HAMLlNE CLEE CLUB TO
SING HERE FEBRUARY II
Enjoyable Program Is Assured
When Club Sings Under
Auspices of Elks y

The Mems Glee club of Hamline
university, St. Paul, will sing at the
new armory on the evening of Feb
ruary II. Through the efforts OF
the Elks club, the Glee club, which
is touring the state, has been induced
to make an engagement here.
The Hamline Glee club is one OF
the oldest glee club organizations in
the Northwest. It is making its 3Sth
annual tour this year. The l6 men
of the club are under the direction
of Prof. ia. Jaeger, as well known
tenor soloist of the Twin Cities, who
also takes part in the program.
The club went to the Pacific coast
last winter performing in most of
the larger western cities. Its en-
gagements were followed by most
flattering press comments. The Salt
Lake Tribune of Salt Lake City said,
Really worthwhile was the program
presented at the First Methodist
church by the Mems Glee club OF
Hamline university. The program,
excellently given throughout, was of
great variety, with sober, sentiment
tall gay, dramatic and comic selec-
tons included IN the entertainment.
In attack, phrasing, and ensemble,
the chorus showed genuine musician

man Review, Spokane, WASH, read:

The program for this year will be
more varied than ever, says Profess

club numbers, there will be vocal
solos, flute solos, quartets, readings,

VOTING ON SCHOOL BOND
ISSUE THIS AFTERNOON
Polls at Central School Will Be
Open Until 8 O'Clock To-
night to Vote on Issue

Voters of Independent School Dis
trict No. z began casting their ballots
this afternoon at 4 o'clock at the
Central school building for or against
a 100000 school bond issue to de-
fray the expense of installing a
plumbing, heating and ventilating
plant in the new high school building
being constructed in Bemidji and to
equip the building with apparatus
and other school furniture. The polls
will remain open until 8 o'clock this
evening. ., b. s.@, ;.
Although it was not expected that
any serious objection would be
raised against issuing bonds at 5 k
per cent interest at this time, in
place of issuing warrants for the
completion of the work, it was ex-
pected that a fairly representative
vote would be cast. Issuing Of school
warrants to complete the work is
considered far more costly to the
district than issuing bonds at this
time.
2 Work on the new building is be-
ing pushed and assurance has been
given that it will be ready for the
opening of the regular school work
next fall. >
Another special school election has
been called for February 8, to vote
on member of the school board to
fill the vacancy caused by the recent
resignation of Quincy Brooks.

FROM BRAINERD OUTFIT
Local Squad Shows Improve
ment and Takes District
Game BY 10 to 6 Count

Bemidji high school increases its
CHATTING" average in the Third Ath-
letic district race Friday evening by
defeating the Brainerd high school
basketball squad by score of 10 to
on the home floor, in the first en-
counter between these two teams this
season Lax refereeing slowed up
the game.
.. The first period ended with the
score to I in favor of the locals.
Both teams played for several min
utes before either scored, and then
Brainerd failed to connect with q
field goal in the first period. Smith
Of Bemidji scored two field baskets
and Davis scored three out of three
free throws, completing the locals
scoring in the first half.
/: The first Of the second half was
very closely played, neither team
making any particular Roadway. The
last few minutes of play, however,
saw Bemidji pile up a big lead with
four additional field baskets. Neu-
mann scored three field goals in this
half, while Davis scored two goals
and two out of two free throws.
Heinkenen Of Brainerd, left
guard, led the scoring for his team
with two field baskets in the last
half. Engbretson completed the
scoring with two free throws, one in
each period.
The game was hard-fought from
start to finish and somewhat rough
er than the usual high school game.
Bemidji showed improvement over
previous games seen here, although
the scoring was not as heavy as usu-
al. Brainerd guarded closely, pre-
venting a number of. possible point
getters for Bemidji. .T@ >..'..@@
In the last period, Neumann- was
injured and Peterson, substituted for
him. Davis, Henry and Smith play
ed through the entire game. Boyce,
left guard, played all but few min
utes of the game, having been forced
to leave the floor when one shoe was
badly torn. -. >,
Rod johnson of Cass Lake refereed
the game, due to the fact that the
coach of the Crosby-Ironton squad
failed to appear. The Juvenile band
gave fine program before the game
and between the halves.

LUMBER MARKET REPORT
SHOWS. STEADY PROGRESS
In Pine and Hemlock District
of North, the Demand Has
Shown Some Increase

The lumber market is making
steady progress. Numerous buyers
are visiting producing sections and
a good deal Of quiet buying is under
way. A good deal of buying is also
being done at the annual meetings of
vetail associations, some of which
were, held last week, although most
will be held during the next three
weeks. ~ &C., ~.
A survey of stocks in manufacture
ers' hards does not reveal a great
deal Of unsold lumber. While there
has been some accumulation during
the last six weeks in southern pine
territory, stocks are broken and the
present volume of demand is more
than sufficient to take care of cur
rent production. As there is every
reason to expect an increase in de-
mand, it is evident that the market
faces a period of activity with
strengthening prices.
On the Pacific coast the export de-
n1aiid shows less activity, particular
" that from Japan. The cargo
mills, however, have on hand a large
volume of export cutting orders,
particularly anxious for special cut
particularly anxious for specila cut
ting for several weeks. Is Yard stocks
are badly broken and prices show a
decided upward tendency.
In the Moth Carolina pine district
stocks are badly broken and orders
for such shipments are the rule rath
er than the exception. Prices are
firm with an upward trend.
Stocks 81 hardwoods both in the
North and in the South are unusually
small. Nineteen twenty-one witness
ed exceptionally low hardwood pro-
ducti0n and; as buying by industrial
concerns, shows steady and con-
slant increase, there is foreseen an
active market that will sustain prices.
The hardwood lumbermen generally
are Of the opinion that getting hard
wood lumber will be a bigger prob
lem than selling it. The outstanding
feature Of the week was favorable
decision BY the Interstate Commerce
Commission in the hardwood rate
case, railroads being ordered to make
substantial reductions in rates on
hardwood lumber from the South.
IN the pine producing regions OF
the West, and in the pine and hem
lock manufacturing district of the
North, the demand has shown some
Increase. Orders, as is natural at
this season, very materially exceed
production and are rapidly eating in
to stocks available for sale. Prices
show firming up tendency.

"You can do anything while listen
