Great Draft Lottery Continues
for 16 Hours Before Final
Number Is Drawn.

Washington, July 21.-America' s
great army Of democracy has been
drafted. At 9:49 o'clock on Friday
morning Secretary of War Baker,
blindfolded, drew from a big glass
bowl the first capsule and the number
In 1t was announced as 258. Other
distinguished officials in turn drew out
numbers, and then the task was turned
over to the regular tellers, who worked
steadily at it until early Saturday
morning, when the final capsule was
drawn.
The beginning of the draft was par
ticipated in and witnessed by COM
accommodated and was surrounded
with all due solemnity. After Sec
rotary Baker had drawn the first num-
Der, seven others were drawn by Sen
ator Chamberlain of the senate mill
tary committee, Congressman Dent of
the house military committee, Sena-
tor Warren and Representative Kahn,
ranking minority members of the SEN
ate and house military committees;
Maj. Gen. Tasker Fl. Bliss, acting
chief of staff of the army; Maj. Gen.
Enoch Crowder, provost marshal of
the army and Major General Mccain,
adjutant general of the army.
More than million men were rep
resented by the first 1000 numbers
drawn, according to an official state
ment, and 1t is likely that only the
first 1000 drawn will be called before
the exemption boards for the first
army. The numbers above a few
thousand will not affect registrants
except in small number Of the larg-
est districts. OF the 4,557 registration
districts throughout the country the
largest has something over 10000
numbers, while the smallest has only
about 1876, and the average is about |
1900. AS the drawing proceeded, 1877 |
numbers were withdrawn before one
low enough to affect the smallest dis
trict came out. 1t was 126, placing |
4,557 men numbered 126 on their local |
lists as 18TH in order of liability.
The following list shows the num-
bers in the order in which they were
drawn. The first number in each case
represents the order in which the sec
Ond, or red-ink registry, number was
taken from the bowl. -Four numbers
are given in each line, beginning with
the first number, which was drawn by
Secretary Baker.

WOMEN TO REGISTER

United States Food Commissioner
Hoover is trying to get the women to
register early in July. We are train
ing and organizing a nation and as
each should do that to which he is as
signed, the women should be organ
lied to meet the food question; young
men and women should be trained to
take care of our offices and business
interests.
Secretary of War Daniels and two
other Cabinet officers announced on
the 14th day of June that women
would be given the preference in all
their departments hereafter. Before
the boys and girls can acceptably fill
such positions they must have Bus
mess Training. They can get this bus
mess training from our experts in less
time and at a smaller expense than
anywhere else. We have just adopted
a Home Study Course of Shorthand
which enables anyone to study at home
with small part Of the expense of
going away to school.
Text Book Companies advise that
prices for books will be revised up
wards on or before Aug. list. Many
are ordering their text books now so
as to guarantee the present prices.
Shall we order yours? Write to us,
or call and see US, and we will tell you
some of the many things we can do
for you. Geo. A. Miller, Business

DO NOT MARKET LAYING HENS

Under ordinary conditions at least
one-half of the farm poultry flock
should be replaced each year. How
ever, conditions are unusual this year,
and G. w. Harvey of the University of
Missouri College of Agriculture is
urging farmers to increase their poul-
try iocks one-half and to keep every
hen which is in laying condition. He
summarizes the conditions affecting
poultry keepers as follows: excessive
cost of feed, uncertain prices for mar
ket poultry, and certain high egg
market.
The high price of feed has caused
many farmers to market poultry
stock. AS usual, many of these chick
ems are hens. In view of feed cost
Mr.. Harvey believes that market
prices are not high enough to justify
selling hens especially when each hen
properly managed represents at least
$3.50 year.
Prices received for eggs this spring
have been high and conditions point
to high prices throughout the sum-
mer. Furthermore, there is reason to
believe that egg prices next winter
will be even higher than they were
last winter.
Mr.. Harvey has suggested that it
will not pay the farmer to keep male
birds during the summer. Every sur
plus cockrel should be marketed as
soon as it weighs pound and half,
and every effort should be devoted to
raising as many pullets as possible.

children have right to know also;
and under such conditions thought is
attuned as never before to hear the
"still small voice" of Truth bringing
the answer to our questioning. In the
midnight hush before the mornings
fray many man has found beneath
alien skies the God whom he had failed
to find at home, the God who had been
near him all the time-just waiting.
Is not all this worth while? Is
there, indeed, anything in the world
which can be compared to finding
God, a God not received by tradition
from your fathers" but one whom we
may know and love and understand,
God who is working out his own
wise purposes in His own wise way?
Then let US not be dismayed, even in
the very presence of the worst that
mortal mind can do. Let US read in
the signs of the times a prophecy of
better things to come. Let US watch
with hope and courage for the dawn.
The day-star will surely arise upon
that longed-for morning when uni
versal and permanent peace shall
reign, not because the nations of the
earth are slumbering in Supplying
dissatisfaction, but because they are
at last awake.

