~" TO SUMMER GUESTS

Bemidji is going to take, better
care Of IS summer visitors next sea
son. It is going to furnish more
entertainment and more conveniences
if plans formed by the Bemidji Com
mercial club are carried out.
At a meeting of the Commercial

provement committee, of which Dr.
G. NJ. Palmer is chairman, was
named to correspond with summer
visitors and ascertain their desires.
The committee will also make plans
for ~" -: ST. = @s>.7 :

The construction of docks at
various points around Lake Be-
midi;
Better roads around Lake Be-
midi and to other lakes near

for summer resOrters and Be-
midi people;
More accommodations for

GUS points on the lake;

of the lake.
That action is necessary for thu
benefit of the summer visitors was
pointed out by H. E. Reynolds OF
the firm of Reynolds & Winter HI
stated that there are SO cottages oc
cupied on Lake Bemidji, and thai
the summer business in this distric
amounted to nearly $4,000 sea
son.
The club appointed the industrial

Scheme is Simple.

Ill VIC wv VI Illc ldCL LLdL Lllc park,
as already existing, is so naturally
beautiful in the splendid growth of
trees and fine outlook over the lake,
we have endeavored in working out
the general plan to keep the scheme
just as simple and free from any for
mality as is possible. An informal
drive is shown extending around the
borders of the park, thus opening up
fts beauties to vehicular traffic. Path
('connections have also been shown
from the entrance and from the con-
nections with the normal school
grounds, widening through the trees
and extending to various points of
interest. We have tried to keep as
few paths as is practical, it being the
idea that the roads can also be util
lied and in fact portion of these
could be natural trails through the
woods in all locations where feasible.
Dock Facilities.
1--WE would call your attention to
the fact that in the development of
this park, it is undoubtedly true that
as it becomes a point of interest to
the residents of your city, it will
be advisable to provide dock facili-
ties so that an approach to the park
can be made by persons coming with
canoes, row boats, or even launches.
ION the north shore, where such
splendid beach is available and the
water is so shallow, we have suggest
ed that provisions be made for bath
ing and if so desired, dressing rooms
can be provided for this purpose.
I'm view of the sightliness Of the
location of the extreme point of land,
we have chosen this point, in our
Sscheme as a possibility of strong de-
velopment, and using this as a focal
point in the entire scheme. At such
time as your council might feel
that the expenditure is warranted,
splendid architectural feature could
be worked out at this point, using
parapet wall to act as a protection
and also to serve as an outlook over
the entire lake.
Construct Band Stand.
"A band stand could be constructed
at this point and seats provided to
make provision for the crowds that
this point. Such an architectural
development at this location would
not only serve as most interesting
~teature IN the development OIL the
bark itself, but would also be most
attractive and serve as a land mark
in it's appearance from the lake. The
space to the west could be utilized
for parking automobiles.
: 1.-THE central portion Of the, park
is given up to general ecreation and
for picnics and It is our idea that
such playground apparatus as might
be installed from time to time, could
be scattered Informally in the woods
and thus prevent any, bare play
ground space being necessary

Acting under instructions of the

A. copy of the plans was printed in
the Pioneer week ago.

Mon day, the architects submitted a
report, parts of which are as follows:
Parks are United.
~, In order that you may see the
ssrelatiOn of the scheme to that of the
RSstudy for the normal school grounds,
we have incorporated both the sur
vey and general plan of the normal
school grounds. In working out the
general scheme we have taken into
consideration the advisability Of serv-
ing the individual needs of the city
park, as a unit, and yet to combine
and unite the entire scheme with
that of the normal school grounds
For instance, while one of the drives
extending through the normal school
grounds, unites. and forms a. part of
the system of drives in the city park,
q separate entrance is made to the
city park at the assumed terminal of
Doud avenue. We understand that
this point where Doud avenue turns,
has not been definitely determined
upon. r--s,--->s.. 81. ,.--,,r w..
