PERJURY TO EVADE DRAFT

Somewhere in Montana, says the
Great Falls Leader, there are three
men who have made affidavit to ex-
emption claims on appeal which will
probably land them behind prison
bars for perjury. At least the district
board, sitting in the Cascade county
court house, through Chairman E. L.
Norris, has certified upon three ap-
peals for perjury to the United States
district attorney for his action in the
federal court.
Somewhere in Montana a man made
affidavit that he was the sole sup
port of his wife, and the wife made
affidavit that she was dependent upon
his efforts. The petition was denied
by the local board and an appeal was
taken, and with the appeal came rec
ords that the wife has been employed
two years in a county office up to a
few months ago at $125 per month,
and had resigned and was now en-
ployed on a corporation job which
pays her $3.50 per month-more than
the husband is making.
Somewhere in Montana. another man
makes affidavit that his father is in
feeble health and he is his sole sup
port. Comes also certificate of a
physician saying that "father" is as
strong as bull elk, and also comes
records showing that "father" pays
$500 per year taxes and is rated as a
wealthy man.
Somewhere in Montana comes an
other man making affidavit that his
wife is sickly and that he is her sole
and also comes records showing that

AN ASSORTMENT OF EXCUSES

A solicitious mother wrote to con-
gressman at Washington to inquire if
her son could not be exempt from the
draft on the ground that he is left
handed. The congressman is said to
have taken the matter up with the war
department and learned that "a large
number of left-handed guns had been
ordered" for soldiers of left-handed
tendencies.
Seriously there are probably as
many absurd excuses given by slack
ers who wish to escape the draft as
there are slackers in number. The
frankest of these is a Philadelphia
youth who, the other day, is reported
to have made a personal visit to the
White House at Washington and
lodged a plea for exemption on the
ground that he was too big coward
to fight.

One of the primary objects of a

entertainment for our army of farm

portunity to enjoy the varied pleas
ures of their city brothers. The state
fair is the ideal place to celebrate a
successful harvest, and the man whose

George J. Cooper, an employe of the
Great Northern, is on the road to per-

can be done, it will be necessary for

The gas steam engine is type OF

hoped for years back would be
brought to a state Of mechanical anC
commercial perfection. When per.

measure the power of engines.

FATHER ACCIDENTALLY
SHOOTS HIS son

While picking berries along the
banks of the little Porcupine creek
near Gold Medal Monday morning
Jens Jensen accidentally shot and
killed his II year old son, Clarence.
The Jensen family were out togeth-
er on berry picking tour, Mrs. Jen-
sen saw sage hen and called to her
husband, who took a shot gun and
fired when the bird arose. The ans.
wer to the shot was the cry of the
boy who called to them that he had
been shot.
The boy passed away soon after
and one of the neighbors drove to
Glasgow to notify Coroner Peterson
who left Monday night to bring in
the body. The funeral was held or