FOOLED BY "wHITE TRASH

Jefferson City, Mo-, June 22.-
John L. Sullivan, Secretary of State,
today told this incident of the regis
tration under the CONSUMPTION act in
his home town, Sedalia:
An Afro-American known as
"Hawk" is one of the town characters
of Sedalia. "Hawk" is 81 years old,
consequently exempt from registra-
ton, but some of his white friends in
spirit of mischief, told him the max
imum age limit applied only to white
men and that negroes regardless of
age were to be drafted.
AS registration day approached the
negro developed various infirmities.
He limped, complained of divers
pains and finally appeared on the
streets wearing smoked spectacles.
Hawk" said one of his white
friends, "that was a fine parade the
Knights Templar had yesterday. Did
you see it,"
"No, sab, couldn't see no parade"
was the reply. "Doan you'alls see
Ise got awful defective eyesight? But,
Boss, heard 'em go by and it must
er been a powahful fine parade"
A few days later, when "Hawk"
found out he was really over the con-
scription age he recovered his eye
sight and smashed his smoked glasses
in disgust.

the world wide Armageddon wherein
the false and spurious perish, seethed
in the melting pot of purifying fires.
From the ashes of it all what phoe-
nix may arise no one today can fore
tell. We can glimpse, however, some
of the many changes which must in
evitably come when "the tumult and
the shouting die" In the first place,
it is not unreasonable to hope that the
awfulness, the far reaching effect of
the present struggle, will so entirely
impress the world that all nations
shall agree to disarm permanently,
thus adding to the worlds producers
millions of men who in the past have
been consumers only. Thus the in
credible sums of money expended in
their maintenance would go for the
betterment rather than for the de-
struction of mankind.
Then, too, the present experience
presents opportunities hitherto un-
known for the leveling of caste, the
laying aside of old feuds and griev-
ances, the forgetting of past differ
ences of opinion, and the submergence
of self-interest, self-aggrandizement,
graft, greed, and political chicanery
in the desire to be loyal citizens first
of all. Labor and capital will find a
more common ground, woman will
take her rightful place in the worlds
economics, prohibition will receive an
impetus, national resources and in
dustries as yet unknown will be de-
veloped by reason of the exigency of
the moment, and the pride of man.
mon will be laid low as rich and poor
march side by side.
But best of all and above all is the
fact that a world confronted by a
problem so vast as this must begin to
think as never before. The religion
of their fathers is thought good
enough for most people in times of
sunshine; but when the rains descend
and the floods come and beat upon the
house-the consciousness--that is the
real testing time. If it is built upon
a rock, upon Truth, it stands; but if
it rests merely upon theory, tradi-
ton, ecclesiasticism, dogma, blind be-
lief, ignorance or superstition,sit will
crumble into dust at our feet. There
is a new religion springing up in the
trenches-call it by whatever name
you please. Men are asking of their
own hearts questions which will no
longer be silenced by the old evasive
answer, at is not for us to know"
In times of stress the heart is no
longer satisfied to accept the eastern
poets dull philosophy that it is enough
because Gle knows about il all-He
knows!-He knows!" We as Gods

showed from the South Atlantic
States, 400 per cent, and lao per
cent for the New England States. In
both of these comparisons, only ma
tive whites of native percentage, were
considered The percentage of illit-
eracy among the urban white popula-
ton is estimated to be only nine
tenths of one per cent; rural illiteracy
among the same class of inhabitants
is 600 per cent greater, and due to the
influence of bad roads upon the school
and social lines of the rural popula-
ton. Bad road condition infiict hard
ship upon the one-room district school.
During much of the school term, a
considerable part of the two million
miles of our public roads is impass-
able.
Consequently, of the thirty million
or more children in the United States
who should attend school, only eight
cen million are attempting to do so.
1t is common practice to keep the chill
dren at home on account of bad roads,
and frequently the average small at
tendance is so greatly reduced that
the efficiency of the one-room school
is materially affected. The question
of the relations between road condi-
tions and the rural schools is one that
should be carefully studied. Forum
ately, some rural communities are be-
ginning to awaken to its Importance
and are apparently more willing to
support better schools and to support
the building Of good roads, so as to
permit the consolidation of the one
room schools into a large, graded
school, and to permit the carrying of
scholars to and from their homes at
public expense with the use of a
school wagon.
The Consolidated School is also be-
coming the social and intellectual CEN
ter of communities, the gathering
place for public meetings of all kinds;
and frequently the school wagons are
pressed into service for hauling the
farmers to and from the meetings.
The maintenance of the Consolidat-
ed Schools, with the transfer of the
scholars to and from schools, does not
cost any more than the numerous one
room schools, and it does offer greater
educational and social opportunities.
There is also a marked tendency for
property owners to improve the ap-
pearance and surroundings of their
homes and buildings, as the roads
upon which they are located are inn
proved. You find no abandoned farms
upon good roads.
