LA VERNA DUCAS MAKES
DECIDED HIT AT GRAND

The many friends of La Verna
Dugas, and others in the large aud
fence at the Grand theatre last night,
were delightfully."- entertained by the
charming dance and song numbers
rendered by that capable young lady.
Miss Dugas displayed remarkable agil-
ity, poise and grace in presenting
her three selections, which, were ap-
plauded so generously that she was
compelled to appear repeatedly. Her
performance created so much favor
able comment that it warrants the
prediction for this former Bemidji
young lady that she is destined to
be a star attraction throughout the
country within a short time. She
will make her final appearance on
the stage in Bemidji, at the Grand
theatre tonight.

A Jewish merchant, an old retired
sea captain and a priest.
These are three of the outstand-
ing characters in The Rosary
the special SeligtRork feature at
traction, founded on the stage play
by Edward E. Rose and the immortal
song Of the same name, which will
be scrende at the Rex theater
tonight last times.
On the front porch of Faith r
Brian Kelley these three old cronies
gather and discuss the problems and
make plans for the happiness and
prosperity Of the little fishing vii
lage Of Sandy Bay.
There are no racial or religious
predjudices in this little group. They
are one in striving toward that long
sought goal the brotherhood of man.
Lewis S. Stone is said to give a
mangificient Characterization as the
fine outstanding Father Kelley, while
the work Of Bert Woodruff as the
crusty old Captain Mather, and Dore
Davidson as Isaac Abrahamson, the
merchant, is declared to represent
the best they have yet given to the
screen.
According to advance reports,
'The Rosary" not only presents some
remarkable character sketches, but
it is also one of the most powerful
romantic photodramas of the year.

NO HURT TO HEART
Athletic Contests Not Injurious AS

Athletics do not unduly affect the
heart. according tC commission head

their performances, relates a Paris
dispatch.
Tests were made on champion rum

and bicycle riders.
"Hypcrtrophia resulting from ath-

the heart and works absolutely no
harm," declared the doctor afterward.
II have no hesitation in indorsins
athletics as beneficial to the body ana

alleged that athletics overstraincd the
