Babcock of the North Dakota school of mines, a member of the federal na- tional defense council. Need Coal. Dean Babcock urged that the neces- sity of purchasing and storing coal now be impressed upon every citizen of North Dakota. Those who do not make provision now for a fuel supply will certainly suifer next winter, stat- ed the speaker. He emphasized the importance of educating North Dako- ‘ta people generally in the use of lig- nite, and that a committee be named to consider transportation to and from the mines, to point out to the railroads where fuel will be most needed, and to receive from the rail- roads advice as to where it may be procured. Cities and schools should be communicated with at once, said Babcock, in order that our public buildings may not be left without fuel next winter. The newspapers should be enlisted in a campaign of educa- tion. “We must convince the people that if they do not prepare now they will be cold next winter, said the dean. Ask Counties’ Co-Operation. That the sheriff in each county be authorized to organize and arm units of the home guard was an important suggestion made by Dorr Carroll of Minot this morning. Home guard units are anxious to organize and arm for protection in many sections of the state, said Carroll, but under pres- | the emergency commission had been called and that all necessary expenses of the council would be forthcoming. It is planned to estadlish a secretary's office here in Bismarck, and he will be provided with a stenographer and clerical assistance required. The committee on publicity recom- mends that all possible information be furnished press correspoudents in Bismarck and elsewhere for daily pa pers, and that special news letters be prepared for the weeklies. Dr. B. P. Quain of Bismarck this morning told what the Red Cross chapters of. North Dakota.are doing, and Carl Rakow, a veteran :of the, Civil war, spoke of the vacant chairs in many North Dakota homes, and of the fine spirit which he has found pre- vailing among those who have given loved ones to the colors. Organization. The council organized late yester- day afternoon by naming an executive committee consisting of C. B. Wal- dron, E. J. Babcock, Dorr Carroll, V. R. Stickney, A. W. Bowman, H. M. Wheeler, F. O. Helstrom, C. F. Du puis and Mrs. Mary Darrow Weible, and by approving the report of the committeee on organization, recom- mending the appointment of the fol- lowing officers and, committees. Chairman—Dr.;\V. H.

SUFFER FROM PROPAGANDA OF LEAGUE AGAINST BOARD Best Instructors Leaving for In- * stitutions Not Embroiled in Cheap Politics Because of the repeated efforts of Governor Frazier to oust the present, board of regents, North Dakota's higher institutions of learning are los ing many of their best instructors. “T am satisfied with the institution and have no complaint to make of my salary,” writes an educator connected with one of the leading state nor- mals, “but I cannot do good work un- der the present state of continual agitation.” PRISONERS IN COUNTY INL REGISTER EARLY FOR SELECTIVE DRAFT Five Listed by County Auditor Flaherty—Many Sign Who Expect to Be Away added to ity—get Inmates of the Burleigh county jail, who “expect to be absent from their voting precincts June 5,” were among the first men in Bismarck to register for the selective draft. County Aud- itor T. E. Flaherty attended to this little formality yesterday, when he listed A- Williams, colored; J.’ B. Hughes, W. R. Bowens, colored; C. C. Ottosen and Alfred Borseth. Citizens who expect to be absent from their voting precincts next Tues- day and who have voluntarily regis- tered at the court house are: Frank Hayes, O. B. Hoskins, C. G. John- son, Winfield J. Wouliff, B. H. Marsh, F. R. Girbenham, Hartwick S. An- derson, R. B. Williams, Albert Eugene Ward, Alex McClellan and Harry Lang- ley, the last named of Driscoll. Hartwick S.

The sheriff, as the principal peace officer of the county, has a right to mobilize and arm guards when he regards such step necessary, and Carroll urged that he is the prop- er officer upon whom to confer this duty. Some man of mature military experience, but beyond the age for active military service should be found in each county, said Carroll, to take the leadership and drill these home guard units. The time may come, stated the Minot man, when these home guards will be needed: The national guard soon will be taken away; protection must then come from another source. Patriotic Organization. The committee on patriotism sug- gested that a patriotic committee be named in each county to consist of the county auditor, sheriff and super- intendent of schools as a means of procuring direct co-operation with the state council from the individual coun- ties; further that this county execu- tive committee under take in each county the organization of a commit- tee of 11 members, of which there will be one member representative of each of the eleven general divisions into which the state council is di- vided.

To pay $500 less is to postpone the day when you will own a quality car. Just let us punctuate a few remarks about the Chalmers. Take the wheelbase—117 inches. Plenty of size there. Then the 5-inch frame. No weaving of body or frame now iu crossing car tracks or turning a corner. Instead, severe rigidity—so severe that equeaks, rattles or chassis noises are not audible. Underneath the rear seai_a heavy, formid- able rear axle. Overhead a Pantasote top that comes close to finality—and with four bows; not three. A tilted windshield with plate glass. A front eeat that is only 13’ inches from the floor. A rear seat that is only 24 inches. Tell that to the women of your home. Better brakes—2 inches larger, if you please. And when you push down’ with phat right foot you get results.
