The Sanitary Grocery

We wish to state to the peo-
pie of Bottineau and vicinity,
our object in starting "a first
class exclusive grocery store.
In the first place we find i'll all
the large cities, nearly all the
groceries are sold in exclusive
groceries stores. There are
many reasons for this. The
first is because a store where
nothing but groceries are sold,
can more easily be kept in a
clean, sanitary condition.; where
on the other hand il is next to
impossible to keep a grocery
department in department
store in any kind of condition,
where shoes, hats, dry goods
and every thing else are thrown
together in the same room.

AUTO CLUB IMPROVES ROAD
About Twenty Members of Club Did
Good Work With Pick and Shovel

On Wednesday afternoon the
newly formed Bottineau auto
mobile club demonstrated that
there was real purpose behind
their good roads slogan when
about twenty members and a
few other good citizens turned
out to do some road improve
ment between here and the
foothills on the Metigoshe road.
This stretch of road was very
stony and there were couple
of culverts that were in pretty
bad shape but although the
hands that grasped the picks
and shovels were little soft
for the work good results were
accomplished. The rocks were
removed from nearly three
miles of road and earth and
sand hauled to fill the holes
and grade II p the culverts.
Aside from a few blisters and a
little tired feeling the workers
enjoyed the trip.
1t is the purpose of the club
to attend to other bad stretches
of the road in a like manner.

COM MERcIAL cL U B
Efforts Made Toward Re- organization
Have Been Successful
Important Meeting TONIGHT
Plans For the Revival of The Club
will be Discussed This
Evening at Eight

The meeting held at the city
hall last Friday evening proved
conclusively that the Bottineau
Commercial club can come
back" The committee ap-
pointed to collect back dues in
order to clean the slate' be-
fore soliciting new members
reported success in their work
and with all the old bills out of
the way there is nothing to
prevent the securing of new
members, the building up of
an active organization and the
realization of live, active
commercial club.
= A meeting will be held this
evening at s o'clock for the
purpose of electing officers and
considering questions touch
ing the building up of a bigger
organization. 1t is likely a
substantial reduction will be
made in the amount of dues as
ain induCement to secure new
members. Every citizen who
desires to see Bottineau make
the most of her opportunities
should attend this meeting and
take part in the discussions.
