They will not, however, be responsible for accidents, damage or 10ss.. Should any sickness or an accident-occur, quick attention can be given at thé regular Emer- gency hospital ‘maintained on . the ground. = It is expected to have a camp . of good, healthy, ambitious farm boys, who will hereafter be an honor and an asset to Minnesota agriculture, and their parents.

TAKES DANGEROUS TRIP Transient Rents Canoe and Heads For Outlet in High Wind. “Paddling a canoe in a strong wind is not as easy a task as one would judge,” said Joe_ Warner, a transient, in Bemidji yesterday. Joe ought to know as he speaks after an hour of good experience. He got into a canoe for the first time yesterday afternoon and headed for the middle of the lake. The wind was blowing unusually strong and Joe lost. all control over his light craft. ‘A O. Aubolee, proprietor of the Bemidji boat house had expected trouble and had been watching the canoe and its occupant through a field glass. When 'he saw that the young man was in danger of drowning he called upon two local young men to go out after him. A row boat was brought into play and it was but a few moments before Joe, much to his relief, climb- ed over into the boat and exchanged places with one of his rescuers. The ‘party got back to the boat house safe- 1y, but received a good drenching. - DOG CATCHERS ARE SCARCE Are you looking for work?

Goodman and Loitved have had charge of the work and kept a crew of men busy for three days_on the long stretch. This drive- way has been a big necessity for some time but was not-ordered built until a recent meeting of the com- missioners. Draymen and other driv- ers can now drive up to within a few feet of the door and are not compell- ed to walk a half block. Other im- provements are being made around the building including painting, ‘re- decorating and carpentry work. CLEANING UP LAKE SHORE Cleaning up the city park has commenced in earnest and is already beginning to show signs of improve- ment. The park behind the library has been raked up and the grass trimmed. The park which was laid out.last summer near the boat house has-been put in good shape and other improvements have been made. As soon as the floating dock has been completed for the “City of Bemidji” the old landing will be torn down and all the old lumber piled there will be removed. - The fire dock will be built there but will not-take up as much space and ‘will'be much neater in ap- pearance.
