June 5. This developed Friday when
the selective service law officer an
nounced the method of assigning or
der numbers to the new registrants.
There will be no lottery in Wash

EXPRESS RATES ADVANCING;
AFFECTS RETAIL BUSINESS
Notification Has Been Received of 10
Per Cent Increase.

The increase of 10 per cent. in ex-
press rates recently granted by the
interstate commerce commission to
all express companies operating in
the United States will affect retailers
in Dawson, as it will add some addi-
tional expense to the cost of doing
business. The advanced rates apply
only to interstate shipments.
Whether retail prices will be ad-
vanced to any extent to meet the in
crease in operating expenses caused
by the higher rates a Dawson mer-
chant would not state. He did init
mate, however, that some merchants
were making distant shipments on a
small margin and they may be forced
to advance the price of merchandise
to a certain extent.

THIS ADDRESS WAS
DIFFERENT
DR.. Max Meyer Gave Some Very
Interesting Inside History of
German Life.

DR.. Max Meyer of the UniVer-
sity Of Missouri, gave an address
last Saturday night at the
court house that was interest
ing and enlightening. He spoke
from the view point of one who,
born in Germany mad now an
American citizen, and has rea-
son to abide by his choice of
country.
In a practical setting forth of
conditions in Germany and Ger
man life and training before
the war he made plain his de-
ductions concerning the present
conditions there and the task
America has to face. He told his
audience Of the traditions Of
class and caste in his native
country and pointed out that
the sixty million ruled Germans
would obey to the last man, the
one million ruling. He minced
no words in referring to Ger
many's greed of Americas re.
sources and its designs upon u:
and our country should the
Allies fail to do less than give
Germany a thorough beating.
DR.. Meyers exposition of tn,
subject was sane and plain ant
appealed to his audience in
most convincing manner. Hi
suggestions were timeful an,
practical, insisting upon Amer
ica's inculcating A m er ic al
standards, ideas and ideals i
the life and education of a
who live under her flag and prot
f it from her advantages.
