rooo.rx Partners Dissolve

George A. Johnson and F. w. Me Namara, owners of the Toggery stores at Mesa and Hayden, and the several large tracts of land near here. known as the Toggery ranches, have dis solved partnership. MT. Johnson states that while both the mercantile estao- lishments and the ranches are on profitable basis, yet the management of each conflicted to a considerable extent with the other, and the dis solution was accomplished whereby Johnson takes the stores and Me- Namara the ranch property. lnas- much as the latter is travelling man, he probably will rent the land. and since "Toggery" Johnson has been at the helm of the store which he has built from a small business to a large establishment, all of the time, there will be no change in this department of the holdings of the firm. As sole owner and without the land to think about, he expects to build his store bigger and better than ever.

Method of Relieving Ment Sent to
Camps Viii Deserve to Stay
at Home.

Washington.-A method of relieving
hardships in cases where men who
should have been exempted have
been ordered to report for military
service or have entered camps, has
been prescribed by Provost Mar
shall General Grower.
If local or district board believes
man has been wrongly ordered to
report for duty it may reopen the
case ION its own initiative and re-
woke the former action.
If the man has already entered the
service he may be discharged only by
order of the army adjutant general,
who will act on recommendations of
local or district boards.
Another ruling provides that thou
sands of aliens who registered for the
draft June 5, and who since that date
have declared their intentions of be-
coming citizens, are now subject to
draft.
