BERGDOLL PLAN
American Draft Evader Is
Ready to Become a Ger

Is Formally Declared.

Eberbach. Baden. Jan. 29.-Ger-
man citizenship papers for Grover
c. Bergdoll, American draft evader
for which he applied a number Of
days ago, have been made out and
are ready to be issued as soon as
the technical state of war between
the United States and Germany has
been ended. His chauffeur, Isaac
Stecher, already has been granted
citizenship papers.
Bergdoll has a cousin here, but
he and Stetcher virtually have been
living in Bergdolls automobile,
spending but one night in each
place visited. The authorities and
all the citizens are very friendly to
Bergdoll and resentment against
the Americans who participated in
the recent attempted kidnapping of
Bergdoll and Stecher is intense.
The fact that a woman was shot
through the head during the at
tempt has added to the excitement.
Carl Neuf and Frank thinner, al
legged American detectives, who
took part in the attempt against
Bergdoll, are being guarded care
fully and no one Is permitted to
see them. 1t is understood the
charge against thinner and Neuf
of disturbing the peace now has
been changed to attempted homi-
eide. The present whereabouts of
Bergdoll is not known.

The rifle range proper has solid
granite hills for a background and
is equipped with electric signalling
devices. Any range desired may be
used by the riflemen, owing to
the large size of the reservation.
A tour-room frame house is locat-
ed on the grounds for the use of
officers as a headquarters.
The country Immediately sur
rounding the range is ideal for
maneuvering of troops. To the east
lies the Gallinas river valley, to the
north is broken, billy country and
there is an abundance of level
ground. The plateau on which the
range is located makes an ideal
take-off place for aircraft. The
range was used for several years
by the New Mexico national guard
as the scene of it's annual encamp-
ment. 1t was selected as the site
for government operated civilian
soldiers training camp early in
1917, but the plan was given up
when the United States entered the
war and the civilian camps were
given up.
Col. j. ]. Boniface, U. S. A., ma
tional guard inspection officer for
New Mexico. Colorado and ART
IONA, visited the range recently
with Adjutant General James A..
Baca, and declared it is one of the
finest places for encampments and
maneuvers that he has seen. 1t is
likely his visit may result in a
large encampment being held here
this year. The fact that the tenn
perature never reaches higher than
80 degrees gives this part of the
state an an attraction for soldiers
who are compelled to engage in
drill and maneuvers under the

ECONOMIC VALUE OF PAINT
Great Mistake to Imagine That the
Only Use Of the Brush Is for
Ornamentation.

Observation In most localities
caves the impression that too many
buildings suffer from lack of painting.
A great many property owners seem
to assume that the use of the paint
brush is the special prerogatlve of the
rich. that II holds no advantage for
the average man, II he can forego the
pleasure of having ornamentation
about. But painting is not chiefly val
liable for ornamentation. 1t Is chiefly
valuable for sanitation, greater life,
better service.
While paint does, of course, serve
to improve the appearance of prop
erty. it Is far more useful for protec-
tion than for ornament. A small
amount of money and work expended
in keeping valuable piece of ma
chinery painted will greatly add to
its length of life. The same may be
said of buildings.
- Another useful object which Is ac-
. complished by painting is the i'm
proved sanitary coudition of buildings
and outhouses. The cost of such work
(painting) is small. the necessary
equipment is not expensive, and with
proper care this will last lifetime.
