Two of the changes are markedly noticeable, in that one :&_v ¢ best known officials, J. L. George was:defeated for audi- ¥-a narrow margin by A. D. Johnson, practically an un- knowhn and first time he ever stepped into the political arena.|¥®ard, It wag a genuine surprise all around, for Mr. George had not = only the interests of the county office at heart but had taken an active and prominent part in civic affairs and the progress of his -home city. His successor is a clean cut, unassuming/| young man, with a splendid record, experienced in executive] capacities of railroad official offices, a resident of Bemidji, married and a man of family. B The new county i superintendent of schools was, for three year, prior to his election, assistant county superintendent. : He entered the race against J.: C. Stewart for several years super- intendent and won. He is widely known throughout the coun- . ty, experienced in educational affairs and will devote his earn- est efforts to the promotion and welfare of.Beltrami educa- tional institutions and the pupils. ‘He'is J. C. M¢Ghee., ., ... Another unknown to political circles was H. N. McKee,| ¥ ;- wh% ‘,é}itta.fter the coronership—and landed it. - Mr. McKee. 5| ] angther.well known young man, who attends to his business| | unaccompanied by an orchestra, but he is well known for sterl- ing worth and as a good citizen of Bemidji, and will be a credit to his office. 152 A EReE County Surveyor Bliler had no opposition for re-election| and nejthér did County Attorney Torrance. - These two worthies both have records that meet the hearty approval of the voters of tlge..cpunty and their election was unanimous. "'The other candidates re-elected have seen years in the| service of the county, some longer than others. They have done| all asked or expected and the voters set their seal of approval upon their records. ) “Beltrami starts off the new year after the armistice: which terminated the world’s war. It is well officered and all affairs affecting its citizens in county affairs will receive prompt, court- eous and efficient attention. —_——— “." 'G. O.

Ohio was the first state to start a presidential boom for Pershing with the organization of a “Pershing for President” league, sponsored by republicans and incorporated. The under current i§ also. heard in other states. Pershing is a republican, a veteran soldier in the wars of the nation, but is never in the great world conflict now nearing its peace’ status, has once been heard to utter the “L” The credit Has always been given to his men, American boys, and his timé devoted to personal direction of his assigned duties and the welfare of his soldiers. General Pershing is a graduate of the United States mili- tary academy, West Point, and is a man of high intellectual attainments, a broad, fair minded man, a man loved throughout his. career: by his commands and admired by all America, and should he c¢onsent to accept the honor could have it on a silver platter and be elected. which runs underground to a signal post.

WM. B. CAMFIELD _ F.'S. GREGORY € ‘ NE brick does not amount to much, / . but a million or more cut quitea’ figure, if they are properly placed. - The man'who puts’ one brick on top of an- " other is preaching a sermon—a sermon of 1) industry, of progress and prosperity—and his > work is just'as eéssential to the life of the nation 'Q_.‘,as that of the man whdStz_mdg Jin the pulpit. Ny If all t}{éfbricks,.xp all the buildings in the Pan Motor Company’s plant were placed in a row,they would reach from Saint Cloud to St. Paul and back again, and yet bricks constitute a small item in the construction of many of the larger units comprising this great plant. ; It’s a wonderful sermon these Pan bricks are preaching. It is a long sermon. —150 miles from one end to the other. It is an eloquent and impressive sermon, and one. that any layman should readily- understand. It means much to the industrial world. "It means more to the industrihl United States. : It means most, to industrial Minnesota and the thrifty City of Saint Cloud— Great cities do not grow like weeds. ‘They have to be built and bricks are * recognized as one of the world’s most important building materials. But bricks, valuable as they are, would be utterly worthless without human thought and human energy. : P As no man can live for himself alone, no man can build for himself alone. Can you imagine a town, a state or a nation whose inhabitants are 100 per cent selfish? What would be the condition of the roads, the'streets and the sidewalks in such a country? The answer to this latter question is obvious. The man that builds and the company that builds and the bricks with which they build, are among the world’s greatest blessings. i ‘The Pan Motor Company is a buil ler of the first magnitude. It builds not alone with bricks, but with steel, with concrete, with glass. It is a builder, not alone of buildings, modern in type and design——permanent and sub- *"_|'with the Pan building principle, which means that they are built the best | stantial in_character—but it is a builder of automobiles—and very soon, | of trucks and-tractors. These are being built and will be built in accord ‘ that money and brains and experience and skill-can build. ZIt’s a principle of Pan to build the best.
