' MAYOR OF BAGLEY CALLED FOR SERVICE: ONE DOCTOR LEFT {Special -to P Bagley, . April -1 Bjorneby received i B telegram last ' night QK ton: X it Lieut. Peter C. Bjorneby, Medical Reserve Corps, Bagley, Minnesota. You are assigned to active duty. Proceed to Fort Sheridan, Illinois, and report to commanding officer for duty with hospital train number three. - M’CAIN. The doctor will leave tomorrow for Fort Sheridan in answer to the mes- sage. This leaves Bagley, the county geat of Clearwater county, without a physician and surgeon end the county with only one doctor. Bag- ley, before the decalaration of war, had three doctors, two of whom left ‘as soon as war was declared to’ take charge of practices of doctors ‘who had’answered their country’s call at other' points in the United States, expecting: Dr. Bjorneby to remain. But the doctor had too much red fblood in his veing to remain in eivil life when his country made the sec- ond call and_ volunteered his serv- ices, although he wa® eighteen years beyond the, draft age. Dr. Bjorneby, during the past fourteen years, has been a member of the board of education and presi- dent of the village council for the past ‘six years. The best wishes of the people of Clegfwater county fol- low the doctor. NAYLOR IS PROMOTED T0 SUPERINTENDENT OF LIGHTING SYSTEM - A. J. Naylor, who for thé past ten years has been connected with the Bemidji electric light plant of the Minnesota Electric Light and Power Co., as chief electrician, has been ~appointed manager and took active charge this morning. - LaGrange Worthington, who has been manager here for the past year, left for Chicago last night and ex- pects to take up similar work else- where. 4 The choice of Mr. Naylor for the position of superintendent and man- ager of the local system is a most popular one and his many friends in Bemidji are much gratified over his deserved promotion. There is no question but that Mr. Naylor will give the best of service to the com- pany and also to the people of the city in co-operating to mutual ad- vantage. %rp”‘ SRIDGE BONDS CAN BESOLD (Continued from page i) fo follow him. And at the conclusion of the reading of the communication there wasn’t the slightest doubt that Mr. Carter didn’t think much in fa- vor of the view from his parlor win- dow nor front porch. Referred to the health committee. Road improvement and construc- tion came up for discussion. Ask Water Main. The extension of water main on Irvine avenue was presented by pe- tition. The city will have to extend water to the poor house for the in- stallation of proper sanitary facilit- ies, and as there is no money in the water fund, it is believed that for the present other water service will have to wait. oo As is the annual custom, on sug- gestion of the mayor, the council voted for a resoluton appropriating $50 for use of the G. A. R. in Dec- oration Day observance. Mayor Van- dersluis, Aldermen Phillippi and Pal- mer were named a committee to take care of the matter. Offnding Knoll. A high knoll pours water down into a depression at the intersection of Park avenue, between Ninth and Tenth street, causing an unhealthful condition. Street Superintendent Hazen was instructed to cut down the knoll and fill the depression to abate the condition. Bonds of city officers and others who are required to give bonds were received and filed, after having been approved by the city attorney. Several other minor matters came up and were disposed of.
