Official Paper of Itasca County EDITORS’ MEET AT BEMIONI IN JUNE Annual Outing of Newspaper Men and Women of Northern Minnesota THREE DAYS OF REAL ENJOYMENT Interesting Program Prepared For June 13, 14 and 15, When the Editors of 47 Counties Will Forget Cares the as- This year the editors of Northern Minnesota Editorial sociation will meet at Bemidji and a program covering three days’ of pleasure trips, banquets, smok- ers and general entertainment has} been prepared by the committee in charge—mostly “Doc” Rutledge— and one of the best outings yet enjoyed is scheduled for June 13, 14 and 45. in his circular letter to the mem-| bers, Secretary Rutledge calls at- tention to past successful summer outings and says there is no doubt that the Bemidji meet, for genu- ine enjoyment. and for free-hand- ed hospitality, and profitable busi- ness discussion, will far surpass all previous affairs of the kind. The Bemidji Commercial Club is stand- ing back of the association, and nothing is being left undone that will further the success of this outing and add to the pleasure and comfort of those who participate. The program for the three days is a varied one. There will be mot- or boat trips amidst beautiful} scenes, where the waters teem with all varieties of gamy fish, and the shores are covered with stately pines and hardwood trees, eovered with a verdant foliage that “breathes” purest air which is ex- ceedingly invigorating and “drives dull care away.” Auto trips to up- to-ihe-minute farm homes, owned by progressive Northern Minneso- tans who will e of hospitality. “Smoker” and re- ception for the “men folks;” re- ception and entertainment for the ladies of the party. Sunday June] 45, will be the real “gala day” of the outing, when there will be a} special train that will convey *the} editors and their ladies to Redby, on the shores of Red Lake, for a ride on that reat “inland sea;"a wisit to the Red Lake Indian age where Red Lake Chippewas will give a war dance and hold a “pow- wow.” The train will return to Bemidji in ample time to make ctions with all outgoing trains Sunday night.

Schnei- der of Appleton, Wis., representing the International Brotherhood of Paper makers. It is further stated that conferences are now being held between the employes and the owners, and hopes are entertained that the situation will be adjusted without the necessity of a strike. When asked concerning the above A. C. Bossard, president of the Itasca Paper company, admitted that certain proposals made by the employes of the concern were under conSideration, but he evident ly did not anticipate any difficulty in reaching an agreement. The Itasca company never has had any trouble with its men, said Mr. Bos- sard, and he did not think that matters under discussion were suf- ficient to cause a break. Nearly all manufacturing plants are asked to make certain adjustments in working hours during the summer months, and the officials of local company do not believe that the talk’ of a strike correctly rep- resents the sentiments of their men. SCHOOL MEETING TO BE HELD SATURDAY Voters of School District No. 1 to Straighten Out Blackberry School Matter. Once in a very long while the Herald-Review gets something a trifle wrong,! and this unusual thing happened when we said in our last issue that there would be a special meeting on the 24th inst to settle the question of erecting a school house at Blackberry. Tne date should have been this coming Saturday—May 31. This matter is of considerable importance to the district at large, and particularly to the people of Blackberry, who need the proposed school building badly. The only draw back to its erection is that the board was only authorized to expend the sum of $4,500 for the purpose out of the district funds at the annual meeting last July, and this sum, added to the state’s $1,- 500., does not come within about $1000 of covering the cost of a building such as the board desires to put up and which is needed in the neighborhood. The school au- thorities want the verdict of the voters on the matter, and all should make it a point to attend.
