One of the underlying reasons for this increased cost/isthe diminished supply of pulpwood in our forests. Forest fires do noti tell the whole story, but they represent one of the largest items that is respongible for the present condition.. ' N A camp fire left smoldering, or a buring cigarette or match carelesly thrown aside, is 8 detriment not only to the success of your favorite daily paper, but to the pulp and paper m@u& try, lumbermen, manufacturers, and the welfare of the nn'tlon. 1t is because-of this fact that President Harding has proclaimed Forest Protection Week, May 22-28, in order that the present unnecessary waste by forest fires may be forcibly brought to the attentio nof the citizens of our country. Faies CLOSE UP AND GO ; ‘A request has come from Mayor A\ V, Garlock asking that all business and professional places close from 10 o’clock a. m. to 1 o’clock p. m. Friday, May 28, in order to allow -everyone to attend the land clearing demonstration. We cannot expect our visitors to work up much enthusiasm over the proposition if we won’t show a good deal ourselves and the best way to show ours is to be there in big numbers. i The demonstration is of sufficient importance to us to let everything else go for three hours and be there.: {Every person is going to be there anyway, so what’s the use hanging around the stores—there will be nobody to wait on. Let’s all be there! % D e | B N.M.D.A. = Bemidji is to be represénted at the Northern Minnesota Development meeting, to be held at Eveleth June 24 and 25, by two speakers. -H. Z. Mitchell will talk of the relation' of news- papers to Northern Minnesota: progress and Charles Carter will talk on his favorite subject of land clearing. Bemidji is always well represented at the meetings of this association, and her good reputation will without question be upheld again this year, _If there is any prize up for the best speech on land.clearing we’ll bet Charlie Carter will again bring home the bacon. —_— TENSTRIKE UP IN LINE Not to be outdone by Bemidji and Blackduck in the land " clearing demonstration game, Tenstrike, with its live Commu- nity Commiercial club, is putting on a demonstration Saturday afternoon. In fact, they are going us one better, for they in- tend not only to clear an acre of stumps but are going to plow it and seed it all in one day. Some enthusiastic bunch at Ten- strike.. Suppose if they could grow the crop and harvest it in one day they would try it. It is the right kind of enthusiasm and there can’t be too much of it.' PN A : N YOU IMAGINE IT? What a sight it will be Friday to see all the Bemidji busi- ness men in overalls, working. Can you imagine all of them working at the same time? . We'll bet some loafer will have a .story to swap about the time every man has a stump in his arms and down to the ground will go-the stump, till the story is fin: ished..

WAYS UNDER OBSERVATION Took' Another Step in Following Hls Father in Public Life' When He: Took the Oath as Assistant Secre- tary of the Navy. By EDWARD B. CLARK. ‘Washington. — Theodore _Roosevelt has taken the oath of office as assist- ant secretary of the navy. In part, 80 far as public service is concerned, young Roosevelt has followed in the steps of his father. He was a mem- ber of the New York assembly, as his father was, and now he is assistant secretary 'of the nayy, as his father was. t Colonel’ Roosevelt 'perhaps *is not entirely. personally. comfortable.. He bears his father’'s ngme, and he Jooks like his father, and perhaps naturally the people look to him to make good, as his father did. This young man probably cannot help féeling that in a sense he is under constant watch. He is a natural young man, but nev~ ertheless, " probably ‘unconsciously, - he is constantly on his guard, lest his feet slip. It must be irksome to know that everybody is taking such an interest In you, not always because it is you, but simply because you are the son of your father. Under such circumstances how can a young man with proper ambitions always, feel en- tirely at ease? Theodore Roosevelt is an entirely human young.man. :He has all the liking which ‘his father had for out- door life and: for' the public service. He is willing t0 work and no Demo- crat, progressive “Republican,” corr: servative Republican, or: reactionary,| Republican @ver .‘has entered’ denial}: lust. for -the|: ; v 80 good ‘for . young Roosevelt, but :still »he ‘must of the young" '-mnn';_ strenuous life.”.

It was one time during the absence of the secretary of the navy. It became necessary whila the secretary was absent for the as- sistant secretary to act in a'high mat- ter. He acted promptly and effec- tively. It was due to him that Dewey had coal and ammunition enough to go to Manila'and engage in' the battle in the bay, and it also was due to Roosevelt that Dewey was where he was in the East and ready to move his ships against those of the Span- fards. ; Criticlsm and some ' resentment' were expressed In ‘the Navy depart- ent hecause of Roosevelt's quick and early action.
