Bemidji is MOST fortunate. She has many reasons for self congratulation, and the latest occasion is that she is to recelve $100,000 from the state for the establishment of a state normal school. The fact that $100,000 has been allowed as the initial appropria- tions will mean much to the city of Bemidji in many, many ways. The certainty of the erection of the normal, at a time not far dis- tant, will mean the building of several business houses, being delayed pending the result of the work of Bemidji in attempting to secure a state normal. It will also mean an impetus for the purchase of property and the erection of additional houses and improvement in general throughout the city. And all this will precede the commencement of actual building operations of the normal. Bemidji has received generous treatment and the people of Bemidji have ample cause to be exceedingly grateful and appreciativé. ‘What action Governor Burnquist took anent the omnibus educational bill is a matter for Governor Burnquist to decide in his duties as chief executive of the entire state of Minnesota. The Bemidji normal proposi- tion wasn’t the only thing that claimed the attention of the governor in the educational bill and innumerablle other instances, and that Bemidji was granted $75,000, to which will be added the $25,000 allowed prior, making a total of $100, 000, is no small matter and one which should call for the heartiest commendation for the governor and all who in any man- ner aided in behalf of & state normal for northern Minnesota to be located in Bemidji. And there’s glory enough for all. Bemidji has good cause to be grateful to the state legislature and Governor Burnquist. - HISTORY OF AMERICAN FLAG Never in the history of the city of Washington has there been such a universal display of the American flag (public celebrations and patriotic events, of course, excepted) as is now witnessed, says the American Luth- eran survey. The resolution for the adoption of the Stars and Stripes as the Amer- jcan emblem was passed by the Cont inental Congress June 14, 1777. An American ship, the Columbia, carried the American flag around the world in 1787-1790. The American flag was first displayed in a foreign port from the mast of the American schooner Bedford of Massachusetts which arrived in the British Downs February 3, 1783. The first American flag for the United States navy was flung to the breeze by John Paul Jones, the first American naval officer to engage a foreign foe. This flag had but twelve stars on it and it flew at the top- mast of the good ship Ranger. France recognized this flag while it floated over the Ranger, and this act also constituted the recognition of the young American government. Every battleship of the United States navy is entitled to 260 American flags every three years, although there are many renewals during that period. The cost of the flags for each ship is $3,000, which totals a large ‘sum for the entire navy. The army uses equally as many. The original flag was made in Philadelphia from bunting imported from England in 1776 just before the Declaration of Independence was promulgated. The flag which inspired Francis Scott Key to write the “Star Spangled Banner” was an immense one, being thirty feet wide and forty-two feet long, when it was hoisted over old Fort McHenry, near Baltimore, just as the British were about to attack the Monumental City. Prof. George Balch of New York City inaugurated ‘“American Flag He conducted a private school and on every 14th of June he held special services of a patriotic character and every pupil carried a flag. The high school of New Bedford, Mass., was the first public school in the United States to raise the Ametican flag over the school house, which it did on May 11, 1861, about one month after the fall of Fort Sumter. Victoriana Huerta died without saluting the American flag, as he was directed to do by Admiral Fletcher of the United States navy, but fate decided that his end should come only after he sought the protection of the American flag on the north side of the international boundary. The House of Representatives contains an immense American flag, but the largest one in the world is suspended from the top of the Postoffice department building and droops 300 feet in the inner court. The farmers are complaining about the cost of clothing and other city and town products, and town people are complaining about the cost of spuds and other farm products. What's the matter anyway? . % Little Boy Scouts are coming right to the front with offers to serve their country. But Cupid continues to lead the matrimonal army in the maddest and wildest charge in history. And Bemidji is to get a state Sunday school convention next summer, thanks to enterprising citizens, and we’ll show those southenders a real town when they come. g Since City Engineer Swinson’s salary has been tied up he doesn’t have to worry about the h. ¢. of 1. Not having any salary to spend is like hav- ing nowhere to go. The government is being flooded with applications for commissions, and ten out of every nine wants to be a general or an admiral. Gosh! Give us a gun! o Now that Bemidji has a good start on 1ts normal school watch things commence to hum. Already we’'ve heard of several property transfers for improvements. Give us a federal food dictator. Jail the price boosting speculators. Keep prices down. Give poor people an opportunity to eat three meals a day. The Bible tells us we should give one-tenth of our wealth to the Lord. ‘We have a right willing heart, if some one will tell us how we can split a IN MINNEAPOLIS ZONE (By United Press) St. Paul, April 25.—The public safety commission today ordered all saloons, pool halls and movie houses in certain districts of Minneapolis closed until peace is signed. ' The move is for military expediency. The prescribed district includes the flour mills and che river. ARE COMING HOME Arch Naugle and Fred Fraser, who have been with the Bemidji na- val militia in Philadelphia, will ar- rive in the city today or tomorrow. NO CLINIC SATURDAY There will be mno tuberculosis clinic this Saturday as Dr. Levy is called away for the opening of the new tuberculosis sanatorium at Gran- ite Falls. WILL “ADOPT” SAILORS Great Lakes, Ill., April 25.—In re- sponse to numerous letters from young women asking that they be given a sailor “for adoption,” Capt. ‘W. A. Moffatt, commanding the Unit- ed States naval training station here, today established an “Evelyn” de- partment. The department was named for Miss Evelyn Young - of Chicago, the first young woman to promise to supply a sailor with to- bacco, letters, mufflers and other lux- uries while he is with the fleet. WOMEN GIVE OUT Housework is hard enough when healthy. Every Bemidji woman who is having backache, blue and nervous spells, dizzy headaches and kidney or bladder troubles, should be glad to hear this Bemidji woman’s experi- ence: Mrs. J. Blondo, 306 Third St., Be- midji, says: ‘“My back ached so se- verely that I couldn’t rest wel! at night. It was hard for me to turn in bed or change my position. BEe- lieving that the trouble was caused by some disorder of my kidneys, I was led to try Doan’s Kidney #ills, procured at Barker’s Drug Store, as one of my people had been cured of kidney complaint by them. ‘They soon removed the pain in my back. They also strengthen my kidneys and I have felt well ever since.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—sget Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Blondo had.
