Des Moines, June 23.--William Dem
mis-, Of Cedar Rapids, whose resigna-
ton as member Of the state board Of
parole was given out yesterday, was
appointed by Governor Clarke to sue
coed w. III. Berry, of Indianola, July
1. 1915. His resignation takes effect
July Of this year, so that he has only
served one year of a six-year appoint
ment. Mr.. Dennis stated in his letter
of resignation that he wished to give
more time to his law practice and that
he did not realize when he took up
the parole board work that he would
have so little time at home. Ia
F. F. Faville, of Storm Lake, who
has been appointed to succeed Mr..
Dennis, was formerly United States
district attorney for the northern
Iowa district and is recognized as one
of the leading lawyers of north
western Iowa. Governor Clarke stated
yesterday that he considered the state

Members Of the board of parole are
paid $40 per day for the days the
board is in session. If the board we're
in session fifty.two weeks out of the
year the compensation would only
amount to $500. The salary is there
fore but little incentive to the class
Of men who make up the board.
During the past year the board has
enlarged it's work somewhat by max
ing it rule to examine every man ad-
mitted to the prisons. of the state as
soon after commitment as possible so
as to become thoroughly acquainted
with him and the nature of the Of
tense for which he has been I'M
prisoned The board now employs two
parole agents and paroled men are
given more attention than before.
These things have increased the duties
Of the board members and the work is
growing all the while.

Guardsmen Summoned From Long Dis

Mason City, June 2S.-When it was
needed money for mess funds and
for the reimbursement Of those mem
bers who had come from great dis
tances at their own expense. it was
Immediately decided by some civilians
present that some methods would BE-
taken to supply the deficit in the
finances. MayorhPo was immedi-
ately interviewed and his views asked
on the best way to get the money.
There were two ways which seemed
likelysto get it. One, to hold tag day
and put it in charge of the young ladies
of the community. and the second to
ask the chamber Of commerce for the
money outright Mayor Potter thought
that the second way was the better
and so Immediately Interviewed the
members Of the chamber Of commerce
and asked them II they would be will
ing to, donate for the purpose of sup
plying the militia with equipment.
Were Very Willing.
The members to man signified that
the body would do so gladly and Mr..
Potter then went to the commandans
of the local armory and found out what
funds were necessary. 1t was found
that it would take approximately $500
at the present time. Mr.. Potter was
given the check for this amount at his
office In the city hall. The only provision
the chamber Of commerce made was
that the money was to be presented to
the two companies as a gift from all
the women of Mason City. This, they
thought, was the wisest plan under the
circumstances.
Potter Puts Things Oyer.
When the one that found that the
money was needed, he was a trifle
afraid that it might be hard to get
the sum at one time. 1t took Mr.. Pot
ter about three minutes to complete
The transaction and he had time left
over at that. In interviewing the Of
ficers of the militia the mayor assured
them that anything the boys needed
would be gladly given. and all they had
to do was to ask. Mr.. Potter is work
ing hard on plans which may be used
to raise further funds if they are nee
essary, and Is devoting great portion
Of his time TO the armory.
Wkae It's Used For.
The money will be used for mess
equipment. It will be given over to the
two captains and used as their judg-
