McGHEE MAKES GOOD

Perhaps no other county in this section
of the state can show the results in its
rural school development that have been
shown during the past four years under the
guidance of J. C. McGhee. Mr.. McGhee
has served but one term in this office and
bv his untiring effort and faithful service
has rightfully earned another term.
The endorsement given him by Miss
Mary Lilleskov,. assistant superintendent
and Miss Isabelle Holdahl acting assistant,
is a compliment to any official.
In their endorsement they point out a
few facts, which cannot help but meet with
general approval. Among these facts may
be found the following: the average rural
school term has been heightened; daily
attendance increased eighteen days, loss
apportionrnent decreased; teachers etfic-

GUST THE BANDITS

In letter to the Pioneer, E. E.. Nc
Donald, one Of the county's leading at
torneys suggests that immediate action be
taken by the citizens to rid the commun-
iy of bank robbers and hold-up men, In
his letter he says:
o"The presence of bank robbers and
hold-up bandits in Northern Minne-
sofa and the inability of the police Of
ficers and sheriffs to afford protec-
ton, from them in advance, makes it
necessary for the citizens to take if
possible, concerted action to rid the
community of, in the first place, all
criminals, if that can be done, and to
putean end to their existence.
; May we suggest that immediate
action be taken by the citizens look
ing toward concerted, effective ac-
tion, to protect US against these crimi-
mails. Can not our citizens be armed
so that in the event opportunity af-
fords, the criminal may be taken
dead or alive? Cannot the Pioneer aid
in this effort
In International Falls, near the Cana
dian border, it did not take long for the
citizens to capture pair of "gun artists
and if the police and sheriff's office want
the assistance of our citizens in concert
ed move to rid the community OF undeslr-
ables, they will find assistance galore.
Mr.. ,McDonald's suggestion is timely
and good and may have to be resorted to
if holdups and robberies continue.

MEMORIAL PARK

Doesn't the word memorial" mean
something that serves to preserve the
memory of? We all know that acts
of memory are conditioned from with
out by factors of regency and repeti-
ton and from within by vividness or
interest or associate thoughts.
Sometimes memory grows poor
sometimes past experiences are for
gotten-ofttimes the order of events
is wrongly recalled, but where is the
man or woman in our civilized, intel
ligent community who has forgotten
that eleven of our Boys" made the
supreme sacrifice lover there in the
World War, in order that we-fathers,
mothers, sisters, brothers, friends
might live?
What can we do for them?
A monumental record we will have
in Memorial Park-one that will speak
to us day after day-one that will help
us to live better, cleaner, purer lives
one that will help US to keep in men,
DRY the brave acts and sacrifices of
the boys, for the best way to keep
good acts in memory is, as Cato said,
ITO refresh them with new"
Year after year we can enhance the
beauty of the Park in so many ways,
and by so doing we can keep the boys
memory green and instil into the
minds of the coming generation the
bravery and the fortitude of those
eleven boys in whose honor Memorial
Park will be.
Can any one of our readers afford to
have his name go down in history as a
Stacker in this cause?
In the years to come do you want
your children to point in pride to Me-
mortal Park and say "my mother and
father helped to do that" or do you
want them to hang their heads in
shame that their parents cared to
make no sacrifice (if need be) in even
so small way to show their appre-
citation of those who died for them on
Flanders Field?

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY %, 1872
HELD FOR MANSLAUGHTER

Charges of involuntary manslaugh-
ter were last Wednesday made against
nine men held responsible by the cor
oner's jury for the loss of 81 lives in
the Knickerbocker theatre diaster in
Washington January %.
The men were held under $4,000
bail pending the action of the grand
jury, which meets on the case this
week.
The accused are:
Reginald w. Geare, architect; John
Howard Ford, engineer; Morris Hack
er, building inspector; Donald Wallace,
general ~foreman;F Frank l.. Wagner,
general contractor; Richard G. Fletch-
er, foreman for sub-contractors; John
L. Costigan, engineer; Julian r. Down
man, assistant building inspector.
On account of the Investigations
following the Knickerbocker disaster
seven theaters in the capital city, in
GLIDING two legitimate theaters and
five movie houses have been ordered
closed. Two of the houses closed-the
New National and Poli's-are very old
ranking among the oldest in the coun-
try Polls is owned by the Federal
Government and is leased to s. v.
Poll and the Shuberts. The theaters
will probably remain closed until they
undergo repairs and changes necess-
airy to conform with the orders of the
Commissioners of the District of CO.

PEANUTS VALUABLE FOOD

| Peanuts are high in food value, says
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture, but there is no foundation
for the recently circulated report that
peanuts promote the growth of hair.
Investigations carried on in the Bu-
reau of Chemistry with regard to the
chemical and nutritive properties Of
the proteins of the peanut have DEM
! onstrated that, aside from the oil,
which is easily digested and which fur
finishes large amount of fuel or ener-
gy, the shelled peanut contains about
20 per cent. of protein of high nu-
tritional quality.
When we eat protein we consume in
reality 1s or 20 substances, known as
amino acids, each one of which may
have quite special functions in nutri-
ton. Some proteins are deficient in
certain of these acids and will not pro-
mote growth. Peanut protein, -how-
ever, is rich in the amino acids which
are lacking in the proteins of corn and
grain, and for that reason peanuts are
an excellent supplement to a cereal
diet, whether in the form of meal or
press cake fed with corn and cereal to
animals or as supplement to wheat
protein when used with wheat flour in
bread making.
The erroneous idea that eating pea
nuts will affect the growth of the hair
may have arisen from the fact that
hair, wool, feathers, and similar ami
NAL tissues, when analysed, show a
relatively large amount of cystine,
which is one of the amino acids pres
ent in protein. Even were the as
sumption true that by eating foods
containing cystine the growth of the
hair could be stimulated, it would not
apply in the case of peanuts, which do
not contain as high q percentage of
cystine as many other common foods.

JURY SERVICE OPTIONAL FOR
WOMEN

Jury service for women was made
optional by adding to the bill and
amendment adopted last Wednesday
by the House of Delegates.
The vote was 70 for the amendment
and % against. The adoption of the
amendment followed a warm debate
in which opponents of optional service
alleged that optional service would
mean only women undesirable for jury
service would offer themselves while
the women desirable for this duty
would take advantage of the. option
and not serve.

Unless the strikes are peaceably and

coal mines can be seized, taken over
and operated by the United States
government. This will put an end to
peace without unnecessary delay in
the premises. Later on Gn order to
avoid and settle these strikes by arbi-
tration) each state Of the Union can
create and establish for itself an in
dustrial court-like the one in the
state Of Kansas which can be improv-
ed if necessary. So there will be no
more coal strikes and the federal gov
