The band boys feel that Vieson will be well pleased - with. the situation here and are confident that he will come. Every member of the band is enthusiastic over the proposition. of securing a new director and ex- pect that the organization will make wonderful progress during the next few :months. Several weeks ago the Pioneer an- nounced that the band would prob- ably accept an invitation to play at the state fair next fall and accord- ing to Clyde Petrie, manager, a con- tract has been signed which provides that Bemidji shall have “25 first- class musicians” at the fair grounds on the opening day of the great ex- hibition to furnish music during the entire six days, from September 6 to 11, inclusive. The band will receive $750 for its services. The Bemidji band was . selected from a large number of other or- ganizations of the state and affords an opportunity for some valuable ad- vertising for this city. ‘Hire your farm laborers now, is the advice given today to Northwest farmers by managers of both state and federal employment agenciea.
