FOR
THE ARMY DRAFT
Provost General Marshal Issues
Bulletin of Instructions to
Registrars

1t is up to every person registered
under the CONSUMPTION act in obedience
to President Wilson's proclamation to
find just what local exemption board
has his registration card. AS soon as
the numbers are drawn, which deter
mine the order in which registered men
are subject to call for service, it also
is the duty of every person registered
to go to his local board and ascertain
the order in which he stands for call.
Each person should also ascertain what
his red ink serial number is, though
this does not Indicate the order in
which he will be called.
These and other instructions and
warnings are obtained in bulletin
just issued by the United States pro-
vost marshal general for the informa-
tion of persons registered.

been made and quotas have been as
signed to each state and each board,

whose cards are in it's jurisdiction In
structing them to present themselves
for examination. This call will be
posted at the Office of the local board
md the papers will be requested to
print it. A notice will also be mailed

sufficient notice to charge you with the
duty of presenting yourself. The law

qualified and file no claim for exemp-
tion, or if you do not appear for ply
sical examination, your name will be
posted to the district board as one who
was called for military service and
was not exempted or discharged. On
the 9Th day after call, or within two
days thereafter, copies of the list of
persons for publication, will be posted
in. a place at the Office of the local
board accessible to the public view,

WHAT is YOUR ARMY
DRAFT NUMBER?
Red Serial Numbers Are Ones
Which Will be Drawn by
the War Department

" Following is list of the young
men in the precincts Of this end Of the
county who are registered for the
army draft. The number opposite each
name is known as the red serial NUM-
Der and those who are drawn will be
designated by this number and not by
name. These numbers do not corres-
pond with the numbers on the regis
tration cards which really now have
no official significance insofar as the

is enormous and very easily OBJ
served.
The economic argument rcsOFted
to in its defense is utterly delusive.
The capital and labor engaged in
the industry and trade in stimu-
Tents and intoxicants could be put
to vastly better use to the benefit
of mankind. Without the use Of
these noxious products the reve-
nue. now raised from heavily tax
ing them could be derived with
far greater advantage from sources
fed by a productive instead Of q
destructive use of the same amount
of capital and labor. II may be
one of the blessings of the war to
raise standard of efficiency and
purify the incentives and motives
ia the application Of capital and
labor in providing for human
needs. The more they are turned
from useless or injurious objects
the better. New York Journal Of
Commerce.

WASTING FOOD FOR DRINK

A committee Of sixty prominent
citizens of the United States has
been formed, with headquarters in
this city, to direct an organized
effort to divert the grain supply of
the country, so far as possible,
from use Of brewers and distilIers
in making Intoxicating or stimu-
lating drinks, to turn it to pur-
poses of noursbing food. Just how
much Of the barley Of the country
is devoted to producing beer and
ale or how much corn aud rye, and
even potato. is spoiled to make
whisky, accessible ststistice do not
tell us; but on thebasls OF calcuIa-
ton or estimate the committee has
adopted as slogan: Save IL
600, 600 loves Of bread a day"
This is not work in the cause of
prohibition, and only indirectly in
that Of temperance. It's working
for moderation or abstinence in
drink for the sake of plenty Of
sufiiciency in wholesome food.
Pretty much everybody knows
that an immense amount Of whole
some food products are diverted to
the making Of drink that does
vastly more BARN than good. The
benefit IS comparatively slight and
very poorly adjusted. The iniusy

PRO.GERMAN TALK

Arrests on federal warrants for
anti American or pro-German ex-
pressions will be made, according
to the statement of Deputy u. S.
Marshal Chas. H. King, to whose
ears have come recently reports
that there are several in this city
who are open in their remarks of
criticism against President Wilson
and the administration and are eX.
pressing the hope that Germany
would invade the United States.
These expressions came, it is said,
from political has-beens. who are
now down and out. Officer
King states that he will lose no
time in arresting these parties and
putting them in Jail. Judge John
E McCall's last charge to the fed
eral grand jury in Jackson was
strong on this point.
The above is special from Jack
son and is reproduced here to show
the importance of guarding your
speech during these strenuous
times. There are people 50 in the
habit of criticising everything the
government does that it becomes
almost second nature to them.
They should guard their their
speech. If they are not patriotic
enough to hold up the hands of the
president, and give him and those
in authority credit for doing the
very best that can be done under
the circumstances. they should At
least understand that criticism,
complaining and finding fault ISL
very unbecoming and exceedingly
un-American and dangerous at this
time.
The Law against spying is very
severe. For an American to ex-
press sympathy for Germany be-
cause Of some grievance against
the president and his administra-
ton, creating sentiment for Ger
many, is nearly as bad as spying. |
and there are strong laws against
such conduct.

