STEWART WILL RETIRE -
z3FROM ACTIVE BUSINESS:
MAY ENTER THE SERVICE

After July 27, Scott Stewart will
discontinue his grocery on Fourth
street, and although he says his plans
are not perfected, in all probability,
he will engage in war activities for
the government:
Mr.. Stewart has for the past sew
eral years been a prominent and IA
miliar figure in mercantile circles Of
Bemidji and his deciding to retire will
be regretted. He is the commanding
officer Of the Bemidji home guard
company and has been active in the
promotion Of the welfare of the state
and government during it's war pro-
gram. He has served in other mill
tary organizations and is a splendid
type of the military man and will
no doubt fill an important berth until
the close of the war.
