OF the registratlon there is beginning
TO be a dearth of people eligible 10
act.
Under the law any person above
the age of l6 can act as an agent for
an old soldier but each person can
act but once. So many of the local
people have acted already for friends
or relatives or at the solicitation of
the Commercial club for those who
write that there are but few left in
the city who are eligible and some of
these refuse to act unless they are
paid fee Of from So to $40.
From the soldiers home at Fort
Leavenworth, Kan, over one hundred
letters have been received, and the
rest come from nearly every state and
city in the United States. Hundreds
of the people who come here to reg
ister for themselves also bear power
of attorney from old soldiers to act
as their agent. This is especially
true of the women; over half of whom
have acted as agent, and the records
of the opening show that there is a
much higher ratio of old soldiers reg.
istering through agents at this reg.
istration than at any previous one.
