GFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEENINGS t is given this paper, OUR STATE PARKS In view of the agitation for the creation of & park at Red Lake, it is interesting to note what the state has done in establishing preserves for the benefit of the people of this generation and of posterity. - In addition to certain federal reserves, Minne- sota at this time has 14 state parks, the largest of which is Itasca, embracing, as it does, a tract of 22,000 acres of timber land and lakes. Minnesota, land of “sky-tinted waters,” with thousands of clear lakes set in virgin pine and other great forests, and noted for scenic beauties, is developing rapidly as a recreation state, so that these'-parks are being enjoyed each year by in- creasingly large numbers. Minnesota forests, still counted an important as- set, stretch over hundreds of thousands of acres. They abound with wild life, which, with the fish in lakes,~offer a lure for all who appreciate the out- door life. For the small boywho bobs for perch or sun fiish in the shallow lake waters, or for the scientific angler who drops deep for pike or casts for the mighty muscallonge, bass or other game fish, there is fld‘k aplenty. Black bass are to be found in the southern as well as this and central northern Min- nesota, while lake trout, pike, crappies, sunfish and other varieties can be pulled out of the waters of Minnesota, but particularly is this true of northern Minnesota. Big game is plentiful in this section; duck shoot- ing is unsurpassed, and every season of the year furnishes sport for the man with gun or rod. The state forestry service has been engaged for years in exploiting Minnesota’s recreational ad- joined by the Ten Thousand Lakes association, and both are ready to assist’ tourists and home people in having them make the most of their outings in Minnesota. pgtus given the building of good: roads, door pleasures become more popular.

Sales records. probably give you a hint of this interesting condition!, Retail stores s#ould be intensely interested in these flgures gath- ered by ‘the ‘educaticnal department of the Asso- ciated Advertising Clubs of the Wotld. This asso- clation is working to get each local advertising club to help educate the clerks of the retail stores in an effort to cut down this terrible pgrcentage of lost sales. An investigator in one of the largest de- partment stores in America recently counted 160,- 000 people enter their store in one day. Of these, but 72,000 bought anything! When retail clerks are actually, by their ignorance, carelessness or downright insolence, driving your money out of the ltb_tea as fast as it comes in, isn’t it about time that something was done about it? What do ad- vertisers think .of this state of affairs, anyhow? And how are they planning to rem?dy it? Higher wages, more interest in the business by reason of bonuses, or a regular training school of salesman- ship in the store, or what? How long will adver- tisers continue to spend a dollar in advertising goods in the newspapers, if the clerks continue to drive 55 cents of it to another, perhaps non-adver- tising, store? More power to the A. A. C.
