      MANITOBA FREE  PRESS WINNIPEG, SATURDAY JANUARY 12, 1918.


      Must Do His Share.  Everybody shall undertake his share in protecting the country, and everyone will have to make sacrifices,” said Judge Haggart  in dealing with the appeal of John G. Graboski, which came before him yesterday.  “I know that, my lord,” answered the appellant, “but could I not be given until June 1 to aid my father in seeding?”  “No, there are two boys on the farm and men are too badly needed in the army.”  John G. Graboski is a farmer’s son living at Tolstoi, and he tried to impress the judge with his value in the production of the country.
