Bemidji will have a chautauqua for five days next week, beginning with Monday. We urge every person in this community to give his or her support to this chautauqua so that the guarantors will secure another one for next year. The chautauqua is recognized as the most potent influence in the mold- ing of public sentiment. Within the past ten years the thought of the whole middle section of the United States has been quickened and modi- fied by the platform utterances of its great lecturers. The musical con- certs have wonderfully improved musical taste and have given joy to multitudes. There is no longer any question of the value of a well con- ducted chautauqua to any commu- nity. Bemidji is especially fortunate in securing this year one of the best programs that a chautauqua gives. Never before has such a high class entertainment been given in Be- midji. Every person is urged to buy his or her ticket today from Bemidji busi- ness men. By so doing you will save fifty cents and you will help the Be- midji men make up their guarantee. GAME IS BIG. Walter Pilot: The Pilot congratu- lates the towns along the central route of the Jefferson highway which has been officially decided upon, and we wish to state that neither this paper nor the local automobile as- sociation are to be numbered with those who show an inclination to be sore over the final announcement as given out by Mr. Clarkson, who re- sponded to the invitation to come to Minnesota and decide the matter. The rivalry for this highway has been a great thing for northeastern and northern Minnesota. - It means much better roads everywhere, and the fact that Walker, as well as other live towns, will devote time, money and energy to either tap the Jefferson highway or. interest themselves in other popular trails through the state, does not signify that this time, energy and money is being spent to, discredit the original gulf-to-boun- dary highway. When it comes to a . matter of good roads, the game is plenty big enough for all of us. NORTH DAKOTA PROSPERITY ‘A Demogratic editor who is a lit- tle too inquisitive for his own good, wants to know why, if American prosperity is a war munition product, bank deposits in North Dakota ‘have grown 70 per cent since 1912.
