Du- mas of Bemidji is petitioning for a pardon” says the Redwing Eagle. Bemidji may not demand a retraction, but the editor of that paper owes an explanation to his subscribers and an apology to Cass Lake. Bemidji be- leives in giving credit where credit is due. Clearbrook Has Proper Spirit Albert Anderson, publisher of the Clearbrook Journal and one of the best “Boosters” in Northern Minne- sota comes to the front with hearty congradulations from his little city, a competitor for the Normal school. “Let us all join hands and make it one of the best in the state” says Al- bert and it is just this spirit that has built up this wide-awake, boom- ing little city of Clearbrook and has made the Clearbrook Journal on of the liveliest papers in Northern Min- nesota. Here’s the article published in the paper this Cweek. Normal School For Bemidji On Tuesday the State.Commission ‘met and awarded Bemidji the Sixth Normal School for Minnesota. The only thing-to be regretted ‘in the de- cision is the fact that Minnesota’s mainstay—It’s Agricultural Inter- ests—were intirely ignored, and the “Cities” once more land the prize which at this particular time, be- cause of conditions, should have been given to the rural section of the state. We heartily congratulate Bemidji and her boosters upon the location of the Normal in her midst, and hope that Northern Minnesota will join hands and make this one the best in the state.” Little Falls Knows The decision of the commisipn ap- pointed for the purpose in selecting Bemidji for the location of the sixth normal added school site lends strength to the already well-re- congnized fact that hustling Bemidji after. Among the cities contesting for the loc: usually gets what she goes fon were Cass Lake, Clearbrook Erskine, Park Rapirs and Thief- River Falls. Bemidji wen over her closet contestant (Thief River Falls) by five votes. Among the points in favor of Bemidji are that it is cen- trally located in the region to be served; that'it has excellent railroad facilities; that if offers a highly fa-| vorable site for the purpose. The sel- ection is conditional, one condition imposed being that the city give the state a deed to the site.—Little Falls Transcript. Bemidji The Sixth Normal School City The committee provided for by the legislature to sélect a site in North- ern Minnesota for the sixth normal school has picked Bemidji, and Be- midji is celebrating. . Well it may. It was a hot contest— long drawn, too, and with quite an interesting history back of it—and there were a number of lively comn- testants like Park Rapids, Cass Lake, Thief River Falls,” Clearbrook and Erskine. It is a pretty big victory for Bemiji, and it has a right to re- Joice. . 2 And The Hearld tak&s pleasure in congratulating that pretty and pros- perous and enterprising community, and in approving the committee’s se- lection. It is sorry for the' towns that 'are disappointed, but of course there couldn’t be a normal school for each of them. It is worth while taking note too, that the city which has been selected as a suitable site for a state normal school not so many years-ago was a frontier lumber town notorious for its wi'dness. That it is today most em- phatically fited to contain such an institution is striking testimony to the change that has come with the passing of the old-time carousing lumber towns, not one of which is left in Minnesota today.—Duluth Herald t Declares Bill in Storthing Puts Price on Son's Head. Coming Out Into vthe Open It was not so many years ago that advertising was considered unethical from a business stand- point. Many of the finest old houses held aloof, saying that they didn’t have to advertise. Even today there are some business and pro- fessional men so bound by custom | and tradition that they have not ‘yet availed themselves of the ad- vantages of advertising. By so much as these customs still hold, by just so much is the public deprived of Eknowing all about those professions and busi- nesses. The most successful way and the only honest way to‘deal with the public is to “play the game out in the open.” L If there are true and interesting reasons why the public should buy something from So & So, then So & So should be glad of a chance to say so over and over again through the medium of reliable newspapers.

On being ushered into that functionary’s presence he begged for the favor of an interview with a prisoner who was to suffer the extreme penalty of the law in the course of the morhing. 5 * “No, my man,” eaid the governor, on being appealed to, “you cannot see the prisoner. He is to be executed in half i an hour’s time, and it is not allowed for visitors to see a prisoner on the | day of execution. But what might be your bustess with him?” “Shure, sorr,” answered Pat, “it’s his birthday, and I was afther wishing him many happy returns av the day.” His Little Bill.

Birds, in proportion to their. weight, | wrobably eat more than any gther liv- ing thing. It is a mystery to naturals ists how the ring-dove flies after its accustomed meal. One dove was ' found with 600 peas in its crop; an- other, in captivity, was known to eat 180 beechnuts at a time; and a third devoured 60 acorns. The robin often eats 2% times its weight in twenty- four hours, while a barnyard hen with chicks has been observed to resume eating 475 times in the course of a day. The diet of a certain species of hawk is composed of abqut 2,000 mice in the course of ‘a month, besides oth- er food. In the mouth of a young heron .were found three trout, each weighing three-quarters of. & pound. Another was- found with’seven gmall trout in its mouth, a mouse, and a thrush, evidently on its way to_its' nest.
