sion of the Nebraska Cornhuskers to-
morrow. This will be the initial Mis-
souri, Valley game for the Aggies and
they will exert every effort to make it
winner.
The status of the Lowman eleven as
great defensive machine was estab-
lished in the Normal battle when they
| held that team within the Aggfes' 30
yard line. Throughout the whole Of
the contest the Normalties were on the

A Greater Bemidii.

1t was surely encouraging to those
who are most interested in the pro-
gress and welfare Of Bemidji to have
such a large attendance at the Irving
meeting of yesterday afternoon. The
Commercial club rooms were COM
pletely filled with citizens of the city,
every business, trade and occupation
being represented. It demonstrated
that there is not a business man in
Bemidji who is not willing to take
Off his coat and work for anything
which he believes will be of benefit
to the city. The talk of Mr.. Irving
has already had it's effects, and he
spoke the truth when he said that
should the Commercial club not ac-
cept his membership. campaign pro-
position that the city would profit
anyway. He brought out and i'm
pressed the idea that without organi-
cation, cooperation and a tendency
to go after things, a city is sure to
be left behind. These are three of
the things which have made Be-
midi the progressive little city that
1T is today, and with added energy
and enthusiasm, it's future growth
and progress is assured.

is sure to bring grief to some Bemidji

method of doing away with the habit,
when by just a little effort on the

entirely eradicated. 1t is a matter
which causes every automobile own
