Memorial Day Program.

Tomorrow, May both, is Mem.
orial Day, and as usual White
Earth will observe the day in a
manner befitting the occasion.
Owing to the fact that both the
District and Mission schools will
be dismissed the day previous for
the summer vacation, the pupils
of St. Bepedict's Mission School
will take no part in the exercises
of the day, however, the pupils of
the district school will participate
in the exercises at both the Catho.
lie and Episcopal cemeteries.
The exercises of the day will
commence at the Catholic cemetery
at 10 O'Clock a. m. The usual
addresses, songs and music by
local residents and school children
will be rendered. Presen tation of
flags to the two churches and
schools for patriotic enGeavor will
be made by Mrs. Stewart of De.
trot.
A dinner will be served by the
Catholic ladies in the Industrial
Hall for the old soldiers and their
families.
At 1:3O in the afternoon a like
program will be carried out at St.
Columba's Episcopal cemetery. 1t
has been the custom to gather at
some point within the village and
march in a body to the different
cemeteries. This will he repeated
if the roads and weather permit,
otherwise the program will be
held at the school grounds in the
afternoon.
The ranks of the veterans are
growing very thin, each year takes
its toll from the ranks of these
brave defenders of the Union.
And now we also have the depart.
ed heroes of the late World War
to pay reverence to, and it is urged
that everybody join in proper
observance of the day and pay
homage to the remaining veterans.

Editor, The ToMAHAwK:
In your issue of last week your
columns carried an article relating
to the condition of the road be-
tween this village and Ogema and
also the roads in this vicinity.
want to state for your information
that so far as the road between
this village and Ogema is concern
ed, the town board Of White Earth
has nothing whatever to do with
it, as regards dragging or in any
other way, this road was turned
over to the state three years ago
and the state alone is responsible
for it. As to the condition of the
roads around White Earth, it must
be admitted that the weather has
been very bad for dragging this
spring. You also state that the
roads have been dragged but once
or twice since the passing of WIN
ter. know they have been drag
ged at least four times, as I signed
the orders paying for the work. :.
Respectfully,
(Signed) M. LaChsppelle.

God In Nature.

More than ever we need to appre-
ciate the works Of God as shown in
the material world. A blue sky, flick
ering shadows on the grass, the grace
in the flight Of a bird-these things
should give us the sense that God Is
still in the world. Let us listen to the
voices of the brook. Let US watch the
waves Of the lake. We may or may
not know what Is on the farther, I'M

around us If we have eyes to see and

office, the records of which show ap-
proximately 1000 patents issued for

During 1920 there were 624 applica-

there were 1928: in 1922 the number
was 1892, and last year 936. For this
year the estimate has been placed at
1900.
While the. bulk of the applications
for patents come from the younger
class of workers, experfmenters,

cal students, the records indicate that
those who are making the greatest
theoretical advance are the mature
