DEANS GET INTERESTING
LETTER FROM THEIR SON

- The following extracts from let
ter recently received from Edwin
Dean who is at the front in France,
will enterest his friends.
my reason for not writing "itener
is that&.war at this time Ia very
pressing proposition. They say it
takes eight men in the various divi-
sions of the army to support and sup
ply one man at the front. Am lead
ing a great life that would make a
stake man with circus quit. Out
doors, rain or shine; night and day,
all spring and summer, sleeping on
the ground under tarpaulin.
Have. hiked twenty-three out Of
twenty-four hours several days in
succession and gone without sleep to
speak of for, weak at time. We
have figured in both recent advances
on two fronts. Have had some gen.
uine thrills, and blood drawn three
times but none of them serious
enough to evacuate me.
"Had a swim in a canal the other
day and was surprised at my endur-
ance. Am in perfect health and keep
quite optimistic. I find it strangely
easy at p. the front where nothing
seems to matter. 1t seems strange
that men should risk their lives dis
tributing cookies, etc., at the front,
and yet in the recent drive, up rolled
a Y. M: G. A. truck and every SOL
dier received cookies, cigarettes and
chocolate bars-and all gratis. In
Beauvais, the Red Cross has a house
conducted by the Smith college girls
where they dispense sandwiches, etc.
etc, by the thousands. The girls
are probably 25 years old and give
the place pleasant atmosphere.
They are chaperoned by an elderly
lady whose chief worry was that some
soldier would leave without the Sec
and cup of chocolate.
Zone time the road was so crowded
that we could not get our kitchen
through, and it looked like starva-
tion, until "B" battery got their kit
chen through, camoufaged under
tarpaulin to look like casion.
"Do not believe there is a fight
ing man in our division who would
trade places with any one. The very
trials that make us. groan, at the
time, make us proud of the unit, and
of our fellows. Another amazing
thing l have watched, the traffic to
and from around the front l did not
know there were so many vehicles on
wheels. Have seen a few thousand
French cavalry. They are an impos-

Two C0LORED DRAFTEES
ORDERED TO REPORT:
MORE GO NEXT WEEK

Whenever the provost general Of
the war department issues a draft
call, which also affects Beltrami coun-
ty, the local draft board always "de-
livers the goods" Hence, when the
chief of the draft called for two col
cred men to be entrained next Mon
day, for Camp Dodge, they will re-
port. -
One Of the twain is Bob" Hardy,
who who porter at the Markham
when he registered. He has gone to
Starkville, Miss, to visit his mother
and Chief Clerk Simons Of the draft
Eoard has notified him to report as
called. The other is L. H. Butler,
who was a member Of the 1nterna-
tionaf Raggers orchestra last winter.
lie is in Wisconsin and has been no
tilted to report to Camp Dodge, thus
making the quota of two filled by
he local draft board.
Tomorrow, two more will leave for
Camp Dodge as limited service men.
They are Jens Stortroen and William
Olof Magness, both Of Bemidji.
On September A., six more will leave
for Camp Grant, ILL.,, for limited serv-
ice.
Twelve more will leave September
6, for Camp Grant and this will prac-
tically finish Glass One for Beltrami
county. However, there are some ap-
r. cal cases yet to be heard from and
probably a few more of Glass One
may be. called, depending on the out
come Of the appeals.
Up to1the present, there have been
SO youths of FL years, who reached
that age since last June 5, who have
registered in the county. Only one
Erecinct is to be heard from and it is
rot believed this precinct will report
over two more.

clean 'em up slick before they are

He began at once calling each de-
fendant before the bench for final
statements before sentence was pro-

Most of the defendants waived the
statement or mumbled few indis-
tinct words.
Pc The courtroom was filled, although
deputy marshals endeavored to bar
the curious. Relatives of the defend
ants, largely women, occupied much
of the space. There was more agita-

NORTHERN NATIONALS
ANIMATED WAR MAP

The Northern National bank has
installed a weekly map series, show
ing by heavy red line, which
changes weekly, the exact location of
our armies The map is large and
hangs in the lobby of the bank, and
the bank officials will be very pleased
to have anyone, whether they are pa
irons of the bank or not, step in any
time and examine the map. 1t should
surely be interesting to study these
maps from week to week, and the
bank hopes that all those interested
will take advantage Of this oppor,
tunity.
After the war, the intention of the
bank is to present the series of maps
10 the local school board for future
use in the study of the present con-
fiict.
