Hudson. Alaska Man.
is Timber Creek Boy

Many probably read with interest
the story printed in Thursday even
ings issue Of the T.-R. regarding Le-
land l.. Hudson. of Paxson, Alaska,
who travelled 5000 miles to report for
the draN at Camp Lewis, near Ia
coma, Wash. Hudson is<a former Tim
Der Creek boy, a son of William Hud-
son, and cousin of Russell Hudson
and Mrs. H. H, Hayne, now living in
Timber Creek township.
Hudson was forced to travel such d
long distance because the registrar tor
the draft at PaXson, where Hudson
registered. instructed him that 1t was
necessary that he should give his adj
dress in the states. Hudson's mother
now lives at Seattle, and the son
gave his mothers address. Hudson's
registration card was sent to the Sc
attic board, and May % Hudson was
ordered by that board to report for
service. He tried to get a two weeks
extension Of time because n boat did
not leave Fairbanks for Seattle until
late in June but he was ordered 10
take the first rain or be classed as
deserter. The nearest railway from
distant.
Hudson left Paxson May &c, going
forty-two miles by dog team in two
days. and Seventy-two miles in buck
board in two more days He took
mail barge on the Tanana river for 100
miles. arriving at Fairbanks June 2.
Then he travelled 900 miles down the
Tanana from Dawson and up the
Yukon. arriving at White Horse July
5. From White Horse he took the
railroad to Skagway. a distance Of no
miles. arriving there in time to get
Passage on boat for Seattle. where
he arrived July 9. He reported for
duty July &c at Camp Lewis, but It
was not until he presented vouchers
for travelling expenses of 500 that 1t
was learned The long distance he had
come to report.

SUPERVISORS SERVE NOTICE ON
CITY TO VAcATE COURT
HOUSE BASEMENT,
COUNTY WANTS THE ROOM
FOR ADDITIONAL OFFICES
Probable That County Agent 6u-
chanan's Office and Office For Mrs.
Gregg Will &c Opened in Room.
Now Occupied by tho City - City
May Have Trouble Finding Offices.

The offices OF the city will soon be
moved out OF the court house base
ment. The board Of supervisors has
served notice on the city to vacate the
1--WE offices it occupies in the west end
of the court house basement within
thirty days. Members Of the city
! council have no idea where suitable
and convenient offices can be found.
The board Of supervisors wants the
rooms for use of officers doing county
work.
1t Is quite probable that the offices
OF County Agent w. A. Buchanan and
MIS- Gregg. home demonstration agent.
will be moved from the anti room of
the county attorney into the basement
offices that the city will vacate. Roth
the county agent and Mrs. Gregg are
so badly in need OF room that the small
office they are In is scarcely large
enough to give room for their desks
and filing cases. 1t may be that there
Will be enough room Ii centralize all
OF the war activities, IN addition to The
food administration. In the offices now
used by the city.
To Partition Court Room.
With the coming Of the next two
registrations. and especially the second
one, the local exemption board is go
ing to require much more room than It
now has for office space and for filing
cases. This difficulty is going to be met
by partitioning off a part of the east
court room and dividing It probably
into two additional rooms for the
exemption board. One will be an
onice for the board members, and the
other Will be for clerks. several OF
whom will have to be employed after
the registration that is probably to be
held In September Enough OF the east
court room will bs left without parti-
tons to still provide ample room for a
place for physical examinations.
The moving of the county agents
office win give the, county attorney as
much room as he had before the county
agents office was established. Since
the latter office was opened the county
attorney has been cooped in a small
room. that has now become 80 crowded
there Is scarcely space to set about in.
City Probably Rent
The city Will probably rent quarters
in some building. Az It is hardly likely
It win attempt building city hall at
this time. But the space required for
its offices is considerable and It must
be supplied with one or more vaults
and a location for the clerks office
that will be convenient for the public
to reach to pay water rents.
The city has occupied OFFICES IN the
court house Basement for twelve or
more years. and Is the last of the
scounty's tenants in the building to
move. AS a matter of fact the super
visors have been without authority to
lease offices in the court house build
Ing. since q supreme court decision on
that point was rendered years ago. At
that time. or following 1t. all the other
tenants in the court house basement
moved out,

BOYS HAVE MARROW ESCAPE.
Auto in Which They Arc Driving
P'unses OF Grade and 10 Demolished.


P'unses OF Grade and Is Demolished.
Two Albion boys. Rex Houghton,
aged Is. son Of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred
Houghton. and Grover Price. aged II.
son OF Mr.. and Mrs. L. c. Price. three
miles northeast of Albion, had a close
call from injury. and possibly death, at
$3.50 Friday night when the Price car.
in which the boys weer driving to this
city. went off the grade at the Asher
creek bridge. two miles east of Albion,
and piungedi headlong into the ditch six
or eight feet below.
The Price boy turned the car out to
avoid mud hole at the west end OF
the bridge In doing so the car struck
the apporach OF the bridge. which is
high. in such. way as to lock the
wheels and pitch the car off the grade
to the north side. The car carried tho
bridge railing with 1t, and practically
was demolished.
Both boys escaped with nothing
more serious than bruises. Persons
who were by the scenet Of the accident
shortly after 1t happened said the es
cape of the boys WAS nothing short of
miraculous.

MAY. ESTABLISH
MOTOR SCHOOL
HERE AF TER ALL
Army Officers Make New Sur.
yey of SpringbrOOk Park
and viii Likely Reduce
Size of School.

South Bend may obtain a govern
ment motor training school after
all. although the school may be on
smaller scale than the one first
proposed for this city.
Capt. Newbauer and Lieut. r. r.
Estill, connected with the canton
ment at Valparaiso, spent Wednes-
day afternoon in South Bend and
Mishawaka and viewed the proposed
site at Springbrook park for a mo-
tor training school.
The officers say that Valparaiso is
the head division point in this dis
trict for the esta blishment and OPP
Grafton of motor training schools.
and that they were here for the
purpose OF further investigating the
proposed site for a training school
at SpringbrOOk park. Capt. New
bauer and Lieut. Estill appeared to
be well pleased with SpringbroOk
park. and they said they viii make
"a favorable report to the govern
ment.
To Reduce Size.
While Springbrook park is adapt
able for a training school, it IS not
adequate TO establish one accom-
modaung more than 500 men. They
declared that the buildings there
can be converted into barracks for
the men and training departments.
The officers also said that 1t will
be possible to obtain motor trucks
for use at SpringbrOOk park through
Valparaiso While in Mishawaka,
Capt. Newbauer and Lieut.. Estiu
visited II. (. Curry of the Mishawa-
ka I-ust x Savings Co. MIR. Curry
and Lieut.. Estill are old friends.
Up TO the visit of the two officers
here Wednesday afternoon, it was
generally believed that the govern
ment had abandoned its plans to
establish a motor training school in
South Bend.
Will Report Favorable.
The committee in charge of the
work here discontinued any opera
tions in connection with the estab-
lishment of the school following the
receipt OF a telegram from Congress
man II. A. Barnhart, saying that the
inability of the government to OBJ
tain motor trucks would indefinitely
postpone the establishment of a mo-
tor school here.
Capt. NewbaUer and Lieut.. Estill
declared that Springbrook park is
too small to accommodate 200
men, but that il is ample for a
school having an attendance of not
more than 800 men, and they will
make such a report to the govern
ment
