oAkEs FAILS IN RECRUITING
ELLENDALE GETS COMPANY

Oakes has a recruiting station. and
is asking recruits for the North Dakota
National Guard.
Attorney Guy, who has been inter-
ested in the organization of Home
Guard, and who has tried after getting
"a signatures to get it some official
standing and equipment, received a
telegram from Adjutant General Satur-
day afternoon that Second regiment
of 1000 men for the state guard was
wanted and asked that Oakes organize
a company of 65 men.
Sunday morning H. e. Thomas and
James Huffman, a member of Company
G, Valley City, happened to be in the
city and asked that Oakes and Ellen
dale join in getting company. 1t was
figured then that neither city would
be able to get enough men in so short
time as forty-eight hourstthe time
given by the adjutant general for re-
cruiting. Private Huffman was willing
to transfer here and assist in raising
a company.
For the purpose of action meeting
was called by Mr.. Guy at city hall on
Monday evening and it was decided to
open recruiting quarters in the city.
Accordingly the front Office of the Rit-
terbush block has been open since
Tuesday morning. H. F. Eaton, of the
G. A. R., is in charge. w. H. McPher-
son, who has been in the service, A. p.
Guy and others kept moving all day,
but there did not appear to be much
response, only four having signided
their willingness to enlist on Tuesday.
This company must be ready for in
spection by July 10th and will be mus
tered into the federal service and join
the first company by July 18th. It is
not believed the action comes from the
national government, but from Bis
marck. Governor Frazier is out at
points in the state hurrying enlist
ment.
1t is guessed that Former Governor
White of Valley City will be colonel
of the new regiment, Adjutant General
Tharalson, lieutenant colonel, Hanley
of Mandan and Mudgett Of Valley City
majors.

] S MAIL SERVICE
TO Be CRIPPLED?
THAT is QUESTION oAkEs PEo
PIE ARE ASKING
Belief Is That Discontinuance Of Mail
Car Service from South But Fore
Runner Of What Is to Follow

Oakes and the towns between here
and Aberdeen are now supplied with
pouch mail from Aberdeen, in lieu of
the mail car service which has been
regularly run between Oakes and Sioux
City. The service still comes as far rs
Aberdeen. The order came from Chief
Mail Clerk Price of Aberdeen and
went into effect on July list.
Oakes people feel that this is but the
entering wedge to a disarrangement of
our splendid mail service. 1t is ru-
mored that the same order will be
made as regards mail to Jamestown
and Fargo on the Northern Pacific,
and also between Oakes and Wahpe-
ton on the Staples division. Nothing
as yet has been done on the 500 Line,
but it is felt that the discontinuance
of working the mail south will also re-
suit in further annulments along all
lines.
Oakes people did not become aware
of the cancellation of the service until
Friday and at once they got busy to
try and hold what we already have. A
mass meeting was called at the city
hall and matters gone over. Mayor
Slocum called the meeting to order
and was elected chairman. The mat
ter was discussed and resulted in the
selection of a committee for action on
the matter. The chair appointed w.
F. Rathman, Alex. R. Wright and J.tW.
Bush as such committee.
The committee at once sent night
letters to Senator McCumber and Con-
gressman Young at Washington tell
ing of the action and asking their as
sistance in retaining the service. This
was replied to next morning that our
| Washington representatives would do
all they could.
A protest was entered here and at
towns along the line between Oakes
and Aberdeen. Messrs. Rathman, Nc
Cartney and Guy, with R. T. Hannah
in his car, made the run to Aberdeen
Monday, picking up the petitions en-
route. 1t was also discovered at Hec-
la that the towns there had already
sent in protest to the South Dakota
representatives at Washington. Ed
itor Young of Hecla Joined the party
and went to Aberdeen.
There hearing had been arranged
before the Commercial Club Monday
noon, at which Chief Price was pres
ent, and the matter gone over thor
oughly. It was shown the detriment
pouch services into Oakes would work
to the city. Thirty-f1ve travelling sales
men make their headquarters in Cakes
on account of our mail service, and
they would undoubtedly move to
where better facilities could be had.
Several tons. of mail were transferred
here daily to the Northern Pacific for
points north and west. 1t means a de-
lay of at least twenty-four hours in the
service.
The petitions and all matters rela-
tive thereto have been forwarded to
Washington and the outcome may not
be known for several days.

