OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGSJ HITTING THE LONG TRAIL. i There comes a time when each of us must hit -the long trail to a world that is hidden from mortal eyes—a yvorld of which we hear much, but which we never see while l}fg lasts. The trail is plainly blazed by many markings, but it is on!y traveled by those who prepare themselves for the journey in advance. The guilding of our steps may rest in other hands, but the taking of them rests wholly with us. 5 4 ‘As we aid in removing the obstacles from the paths, of our neighbors and friends in this life, so will the obstructions be lessened or removed from our own paths when we take the long trail. . . No good act of ours is so small, no kind word so insig- nificant, but what it has its reward when our earthly accounts « are balanced. . It is not necessary to look afar for an opportunity to do good. Every day, every hour it is before us——igx'our own com- munity, in our own town, even in our own families. By our acts we are judged by God and man. not see them all, but God misses nothing. . There are many little acts of kindness we might perform for those around us, or for the unfortunate in our midst—many little words of cheer or sympathy we might extend. It is a long trail we must take some day, and our degree of comfort or discomfort will be decided before we start. For man may not reap the pleasures of the next world without earning them while in the land of mortality. -0- FLIRTING WITH SOCIALISM. . ‘Are the farmers of Minnesota willing to flirt with social- ism? Are they willing to encourage socialists in their un- American campaign within this great commonwealth of ours? The time for indifference is past. A concrete proposition faces the agricultural men and women of this state. Can the farmers afford to play with those who would socialize or nationalize , the land of America? . Every farmer is opposed to the idea of the confiscation of his land, and becoming a tenant to the state, but, never- Man may nish the basis for the opposition of the schemes of these mis- taken idealists. Any proposition of state ownership of indi- vidual business is a step in the direction of servitude to the state. . We don’t want it. . i by : T : If people who never take the trouble to vote were suddenly disfranchised they would eémit a mighty roar of protest against being deprived of their inalienable rights as a citizen of this great and glorious land of the free. It might be a good way to root ’em out of their holes. \ Wool Batting The Bemidji Woolen Mills are now manufacturing wool batting FOR QUILTS and can fill orders promptly.

Coal ahd‘:cbke from 75 to 100 per cent, and hard to get. Wood is very scarce this win-. ter, and has advanced 50 to 75 per cent, and-is likely to be higher before spring. / Gas has advanced owing to the added cost of material. As the a- terial declines, so will the gas rate. We want to add at least 200 new consumers within the next year, and can only get them by keeping the rate within range of other fuels, and we assure our patrons this will be done. : : In order to eliminate, as far as possible, any chance of shut downs, -1 and the annoyance of being out of gas just at times when it is needed, the company is now installing an additional boiler, and intends to add new gas storage tanks, as rapidly as possible. : All this requires additional capital, and would be a useless expense, unless we can be assured ‘of a continuous and,increasing output. If yot will stick by us, we will stick by you. ‘ THE BEMIDJI GAS COMPANY By J. L. George, Pres. and Treas:, 1sTEN, Lester, and you shall hear: a cigarette—wet it with your tongue, use paste, or crimp it. But Spur is the only cigarette— note that word only—that has the crimped seam. No moisture as when you roll a cigarette—no paste as used by other makers. Crimping makes Spur draw easier, burh slower, taste better. Looking at —_— There are three ways to roll, 4 cr_im[)ed; not pasted, Whats all thistalk about Crimping? « a Spur will give you the idea—and smoking one will give you the result. .- And of course everybody knows that Spurs are blended from choice Turkish, fine Burley and other home- grown tobaccos. That’s where Spur’s. good old tobacco taste comes from. “ There’s a lot more to be said—but write it yourself after you've enjoyed twenty Spurs from the neat-looking brown and silver package.
