Such subpoena or order may be served by any officer duly authorized to subpoena witnesses, or by any person designated by the director for such purpose, and proof of the serving of such subpoena or order shall be by the return of such person or officer endorsed thereon or attached thereto. Each witness who appears in answer to a subpoena before the director or his agent, if so ordered by the director, shall receive for his attendance the fees and mileage provided for in civil cases in the district court in the county where such witness attends which shall be paid in the same manner as other expenses of the division are paid.

(3)

No witness subpoenaed at the instance of a party other than the director or his agent shall be entitled to compensation unless the director in his discretion shall so order.
