For having neglected to dis- play the national emblem on; Decoration day, the members of the school board and the teachers employed in the schools have been made the subjects fora BUENA VISTA SGENE OF FIGHT J. W. Speelman Seriously Injured in Fray That Oc- ‘curred Yesterday. Buena Vista was the scene’ of fight yesterday which ended in severe injuries being received by J. W. Speelman, said to have been inflicted by John Cum- mings. Dr. Marcum and Sherift Bailey were notified of the fray and left last night for Buena Vista, but Sheriff Bailey turned back before reaching his des- tination, owing to the extreme darkness and bad roads. Dr. Marcum kept on butas yet has not returned and the extent of Mr. Speeiman’s injuries are not known. roast tendered by R.H. Carr Post No. 74, G. A. R., at a meet- ing held Saturday evening. At the meeting resolutions were adopted censuring the members of the school board and all those who had anything to do with conducting the public school sys- tem in Bemidji for not having placed the flag at either half mast or full mast on the flag pole at the high school building on the day of the exercises held un- der the auspices of the local G. A. R, post. The members of the school board have been interviewed re- garding the matter and were forced to admit that they appar- ently failed to show the proper spirit in not displaying the star spangled banner at the high school flag pole. They give asan excuse, however, that the fiag pole was out of order, the rope used for hoisting the fiag having slipped off from a pulley at the top of the pole and fastened it- self so that it was impossible to raise the flag without climbing up the poleand fastening it with the hands. They attempt furth- er to justify themselves by say- ing that they tried on several oc- casions to employ the services of a man to make the necessary re- pairs to the pole but were unsue- cessful, none wishing to take the risk of a fall from th: top of the pole to the ground. They further state that the flag pole at the court house square was in the same condi- tion as the school house pole, and that the county flag was not dis- played for the same reason that the school flag failed to make its appearance. The flag pole located in the city park on Lake Boulevard was also destitute of any adornment further than the large dome at the top, and several members of the school board have expressed surprise that Recorder H. W, Bailey, who is also Commander of the local G. A. R. Post, should have time to father resolutions censuring the school board, and yet not have time to attend to his special duty of raising the flag on the village commons, and if Mr. Bailey has any good excuse to offer why the flag was not dis- played on the public square, they would be pleased to hear {rom him through the columns of the Beltrami County News. Took Change of Venue. Frank Silversack, the Minne- sota avenue saloonkeeper, was arraigned in Judge Pendergast’s court on a charge of assault in the third degree preferred against him by Edward Dunlop, whom, it is alleged, he assaulted last night. Silversack took a change ef venue and will appear in Judge Skinvik’s court tomor- row morning to plead. Pocket maps, Minnesota, Mon- tana and North Dakota at the Pioneer Office.

BIG BUILDING BOOM AWAITS THE ARRIVAL OF LUMBER. Terminus of the M. & I. Extension Now Has 300 People and is Growing Rapidly. Senator E. J. Swedback, one of the proprietors of the townsite of Big Falls, better known per- haps by the name of Ripple which is the name of the postoffice, “to- day wailed twenty eight con- tracts for lots in Big Falls to re- cent purchasers. Big Falls gives eyery indica- tions of becoming one of the most |important towns on the line of the Minnesota & International north of Bemidji. In fact the town is already a rival of Kooch- iching for the county seat of the new county to be created from the northern end of Itasca. Big Falls is the terminus of the pre- sent extension of the Minnesota & International. The Big Fork river at this pointis about 200 feet wide while the water falls just at the edge of town havea sheer tumble of 34 1 2 feet thus power. The country around about Big Fallsis well wooded with spruce and hard woods while the soilis a loam with clay sub- soil so that the district is one of the finest agricultural sections iz the state. The M. & I. has already grad- ed for extensive side tracks in Big Falls and it is probabie that the place will be the terminus of the road for some time to come, The demand for lots has been very active and a good deal of building has been done, the only thing preventing a big building boom being the fact that lamber is hard to get to supply the heavy demand. 'BAND MEETING SUCCESSFUL City Now Assured of First Class Musical Organiza- tion in Near Futnre. The meeting of the band men held last night at the city hall re- sulted in a preliminary organiza- tion of a band in Bemidji. The meeting was attended by some 14 musicians and all matters per- taining to providing a musical or- ganization for the city was thor- oughly discussed. A. Gilmour and H, E. Anderson yesterday af- ternoon circulated a petition among the business men of the city asking do~afion of one dollar per month from each. Messrs, Gilmour and Anderson reported that they had received the signa- tures of about 40 men who agreed to pay this amount monthly for the year commencing June 15, and that as yet they had visited only half of the business men. It was decided to postpone the per- manent organization of the band until F'riday evening, when an- other meeting will be held at 8 o’clock. S Card of Thanks.

Force of Instructors Consists of Three Promanent Minnesota * Educators. The Beltrami County Summer School will open July 5, in the High School Building in the city of Bemidj, and will remain ‘in- session four weeks. The following instructors will have charge of the work: Prof. C. W. G. Hyde of Minneapolis, conductor, Mrs. Catherine Stephans of Duluth and Mrs. E. K. Jaques of Robblnsdule assistants. We fully appreciate the nceds of many of our teachers along academic lines, and the course of study for'the summer school will be so aranged as to give special attention to these sub- ijects, ‘illuminating - their dark points and giving direction to future individual effort; but by far the greatest need of our teachers is professional train- ing, and, as the summer schools afford to many teachers in this county the only opportunity for professional training within their reach, much attention will be devoted, at the coming ses- sion, to subjects dealing with the professional side of teaching. It is hoped that all teachers, and persons intending to teach in this county, will be present at the opening of the session, and all schools holding summer ses- sion are expected toclose during the continuance of same. As stated above, the course ot study will be prepared especi- ally to meet the needs of the teachers of this county, and cer- schoo! will be given due consid- eration by me, when recom- mending or granting certificates to teachers. No student will be permitted take over three solid . studies. If too much be attempted, very httle will be accomplished. The work is intended to be intensive rather than extensive: In order to formulate a pro gram, it will be necessarty for me to know in advance what snbjects, or parts of subjects, the different teachers wish in- struction in. I would, therefore, ask, that prospective students write me in advance of their coming. Through the courtesy of the | Board of Education of the Be- midji schools, the text books of the above sclhiools will be loaned free to those attending the sum- mer school. Teachers desiring my assis- tance in securing entertainment, will call at my office on their ar- rival in the city, and persons baving such entertainment to offer, will please notify me stat- ing rates and accomodations. The state teachers’ examina- tions will be held at the close of summer school — August 3, 4 and 5. J.J. REGAN, = Cuunty Sup’tof Schools, D.ted at Bemidj |1, Minn, June 5. 1965. s Brother Is Locacod.
