Marine week was ushered into Fargo
and every city in the United States
Sunday morning. The campaign for
recruits for this branch of the military
service will continue six days, closing
on the night of June Is. Fargo, ac-
cording to the recruiting officer, 10 ex-
pected to enlist twenty men, this being
the number allotted to this city.
Marine week started in with three
calling at the local recruiting station,
who were sent below for examination.
The report from the Minneapolis sta
ton is expected to be received either
Tuesday or Wednesday as to whether
they passed, there being some doubt
by the local officer
1t is the United States marine scorps
that in fact is both army and navy, and
yet, technically, 1t is neither. It can
Cooperate with the navy on naval
ships or with the army on land and 1t
can do some things by itself that Meth
er the army or the navy would be al
lowed to assist in doing.
In all of the American wars, except
those with the Indians. the marine
corps has borne an honorable and u
conspicuous part. 1t ought to be better
known and appreciated. But for its
modesty 1t would be. At present the
marine corps pay is the same as that
of men and officers of the army. 1t is
one of the most attractive of the gov
eminent services,

FOR THE STATE
j. e. Kaulfuss of Wisconsin,
to Take up Work in
North Dakota

Bismarck, N D., June 1.-THE state
highway commission is to have an eX-
perienced all-around field man and
publicity agent. ]. e. Kaulfuss. an en-
gineer formerly employed by the Wis
consin state highway commission. by
the highway commission of Maine,
former instructor I'm engineering in
the University of Maine, and more re-
Gently connected with the ONCE of pub
lie roads at Washington, will Join
State Engineer Jay w Bliss sta1 FRI
day. Mr.. Kaulfuss has had wide ex-
perIence In organizing the work OF
state highway commissions. and in adj
dition to being practical engineer, he
is good talker and writer on highway
engineering subjects. He viii spend
much of his time in the field, meeting
with county boards and explaining the
workings OF the new state and federal
highway acts.
Home From Meetings.
Assistant State Engineer p. w.
Thomas is home from a meeting with
commissioners in Mckenzie. Wells and
Foster counties, where 300 miles Of
state and federal aid road Is projected.
Change Location.
Because as now established much OF
the Meridian trail through Richland
county is not used as a post road, the
county commissioners have notified
State Engineer Bliss that the location
Of the road between Wahpeton and the
Cass county line has been changed,
to comply with the federal require
ments. The county is also asking for
state aid on the Meridian trail from
Wahpeton to the South Dakota line,
practically all of which is used as
post road. Altogether Richland county
has asked for $4,000 in federal aid.
A number Of counties are changing
the location Of roads recommended
for state and federal aid, in order that
post routes may be included. This ac-
ton is solving the big difficulty which
has confronted the highways commits
sion-that of making the counties re-
quests and the federal requirements
"jibe."
Veteran Engineer.
]. M. Hanson, city engineer Of
jamestown and county surveyor for
Stutsman, is in the state engineers
office cleaning UP some work which he
has done for Mr.. Bliss in Nelson coun-
ty. Mr.. Hanson formerly was con-
nected with the state engineering staff,

cheering.
