Is Boosting Spirit.
Never before in the history of this
city have the business men and citi-
zens entered into the spirit of the
occasion as is apparent on the streets
today. Where they cannot come in
person., they have arranged to hire
some one in their places. Others
have offered the use of, their cars,
while some who are unable to work
have offered cash donations.
1t is understood that some of the
farmers in the vicinity of Bemidji
expect to be on hand with teams and
wagons to join forces with the men
from town, and the predictions are
that when the sun sinks in the west
tomorrow evening, the roads leading
into the city and around the lake
will be in better shape than they
have ever been before
| Remember the Hour.
| Every community has it's forgetful
persons among them and Bemidji is
no exception. For the benefit of
those who might be so inclined, we
again impress upon you the time,
the place and the "Girl," City Hall,
8 O'Clock, Tuesday morning, June %.
Be there with your lunch, your show
Ell, pick or ak and ready to do a days
| work You'll have more fun play
ing the road game than you've had in
many months.
Another opportunity you have
working for good roads is that you
may choose your own boss out of the
five or six. Some like Lord better
than Black. Take it in Gene Ber-
mans case; he says he wouldn't
work under Black on bet, while a
dozen others wouldn't work under
lanybody else. Then there's John
Moberg They say he's some boss.
but when it comes to bossing, he's
got nothing on Bob Lord.
Take Your Choice.
If you don't like any OF, those men
toned, Dan Oracle, Yves Wright or
w. G. Schroeder might be able to
use you. They say Oracle is the sa-
/ fest man to work for, because il you
don't work hard enough under
Schroeder or Wright they might give
you a thrashing. Whatever you do,
Ishow up at o'clock. There'l be
200 automobiles waiting to take you
out.
