Movement Among Property
owners to Improve the
Streets Of the City.

A petition will probably be
presented to the council tonight
by the residents of Bemidji ave
nue. praying for the establish.
ment Of boulevard lines on each
side of the avenue. It is thought
that a boulevard of about sixteen
feet in width will leave ample
road way while such a boulevard
would greatly improve the looks
of the street. When the line is
once established by the council
it is probably that nearly all the
property owners will put the
boulevard in at once.
Similar Improvements areplan-
ned by the residents of other
parts of the city.
