WILL'RAISE FUNDS FOR
ARMY Y. N. {. A. WORK
o. p. HOvind Made Chairman of
District to Secure COntribu-
tiOns. Work Outlined.

AS it has taken the lead in every
movement to aid the government and
the boys at the front in the present
war, Glasgow will also do its bit to-
ward raising funds for the mainte-
nance Of the army Y. M. C. A..
At a meeting at the Chamber of
Commerce Monday night P. J. Corbin
Of Billings gave brief outline of the
work and a county organization was
formed with o. P. Hovind as chair
man for the counties of Phillips, VAL
ley and Sheridan.
Similar organizations will be form
ed in Phillips and Sheridan counties
and an effort made to raise funds and
aid the soldiers at the front in other
ways.
The army Y. M. C. A. is one of the
best institutions that was ever estab-
lished and has done wonders for the
boys at the front.
The local company of Montana
National Guard saw the work that
the Y. M. C. A. was doing on the
border and they all will testify as to
its worth.

RELIEF HEADQUARTERS
now OPEN TO PUBLIC
Local Women Undertake Cam
paign to Make Bandages for
Wounded in France,

The room formerly occupied by the
Commercial club in the Lewis-W -Wedum
block, was opened yesterday afternoon
as the headquarters of the Patriotic
Association of Glasgow. Under the
direction of Miss Tillman 'of the
Deaconess hospital, several women
learned to properly roll a long flannel
bandage.
All who volunteered to serve on the
workroom committee are urged to
meet at the headquarters at o'clock
on Monday afternoon, June II, to
arrange schedule of hours and work.
This is important if the work is to
go forward, and the women who have
little time to give can receive imme-
date instruction on entering the
work room.
On Tuesday afternoon at 3 o'clock
material will be on hand for gauze
bandages and congresses, and all
women are urged to learn to do this
work according to specifications.
Come to the Tuesday meeting so that
the first box from Glasgow may soon
go on its errand of mercy.

TWO OLD HOMESTEAD ACTS.

TWO OLD HOMESTEAD ACTS.
The war revives interest in two old
acts-that of June 16, 1898, which
provided that the service of a home
stead settler in the army, navy or
marine corps during the existing war
with Spain cor during any other war
in which the United States (might)
be engaged" should be equivalent to
residence upon the land claimed, and
cultivation thereon, for the same
length of time, and that his entry
should be protected against contest
during the period of his service; and,
that of section 2300, revised statutes,
which provides that person who has
served not less than Ia days in the
United States army or navy during
the existence of an actual war may
make homestead entry, though he has
not reached the age of 21.

5000 MEN IN VALLEY COUNTY
REGISTER UNDER new DRAFT Law
Registration Figures Almost Five Times Governments
Estimate. Shortage of Cards in EverylPrecinct
Patriotic Spirit Shown Is Commendable

Three thousand men in Valley
county presented themselves Tuesday
to be registered and subject to draft
for the large army Uncle Sam in
tends to raise and train for the war
with Germany.
The figures are a revelation, not
only to those who have kept a tab
on the steady growth of the county,
but to the entire country. The fact
that Valley county registered as
many men as counties supposedly
many times its size, is proof positive
that our county is making great gains
in population.
Tuesday, registration day, passed
off without mishap at any of the
polling places. Sheriff Powell and his
deputies were on the alert for any
anti-draft demonstrations, but there
were none. The men who are affected
by the conscription law, seemed to
look upon it as a solemn duty that
they present themselves for registra-
tion.
Government estimates had placed
Valley county's registration quota at
663 and only cards enough for that
number were sent here. How far off
the estimate was may be seen in the
number that actually registered. But
few hours after the registration
places opened, the supply of cards
had been completely exhausted, and
the Courier was appealed to for ad-
ditional ones. The situation was the
same all over the county; the govern
ment had underestimated the number
and there was a shortage of cards.
Sheriff Powell proved himself equal
to the emergency and sent automo-
biles out with cards to the precincts
from which calls came.
The day passed without the least
sign of trouble and the spirit mani
Tested by those who registered is GER
tainly commendable. There were no

slackers, but all voluntarily presented
themselves.
Fine weather materially aided the
registrars in their work. From z a.
M, when the registration places open
ed, until 9 p. M, the flower of Valley
county's manhood placed themselves
at the service of Uncle Sam.
In Glasgow, the registration places
were busy all day. On the south
side, from four to six registrars
worked steadily. A khaki cloth tag,
bearing the inscription: 81 have reg
istered, have you?" was pinned upon
each man as he left the registration
place. Every other man on the
streets seemed to be wearing a tag
and they did so with a spirit that
showed their true patriotism.
Going over the figures, it will be
interesting to note that Of the 1864
registered in 80 of the 81 precincts,
but 1885 claimed exemptions or were
exempt because of their occupations.
The number of aliens registered
was small, only 162 coming under the
conscription act. Of these % are
classed as alien enemies, Nashua
leading with 4 and Oswego and South
Glasgow coming next with 3 each.
There were only Is coiored persons
registered, all of these in North
Glasgow. Of these claimed exemp-
tions and 6 specified no exemptions.
