Minneapolis, April l4.-So sturdy a
lad is j. F. A. Pietsch of Madison
Lake, and so hard has he studied to
become a yOeman i'll the United States
navy that the bureau of navigation
at Washington, according to advices
received here today. has waived rules
and precedent and the young man viii
become a yOeman despite the fact that
he is below the age limit.
The brother of. young Pietsch is
chief yoeman of the Yankton. This
inspired him to follow in the older
brothers path For two years he at
tended business college Feeling that
he was fully equipped to take up his
duties, he applied at the, navy re-
cruiting station, and Lieutenant C. S.
Macy was much pleased with his APP
pearance and accomplishments, But the
young man is only seventeen and the
minimum ageF.limit is. eighteen.
So much impressed was Lieutenant
Macy that he asked the bureau OF
navigation to waive the rule in the
case of the lad. The bureau did, and
today the lieutenant received the ia
vorable word which he will forward
to the boy.

Not Very Good Job; the WcrlSnen
Were Careless.

From, thursdays CaIiy.
While the city was laying some tile
on Main street the other day, the low
er end of some old four inch thing
that was laid years ago was uncov-
cred, and the water spurted out like
an artesian well, and continued to
run for an hour 1t appears that
when the city laid this tile, to drain
the road, those who laid it did not
know or care enough about doing a
good job to make an outlet for the
lower end of the tile The result
was that during all these years the
tile took rs much water as it could
hold and held it under the road City
Engineer Wilson has run il into the
gutter, so that it will be of service
in draining the road.
A little tile like this needs to bc
laid near the top of the Windmiller
hill, where spring has made the
road very bad. Farmers. driving all
the way from Madison Lake, do not
encounter nearly as bad place any
where along the road as at this point
within the city limits.
