INSTRUCTORS WANTEE
A chance to cash in or
army training received by
men who rose to commission
in the ranks during the war
is announced in an order
sent today to all recruiting
officers throughout the U.
S. A number of Sergeant In
structors are needed for In
fantry and Field Artillery to
be enlisted for the Regular
Army, but detailed at once
to duty with National Guard
units where vacancies for in
structors exist. Men of long
service as non-commissioned
officers especially those qual
ified as recruit instructors,
and former enlisted men not
yet re-enlisted are particu
larly desired for this duty.
The newly adopted system
of Army Schools has taken
so many “non-coms” for in
structors in trades or educa
tional subjects that the quo
ta available for military in
structors in National uGard
units is depleted and it is
necessary to go outside the
army and recruit the latter
class direct from previous
service men. Only men quali
fied to take sergeant’s ranks
are wanted. The pay is $45.
per month with addition for
rations, quarters and heat
which will bring the total
income to about $120.00 per
month, besides uniforms and
equipment, which are fur
nished by the government, j
In sending out the recruit
ing instructions Major Gen
eral P. C. Harris specified j
that men selected should'
have the necessary soldierly ■
qualities and be qualified for
the arm of service concern
ed; their general appearance
physical condition, habits,
reliability tact and tempera
ment must be such as to
make them creditable repre
sentatives of the Regular
Army in civilian communi
ties

SCHOOL NOTES
V
The most active relief or
ganizations agree that th'
need of the moment is to pr
! serve the rising generatio
! n Europe who wifi starve tr
death without outside aid.
' until they are able to be t&k
on care of by their own coun
ries. The work planned is
■ not religious, but humani
arian; the money acquired
by this appeal will buy food
to feed the millions of father
ess and motherless children
o£ Europe. Hooker, the
hairman of .this committee
states, “I would rather have
ihe American flag implanted
in the hearts of the children
of Europe, than flying over
any citadel of victory.” The
,-chool children all over £m
erica have done their share
towards this relief. In Sew
ard the school children have
given $33.05. The pupils of
the sixth, seventh and the
eighth grades, Miss Schwarz
teacher, collected $16.50 to
ward helping the starving
children of Europe. In many
cases, the money represent
ed some sacrifice made. Pat
ricia Ray very gladly gave
the money ($5) she received
as a prize at the New Year’s
Masquerade Ball. The pupils
of Miss Nash’s room contri
buted $5.50; Miss Triplett’s
class, $5.00 and the High
School, $6.00. Now the school
children would like to know
what the grown-ups of Sew
ard have done? _ H^ve the
grown-ups sacrificed any
, picture shows or have they
' gone without any smokes in
order to help feed these little
' foreign children who arc
starving?

' The first semester has
passed and those not tardy,
and deserving a half holiday
are, from Miss Schwarz’s
i classes, Marit Eide, Marjor
ie Neville, Thelma Tallasen,
I Sam Eardly, Lawrence Mc
j Neer and Harry Reville; the
ones from Miss Nash’s class,
j Sigrid Rosness and Myrtle
,Tallasen; from Miss Trip
lett’s room, Eleanor Kreft
Ing and Lillian Petersen and
from the High School, Wil
lard Shellhom.

Who says Seward doesn’t
have winter sports? If any,
one thinks so they should
come over to the hill back of
the school and see the assem
bly of promising young skii-1

word there should be!) who
come gliding down jthe steep:

relief to lame bade, stiff joints,
sprains, strains, soreness.
Penetrates without rubbrnt. All
glide—sometimes only the
skiis glide, and a boy is left
sprawling in the snow, while
his skiis sail on alone. Did
you know it requires skill to
step on the skis if you are on
a hillsde? One skii slides out
from under you while you
are getting control of the
other. If you don’t believe it
try it! The Revell boys and
Willis Perry are running
pretty close for the honors.
Who wants to compete?
JOE FLOWERS SELLS
Joe Flowers, the popular