KNOCK OUT BOOZE

This is the time to administer
. finishing blow to whisky.
When we say whisky, we in
cIude brandy, gin, rum and al al
coholic liquors of the ardent type.
There are arguments in favor of
the use of light wines and beers
which have force and which are
approved BY thousands of sensible
and temperate persons.
But there is not one singleargu-
ment in favor Of making and drink
ing ardent liquors,
They do nobody any good. They
do millions of people harm. They
do thousands Of people irreparable
injury, destroying their strength,
their mental powers, their morality
and, finally. their lives.
The business of whisky is to
steal mems brains away, 70 ruin
their health. impair their efficiency
and dig for them graves in which
their friends and relatives are glad
10 see them hidden from sight.
One great difference between
whisky and light beverages is that
people can, and many do, use
light beverages with temperance
and moderation all their lives long,
while the user Of whisky who re-
mains temperate and moderate ID
its useall bis life long is seldom If
ever to be found.
The manufacture and use Of
ardent liquors is . species Of Urea.

crates citizens. and the strength

THE NATIONS CALI

The student of history reads
with peculiar pride the pages OF
history regarding the promptncss
with which the American people
have always responded to the ma
tons call. In the past, whether
in war or in peace, when q crisis
came, the response tOthe nations
call for help has always been
prompt and ample to meet the de-
mand. This fact stands as a mon
ument to the greatness Of our ma
lion and our people.
The country is today confronted
with a crisis perhaps greater than
ever before. What record will the
future historians make of the.man-
ner in which this crisis is met9
The patton has issued its call for
men. The call is for men in whose
veins flow true American blood,
men who love American freedom
and who are willing to serve and
sacrifice to maintain that for which
the blood of our forfathers was
shed to gain true American lib
erty.
We are not all called to arms.
Many of us will escape, perhaps,
the hsrdships Of war and the dam
gers incident TO the field of battle.
But there is not one of US who is
not called upon in some way to
serve and sacrifice for che cause
that should be dear to each Amer
lean heart.
The man who hides within his
own selfish shell and uses the
present crisis to make money, re-
fusing to give out any service or
make any sacrifice for the cause
for which our nation pleads today,
is a mighty poor American citizen.
Make every dollar possible, that
can be made honorable, but make
it with the understanding that part
Of it,at least, is to go for q cause for
which Others are called upon to
spill their blood. When you do
this you have responded to the
call and have done the part of a
true American.

The manufacture of ardent.

to destroy wheat. rye and corn
NOW is a CRIMINAL ACT.
The gaunt and dreadful figure
of famine menaces almost every
nation 10 the world; and soon
many must die and all must en-
dure privatiOn,
It is intolerable that the food
which might succor multitudes
who are about to suffer The agon-
les and torments of starvation
should be wasted before our eyes
in the mashtubs and stills of whisky
makers.
And it is even more intolerable
that in q time when all Of US are
required to put forth our best ef-
forts To STRENGTHEN the ma
ton, and when our young men are
called upon to face wars dangers
and terrors, some men should be
fattening their bank balances by
manufacturing and selling this
means of WEAKENING the ma
ton, and Others should find in this
business a method Of Sinking
wars dangers and terrors.
It will be a shame and disgrace
If clean, decent young American
boys have to 60 out and give their
useful lives to defend the lives and
the PROFITS OF whisky-makers.
The president, BY virtue of the
extraordinary powers that congress
will vest in him, can end whisky's
life and activities in America with
a word--with one brief executive
order.
There would be no argument,
no long-drawn-out legal process.
The whisky trusts hired advocates
would never have q chance even to
open their mouths.

Woodrow Wilson" and whisky's

the United States at all times.
But in this time he is also the
COMMANDMENT. chief Of the indus
trial army Of the United States.
Should he order the assault and
capture Of trenches bristling with
machine guns and rifles, our boys
would move forward calamity and
cheerfully to the deadly task.
If the president should order
the assault and capture Of the
trenches in which whisky turks,
the whole nation would move for
ward gladly to smash this enemy
Of religion, law, order and happi-
ness.
We hope and trust the president
will give the word Of command.
If our soldiers are forbidden to
have whisky for their own good
and the nations good, we can see
no reason why anybody else should
be permitted to have whisky or to
make money out Of this destruc-
tive and deadly liquor.
There are the trenches, Mr.
President.
Give the word and let the power
of the people, trusted 20 your
hands, sweep those treches clean.
