MOTORCYCLES ARE GETTING
CALL IN BORDER SERVICE
Fargo Dealer Declares United States
10 Recognizing Value Of the
."Pop Pops"

TN view Of the outbreak of HOSTILE
ties between the United States and
Germany, and plans long prepared by
the United States quartermaster's de-
partment, motor division, hundreds of
motorcycles and sidecars are to be
purchased Immediately" said Fred
Green today.
AFTER mature elaboration based
upon reports of the officers having in
charge the motor-vehicle division, in
GLIDING motorcycles, recommendation
has been received from Brig. Gen.
George Bell, jr., commanding the west
ern border patrol, that all motorcycles
bought hereafter for the armies Of the
southwest, from Brownsville to
Nogales, Ariz., shall be Indians.
''The reasons stated were that the
Indian factory alone rendered suffi-
cient service to those in charge OF the
motorcycles on the border.
"By service is meant prompt factory
attention to recommendations of offi-
GERS who had motorcycles under their
charge, and in sending competent men
to Columbus, Ell Paso, San Antonio
and other army camps to look after
the machines being used"

Proper Food For Weak stomaohs.

The proper food for one man may be
all wrong for another. Every one
should adopt a diet suited to his age
and occupation. Those who have weak
stomachs need to be especially careful
and should eat slowly and masticate
their food thoroughly. 1t is also inn
portant that they keep their bowels
regular. When they become constipat-
ed or when they feel dull and stupid
after eating, they should take Cham
berIain's Tablets to strengthen the
stomach and move the bowels. They
are easy to take and pleasant in eff
