Soldiers Were Guests
of Catholic Society

The ladies of the Catholic Altar so.
clety entertained the men of Company
and Company H at the parish hall
last Monday night. 1t was a splendid
sight to see the $50 sturdy young men

which had been decorated in the ma

were laid for $50, the tables were dec
Grated with the flowers of the season,
and, to judge from the many favorable
comments on the part of the guests,
the lunch was highly appreciated
Much credit for the successful affair
Is due to the members of the society,"

Father Baker presided and, having
hidden the boys a cordial welcome,
spoke few we'll chosen words on the

tain Rltchie's answer was a model

remembered by all present. In spite
OF the oppressive heat, the evening
was thoroughly enjoyed. God guard

Has Both Arms Broken:
Falls From Haystack

LaMoure Chronicle: Accidents new
er seem to come singly, One of very
unusual nature occurred Tuesday aft
ernoon at the Long farm north of
town. Fred Long, brothers and help.
ers were engaged in stacking hay with
stacker and were just finishing the
topping out of big 2O-foot high stack.
Fred was standing at one end awaiting
the next haystacker load of hay to
come up. 1t did come up as lop-sided
load of heavy green hay falling slant
ing upon Mr.. Long and pushed him
down the side of the stack before he
could get out of the way, and part of
the load falling down with him and
upon him. He instinctively threw out
both hands which still grasped his hay
fork. He pitched down head first and
the full shock of the fall was COM
municated to his hands and arms. As
result the bones of both fore arms
were snapped just above the wrists
The pain came on gradually. No au.
timobile being in sight his brother
Will took him to town with team and
buggy. The pain became very severe
as they neared town. The injury was
at once given medical attention, while
Mr.. Long passed the night at the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. H. Kutschenreuter.
He is now getting along as we'll as can
be expected, but the injury is most
unfortunate one, completely incapaci-
tating the unfortunate victim.

District Board Has Big
Powers for Exemptions

Washington, July 27.-A deluge of
personal inquiries concerning future
steps in the army draft, and of. pleas
from industrial concerns for exemp.
ton for their expert workers, drew
from the provost marshal generals
office today statement that questions
must be addressed to local board and
that claims for industrial exemption
must go later to the district boards.
No general class of workmen will be
exempted, Provost Marshal General
CroWder told the coal production com.
mlttee, which sought information as to
whetheS miners would be left at their
work. Appeals to the provost mar
shals office from employers on behalf
OF their workmen can accomplish
nothing, it was explained, as regula-
tons promulgated by President Wilson
govern all exemptions
District Board is Supreme
"The question of whether a man is
more useful to his country in peace
full pursuit than in military service is
a matter to be taken up with the dis
trlct board" said an announcement,
land for that board to determine In
the light Of the circumstances sur
rounding each individual case.
Procedure in case of claim for dis
charge on the ground of industry or
agriculture is explicitly outlined in the
regulations. Only the upper or dis
trict board has jurisdiction over an in
dustrial or agricultural claim for dis
charge. Before man has a standing
before the district board, he must first
be certified to it by the local or lower
board as physically qualified for SER
vice and must have had any discharge
claim made before the lower board de-
cided adversely to him.
He has five days after he is certi-
fled to the upper board in which to
file claim for discharge, and five days
more In which to file proof. All claims
for exemption or discharge except
claims for discharge on industrial or
agricultural grounds, are decided or
iginally by the local boards"
Apply to Home Board
Most of the inquiries come from men
who are absent from their place of
registration and have been summoned
for examination. Such man should
apply in writing to the local board
in the district where he is registered,
and request an order directing him
to his present district for physical
examination and possible exemption or
discharge claim, = before the board of
the district in which he is now living
This request should designate def
nitely the board having jurisdiction
over the district in which he is living;
for example local exemption board,
number nine, New York city,"

Eagerly Waiting First
Data by Draft Board

Washington, July 26. = Reports OF
the first selection boards to fill the
quotas for the selectiye draft army are
eagerly awaited by Washington off
Gals because they will give the first
definite information as to the probable
percentage of reflections among the
100000 registrants for physical rea.
sons or for dependents.
Many Physically Unfit
Statistics indicated probable re.
lection of one in every four for phys.
ical disability, There is no available
data as to dependents, however, or as
to how many must be excused under
industrial exemptions. - Z
1t appears proba BILE that peculiar re.
suits will be brought out in some dis.
tricts. The lowest rejection and ex.
emption rates are expected in we'll
to'do'communities. Sons of prosperous
men, it is suggested, have had better
food, better care and better surround.
ings than factory hands of nearby
towns and they should be in better
physical condition.
AS class, such young men could
hardly be regarded as indispensable.
officials say, in their civil, business or
industrial capacities, and dependents
probably will not free as many of them
from service as among other classes.
Supporters Exempt
In factory towns, on the other hand.
the rejection rate for physical disabil
ity probably will be high The fact
that men are confined six days a week
at their machines undoubtedly will
have affected their physical condition.
Virtually every married man of those
registered in these places, is the sole
support Of his wife and children, and
such men cannot be taken. Also the
industry In which they are engaged is
liable to be of vital Importance, and
industrial exemptions would run high.

DR.. Nansen in an interview on board

Bismarck, July 26.-Secretary Of
State Thomas Hall has been making
inquiry into the cost of installing me-
tai stamping machines for the manu-.
facture Of automobile tags at the
state penitentiary. Secretary Hall
has thoroughly familiarized himself
with the expense of entering Tito tic
industry and is preparing a report to
be sumbitted to the board OF control at
its next meeting.
Whether the state will enter ilto the
manufacture of auto mobile tags will be
decided at this meeting. 1t is not like
ly, however, that plant will be in
stalled in the immediate future.
Seventy thousand sets of tags will
be necessary to take care of the states
business for the year 1918, according
to the estimates of Secretary Hall.
These cost the state by contract on
an average of from 10 to 21 cents a
set. 1t has been estimated that the
state could manufacture the same tag
with prison labor at cost of nine
cents set, which would mean saw.
ing of more than so per cent in the
state
Road Sign Making Next
The aggregate cost for 10000 tags at
Fl cents each would be $14,7OO, while
the cost for the same number at 9
cents each would be $6,300 The re-.
suit would be net saving to the state
annually of $8,4O0. The sum, it is
pointed out, would be applied to the
general highway fund and the people
OF the state would benefit materially
by better roads.
In the course of time after the in
dustry had been established at the pen
itentiary, it would also be possible to
branch out into the manufacture of
road signs for the highway commits
sion. This also would result in a con-
siderable saving to the state.
The operation of the automobile tag
industry, it is pointed out, could be &C.
complished during the dull winter
months when there is no labor for the
men on the penitentiary farm and
brick yard. 1t has been difficult
through the dull months of the year
to keep the prisoners employed, and
the installation of the automobile tag
industry could be carried out, state Of
hclals say, without cutting into the
tWlne Industry in the least.
