FRED WHITE ATTACKED BY A
MAD COYOTE.

While working along the public
road west of the Waterbury place
four miles north east of Mold last
Friday afternoon Fred White was
suddenly attacked by a mad coyote
which appeared from behind a
bunch of tumble weeds. Having
40 other weapon at hand Mr.. White
fought a lively battle with rocks
inally forcing the creature to take
10 the field where he met and bit a
fine dog owned by Charley Small.
After passing on for about one hun
dred yards. Mr.. White was again
confronted by the beast. Again a
lively battle ensued in which Mr.
White prevented the coyote from
biting either himself Or the animal
which he was leading. The coyote
having been baffled by the second
battle made north across the field
followed by Mr.. Small who carried
gun to give his children safe con-
iuct from school in the event tha!
ne could not make an end to the pest
which is still at large at the present
writing.

School Notes
~ II
EDITORS

There is an atmosphere of expec-
fancy prevailing in the school room
this afternoon due to the fact that
the grade cards are to be given out
today.
There was a meeting of the tennis
association Monday afternoon and
several questions of Importance
namely: that the try-out would be
next Monday; that the domestic
science department should give a
feed to those people coming from a
distance to take part in the tourna-
ment; that every member of The as
Sociation should devote solnetsffE t.
repairing the courts Tuesday after
school and that the constitution
should be amended so that persons
playing tennis may be permitted to
play only one Set-heretofore it has
been three-while others indulging
in the game were anxiously waiting
to try their hand
The fixtures for the tennis courts
and the balls have arrived but the
fixtures will not be put into use
until next Monday.
There is much practicing TO be
heard owing to the fact that the de-
clamatory contest is to be held Fri
day night of this week.
The members Of the physics class
are to hand their note books in some
time this week.
The English class is planning OIL
starting "Carlyle's Essay on Burns
Wednesday of this week.
The Seniors are experiencing
much difficulty in securing a suit
able play.
Juniors.
Judging from some of the grades
received the last exams must have
been very difficult. or an extraordi-
nary amount Of studying has been
done during the last six weeks.
Instead of King Lear, the Junior
English class will take up the study
of "Carlyle's Essay on Burns.
A special Quiz was given Tuesday
morning for the benefit Of those
members of the English class who
did 0t grade above Is per cent.
on the exam.
1t seems that of late the Medieval
history teachers (who are members
of the class) have been subject to
indigestion and the class has tried
treating the teachers to a paper-wad
diet.
Lenore Walker who has been out
Of school for sometime, returned
Monday.

ton was held Monday and the date
being set for the tryout was Monday

ment Saturday, April %. Every

class regret very much to lose one
of their few members, Joe Swank.
Joe has accepted a position with Mr..
j. T. Gull and we all wish him sue
cess in the future.
Don't forget the declamatory con-
test, Friday, April 20. Come and

Spring.

Spring is looked upon by many as
the most delightful season of the
year, but this cannot be said of the
rheumatic. The cold and damp
weather brings on rheumatic pains
which are anything but pleasant.

FIRST DRAFT TO
TAKE ONLY BOYS
NONE OVER TWENTY TO BE
ENLISTED IN THE FIRST
HALF MILLION.
OTHERS TO GO LATER
Postmasters to Aid Listing of
Names of Eligibles for
Recruits.

In the raising of the first army
of 100000 under the selective con-
script plan, now about certain or
going through congress, it is pro-
posed, according to influential army
officers, to take no man more than
twenty years old into the ranks.
They are men who will be known as
class 19. If enough of them can moi
be secured, then the men of class 20
will be called up, otherwise those
less than 81 years old. The other
class will be reserved for later calls
In the scheme the country is to'
bedivided into sixteen districts, moi
yet defined. 1t is probable that the
Pacific northwest and northern part
of the present 18th division of the
national guard will be formed into
one district: that is, Washington,
Oregon, Idaho and Montana, and
possibly Wyoming added.
General Officer to Command.
In each of the 16 divisions will be
located a general officer with
complete staff. Probably the estab.
hshment recently of the new tent
alive district, with headquarters al
Portland, commanded by Colonel
John L. Hayden, is hint of what
is later to be accomplished. The
general in each district will select
and equip camps, under the direct
ion of the departmental commander,
for the conscripts.
To assist in listing the men of mil
itary age in rural districts the post
master in second, third and fourtl.
classes and rural carriers will be
used. They, like the registering Of
flcers in the cities, will list ali
fromss19 to 25, years of. age. From,
these lists the call for service will
be made.
Then class 19 will be assembled
in the camps, claims of exemption
heard and passed upon and physical
examinations held. 1t is certain the
residue after all this will exceed the
100000 required.
Long Course of Training.
Under officers and instructors
from the regular army, national
guard and officers reserve, the mer
will enter upon vigorous course
of training, being formed into pro
visional units for the purpose. MOI
until the preliminary training has
we'll progressed will permanent
companies and higher units be for
med.
'How long will the training per
iod continue?" was asked.
Probably less than year. That
is something yet to be determined
was the answer.
But in the event of an early deter
ination to send troops to Russia, all
this may be rushed, in so far, al
least, as the expeditionary army is
concerned.
The proposal of the Japanese OF
Seattle to raise regiment for ser.
vice in the American army, made uI
entirely of Japanese save for the
colonel of their choice, Harry Whit.
ney Treat, was discussed informally
at the war department today anc
will be presented formally to the
secretary of war tomorrow.

Biggest Demand for HOrsefesh.

The next 10 years will see the big.

and meet this demand and also beaI
in mind that good horse-flesh cam
