OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS —_— CONCERTED EFFORTS COUNT It is almost amazing, to those who have only partially fol- lowed the construction of the New Birchmont hotel at the head of Lake Bemidji, to realize now that this hostelry is practically ready for occupancy. Less than three months ago work was| begun on the foundations. This occupied the greater part of the month of April, Construction of the main building began in earnest about May 1. In this 60-day period, Birchmont hotel has grown into a structure which promises to be even more popular than the hotel which was destroyed by fire last fall, Those who have been watching the construction from day to day are aware that there is some “head” behind it all. In fact, there are several heads who are supervising this work for no remuneration whatever, The committee which was appoint. ed by the Civic and Commerce association and the Bemid] Birchmont Hotel company is to be commended highly on the work it has done in this period. . Every detail has been looked after, and when the hotel opens, July 4, and guests are welcomed, few will know but that the hostelry has been in operatjpn for several weeks. Every portion of the construction and every article of the furnishings has been moved into place with the precision and speed that can come only through concerted effort. ‘Although it will take considerable time to put the grounds in the same shape they were before the fire, Birchmont hotel is sure to be a credit to Bemidji this season. The success of the hotel is already assured, with the cottages practically all spoken for during the entire summer, and with the reservation list at the hotel growing steadily every day. Local stockholders, who so willingly placed their money into this company that Bemidj summer hotel might be rebuilt are to be commended for their spirit of progressiveness. This hotel is owned entirely by local capital and for this reason, if no other, it shf_)ulc_l receive the support of local people whenever the opp_ortumty is offered. S g COMING TO THE FRONT That Northwestern Minnesota and Beltrami county are rapidly coming to the front in agricultural lines is clearly evi- denced by the progress all over this section as reported by the I . i i day evening party of nine.men representing The Farmer, an agnculturall‘ ey atsan was home to attend publication issued at St. Paul. These men are on the home lap of a 1,000 mile tour of this section and their praise for what they have seen is encouraging. . The survey, which is in the form of an annual tour, was conducted last year in West Central Minnesota. Northwestern Minnesota was selected for the survey this year., On this trip, data is secured first-hand from the farmers and merchants in every community, and pictures are taken of all views w];ich promise to be of special interest. The data will be compiled and later used in the regular issues of The Farmer, for the purpose of letting the doubtful know that this section of t}}e state is forging ahead. In other words; they are continuing ir their policy of “selling Minnesota.” : Through Beltrami county’s activities in the land clearing movement instigated this past spring, the entire section of the state has received fine publicity through The Farmer and other agricultural papers which are keeping up with the times. These papers are not content with taking things for granted, nor from hearsay. They are getting the straight facts by per- sonal sirvey and are making good use of them, both for them- selves and the growth of the state ir general. S cmago s FROM GOOD AUTHORITY ‘After being told by another good authority on school sites that the Bixby avenue site is the far most desirable property on which td locate the new Bemidji high school, those who are to vote on this site next Thursday afternoon and evening should at least give the subject second thought before voting to place the institution on the old site. State Architect A. R. Nichols, an apparently disinterested party, speaking before the Civic and Commerce association Wednesday noon, ‘declared that the opportunity to place the new school on the proposed Bixby ave- nue site was an opportunity which Bemidji could not afford to turn down. His points were very well taken and his arguments were conclusive; His point of view and the reasons which he pre- sented for placing the new school on Bixby avenue, where ample space would be provided for playgrounds, athletic fields and a campus, should serve as a guide to hundreds of voters whose blallgts are to decide the fate of this site at the coming special election, ; ; S e T OVERHEARD BY EXCHANGE EDITOR 3 | | attending school the past winter.
