It now ~transpires that, because Of the

Of the event will go to the sol
der boys at Camp Dodge from
Minnesota and Iowa. These
states furnish the larger num-
Der of the men at the camp.
With favorable weather the
game will draw an immense
crowd. The Minneapolis journal
is featuring the big doings. It's
plan was to have the game
Thanksgiving day, but the stad-
ium is engaged for that date as
it is the annual contest between
Drake and Ames.
The departure Of the men from
the depot brigade to fill up the
ranks Of the depleted oul Ma
tional Guard at Camps, in the
south shows with what care the
government guards the move
ments Of troops. Not even the
men at Camp Dodge knew the
exact time Of the departure and
nobody outside of the officers in
charge and the railway officials
knew over what route they were
sent. They all retired as usual
when taps were sounded. but
shortly after midnight were cal
led from their beds and ordered
to make ready Immediately for
the journey. Z When morning
dawned their comrades discov-
cred nothing but empty bar
racks. Another bunch of men
was ordered to make a speedy
departure for somewhere in
the SOUTH" presumably at Black
Point, Florida. These men are
second lieutenants, 200 Of them,
and after taking a special curse
they will be assigned to service
either in France or at the var
ious military posts.
Statements credited to War
Department authorities, that
100000 men of the first nation

camp must furnish about 5000
air fighters. Twenty officers
have indicated to Maj. Clyde L.
Eastman, division signal officer,
that they want to go into train
ing to become aerial observers.
The division staff has been au-
thorized by the war department
to accept applications for this
branch of the service, but has
not indicated when action will
be taken on the applications.

Men Tired and Covered With Sticky Mud From Head to Foot and Are Ready to Do Some Sleeping
 French HOnored Them.

With the American Army in France, Nov. 7.-Delayed) The first American artillery unit to es- tablish contact with the Germans came back to it's bilets this after noon.
 The men were tired and muddy, but still as enthusiastic a lot of sol diers as ever came out of the gun pits.
 The artillery had longer stay at the front than did the infantry, and they came back, men and horses, wet to the bone, covered with thick heavy mud and ready to sleep.
 Their home coming was one that will be long remembered in this section of France. The gun and crew that fired the first shot were honored.
 Children gathered around an placed floral wreaths over the grim barrel of the gun and wild flowers inside the empty case of the first shot fired.

Finds Extra Good Cotton.

Mr. and Mrs. J. E Taylor were in Mena Friday to do trading. Mir Taylor has been experimenting with a new variety of cotton, the start for which he received in 1916, when he received a pound of seed from the government, thru the courtesy of Senator Joe T.

The favor able qualities of the cotton are the productiveness, early maturity and quality to withstand dry weather Mir.

 "I urge men of the legal profes- sion to offer themselves as associate members of the legal advisory boards to be provided in each com munity for the purpose of advising registranls of their rights and obh- gations and of assisting them in the preparation of their answers to the questions which all men subject to the draft are to be required to sub- init. l ask the doctors of the coun- try to identify themselves with the medical advisory boards which are Co be constituted in the various dis tricts turnout the United States for the purpose of making system atic physical examination of the reg istrants.
