 Many umbrellas still awaiting claimants at the Prefecture of Police loft property office are of costly kind, ranging in value from 100 to 500 francs and are fine examples of the latest craze for Japanese ivory sword handled affairs.

TACOMA, Wash, Feb. 22.-White ants are responsible for the large shipments of cedar logs and lumber from this section to Japan, accord ing to Japanese shippers who take lumber cargo here. They say the white ant is one of the pests of Japan and it has an appetite for wood.

Lodge Of Sorrow
Celebrated By Elks

The Devils Lake Elk's Lodge No.
1916 celebrated it's Lodge Of Sorrow
on Sunday afternoon at it's home here
in a very appropriate manner. A
similar program to the one put
on here was also carried out by all of
the lodges in the country on the same
day. The principal feature of the
program here was the splendid men,
orial address delivered by Tracy R.
Bangs Of Grand Forks, who in
masterful way paid tribute to the
departed members, and then talked
against Socialism in much of the
remainder of his address. He told of
the rapid spread of this doctrine in
the United States and the many evils
that have come from it wherever it
was given half chance to develop,
and what might be expected if it
got in full swing. His talk was i'm
pressive and convincing, and left no
doubt in the minds of his auditors as
to what Socialism would eventually
bring this great country of ours to
if allowed to fully develop. MI. Bangs
also spoke harshly of the secret or
ganizations which were fast develop
ing in the United States and especial
ly the Ku Klux Klan.
The eulogy to the departed members
Of the Elks lodge here was delivered
by Victor WARDROBE of Leeds, and he
paid splendid tribute to the several
members who have passed away and
especially the late John Kelly, whc
was personal friend Of the speaker
The Gable orchestra rendered
several selections, and the solos by
Miss Marie Locke and Miss Holda
Dokken were very much appreciated
by the large audience present. Miss
Gertrude Riordan and Miss Agnes
Olson sang a duet, Zone Sweetly So
lemn Thought" and members of the
lodge sang "Auld Lang Syne' at the
close. The invocation and closing
prayer was delivered by Avery john
son.
Members Of the lodge who passed
away during the past year are Law
renee E. Netherly, Miles A. Miller
Jacob R. Collar and John Kelly. The
meeting pas presided over by Exalted
Ruler William Stevens.

Goldberg Has
Large Stock of
Classy Furniture

There are very few furniture stores
In the. northwest where cleaner or
more up-to-date stock Of furniture
may be found than shown at the pres
ent time at the Goldberg Furniture
Store in this city. By going from one
end Of the store to the other none but
the latest pieces and and suites may
be seen, pieces which have just recent
ly been put on the market. Not only
are the late styles, but also the late
finishes are shown. When buying
this stock last summer, and it was
mostly all shipped in during the fall
months, Mr.. Goldberg showed rare
judgement in picking out such goods
as>will meet the approval of his many
customers here, and a single glance
at his attractive store is enough to
convince anyone that he most certain
ly understands the furniture game.
His stock is not only large, but COM
plete in every detail. Most anything
desired in his line will be found in
stock, and he anticipates a very
heavy Christmas trade.

Of work as a stick Of 40 percent dy-
Mantle. The government refuses to
