north of Burlington for the past six
teen years. She has spent a good
many years at her profession, that OF

the collegiate and the vocational. To
more easily train these men who were
pursuing their education, the govern
ment has taken advantage of the
equipment Of the various colleges
thruout the country.
For the vocational group, men who
have reached the age of 10 years and
who have not completed a high school
course but have completed an eighth
grade course are eligible, and will be
assigned to one Of the vocational
groups for training.
In the collegiate division will be
received men who have attained the
age of 10 years and who have COM
pleted a high school education and
are enrolled for a regular college
training,
A physical examination will be nee
essary for registrants in either divis-

L0nged for North Dakota

The following IN regard TO one Oh
the young men who gave his NE IN
the service Of his country, tells OF how
he longed for and looked forward to
his return to his mother and home. ~
A veteran of two campaigns at ~
years of age, Ambrose j. Walsh OF
jamestown, N. D., made the great
sacrifice in the July offensive.
"Well, mother, ! guess vacation TOR
me is thing Of the past, for the
time being, at least,' he wrote Mrs
Walsh, two weeks before she recelv-
ed the news of his death. "But when
it does come I am going to spend it
at home, and tell you all about France
England, and the war over there
Won't it be great! -
"When I do get back no more trav,
cling for me. Believe me, I've had
enough for long time to come, ana
North Dakota will be good enough
for me-"

ped to train both divisions, the voca,
tional and the collegiate.
At both colleges there have been q
large number Of applications. 1t is
expected at Fargo college that by the
opening Of the term there will be as
many enrolled as can be accommodate
ed, the equipment limiting the number
that can be cared for.
The agricultural college has also
received a large number of applca-
tions for both the collegiate and vo-
cational divisions. Those entering
the collegiate division must be en-
rolled by Oct. 1, but those enrolling
for the vocational group can be re-
ceived up to Oct. Is.
1t is probable that men Of 10 years
who enter the training corps will be
left in college for the year, but those
of 10 or more may be subject to reg
ular duty after period of three or of
six months.
The colleges throughout the coun-
try will have under their training an
immense number Of the student body
preparing for military service. In

acity of 10000 bushels and is to be
equipped with electric freight hand
ling devices, so arranged that the
loading of three railway cars can be