Mrs. Mary crabtree

Mary Ann Ramsden was born in
Keighley, Yorkshire, England, Janu-
ary 9, 1928, and died at the home of
her daughter near Monango, North
Dakota, June "a, 1917, aged eighty
nine years, five months and fifteen
days.
On March 12, 1854, she was united
in marriage to Richard Crabtree at
Bradford, England. To this union
were born four children: John w.
Crabtree, since deceased; Mrs. Chris
tie Newton of Monango, North Da-
kota; Mrs. c. A. Morrison of Berkeley,
California, and B. r. Crabtree of this
city.
The Crabtree family came to Amer
lea in 1858 and located in st. Croix
county, Wisconsin. Moving to Dakota
Territory in 1888. they settled on q
homestead in LaMoure county, after
ward coming to Glendale.
Mrs. Crabtree's life was a long and
consistent profession and example of
Christian character. In her girlhood
she was member of the Established
Church of England, later identifying
herself with the Baptist church. She
Joined the Methodist church in New
Centerville, Wisconsin, but resumed
her Baptist identification on moving to
Glendale.
The funeral service was held at the
home of her son, B. R. Crabtree, on
Tuesday morning, Rev. James Wal
lace Gillespie preaching by her own
request from II Timothy 1-1S: "For
know whom I have believed, and
am persuaded that He is able to keep
that which have committed unto Him
against that day."
Her body was laid to rest in Ellen
dale cemetery, at the side of her hus-
band. who died about five years ago.
Mrs. Crabtree, until the last few
months of her life, which were dim
med by the approaching dissolution,
had been a woman of deep thought,
noble purpose and keen mental grasp.
Her mind was scintillant and radiant
as star. A woman or wide reading
and extensive self-culture, she pos
sessed the rare virtue of neighborli-
ness, which coupled with her kindly
disposition, spiritual helpfulness and
genuine genius in conversation, en-
deared her to host of lifelong
friends. Her opportunity for school
ing was limited, but, endowed by ma
ture with mind eager to know,
adroit to grasp and keen to perceive,
she had acquired, and largely satis-
fed, taste for the best in literature,
the broadest in history, the most pro-
found in philosophy.
With the mental self-culture, she
had not failed to cultivate the Chris
tian graces, which lend an ever-in-
creasing charm to advancing age.
Her spiritual perception made her
Christian experience definite, real.
living thing. Such life needs only
the rounding out of the fullness of
years to complete both its triumph
and its benediction on earth and its
preparation for the best that is yet
to be in the Life that is Immortal.
Her life among us sang Browning's
appeal:
"Grow old along with me.
The best is yet to be.
The last Of life for which the first
was made;
Our times are in His hand
Who saith A whole planned,
Youth shows but half; trust God;
oil vn0v no ofroidS

ship, is one Of the revelations OF ma
val construction contributed to the
world by American naval genius
Rear Admiral David w. Taylor, rec
ognized as one OF the worlds Lead
ing authorities on naval construc-
ton, is the man who originated the
center fire"
He Is now chief of the bureau OF
construction and repair. His job is
TO draw the intricate detail plans and
specifications for the nayy's new
ships, and after afioat, to keep them
ship-shape. No one branch of the
naval establishment is more vital
than his; perhaps none 80 much SO.
Admiral Taylor inaugurated his
brilliant career with the navy by
graduating with honors from the
Annapolis academy. and then enter
ing the great English naval acade
my. when England was recruiting
our midshipmen, Taylor carried off
the highest honors ever won at that
academy.
When the British cruiser Hawk
rammed the steamship Olympia in
tie Thames several years ago, the
British government sent for Admiral
Taylor to obtain his expert opinion
as to the cause of the mysterious
collision.
II is chiefly due to his efforts
that the present super-dreadnaught
can travel faster and with greater
displacement on the same amount Of
coal than the pre-dreadnaught could.
Taylor is one Of the meekest men
to look at in the world. He has the
face, bearing and general appearance
of a country preacher. He thinks SO
far ahead in warship construction
that he's generally about the same
distance behind in the matter Of pre-
vailing styles for MEMS clothing.
