occasion, and the event promises
to be one of much pleasure for

will be given before the dance.

public is cordially invited to attend.
AS soon as it gets a trifle warmer
the popular Oxfords will begin
making their appearance. and

he pays no attention to the grand.

| ASK FOR ORDINANCE
Wemsn's Civic Club Wants the
Council to Pass Garbage
Can Measure.

Little business of importance
came before the city fathers for
consideration at the segular meet
ing held Monday night.
The regular monthly bills were
allowed after having been audited
by the various committees.
A communication from the Wo-
mems Civic Club was presented,
urging the council to pass aa or
dinance ordering private ash pits
and garbage cans installed in the
rear of every residence and every
business house in town. and pro-
viding penalty for failure to use
them for the purpose for which
they would be intended. The
petition was taken under advise
ment by the council.
The passage of such an Or
dinance would of course carry with
it the necessity of a city scavenger
to collect the garbage ard haul it
away. but it is believed that some
one who has use for the refuse
matter would be willing to serve
without remuneration.
The Civic Club also asked the
passage of an ordinance forbidding
the hitching of teams OH Main
street, and authorized the con-
struction of hitch racks at some
suitable place for such purpose.
No action was taken On this mat
tor, but both requests of the club
seemed to meet with the favor of
the members Of the council.
Fresh Bros, who are drilling
the citys auxiliary we'll. were au-
thorized to case the we'll os they
deemed necessary as the drilling
progressed.
q. N. Houston, the Denver civil
engineer, was appointed supervisor
Of the construction work on the
sewer repair work to be done by
contractor McCade. Mr.. McCade
informed the council he will be
ready'to begin work on the sewer
within a week.

JUST FOR WOMEN
WOMAN RISK AGENT WINS.
Pretty Cora Gustafson, Only Female
Insurance Solicitor, Triumphs
Over 24O Men.
TWO BEM1DJ1 POLICIES $4,000.


Miss Cora Gustison, probably the
only woman life insurance solicitor
in the country, certainly the only one
in the Northwest, is in Bemidji catch
ing. fish and incidentally writing as
many or more insurance policies than
any of the 24O agents working out Of
the Fargo Office, from which Miss
Gustison is assigned "a.
Miss Gustison admits her VOC
alton is unique and adds, with a
twinkle of her big blue eyes that
would make miser look upon life
insurance as luxury 1T gets me
the money and just love the work. !"
And Miss Gustison has the re-
cords to show that she delivers the
goods. During the few days she has
whiled away the time in Bemidji
she has written several thousand
dollars worth of insurance.: Thomas
Mccain, signing up for 100000; e.
e. Chamberlain for $3.0O0rand others
for varying amounts.
Not so long ago, Miss Gustison
topped the list of all the agents for
the amount of insurance written.
At Grand Forks, she wrote a $4,000
single policy for Oscar Knutson,
manager of the Columbia Hotel.
Her banner month was when she
wrote total CT $4,000.
do you always find the work con-
gsnial?" she was asked
"a Most always" she replied. "Near-
ly all the men are perfectly lovely,
although, of course, now and then ]
run across a brute. Not long ago
heard preacher criticize women
for entering the business world, but
I believe that when l get men to take
out insurance policies and thus, when
they die, keep their widows from
geing to the wash tubs, that / am
doing just as much of missionary
work as the preachers
Miss Gustison sort of drifted into
the insurance work. She lived in
Minneapolis for two years, taught
music and now and then sold a piano
This was after she had borrowed
money to go to school at Rock Island
Finally she became associated with
the Stoddard, Lecture Course and IS
months ago, while in Kansas City,
received az letter from friend in
Fargo urging her to try the insurance
work. More as vacation than any,
thing else, she accepted and, can
wasting Grand Forks, cleared SIS
from September 10 to October /.
Sand l had never seen an : in
surance policy" smiled Miss Gustison.
This good showing caused her to
be appointed special representative
to work wherever she will in North
Dakota or northwestern Minnesota
She plans on remaining in Bemidji
indefinitely but may spend July and
August in Canada.
