DISTRICT BOARD
WORK OF CLASSIFYING APPEALS
OF NEW REGISTRANTS TO
BEGIN THIS WEEK.

Sioux Falls, July 22.-According
to Judge w. w. Soule, chairman of
the district exemption board with
headquarters at the county court
house. the district board will begin
the classification of the appeals of
the new 1918 registrants from their
local boards, either Tuesday or We'd
nesday of this week. The work of
classifying the appeals would have
been started sooner, the chairman
said, had 1t not been for the fact that
only 40 of the counties of the state
had mailed the questionnaires of the
appealing registrants to the district
board. The questionnaires are all ex-
pected to be here soon, however, and
the work of the district board will be
under way in the near future.
About 20 per cent of the 2S4 1918
registrants in Minnehaha county APP
pealed from the local board, but ID.
L. Mckinney. chairman Of the local
draft board, who originally classified
the registrants is oft he opinion that
few of the appeals will be accepted
for classification by the higher board.
At the present time the district
board Is busy with appeals of the
1917 registrants from the different
counties of the state.

SUSPICIOUS LOAFERS
THIRTY-FTVE MEN ROUNDED UP
AT MITCHELL.

Mitchell, July "a Thirty-five
transients were rounded up by the
Mitchell home guard under command
of Lieut.. Ferd Dingler Thursday
evening about 9:30 o'clock under or
ders of Mayor j. e. Wells. The men
were found sleeping in the Milwau-
kee railway yards and in the Jun
giles" and were given comfortable
places to spend the night.
All of the men of draft age were
asked to produce their registration
cards which they were able to do with
the exception of one, who declared he
had registered. He gave his order
number and draft board and the au-
thorities are in communication with
his local board.
At the mediation of Rev. William
Vincent, about 20 of the men were
quartered in the basement of st.
Mary's Episcopal church. Others
were placed in hotels and some paid
their fare to Huron in the hope of
finding work at once.
The opinion was expressed by
members of the home guard that
nearly all of those rounded up were
men honestly in search of work.

No yellow paint has yet been APP
piled in Volga, the plan adopted to
squelch disloyal persons being to

the silent" treatment they are made
to feel that their presence in the

until the persons given the silent"
treatment have packed up their be-

DIGS WAY To FRANCE
COLONEL ADMIRES A TRENCH
DIGGER AT CAMP FUNSTON.

Sioux Falls, July 22.-Hartvig Oh
son, a South Dakota soldier of more
than usual energy. virtually dug his
way to France.
South Dakotans who have return
ed from a visit at Camp Funston,
Kan, tell how 1t happened. Olson
was n of the men from Lincoln
county who went to Camp Funston in
one of the calls to the colors of Sc
lective draft men.
One morning the company to which
he had been assigned was sent out to
dig trenches. After they had been at
work for some time the colonel of
the regiment to which the company
belonged rode by to inspect the work
of the boys. He hailed them cheerily
and told them to stick at the work
and prosecute it the same as If they
were in France.
Olson, who is known among his
comrades as a man of great strength
and a whale" of a worker, went at
the trench digging with renewed Wig
or, welding the pick and shovel in
a name which fairly made the dirt
fly. Looking neither to the right nor
the left of him he soon left the other
members of the company away in the
rear. AS diggers they were only am
ateurs compared with him.
Olson worked so hard and furious
ly that when the colonel returned
there was a deep ditch across the
road and the officer had to stop his
automobile to prevent being plunged
into the ditch. The colonel asked
who was responsible for that yawning
chasm across the road, and Olson was
pointed out to him. The colonel
looked at Olson with a quiet smile,
then he said:
That mar needs no further train
ing and he Is out OF place here. Just
send him over there"
And in accordance with the order
Olson was sent to France, where he
is expected to rank as the champion
trench digger of the Allied forces.
