CAPT. PERSON BACK
ON FURL0UCH
Fort Riley Cavalry Officer Spending
Ten Days With Old Friends
Will Be in France Before
T Winter.

Capt. and Mrs. r. >. Person and
daughter, Elizabeth, have returned
from Fort Riley, Kan, and the Cap
tain is spending ten day furlough
at his stock farm and in this city at
the Union National Bank of which he
is the President.
The captain is now in charge of a
troop in the 311th Cavalry, having
been transferred from Camp Grant.
He is delighted with his work. "Pd
rather be Captain in the Cavalry than
Major in Regiment" he says and
ought to know for he has tried each.
He declares that Fort Riley is the
hottest place on earth, but the place
is ideal for training troopers. The
Reservation comprises $4,000 acres
and the country is rough, being ideal
for cavalry work.
The life of trooper is busy one.
The captain is up at 5 every morning
and he works until eleven at night,
his time being occupied every minute
of the long day. He thrives on work,
for he is as hard as nails.
Fifteen new Cavalry regiments were
organized last spring, and one OF
these, comprising about 1,5OO troop
ers, is stationed at Fort Riley: There
are los men in troop, with their
captain and First and Second Lieu
tenants as commissioned officers.
The troop is further made up OF a
first sergeant, mess, supply and stable
sergeants, six other sergeants, two
horse skoers, two musicians, two
cooks, first class privates and the
others are just privates.

things to learn. They have to first
learn the care of their horses, and
this is no small education in itself:
Then they have to learn to ride and
when considered that a larger part OF
the regiment have never ridden horses,
this IS some task. They do not
merely learn to stick to the saddle,
but have to learn to ride so that they
can stick to the horse by their legs,
leaving their arms free for tlghtlng'
They are taught to ride with STIR
rups, with the reins and without them
AS troopers equipment includes a
long straig ght sabre, rifle strapped
to his horse and pistol, he is taught
to become proficient in the use OF
all these weapons. He must learn
to guide his horse thru several con
trolls, for instance with Che relnS, WIZ
the pressure of his legs, etc. At
the Fort there is a large riding hall
with mirrors all around it. A troop
er may ride about this hall and see
by means of the mirrors how, ne ap-
nears in the saddle. One fellow ran
his horse clear thru one Of the big
mirrors.
The troopers have to learn how to
Jump hurdles a feet and 8 inches high
They jump over stone walls and tenc-
es. A French army captain VINO
trained them, was very proficient IN
the ta art, jumping with his horse a
hurdle, 6 feet and II inches high; N
The men at drill ride about 81
miles in a day.
CAPTAIN Person, of course does not
know when his regiment will be called
to France, but 1T is almost certain
that it will be before the snow flies.

ANSWER ATTITUDE

Speculation Centered on
Outcome of Germans
Retreat.

LONDON, oct 9.-The first inn
prcssion Of Wilson'S precedent con-
sideration of the armistlco Is some
what disappointing, especially to
fight-to-the-flnish advocates. While
all quarters recognize the desirability
of avoiding STRENGTHENING waning
German morale. which doubtless was
the motive actuating WilsonN unex-
pected leniency, there is con9.derable
speculation regarding what means
could be employed to enforce other
important conditions besides the IL
points il the armistice. is granted on

APPROVES PLANS
FOR WIDER WORK

At the meeting Of the Fargo board
of education held Wednesday even

superintendent, Arthur Deamer, TO
organize and conduct a night school
in the manner he finds best and to
proceed with the plans to equip and
conduct a cafeteria at the high school

convenient TO so home for lunch.
High School Cafeteria. -.
Mr.. Deamer presented plans for the
management Of the cafeteria, worked
out IN cooperation with Miss Hugh
ina Mckay, domestic science teacher.
A large part Of the planning and
much of the work will be done by the
pupils themselves. The students in
the domestic science classes will plan
and arrange the meals and the stud
ents in the commercial department
will take charge of the bookkeeping
and meal tickets and such other de-
tails as<would properly come under
their charge. One assistant will be
engaged to help in the preparation OF
the meals and the dishwashing.
1t is planned to have each day one
hot dish at a cost to the pupil Of ten
cents, bread and butter or a sand
wich, desert and a glass of milk at
menu may be ordered. The menu for
the following day will be posted each
day and students will be asked to
purchase tickets for their luncheons
one day ahead, to avoid waste.
The board appropriated $2s9.77 for
the purchase of dishes and other
necessary equipment for the dining
room. The domestic science room
will be used for the preparation Of
the meals and its present equipment
is adequate. The sewing room will
be used as a dining room. The cafe
terra will be opened to the students
as soon as the preparations can be
completed.
Night Schools.
The plans for the night schools
which will be opened about Get. Is,
include classes in the English Ian
guage, commercial and grade school
subjects and industrial training in
gas engine work, drawing and domes-
tic science. The board endorsed Mr..
Deamer's plans for the night school
classes which will be held Monday,
Wednesday and Friday evenings Of
each week at the Woodrow Wilson
building. To cooperate with the idea
of AmericaniZation the courses in
English. civics and the history Of the
war will be emphasized.
The city budget has set aside $1,000
for night school work which will
make $4,000 available as the state
contributes an amount equal to that
set aside by any city for night school
work.
School Enrolment.
At the end Of the first month of
school Mr.. Deamer reported 3,205 pu-
pills enrolled as compared with 3,0l4
at the same period OF last year.
