THiS PAPER REPRESENTED FOR FOREIGN ADVERTISING BY THE . 4.00 GENERAL OFFICES NEW YORK AND CHICAGO ARANCHES (N ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIES Our Slogan: “Bemidji 25,000 Population in 1925” Welcome! Welcome to Bemidji. The City of Bemidji today joins in the cordial welcome of Northern Minnesota to the senators, represen- tatives and other state officials. This city is proud to be included in the itinerary of such worthy vis- itors and is anxious to plainly dem- onstrate its recognition of the dis- tinet honor thus conferred upon it. ‘We have always entertained the opinion that the proper way to in- sure a unanimity of effort through- out the state in the development of Northern Minnesota was to bring to the knowledge of every legislator and state official our actual needs and our real resources. Every legislator wants, above all else, to be just and fair. Of this we are confident. And it is also true that every public offi- cial in the state will always be alert to aid in advancing the interests of the state as a whole. It is, therefore, especially gratify- ing to Northern Minnesota to note the purpose of those who are now viisting us to gain first-hand infor- mation so that they may fairly, just- ly and conscientiously consider and determine their attitude upon the various projects that will inevitably be presented, looking to the devel- opment of the resources of the state. It is certain to be a long stride ahead for Northern Minnesota. In the acknowledgement of our ap- preciation of the visit paid us we cannot refrain from extending our most sincere thanks to Senators Me- Garry and Nord for initiating and carrying to such successful consum- mation the idea of this crowning project to aid not only us but all of the people of the great state of Min- nesota. We hope that our visitors will be so well pleased with Bemidji that they will come again. Come often, so that you may see the fresh en- couragement and impetus that your visit has given to the “Magic City of the North.” June is trotting out its quota of brides, with the bridegrooms trailing along in leash. A knocker knocks everyone but himself, and he is the one that de- serves them. ‘We crave your indulgence, brothers. We were too busy hustling news to- day to spare time for a learned dis- course on the latest war develop- ments. Many people solemnly declare that they are neutral, but we doubt if any of us are so in reality. As long as the brain works we will have our likes and dislikes, and our ideas and beliefs, and you can’t find a cork big enough to fit the mouth of the bottle.

KKK KA KKK KKK KKK KD * WHEN THE FARMER x x COMES T0 BEMIDJI * KKK KKK KKK KKK KK How do you greet the farmer when he comes to Bemidji? Is your greeting such that he feels that he is with us, but not of us? Or is he made to feel that he is in HIS town, among HIS people, and with HIS friends? The making or the marring of this town depends greatly upon your at- titude toward the farmer when he favors us with his visits. He is the backbone of the com- munity and without his aid and en- couragement we would be an unsuc- cessful business community. The townsman is no better than the man from the farm, and the farmer can claim no superiority over the townsman. ‘We are all human beings, with the same aims and purposes in life, and endowed with the same brands of intelligence. In fact, we are brothers of a com- mon community, the only difference being that the one lives in town, where life is a little more diversified, while the other breathes God’s pure air in the green fields of the country. Let us remember that we are brothers, and sisters, and -cousins, and that the welfare of one is vital to the success of the other. ‘When we ride out into the country the farmer extends the hand of fel- lowship, bids us. welcome, and hands us a hearty “come again.” It is a delightful characteristic of the man from the farm, for his greet- ing is sincere and his invitation is from the heart. But what of us when the farmer comes to town? Is our welcome on the same high plane as his? Is he made to feel and realize that our smile is for HIM, and not for the contents of his purse? ‘We of the town are proud of the farmers of this community, and of their wives and daughters. They are men and women of a high order of intelligence, whose integrity Treat Pimples and Bilackheads ‘ from the Inside Don’t Rely.

THE BATTLE FRONT. Petrograd, Russia, June 17, via London. The number of head and arm wounds of the men at the front is enormous, for men in trenches ex- pose only their heads and arms. Many hundreds are hit in the head and death does not result from the wound. Occasionally one may see the slightly wounded walk back with Kieads bound up or arms in slings. Motor trucks loaded with wounded tear along the roads leading back from. the _extreme front. Perhaps forty per cent of the wounded are back on the firing line after three months’ care and rest in a hospital. It all”depends upon a man’s health and blood. If the blood is pure and good, the soldier gets the first aid, proper treatment and his wounds heal Dby first intention. Good blood is everything to every man. It means fresh strong nerves, good - digestion, good circulation. Those who have used Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery marvel at the way it checks blood diseases. See a man today with skin all broken out; see him a few weeks later after using the “‘Discovery,” his skin is all cleared up, eyes bright, and he is contented with himself. " The foundation of good health is good blood! Are you pale? Are you weak? Are you no longer ambitious or energetic? Have you pimples or boils? Do you suffer from headaches, low spirits? Then you are anaemic your blood is thin, lacking in healthy, trength-giving red corpuscles.. Then your blood is impure—and your liver is not up to its task of clearing the blood from the poisons accumul- ated. . Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Dis- covery is a temperance remedy that will restore to you rich, health-giving blood—a remedy proved by experi- ence (in tablet or liquid form.) It is a glyceric extract of roots from our forests, known to science as those which will best give the stomach; liver and bowels needed help.—Adv. Get Rid of Your Rheumatism.
