OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS W THE HOME-OWNING HABIT. Recent census returns show that six million families in this _country own their own homes. Possibly the number has been increased. of late by high rents. 1 thought it possible to own their homes, have been induced to undertake it by uncertain tenure and mounting rents. Uncertainty of residence and lack of funds to buy or build, make it necessary for some to rent. But this is less frequently the case than is generally imagined. Others hold the confirm- ed idea that it does not pay in actual dollars and cents to own a home. Taxes, interest on. the investment and upkeep, they feel, make it a losing game to have a domicile in their own right. Anyone who figures the problem out in this way has miss- ! ed the fine secret of home-owning. For there is a joy and pride in home possession that money cannot buy, nor can these values be written down on paper. With a stake in the premises, a new interest develops and lawn and house and the very trees take on a fuller and richer mean- ing. To be planted firmly in a community makes for better citi- zenship. It is giving a hostage to permamence. Civic improve- ment is thus translated into personal terms. Every gain-made by the community bécomes an addition to the home life. Moreover, there comes to the children of a home-owner a heritage of memory and association not vouchsafed to those brought up in tenement or apartment. ' Children may be uncon- scious of this at the -time, but in later years they will look back| to the permanent root-tree with gratitude and praise. Its mem- ory will be then like a light upon a hill. Renting is largely a habit and so is home-owning, but their social import is widely different. The renting habit tends toward nomadism, impermanence, and indifferent, care-free citizen-| ship. The home-owning habit tends to social stability, pride of residence, neighborliness and domesticity. Upon these values! .iIn the llong run rests the welfare of ‘the nation:<~Minneapolis | ournal. PESSNS T e WELCOME! LAND MERCHANTS Bemidji welcomes the members of the Minnesota Realty association today. Gathered here today for. their first summer outing, the members of this organization will-be made welcome in the characteristic Bemidji way. We hope they will feel at home. We know they will. We have an idea they will hate to leave when their outnig comes to an end and that is the way we want them to feel. There is always' something of a lure for| real estate and land men in a new country Where development is| going on. There is.no doubt but that the Beltrami County Real Estate Board will be able to show their guests much develop- ment in this vicinity before they go back to their home towns. ! A new country depends, to a large extent, upon the real| estate men of the community to interest new settlers in purchas- ing and settling upon the land. A very large number of the new settlers in Beltrami-and neighboring counties have been brought here and are being brought here now through the work of the real estate men. They are a valuable asset to a community and Bemidji has the good fortune to have some real, honest wide- awake land merchants—and, better yet, Beltrami county has much real honest-to-goodness land waiting the settlers these land merchants are bringing here: g _|days In the paleolithic age, when the Many who would not have {overtures of the accused had been re- An occidental would have |§i HAVE OLD CAVEMAN INSTINCT Lovers, In the Orient, Primitive in Their Methods of Demon- strating Affection. | There are all sorts of ways of ex- pressing affection.

The motive alleged was revenge, because Jected. taken laudanum or a Japanese swain would have committed harakirl. The Indian, however, showed an original- ity of conception worthy of a better object. Just imagine your feelings: were you to see the dainty form of a “hippopotamus issuing from your | celling! Used Noah’s Ark Plans. No secret seems to have been made of the method of construction adopted by Noah in building his ark. On the contrary, the specifications are given in detall in the Bible. Imitations of it have been attempted now and then in recent times. Thus, in the yeat 1609, a Dutch merchant named Peter Pansen built at Hoorn a ship on the same modei, though not of correspond- ing size. It was 120 feet long, 20 feet brond and 12 feet deep. The vessel was found' to be ‘remarkably well- adapted for freightage, and it is sald would hold one-third more lading than other ships of like size without re- quiring more hands to work it. Much more recently several so-called “fleu- ten” or floats, were built after the | model of the ark in Denmark.
