed advisable to post
pone the election of permanent Of
ficers until the next meeting when 1t
is expected there will be a larger
number present. j. p. Lair was
named as temporary chairman and
&c. W. Harnwell temporary secretary.
The next meeting,will be held Tues
day night, November p. Owing to
there being no suitable room IN the
school for the purpose of holding the
meeting it was decided to use the
basement Of the Methodist church.
A program will be arranged under
the direction of Miss Ethelyn Hall,
and refreshments will be served by
refreshment committee of which
Mrs. A. V. Garlock is chairman. Miss;
Alma Munson and Mrs. J. T. Tuomy
were selected as a reception COM
mittee whose duties will be to see
that parents and teachers become ac-
quainted.
A splendid parent-teacher organize
ton is working in the North school
and spirit of cooperation has been
awakened such as that neighborhood
has not experienced to so large a
degree before and much enthusiasm
is being shown. 1t is felt that similar
results may be obtained in the or
ranizatinn of the Central school.
