The Her- ald, Duluth’s great daily points out the need editonal_ly that. Duluth should give more attentign to the tourist problem, by advertising its advantages to summer tour- ists. ) ~We do hope Duluth will become so aroused about this great tourist crop that it will enter into the adver- tising game of securing summer tourists, as only Duluth can. Minnesota needs the help of every community that has a right to boast of being a summer resort, and that’s practically every community in the state, We admit that, next to Bemidji, Duluth has the rigth to proclaim to the world its superior advantages ag .America’s finest summer playground and it is most welcome news to know that Duluth is begihning to recognize the fact that there are other crops than ice and ore. We need your pulling powers, Duluth. We know your strength and know also that when you tackle a job in earnest, nothing but success is the result. In conclusion the Herald says: Duluth -has every attraction that any place has, and it has attractions in greater number and variety than are gathered-in any other single place. “It has first, a genial summer climate, with agreeable days and agreeable nights. It has heat enough in the day, but is cool at night, when the nearby lake moder- ates the heat of the day. It is the gateway to a vast empire of wonderful outing possibilities, from Lake Superior with its marvelous Isle Royale.to any one of a thousand lakes that can be reached from here. It hms, reaching most of this empire, good roads for automo- es, _“Duluth knows it, The growing hord of summer visit- ors shows that other people are coming to know it, largely though, through no fault of ours. - If people all over the country could know it, the stream of summer Visitors' could be multiplied by ten over night. . “Duluth should give greater attention to. this largely neglected asset. It should immediately provide great- er-and better hotel facilities. Then it should advertise to the world that here is the greatest outing empire, the most joyous summer playground in the world. <“Money thus invested will pay. richer dividends-than any other single enterprise Duluth could embark upon.” CIGARETTES AND MOONSHINE In Bemidji it is the use of cigarettes and tobacco that is troubling the school board, while in St. Cloud, charges have been made that the boys are carrying moonshine on the hip. The Journal Press suggests, that if such lamentable conditions exist the school board and- city authorities should take notice of it and put a stop to this violation of law. Just what cooperation the school board is receiving from parents, grownups and officials of the city in Be- midjiis not fully known, but it is a certainty that no par- ent wants his boy to become an early smoker. If charges are true in either even in Bemidji,, although we have heard none with regard to “moonshine” drastic steps should be taken to remedy matters. This is your job and mine, Mr. and Mrs. Citizen and we should be most willing to extend every cooperation. It will be ap- preciated by the superintendent, the board and by the boys in years to come. % P. 0. DEFICIT OUT IN 1924 The record of the postoffice department under the Harding administration is a remarkable illustration of “more business in government.” For the Fiscal year ending June 30, 1921, the postal revenues failed to meet the postal expenditures by $130,000,000. For the year ending June 30, 1922 the deficit was $64,000,000. For the present fiscal year to_the end of June 30, 1923 there will be an estimated deficit of only $31,000,000, and for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1924 it is expected that all the deficits will be wiped out, and a surplus of $952,000. shown. iy [ S —] A DESTRUCTIVE DOCTRINE The principal defense in the Herrin murder trials is that killings were justifiable hiomicides.

This indicates that the average person gives more thought to the future than is generally believed. 'At that, it’s not half enough. .
