Washington to the effect that North
Dakota National Guardsmen will go
into training at Deming, N. NJ. such
information, being contained in an
Associated Press dispatch received
by The Forum. there have been no
developments in connection with the
call for the mobilization of the state
j gllardsnen. due next Sunday, July
is, under President Wilson'S pro-
clamation.
The selection of Deming as the
training point is conditional upon the
approval OF the general commander
Of the National Guard.
The uncertainty that exists with
reference to the designation of a
training place is reflected in a Min
neapolis dispatch which says the
Sill, Okla, instead of Deming, and
that the North Dakota, South Da-
kota, Nebraska and Iowa troops
would be quartered at the same place.
Here For Some Time.
Captain r. Colley, Co. B. stated
today that it was up to all members
of Co. B to hold themselves in readi-
ness.
I'VE have received no orders yet"
said the captain today. There is,
however, reason to believe that we
win be called into the service next
Sunday, and every member OF Co. B
should hold himself in readiness to
report at any time"
Captain Colley believes the troops
will be quartered in their home arm
ory for some time after the formal
call is made. but he. as well as 9TH
er guard officials. is in the dark as
to the war departments plan of op-
GRAFTON.
EnIistments Are Aided.

aided since the Presidents pro-
clamation was issued. Today Co. B
added the names of Edwin H. Wit
elk. Of Fargo. and William A. Zim-
norman. of Fargo, to the rolls
