| A Yankee 7yick-An eastern ped.
lar lately desired accommodation
for the night at tavern in the
South part of the County but
from the prejudice frequently exist
ing against this class, our host for a
long time refused. At last, he con-
scented on condition that the pedlar
should show him a Yankee trick
before he left him. The offer was
accepted. On rising in the morn
ing, Jonathan carefully secured the
coverlet of the bed, which among
other articles he afterwards pressed
the landlady to purchase The low
price of the coverlet operated at
olce upon the latter, who insisted
that her husband should buy it,
adding that it would match hers
exactly. Jonathan took the money,
mounted his cart and had got fairly
under weigh, when our host called
to him that he had forgotten the
Yankee trick he was to play him
Oh. never mind, says Jonathan,
you'll find it out soon enough.

CALL FIRST CLASS
In A SHORT WHILE

uN n oubVNu uuAA
| Washington. Nov. 19.-Bes
available estimates indicate tina
the first of the FIVE classes int,
which all army draft registraut'
are to be divided will contain
more than 1000, 900 men, subjec
for duty with the colors befor,
any man in any other class will
be called up.
The five classes into which
the 5000, 900 men registered
and those who are registered
hereafter-are divided and the
order in which they will be call
ed for service was officially an.
nounced today in the Provost
Marslal-General's QUESTIONABLE,
which every registered man must
fill out and file.
1t does not exempt married
men as a class, but it does place
married men with dependent
wives and children far down on
the list of tables. In fact, the
questionable indicates that only
men Of the first class will be
called to the colors. except in the
gravest emergency.
The 14S questions, many or all
of which the registrants must
answer, constitute a arching
inquiry into each mans life and
fitness for service, and if lie
claims exemption he must show
why in minute detail. Failure
to answer within seven days af-
ter a man receives the questions
renders him liable to a year in
prison.
TO COVER ALL REACHING 21.
1t is regarded as practically
certain that Congress will take
up the question of extending the
draft law to coyer men who have
attained the age of Fl since it
was enacted. Should that be
done and provision made for the
registration thereafter of every
man as he reached that age, it
is proba ble that perhaps 100000
would be added to Class l auto
matically by next March. In
that event no present plans for
the army would reach the men
in Class 2.
Officials have already consid.
cred the possibility that Con-
gress will decide to take in these
additional young men. Some
fair system by which they may
be registered, classified and as
signed to places will be devised.
New regulations to be published
shortly probably will set a way
in which this can be done.
New regulations governing
passports for registered men be-.
come effective November 20. AT.
ter that date the nearest local
board may issue passport per.
mits without reference to dis.
trict boards as is now required.
Passports are not necessary to
enter Canada.
Following is Class l in the or.
der in which they are liable to
the call 4:
ORDER OF CLASS /.
Single man without dependent
relatives.
Married man, with or without
or father of motherless
who has habitually
failed to support his family.

gagged, family supported by in

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES,

| Inc German CLUB people of the high
school had one OF their accustomed
gatherings Thursday evening at the do.
nestle science rooms. In accordance
with the rules only German was spok.
en-. After various games were played,
light refreshments We're served
The members of the J. M. club held
their regular meeting at the home of
Miss Hedwig Brodersen last Saturday.
The ladies were present iii the after
noon and the gentlemen came in time
for supper, after which all went to the
basket ball game. g."
| The high school people are taking
much interest in the declamatory con-
Ftest this year. There are about seven
teen expecting to enter. The contest
will take place in two weeks.
| The high school basket ball team
was defeated at Sac City last Friday
evening by score of 80 to II. This
game was played with great disad-
vantages for the Denison team. In the
first place it was played in a garage,
which had a rough cement floor, and
at one end a stone wall. The ceiling
was only four feet from the baskets
and it was impossible to arch the ball.
Sac City also used somewhat different
rules in playing.
The local team defeated the basket
ball team from Vail Saturday, evening
by a score Of 80 to "a. This victory
deserves especial mention because the
Vail team was not strictly high
school team. Part of their players
were town people, one being a teach
er. The Denison team was minus, one
of its best players, Erwin Teut, who
did not play until nearly the end of the
game. Vail began scoring first and
for a time it looked as though the
score would remain in their favor, but
the Denison boys were full of pep and
at the end of the first half had made
9 goals, while, Vail had only goals
and free throws, making the score
Is to 9 in Denison's favor. The visit
ing team again began the scoring in
the second half and at the end had
made more goals and 1 free throw.
However, the Denison team had scored
in 10 goals and free throw, so that
the final score stood 80 to "a in favor
