PROVE PROFITABLE IN GRAND FORKS
+. D. Cameron Makes Public Several Letters Which Indi-
cate Fact That Others Cities have Made Good-They
Contend that Local Conditions are Favorable.

That a curling rink in Grand Forks

. From Mayor Waugh.
Mayor Waugh of Winnipeg writes:
Buildings such as you project may
be found in every little town land

WANT
AGAINST FIRES
Systematic Publicity Cam
paign by Local Clubs is
Also Urged.

The resolutions adopted by the Fed
Grafton Of Commercial Clubs today
follow:
Resolved. That the attention Of the
members be called to the gross iniquity
in the present method of discrimina-
ton in the matter Of freight tariffs
in favor Of the great terminals, and
the injustice which this practice en-
tails on the people of this state: and
that all members be urged to devote
their attention to this subject. to the
united action for the remedy Of these
conditions.
That there be urged on the MEM
bers the importance Of a Systematic
campaign for the prevention Of fires,
and that. all clubs be urged to secure
the distribution of information on
corning methods of construction, dis
position Of refuse, abundance and
availability Of water supply, and other
facts relating to this important SUBJ
ject.
That the efforts of the federation
be devoted to the systematization Of
publicity work pertaining to the gen.
eral development Of the state, in order
that each community may receive its
full share of the benefit of the general
publicity work performed, and that
all money expended on this work may
be expended in the most effective
manner.
We would suggest that each Com
mercial club in the state belonging to
the federation be requested to furnish
in pamphlet or book form the most
effective data regarding their imme-
date vicinities, and furnish such
pamphlets or booklets to the secretary
of.the federation at such time as re-
quested and in such quantities as may
seem best to all concerned, that the
secretary may have advertising mat
ter from all portions Of the state for
general distribution at any time in any
other state which the executive COM
mittee may determine is good terri
tory to secure prospective settlers.
That no subject is more worthy Of
the attention of our members than
that of taxation, and that an effort be
made to secure the careful and intel
ligent study Of this subject by all the
members of this federation.
That a vigorous campaign be set
on foot for enlarged membership, in
order that the state at large may be
benefited from the cooperation Of its
Commercial clubs in the ame manner
community benefits from the cooper
alton of its citizens.
That for the promotion Of thi.
movement We appeal to the press OF
the state, and that as one means OF
securing the general cooperation OF
the newspapers we recommend thai
arrangements be made, If possible, 70,
the presentation Of the work Of the
federation to the editors of the state
at the meeting Of the North Dakota
Press association at Grand Forks IL
July.
That we advise that the recon.
mendations contained in the annua
report Of the president be adopted, a.
a whole. (Signed)

The university committee in charge
Of arrangements for the annual state
interscholastic track and field meet,
which will ltake place here next May,
is busy sending out letters to high
schools in Minnesota asking il they
are willing to send teams to the meet
this spring. If satisfactory arrange
ments can be made the meet will be
made an interstate affair. 1t will still
be called the North Dakota Inter-
scholastic meet. but schools in the
nearby states will be eligible to take
part. The idea in admitting schools
outside of North Dakota is to increase
the interest in the affair and to Sc
cure better attendance. OF course
there will be a North Dakota banner
and medals for contestants here. bur
the other schools will be allowed to
compete only for the interstate ban
ner and medals.
If the schools in Minnesota are ad-
mitted it is known definitely that at
least two will enter the meet this
year. The new plan would not prob
ably work very we'll this spring. but
inside of two or three years it is likely
that a large number will enter from

W. 9. Porter, secretary Of the Port
age la Prairie Curling club Manitoba,
writes:
In Portage we built our rink by
selling shares al $40. each. OF course
a curling rink is not So profitable as a
combination rink. but We managed to
pay all our expenses and turn over
$500 each year to the rink company"
This is a building with five Kinks
which cost, including the lot, less than
$5.O00.s
Duluth situation.
n. o. .McGregor. secretary Of the
Duluth Curling. club writes:
"A You may know, Duluth has had
a curling club for a number Of years,
and 1t has been an unqualified success.
We are now engaged in the erection of
a $4,000 curling club building, which
We expect to occupy with the begin
ming Of the coming curling season.
Prior to this year we have been hous-
ed in a wooden building on leased
land, which did us for a number of
years."
Our present method Of financing
our proposition, il having a number of
our members take second mortgage
bonds drawing 6 per cent interest and
secured by a second mortgage on all
the club property. Within a very few
years every note was retired as agreed
upon"
II find that our building was some
800 feet by 20, divided into two por-
lions Of 140 feet each with a go FOOT
waiting room in the middle. This was
quilt some years ago and / have not
been able to ascertain the cost but
think that probably around $1,000 was
the price paid them"
These statements go to show that
the enterprise Is profitable in dollars
and cents. and to have a first class
curling rink Is a big asset to any city.
