These ‘“‘songs.of praise” might be inclined . to give any city the “big-head,” but not so with Be- midji. We realizé that we have faults, and many of them, but appreciate the reminders, that we are leaders in the race for prosperous, satisfied and contented communities and not “trailers.” TORAGE BATTERIES "MHID AILY EXCEPT SUNDAY BY THE o iuun.v; JONEER PUBLISHING COMPANY .

I can buy Just as good things in Bemidji as T can in my home in Minne- apolis. And they have such fine variety, too. The prices are just as low, if not lower than the larger city prices.” 1 +.Our merchants are a progressive lot and deserve the confidence of the people in this community. and it is no flivver job.—Journal Press. _ 'When we_ hear statements of the kind above cited, e we begin to more fully realize that Bemidji'is s RN f————13 - leader in the merchandising business. * .
