Joseph Kennedy, of Grand Forks, has written the following letter to the editor. the school of education of the Uni- versity of North Dakota, a well read scholar Mr. Kennedy is dean of and a gentleman who has traveled extensively. The sugges- tions he makes thought and gleaned from many other cities. appear to be the fruit of experience Diamond Point is at present own- ed by A. A. White, one of the offi- cers of the townsite company. Mr. White is also the owner of the tract Although Bemidji has by its natural growth used as a fair grounds. made much money for the townsite people, they have made little return. Yet it is hardly possible that Mr. White will donate the Point for park About the only way the city can ever obtain the Point is to purposes. condemn it and this action should be taken before it is platted and sold for building lots. Dean Kennedy’s letter: To the Editor: “Bemidji is one of the most favor- ably located cities in Minnesota. It is a natural center from several points of view. It is a railroad cen- ter and hence a wholesale and dis- tributing center, it is a center of the great lumber industry; it is now, and could be made a still greater educa- tional center, and it is a center of scarcely surpassed beauty, located, as it is, on the most beautiful lake in the Mississippi chain. It could easily be made a summer resort for visitors and tourists that would be unsurpassed, if the city could realize its opportunity. “Outsiders and visitors are more likely to see such opportunities for the city than those who have grown accustomed to present conditions. Hence strangers wonder why the city does not secure at once the beautiful tract at Diamond Point for a city park, and beautify and supervise it. “This point of vantage and all the stretch between the city and what is known as Grand Forks Bay, show signs everywhere of vandalism and lack of supervision, parts are within the city limits. “The city of Grand Forks, North Dakota, has secured all the available tracts for park purposes adjacent to the city. It has four large parks and several small beauty spots. “During the past summer Bemidji erected on the lake front near Dia- mond Point two unsightly public bathhouses, and left them unsuper- vised; and an unsupervised bath house, especially one designated for women, is worse than none. If Dia- mond Point were a city park the care- taker could be given, as elsewhere, police authority, and could prevent vandalism of all kinds. “Many people come to Bemidji ev- ery summer for their health, finding relief from hay fever and other ail- ments. But noxious weeds of all kinds are spreading throughout the city and the probability is that hay- fever sufferers will have to go else- where. “If this letter seems critical, I wish to say that the criticism is motived from my love for Bemidji, and my interest in it, for I have been a sum- mer resident here for twelve years, and it seems like home to me. The attractiveness and beautification of Bemidji could well be the subject for serious consideration and discussion by the city council, the commercial club, and by the park committee and civic league, if such an organization exists; or at a civic meeting pub- licly attended. “The experience of most cities is that they neglect opportunities for a greater and more beautiful city till it is too late. I should like to see the city bethink herself at once for a greater and more beautiful Bemidji. “Sincerely, “JOSEPH KENNEDY.” THIS DATE IN HISTORY.
