Chas Egan of Logan
Probably Killed in France

The relatives of Charles Egan OF
Logan, who enlisted in Company M,
of Devils Lake, are greatly concerned
regarding him. His name has ap-
peared at various times in the casu-
atty lists, at one time being given as
missing, at another as wounded and
again as having been killed in action.
No word has been received direct from
the young soldier since about October
l. Efforts have been made to learn
particulars but to no avail. They are
only able to report the same particu-
lars as given in the casualty lists.
Charles is brother OF. James Egan
whose death occurred in October. His
sister Miss Marie Egan, is an employee
at the Great Northern depot cafe.

A well known farm called at the
Independent office today and protested
against the high wages paid farm la
borers. He stated that laborers in
the towns are no doubt receiving no
more than they should receive, anc
perhaps not as much as they should
have, but he states emphatically that
a farmer cannot afford to pay 5000
month, board and washing for a ia
borer. A man working in town for
$125 month, could hardly expect to
save $4,000 a month and if he has to
keep up family he will have hard
time breaking even.

Probably no single organization
has done more to promote small
arms practice in the Army, Navy
and Marine Corps and especially
among the civilians, as has the Ma
tional Rifle Association.
When the United States declared
war in April of 1917, the National
Rifle Association was able to present
to the Army a great number of men
who were capable of instructing the
new Army in the use of small arms.
To-day the work of the Associa-
ton, which is semi official, reaches
from Maine to California and even
to the wilds of Alaska, there being
between twenty-three hundred and
twenty-four hundred clubs that are
affiliated with the Association and
are actively engaged in promoting
the art of rifle shooting among the
citizens of their communities.
These clubs, which are scattered
throughout the country, have either
ranges of their own or are max

Big Drive in New York
to Keep Football Going

New York, Dec. 1S.-The goal of
the campaign to raise a permanent
football fund at the College of the
City of New York was set at $50. 600
at a meeting of the Executive Com
mittee yesterday. The original
amount was $4,000. The new fig
ure was made necessary by the fact
that from estimates the committee
has received, the cost of equipment,
services of an experienced coach
and enclosing the Lewisohn Stadium
Will require at least $4,000, and
would therefore leave nothing for
the support of future elevens.
This last has been considered by
the Faculty Athletic Committee to
be the great difficulty to be overcome
before it can give its sanction to the
undergraduates petition for the re-
storation of football. A permanent
football fund, which will not only
tide the team over the first season,
but support succeeding teams. will
meet this difficulty, the committee
feels, and thus makes more certain
affirmative action on the petition by
the Faculty Committee.
More than $4,000 in pledges have
already been received by the Ex-
Necutive Committee although the
campaign is still three weeks off.
1t is confident that the alumni will
rally to the support of football at
the college, where it has not been
played since 1908. The undergrad
yates quota of $4,000 has not been
changed.
