Department of Justice

The Department OF Justice
announces, that:
A German alien enemy chang
ing his place of residence to an
other place within the same
registration district shall i'm
mediately report such change to
the registration officer of the
district and present to such
registration officer his registra-
ton card for the purpose of
having endorsed thereon
by such registration officer
the change of residence. A
German alien enemy who desires
to change his place of residence
to a place of residence within
another registration district
must obtain a permit. Such
German ellen enemy must pre-
sent himself to the registration
officer of the district in which
he then resides and make appli-
cation for the permit on a form
supplied by the registration
officer, and present his card to
the registration officer for the
purpose of having the permit of
change of residence, if granted,
endorsed on the registration card.
If the registration officer denies
the application, there may be an
appeal under certain circum-
stances set forth in Article XIII,
Paragraph 3, of the General
Regulations, to the United States
Marshall of the judicial district
for financial action.
A change of residence in vio-
lation of the Regulation subjects
an alien emmy, among other pen
alties, to arrest and detention for
the period of the war.
The registration officers who
acted in the registration will con-
tinue to act as registration officsi
for the purpose stated in respect
to permits for change of resi-
idence.

Shell Seed Corn BY Hand.

Seed corn should always be shelled
by hand, says the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, which ad-
vises care in every step connected
with seed selection.
After seed corn has been selected
from the most productive stalks as
they stand in the field in competition
with other surrounding stalks, and
stored in a dry place free from in
Sects and rodents, the job is only
half done. Shelling is one of the
most important of the tasks.
Seed ears should first be nubbed
and the kernels from tip and butt
should be discarded from the seed
supply The small kernels from the
tips are less productive than the 9TH
er kernels on the ear; the blunt,
tlick, rounded kernels from the butts
are just as productive as any of the
rest, but because of their shape and
size they do not plant uniformly
when used in corn planter with
other kernels.

winter without grain unless the
lambs are to be dropped before go
ing to pasture. All depends upon the
kind Of hay or other roughage used.
Legume hays stand at the fore
front as a roughage for sheep. No
other roughages approach them in
feeding values. The coarse-stemmed
hays like timothy, red top and blue
grass have very few leaves and
therefore are poor sheep feeds. Hays
having a large amount of timothy in
them also are undesirable. Not only
is timothy unpalatable to the sheep,
but it causes serious cases of consti-
patton. The dry timothy heads work
into the wool, causing irritation to
the skin, lessening the value Of the
clip and making shearing difficult.
When timothy or other coarse
stemmed hay is fed to sheep in win
ter quarters 1t becomes necessary to
use some supplementary feed to keep
the sheep in condition.

High School Notes
(By Dave WHITLEY

To add little excitement to the
routine of things the boys changed
coats last Thursday noon-and were
promptly kicked out Of the assem-
tly.
Friday morning thrift stamp and
war savings stamp blanks were filled
out by the student body. This will
probably be done every month and
the increase recorded. The rivalry
between classes will be stimulated in
this way.
The basketball boys received their
red and white soX last Friday morn
ing and made quite a stir when they
filed out on the gym floor to warm
m for the game with Phoenix Friday
night. The boys also ordered skull
caps to match the sox.
Coach King and Ray Clary hiked
over to Ashland mine Sunday.
A rousing serpentine was gathered
together and paraded through the
business part of town after school
Friday to advertise the game with
Phoenix last night. This game was
not scheduled to be played here until
the morning of the day it was played.
Harvey Watt refereed the prelimi-
nary game between the Boy Scouts
and the second team Friday night.
The second team did not have the
"walk-away' they had anticipated.
This is the week for the Junior
Red Cross drive, but the work has
been delayed.
On Tuesday afternoon, Lincoln's
birthday, all the classes were called
into the assembly at 2:30. After

coin, ending with plea for the

ernment and help boost. School was
dismissed after the lecture for the
rest of the day.

dent to the call of the government.
Lloyd Turner left Tuesday of last
week for Washington, where he has

termaster's department. Lloyd is

Edwin Fraser has been obliged to
give up basketball, at least for the
present. A slight affection ofsthe
lung is the cause of the trouble.

