ART
THEME OF
1888 EXHIBIT
Work of Ely Classes and Group
of Young America Paints
To Be Exhibited.

1.-THE Art of the American Indian"
will be the theme followed in this
years art exhibition which will be held
in the gymnasium of the Memorial high
school on Thursday and Friday, May
26 and 81.
Progressive educators in all parts of
the country are asking the public to
lend their assistance in behalf of school
art education. The educators realize
that the practical value Of a knowledge
Of art cannot be measured. No matter
what the later occupation of the boy
or girl whether salesman, physician,
housewife, lawyer, mechanic, store
keeper, office worker, banker or who
ever, a knowledge of art principles is
Invaluable. 1t may possibly lead into
profitable lines for some, and for every
one sharpens ones enjoyment of life
and greatly widens ones range of
thinking and accomplishment
Together with the exhibits of work
done by students of the Ely public
schools, section of the Young America
Paints exhibition, recently held in
Rockefeller Center, New York City, will
be displayed through arrangements
made by Miss Frances L. Stokes, art
supervisor in the public schools.
Included in the exhibition, which is
sponsored by Conrad Haugen, principal
of the Memorial high school, will be
displays of work done by members of
the industrial classes under the direc-
ton of Thomas Murn, Stephen Smrekar
and Fred Handberg; by members of the
art classes, under the direction of Miss
Stokes, and by members of the home
economics classes, under the direction
Of Miss Margaret Holmberg and Miss
Marian Kraker.
Among the outstanding things which
may be seen are the large decorative
map showing activities and the location
Of Indians, the Katchina Doll, brightly
decorated totem poles, and the cartoons
by Albin zaverl, who was an exhibitor
in the recent Young America Paints ex-
hibition and received wide acclaim fol-
his work.
Pictures in the visiting exhibit in
clude two new mediums, finger-paint
and frescol, which are especially
adapted to the use of art students and
beginning artists. Frescol is dry
compact color applied with a special
felt tipped brush without the use OF
water, oil or any other liquids. Finger
paint is a soft jefly-like substance
which is applied directly with the open
hands without the use of brushes.
The exhibit will be open to the entire
school system on both days from a. m
until p. m. and on Thursday evening
from Z p. m. until 10 p. m.

Members of Family
Haze Same Hobbies.

Robbinsdale-It's not often that you
find an entire family interested in one
particular hobby. Robbinsdale, how
ever, has such a family and because
Mr.. and Mrs. w. D. Beehler and their
two sons, Bob and Bill, have more
than a passing interest in cupboard
boats, this village has received nation
wide publicity. 1t all started back in
the days when Mr.. Beehler was still
a young man and quite bit Of a racer
himself. These days Mr.. Beehler does
not do any racing, but he IS the COM
modore for the Minnesota, North and
South Dakota and part of Wisconsin
division of the National Cupboard As
ISOLATION. He also serves as the Of
fetal starter for the American Power
Boat association. Mrs. Beehler is the
treasurer of the organization and is as
much of an authority on boats as her
husband. Their two sons were Vir-
tually born into it and both say, THE
first thing we can remember is going to
cupboard races" Bill is the youngest
professional driver in the United States
with his brother as assistant.

the best the animal could do was to
push the farmer forward so that he
rolled ahead whenever the horns slipped
under him. The bull was intensely
determined to hoist his victim into the
air, hurl him back and crush him. An
idea seen in the movies flashed into
Mr.. Goetz's mind. He gripped the two
horns that were pushing under him,
and with all the strength he could
command he twisted the head and
neck, as he himself rose with his foot
braced against the post of a nearby
fence. Slowly, steadily, he was bending
the head and neck of his powerful foe
and the bull went over. Instantly Mr..
Goetz leaped to safety.

 AsSaiIed for
 His Policies
Former Gov. Landon Makes Reply to Roosevelt's
 Recent Preside Chat

COUNCIL BLUFFS. la, July T. Former Gov. Alfred Landon, and former Presidential candidate on the Republican ticket, has made a reply to President Roosevelt's recent fireside address. He charged that the present depression has been brought on by the Administrations methods and policies.
 Depression is purely political be- cause President Roosevelt has not been successful in restoring employ ment and he also adopted strategy and nagging of bushes" said Lan- don.
 Landon characterized the Presi- dents speech as the New Deal yer sion of why we have twelve million unemployed" and said: President Roosevelt is an adept at using beau- tiful words that appeal to the emo- tions for the purpose of creating a smoke screen to hide his blun- ders,''
 Landon assailed the financial reckleSsneSs but declared that the Republican voters would back Roo- sevelt if he practiced what he preached.

BOYS, PLANTED
 IN FIRE TRAP,
 BURNED, DEATH
Firemen's Brigade, Demon strating Efficiency, Falls
 Down Frghtfully

LISBON, Portugal, July 7.-Ten boys were killed, two in the flames, when a firemen's brigade, during an exhibition fire drill, failed to rescue them from blazing gaso- line soaked four story building.
 Two of the boys died in the flames and eight made fatal leaps from windows. Ten other boys were seriously injured before they es- capped the flames.
 The firemen planted the boys, aged from 10 to 20 years, in the various rooms of the building, then set it afire attempting a demon stration of the efficiency of the brigade. The firemen awaited pre- arranged alarm signals at head quarters but the flames roared through the structure and trapped the panic-stricken boys as the fire spread quicker than intended.
 Many were injured when a crowd of spectators stampeded, hindering the frenzied firemen striving to reach the victims, some of whom were their own sons.

