as their questiOnnaires are returned,

Indications are that the war depart

numbers. following the lottery drawing
in Washington, will be put on the reg

In the meantime, the registrants will

Walter Reed Named for Agri-

Draft Board


Walter Reed Of Armenia, manager of

successful business man as we'll as
farmer, has been nominated by the
U. S. department Of agriculture to be
member of the North Dakota indus
trial advisory board, which will assist

board. The appointments will come
from Washington.
The duty of this board will be pure
ly advisory. It's members will inves-

and will suggest to the district board
a course of action. The final decision,
as heretofore, will rest with the dis.

LAIST LEAVES
FOR FURLOUGH
Capitol Custodian Has Earned
His Vacation This Year

William Laist, veteran custodian of
the capitol, begins his annual two
weeks vacation today. "Billy" enters
upon his furlough with a good heart,
for he has just completed one of the
biggest jobs he has ever tackled at
the state house-the reconstruction Of
the old senate chamber-and every
one who has witnessed the transform
alton has declared the job a good one.
The senate chamber had perhaps
undergone change or two since the
original capitol building was complet-
ed back in the early eighties, but it
showed little to support such a con-
clusion when the last legislative as
sembly, in 1917, appropriated $500
for a new carpet. new curtains, new
chandeliers and other Improvements.
The old oil-lamp chandeliers, massive,
if not particularly ornate things, which
would have made short work of any
legislator upon whom they CHANGED
to fall, still supplied the modern H.
luminant for the senate chamber. The
turkey red carpet was old and worn
and spotty. The curtains hung in tat
ters, and the walls and ceilings were
and fissured.
The work of rehabilitation was not
until this summer. In the
meantime the price of everything had
gone up. and the carpet, which was
the biggest item. had doubled. Gus
todian Laist brought his ingenuity to
the front. stretched every dollar to
the breaking point, and finished the
job within the appropriation, and as
a result North DakOta's next legisla-
tive assembly need not feel ashamed
of its senate chamber.
