OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS A WEEK WELL SPENT - Now that Bemidji Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, and the B. ‘A. C. club, have each enjoyed a week of encampment under able leadership, we recommend that plans be made in due time for similar encampments next year. This short period of en- campment where a general good time is had and the recreation| is under competent supervision is one of the best ways for the| boys and girls to spend a portion of their summer vacation each year, | . Wherever posgible, all projects attempted in order to pro- vide such outings for the boys and girls of Bemidji should be en- couraged as much as possible, The chances are that by another] year, both the local Boy and Girl Scout organizations will have a much larger membership. If that is the case, plans should be| made to establish an even better camp next year. Bemidji is certainly behind the Scout movement and at such times as it can assist, it should gladly do so. These boys and girls are the young men and women of tomorrow. SR | TO CLEAN THE SLATE In c_)rder to retire certain debts and to square up the per- manent improvement fund, the city council has decided to have an ordlr'llance drawn up, which, after passage, would authorize the callmg of a special election to vote on a bond issue to take care of this fund and put it back on a cash basis. The idea of the council is that the ‘““slate should be cleaned.” This election would take care of all except the general fund. Although the levy for several funds this year will undoubt- edly be less, it is very doubtful if the total levy for city, school and county taxes will be any less than last year. Several fun.ds have been far over-drawn for several years, each year seeing t;he fund farther overdrawn in order to take care of “nec- essary improvements.” The sooner the city and the county get squared up and get back on a cash basis, the sooner will the total tax levy be reduced, is the opinion of the present council. S O Wi LET’S HAVE THE FLYING CIRCUS . In order to secure the flying circus, which is sure to prove one of the feature attractions for the Northern Minnesota Fair at Bemidji this fall, it is first hecessary to secure 250 subscrip- tions, either new or renéwal, to the St. Paul Dispatch. This is the only way that this feature attraction can be brought to Bemidji. ¢ - \ ; - Considering this, we urge that all those who are taking the St. Paul Dispatch renew their subscriptions to help out in this contest. New subscriptions will also help. A number of young ladies have been nominated to take part in the contest and it is desired that they be given hearty support in order that this fea- ture attraction may be brought here for the fair. SN R COMING ALONG FINE i Bemidji’s new Birchmont summer hotel is rapidly nearing completion and the time for the formal opening is rapidly ap- proaching, Applications for reservations have been coming in rapidly and the success of the hotel is practically assured. Nev- ertheless, local support is always needed, and since it is owned by local capital, we urge that Bemidji citizens make the formal| opening a_success in every way. Only 150 persons can be “"i commodafed at the informal dinner and dance to be held on the| evening of July Fourth, and this number of tickets should be sold readjly. . —0 FOR THEIR OWN BENEFIT Beltrami county wool growers are to meet at the city hall | Saturday, July 9, for the purpése of considering the pooling of'! 1920-1921 wool clip in order to sell to the best advantage of a}l._ An able speaker is to be present to outline the situation and dis-| cuss the possibility of marketing. All wool growers should see to it that they are present. It is for their own advantage that| they take part in such meetings. | _____________________.._——————-——-= e s L L L e b ] 1 OVERHEARD BY EXCHANGE EDITOR DRSNS NN NRE N NN RNARRNSR SRR RSN NARRANRRANRARRARSARRRRARARARAARALLAR AR, CO.OPERATION BY CO-OPERATIVE BUTTER MAKERS The dairy industry in Minnesota has passed another significant mile- stone—in some ways more significant than any on the road since the first co-onerative creamery was established in this state. It has moved forward in strength wjth co-operation of co-operatives. The wonder is that this had not been accomplished long ago. Carrying out this principle of co-operatign, more than half of the co- operative creameries in Minnesota have banded together in a service organi- zation aimed largely at lifting Minnesota’s butter prestige in the matter of quality as well as quantity. Incidentally there is to be formed, eventually, a sales system to co-ordinate with f the first aims. But the largest single product of this expanded co-operation is bound to be advancement of Minne: and the world.—Duluth Tribune. NOW FOR RATES It is comforting to hear that no sooner are wage reductions for rnilroud; workers announced than cuts in freight rates and passenger fares are taken | up by the interstate commerce commission. * ! The public has approved the reductions only for the reason that it hopes| for relief from excessive fares and tariffs in proportion to the amount of | savings accorded the roads. But popular feeling would ‘be turned in a mo-| ment the other way if the idea got abroad-that the transportation companies | meant to pocret these vast sums. Nor would it be good business for them to attempt any such bold play, for the prosperity of the railroads lies more in volume of freight to be moved than_in maintenance of high rates, and volume of shipments is closely link- ed with what the people will regard as reasonable charges.—St. Cloud Times. N | A Rochester (Minn.) man was murdered in March, and the lad who married his widow in April offered a reward of-$500 in May for the cap- ture of the murderer.—Baudette Region. In a sense we are back to normalcy.

Tams Bixby, who lived in Stillwater soon after he was born, is in the newspaper business at Oklahoma City. He was years ago in Minnesota a political power, a boss, but like all others, he served his time. He went back into the newspaper buginess he left at Red Wing. He soon sold out there He imagines he ig'grow- ing old, evidently, judging by an editorial. What a foolish thought; Tagnu isn’t more than 70 years of age, and why should he suspect, lie is growing old? Foolish idea, perish the thought. We know men who are pretty live wires at 70 and 80, and not one of them will admit he is growing old. Tams needs a little of the invigorating breezes of old Minnesota to blow §hrqugh his whiskers, That would put the pep into him and remove the foolish idea that he is growing old.—Stillwater Gazette. ‘A Minneapolis auto driver has a case of hard luck. His license tag was stolen by bandits who had robbed a bank, and then he was fined five dollars for driving the car without tag. That seems like rubbing it in,— Grand Forks Herald. The Baudette district, and all of Northern Minnesota for that mat‘ter, is both a fairyland and a dairyland. What more could you ask?—Baudette Region. — Wisconsin legalized vacation work by children without formal permit. The prificiple is sound, although it may be abused. It goes withoutpsuylng that there are occupations in' which children of tender years should not be :vint‘l:gi:ud' va?tnth;n! or ;\o“v:cal::ldnl.’ On the other hand, the ‘vacation ‘job, resultant few dollars, has been a fine character-building infl i many. a life.—Grand Forks Herald. o R g B e Captain Amundsen reports that the ice was so thick three yeeku tq travel ninety miles.
