As before, we feel that every citizen of Bemidji, w}lo is a qualified voter, should cast his or her vote on the‘ proJect, S0 that the school bgrd may definitely know the opinion of the taxpayers of the city. Thisis a vital matter and one that con- cerns every citizen who has children to be educated. . \Whether or not the site in question is in the right location for the new school is a matter for the citizens to decide. The Pioneer expressed its opinion on the merits of the twg sites be- fore thé last vote was taken. The opinion of The Pioneer ap- parently was not in accord with the majority of th.e_ voters, jndging from the vote cast, and having, stated our position pre- viously, we feel that all we can do now is to urge all the citizens to vote tomorrow on the Irvine site. ' P, DIAMOND POINT INDECENCIES It has come to our attention that, recently, bathers at Dia- mond Point have been subjected to annoyance by a few rowdies who seem to think that liberties may be taken with women and girls in bathing suits which would not be tolerated otherwise, This should not be tolerated for a minute and where the culprit is known, he should at once be required to leave the beach and refused admittance in the future. The lake is plenty big enough for each bather to have sufffficient room to swim about without bumping into others. The facts of the matter are that the bumping is done intentionally. Language unfit for such a place has been heard by those on the shore and must, therefore, be doubly offensive to those in the water. These unnecessary annoyances should be stopped when they are first noticed and those who are annoyed should report the matter to the park officer immediately, We must keep Diamond Point clean in every way, safe and agreeable for women and children as well as men. O——— REFUSE IN LIBRARY PARK The citizens of Bemidji, and especially some of those who use Library park, could be taught a lesson on cleanliness by the Boy Scouts, When the Scouts left their camp several weeks ago, the grounds were cleaned up so that it could not be told that there had been a camp on the grounds. No refuse of any kind remained. This cannot be said of those who patronize Library park. Papers, panana peeling, orange skins, and al- most everything else that cannot be eaten from a picnic basket are left lying on the grounds, notwithstanding there are refuse cans provided to place them in, Perhaps there are not enough cans to hold all the refuse— if not, there could be more. In any case, picnickers and those using the park should not leave their refuse lying around for others to step on, Keep the park clean. 0. PEACE AT LAST IN IRELAND And the lion shall die down .with the lamb, Can it be pos-|_ sible that that point has come in Ireland? We hope so, anyway —we read that foes are clasping hands in Ireland. long the truce will last or how permanent the peace will be, we dare not venture to say. What a relief it must be for those peo- ple in Ireland who can venture forth from their own doorsteps without the fear of having to dodge a volley of builets. It has been many moons since they felt safe to do this. The world will wait with eagerness to learn the outcome of the peace ne- gotiations, \ Bernard M. Baruch, who did such splendid work in the war era, and by good business methods saved this country many millions of dollars, has not been immune from slander. Some irresponsible person started the story that while he purported to work for a dollar a year, he really profited to the amount of one hundred fifty thousand dollars. The facts are that this was the total appropriation for the administration of the economic section of which Baruch was chief. Of this amount, only twenty-five thousand was used in paying the traveling and living expenses of twenty men on his stnlf.} The balance was turned back into Uncle Sam’s strong box. self, never received a cent, and paid his own traveling expenses.

Just how | It is a shame that patriotic men wjo neglect their own business, | HE flapper and her younger sister never look better than in the days of summertime, when simple dot- | ted swiss, printed voiles and sprightly organdies clothe them in the fine sheer cottons so well suited to youth. Everybody, from the little lady of three to her grandmother, is wearing these materials, and they are univer- sally becoming; but youth is at its prettiest in them. They are very sim- ply made for the younger girls, and this simplicity accounts for a great part of their charm, but sheer fabrics are lovely color mediums, and all the flowerlike tints and tones-we love ap- péar in this year's cottons. At the left of the picture above, the lttle girl of eight or so appears in a light blue dotted swiss, It has a baby waist with square neck opening finished with a frill of blue organdie, and three-quarter sleeves finished with a double frill of it. There is a panel | of organdie set in the front of the { hodice' with a wide hemstitched tuck across it. The girdle is also made. of organdie and there are small bows of | organdie at each side of it. The skirt hem is hemstitched. Printed voile is shown in so many, beautiful color combinations that every young girl may find the tint that pleases her most; printed dots or squares on a white ground are popu- lar and make up well with either white or colored organdie. The dress pictured is in lavender and white, witi wide sash of white organdie. The vestee of organdie has insertions of narrow val lace set in stripes, and the elbow sleeves are finished with a band of it. But the special glory and dig- nity of this frock is revealed in the wide shawl collar of organdie which makes the difference between the dress of a young girl and that of her small sister. s * COPYRIGHT IY-WESTERN NEVSPAPER UNION PICKS ’EM FOR OTHERS: BUT KNOT FOR HIMSELF Los Angeles.---Martha A.
