FINAL PREPARATIONS FOR
THE DRAFT ARE MADE
Plan For Drawing Approved BY
Secretary Baker and Work Will
Start Soon

AlthO complete reports from sew
en- states still were lacking early to-
day, Provost Marshal General
Crowder began final preparations
for the national lottery which will
determine the order in which ten
million registered men will come
forward for military service.
The plan for the drawing has
been worked out in detail and ap-
proved by Secretary Baker. 1t will
be carefully explained to press re-
presentatives before it is given out
for publication. The machinery for
the lottery has been arranged and
the only points undecided are the
exact place in Washington where
the drawing will take place and
the date.
1t was suggested today that a
committee room at the capital be
used. There are many questions,
such as wire facilities. which must
be considered, and it is probable
that General Crowder and the
Washington correspondents will
work out an agreement on this
point.
The government will be ready for
the drawing as soon as the last
state has reported by telegraph
that it's work is complete. If the
telegram comes in the morning the
drawing can be held the same day
Ii it comes at night, it is probable
the drawing will take place the fol
lowing day.
A resolution declaring that the
secretaries of war and commerce in
fixing the quotas of the states and
territories on the basis of registra-
tion and not on the basis of pOpu-
lation have acted illegally, and call.
ing upon them to furnish the pub
lie with their reasons for $50 ignor-
ing the express provisions OF the
cOnscription law" was introduced
today by Rep. McCulloch of Ohio.
Sentiment is growing in congress
in favor OF adopting some means
for making aliens liable for service
in order to relieve the burden of
communities with large foreign pop
ulations immune from conscript.
Bills along this line have been pre-
pared in the senate and the house
but many officials believe that the
drafting of aliens would be in vio-
lation of the principles of interna-
tiOnal law.
Registrants are requested to ac-
quaint themselves with the serial
number allotted each person by eX-
emption boards. The number
placed on the registration cards is
not indicative of the mans order or
liability. He must learn not only
the figure assigned him by the
board, but also the number of regis
trants in his district.

American BIRDNAN
Tells War THRILLS

From the American Boy.
Winning and holding the command
of the air in modern warfare Is very
largely matter OF superiority in num-
bers Of planes and pilots A deficiency
in numbers may be made up TO a GER
tain extent by a superiority in speed
of machines or skill of the pilots. But
the Germans and the Allies watched
each other very closely and neither
could develop any marked improve
ment in aircraft without the other
soon copying it or improving upon it..
So in the end It came back TO a mat
ter of numbers.
Up to March of 1915, the Germans
were masters OF the air They held
their advantage by superiority in
numbers. The British we're forced to
build up their flying corps after the
war began. By March of 1915, the
British planes and pilots began to ar
rive at the rate of from thirty TO forty
a week, and those of us who had been
at the front earlier found ourselves
reinforced until we could turn the
tables on the Germans. Soon we had
two planes to their one.
The bombs are suspended from
strings carried up and fastened over
a hook beside the observers seat in
the plane. He releases them simply
by christening the cord and allow
ing the bomb to fail.
It is not possible to secure any
great accuracy In attempting to drop
bombs on small objects The aviator
cannot. for instance. fly low or slow
enough over a trench to enable the
observer to drop a bomb into that
narrow space except by purest acci-
dent. You can understand this IL you
will attempt TO drop marble into a
cup while swinging full speed in a
high swing. Tho greater speed and
I immensely greater height of the
aeroplane add TO the difficulties.
But dropping bombs on such large

TODAY'S AID TO BEAUTY

Hair is by far the most conspicuous
thing about us and is probably the
most easily damaged by bad or care
less treatment. If we are very care
full in hair washing we will have vir-
tually no hair troubles. An espe-
cially fine shampoo for this weather,
one that brings out all the natural
beauty of the hair. that dissolves and
entirely removes all dandruff, excess
oil and dirt, can easily be used at
trihing expense by simply dissolving
a teaspoonful Of canthrox (Which you
can get az any druggists) in a cup OF
hot water. This makes a full cup OF
shampoo liquid. enough so it is easy
to apply it to all the hair instead OF
Just the top Of the head. This chem
ically dissolves all impurities and
creates a soothing, cooling lather.
Rinsing leaves the scalp spotlessly
clean, soft and plant, while the hair
takes on the glossy richness OF nat
ural color, also a auflness which
makes it seem much heavier than it
is. After a canthrox shampoo, ar
ranging the hair is a pleasure.
