258 FIRST NUMBER OUT
Secretary Baker Takes Out Ini-
tiaI Misunderstanding Con-
tinues All Day Friday and
Throughout Night.
Long List of Numbers Given in Order
as Drawn, From Which Those Who
Will Be Called to Serve in
First Army Will Be
Selected.

Washington, July 21.-The drawing
for the big United States army was
not completed until early Saturday
morning. The drawing began at 9:45
Friday morning, and continued
throughout the day and night. Alto
gether 10000 numbers were drawn
from the big fish bowl. 1t was officially
stated that the first 1000 numbers
drawn represented more than 1,OOO,-
900 men, and it is not considered
probable that men representing any
number drawn after the first 1000
will be called before any exemption
board for the first army. The first
eight numbers were drawn respective
lyby Secretary of War Baker, Senator
Chamberlain of the senate military
committee, Congressman Dent of the
house military committee, Senator
Warren and Representative Kahn,
ranking minority members of the SEN
ate and house military committees;
Maj. Gen. Tasker Fl. Bliss, acting
chief Of staff of the army; Maj Gen.
Enoch Crowder, provost marshal of
the army; and Major General Mccain,
adjutant general of the army. After
the first eight numbers had been drawn
the regular tellers took hold, and
worked through until the long task
was completed.
In only a small number of the larg-
est districts will the numbers above a
few thousand affect registrants. Of
the 1867 registration districts
throughout the country the largest has
something over 1O,2OO numbers, while
the smallest has only about 1885, and
the average is about 5000. AS the
drawing proceeded, 157 numbers were
withdrawn before one low enough to
affect the smallest district came out.
1t was 126, placing 1867 men number
ed 126 on their local lists as 157th in
order of liability.
The following list shows the num-
bers in the order in which they we're
drawn. The first number in each case
represents the order in which the sec
Ond, or red-ink registry, number was
taken from the bowl Four numbers
are given in each line. Beginning
with the first number, which was
drawn by Secretary Baker.

NEIL O'BRlEN BACK WITH

Neil O'Brien brought his MINISTRIES
back to the Atlanta Theatre Tues

q distinct style that might suffer II
any change were eXer attempted n
certainly no Atlanta audience could
wish for them to be any funnicr
than they are now. In that event
the audience might suffer from an
overcharge of mirth.
Rose has his popular banjo act
which has brought him such a follow

away Tuesday night to an applauding
audience that sought earnestly to
overwork the funny a Lassee
White came on with his fun in Il
screaming skit with which the pro-
gram closed. 1t is a burlesque on

the able comedian, Lassee.
Neil O'Brien himself has an I'M
usually clever jitney bus stunt, which
has enough of the slap-stick to make
it score greatly.
The programs opens with the usual
minstrel first part, with it's array OF
lyric tenors and bullfrog basso men.

WHY CHILDREN GO WRONG

thousand cases during the past two years.
But Chicago is no exception. Our country
today teens with unhappy homes The
divorce courts work overtime, yet they re-
veal but very small fraction of the woes
of desolated families. Homes that should
be heavens Of peace and love are bells of
strife and hatred. There are even Christ
ian homes, so called, where novels are read
more than the Bible; where RANGES are COM
mon, and prayer is unknown.
In the country, as in the city, hundreds
OF young boys and girls 60 wrong most
OF them because they have never known a
happy home The American Statictical AS
ISOLATION recently made study of such
moral shipwreck as ruined six hundred
Philadelphia girls. The association thus
tersely states the result of it's research:
1.-The principle results Of the stury were to
show that in large majority Of cases, the
girls came from families in which the re-
latlon between parents was abnormal or
where one Of the parents was away from

A faithful father, devoted mother. a

forces for lack Of which boys and girls 90
