FoLLrEs OF Blue LAWS.
Mandan, n. D., Feb. IL.
Editor of Tribupne:
The ministers state they have the
backing of the entire state to oppose
any change IN tire Sunday laws.
Forty thousand shooters and hunt
ers are not back ng the ministers in
their move.
The trap shooters and hunters are
asking to have the law changed SO
that they will not be state criminals
as in the past. The Sunday laws are
such that the milk man who brings
the milk for the dying baby is break
ing it, a COW can not be MIXED on Sun
day unless the milk is thrown away,
according to law. The ministers can
not, according to law. live, except
through charity, providing it is brought
to them on a working day, no money
can be accepted for services rendered
ON a Sunday and that is the real big
day for the minister. The minister's
are in favor of having law so that
If he, himself, wishes to have his aut-
omobile repaired or tank filled with
gas, it can be done, according to law,
for fear tehy might some day have to
take long walk, but they say nothing
about the milk man.
II the ministers of this state, against
their own wish, can not go out to
shoot at the trap or enjoy any other
healthful recreation, they have the
consent of an army Of 10000 trap.

not saying that they would not prove
themselves good sports, and have as
much of show to enter the pearly
gates at the end of their journey as
they have otherwise. Instead of COM
ing to Bismarck to play politics, the
ministers should stay at home, write
a sermon worth while, tell the public
that next Sunday will not be the usual
Sunday tea" party sermon, but some
thing real good for soul and body,
guarantee that the usual cork dry SER
mon is thing Of the past: that you

will soak in. Then and not until then
will the seats in the churches be fill
ed.
Another important thing must be
taken into consideration, and that Is,
sell, move or tear down the little old
church, build a foundation and new
church upon it ten times larger than
the old; perhaps then it will not be
large enough. This church cannot be
built by coming to Bismarck and ask
ing to have the public hog-tied or max
ing state criminals out Of them. Stay
to home, and at the conclusion OF your
sermon next Sunday, give a benedic-
ton something like this. Go out and
enjoy yourselves at any harmless and
sinless recreation; having good time
will make better men and women out
of you, and rs the day passes on you
will learn that life Is really worth
while, the love thy neighbor ~ thy
self will be refreshed, your worries

WILSON CUTS SHIP TANGLE
RearAdmiral Washington L. Capps To
Take Charge OF Building
Program.

Washington. - President Wilson
brought the Shipping Board row to an
abrupt termination by eliminating the
two principals = William Denman,
chairman of the board, and Major-Gen-
eral George w. Goethals, manager Of
the boards emergency feet corpora
ton, in charge OF construction.
The resignation of General Goethals,
rendered some days ago, was accepted,
and Mr.. Denmait was asked by the
President TO follow suit that the Gov
ernment's building program might 30
forward without embarrassment.
Edward N. Hurley, OF Chicago, for
mer chairman of the Feedral Trade
Commission, was named by the Presi-
dent to succeed Mr.. Denman, as chair
man OF the board, and cambridge
Colby, of New York, was appointed
SUI cessor to Capt. John b. White, OF
Kansas City, another board member
whose resignation, offered to the Presi-
dent month ago, also was accepted.
Rear-Admiral Washington L. Caops,
chief constructor of the navy, will sue
ceed General Goethals as manager of
the Fleet Corporation, taking imme-
diate charge of the building program.

