The evangelistic meetings being held in the tabernacle near the school house grounds are of more far reaching importance than many of our citizens realize. They emphasize the fact of a better Bemidji. There is some advertising tha_.t our city gets that is not and never has been any benefit to us. It is a class of adver- tising that bids for an undesirable class of people who are a blot on the c¢ity in any way we may consider them. These meetings are something the city can afford to have. People in other places who stand for law en- forcement and the better things in schools, churches and a high grade of morals will read of these meetings and will know that there are people here who are back of all the things that make for good homes and a thriving prosperous city. ° We are proud that our city has enough of the church element, ot only to want, but to put the desire for such a campaign into form. The tabernacle with a seating capac!ty[ for one thousand people has bgen built almost entirely by donated la- bor and the material has been furli—u ished by the lumber companies and the hardware stores at very reason- able prices. f The evangelistic campaign is un- der the auspices of the Presbyteri_an, Baptist and Methodist churches which have formed a umnion for such a work. Bemidji is very furtuna@e'in securing ‘an evangelistic party. of such markd ability. W. S.

Bemxd,]x Is Logical Location For New Normal School According to the provisions of an act passed by the late legislature Northern Minnesota is to have a Normal school, the location for which is to be chosen by a commission :ap- pointed by. Governor Eberhart. = It appears that the chief contes- tants for the school are Bemidji and Thief River Falls and it may be that Cass Lake will make a st’rqng bid for it. However, if sectional feeling and prejudice is laid aside, it is hard to conceive of a more favorable loca- tion than Bemidji. In fact if all things are taken into consideration by the commission appointed for this purpose, there is but one place ths;t they can decide upon and that place is—Bemidji. - Connected by railroads with all the territory in Northern Minnesota, which now is practically out of reach of any state Normal, it would be the most central and con- venient place for the patrons de- pendent on the school. As for health- ful climate, ideal building sltg§ and surroundings, Bemidji cannot be equalled.—Blackduck American. Of all the sites offered for the new Norml aschool, it sems to us that the most satisfactory, the best all the way_ around would be that in ‘Bem- idji. That town is certainly the place for it. " Of that there is no question. —Grand Rapids Independent.
