CHILDREN CROWD SCHOOLS

The primary children are enrolling in
the city schools today AS the great
number of these little folk always
makes a great difference in the total
enrolment, that cannot yet be estimat-
ed. The work in the grades and in
the High School is we'll organized. The
number Of positions offering good
wages. especially to the boys, is making
the High School enrolment less than
anticipated. though many will come in
as the farming closes.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 24.--First news
that two Americans were injured while
those forces were undcr German fire in
France was conveyed to the War De-
partment in United States dispatches
from William Philip Simms today.
The news sent a thrill of anticipation
through military officials here, and was
taken to indicate that before snow flies,
American forcess, bearing the Stars and
Stripes. viii be "going over the top"
with Tommies and Poilus
Some days ago Simms cabled the first
news Of the bombing Of American hos
pital forces, and il was explained at
the War Department then that these
particular troops we're outside Pershng's
jurisdiction. hence the delay in receiv-
ing official word here.

Bank Of Valley City
Has Patriotic Story

The Bank of Valley City believes in
advertising, but, like all other banks
in Valley City, it believes more thor
oughly in patriotism. In place of it's
usual advertising in it's usual space
on the front page of this issue, held
under contract by the bank, will be
found quotation from the dying
words of Lieutenant Philip Nolan, who
in the thrilling and pathetic story of
Edward Everett Hale was condemned
to live out the balance of his wretched
life as "A Man Without a Country"
Copies of the complete story, which
created such profound impression
when it first appeared during the Civil
war, are being presented by the bank
to its customers. All children in the
seventh and eighth grades in our pub.
lie schools, including the Normal
model school, all high school students,
all members Of Company G., and all
visiting militiamen wearing our coun-
trys uniform, are cordially invited to
call at the bank and receive copy.
A special meeting of the Masonic
Blue lodge Of Valley City was held
Friday evening for the purpose of rails
ing l. J. Moe, F. E. Buck walter and
Fred Fredrickson to the degree Of
master mason. The meeting was at
tended by a large number of the breth.
ern, including some from Sanborn, who
were especially interested in the work
Of the evening owing to the fact of
Mayor Moe at one time being a San
born citizen. Light refreshments were
enjoyed by the members at the close
of the evenings session.

Men Of II to 5 to
Be Subject to Draft

Washington, May 1.-Conferences
on the war army bill, passed for a Sec
ond time by the senate today, proba bly,
will not begin for several days. Con-
ferees Of the senate apd house will
meet tomorrow, but they also have the
task of smoothing away differences
over the annual army appropriation
bill and they will take up that subject
first
There are not any points of disagree
ment in the appropriation bill and
leaders hope to see both measures
completed in time to have President
Wilson attach his signature during the
present week.
The senate passed the war army
bill again today to clear up parliament
tary tangles, without prolonged dis
cussion or serious effort to revive the
struggle over the volunteer system
as opposed to the selective draft fea-
ture, which consumed most of the
time in last weeks debate. Senator
La Toilette spoke in support of a sub
stitute with referendum on raising
an army by draft to send to Europe
but was defeated 68 to4.
Principal differences between the
houses include the so-called Roosevelt
volunteer amendment in the senate
bill; the differences in the ages sub
ject to selective draft; the senate bill
specifying those between 21 and 27
and the house 21 and 40, and the SEN
ate bills army prohibition section.
A compromise is expected on the
age limits, possibly fixing the mini
mum 21 and the maximum IS. The
house representatives probably never
will accept the Roosevelt amendment,
which would permit the former presi-
dent to raise four infantry divisions
for duty on foreign SOIL
An amendment by Senator Gronna
of North Dakota to prohibit manufac-
ture during the war of agricultural
products into liquor for beverage pur-
poses, was rejected Without a record
vote.
Senator McCumber's amendment to
strike out the provision exempting
from conscription those whose relig-
ious belief conflicts with military SER
vice was rejected, 81 to II.

L. W. Hubbard, who for the past
two years has been acting as general

valued employe of the Times.Record,
are now sole owners and proprietors
of the Valley City Courier, having pur-
chased the same from Mr.. Trubshaw

Messrs. Hubbard and Young, need no
introduction to the people of Valley
City. Hubbard, you know, is the good
looking, congenial fellow who leads

pal band, while Young has the best
looking girl in town and is liked by all
who know him. They enter upon their
responsibilities with the best wishes
of the community. Mr.. Trubshaw

Horse, Wagon, Driver and
Coal Dropped Into the Bin

Quite an accident occurred in the
back yard of the Dave Richie home
Monday evening, which might have
been very serious, but through a mi
racle no one was hurt. 1t seems
drivers are sometimes careless about
confning their route to the driveway,
and in this instance the driver of a
coal wagon drove onto the lawn off
the driveway of the Ritchie home,
and horse, wagon and driver wenc
down into the coal bin. It seemed as
though the wagon was resting on the
horse, but later it was discovered that
the horse was not harmed at all, nor
was the harness or wagon. After sew
eral hours of waiting and work, the
wagon was drawn out, and the horse
was taken into the cellar and out
through the house.

preparations committee having elimin-
ated more than s60O,OO0,0O0 by pairing
down the amounts requested to the
point of urgent necessity.
The military appropriation, which
is in addition to the regular army and
forti6cation bills, and the $4,000, ,OOO,-

automatic machine guns; $3,75O,OOO
for civilian training camps; $609,00O,'

More than $125, 100000 was added by
the amendment increasing the pay OF
enlisted men from SIS to $50 month
a proposal already accepted by both
senate and house as part of the army
draft bill, but transferred to the ap
preparation measure today to facilitate
final enactment It brings up to more
than $325,O00,OOO the total appropria
tion in the bill for army pay.
