ATTENTION.!
PATRIOTS
TOMORROW IS
REGISTRATION DAY
Patriots Will Register--0thers Must

Tomorrow between the hours of
Z a. m. and 9 p. m. men between
the ages of 18 and As except those
previously registered under U. S.
Army Draft, or men of those ages
now in U. S. Army or Navy SER
vice, will be required to register
for subsequent gradings in class
ifications according to liability to
Selective Service.
Selective Service is the own off
spring of The American Volunteer.
1t has neither exiled it's sire, nor
silenced his voice.
Selective Service has but shifted
the burden of the whole task of
fighting for our country from vol
unteer shoulders, and guided en-
thusiastic patriotism in the right
channels towards the quickest and
best results.
No! The day of the American
Volunteer is not past; for volun-
teer service is a matter of spirit
llIE w IIlIlLS HESS W uO.
1t can still speak; it can still act
on The Day of Selective Service
Registration.
The man, who, on the day on
which our country has commended
all men in America between Is and
45 years (both inclusive) to regis
ter for Selective Service, rises
eagerly, and hastens to place his
name on the Selective Service Roll,
unless he has already registered,
is an American Volunteer.
He is as much an American Vol
unteer as the men who shouldered
a musket in 1776, or answered the
first call in 1861.
A man volunteers in his heart.
Selective Service opens the way for
him to serve where he is best need
ed, and when. 1t safeguards an
over Jealous spirit from trying to
serve where it is of little use.
Let the volunteer spirit express
itself among the men Of America
whom our Government has decided
shall next register for Selective
Service. 1t will voice itself by the
readiness and quickness of it's re
sponces to the command of oul
country.
Our nation has set for itself the
task of registering thirteen mil
lions of men between the ages o.
Is and 20 and 32 and as years.
1t will register them, only if Am
erica's volunteer spirit speaks ant
acts.
The need of the hour is double
quick response. Our country mus
add more than two million soldier
'to the American army of today t.
beat the Hun back into his den.
1t will pick these soldiers from
the 100000 men who registe
tomorrow.
Register as early and as quickl
as you can.
Go prepared to give the vita
| facts about yourself. Answer tn
| questions of the Registerin
/ Board.
That will show a true voluntee
| spirit.

FORMER BISMARCK NAN
EFFECTS Big MERGER
George A. Hughes Now President Of
Electrical Company, Which Will
Operate Three Plants.

Bismarck, n. D., Jan. 10.-Friends
of George A. Hughes. son of the
Alexander Hughes, a member of the
commission which moved the Dakota
territorial capital from Yankton TO
Bismarck, and Of the first North Da-
kota constitutional convention, and
a brother of Senator z. A. Hughes,
president Of the Hughes Electric Co,
have learned through the columns Of
The Electrical Review Of an import
ant merger which the former Bis
mark man has just effected.
The Edison Electric Appliance Co,
which George A. Hughes heads as
president, is a consolidation Of the
Hotpoint Electric Heating Co., and
the Hughes Electric Heating Co.,
which takes over the domestic. or
household heating device business of
the General Electric Co. The new
company will operate three manu-
featuring plants-the Hughes fac
tory at Chicago and Hotpoint fac
tories at Chicago and at Ontario,
Cal. The General Electric CO. 3
heating device manufacture now
carried on at Pittsburgh will be re-
moved to the Hotpoint and Hughes
factories at Chicago. Commercial
headquarters will be maintained at
Chicago. The former Bismarck men
established the Hughes Electric
Heating Co. six years ago on a very
modest scale, and it was developed
into one Of the largest institutions
of it's kind In the electrical industry.

Chairman Not Certain Board Has

sen of Mandan of a right to recon
sign Wyoming Ignite to intrastate
points under the especially favorable
North Dakota native Ignite coal
rates, an interesting question pre-
sents itself to the railway commits

der consideration. I'VE are by nc
means certain" said Chairman S. ].
Aandahl this morning, that we
have any authority to fix or change
rates since the United States gov
eminent has taken over the rail-
ways. This may be a matter for Mr..
McAdoo to consider, and we intend
to proceed slowly until we are GER
tain just where we stand"
So far as the regulation Of rail-
ways is concerned, except in purely
local matters, the North Dakota rail
commission is a board without a
