prietors for a number of years, was
sold Tuesday to c. A. Anderson Of
this city. The l. X. l.. has enjoyed
a high reputation for the quality of
their goods and also the quality of
their service under the management
of Mr.. Saum, and the class of trade
handled by the firm has been of the
best in the city. 1t will be a great re-
greet to the people of Bookings if the
family decide to move from our midst.
C.. A. Anderson, the new proprietor,
has been in the grocery business for
a long number Of years, all of the time
with the Bee Hive Store. He is an
old resident Of Bookings and always
has had the full confidence of his Gus
toners in filling their orders. With
his knowledge of the wants Of Brook
ings people and the close attention to
business that has characterized his
work at the Bee Hive, there is no
doubt but what Mr.. Anderson will give
the best OF service and attention to
those who %patrOniZe him. The quality
of the merchandise at the l. X. l..
will be Of the very best, the service
will be all that the patrons can ask
for and it will be the policy Of the
store to have their satisfied customers
their best advertisement.
The Register has had very pleasant
business relations with +. N. Saum &

ALIEN FEMALES REGISTER

The registration of German and
Observation-Disclosures alien females is
to begin Monday, June 18th, and end
Wednesday. June Goth. In all cities
of over 5000 population it will be con-
Quoted by the police department and
in all places of less size the pOstmast-
er will handle the matter. The plan
Is the same as was used in the regis
tration of males in February, finger
prints will be taken and photographs
must be furnished. 1t would be well
for all readers Of this who know of
any who come within the law, to not
ify them of the regulation so that we
have as little confusion about fulfill
ing the law as possiple. II Is a per.
fectly reasonable proposition, neces.
sary for the safety of the country and
works no hardship on anyone. If it is
the misfortune Of any one living in
the United States to be an alien fe-
male enemy, they should gladly do
what they can to obliterate the stig-
ma. Register now and as soon as
possible after the war make yourself

Of MEN FOR
NEXT ARMY DRAFT
MEN TO BE SENT TO TRAINING
CAMPS THE LATTER PART
OF THE MONTH
III WILL Be BROOMMeS COUNTY QUOTA
This Will Take Nearly One-haIf OF
Men In Glass 81" Who Registered
In June OF Last Year

The local board have received the
notice from the Adjutant General Of
the number of who will be wanted to
fill the next call for men to go into
the army training camps. In the first
notice of the call the gross figures
were given and it showed Brookings
county as being assigned 1886 men.
This would have almost depleted
Glass One, as the local board only
have SOL men in that class. The lat
er figures, just published, show that
the net quota from the county is to
be 172, leaving 1S9 still in Class One.
This does not include the 1872 young
men who registered last week, as they
have not been given their physical ex-
animation, neither have they been
called on to fill out their question
naires. 1t would seem from this con
dition that all Of these new men who
come in Glass One will be placed at
the bottom of the roll in that class.
From all reports of the need for
more men at the front, it would seem
very possible that all of Class One
will be called in a very short time.
This being the case it will be neces-
sary for men who are o in neces-
sary occupations, and who are over
or under the draft age, to take the
places Of the men who will be called.
Under the law passed by the special
session of the legislature power is Civ
en- the Council of Defense to compel
men to work, and as the Provost Mar
shal General has outlined the classes
of work and occupation that are to be
considered necessary, it would be pos
sible for the Council of Defense to SUP
ply a considerable number Of men for
tie necessary occupations from those
now engaged in pursuits that the Fed
eral officer has decreed are not neces-
sary.

ABOUT WOUNDED LIST

In explanation of delays which may
occur in the notification to relatives
of the wOunding or death Of soldiers
in France, the adjutant generals Of
fee has issued a statement pointing
out that General Pershing at his dis
erection may withhold casualty lists
until positive they have nc value for
the enemy. Where possible kilograms
are sent relatives within "a hours of
the receipt Of a casualty report in the
United States, though the names do
not appear on published lists until sew
eral days later. Clerical errors, the
occasional necessity Of confirming
names by cable, incorrect addresses
or the removal of families, the state
ment said, occasionally cause delay on
this side.

Every year We have to remember
when the concert season starts that
must be quiet during the rendition
Of the music. People must not crank
their cars, children must quit loud
playing, conversation should be in low
tones and the music and the band
should be given respectful attention.
II there are any children neal you who
do not keep quiet, speak to them about
it and they will quickly understand
and follow your example of giving at
tention TO the program. Another
thing, don't be stingy with your APP
prevail after the band finishes a selec-
ton. Applaud them, that is their way
of knowing that you like to hear their
music. Even a tightwad can afford a
little exertion like clapping the hands.

of Mr.. and Mrs. c. A. Davis, who is in
Co. |, 3rd Engineers Training Regi-
ment, Camp A. A. Humphrey, Acco-
tink, Va, tells of a big athletic track
meet held in Washington lately. Two
or three soldiers were selected from
each company of the Navy, Marines
and Army at the camp and in the pro
gram of nearly thirty events members
of Harold's company won places in
five events. Harold won third in the
440 yard dash. At this big event Sec
Commerce and General Vignal of the
French Embassy, were the reviewing
party and addresses were made and
refreshments served. Harold says it
was a wonderful andh happy time and
all the boys who were privileged to
go enjoyed the entertainment and the
trip. Davis and Sundet are both at
tached to the truck service and get
ting along nicely. Sundet says it is
as hot as a circus down there, but
that he is happy just the same. Har-
old wonders why some of his old girls
in BrOOkings do not write to him, as
it is mighty lonesome when others are
getting letters and you are left out.

In Municipal Court

Judge Holmes in municipal court
yesterday afternoon imposed fine
of $100 against Archibald Kelley, gen.
eral manager of the Kelley Mercantile
company and the Reliable Credit COM
pany, No. 307 Paxton block.

judgment under a new law which pro-
tects poor debtors from unscrupulous
claimants. Kelley proceeded to gar
nishee Venuto's wages after having
been advised that the municipal court
would protect his claim.
Venuto has a wife and nine chill
