IMPROVEMENT AT MAYO'S
From Monday's Daily
Harry Beal, who has been with his
brother at the Mayo hospital in
Rochester, Minnesota, for the past
ten days, returned home yesterday
morning, bringing with him a great
deal moiv pleasing news of the con
dition of Clarence Beal than has been
received heretofore. Mr. Beal states
that his brother, while still a very
sick man, is showing much more im
provement than when he first ar
rived at Rochester, even in this short
space of time the treatment having
been of the greatest benefit.
The case of Mr. Beal is one that
will require some time to make any
real show of improvement as his
system is badly run down and the
course of treatment and diets that
are necessary in a case of this na
ture will take time to give the pati
ent back his strength so as to be able
to fight off the sickness. The en

DEFENSE DAY IS
TO BE FEATURED
HERE JULY 4TH
At Request of the National Govern
ment Enrollment of Citizen
ship Will Be Taken Up.
The nationwide observance of De
fense Day on July Fourth will be
made a feature of the Fourth of July
celebration in this city, under the
direction of the R. O. T. C. olficers
wiio are stationed here and will be
in conjunction with the other festiv
ities of the day.
This defense day plan is one adopt
ed by the military branch of the na
tional government to take stock of
the national resources that might be
called into service in time of na
tional emergency. The first of these
defense day tests was held on Sep
tember 12. 1924, and here in this
city the test was very pleasing as
far as the number enrolled was con
cerned and the different elements
that could be used in time of mobil
ization of troops were also listed so
that, very pleasing information was
arranged.
This city is the headquarters of
Co. F of the 355th infantry, a skele
ton company of the national army
which will be called into active ser
vice in time of warfare and in which
will be placed in time of war the
men volunteering or drafted to fill
the organization to its full streneth.
The captain of the company is Har
rison L. Gayer.
The registration station will prob
ably be at the court house where citi
zens can enter their names to exprcB
their willingness to give what aid
they can to the forces of the nation
in time of warfare. The registra
tions, it may be stated, are not en
listments in the armed forces of the
nation and are not binding on the
men who make them, other than as
an expression of their desire to be of
some aid to their country in time of
national distress.
The check is made so that In each
community it can be learned the dif
ferent locations of supplies and quar
ters for troops in case of actual war
fare, to permit units to be drilled
and equipped at their home stations
and then sent to some main concen
trations camp rather than the meth
od that necessity made in the World
war of the vast system of training
camps. Under the new system it is
expected to have troops in proper
shape by short intensive training and
then sent to the concentration point
ready for service with other elements
of their main unit which in the case
of the national army would be the
355th infantry.
The registration on Defense day Is
purely voluntary on the part of the
citizen and it ia hoped that the re
sponse will be as large as that of
last year when 184 were registered
in this city alone, and the quota for
the county reached by a very large
figure.
At 1:30. July Fourth, the Defense
Day parade will start from the Casi
county court house headed by the
American Legion drum corps and
will move in marching order to Gar
field park where the address of the
Hon. A. J. Weaver will be given and
which will will touch on the subject
Defense day and the national need
for a clear understanding of the na
tional resources.
