SCOUT CAR ON HIGHWAY TRIP ARRIVES HERE (Continued from Page:1) the cities from New Orleans to Bemid ji_have gazed on the car this sum- mer, the name Bemidji has been well advertised. To H." Mayne Stanton, former secretary of the Bemidji Civic and Commerce asso¢iation is due the L credit for this valuable bit of public- ity that has come to this city. Considerable importance attaches to Mr. Pierson’s trip. The official is one giving out much information re- garding some of the purposes but it is known that the Iarge and powerful organization which he represents is seeking a route to Winnipeg distinct- ly apart from that followed by the Jefterson Highway as it is felt that all of the traffic that is eventually bound to come to the north cannot be handled on any one route. It is also known that Scenic highway is considering the making of -connec- tions with some organized route to the coast. It is considered likely that overtures will be made to General Manager Pierson looking to'the rout- ing of coast traffic from the Scenic Highway to the Theodore Roosevelt Highway via Crookston and 'Grand On the other hand it is said the Scenic highway desires to find a shorter way to the north than thav which has been suggested. ‘Millions'of dollars in road improve- ments: and a tremendous advertising campaign will bring many new tour- ists to Minnesota next season via this comparatively new and said to be the Auto keg driving contest. |in immediately making efféctive on|most beautiful central® west automo- Cars must go forward |the railroads as a whole in the Unit-|pjle thorofare which follows = the river . from- mouth to source.

RALPH GRACIE POST ‘TO MAINTAIN BOOTH AT FAIR NEXT WEEK Activities Discussed for Coming Year at Interesting Meet- ing Held Last Night Plans for maintaining a booth at the Beltrami county fair were dis- cussed last night at the meeting of the Ralph Gracie post of the Ameri- can Legion held at the rooms of the Bemidji association and action was taken which is' necessary to author- ize a committee to make such ar- rangements as it sees fit for the use of this booth. ‘As suggested to the committee last night it will undoubtedly be used as an advertising proposition for ‘the Legion to acquaint ex-service men with legion affairs. ‘The Women’s auxiliary will probably have charge #f the booth for the purpose of sell- g concessions, such as soft drinks andies, to the fair visitors. Dur- major portion of the day of the local post will be sta- | ex-séTvice men who ng their discharge ORRQ,secure as many as possible. On Friday afternoon an automobile posed at the meetink last night. Activities for the coming year as recommended by the committee of 25 which met last week were accepted and various committees appointed to carry out the plans as proposed. The committees are as follows: American- ization, with the object of staging entertainments in ‘the outlying dis- dricts to encourage Legion work; Armistice Day, to wait on the Bemid- ji. Civic and Comierce Association, thie city council and the mayor with a program for an Armistice Day cele- bration; Convention, to lay out plans for publfcity in order to secure the 1922 state convention for Bemid- COULDN’T RAISE HER HAND TO FACE St. Paul’ Woman Suffered for Four Years—Delighted Over Relief Tanlac Brought Her.| “If I could speak with everybady personally who has rheumatism and stomach trouble I would advise them to try Tanlac, for I am’ just . de- lighted at the good it has done me since I began taking it,”- said Mrs.||| J. W. Graham, of 1478 Wesley av- enue, St. Paul, Minn., recently. “During the .past four years I've had my share of suffering and I had gotten so bad off I’ was beginning to wonder how it was all going to end. I had rheumatism so bad in my left arm I was unable to raise my hand to my face and I had sharp pains across my back nearly all the time. I suffered with indigestion after every meal and everything I ate turned to gas and made breathing difficult. My heart palpitated so bad at times. I; thought I had heart trouble and there was a constant burning in my stom- ach. I suffered continually from con- stipation and was subject to frequent spells of headaches and dizziness. was badly run down and had a tired, worn out feeling all the time. “So many-people had been taking Tanlac and it did them so-much good that I got a bottle and began taking it myself. In no time I could tell it was just the medicine I had been looking for because my troubles be- gan to leave me and my appetite returned.. From then on my improve- ment was rapid and now I am free from the rheumatism altogether and have as good use of my arm and hand as ever before. My appetite is so fine that I am_ _hungry all the time and everything I eat agrees with] me perfectly. I am relieved of con- stipation and am no longer troubled with headaches and dizzy spells. . I am enjoying just splendid health and I have nothing but the highest praise for Tanlac.” % Tanlac ‘is sold in Bémidji by City Drug Store, Knutson & Lilja at Graceton; and by the leading drug- gists in every town.—Adv. , P!:on; 92»7i SP fra——— PRI '““‘mmmfiifié,‘sfi"fifism 10, 1920 ji; Program, to map out for each meeting of the post a series of inter- esting talks and other - entertain- ment to-be furnished by the memb- ers; Armory, to confer with the local armory board with-a view tQ securing the use of the armory during the winter for an, athletic organization to be formed within the post; and a “Big Brother” committee to cooper- ate in behalf of the post Wwitheall worthy organizations in this vicinity in putting over various projects which will arise from time to time. approximately tWenty members of the post will attend a pie social at Nary in answer to an invitation extended by residents there.
