The Bourbon news. [volume] (Paris, Ky.) 1895-19??, 1917-08-03
MASTERLIST RECEIVED BY Elk.
EMPTI0N BOARD.

All Is III readiness Tor the calling
to the colors of the quota of men to
be taken from Bourbon county for
the United States army, drafted I'M
der the provisions of the CONSUMPTION
act.
The masterlist, which contains the
official list of those who are to be
called, and which experienced consid-
cradle delay in transmission through
the mails, arrived in Paris, Tuesday,
and was Immediately taken in charge
by the members Of the Bourbon
County Exemption Board. The docu-
ment, which was in pamphlet form,
was posted in the office of the Exemp-
ton Board, in the big Circuit Court
room in the court house, where the
examination of the men will take
place. The work of mailing out Off
cial notices will be begun to-day, and
it will probably be Monday before
the work of exemption can begin
The work of checking over the lists
was completed yesterday.
complete list of the men who will
be called on the first draft was posted
in the window of THE NEWS office
Wednesday afternoon, and was the
center of attraction for those who
were anxious to know where they
were "at." This same list is repub-
lished in THE NEWS to-day, and is
a perfectly authentic one, being
taken from the official list as sent out
from Washington, and received here
by the Board of Exemption.
A great deal of interest is being
manifested in the city and county by
those who will be subject to the first
call, and the local boys are anxiously
awaiting the arrival of the notifca-
ton cards through the mail. The
local Board of Exemption will have
charge of the examination only on
the point of physical fitness, and the
Eastern District Board, which
will sit at its Office in Lexington, will
take up the matter to pass upon the
exemptions.
1t is highly probable that the men
will be ordered to report on Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday of next week
to be examined, as the Board hopes
to have everything in smooth run
ming order by that time for the pur
pose. One essential thing which the
drafted man MUST understand thor
oughly is that liability to appear will
not be abrogated because of the fail
ure of any man to get his notification
card through the mail. The posting
of the numbers at the court house is
all that it necessary, and Uncle Sam
expects every drafted man to be on
hand when the time for appearance
comes.
The Division Exemption Board
which will be in session ct Lexington
will have in its charge all appeals
from the counties in the district. In
its hands, also, are decisions on all
occupational claims for exemption.
Each man selected as qualified for
service by the lower or local eXemp-
ton boards will then have his case
taken before the District Board.
