SOLDIER OF THE SEA
TELLS BUSINESS men
OF MARINES LIFE

At the noon day luncheon of the
Commercial club today .. Corporal
Harold Hayner of the United States
Marine Corps cited some interesting
incidents with regard to his work
at Mare Island.
He detailed the regular routine
of the marine from the time he is
called out at o'clock in the morn
ing until the days work is completed
at 10 o'clock in the evening.
In describing his work since his
arrival there, some six months ago,
Corporal Hayner related some excit-
ing experiences In his squad there
was enlisted an insane man who, ac-
cording to Mr.. Hayner, had a six
year-old mind. He could remember
only some of the instructions given
him, and was considered a dangerous
man in the squad.
a night shift. He remembered his
someone approached. On this night
when Corporal Hayner approached to
change his shift, he was accosted
with the word "Halt." Upon halt
ing he waited for the words, "Who
goes there?" but they came not.
"Well," said Hayner, "what were
you taught to say next" The reply
was, "say halt three times and then
shoot"
Corporal Hayner spoke briefly of
the explosion on Mare Island and
answered freely questions that were
asked of him from among those pres
ent. He also gave out the informa-
tion that it was his belief that many
of the boys who were in training at
various stations have already been
sent to foreign shores.

The board did not cut this building
in the least and went ahead as far
as possible but the heavy expense
involved by the cost of equipment
left the amount voted short OF ac-

the board to ask sufficient money
to properly complete the building.

That a special race by some real

are being made to enter these in
this special race Friday.
Interest Aroused.
The above announcement will be

race fans and will be drawing card
such as has never been seen in this
section of the state. Everybody
loves a good horse race and the fact
that some of the horse owners are
willing to enter their steeds, regard
less of the size of the purse, gives
evidence of some thrilling events.
The distance is for one mile, twice
around the track, and the race will
be stepped in three heats, two out
of three taking the money.
Other Good Events.
The special race will, however,
not interfere with the trotting race
, by farmers horses. This event will
be a half-mile race, best two out of
three, which also takes place Fri
day afternoon.
In addition to these races Friday
there will be running race by farm
ers' horses, half-mile event, best two
out of three, and also a one-heat
pony race once around the track.
So many horses in action on this
day, in such a variety of races, will
draw crowds from many miles around
and indications now are that rec
ord crowd will attend Beltrami coun-
<ty's closing day of the fair.

The Bottineau courant. (Bottineau, Bottineau County, N.D.) 1895-1929, 1917-05-31

Practically not a drop of rain has
fallen in Bottineau county since the
last fall of snow. As a result there
is some alarm over the crop pros
poets. Winter rye, of which there is
a large acreage in the county this
year, is suffering the most. Farmers
are reporting the rye heading ont in
places and, unless rain comes soon,
this crop will be a failure as far as
Bottineau county is concerned. So
far none of the spring sown gran il
suffering, as there was a great deal of
moisture in the ground. Gardens are
not doing we'll at all, and without
moisture very soon, a great many of
Bottineau county's war gardens will
fail to contribute anything to relieve
the food situation. Frost has been
reported from various sections of the
state, but, while there have been a
few light frosts here during the last
week, the damage done in this respect
is not great.
