OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY m BEMIDJI GOOD ROADS At the present time, and right on the eve of the tourist business, the roads leading into Bemidji via Cass Lake, Walker and Park Rapids are 'in poor condition, which condition must be remedied at once, if we are to secure any favorable advertis- ing on:our roads. The "Cass Lake road, on which work is being done, i§ not up to the usual standard of state built roads. It is rutty and soft, and hard topass over. In fact, you must pass “through,” rather than over. The road to Walker is poor between Laporte and Benedict, a stretch of about six miles, the balance of the distance being only fair. The road below the state park toward Park Rapids is now undergo- ing severe repairs, which makes it slow going and BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER PUBLISHED DAILY EXCEPT SUNDAY BY THE - be taken at once. Mr. Babcock has been invited to come to Bemidji to inspect conditions, but information received will be upable to do so uiitil later . In the meantime we are cuss!nz -nd ‘cussing and “watchfully waiting.” ’ ——13 TOURISTS' INFORMATION IUkEAU Tourists, when arriving in Bemidji, ’hlve llwlys found a ready and willing source of reliabfe formation in our capable Civic and Cdmmerc: sociation, secretary, st! Lelia Stanton. fl\indrq s last year secured mtomatmn with regard to roads, direction’shtd ac’commodat!ons from these hendqunr- ters. 1€ o0 Miss Stanton is wel} posbed, and ‘always 'keeps' posted”oh Foad ‘conditions tfigoughout this section of the state, and-is qualified to give the desired in- formation at all times: By action of the Board of Directors of the Be- midji Civic and Commerce nlpoclahon, the secre- tary was instructed to: have signs posted on roads leading into the city as well as at garages and fill- ing stations and hotels for the convenience of the tourists, so that they may be guided to the central and official tourist inlormatum bureau in the City Hall building. — While Park Rapids and Hubbard county needs a hospital and should have one, Bemidji is going through the peculiar experience of having a well equipped institution in its midst with its doors sud- denly closed to the public. To be without a hos- pital here; is a hardship—in a city the size of Be- midji, it's a calamity.—Park Rapids Journal. 3 Madison co-eds say men students are conceited, fickle, untruthful, impolite, ill-mannered, thought- less, rude, disrespectful and selfish. If they had added, “banty-legged, bashful and broke,” they would have cnvered a lulr proportion of the minor defects. § ] Legion boys may be expected to defend the girls in their demand for one-piece bathing suits, You remember one of the things the boys fought for was “freedom of the sees.” — Men who have to dé the housework while their wives serve as jurors, are peeved on the ground IE’W YORK 1S LARGEST oY’ ‘American..

When tourists reach Park Rapids or Walker they are advised that roads are poor %o Bemidji and therefore hesitate about coming to Just what can be done is a matter of the state highway department to decide, but COULD NOT FORGET COURTESY [~ Japansse, Though Inebriated, onyn | at Once the Inborn Politeness of His Race. It was on the road to Kamakura on a very pleasant morning, that we were favored with an unusual illustration of native politeness. Courtesy i1s an In- teger of Japanese character, and though It often confuses the outland- er beyond understanding, particularly in business transactions, It is mever- theless a perpetual joy to hlm. The coolie, the room boy, has quite Chester- fieldian manners In reserve for any occasios. Such a coolle it was who sprawled in a suke stupor fair fn the middle of the narrow roadway, with the car rushing down upon him. At night he would® have been maimed or killed before the brakes could be applied. As it was, the nonchalant chauffeur halted with the tires almost at the heels of the slumberer. Stepping from the car, he thrust his foot in the ribs of the coolle, without heat or haste, and rolled him from the way. At this the drunken one propped him- self on a wavering elbow, took in the situation and essayed a most amaz- ing recovery. 1le rose and stood be- side the car to doff his hat almost to the ground, and very clearly, though in Japanese, tendered a gentleman's apology for the inconvenience he had caused the travelers.—Ben Hur Lamp- man in the Portland Oregonian. Fishermen Use Colored Nets. In Dalmatia it has been noticed that the fishermen dye their nets in wonderful shades of brown and bright green. They have found by experience that while the fish are canny enough to fear the white nets and flee from them as from a danger signal, they swim calmly into the meshes of the green and brown ones. It seems possible that this is be- cause the green and brown strands of the nots are not unlike the floating strands of seaweed. Another expla- nation Is that the eye of the fish is unable to distinguish these two colors from that of the sea water. These dyes are extracted from the bruised burks of plants. After the @ets have been well sonked in thése natural dyes and then' thoroughly dried, the colors fire foutid to be fast' both as regards water:and’sunlighti < SUBSCRIBE FOR, THE PIONEER: e el ee—— NOTICE FOR BIDS this city.
