OFFICER MAKES
APPEAL FOR RECRUITS
J. r. Casson Returns to Grand Forks
and Gets Busy With Posters In
Business District.

]. R. Classon, navy recruiting Of
fcer. who has spent several days in
Crookston in an effort to secure re-
cruits, returned to the Grand Forks
station this morning.
The only man who showed a will
ingness to join the navy in Crookston
had but one eye and he could not be
accepted. He told Classon that he
intended joining the army reserve
hospital corps, to which he would be
admitted.
This afternoon Classon commenced
the work Of further advertising for
navy recruits, distributing posters to
many of the business places in the
city.
In making an appeal to the young
men Of the city, he says:
LAS war has been officially declared
and the navy is still short of its full
quota Of men, it is about time for the
young men OF Grand Forks to get
busy and pay the recruiting office a
visit. Able-bodied men of military
age and nt for service will go sooner
or later. Why not now? Do not
wait for the other man to go. Be
the first one. Start the ball a-rollins
and the rest will keep it rolling.
Young men Of Grand Forks. do not
let the fair sex beat you to it. If 1t
was only women the navy needed, we
would have been recruited to our full
war strength several weeks ago.
This is no time for the time hon.
ored custom of chivalry. women and
children first We want men with
good American blood flowing in their
veins"

Report from Director of
Work Shows Possibilities
of Intensified Farming.
500 P TO
FARM THIS YEAR
Plans for Extending Activi'
ties in Grade Schools of
City are Contemplated.

Miss r. A.. Hatherell, teacher in
physiography in the high school and
director of grade school gardens dur
ing the summer, is already making
her plans for the work to be done by
the pupils in gardening this spring
and summer.
The scope Of the work to be taken
up this year will undoubtedly be ex-
tended over that of last year., when a
splendid record was made. Miss
Hatherell has prepared an elaborate
report showing in detail just what was
done by the children OF the intcrme-
diate and lower grades OF the city
last year in the way of gardening.
Most of the products raised were used
at the homes Of the children, but 1t
they had been sold the profit would
have averaged at the rate of $270 an
acre. according to the report. Tho
total value of all products raised is
placed at $77S.50. This is a splendid
illustration of the advantages OF in
tensifed farming and discloses in a
asu the wonderful possibilities in
store for this portion Of the Red River
Valley.
Eighteen city lots and the greater
part Of two school premises were used
in the work of raising the gardens last
year., and as much, if not more land
will be utilized MIS- year. A total Of
AZ boys and girls from the Belmont,
Wilder, Washington, Winship and
Roosevelt schools were enrolled in the
work last spring, and it is expected
that at least 500 will take part in this
years work
In addition to AIT vegetable gar
dens. there were 100 beautiful flower
gardens raised by the pupils. 1t is
estimated that owe 500 worth Of
radishes were raised alone.
The flower gardens planted and
cared for by the school children have
always been a cry attractive feature
in Grand Forks and Miss Hatherell is
planning to surpass all other efforts

TOTEMS IN MARBLE
 TAKE PLACE 0F WOOD
Republican A. p. Leased wIre1

JUNEAU, Alaska, Sept. 9-Indian totems, for centuries carved in wood are now being carved in marble by the white man and modern tools.
 What is said to be the most perfect specimen of the Indian totem in Alaska, has been carved from a solid block of Alaska marble by James Hogan, of Juneau, and plans are be- ing made to erect the pole in a ceme- tery at Klukwan. The totem repre- sents the frog clan of the Chilkat tribe of Indians and five names of members of the tribe have been carved In the stone by Hogan.
 The totem was carved from a solid piece of marble weighing 1900 pounds and measuring six feet by three feet by one foot and one half. The pole is painted vivid green with white eyes and yellow spots. It represents the head of large frog just emerging from the top of an old stump.
 Natives of the frog clan are prepar- Ing to give a great potlatch at the tune of the erection of the stone pole ana It has been estimated that they will spend something like s4OO on the totem and the festivities to accompanv the dedication in the Klukwan ceme- tery.
 Hogan has already started work on other stone totems for the natives of southwestern Alaska.
