It1s a pleasant pastime under certain conditions, ! but under others it is discourag- ing. Dull times have been the general complaint in Bemidji for some time past. With almost every business house in the city doing a fair volume of business there is a disposition in some quarters to look back to the time when the palmy days of the vil- lage made it the talk of the North- west. If it has been dull in Be- midji during the present winter the ciny'is not alone in this con- dition. The comes from every town iu the state. A number of conditions combine to make it so, but it does not neccessarily follow that the same complaint present slack times are always going to continue.
