NEW SOUTH ROAD FOR
CITY ALSO MENTIONED

When friends of Martin Kjolhaug
and F. A. Norquist attempted to ring
excitement into the village cleo
Stion by placing these two on the
ticket for president Of the village
council, the outcome proved quite
contrary to the we'll laid plans of
the plotters.
b. Neither candidate did any work in
behalf of his own campaign and the
matter of selecting a president was
left entirely to the voters. The con-
test was friendly affair, in fact: so
friendsly tina the two candidates
came together and agreed that who
ever won should celebrate the VIC
tory with "feed" for the loser.
Mr.. Norquist was returned win
-ner by a scant margin of eight votes.
He made good on the agreement
Monday evening when he gave ban
"quet for the new and retirinf men,
bers of the council at the ,Gonvick
.hotel. Following the banquet the
new council organized at short ses-
sion at the First National Bank at
which they discussed plans for a
number of noteworthy improvements
during the coming year. Among the
improvements planned was the open
ing of new streets, crawling the
main thoroughfare; installation Of a
white way together with traffic
guide post and protection for the
village from fire and an organized
fire department.

There is positively no "let-up'' in
the efforts Of the Gonvick Commun-
ity club to do things for the town
and vicinity. Not content with hav-
ing put across several important
propositions within the last three
weeks, We club came right back at
Ia special meeting Wednesday even
ing and took preliminary steps to-
ward building a community hospital.
1t required but few minutes for
the organization to reach its deci-
sion to support the proposition after
DR.. Stevens, local physician, and
others had explained the need and
value Of a hospital in Gonvick.
Some twenty odd enthusiastic
members were present and pledged
$4,000 .as the beginning Of a fund
A committee was appointed to can
vas the village in an effort to secure
additional pledges for stock in cor
poration to be organized 1t a second
meeting called for Friday afternoon,
April 10th. At that time residents
in the surrounding country and
townspeOple will join together and
complete plans outlined at the nrst
meeting.
The loan is to build cottage hos
pital, modern in every respect. such
as is recommended for places like
Gonvick and which are being built in
many communities throughout the
United States. The building will
cost in the neighborhood of $4,000,
it is estimated.
Other matters up for consideration
by the club at this meeting, was the
highway running around the west
shore of Pine Lake, and leading into
town from the south. It is in a de-
plorable condit and prevents
many settlers from coming here with
their products and for their supplies
during the wet period Of the year.
This was referred to the good-roads
committee who will take the matter
