Will Have Fine Fair Senator D. M. Gunn of Grand Rap- ids was in the city last evening on his way to the Twin cities. He says that Itasca county will have a good fair this year, September 23 to ‘25 inclusive.. This will be the eighteenth annual county fair for that division of the state. The senator says that a splendid showing of agricultural products and live stock and dairy pro- ducts will be made, and that the special program of horse racing and other attractions will be the best ever seen in Grand Rapids.—News Tribune. "IN THE LAND OF THE BALGAM- FIR” (Continued from first page) says, “though they represent a great wealth, are like the logs in the river, leaving the country. Only in the first foot of soil is there an abiding in- dustry.” And he is right. Today the great mine and lumber interests of the north loom big before the world. But, when the last whistle shall be blown in the great mills and the last log disappears around the bend of the tiver; when the great hoists shall make their last dips into the bowels of the earth, and the thunder of the last ore train dies away on the hills of Duluth, agriculture will still be there taking on new life and worth; coming to its own over the desola- tion of mines and forests, and shall like Campbell’s hope, ‘“O’er the ruins smiles And light her torch at Natures’, filneral pile.” Fair Week Price on Lumber As there will be a large influx of visitors from the county to visit-the fair, we are making a liberal reduc- tion in lumber prices and invite you to call and let us give you an esti- mate on any lumber you may need. During the fair only, we will sell good sheeting lumber at $16 per 1,000 dimension stuff at $18 and ship- lap at $18. All other lumber will be sold at a liberal reduction.—City Lumber Co. Funeral of James Everton. The funeral of James Everton last Sunday was one of the largest pro- cessions of the kind the village ever wittnessed. The Methodist church was filled, and Pastor Boyle preach- ed a touching sermon on the “Good Soldier.” There was a modest dis- play of flowers mingling with the country’s flag draped about the bier, and four comvades gray, with forms erect and firm step bore the remains to the depot followed by old friends making a column four and five abreast two blocks long. The choir and solo singing was impressive. Many accompanied the remains to Grand Rapids where the same day interment was made in Soldiers’ cemetery. The News joins feelingly, fully in! the wave of sympathy extended the heart-broken widow and feels with her and her children that the depar- ture of “Uncle Jim” to his reward, though expected, makes a vacancy in the circle of the older inhabitants that time cannot fill. May his ashes rest in peace and his sole endear to the Kingdom.—Deer River News. Our Industrial Number. The Grand Rapids Herald-Review is planning an Itasca county Indus- trial number. The field could be no ‘|better, and time for such an enter- prise is ripe.—Bovey Iron News. Additional Locals. Rey. C. V. Bowman of Minneapolis, will speak at the Swedish Lutheran church, Friday evening September 24, at 7:30 o’clock. All are invited to attend. Attorney C. L. Pratt and little son Robert, returned from Minneapolis, Tuesday, where they were in attend- ance at the funeral of a little niece of Mr. Pratt’s. A little lady arrived at the R. J. Guile home Monday evening, Septem- ber 13, and proposes to remain for some time. When born she tipped the beam at twelve and _ one-half pounds and when Mr. Guile drove in town Tuesday it could readily be seer that an event of great importance nad occured. Frank, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Loi- selle, of Deer River, was brought to Grand Rapids Monday afternoon with a broken leg. It seems that he, in company with other boys, was play- ing on the school grounds at Deer River and fell over a pile of boards, falling in such a manner as to break his leg. He is at St. Benedict’s hospital and is getting along very nicely, The Grand Rapids band gave their last open air concert for the season last Thursday evening. The band gave a concert each Thursday even- ing during the summer afd they were very much enjoyed by all. The Grand Rapids band under the leader- ship of A. L. Roecker enjoys the dis- tinction of being one of the best bands in the northern part of the state and all take great interest in its' progress. | OFFICIAL OF THE BOARD SCHOOL DIRECTORS DISTRICT NO. 1 ITASCA COUNTY, MINN.
