Mrs. Al:“Torgeson of Holly, N. D., Miss Edna Buckland of Duluth nnd Margaret™ Buckland of Pipestone, daughters of the deceased, were pres- ent at the funeral. Other relatives attending were Mrs. Mary Anderson of Aldrich and John Buckland, a brother from Pipestone. The services were conducted by Rev. B. D. Hanscom of the Methodist church. REG]STERED MAN CANT ENLIST IN REGULARS Numerous .inquiries have been re- ceived at the various recruiting of- fices throughout the state in regard to the advantages a man enlisting now has over the man who waits to be drafted. An erroneous impression seems to be prevalent that registered men can enlist at any time, and avoid being called by their local boards. Such is not the case, how- ever. Registered men, regardless of what class their local board puts them in, and regardless of the fact that their local board is willing to give them a release, cannot enlist in the army. Enlistments in the army must come from men outside of the draft age, namely from 18 to 21 and from 31 to 40 years of age. The only advantage the man en- listing has over the man who goes into the army by means of the draft is that he has a choice of the branch of the service he likes best. A man enlisting in the regular army is train- ed more rapidly, as the U, S. regulars are able to absorb from 35 to 50 per cent of their enlisted strength in new recruits. The men train side by side with veteran soldiers, and in conse- quence make much more rapid pro- gress than they would is surrounded by raw recruits, with little or no previous military training.
