Nebraska Guards Enlist
Only for Duration Of War

Recruits to the Nebraska National
Guard will serve only during the war
emergency, according TO an order
from the War department made pub
lie by Colonel William Baehr of the
Fourth Nebraska regiment. This is
the most sweeping and by far the
most important order pertaining to
the state militia that the War depart
ment has made in many years. The
effect Of this order, according to
Colonel Baehr and other military au-
thorities, will tend towards bringing
the two Nebraska guards units to full
war strength within very short time.
Heretofore recruit to the Nation
al Guard declared his intention OF
serving three Years with the eolors
and three years in the reserve.
"It cannot help but stimulate re-
cruiting OF our two regiments" said
Colonel Bachr. N"This has been one
OF Our greatest handicaps, and we
have found 1t necessary to actually
compete with the federal conscription
law. No one can ever charge that the
Nebraska boys are not patriotic, but
they have been reluctant to join the
guards because of the enlistment
period. | have no doubt but that Me-
braska will have at least two 10 regi-
,nents when the regiments from the
various states in the Thirteenth divi-
sion are ordered to concentrate"

UNDERWRITERS FOR
EACH ARMY UNIT
Funeral Directors Recommend
to War Department That
Bodies of Men Killed in
War Be Sent Home.

The bodies of soldier boys killed III
battle will be embalmed at the front
and returned to heir homes with the
same service that one receives when
death is from natural causes at home,
according to the plan OF the Nebraska
and Iowa Funeral Directors associa-
ton, which is meeting here this week.
Resolutions were drawn up yesterday
offering the government plan for the
disposition of bodies at the battle
fronA Formerly the bodies of dead
soldiers were placed in zinc-lined
caskets and coated with quicklimc,
and when they arrived here for burial
they could r)t be opened.
1t is planned to have the govern
ment maintain corps of undertakers
with each unit of the service and in
cludc them in the medical staff. A
copy OF the resolutions telegraphed to
the War department follows:
lnasmuch as many lives will undoubtedly
be sacrificed in the case Of actual engage
ment In the European war. and we, the Ne
brnska and Iowa Funeral Directors assoca-
ton, believe that 1t would be AN object les
son in humanity and christianity, and
furthermore believing that the efficiency of
the army and navy would be increased ma
terially, by the addition to the health unit
OF the service. embalmers. who are versed
in sanitary saence.-be 1t.
Resolved, That such NJ corps of en-
balmers be maintained for service at the
front for the purpose of taking care Of bodies
there and properly prenaring them for re-
turn to this country. thereby alleviating tn
grief of mothers who give up their sons 10

made for the proper recognition of our pro-
fession and that means be provided whereby
our service may be most efficiently en-
ployed. (Signed)

any, was filed in district court
Wednesday morning by the House Of
Hope, Florence, home for aged
people.

the sum of $500, which was paid, the
petition states, through subscriptions
raised by the News and Nellie Nc

of the contract was that the old peo-
pie should work. They refused, the
petition says.

fused to accept back $40S.02, the un-
used portion Of the money for the
Lanes care.
The court is asked to order dispo-
sition of the money, now held in
trust. The Lanes are no longer in
