 Captain F. E. Witaee with the com ing of the week end is making one more and almost a final appeal for re- Counting married men who must be discharged, the company is still more than 30 men short of the number re- sduired to fill it's ranks.
 It may be stated on Captain Witness authority that probably next week this company will be called out for service. Captain Witl1ee knows the date, but publication of it is not per mitted-
 Thus on the eve of it's departure on what will be a history making trip the cry for recruits is again heard as it has been for the past month. The call for men at once is urgent, Cap tain Wit1ee says, and those who join now will have the particular advan- tage for all future time of having en- tered the army ahead of the compuI- sory service requirement. that seems sure to become a law at once. Hav- ing been a volunteer will always car " with it the honor of special distinc- ton and patriotism
 It is understood that when the com pany goes out again it will not be for bridge or property guard duty. Tn all probability the company will go di- rect from here 10 Fort Wright, Fish CTS Island, there to remain until or- dered 10 the place where it's services will be needed during at least the first period of the war.
 Captain Wft11ee is very anxious to meet all who have desire to enlist and will furnish all information as 10 the service.
