The Lefore County Exemption
Board will this afternoon complete
their final report TO the District Ex-

ed for service from the four hundred
and eighty six called for examination
from the draft list in this county.
The report also will show fully those
who were exempted because Of physi-
cal disabilities and dependents and
those who failed to report for eXanl-
nation.
SThe exact figures have not been
given out by the Board and will not be
until the report is completed abso-
lutely and is ready to 60 forward to
District Board. 1t is known however
that more men were found physically
fit and otherwise subject to service
than the required quota Of two hun.
dred and forty three men.
Counting the men who did not claim
any exemption, those who did claim
exemption and whose claim was re-
iected and, the men who failed to re.

Five of Battery's Best Leave For Leon

Five cf the best men in Battery c
will be absent from Camp Sam KEGS
Ter, beginning tomorrow morning, for
ninety days.
These men, Sergeant j. Lyon Gard
ner, Corporal Cole Burns and Privates
Monroe, McClurg, Jr., Steele Grow,
Wm. T. McClain, will receive from
Cart. Hulen this afternoon their three
months furlough and will probably
leave tomorrow morning for Leon
Springs, Texas, whera they will enter
the Officers Training Camp.
It is hardly likely that any of these
rlen will fail to secure commissions
from this training, as all are Of a
senior age for young man, well ed
ucated, of good habits and Industrious
workers. However, if the men are not
commissioned, they will report back
to Battery C, wherever it may be, and
will do their part in bringing up the
efficiency of the organization.

Others varied, but none were true.
Of course the men want their khaki

Il is thought that when they have faced
the army surgeons and the report is
sent back here as to the number that
have passed it will be found that just
about the county's quota will have
gotten by.
The local Exemption Board has been
hard at work ever since this work was
thrust upon them and the members
find it hard to keep this work going
and to attend to their other duties
also. Both Sheriff Carrot and Clerk
Sharkey Pate have been sick during
the time and Doctor Mathews, the es-

Of the Board, has been attending to the

CORN ELEVATOR
PROSPECTS GOOD
Y. M. B. C. Industrial Committee Will
Make Full Report at Meeting
Tonight.

At a meeting Of the immigration
and Industrial Committee of the
Young Mems Business Club at the
Club Rooms over the Handy Kitchen
yesterday afternoon at four o'clock
Mr.. ]. B. Haman, who was named a
committee Of one to get estimates on
the cost Of erecting corn elevator
here and to investigate sites for the
location Of such plant, made his re-
port. ...
After learning the machinery neces-
sary, the size house necessary and the
capital necessary the committee reach
ed very safe estimate as to the cost
Of erecting an elevator here. 1t was
impossible to estimate to the dollar
because Of the fact that drag and cup
elevators are sold ~ the foot and the
length of the ELEVATOR will depend
largely upon the situation Of the plant
and the lift necessary. The price
was estimated as close as possible
however, and gives the committee a
good working basis.
As to the site for the location Of the
elevator several have been looked q
and considered and it is probable thas
the needed place has been found. 4
will not require a large site, the only
thing necessary is proximity to tn
railroads and wagon space in addition
/ to the buildings.
The, committe will make q full re
port at the meeting Of the Club to
night.