Salmon Outlook
 Promising Says
 Fisheries Chief
Commissioner Bell Arrives Here Aboard Brant with
 Official Party

The outlook for the fishing sea- son is comparatively bright and with the anticipated increase in the price of salmon, 1888 should be a good year in the opinion of Com missioner of Fisheries Frank T.. Bell. who arrived here this morn ing aboard the bureau flagshlp Brant from Wrangell.
 In the Brant party with the Commissioner were Dr. Erne S t Gruening, Director of the Division of Territories and Island Posses sions; Congressman Willard Cald- well of Florida and Miss Caldwell, the Congressman's sister; young Peter Gruening, son of the director, and State Senator John B. McColl of California, who is chairman of the California Senate Committee on Fish and Game.
 Contacts made in Southeast AL aska indicate fairly good run of salmon, the Commissioner said, and although there is little jurisdic- tional labor trouble at Ketchikan there is indication that it will be settled in time for operations to go ahead as usual.
 The first runs in Bristol Bay were light, reported, but word from Assistant Alaska Agent Fred Lucas to the Commissioner this morning reported the fish coming good" in the Naknek, Nushagak and Kvichak rivers the last two or three days Bristol Bay, MT. Bell pointed out | is often slow in starting.
 "The labor situation is not as bad as it was few weeks ago." the Commissioner said, "and I believe 1 it will adjust itself. On the whole with better prices promised the outlook in the salmon industry, would say, is good. There's been some trouble on the Japanese sit uation in Bristol Bay as you know but reports are now that the Jap anese ships have left the area and that probably will solve that prob lem for this season"
 The Brant is sailing this evening for the Westward, going as far as Bristol Bay. All the party will leave here and some of the officials plan to fly in from Cordova to Anchor age and thence to Bristol Bay probably meeting the Brant on her arrival there.
 Senator McColl will stay with the vessel on her round trip, expecting to be back in Seattle by July 25 as will the Commissioner and Con- gressman Caldwell.

CONGRESSMAN IS IMPRESSED
 WITH ALASKA
Floridan Getting Eyes Op- ened' In Connection
 with Vast Northland

Congressman Willard Caldwell Of Florida is just about as far away from Florida as he can get and stay in the United States, and he likes it, he said today upon his ar rival aboard the Brant from the States. Not even Florida has any nicer sunshine, the Congressman remarked. and he doesn't believe half the stories he hears about rain in Alaska.
 MT. Caldwell is a member of the House Appropriations Committee which Delegate Anthony J. Dimond facetiously contends is the hardest boiled" committee in the world, and which Congressman Caldwell re- piled is exactly why he is in AL aska-"to check up on all these things Tony Dimond wants"
 So far the Floridan is nightly impressed with the Territory.
 "It has everything and more than Tony Dimond says, which is lot" he commented. Tt is real pleasure to come up and see it first hand. I'm having my eyes opened about Alaska and what it's needs are"
 The Congressman is accompanied by his sister, Miss Jean Caldwell.

SHANGHAI, July T. Terrorist attacks against the Japanese and Chinese puppet officials has been resumed in this Japanase domin- ated metropolis.

 Two Japanese and two Chinese are dead.
 A British Colonial soldier was injured in furries of machine gun fire in the outlying districts.
 Reports of sporadic shooting in the industrial center of Pootung, across the Whangppo River from Shanghai proper, may mean new series of attacks by Chinese guer- fila units.
 The Chinese and Japanese armies are now in deadlock along the Yangtze River near Hankow and Kiaukiang, the latter 150 miles from Hankow, 450 miles from Shanghai.

Poor Farmer--Drougl,t Vas
 Bad, But Big Crop's A,oful
By PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, July Tn 1886, drought. The wheat crop went to pot, falling so low that some had to be imported. It was natures ran dom blow at crop control, said many farmers, half believing themselves.
 Buckety buckety all over the wheat belt arose opposition to fur ther crop control and the lid was off in 1857. A reasonably good crop was harvested, and in spite of a carryoyer of 200,0OO000 bush- els, prices remained above the dollar wheat" level through the fall and early winter of 1937-38.
 AS talk developed of new crop control machinery, farm delega- tions poured into Washington. No wheat quotas for 1888, they urged. Congress and the Department of Agriculture consented, although some able farmers and most spe- cialists in the Department of Ag- riculture smelled trouble.
 No restrictions were imposed on paintings for the 1888 harvest. AS result, 79,000,000 acres were seeded down to wheat, enough for a "cala- mity crop" of billion bushels, with good growing weather. In mid-win- ter, prices began to sag. By the time Congress convened last January some farmers were jittery. By Feb ruary, when the farm bill passed, wheat had sealed off to 80 cents a bushel It was already too late to control the 1888 winter wheat, plant ed the previous fall. All Congress could do was to promise continued benefit payments to induce farm CTS to accept some control of the 1899 crop.
