CASE COMPANY BUYS $1,000
IN LIBERTY BONDS
Minot Branch Has Already Placed Its
Order for the Third Liberty Loan
Drive-A Patriotic Concern

The J. I. Case Threshing Machine
Co. has allotted $1,000 for their Mi
not branch for the purchase of bonds
in the Third Liberty Loan drive. This
will be appreciated by our citizens on
the part of this organization which
has shown it's patriotism in more ways
than one.
Marius Erickson, the local manager,
has informed all of the local employees
that his company will back every one
of them who desires to invest in H.
berty bonds and will not charge them
a cent of interest. The employees can
merely give the manager the privilege
of keeping a stipulated amount OF
their wages till the bonds are paid for.
The home office is urging the en-
ployes all along the line to buy as
many liberty bonds as possible.
The branch house at Fargo, which
is in charge of August Hanson. who
is the western manager, has shown
much enthusiasm in urging the en-
ployes to invest in war savings
stamps. This is the right kind of
spirit to show.
During the past year the ]. I. Case
Threshing Machine Co. has lost many
of it's best men who have been called
to the colors, and while this has Grip
pied them to some extent, they have
urged their employees to enlist. The
company's honor roll is very large.
Only recently, the Minot branch lost
S. Swenkeson, who has been here for
five years and who is considered a
very valuable man. Mr.. Swenkeson
is now located at Vancouver.

Date Second Draft Not Set.

Washington, Jan. 80. War de-
partment legislation tentatively
agreed upon by the senate mill
tary committee and designed to
provide additional draft machin-
cry was ready today for intro.
duction in the senate.
The bills provide for the regis.
tration of youths attaining the
age of 2l years since June 5,
last, authorizes the fixing of
quotas on the basis of Class l of
the new classification and en-
powers the president t o call men
needed for special industrial
work.
/ Provost Marshall Gen eral
Crowder in an explanation to the
committee said it was proposed
to hold a new drawing to estab-
lish the order of liability of the
new registrants. 1t is assumed,
he asserted, that most of the new
registrants will fall in Class /,
giving the class this year a total
of more than two million men.
From this class it is expected to
take the next and future drafts.
Secretary Bsker's plan to eX-
empt men who have attained the
age 81, disapproved by General
Crowder, i s not included in the
legislation.
Secretary Baker has disclosed
that the war department had not
fixed the date for another draft
and made clear that when he
told the senate committee that
the United States would have
half a million men in France
early this year and half ready
to go during 1918, he referred to
the divisions now in training
camps and those already in Eu'
rope.

By the side of each mountain ril,

Near the foot of Old Sideling Hill
Here the sun seems to shine more brightly,
AS it rises Ger the tall mountain top
Like it shone when life beamed so lightly,
When my bosom was throbbing with hope.
If had cot that fountain,
Where the purest of water did still,
would greet warm friend on the mountain,
That would stop at Old Sideing Hill.
Where the people are frank and kind hearted
With manners both simple and plain;
Often think of the time we all parted
Meier to meet in this wide world again.
Though most of my old friends are scattered,
There are some remaining there still,
And they III welcome the one who has wandered
