promulgated by the President will
be classied according to trades and
profession aud in times of dearth
of men in the various branches of
government industry, they will be
called to serve the government at
home instead of in the trenches.

mobilize 100000 skilled and I'M

arm. Walt has been employed as
brakeman on the N. P. ever since

cry and that he will not have the
misfortune of losing his arm,
which seems rather doubtful in
saving at last report.

Editor of the Willmar Tribune:

With your permission, Mr.. Editor,
wish to say few words in regard to
an appeal, by our present Game War
den, Mr.. Ernest Olson to the good
citizens Of Kandiyohi county.
BY reading the article referred to,
and from personal conversation with
the above named gentleman, l am
thOroly convinced that it is his earnest
desire, in conducting the duties of his
Office, to make friends and no enemies.
The present law may not be perfect,
or to the liking Of everybody, but
believe 1t is step in the right direc-
ton. When we realize that the state
Is continually trying to keep our beau
tfful lakes we'll stocked with fish, it
stands to reason that the Department
which has this matter in charge is
looking to the people living around
these lakes to cooperate with them.

NO MORE SNAP JUDGMENTS

School Meetinu

All Candidates Must BE Filed With
Clerk Twelve Days Before
School Meeting.
The late legislature made a change
in the manner of electing school Of
ficers that appears to be an improve
ment over the old law. It will give the
people of the school district twelve
days notice of who are candidates for
members Of the Board of Education
and voting will be done with Austral
ian ballot.
Under the new law any person de.
string to be a candidate for a board
member must file with the clerk of
the district an application to be plac-
ed on the ballot. Or, if it is case of
the Office seeking the man, five voters
of the district may file such an appli-
cation for and on behalf of any voter
they desire to be candidate Such
applications must be filed not more
than 80 days and and not less than -
days before the date of the annual
meeting. The clerk will then prepare
the ballots at the expense of the dis
trict, placing on them the names of
the candidates with blank square op-
p0site each name for crosses as at
general elections.
The law does not apply to school
districts having but one teacher.

FIiaht Of q Swarm Of Meteors,

A swarm Of meteOrs that appeared
on Feb. 8, 1913, was regarded at the
time as very remarkable on account Of
the great distance 1t was traced In the
earth's atmosphere. 1t was first seen
In Saskatchewan, western Canada, and
seemed to be travelling southeasterly.
as It was also reported from Bermuda.
From the additional records supplied
by seamen w. F. Denning, the English
authority on mete0rs, has concluded
that it continued in view during at
least $500 miles Of its fight. AS the
visible stream could at no time have
been more than about 100 miles high,
it must have followed the earth's
curvature, and the curious idea has
been advanced by Garvin ]. Burns that
1t was really captured by the earth as
a group of infinitestimal satellites. The
meteors may thus have passed around
the globe several times before reach
ing the surface. 1t is supposed that
the orbit Of the stream nearly coincid-
ed with that of the earth and that con.
sequently the velocity of fall through
our atmosphere was small.

Explosion. XII. Without Wound.

Explosions Kill Without Wounds,
How the explosions Of heavy shells
can kill persons without apparent
wounds is explained by DR.. j. Lepine
In note presented to the Academic de
Medicine. He says: This effect Is due
to perturbation of the nervous CEN
ters, arising from the explosion Of the
heavy shells and the consecutive &C.
lions which are produced. Such per-
turbations are caused by a sudden dis
tension Of the circulatory system Of the
human body, due to sudden pressure
exercised upon the whole surface of
the body. This pressure reaches q
maximum upon the abdominal region,
from which all the visceral blood is
driven toward the interior portion of
the body"

Books on q Shelf.

Books are frequently ruined through
carelessness. This is less in the han
ding often than upon the shelves
Books should not be packed tightly on
shelf. 1t ruins the back and causes
them to tear loose with the strain of
getting In and out. Often it forces the
leaves to sag to the shelf when pushed
unduly. 1t is just as bad for books to
be too loose on shelf, as they warp,
and the spreading leaves encourage
dust. A bookcase with the contents
at every angle is not a pleasant
sight. There are some housekeepers
who think a yearly busting of the
books at housekeeping time sufficient.
This is bad enough when they are
kept under glass. When on open
shelves it means ruin to valuable
books. 1t takes a little longer to dust
the backs and tops Of books on each
shelf every day. Use q soft cheese
cloth or silk buster and shake it fire.

VERY SAD DEATH At

GROVE CITY SUNDAY
Mrs. A. J. FIoren Victim Of Stroke
While Bending Over Hot
Kitchen Stove.
Mrs. A. j. Floren, an aged widow
resident at Grove City, died under
peculiar circumstances last Sunday.
She was living alone in her home.
While preparing meal for herself
she became the victim of what is be-
heved to have been an apoplectic
stroke and 1t visited her while she was
In the act Of bending over a stove, in
which there was coal fire. There is
no telling If she died from the stroke
or from the effects of the fire for her
face and chest were badly burned and
charred. Evidently she had not moved
after falling on the stove. Mrs. C. c..
Retain, a neighbOr, who dropped in
during the day discovered the body.
Mrs. FlOren was a native of Nor
way. Her husband conducted a shoe
store in that village and was one of
its early business men. He died a
number of years ago. The survivors
are one son, ]. A. Floren and one
daughter, Mrs. Rudolph Carlson, both
resident in Grove City.
The funeral was held Tuesday af-
terno0n from the Grove City Norweg-

Unapprociated GaIjan<rv.

Joseph II. Choate, former ambassa-
dor to England, always has had strong
domestic tendencies, not the least low
able of his many iovable sides being a
deep affection for Mrs. Choate. Every
one has heard how, when once asked
who he would rather be If not himself,
he replied, Mrs. Choate's second hus-
band," but not every one has heard
the comment of certain London host
ess when this delightful little bit of
sentiment was repeated to her. The
joke fell upon stony ground-the fate
OF so many American witticisms in
British lands. "But who is Mrs.
Choate's second husband?' asked the
matron.-H. Marion Allen in Outlook.

on their part would feel it worth while
to continue the good work, and keep
our lakes we'll stocked with the finny

An appeal to the people, such as we
read in the last issue of the Tribune
ought to go right home to us all. 1t
