CALLED OUT

The expected call has come for the First and THIRD
battalons Of the North Dakota National Guard to re-
turn to active service. The Second battalion was called
out several weeks ago. and it has been accepted as GER
tain that the other two battalions would DO called out
in the very near future. This call. therefore, causes no
surprise, and it will create little excitement.
1t has not been definitely announced where the
North Dakota troops now called out will be stationed,
though rumors have assigned them to a southern part
of the country. 1nas1nuch as the government does not
desire any more publicity than is unavoidable to be given
TO the arrangements for the distribution of troops. It
may be some time before we know to what part of the
country our men are likely to be sent
The North Dakota men made an excellent record
on the Mexican border. They We're not engaged In actual
lighting, but the work which they did perform was in
some respects more arduous because of its monctony.
The men were worked hard and they were among the
troops to be commended both for their proficiency In
drill and for their behavior in their own camps and in
their relations with the population Of the district IN
which they were quartered.
Grand Forks has one company OF infantry and one
machine gun company. These will answer tho call with
the rest They should be, as they will undoubtedly be
given such a demonstration Of the regard and confdence
Of their fellow citizens as will serve to cheer and inspire
them wherever they may be stationed.
