The time was short and the men were busy men. _ They served withqut pay. They did what they were instructed to do. They made t!]exr report and it was up to the associa- Hl tion to either accept or reject the report. 8 The committee was entitled to at least i that courtesy. k & As it happened the report was neither accepted nor‘rejected, but on the tontray the committee was subjected to more or less embarrassment, by being pitted against another committee from the north end, which has made a most comprehens- ive study of the division proposition. ! * By accepting and filing the report we | _ do not mean that it should or should not i have been endorsed, but the custom in any well governed or regulated organization is to accepi or.reject the report and discharge the committee with a vote of thanks. We are blaming no individual. We were . there and had a right to take part in the A deliberations, but as an organization of “fair-minded men and women the commit- ! .. .tee had a right to expect some action from i +..the body which appointed them and re- quested them to make a report. That an apology is due this committee is self evident and it should be forth com- «ing-at the next regular meeting of the as- ociation. ¥ §———§ COUNTY DIVISION « The question now is: Do we want coun- ty division or don’t we? The answer is: If “it is for'the best interests of all the people ) of the county to divide, of course we want o'ty vote for division; if it isn’t for the best isowiinterest of the majority of the people we ~want to vote against division. ‘ was In order to enlighten those who have made no study whatever of the proposition jressmewe encourage them to read the county div- ision and anti-county division _advertise- - .ments that are to appear in the Pioneer, as . well as all the literature and maps now be- i ““ing circulated. / {31 The vital issue, the one big issue that - —eoncerns -all taxpayers, are the taxes. If H i —®) THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER county division will increase taxes, it is. better to wait, because we now are burd- ened with taxes a plenty. If county division will lighten the tax-burden the thing to do is to vote in favor of county‘division. In'the meantime, between noew and elec- tion day, it is up to you Mr. and Mrs. Voter to make a. careful study of the question. Ask all the questions you can think of and gather all the information you can, so that den, " §—4 A Chicago Daily is giving.a Ford a day ' _for a month to_ the one sending in the best’ : news item, the item containing the most; ! human interest. Among the stories along” every conceivable line, one printed the other day brought to light that over in the poorer section of down-town Chicago is | an old woman.who begs for the sole pur- pose of investing her gifts in milk for stray cats. That is her hobby. She feeds them along the street, in empty lots, in her hum- ble homeg sometimes remaining at the task until after midnight. In the course of a year she feeds thousands upon thousands of forlorn cats, but that is not the point. She loves cats, stray cats best of all, and has given her life in their behalf. As a sideline she picks up stray bits of paper that careless citizens have dropped; she cleans out untidy drinking fountains. These are her lesser hobbies. Of course she is “queer”, folks say she is. Maybe so— | queer because no one else has ever thought of doing what she does. But to our notion it is a very charming sort of queerness—a sort of Christlike obsession. We strongly suspect that heaven is pretty well popula- ted with “queer” people. Anyhow, the story is captivating, and the man who un- earthed it should have something better than a Ford—a Rolls-Royce, for instance. §g——8§ 2 TRAVEL ACCIDENT INSURANCE With this issue of the Pioneer is made the first announcement of the Pioneer’s Travel Accident Insurance Policy. It is now possible for readers of this paper to secure travel protection at a cost of secen- ty five cents. The policy value is $1,000 the first year and increases in value up to the fifth year, after which time it is worth $1500. The cost-to readers is seventy-five cents a year. . “It is so cheap, you cannot afford to be without it” is the way one prominent bus- iness man put it and we most heartily agree with him. We invite you to read the two separate page which' outline in detail the plan, under , which this most advantag- eous offer is made. s 1 , . CANCELATION NOT FAVORED , There'is yet to be found in the Harding administration a single-official advocating cancelation of the allied debts to the Uni- ted States.
