s'How Joined Uncle Sans Navy"
BY C. c. Lyon.

If a boy has any manliness in him
at all, the U. S. navy will bring it out.
Sooner or later every recruit must
learn to stand squarely on his own
feet. There's no place IN the service
for the halfway fellow.
The navy is not reform school
and bad boys who are known to be
such won't be accepted.
But once in while bad one gets
in.
For this fellow there are only two
avenues open; either he must bring
himself up to the level of ms fellows
the vast majority of whom are
clean, well-behayed chaps, or he must
leave the service.
"a few drops of soul milk will
spoil a gallon of good milk" one of
the instructors at the Norfolk train

Norfolk one day, when hundreds of

day.
He was particularly impressed, he
said, with the gentlemanly behavior
of the crowd.

that the plants are good ones and

Girls Are Mobilizing.
The club girls are very anxious to
do their part for the Stars and
Stripes in the present crisis and have
decided that their garden work is the
best way to do it. They are going to
do their part to keep the county sup
piled with food in this great time of
need. 1t is the aim of the girls that
each one shall feed her immediate
family and expect to go beyond that
and have beans and tomatoes for the
market.
Get Your Cans.
A letter from Miss Harris, our
state home demonstration agent, to
the county agents says in part:
Nov that war is upon US, we of
all people, have our mission clearly
before US. Not for profits, nor for
records, should we work this year.
Greater than in all the years past,
should we bend our energies to save
every bit of the surplus foodstuffs
produced in the county in which we
are working 1t will be a tragedy to
allow any to go to waste. Let US all,
for our county people, be they club
people or not, work to save every
thing produced, and to produce as
much as possible.
First, our motive should be, the
amount of food produced. Not high
yield per tenth acre, but as much food
as possible, no matter how large a
plot is cultivated

said.
The next day, instead of having one
white suit to wash he had three;
somebody, during the night, had
taken his clothes from his bag and
had wiped muddy shoes on them.
The same thing was kept up for
about week, until the mollycoddle
announced he really liked 70 do his
own laundering!
A bunch of US were on shore
leave one day and crowded a Norfolk
vaudeville theater.
One of the singers was somewhat
nettled that the boys should be so en-
thusiastic in their applause. She got
the idea they were kidding" her.
But she was brave performer and,
as an encore, she sang a sweetly SEN
timental song about ''little gray
mother"
You could have heard a pin drop
in the balcony, where the bluejackets
were sitting, and when she finished,
half the boys were wiping their eyes
with their handkerchiefs and didn't
care who saw them do it.

Interesting Work at Gull Point.

years old and is an ardent worker in
the Boys Poultry club. Besides the
twenty-five new chicks Perry Moclair
has two hens "a-settin," and is look
ing for another big increase in his
chicken population in a week or so.
Mrs. Moclair, Perry's mother, is
very much interested in canning and

could in cans this year, and wanted to
learn the new methods in drying

SERMONS THEME

E. E. Rice preached at the West
Hill Baptist church Sunday from the
text, go again seven times"
Kings 18:43. He said in part:
Elijah and his servant were on top
of Carmel. While Elijah prayed, his
servant went up and looked toward
the sea and said, "There is nothing"
And Elijah said, $50 again seven
times" And it came to pass at the
seventh time, that he said, Behold,
there ariseth cloud out of the sea
like a mans hand, and it came 60 pass
that the heavens were black with
clouds and there was a great rain.
Showers of blessings and time Of
refreshing came from the presence
of the Lord. The famine was over,
the flowers appear on the earth, the
time of the singing of birds had
come, the fig tree put forth her
green figs and the vines with the ten
der grape gave a good smell.

the date will be made by the Wash

however, Is the drawing made yes

of those who come before the board

Henry Schnittelein, "A German,

Kaiser; Renounces the Socialists

81 am a German, but I would will
ingly fight against my old country
now If I had the chance" This is
what Henry Scnnittelein of Duluth,
Minnesota, said this morning when he
came here trying to meet a farmer
who give him a job so hat he, as he
said, could do his bit. Mr.. Schnitte-
lein felt a little bit sore becausee he
had not been accepted when he Offer
ed his services to the United States
army a few weeks ago, but he had
come to the conclusion that if he
were not permitted to help his adopt
ed country in n way, another was
open to him. So he will "beateit to
the farm" he said.
Prior to the war Mr.. Schnittelein
was a farmer in Hanover, Germany
and shortly before the war started he
had come to this country to join a
que Iowa. From there he went
to Duluth this spring and heard
many tales of good farming condi-
tions in North Dakota. His ultimate
aim is to become a possessor Of a
farm, but he is willing to do chores"
for others until he has sufficient cap
ital. to invest. :
Mr.. Schnfttelein said that he had
always been a. member Of the social
list party in his home country, but had
renowned it since his party had be-
come ~outspokenly pro-war. Com
pairing American socialism to the Ger
man party, he said that "in this coun-

HAS
A BUSY WEEK
Many Auto Drivers Arrested
Must Have Headlight
DINNERS.

Special Agent o. T. Haakenson,
representative of Secretary of State
Thomas Hall, said today that he is in
the city to enforce the law requiring
two license tags on each automobile,
in accordance with the detailed stipu-
lations of the law and also specific in
structions sent him by the secretary
Of state who writes:
Now, as to the use of these tags;
each and every n must have two
tags displayed. The fact that they
have one tag in the seat does not
comply with the law by any means
They should be arrested. 1t is just as
necessary to have two tags on the car
in order to operate it legally as it is to
it mechanically. Push all violators to
the limit"
Mr.. Haakenson who is going to the
interstate fair at Fargo on Monday,
has been in this city since the open
ing of the state fair. He has made it
a point not to operate on the fair
grounds except in cases where an
offender eluded him and entered the
fair grounds before being caught.
Thnty-four offenders have been
brought before Justice Phil McLough-
lin and as a rule fined $40 and costs;
in special cases where mitigating cir
cumstances were found, a warning or
a smaller fine was deemed sufficient.
None of these cases has come before
Justice R. j. Purcell with the excep-
ton of a couple involving the display
ing Of fake tags. OF these cases, six
have been found, and Mr.. Haakenson
displayed the crude tag limitations
which proved to be the undoing of
the offenders. In other cases, Grand
Forks residents have been found to
use Minnesota licenses evidently be-
cause of the nominal difference in the
tax amount prescribed by. the laws of
the two states.
Since the new law prescribing head
light DINNERS for automobiles went
into effect, auto wners and drivers
have been amply warned, Mr.. Haaken-
son said, and they will hereafter be
punished in accordance with the law.
Several conflicting stories regarding
the activities of the special agent
have been current here the last few
days, n one informant said thai Mr.,
Haakenson had at least the names of
$50 offenders on his book. This state
ment Mr.. Haakenson characterized,as
a gross exaggeration, and in proof Of
his assertion he mentioned the fact
that only "a offenders have been fined
since the opening of the state fair,
Another story was to the effect that
special agent is being assisted by
a large number Of deputies. This was
also characterized as an exaggeration,
and the fact Of the matter is said to
be that the local police have entered
into cooperation with MI. Haakenson
to the extent that a member of the
local staff has been designated to assist
him .- .--aF.. F
