WHY ENGLAND FOLLOWED
GERMANS LEAD IN
SAVING DAYLIGHT
Will Orpet photographers III t'aas
(By United Press)

London, July 6.-About the only
objection to the recently adopted
daylight saving scheme now being
agitated in America was that it was
made in Germany. But England isn't
so touchy on that point as she used
to be- She has learned lots Of
things from Germany in the last two
years. Why, they even make Frank
furter sausages right here in London
these days, and serve them with Teu-
tonic-style potato salad and sauer-
kraut
Germany began robbing darkness
in favor Of daylight on May 1, by
setting all the clocks in the empire
ahead an hour Great Britain fol-
lowed by doing the same thing. On
October 1 the clocks will be turned
back again.
There is a yearly gain of 1855 hours
of useful daylight, equivalent to II

Might we offer the suggestion that
each town board in the state set aside
sufficient funds to hire a real main
tenance crew on the mostly Travelled
road in their district. Give the crew
the proper machinery and hold that
crew responsible for the proper up
keep of that particular road. Mind
you, they are not to put lick onto
any other road just the road they
are hired for. Under this system,
how long do you think it would be
before we had a fed travelable roads
in our beautiful state of 10000
lakes, with scenery that will equal
anything in the Northwest? -

THE SPEED MANIAC

All men should lift their feet and
kick against the cheerful lunatic,
who gives his car no end of power
and burns up sixty miles an hour.
We see him whiz by our abodes; we
meet him on the country roads; he
kills our geese and cats and dogs,
and spoils our Poland China hogs.
We are with terror stricken dumb,
when we behold the monster come,
save ourselves, till he goes by. He
scorches through the country towns
and runs the leading grocer down,
and scares the local merchant prince
and no regret does he evince. Then
comes a driver safe and sane, who
has not speed upon the brain; he am
bles by the village at fifteen modest
miles on hour. The villagers are
sad and sore; they've found speeding
is a bore, and now they're looking
for a goat; they seize the driver by
the throat and take him to the dun
geon keep, where he may gnash his
teeth and weep. They fine him
forty-seven wheels, with. trimmings
added, so he feels, when he's per-
mitted to withdraw, there surely
ought to be a law This happens
every day or three; the criminal too
oft goes free, while motorists who'd
not offend must pay the fiddler in

THAT 0DOR.

No, Bemidji is not in the vicinity
Of a slaughter house.
No, Mr.. Property Owner on Lake
Boulevard, you are mistaken, there
is no dumping ground in front of
your property, at least there should
not be.
The odor that you smell morning,
noon and night is from sea weed,
dead fish, etc., which has been pock-
eted along the lake shore by boat
houses.
Complaints are being made daily
by persons along Lake Boulevard on
account of the odor That it is un-
healthy is certain. Yet no action
has been taken.
Several weeks ago the city coun-
Gil ordered all Loaf houses removed.
Later this action was decided against
and the board of health was given
power to act.
Last year the city spent several
hundred dollars keeping the lake
shore clean near the boat houses so
as to get rid of that odor. The
city will have to spend the same
amount each year unless the boat
houses are removed or their owners
see that the shore near their house
is kept clean.
Some action must be taken imme-
diately. City authorities and the
board of health should get together
and find a remedy for this outrage to
property owners along Lake Boule-
ward.

WARNING!

Bathers, take heed to this warn
ing.
Yesterday several small boys mar
rowly escaped drowning when they
ventured to swim on the, south side
of Diamond Point. On the south
side of Diamond Point there is a deep
"step-off" and it is dangerous for a
poor swimmer to swim on this side
The proper place for bathing is north
of Diamond Point.
If every bather would take heed
to this warning Bemidji will go
through this season with a small
number of accidents.
Take heed!

ROAD MAINTENANCE.

What is road maintenance? We
think it this question were asked
every town board or board of county
commissioners in the state of Min
nesota we would probably have as
many different answers as there are
boards. We have interviewed several
and asked them why they did not
maintain their roads, and were; told
in almost every instance, that they
were maintaining their roads, and as
proof would show US spots here and
there where a load of gravel had
been dumped or where the road had
been newly graded for a short dis
lance. That isn't road maintenance;
that's road repairing.
The only place we know of in the
state where a systematic road main
tenance is employed is by the Auto
mobile Club Of Minneapolis on the
different near-town roads, and the
only place where they have really
employed a real system of mainten-
ance is on Lyndale avenue south, be-
yond the city limits, leading to the
Automobile Country club. OF course,
with it's limited amount of funds, it.
would be impossible to put road
maintenance crews on every road,
but the work they are doing on roads
other than Lyndale is worthy of very
favorable comment. AS a result of
the maintenance on Lyndale avenue
south, that road is the best ten-mile
stretch Of gravelled road in the state.
The club hires two teams, two driv-
ers and an extra man with full equip
ment and the business Of this crew

TORICAL SIGNIFICANCE

WASECA COUNTY
The Sioux waseca, or wa
sheca, has been defined as
"rich, especially in provi-
sions." The name was first
applied to the earliest farm
ing community in the county,
in 1855, probably on account
of the fertility of the soil,
and later was transferred to
the city which grew up near
the original settlement. The
county was given the same
name on it's establishment in
1857. The word is accented
on the second syllable, and
the "a's" are sounded as in

So it continued for nearly Two hours
after the regular lecture until all
We're satisfied and there was nothing
further to say. Then the speaker in
troduced Miss Anita Degan and Miss
Ethel Murphy as accompanist Miss
began sang the national anthem and
the entire audience joined in the
chorus.
The lecture was a plea for unity of
purpose and harmony OF capital and
| labor. The day Of strikes is almost
| over, the speaker said, and all matters
| in dispute are settled around the con
ference table. Capital has been edu-
Gated to the point Of realizing that
! labor was entitled to a fair wage and
| labor was educated to the fact that
| capital should receive recognition as
| means of employment.
The subject of Socialism was
brought in to prove that this was the
disturbing element in the industrial
situation as the Socialists We're intent
on tearing down and destroying in
stead of building up, for when the
sore was healed through the interven-
ton of conference committees, there
was no need for the presence of a
physician. With labor and capital
working in harmony the Socialist and
soap box orator was deprived Of his
job as demagogue.
When the Socialists say religion il
opposed to science, the speaker re
marked, they We're not familiar witt
the subject as all science was nurset
by the church and the leading inyen
tors were men Of deep Christian sen
timent. He cited over a score 0
names of men whose names are link
ed with the most advanced invention
to prove his point, and gave sketches o
their sincere Christianity. In pleading
for harmony and the burial of bitter
ness and sectional strife, Mr.. Collin
