Charles Scheers, special immigra- tion commissioner for Hubbard coun- ty, has returned from DeKalb county Illinois where he has been the past two weeks in the interest of Minne- sota. Mr. Scheers was in Bemidji yesterday, returning to his home at Akeley this morning, and while here he was very enthusiastic over the en- couragement he encountered nwhile in Illinois. He visited in the county nwhere he spent his boyhood and be- sides seeing personally several hun- dred farmers who are considering lo- cating in northern Minnesota, secur- ed a list of more than thirteen hun- dred desirous of learning of the ad- vantages of this section. That the banks of Bemidji are in_ terested in the purpose of the Busi- ness Men’s association was -demon- strated by W. L. Brooks, cashier of the Northern National Bank, at the banquet and smoker Thursday even- ing. Mr. Brooks made it clear that the Northern National, and he felt the others were of the same attitude, was wjlllng ‘to aid in the movement “Pay the Merchant First,” and that whatever assistance could be given reliable purchasers by the banks would be forthcoming upon request. He made it plain that the banks of Bemidji are here for the purpose of aiding progress, and that they were ready and willing to be of assistance. His motto was, a promigsory note is better ithan an unpaid grocery bill. GITY PLANNING ASPRATIONS Greate Public Ideals of Givic Order. ENCOURAGE GO-OPERATION. Results In Town Improvement Can Be Accomplished Only by Community Effort—Nothing Should Be Neglected Which Affects the Life of the People. By EDWARD H. BENNETT. The object of a city plan is: To stimulate the people as a whole to a realization of the advantages of civic betterment. To create in the public mind ideals HAD CATARRH FIVE YEARS. Mr. John- son of St. Elmo, INi- nois, was troubled five years with catarrh. The catarrh was so severe in his case that his life seemed threatened. As he ex- § presses it himself, he had ‘“one foot in the he tried to get relief. Many prac- titioners \ : were con- sulted and a MR. S. S. JOHNSON catarrh St. Elmo, Illinois. Speclalist in St. Louis was tried. He got so weak and thoroughly run down that he de- clares he could not walk more than & hundred yards without resting. Few people understand that catarrh is a constant drain on the system. The discharge of mucus which is going on in such cases is largely com- posed of blood serum, and is a great ‘waste. Sooner or later it will weaken the strongest man. According to reports received from Mr. Johnson, he was in a desperate condition, but he found relief from his trouble. We will let him say how he found it. His own words say: “My friends told me to take Pe- runa, and I did so. I now feel that Peruna has saved my life. It is the best medicine on earth, and I would not be without it.” This_seems almost too good to be true. No doubt there are some read- ers that will think so. The above statements, however, can be verified by writing Mr. Johnson. Every home should be provided with the last edition of “The Ilis of Life,” sent free by the Peruna Co., Colume bus, Ohlo, of civic order and convenience. To encourage co-operation among va- rious civic bodies and groups of indi- viduals to achieve results which can be accomplished only by community ef- fort. The plan itself should embody: The study and the record of the main considerations upon which the well be- ing of the community is dependent. Nothing should be neglected which af- fects the life of the people of any class or age, whether at work or at play, and the subject should be presented-in such a form as to make the most direct and convincing appeal to those for whom the work is undertaken. The interdependence of all the ele- ments which go to make up a city must be realized. The physical as- pects of the city should be the embodi- ment of the ideas of the community, and conversely that city plan will be best which best expresses the ideas and aspirations of the people and which provides for the very best con- ditions of living for every class in the community. The most Important consideration of the city plan and one to which every- thing practically leads in the end is the street system. To the streets relate all circulation but that of the railroads, The street system includes: Vehicular traffic. Pedestrian traffic. Traction—Surface, subway and over- head. Drainage and conduits of gas, elec- tricity, telephone, telegraph, ete. And on the disposition, width and treatment of the streets depends the livable character of the city—its air, ON THE STREETS DEPENDS THE LIVABLE CHARACTER OF THE CITY. light and even temperature. Seen in the large, the streets are the corridors of the districts they penetrate. The mere fact of opening up the many im- passes throughout the city and con- necting them with wide streets and parkways removes the stagnation from them, letting in the light and air, and aids the movement of its life. With this is coupled a consideration of the development of the street congestion ‘which is encountered. . Coupled with the street problews is the problem of the river—its frontages and bridges. What can be more de- moralizing than the influence of the disorderly conditions of the Chicago river? And yet this sight affects 30 to 40 per cent of the population daily. These same people are affected at the rush hour by the confusion and con- gestion in the struggle to reach the ele- vated stations, the street cars and the railroad stations. At the end of a day of toil what but demoralizing can be the influence of these conditions? Many similar examples of lack of order may be cited. These are typical and are applicable not only to the main center, but in a less degree also to the subcenters and are basic condi- tions underlying the study in eity planning in its constructive sense. The limits of occupancy of territory by the railroads for purely railroad purposes are suggested. The advantages resulting from this study is obvious, since to a large ex- tent the location of the railroads in and surrounding a city determines the location of the zone of industry. Study of the growth of cities has shown that where many railroads radiate from the city in different directions the triangular shaped areas lying be- tween them for a considerable dis- tance out from the center of the city are reduced to a low level of utility, even though they may have compara- tively high value in the real estate market. This leads to the use of this market in an intensive and wretched ‘manner, and it is in these pockets we find the worst tenements and slums. ® REDUCE CONGESTION. There are commercial and in- dustrial interests which, blinded by the privileges of the present, fail to see the advantages of the golden era of the future. These interests, therefore, while ylelding to the growing demand for city planning, adhere to the antiquated ideals and methods which have been so well ex- pressed in Paris and Berlin and Wwhich are based wholly on the principle of workaday com- mercialism and industrial prof- its rather than upon the-prin- ciples of human efficiency and social progress. ‘‘Nickel” poli- cies in transit development, such as we frequently encounter among our public corporations, boulevard and parkway devel- opments, the main function of which is the increase in real estate values that benefit the few, the construction of costly public buildings to impress the strangers and benefit the graft- ing contractors, do not consti- tute city planning. TUnless we realize the impor- tance of reducing congestion, dis- tributing adequately and equita- bly the advantages of parks, playgrounds, social and educa- tional centers, give easy and cheap access to the opportuni- ties for employment to the peo- ple as a whole, this country will be developing slums and their products — poverty, immorality, crimes, disease and death.—Dr. Carol Aronovici.
