NATIONAL GUARD AND REGU
LARS' RANKS TO BE FILLED BY
CONSCRIPTION IF NECESARY
The enlistments in Company C of
the Fourth regiment in this city have
not met with the hearty reception
or result that it should, as this is one
of the best companies in one of the
best regiments in the federal service.
Those who feel inclined to enlist cer
tainly should make up their mind this
week to get into the ranks of the Ne
braska boys. It is intended, if the en
listments do not fill up the ranks of
the National Guard and of the regu
lar army to use the first of the con
scripted men for use in filling up the
regiments to their full war strength.
To those acquainted with army life,
the addition of conscripted men to the
ranks of the regulars and national
guardsmen it will not be the most en
joyable for those who are drawn by
lot to have to serve with the ranks
of men who have volunteered of their
own free will. It is far better, with
the necessity of filling up the regi
ments, to come forward and be placed
on an equal basis with the volunteers
who have offered their services for
the defense of their country, rather
than to be compelled to enter the regi
ments where only a few will be from
the conscripted army.
TO VISIT HERE.
Mr. F. B. Rys arrived Monday morn
ing for a two weeks' visit with his
parents, Mr. and Mrs. M. J. Rys. He
is employed in the electrical depart
ment of the Postal Telegraph com
pany at Chicago, having arrived there
recently from New York and eastern
cities, where he was in the employ of
the same company.

COUNTY DEFENSE
COUNCIL HOLDS IN
TERESTING MEETING
The Cass County Defense council
met Tuesday afternoon at Weeping
Water to take up several matters of
importance along the lines of the
preparations for the conservation of
the resources of the state as well as
for the adoption of plans for the
carrynig out of the conscription act
and register which is to be held on
next Tuesday, June 5th, throughout
the nation. The council will assist
the board of registrars in each ward
and precinct of the county in seeing
that every person between the ages
of twenty-one and thirty-one are reg
istered in compliance with the law.
The law is plain on the necessity of
registering and no "person will be al
lowed to avoid the register that come
within the age limits. This includes
all foreigners as well as citizens. A
heavy penalty is attached to the fail
ure to register and those who do not
comply with the law will face a term
of imprisonment as a result.
The defense council also took up
the matter of conserving the fish sup
ply in the streams of the county and
the urging of the use of more fish
by the residents of the county where
it was possible to secure them, there
by conserving the supply of meats
and other foodstuffs.
It was decided upon by the county
council to hold patriotic meetings in
the different communities and pre
cincts of the county at which compe
tent speakers will be present to urge
steps to place the country on an ade
quate defense plan to aid in bringing
the fullest resources of the country
to the front in order to insure' a res
toration of peace and the permanent
guarantee of the right of nations to
exist and work out their own des
tinies as they may deem best. The
county council has a number of plans
to develop that will be of much im
portance and that will add to the de
fense program of the nation.

MR. FARMER!
A half million dollars' worth
of perfectly good farm ma
chinery is thrown in the scrap
pile every year in Nebraska.
Farm work is the hardest
work there is on machinery.
Castings break, bearings
wear out, shafts bend and
break. Things get dull and
pill hard, gears rattle, smash,
bang and crash, paint gets dull.
Many farmers throw away
machinery and buy new, be
cause they arejiot aware that
we can in-nearly every case re
make such machinery equal
and in many respects better
than new.
We do not care how bad your
machinery is smashed or worn,
they all look alike to us; we re
make them as good as new and
save you money.
A dollar saved is a dollar
earned; keep your money at
home and you may get it back
again, besides it helps us to
employ home labor.
Put your machinery troubles
up to us; we have the best
equipped machine shop in the
country; if you don't believe it,
call and see us. Visitors are al
ways welcome.
We make everything in
metal. Now is a good time to
overhaul things for the spring
rush.
