AL FREDERICK NEW MGR.
EXTRA COOPERATIVE

The vacancy in the managers
office of the Extra Cooperative
Company caused by the resignation
of Mr.. j. A. johnson to accept a
position ait Lorah, was supplied by
the appointment OF Mr.. AL F'reder-
icks of our city.
Mr.. Frederick is we'll known to
all within the trade territory
of Extra. as he has lived ON a
Greeley township farm for many
years where he and his esteemed
wife have raised an honorable fam
lily.
Mr.. Fredericks popularity as one
of our foremost and successful re
Tired farmers, will draw much sup
port to the interests he represents
as Manager of the Co-Operative
Company.
The appointment is no doubt a
wise one and we trust THAT these
trying times of food speculation,
may cease. and THAT plenty of
business and fair profits, will again
be the rule. Cheer up we are near
ing the end of the war.

NORWAY SWEDEN DEN
MARK SHORT COAL

The shortage of coal is keenly
felt in Norway. Denmark and Swe-
den. The schools are closed. The
ordinary life of the city ends at
dusk aik order to- save gas and
electricity and to allow the fires
to die down. The people go to bed
early to keep warm. Candles are
used to Light the houses. The use
of gas to heat water for household
nsed is forbidden. Street cars are
run on a reduced schedule. Every
where and in, every walk of life the
pinch of want in all things that
require fuel is keenly felt. The
government is organizing armies
of men to go into the forests and
cut wood to keep the people from
freezing when the next winter comes
ON.
The governments of the three
Scandinavian countries control the
purchase and d stribution of necess-
tiles. The governments have prac-
t'cally replaced the wholesalers. The
are now engaged in an inventory of
footwear with view to regulat-
ing the sale of shoes so that there
will be enough to go around.

There were l7S men Registered
here Tuesday.
The boys took hold of the Reg
istration i'm great shape and not a
particle of ill feeling was shown,
in fact all who registered seemed
to be proud of the opportunity of
showing their patriotic spirit. One
gentleman remarked; II have lived
in this town nearly all my life
and | saw several young men wear
ing the ribbon that l had never
seen before, where did they come
from?" Conseription as applied to
all. is fair for all alike and the

men where they are best adapted
to their country's needs. The men
who registered are certainly a fine
looking lot of fellows.

PRESIDENT WILSON

The war powers of the president
are accepted by everybody as a
matter of course, because experience
has shown that military authority
must thus be centralized to be eff
fective. We are not accustomed
however, to the economic Dictator
ship. 1t rs something new and we
are bewildered. by its possibilities.
None the less, this war has shown
that centralized economic power is
no less vital than centralized milii
tary power and nothing remains
but to make the best of the stu
aNton.. In time of war the American
people must first trust themselves
and then trust their president. The
only thing to do is to give the
president the powers that are need
ed. whether military or economic.
for the successful conduct of war,
and then hold him to a strict re-
sponsibility. New York World.
