Develope Desirable Properties Along The Lake Shore. At last evening’s meeting of the school board a communication was received from 'the" -state labor bureau in regard to ‘the (which means much to every resi- dent of this place) assures to Be: midji a summer resort that will be a source of pride to all. While the details of this undertaking are not complete,enough isknown to warrant the assertion that nothing will be left undone that will further the intention of the promoter, Mr. Carter, to place Bemidji where she properly be- longs, the leader of all cities making pretentions to a first . |class place for the summer tour- ist or the man of family. Relative * to the further de- velopmemt of Bemidji, ‘Mr. Car: ter says: ‘I have every confi- courtesy that they deserved. I believe that too much cannot be done along the line of satisfaction guaranteed to yisitors among us, and I propose that our enterprise now being organized shall leave nothing undone that will tend to send our visitors away with en- thusiastic encomiums as to our entertaining ability.” It is known that Mr. Carter is doing yoeman service toward in- ducing manufacturing enter- prises tolocate here. His work in establishing the ax handle factory has been crowned with much success, but owing: to his large real estate business; he has not been able to be personally identified with the active man- agement of this enterprise. The improvements recently made and those in contemplation will give Bemidji a factory second to none of its kind in the state, as it is. assured that an entire new plant, on a new site, will be put in next spring. Much credit is due Mr. Carter for the loyalty he displays to all Bemidji business interests and also for his unswerving integrity of character and his persever- ance. A. A.

W.H. Place, one of the ‘most - . prominent attorneys in the twin o cities, arrived in Bemidji last a few days here looking over the city. Mr. Place expects to locate - in this city in the near future, if suitable office rooms can be ob- tained, and if his present inspec- tion of the city proves satisfac- tory he will make Bemidji his * future home. Mr. Place has b practiséd law in ‘Minneapolis fér - | many years past and is well known to the legal fraternity of Minnesota. ! Ellis Is Janitor. At last night’s meeting of the Board of Education J. J. Ellis was appointed ‘janitor of the’ | Third Ward school building ata’ J salary of $25 per month. The usual grist of bills was allowed.: . ) employment of children between. the ages of 14 and 18 and their absence from school. According to the law children between these ages may absent themselves from school for the purpose of working only when they secure an affidavit from their parents that their help is needed to sup- port the family and when a certi- ficate is. secured from the city superintendent of schools ap- proving such absence. - The law will be strictly enforced by the local board of education. l' v 1 perty that has already been ac- quired and which is located on the north shore of Lake Bemidji, about a quarter of a mile west of Rocky point. = It is the intention of the gentlemen forming the as- sociation to-greatly improye the property, which consists of over 100 acres of fine land, Thisland was selected only after a careful investigation by the partiesinter- ested, the location and environ- ments being such as to highty ifecommend it as an ideal ground on which to establish a first-class summer resort. Theland is on that portion of' the lake front where all classes of large and small boats can make shore very easily, and as the public high- way to town is but a few feet from the border of the property, it is easily accessible by either land or water. The gentlemen forming the association are A. A, Carter, W. L. Brooks, J. P. Rid- dell, F. S. Arnold, W. N. Bowser, G. H. French, C. O. Moon, Judge L. G. Pendergast and R. H. Schumaker, and all are well known as being_thoroughly re- liable and conscientious citizens. A. A, Carter has been the prime mover in the enterprise. and his ability as a hustler and booster for Bemidji assures the success of the undertaking. He has been a resident of Bemidji during the past three years, and has always been prominently identified with everything that angured well for this community as a whole. Mr. Carter states that he and his as- sociates will at once survey the property, plat the same into de- sirable lots, and alsoimmediately clear a five acre tract, on a high elevation’ overlooking the - lake- for a public park, which will al- ways be open to'the use of every- one. Clearings will be made as rapidly as possible and every as- sistance will be given to those de- siring to purchase lots and erect cottages. It is believed tnat the contempjpted enterprise (which will give to Bemidji an ideal re- sort) will be very favorably ac- cepted by the public, and the || gentlemen back of it deserve the hearty support of every resident of Bemidji who has. the best in- terests of the community at)) heart. Although Mr. Carter is| of a modest and retiring disposi- | tion, he comes to the frontin this matter with his customary vigor, and the success of the venture B D D P A W A The Bazaar Special Sale!
