Many Vacant Lots.
I'm view of the foregoing facts, I
believe that 2 movement should be
started in East Grand Forks looking
to the intensive cultivation Of avafl-
able vacant ground in and near the
city. Large numbers of lots whicn
are now growing to weeds could. with
little expense, be plowed and planted
with vegetables.
"In the past years numbers Of To-
cal residents have utilized their va

staged for the best kept lawns and

URGENT APPEALS
RECEIVED IN CITY
Uncle Sam in Dire Need of Many
More Men in Navy Yards and
Ordnance Establishments.

East Grand Forks postohice off,
cials continue to receive urgent calls
for more men to work in the govern
ment navy yards and the ordnance
adjustments Of Uncle Sam. Large
"men wanted" signs are now to be
seen posted on local postofice bulletin
boards.
That the government is badly in
need of additional men is indicated
by the hundreds of positions that are
listed as vacant. A total Of 73 ma
chinists are wanted at tho Frankford
arsenal, Philadelphia. alone.
AS yet but few local men have
taken an interest in the call to the
navy yards, even though the pay Of
fered is tempting. However, any per-
son wishing to apply fon any Of the
vacant positions may apply to the
East Grand Forks postottice for appli-
cation blanks, which are to be for
warded to tho place in which the ap-
plicant wishes to work.

the last congress there is a provision
for the construction of three coast
guard ships, each to cost $3.50, 900, ore
of which is intended for station at
Honolulu, declares Delegate Kalania
naole
But he has been advised by Captain
McCalister Of the Coast Guard ser,
vice that the great demand the war
has made on the shipyards of the
country has made 1t impossible to
have these ships built at this time.
The delegate thinks the building Of
the coast guard ships will now be
delayed until the end of the war.

BETTER POSTAL
SERVICE AT SCHOFIELD

Brighten. Lucien G. Berry, tenn
porary commander of the Hawaiian
department. has forwarded to Wash
ington recommendations for an ade-
Quate postoffice at Schofield Barracks
to handle the large amount of mail
received there daily.
1t has been a matter of complaint
among persons at the post that mail
is often delayed two or three days
after being sent from Honolulu. This
was not regarded as the fault of the
postoffice staff, but rather because
the size of the office was too small
to cope with the big business that has
developed from the increased army.
