These huge figures of steel and concrete
built on the shore of Lake Bemidji are em-
blematical of the days of the early lumber-
jack who originated lumbercamp whoppers of
Paul and Babe that have been handed down
for generations. These stories, never heard
outside the haunts of the lumberjack until
recent years, are declared by some literary
authorities to be "the only true American
myth."
