BIG CELEBRATION
IS PLANNED FOR
RONDO OPENING
Merchants in District to Hold
Festivities on Completion
q of Paving
BUSINESS LEAGUE TO
SEEK CAR EXTENSION
Cooperation of Public Asked to
Assist in Plan; Date TO Be
Given Later

The st. Paul Negro Business Lea
que again comes to the front with a
plan to celebrate the opening Of Ron
do street which will soon be paved,
the work now being in process. The
realization that the paving of Rondo
street opens a new throfare for the
extension of race commercial activ-
tiles and the possibilities of securing
an interurban line over the present
system prompts the local business
men to further the project. The
plan is well underway to connect
st. Paul and Minneapolis by the
Rondo route and the project is ex-
pected to work out advantageously.
Commercial District
Rondo street is rapidly becoming
the bulkwark Of the races CONNER
cial activities and the paving from
Western avenue to Dale street great
ly augments the established program.
The plan now being considered Is
to have q grand celebration on the
opening of the street for travel. A
pavement dance is a portion OF the
arrangements, together with bands,
and parade of representatives of the
business houses In that district.
Full particulars of the tentative
objective have not been made as yet,
but 1t is predicted, by the Business
League, that great time will be had
on the occasion.
Public Support Urged
Public support is urged by the
local body in order that q great dis
play may be had by the merchants
of the Rondo street district. With
the necessary cooperation this can
be made a great occasion.
The paving project was largely the
efforts of the local Business League
after they saw the deplorable con-
dition of the thorofsre. A letter was
sent to the board of commissioners
stating the conditions and the paving
project was soon began.

Thanks for Support Re-

Mr.. Owen Howell, Publisher of the

contemplated merger of the Bulletin

tions by Mrs. Adina Gibbs between
the two papers. She realized of the
need of closer cooperation for mu-
tai benefits and that a merger of the
two interests would, without doubt
prove advantageous for all parties
concerned.
Particulars have not, as yet, been
concluded but indications point to a
successful combination, which grew
out Of the interest taken in the two
publications by Mrs. Adina Gibbs and
the consistency of her efforts to
bring about mutual understanding.
This is the last issue of this paper
as the Northwestern Bulletin. The
next issue will be the Bulletin-Ap-
peal.

on the contemplated merger says:
