FAIR COMMITTEE PLANS
HIGH CLASS FEATURES
Indications Are That Program
at Fair This Year Will
Surpass All Others

Already the great Northern Mime
sofa Fair for next August is receiving
attention at the hands of the commit
tee, in charge of sports, entertain
ment, concessions, races, etc.
C. w. Jewett, chairman of this COM
mittee, called a. meeting of his men
Thursday afternoon, and plans for
the fair features were discussed and
outlined. -. a ..,1, .
=. Indications are that the program
will exceed that of last year from
practically every angle. Better horse
races and more of them are among the
features being considered.
The Northern Minnesota speedway
which is considered one of the best
in the state, will be a drawing card to
horsemen far and near. The plan TO
get on one of the biggest and best
circuits of the northwest is the idea
of the committee and when this has
been decided upon, Bemidji may ex-
pect to see the best racing program
ever pulled off in this part Of the
northwest.
On the committee with Mr.. Jewett
are E. B. Berman, DR.. w. K. Deni-
son, and E.; H. Denu. New entertain
ment, something that has never been
featured before, which will be start
ling and thrilling in nature, may ne
secured for the Northern Minnesota
Fair, if plans of this committee ma
terialize.

State Adjutant Stafford King, will
result in the compilation OF Il national

will afford valuable information for
the Legion in its effort to be of serv-
ice to every sick, injured and uncm-
ployed veteran and every veteran who
has not received the benefits to which
he is entitled from the government.
According to Adjutant King, a
thorough canvass in the 10 congress

justment of thousands of unapproved
claims for compensation, vocational

like.
