'The plan is to publish pictures of the !‘beauty spots’” and ather attractions that the city affords, supplemented by the recent prize es- says, in part or-in whole, on- “What Makes Bemidji a Good City?” The .annual is planned: to- contain 160 pages, 8 by 10 inches, but present indications are that additional pages will have to be published in-order to cover its' many interestng features. The financal burden is carried to a large extent by subscriptions, but other means are also necessary -to raise the required funds. Each class has to contribute a ceftain amount. The senior class is pledging a cer- tain amount per member as financial backing. The merchants and other professions will be given an opportun- ity to advertise and will thus not only have an excellent -advertising medium “but also a chance to put their namey permanently in a record of the progress of the community. The public is asked to aid by their subscriptions to the book. The an- nual is not published for pecuniary profit. Every dollar collected will be spent on the book. The annual will be an index of not only the educational activities of Bemidji but of the city as a whole. Name Wanted ' Another- novel feature of the book is the name. The public as well as the students are asked to suggest a sait- able name for the annual. Conipetent judges will select the best name-sub- mitted .and the ‘party whose. sugges- tlon is chosen ‘will receive his book the following in a recent issue of the “home_town” paper: ..
