CARSON. E. H. DENU, HAROLD J. DANE, Editor. Think It Over. A Bemidji business man said yes- terday that although in many cases he could get better service for his money if he sent to the large cities, he never sent an order out of Be- midji that could be filled here. This man believes that it is better for himself as well as for the other fel- low to accept slightly inferior service and have the money stay here than to send it away and reap merely a temporary advantage. “My business in certain lines does ‘mot amount to much, “he said, “but that little stays here. It is the ‘Littles’ that count and go to make ‘prosperity. I want to see my neigh- ‘bors prosperous. It is to my advant- age also for then they will be able to assume some of the tax burden that I have to carry. It seems to me if every Bemidji business was cdnduct‘ -ed with the idea of keeping at home every dollar possible and making it work for a bigger and better Be-| midji, we would a]] see a noticeabl@l increase in husiness." over. 1 T A College Education, In the fall and in the spring many people are the real value of a college education.
