years.
Services were held at the home on
Tuesday afternoon, Feb. 5th at /

GREAT FORD PLANT POPULAR
WITH VISITORS

Detroit has often been spoken of
as the wonder City" owing to it's
marvellous growth in population,
doubling itself in the past seven
years. The automobile industry is
solely responsible for this miraculous
growth. Detroit makes more than
two-thirds Of all the motor cars made
in America and the Ford Motor COM
pany produces better than two-thirds
OF all the motor cars made in Detroit.
So probably the greatest factor In the
growth and general development OF
Detroit is the Ford Motor company.
About the first question the visitor to
Detroit asks is where is the Ford?"
Eighteen thousand four hundred and
forty-four visitors passed through the
Ford factory during the month of
October. Think Of it! They come
from every part OF the civilized
world, and go away in pleased
amazement over the aggressive ef-
ficiency they have witnessed. Prob
ably the highest tribute this effici-
ency could receive lies in the fact
that these thousands Of visitors are
conducted through the Ford factory
every month without in the least dis
turbing the even regularity Of the
more than $4,000 workers.

ARMY
Minnesota Must Furnish $500 Nc.
chanics in Shipbuilding
Enrolment.

The one immediate duty of all 10y
al citizens is to see that the $500
men asked of Minnesota for service
in national shipbuilding are imme-
diately furnished for enrolment.
They are needed now in the con-
struction of a great merchant marine
for the transportation of men, arms,
ammunition and food to Europe.
Every man and woman is urged by
the Public Safety Commission to use
friendly influence and persuasion in
aiding young men to realize the
course in which their duty lies.
Washington Urges Action.
kilograms cOuched in most urg-
ent terms have come from Washing
ton to Governor Burnquist and the
Public Safety Commission to the end
that every available agency in the
state be commandered in this work.
In Deferred classification.
Trained riviters, boilermakers,
punchers, machinists, blacksmiths,
carpenters, caulkers, millwrights and
other trained men can render no
greater service to the government at
present. While enrolment itself
does not exempt from draft. the men
who are now in the shipyards have
been placed in the deferred classifi-
cation and are receiving high wages.
Ships to Win War.
1t is pointed out by military and
naval authorities that i'm order to
win the war or bring a more speedy
allied victory and thus reducing the
number of American boys to be
called into action it is absolutely
necessary that the output of the
shipyards be increased to the maxi
mum production.
This registration Of men for the
United States Public Service Reserve
by which it is hoped to enlist $50 :
600 volunteer skilled mechanics for
shipbuilding, began on February 1st.
In many places Four-Minute Men
opened the campaign on January %.
While special drive is being made
at this time, Feb. 1 to ~, to stimulate
enrolment, registration will be re-
ceived any time after this period.
The enrolling officer in this county
is G. H, Cunningham, Sturgeon Lake,

DEFECTIVE FLUES CAUSED
$s39,73S LOSS IN STATE
LAST YEAR. SAYS
FIRE MARSHAL.

Defective flues and sparks from
neglected chimneys caused prop
erty fire loss in Minpesota of s33s.73s
in 1917.
This enormous loss is entirely
unnecessary ;" says George H. Nettle-
ton, assistant state fire marshal.
1T is one of the easiest things
in the world for fire to start from
defective flue, and one of the ea-
siest matters to be corrected. Such
fires are entirely unnecessary. 1t is
carelessness which is almost crimi-
nal at this time in the state and ma
tion's history to allow an accumula-
tion of SCOT in the chimney or to
neglect to see that the flue is proof
arainst accidental fire."
The losses mentioned were caused
from 156 defective flues and 251 ca
ses where sparks caused by such de-
fects resulted in fires.
in commenting on this loss Of more
than a third Of a million dollars in
one year from these causes. Mr.. Net
tletOn says that now-during the win
ter months-is the season when such
fires occur. and that every precau-
tion should be taken at once by every
householder. manufacturer or occu-
pant of factory or dwelling to see
that the danger is eliminated.

UNCLE SAM A GOOD EMPLOYER

The United States government has
more to offer men today in the way
of wages. opportunities and protec-
tion for himself and family in the
army than any other corporation in
the world can offer, regardless Of
how paternal its attitude to It's en-
ployees is. No employer In the
world looks after the dependents of
it's workers as Uncle Sam looks after
those dependent on the labor of his
soldiers for support.
In concise way Major John D.
Yost. Recruiting Officer of the Min
nesOta District, sums up what the
government does for the enlisted
men. AS straight salary propo-
sition. the enlisted man can earn
from $50 to $3.50 per month, with an
increase Of 20 per cent for overseas
service. THE idea" he states. that
the higher salaries are unattainable
for the average man Is preposterous
as the government has the money
and is more than ready to pay the
man who can hit the ball.
For the married man with fami-
ly, the greatest consideration is
shown. He is compelled to allot one
half his pay. or not less than SIS to
his wife. in addition to that the
government allows her an additional
SIS for herself, $25 IL there is one
child in the family. $3.50 II there
are two children. and five dollars for
each additional child until the maxi
mum allowance OF $50 is reached.
Further allowances will be made In
the case OF other dependent rela-
DIVES.
Free medical attention. warm
clothes and the best of food are pro-
vided at all times. Government COM
pensatiOn in the event Of death or
disability is more than liberal. rang
ing from SO for a minor child to
500 per month for total disability.
Government War Risk Insurance Is
procurable in addition, and is sold
at an extremely low rate. The maxi
mum amount Of insurance for any
one man Ia 10000. and while 1t Is
not compulsory that soldiers take out
insurance the government advises all
men to do so. Premium rates on In
surance range from fifty-three cents
a thousand, at the age of IS years. to
