THANKS HOME GUARDS

The Register is in receipt of a short
letter from a soldier at Camp Dodge.
One for who the Home Guards did a
good share of the stacking of his
grain a few days after he left for
camp. The letter may not be long,
but the sentiment is all there and the
boys can feel assured that what they
did for Harry Kennard is appreciated
to the very fullest extent. And as he
wants them to know that he is thank
full for their consideration and help,
we publish the letter as written:
Dear Sirs: | see from your paper
that there are a few white men in
Bookings at that. / wish to thank
them through your paper for the cour-
tesy showl me. Meaning the Home
Guards. Private H. Kennard.

A New Means OF Almost Universal
instruction In Military Affairs Will
Provide Men Trained For War

The war department has just out
lined to State College the details of a
plan whereby a~ble-bodied college stu.
dents over the age of IS are given the
opportunity to enlist in the army and
to obtain training in college until
they reach the draft age. The pur
pose, according to the announcement
received by DR.. G.. l.. Brown, acting
president, is to prevent the prema.
ture enlistment for active service of
those men who could by extending the
period of their college training multi
ply manifold their value to the coun.
try.
This plan will mobilize and develop
the brain power of the young men of
the country for the kinds of service
that demand special training. The
purpose is to provide for the import
ant needs OF the army for highly
trained men as officers. engineers,
uOttOIS, CuCllllStS dlIu duIlllIllStl dIOlS
of every kind. If the need arises for
the services OF these young men as
fighters, the terms of their enlistment
are such that they can be called by
the president on a days notice.
A new corps. known as the Stu
dents Army Training Corps, has been
created in the army to include all
such students. Young men under IS
cannot be legally enlisted, but they
may enroll and thus receive military
training with their college work until
they reach the age when they can
legally enlist. Every boy who enlisIs
in the Students Army Training Corps
will be a member of the army of the
United States, and will be provided
by the wal department with uniform
and equipment, bat will be on fur

lege year, will attend a six weeks
camp for rigid military instruction
with private's pay and be subject to
the call Of the president for active
service if the military situation de
mands. The policy of the government
will be to keep such young men in col
lege until draft age is reached-in
fact, the war department will have the
power to order them to stay in college
after reaching the draft age if their
continued study is desirable from a
military standpoint.
State College will encourage its
young men to enroll under the provi-
sions of the war department

MAKES GOOD TWO WAYS

In a recent copy of the Tribune,
county, we find an article on the sue
cess that an old resident of Brookings
is having in that vicinity. John Dok-
kent moved up there on his farm rath-
er late this spring and getting his
crop in late did not meet with the en-
tire approval of the farmers of the
community, they thought he was too
late with his work. But good work III
the planting and the season both ia
vored John and his crop has turned
out one of the best in the section.
Then again they did not have the
right kind of bridges up that way,
according to Johns idea, SO he put in
a bid for a cement bridge on the
north side of the town. Everything
seemed to combine to hinder John
with the work, but he persevered as
usual, and he has now turned over to
the township a splendid bridge over
which they are much elated. They
pay him a very fine compliment in
the write-up in the Tribune, and when
they know John as well as we do here
in Bookings they will expect nothing
but the best of work in any contract
that he undertakes 1t seems also
that he has c%aptivated the people up
there with his ventriloquism, and they
seem much pleased with his feats of
entertainment in that line. Johns
friends in Brookings are all pleased
in any success that m his way,
it.

of the French armies. | ask you to

BODY OF YOUNG
WOMAN FOUND

CHICAGO. Jan. 30.-The body Of a
we'll dressed young woman was found
In snow bank in residence district
Of the south side last night and the
police believe she was murdered by
being struck on the head with heavy
piece Of gas pipe.
A handkerchief with the initial "B"
is the principal clew which may lead
to Identification, according to detect
ives.
The fact that small sum of money
and some jewelry were found in the
pockets Of the girls overcoat, led the
police to advance the theory that she
was murdered by some one known to
her, possibly on account Of jealousy.
The murder was similar to the at
tack on Miss Martina Carlson month
ago in the same vicinity. She was
beaten into Inconsistencies with a
single tree taken from wagon.
Before her death Miss Carlson re-
covered consciousness. but refused to
reveal the identity Of her assailant, al
thought admitting she knew him.
