TURTLE RIVER SUMMER RESORT. I have just had surveyed and platted the finest summer resort in Northern Minnesota, on one of the finest lakes, the most beautiful scenery, the] best fishing and hunt- ing of any place in the state. The name of the resorf is Point Comfort, and it is just what the name in- dicates, a point extending'into the lake, and a regular park, all cleared and ready to. build upon, nice grass sod and hard wood timber. It must be seen to be appreciated. There is a thirty foot driveway along the lake shore, a lawn tennis court 50x100 for the public, and access- able from all the lots by a 10 foot alley. The ~lots are 50x150 and over, the price is $100.00, either cash or part cash and balance to isuit purchaser. I have built two cottages 12x20 with an 8-foot porch, "all screened. | These cottages will be furnished with such things as are generally used for a summer outing. A good rowboat with each cottage. T will rent these including one rowboat with each building, for $5.00 per week. No building rented for less than one week or one week’s price. This is a good chance for anyone not wishing to buy a lot and build, to get a few week’s outing at a low cost, and on the shores of a lake that has not been fished to death. I expect to sell every one of these lots in thirty days, so you better not wait too long if you want to get in on this snap, Yours truly, A. O. Johnson, | : Turtle River, Minn, evening, after G. A.

Booklet out Soon, Inquires are being received. A large attendanct is expected. This indicates progress and better schools. The largest State Teachers’ Train- ing school ever heldiin Bemidji will begin June 2)th and close July 30th. This is one of a few schools in the state being favored with a term of six weeks. Three counties, Bel- trami, Hubbard and Koochiching, will join in holding this school. The past two years Beltrami and Koochiching counties have united in holding a summer school and the work thus carried on has been of such a commendable character that a third county has'been added this year,—a move favored by the Department _of Public Instruction. Bemidji Summer Schools rank among the best 0 the state in the character of work done. Instructors have invariably commented upon the good work- done by the teachers. They are spoken: of as responsive, capable of doing work and suscept- ible to better methods. The coming term will be noexception. In fact the coming school will furnish greater advantages..than any pre- ceeding one. A larger summer-school enables the teachers to have a larger number of skilful instructors to aid them in their work.’ With three counties. represented there will be a marked tendency to unify the work over a larger selection of country thus giving wider ‘acquaintance with the work of a larger number ot schools. A larger school is also more apt to be favored Mlth a greater num- ber of speclnl features provided bythe Department of Public Instruction. In this respect this < school this year is particularly fortunate. In a letter’ State Superintendent C. G. Schulz regrets he will not be able to visit the school this year and has recommended C. R. Frazier, Ass’t Supt. Public Insruction, who will be here July 8th to- visit the school and address the meeting of school officers at that time. Miss May Decker, Minneapolis, who will be remembered by her excellent work here last year during the last week of the school is to come again for three days. A special instructor in sewing will be- provided for one week. A splendid . opportunity will thus be afforded the teachers to receive special instruction in this important phase of industrial education. The subject of agriculture will receive special attention. There will be other just as interesting features but arrangemenfs have not as yet been completed. Aside from these inviting special- ties as mentioned the school will have a regular faculty of five in- structors as many as given any other training school except the ome at the State University. - Of these Supt. A. P, Ritchie Bemidji, was appointed conductor, Dr. J. P. Uhler, Gystavus Adolphus College, St. Peter, Supt. C, W. VanCleve, Barnsville, Eva W. Brady, Fergus Falls and L. Louise Spencer, Coleraine are the instruc. tors. Dr, Uhleris' a leading sum- mer school man of the state. In general this year’s faculty is the lar- gest and without exception the strongest ever sent to Bemidji. They have been appointed because of special aptitude or fitness for the work assigned and thus it is believed a higher grade of work than hereto- | tore done will result. It was only through the assur- ance of a large attendance that such a faculty could be obtained. The purpose is fully apparent. More home teachers are needed to fill the schools. More first grade ‘teachers must be had-to supply the demand for such. schools have applled for the special| state aid ‘as last year and before long at least half the schools will be on the list for special state aid. This will require -a large number of teachers thoxouxhly qualified to supply. theu lcllooh and it should This year twice as many)| . BEMIDJI. MINNESOTA, FRIDAY EVENING.

The old adage: “If you do ll: :L 'gzg not at first succeed try, try again” is T8 13 852 true. The work 1n the school in the .16 17 485 first grade subjects especially is .13 15 .464 planned so as to give double time to 1122 ;? 387 these studies. Under such favorable arrange ment any one who has the second grade subjects and who will work diligently during the six weeks should have no trouble in passing any of the subjects thus studied. If but a part of the credits are obtained at a time it will not be long till all the requirements are met. The ambition to try is helpful and deserv- ing of praise and must lead to suc- cess. No more valuable opportunity for improvement is afforded the teacher than in a well organized summer training school. Regard- less of whatever qualifications a teacher may possess the training received by a careful review of sub- ject matter together with methods of presentation and association for a few_weeks with skillful instructors and working fellow teachers can resalt in none other than a renewed interest in those subjects and an awakened enthusiasm for an in- creased devotion to school work. By regularly attending a summer school is the only way of getting and keeping to the front.. Each teacher or person interested should consider the benefits to be derived and if she believes in self-improve- ment, thorough preparation for do- ing more efficient work and inter- est in her own personal advance- ment, the bountiful provisions made by -the state will not be neglected. The announcement of the Train. in school will be ready soon. A copy may be obtained. by writing the county superintendent, Be- midjiJ Minn.

TO INCLUDE LAKE BEMIDJI Immense “Traffic ‘to' Local Summer Resorts.—President Brooks and Mayor Parker Talk. . Is the Great Northern railway following a wise business policy in neglecting to run on to Bemidji the Saturday afternoon special train from Grand Forks to Mentor? Be- midji people think not. . L. L. LaRue of St. Paul, traveling passenger agent for the Great North- ern, was in the city yesterday and while here stated that the Great Northern has decided to establish a special weekly train which will run from Grand Forks to Mentor in or- der to accommodate the Grand Forks people who have summer cottages at Maple Lake. The train,” which is to be established June 18, will leave Grand Forks at 3:30 Saturday afternoors and run to Mentor, a dis- tance of 55 miles. According to the plans of the company the train will then “deadhead” back to Grand Forks, leaving the people to be picked Monday mornings by the Duluth-Grand Forks train. More Graud Forks people spend their summers at Lake Bemidji than there are residents of that city who have summer homes at Mentor, according to the statgment last evening of W. L. Brooks, president of the Bemidji Commercial club, “There are 16 Grand Forks families at Grand Forks Bay on Lake Bemidji by actual count this even- ing,” said Mr. Brooks. “There are 25 families at Lakeside and Lavinia and 16 more at the Grand Forks colony on Bass Lake. “These four summer resorts are all occupied by people from Grand Forks, Devil’s Lake, Minto, Mal- lory, and Arvilla, N. D. These families, 57 in number, contain from four to six people in each household.

Sunday afternoon matinees at the fair grounds have been promised by the local trainers, commencing the latter part of June. A fine lot of young race horses were brought from Grand Rapids to Bemidji yesterday by Henry Hughes, a Grand Rapids merchant, to be trained on the local track for the next several weeks. William Mc- Graw, trainer, accompanied the five horses, one of which, “Better|] Promise,” a green pacer 2:18 %, as its name indicates, shows promise of making a mark in the racing game.
