COL. QUAIN MUST HAVE A BAEDEKER Some Bismarck traveler—or it may be a traveler outside of Bismarck— can do a patriotic act by letting loose of his French Baedeker. Civilian travelers probably. will not need Baedekers during the war, ana army officers do need them very badly. Lieut. Col. E. P. Quain, soon to em- bark for overseas service, has writ- ten ‘Dr. N. O. Ramstad his need of a Baedeker of France, which the war department prefers the officers to ob- tain from their own communities. Dr. Ramstad advises that he is prepared to pay any reasonable price for a ‘ Baedeker’s guide of France delivered in good condigion, and he requests ‘communications from anyone who can supply this much needed guide-book.

Lead burners are used to build lead tanks for chemical companies and the like. The edges,of a tank are brought together and scraped bright, a strip of brightened lead is placed back of this joint and then with a torch the overator melts a little strip of soft solder. It takes a great deal of practice and experience to burn the edges of the tankk and the re-infor- cing strip together without actually melting the lead so it runs out. The most difficult feature of lead burning is to melt an overhead seam together, for in this case the heat must be just exactly sufficient to melt the lead or it will run and drop to the floor. The work that is being done now does not renuire this overhead work, and T am told a good -many of the old-time plumbers can do lead burning. The pay at present is $1.00 per hour and this is liable to be increased at . any time. H. F. O'HAP™ Burleigh Countv Enrollment Agent,’ U. S. Public Service ; Reserve, Bismarck, N.

The first two functions, under the law, are with the surgeon general of the. army; only upon the man’s dis- charge from the military convalescent hospital, will the vocational education board take him over..

The law provides that the surgeon enpral may call to his assistance ex- ferts of the vocational board, who will tary with the civil phases of his re- education.
