Pa—_— AR R e i T e BOND PROBLEM FOUR WILL BE SOLVED (Continued from: page !) and hold the bidding -open to give Mr. Greenman an opportunity to con- sult his company: A new face appeared in the coun- cil: circle last night, Pearl Barnell} being unanimously elected to.succeed Alderman*Hazen ofthe/Fourth :ward/ Mr. Barnell is’a’ well ¥nown" pamt- ing and,‘g\ecorg;im&bfl 'actor d a lengthy ~ petition” was presen signed by leading citizens of theq. _Fourth, asking that Mr. Barnell be named as their representative. Swinson Re-elected. Thomas Swinson was again chosen city engineer, and the selection of a water superintendent was again dé- ferred two weeks, pending the de- liberations over the water’ problem for the city. Fred Petrie was again awarded the contract for the care of the city paupers. He has consented to. in- stall modern plumbing, provided the city will extend the water main to his place. M. E. Ibertson was awarded- the contract for burial of paupers. His bid was $18.50. Huffman & O’Leary bid $19.50. The award was unani- mous. z ~ Municipal Judge Gibbons made his report for the week ending March 30 ghowing receipts for the city of $63.. " ¢ Heretofore, when some one. took out a license and desired to transfer it, it has been allowed and the li- censes issued to a certain person would sometimes be floating around the city in the hans of others.

A lengthy petition was presented from residents of the Fifth ward. for paving of its streets in the business center, the pavement to connect with the hard road running between the Fifth ward and Bemidji, and also to extend ta the new school in. -the Fifth. The petition was referred to committees. There seemed no dis- inclination not to act favorably ‘to the petition but the question of wa- ter for the Fifth ward is under dis- cussion with the water problem, and suitable water service for the Fifth claims prior attention over any pav- ing. In any event, the water would have to be put in beforesthe paving could be considered. Alderman) Joanis of the Fifth stated after coun- cil meeting that the Fifth would ra- ther have the water than the paving at the outset. Street Superintendent Hazen re- ferred to needed attention to certain spots in streets in Bemidji and this will be given as soon as the bond problem is solved. nmmnuRninnnnnnnn Today-—Telephone the Pioneer of- fice, 922, about that news item you have in mind.

Public -Health Too Much Neglected. - TURNING GARBAGE 'NTO FUEL ~Public health work in this country {s still in its infancy. All tests applied showed the health departments in the smaller cities to be weaker than those in the larger citles. Perhaps the most surprising finding is that the Southern and Pacific citles have batter devel- oped municipal health departments than the Northern cities from the Rockles to the Atlantic.. The Central Northern cities stand at the foot of the list. A recent report concludes that the appropriations. granted ~most health. departments in this' country are grossly inadequate for the new functions modern ' science requires them to perform.. It Is.stated. that health departments should be allowed a “minimum wage” of 50 cents per in- habitant per year, as compared - with the present average allowance of 22 cents.—Government Bulletin. Stranger Understood. The stranger in Cleveland accosted a man whom he judged to be an old {nhabitant. “Have you lived in Cleveland long?”’ asked the stranger. “About twenty years,” acknowledged the Clevelander. . “Ts the climate here salubrious?” “Is the climate here—? Say, you ean just bet it is. And would you mind putting that word down~on a piece of paper for me? I can use it. I've used all the cuss words I know of" on .this ,doggoned climate, and that sounds like a new one. How do you spell it? Yes, sir; I'll bet this Is the most salubrious climate this side of— hello, where are you going?” But the stranger had learned.all he wanted to know.—Cleveland Leéader. ) it N i ASTOUNDING REPORT FOR BEMIDJI The ‘wife of a mercnant had stom- ach trouble o .bad she could eat uothing but toast, fruit and hot wa- ter. Everything else would sour and terment. ONE SPOONFUL buck- thorn bark, glycerine, etc., as mixed in Adler-i-kxa benefited her IN- STANTLY. Because Adler-i-ka flushes the ENTIRE alimentary iract its relieves ANY CASE constipation, sour stomach or gas and prevents ap- pendicitis. It has QUICKEST action of anything we ever sold. City Drug Store.—Adv. Experiments Made by "Texas City Would Seem to Have Solved Most Perplexing Problem. Austin, Tex:, has solved the prob- lem of garbage disposal in a way that is not only sanitary 'but profitable. Forty of the leading dq:ens' formed & company and madeé a contract to re- move all the city’s refuse and garbage. This is taken to a factory,.where all ‘non-infldmmable objects, such as bot- tles, iron and tip. cans.are removed. What is_left is_ ground, mixed with ground coal slack, steam and creosote and molded into bricks weighing two pounds each. The brick sells at §6.50 a thousand. 2 The University- of Texas analyst tested the, bricks for heat-producing qualities and found that where oak gave 8,000 heat units the garbage bricks gave 12,000. . They burn equally well in ranges, furnaces, bakery grates, open grates and base burner stoves. u o1 | | DWIgHT D, MILLER |~ INSURANCE SPECIALIST " | “+ .
