quartets will furnish the music for
the occasion. Sunday evening at 1880
will be the last in the series of meet
ings so far as we know now. They
may continue during the coming week
if Pastor Shepard does not have to
return home. The subject for Sum-
day night will be: "Will There Be a
Chance for Salvation After Death"
Why should any mar need another
chance for salvation if the present
cannot save him? If the lost in hell
had an opportunity they would stock
forth on the world forum and through
their white teeth warn men not to
come to their hell. The meetings have
been continuing to increase in num-
bers and interest and power from the
beginning, and Rev. Shepard has
proved himself to be a preacher of no
ordinary ability and has won the
hearts of the people to himself, and
many may be won to the Kingdom of
Christ if all cooperate in the work,
Hear Shepard before he leaves.

for me to get the results / desired,
yet, nevertheless, I stand for that
same declaration today and it is my
firm resolution, during the remainder
of myterm in office, to continue to
vigorously prosecute infractions of
any of the laws upon the statute
books. If those laws work a handi-
cap, the remedv is with the legisla-
ture.
l took an oath of office when l en-
tered upon my duties as county at
torney. That oath demands that /
shall fearlessly and vigorously prose-
cute such actions as may come to
my office. l believe that every pub
lie officer should do his duty. I pro-
pose, therefore, as long as I am county
attorney to be guided by my official
that every officer should do his duty.
Further, there is upon the statute
books a law which provides, among
other things, that if / should do the
things requested by this petition, ]
would be guilty of a felony.
1t must be apparent, therefore, that
in the light of my own pledges, the
regard l have for my official oath,
and also by reason of the drastic pen
atty that attaches to doing the things
requested in the petition, that l must
fatty and unequivocally say that
cannot assent, and do not desire to
assent, to the line of action requested
in the said petition, and l desire also
10 be understood as emphatically dis
approving such a line of action.

All the men of Glasgow are very
cordially invited to attend a mass
meeting for men only at the court

Mr.. Shepard is a mar among men

largest Young Mems Bible Class in
the State of Montana. He is a great
force among the men of Billings,

NO ASSIGNMENTS FOR

Nationwide Protest to War De-
partment Over Report
That Only Half Will
Get Jobs.

Press reports from Washington
that about half of the 10000 men tx
pected to be commissioned from the
second officers training camps will be
placed on the reserve list at the ter.
mination of the three months train.
ing has given rise to much discussion
both among prospective officers anc
civilians. The reasion given for the
war departments announcement is
that the output of officers will exceed
the number of assignments open al
the present time. This action, it is
said will be taken irrespective OF
the amount of training the men have
had, and bears no relation to their
efficiency.
"Such action seems to be contrary
to the understanding given in the
memorandum of information issued
by the war department for the guild
ance Of those who applied for admis-
sion to the second officers school,"
said David Roe, member of the exam
lining board for prospective officer
candidates in this country. AS a mat
ter Of fact, no one who went to the
training camp had the slightest ex-
~pectation of being sent back home if
he proved his suitability as an officer.
1t now appears that some 1000 of
these men may be sent back home to
await future call for active duty.
Complications Arise.
"There is no guarantee as to how
long they may remain at home. There
fore they cannot accept permanent
commercial positions, and naturally
will have great difficulty, under such
circumstances, in securing satisfac-
tory temporary employment. Most of
the boys went to camp at great per-
sonal financial sacrifice, to say moth
ing of the chance they have assumed
Of losing their lives in the forthcom-
ing struggle.
"Many have figured out their finan-
ces so that the salary of 500 a month
at the training camp, together with
the entire surplus they may have had,
will carry them only until the time at
which they would receive the higher
pay expected by them upon recon-
mendation for a commission at the
termination of their period of train
ing.
Looking at the matter from the
military standpoint, it is s%elf-evident
that if it takes six months to train
the drafted troops ready for war, and
if it took three months to train Gen.
eral Pershing's regular army before
they were allowed to go into the
trenches, that the period of instruc-
ton at the training camps extending
for only three months is not suffi-
cient for learning the officers job.
Time Too Short.

adopted for the first officers training
