There is a general misunderstand- ing regarding the purpose of the cen sus to be taken on June 5. A great number of persons are under the impression that when they register their name they have been drafted in the United States army. To dis pei this delusion Col Breen wishes 1t understood that the work of draft. ing the men for the new army will not commence until at least . month after the census is completed. Ths purpose Of registering all male citi- zens between the ages of twenty-one and thirty inclusive is to secure an available list of men in the country within the military age limit. After this has been secured the call to arms win bs sent to . sufncieat mum ber to mobilize an army Of at Least z,0ee. .00e.
