' Already the delegates are mappizg out a plan whereby they may convince this body that the con- vention of next year should be held in this section of the state. Bemidji without a doubt has many advantages to offer which will go a long way toward ' putting this project over. As a convention center this city is already recognized as usually in the running, and what it goes after in the right way it seldom loses. Co-operation of the local citizens and the citizens of every neighboring ‘town and village has helped to bring this about and this project which is being undertaken by the local Legionaires will require the same co-operation which has been given in securing other conventions. The bringing of this\ vast delegation to Bemidji in 1921 during the month of August or September would mean that between 1,500 and 2,000 of . America’s fighting men would visit our city for a period of three days. It would niean that Nofthern Minnesota would become a common phrase-on the tongues of men who are doing things and will con- tinue to do things for many years to come. Many of the men who would be ‘chosen to come here prob- ably have never visited this section of the. state and consider that there are no advantages here ' which would warrant such a meeting to be desig- nated at Bemidji; but after that visit they would have a totally different opinion of this vast portion of the state.

You've heard book ‘agents. talk up their wares until they ‘were blue in'the face, and you've heard them talk ‘down: the books the other :fellow had. to * sel}y . But did you ever hear a book agent, or anyone else, 'say ‘that the Bible isn’t' the ben»boqk’ in all “the -world? 3 L And yet, while we've been looking on the Bible as the best book for our spiritual and moral welfare we seem to have overlooked the fact that it.is also the best book ever written ‘on X . We believe every Bible reader will be in few worda along that line, and so oughi ness man, regardless of whether he ea the book ‘or not. 'Bruce Barton,’famous'author, recently said, speaking in a New York church: “The Bible has the greatest record ‘of salesman- ship ‘ever written. St. Paul sold religion to Athens when it was fearfully overstocked with religions of - its'own. And he did it by making a:survey of the situation and utilizing ‘conditions at hand, just as a modern salesman must do. The trouble with our pastors of ‘today is they do not.know there are: different forms of salesmanship, and they do not know what news is. * They must learn to trust the newspaper men: The things Christ did were great news. They would be great news today. < ‘Peter’s release from. jail by reason of the.eqr'tbimake ‘would deserve -a_ big headline if it happened today;” There’s some mighty good food for:thought in those few words.