MAY REJECT ONE
MAN IN FOUR
Dependents and Those Engaged
in Industrial Work.
ADD TO NUMBER EXEMPTED
Communities In Which There Will Be
FeWest ReJections-Residents OF
Suburban Sections Expected
To Yield Most Men.

observation-disclosures Of the first
selection boards to fill their quotas for
the selective draft army are eagerly
awaited by Washington officials be-
cause they will give the first definite
information as to the probable per-
centage Of reflections to be expected
among the 100000 registrants for
physical reasons or for dependents.
All available statistics indicate a
probable rejection of one in every four
for physical disability. In particular
localities this will vary greatly, but
the average for the whole country is
expected TO be between 25 and 80 per
cent. There is no available data as
TO dependents, however, or as to how
many must be excused undSr in
dustrial exemptions. -
1t appears probable that peculiar
results will be brought out in some
districts. IL the reasoning OF some
officials is correct, the lowest rejection
and exemption rates will be disclosed
In well-to-do communities, such as the
suburbs OF large cities, where men OF
comfortable incomes make their
homes. Sons OF such men, it is sug
gested, have had better food, better
care and better surroundings than the
factory hands of nearby towns and
they should be in better physical con-
dition.
AS class such young men could
hardly be regarded as indispensable,
officials say, in their civil, business or
Industrial capacities, and dependents
probably will not free as many of them
from service as Of most other classes.
In factory towns, on the other hand,
the rejection rate for physical dis
ability probably will be high. The fact
that the men are confined six days a
week at their machines undoubtedly
will have affected their physical con-
dition. Virtually every married man
of those registered in these places is
the sole support of his wife and chill
dren and such men cannot be taken.
Also If the industry in which they are
engaged is vital TO the carrying on of
the war industrial exemptions will run
high.
Only reports from selection and dis
trict boards in typical communities,
however can show exactly what is to
be expected. Roughly the War De-
partment has estimated that two men
must be called for every soldier ac-
cepted, but they realize that the re-
turns may tell far different story.

ARMY UNITS TO BE SMALLER.
Organization On Basis OF 10000 Men
Planned.

Washington.-Secretary Baker con-
firmed that in pursuance Of sugges-
tions growing out OF the conferences
of American Army officers with Gen
erals Joffre and Bridges, tactical units
of the National Army will be organized
on basis of about 5000 men in each
in place Of 24,000.
Generals Joffre and Bridges explain
ed that the smaller and more mobile
divisions used in European armies had
proved highly satisfactory. Co-opera-
tion of the American Army with those
now fighting in Europe would be sim
plified, they declared, if the divisions
were reduced.
Only minor changes in the lesser
units will be made, their personnel of
rank remaining virtually the same.

AlRPLANE BILL SIGNED.
Provides For 10000 Machines and
Army OF 10000 FIiere.

Army OF 10000 Fliers.
Washington.-The s640, 100000 Air
plane bill became a law Tuesday with
President Wilson's signature.
This immense appropriation is only
the beginning of preparations for the
campaign intended to overwhelm Ger
many from the air. More than 10000
planes are to be built as a first incre-
ment and there will be many thousands
Of aviators. The first task will be the
instruction of the vast army of Ameri-
can fliers.
Germany, realizing the danger of the
air campaign, already is feverishly
building airplanes to fight the fleets
coming to overwhelm her. The ele-
ment Of speed, therefore, is foremost
in building the American feet. This
feature was emphasized today in
statement by Howard e. Coffin, chair
man of the Aircraft Production Board
Of the Council of National Defense.

il is one Of the best in the United
States. We occupy the entire floor
on which our offices are located. We
have spared neither time nor expense
in fitting this up just as perfectly
as is humanity possible. Every mod
ern facility for the better perform
ance of painless dentistry will be
found here.
Sanitation is hobby with us.
We have put in very ample and ex-
pensive facilities for the perfect steri-
lization of all instruments. Every
operator and attendant is dressed in
spotless white at all times.
We use the very best materials
that can be bought. We have found
out long ago that these are the only
kinds of materials that will turn out
work that will give lasting and per-
manent satisfaction to our patients.
We give an ironclad guarantee of
satisfaction with all work that leaves
this office. This guarantee is signed
both by the operator who did the
work and also by l.. R. Clark, d. d.

doing business with the people of

to say that we regard it as by far the
most valuable thing we possess.
You may be sure that we would

When you come here our aim is to

you will send your friends TO us.
Come in and let our experts give
