Over so; Big Slaughter is Ex-
pected in 1916.
CUPID'S "DUM-DUMS" FAIL
TO TOUCH CITY'S LEADERS
All Sorts and Description; Old Men !;
Men Who Have Never Worked
and Never Will Have To.

A report from our special Leap
Year staff correspondent shows that
there are more than fifty eligible
bachelors in Bemidji. What a
slaughter" there will be.
Homes for All.
Think of it, girls. A half hum
dred unattached male human beings
and not one of them who couldn't
maintain a home nice enough for
anyone.
Fifty unwifed spenders, who give
all their time to their business, their
clubs and their fellowmen. The sell
fish things.
Suits All Tastes.
For the Bemidji girls who would
take advantage of the seasons priv
ileges the list of famous Bemidji
bachelors includes ''something to
suit every taste," as they say at the
stores. Many of the best known
men in the country, we might even
say, state without stretching it very
much, are running around this city
"heartwhOle and fancy-free.''
Some County Officials.
Some of the leading county Off
cials are still untouched by Cupid's
"dum dums." With them are
number of other popular men in va
rious walks of life. A banker or
two are still loose and a large num-
ber of business and professional men
might be had for the asking. Then
there are doctors and lawyers; den-
lists and merchants and bakers, "old
men" about town, men who never
worked and never will have to. Oh,
girls, there is surely something in
the list to suit you.
