OPFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS CAPACITY FOR ACCURACY Speaking to.a group of young consular ap- pointees, the other day, Secretary Hughes said: “I confess that in my experience with young men the capacity I have found least often is the capac- ity for accuracy.” The secretary of state had in mind the very great importance of these young men sending from foreign countries to which they might be assigned reports that would be dependable in every detail. It is not enough for them to believe that they are right; they must know that they are right. Close observation is a prerequisite of accuratc reporting. To observe thoroughly and correctly, to get right down to bed-rock facts, and then to report the result of the investigation accurately, without the slightest deviation from the truth, is one of the rarest things to be found, either in gov- ernment or business. The young man just starting his business career cannot spend his time to better advantage than in developing such natural powers of observation as he may have, in fostering and increasing his store of patience in order that he may not grow weavy in #alvidg foy the truth, and then in increasing his capacity for accurate deductions and findings based on his close observation. g There i3 @ solid and substantial berth today in business for the young man who is a close observer and an accurate reporter. The man with large busi- ness affairs on his hands is looking for such as- sistance, alert, intelligent, dependable assistance, and he is not likely to haggle if such help costs a trifle more than the ordinary sort.—Valve World. § Germany says she will pay the allies when.she can, but canned debts don’t make much of a hit with the allies. § $ ‘Are you“enjoying these nice spring days, or.is the wife cleaning house? 0!

These men are a}l re- quired to buy their own farms. Most of them have some money, but arrangements must be made with some of them to provide farms or land for farm development on small payment down and easy terms. There is nq better place than Beltrami county for suchi'opportunity. The student will find here | the finest productive soil and co-gperation on the part of land-men-and property owners. In this con- nection the Bemidji Civic and Cpmmerce associa- tion will be of great assistance to those desiring land for development. Let’s get behind the movement and: bring to this county really. worth-while men/ and women, who have the'training to develop thg best kind of farms and who will make the best kind of citizens, § B. W. LAKIN TO u»:z'l; BEMIDJI B. W. Lakin has been one jof Bemidji’s most in- fluential and substantial cifizens, ‘and his leaving for a bigger job in a smallicity across the border is regretted by a host of Ariends and citizens. Mr. Lakin has been a power in Bemidji business eircles and one of the bpst boosters. Northern Min- nesota has ever had. ‘e will miss'him. His going will be a decided loss t4 Bemidji and a decided gain to Fort Francis. His work in connéction with new projects and enterprises for Benfidji, including the new Birch- mont, the golf couyse, better roads and parks, has had few equals. [We extend congratulations to Fort Francis nnd,/express our sincere wishes for success to Mr. apd Mrs. Lakin in their new home, at the same tinfe believing that they will always remain citizens fof the United States. § § ’ BiST STARTING PLACE A California clergyman’s championship of court- ing in church/ has started a discussion among other brethren in Wwestern states, some voicing opposition to it. If they would ’fess up, quite a number of old-timers "xereabouts, as elsewhere, would ack- nowledge that their marital happiness dates back to the time when they took “her” home from meetin’, starting at the church door—and what better starting place could there be?—Pittsburgh Chronicle Telegraph. §—-1§ ADAMS A GOOD LEADER Chas. R. Adams has been named by Governor Preus.as a member of the Republican State Cen- tra] committee and, accordingly, again becomes the chairman of the state organization. Governor Preus’ selection automatically makes him the head. To Chairman Adams is credited much of the suc- cess/of the Republican campaign two years ago, and his masterly handling of the Republican state con- veption of recent date has stamped him as a man alt' more than ordinary executive ability. 5 -8 / No state would profit more than Minnesota, per- haps no other so much.

So wife and I have given it up, We bless the ties that bind; And walking slowly side by side, We are coming on behind. Our aim in life is only this: To do the best we can, To have enough to pay our debts And not owe any man. ’Tis true, we are not up to date, But this we do not mind; We are traveling at a steady gait, And coming on behind. The women now wear silken skirts That barely reach their knees, And silken hose so very thin You’d think that they would freeze. But wife and I wear woolen hose And clothes that are fleece-lined ; We do not care to be in style, We are coming on behind. We see young couples starting out, Each with the best intent; The honey-moon is hardly o’er Before their cash is spent. Then it’s separation and divorce, They cannot stand the grind; My wife and I observe it all ‘While coming on behind. Now if you're tired of the strain, Of all the modern ways; If there is a longing in your heart For those good old happy days; If you would Peace and Happiness And Joy and Comfort find— Just settle back with wife and I And march along behind. —C.