Disregarding the rain, the Civic

Don't Sell the Family Cow,

This might appear to many to be
good time to sell the family COW
or the family dairy herd, because
prices for cows are high and it is
easy to sell. But suppose you do
sell? What is gained? Prices of
milk and butter are high-seem

sell. Perhaps we are crossing the

Central Point
Has Service Flag

An occasion of more than ordinary
interest was the unveiling of a serv-
ice flag at the M. E. church on Sun
Gay, February 10, at II o'clock, con-
tanning 92 stars, for the boys who
have answered our country's call.
Long before the hour arrived the
seats in the church were all occupied
and standing room was at premium,
g number not being able to get far
ther than the door.
The pastor, Rev. Belknap, opened
the service as usual, and the patriotic
feelings of the assembly were arous-
ed by the singing of America by
the congregation, after which the Ep-
worth League girls of the High
School Glee Club, under the direction
of Miss Reid, with Miss Lester as
organist, marched in, singing "On-
ward, Christian Soldier" after which
they rendered selection which won
much applause, at the close of which
the flag was unveiled by ] ]. Grim,
q Civil War veteran, and Mayor w.
A.. Cowley. The lattern then made
the presentation address, during
which there were many tear-dimmed
eyes in the audience. Rev. Belknan
gave the response in a very touching
and inspiring manner Clarence
Meeker of Medford rendered two ap-
propriate selections during the serv-
ice, which were much appreciated.
Owing to a slight misunderstand-
ing in the plans, the tablet contain
ing the names of the boys had to be
omitted for the time, but will be put |
up during the week.

MANY YOUNGSTERS
LEARNING TO FLY

At the San Francisco exposition
two years ago we had thrilled to the
hum of Art Smiths aeroplane. We
had seen it go singing up into the air
at the call of the siren to height of
5000 feet. Our hearts had quick
ened and our breaths had stilled as
lie looped loop after loop until his
plane hung low over the Marina.
What Art Smith did at the exposi-
ton was not patch upon what that
plane of Uncle Sans, far up there in
the Texan sky, was doing. Like
swallow, it careened and swayed and
swooped. 1t stood still for an instant.
So did our breaths. Straight down
toward the earth it fell, twisting
helplessly on the way. We were too
terrified to cry out. We just stood
and prayed as best we might.
A laugh rang out from a group of
young aviators nearby. We uncov-
cred our eyes and looked up again.
The speck stood still again, or seemed
to, and then sailed on at right an
giles for another trip over the top of
the southern horizon. Shortly 1t re-
turned and began to tie bowknots in
the blue stuff of the sky. Tired of
this, it played dead leaf, twisting and
turning in the heavy autumn air on
is way to the ground. A thousand
feet from earth, it righted itself,
turned upside down and curved up
ward into the air. After which It
pointed its nose downward and diyed
back to Kelly Field, few feet from
where we stood and directly in front
Of the hangar The two brave lads

escaped toward their squadron quar-

What these boys did is not unusual
most any hour at Kelly Field these
days, where $1,000 youngsters-9O
per cent of them are under 24-are
learning to fly so that they may level
the Prussian pride of power. From
early morning until long after dark
comes on, the sleepy old town of San !
Antonio, browsing its way through |
the centuries under the smile of
sun which seldom hides its head ex-
oept when it goes to bed at night is
awake to the buzz of the aeroplane.
By the dozens these flying machines
swirl low over the cotton fields and
lands, high over the city's
patchwork spread of faded red and
yellow brick buildings squared here
and there with an odd new pile. and
up over the white and green resi-
dence district. At night, like fire
files, they dart through the darkness,
cne after the other, as il in pursuit
Of some far shooting star.-Jean
