And still, the | board must not overlook the tourists. They must be well taken| care of also, for these people will eventually bring more tour-| ists to Bemidji. y ¢ One thing that the park board has promised to do, and| which will furnish additional amusement for home people and| tourists alike, is the construction of a diving tower and spring " board for the bathers. 37e realize that the board has only very limited funds to spend and, since the erection of the bath house, very little is left for other purposes at present. Nevertheless, we are heartily in favor of the board erecting a diving tower at the point, Lumber has already been donated and work is to start at once. This alone will attract many additional bathers| to this portion of the lake, The park board is anxious to have the city map out a per-| manent road to the point, one that tourists can follow without continually feeling that they are on the wrong road. The pres-| = ent road is in very poor condition and it is almost impossible to pass another vehicle, If some action could be taken at once to have this road laid out permanently for the board and im- proved, it would add grzatly to the numbers going ‘to this popu-| lar resort. ; The board is to be complimented for the way in which it| is taking care of those who frequent the point. It is working under adverse conditions, apparently, but, nevertheless, is tak- | ing an active interest in the work. 1 S THINK IT OVER AGAIN It is hard to realize how anyone who has seen the archi- tect’s sketch of the new high school building, to be erected here; as soon as possible;after the city has decided where it is to be | located, could vote:to have this structure, which is to serve Be- midji for many years to came, erected on the old ‘school site on ‘America avenue between Sixth and Seventh streets, This was a fine location for the old school building, but in selecting a site | for the new building, which is to be much larger, we must re- member that Bemidji is growing, that the facilities of the old school were far inadequate and that the new building is to serve Bemidji for a period of from 25 to 50 years, depending largely The new school building is to be 176 by 240 feet. The old site is 220 by 300 feet.. The ergction of this building on that site would leave a strip 22 feet wide on either end, between it and the street, and a 30-foot strip at the front and back. The| beauty of the structure would be lost almost entirely. Advice has been given Bemidji by_noted educators, includ- ing Dr. Strayer of Columbia university, who delivered the com- mencement address at the State Teachers college, to select no | site less than ten acres. This would allow construction of a beautiful campus to add to the beauty of the structure and would also permit the erection of an athletic field. Supervised recreation is held today as one of the most important phases of school life and education. The body must be developed physi- cally as well as mentally, - i Before the next election, which will be held July 7, and | which will no doubt settle the question of one of three siles voted on Saturday, we suggest and urge that every person in Bemidji who voted for the old site give this matter thorough thought before voting against a larger and.far more suitable |- site in years to come, ! Ot GAS, MODERN NECESSITY % In the collection of the information which enabled us a few days ago to give a detailed report of the building activities now being carried on in the city we were impressed very strongly with the universal aim of the home-builders to get into the homes all the modern conveniences possible. Perhaps one of the greatest of these modern conveniences is gas service. We naturally expect to find electricity in all homes being built i now, but the installation of gas is gradually coming to be con- sidered as much a necessity as any other modern convenience, | and few homes are being constructed that have not connected up with the gas mains, 1t is doubtful if there is any comfort the present housewife has in her home in the hot summer time greater than gas service, The citizens of Bemidji are fortunate in being able to c_opn_ec_t_gp with_f gas service system, T N T T T T T T R T TN T T T T T NI STy f OVERHEARD BY EXCHANGE EDITOR } The Irish sure have some reputation as fighters.

Lady Hamilton, who, during the latter part of the Eighteenth century, was a world figure, and whose activ- fties did much to change history, was born of a blacksmith and.a cook. The time was to come when she was bed- fellow with the queen of Naples, and |, close friend to' kings and princes, as well as the, wife of.the British ambas- sador to Italy, and mistress of the great Nelson, but it was as Emma Lyon ‘that she began her. career of mastering power and authority by her woman’s beauty and wiles. While walking along the street at the ‘age of sixteen she saw an old schoolfellow 'in the hands of a press gang that was about to convey him ahoard’ a British ‘ship bound for forced service. She went to Captain Payne, commander of the ship,” and begged his release. The captain agreed—on a condition. , The girl accepted it and | gave up her honor to save her friend. The captain paid dearly- for his act shortly afterward, as the young beau- ty went about the town charging up bills of enormous amounts, and he was forced to settle.
