BADGER PICKUPS.

Burt Hammer is fixing fence this
week.
Ed Hill had a flue built one day
last week.
Mrs. Anna Fitzgerald is working
for Mrs. Hill this summer.
Mr.. and Mrs. ]. L. Dyer transacted
business in the county seat Monday.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Ruppel from
Tampico visited at Hiram Lanes Sum-
day.
The recent rain has helped grain,
gardens, ETC., but didn't help break
ing much.
Mrs. A. c. Vertz was shopping in
town Tuesday. The children spent the
day with the Barstead children.
The dance at the Badger school
house Saturday night was quite we'll
attended and all report an enjoyable
time.
Miss Edna Clocksin, who has been
staying for the past year at S. H.
Orvises. in Glasgow, came home to
stay indefinitely. .
Mr.. McCune has decided to become
a permanent resident here, having
moved his personal effects over to
his claim Friday.
We understand the ]. L. Dyer fam
ily, who recently moved into our COM
munity, are quite we'll satisfied with
their new home.
Seeding is all over in these parts,
except flax, and on account of the dry
weather, not so much will be sown as
was at first intended.
Amos Rice recently bought what
was known as the "Coffman quarter"
and this added to the quarter section
he purchased not long ago, makes him
a very nice farm.
And so Glasgow has decided to cele-
brate the Fourth in an old fashioned
way, by having everything free.
That's the kind Of celebration that
DrlngS the crOWdS n n good times,
too.
A. C. Vertz marketed six hogs in
town last Friday, which brought him
somewhere between $3.50 and. $500,
having received 20 cents per pound.
That's some price to get for hogs, but
the consumer thinks it's dreadful, the
price he has to pay for meat.
Sunday school was organized at the
Badger school house last Sunday.
Quite a large crowd was present. The
following officers were elected: P. A.
White, superintendent; Mrs. Clocksin,
assistant superintendent; Miss Thora
Hopstead, secretary and treasurer.

will proceed the issuance of registra-
tions to govern the selection of men
for exemption.
To Localize Boards.
EXEMPTION boards will be localized
as much as possible to make it easier
for selected men to get to the place
of exemption without interfering any
more than is absolutely necessary with
their regular occupations. Care will
be taken also to hasten a decision in
each case and to keep selected men
in suspense no longer than necessary.
Officials generally said tonight the
fact that the few states which had
sent in their complete figures at a
late hour showed with two exceptions
falling off from census estimates from
total registration should not be taken
as indicating any great number of
evasions. All reports from depart
ment of justice agents and others
tended, on the. cintrary, to show that
there was a surprisingly small num-
Der of sulkers.
Total figures for the even states
and the District of Columbia which
had reported up to the time the
provost marshal's office closed for the
night showed approximately $4,000
decrease below census estimates.
Should that average hold for all as
states, this would mean a total de-
crease of 100000, or a total registra-
ton of 9,784,00O. The army, navy
marine corps and the national guard,
included in the population figures,
upon which the census estimates were
based would more than offset the de-
crease.
Many Claim Exemptions.
Nearly half of the men who regis
tered Tuesday in Valley county claim
ed an exemption of some kind. Among
The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1917-06-15

them, Of course, were many men who
were married, others claimed physical
infirmities of some kind, the rest used
some thirty or forty reasons to i'm
press upon the registration officials
their u~nfitness for service in the new
draft army.
When the call is made and the war
department sets the number of men
required from this county, the local
board will probably override many Of
the exemptions claimed. The same
thing is true of men who claimed
physical defects of one kind or an
other. All men who are in this class
will have to be examined by the pro-
per authorities.

front door. The young mans name
was John Curtis son of John Curtis,
proprietor of the curio store, and
young John had taken that smashed
image of mine to his fathers store,
and had it all nicely mended. Then
he brought it to my address, which he
found upon the card tied about the
heather gods neck. And was so cold
in my appreciation, that had to make
up for it by inviting him in, and being
entertaining.
You will remember that the image
was supposed to bring true love to it's
owner. Well, if the love of John Cur
lis for me is not true, then never was
true love in the world. AS he says:
"Surely it was the little old chap
who brought us together" and for
that reason he is determined never to
part from the Hindu god. But in
Johns home and mine, the smile of
the image above our hearth fire will
beam with the light of our reflected
happiness.

from the crowd and it moved forward
A man in the front rank was holding

and snatched the weapon with such
suddenness that she had wrenched it
from him before he could tighten his

came a tangled, seething mass.

the sheriffs had got out of the battling,
savage crowd. That night he rode out
on the upland ridges where the red
bush country yields it's gnarls and
knobs to the gentled undulations of
the Missouri prairies on the west. His
broad-rimmed hat was cooked in front
by the cool wind; his black hair was
hanging out in tresses; red silk hand
kerchief was futtering at his neck;
his free hand was caressing the name
of his foam-fecked horse. He was no
longer looking back or bending his ear
tn hear if pushing hoofs were beating
behind him. He was humming the
plaintive air of love song.

Goats Rout Evil Spirits.

Welsh farmers often keep two or
three goats among their fine herds of
cattle. There is a tradition that the
presence of goats helps to keep off
evil spirits, and so saves the cattle
from disease. In some parts of Wales
the presence of a donkey is believed
to have the same effect. A more
prosaic reason is that a. goat amongst
cattle keeps vermin from breeding on
their skins.
