PLANS FOR NEXT DRAFT
All Men to Be Questioned and Listed
In Classes.

Washington, NOV. little five
classes into which 100000 men reg
istered for military duty-and those
who are registered hereafter-are
divided and the order in which they
will be called for service were offici-
ally announced today in the provost
marshal generals QUESTIONABLE
Which every registered man must fill
out and file The order shows some
change from the tentative draft pub
lished some time ago.
Contrary to some published reports
it does not exempt married men as
class, but it does place married
men with dependent wives and chill
dren far down OH 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 five official
classifications of registrants follow:
Glass /.
(A)-Single men without depend
ent relatives.
OBJ Married men, with or with
OFT children, or father of motherless
children, who has habitually failed to
support his family
(C)-Married men dependent on
wife for support.
(D)-Married men, with or without
children, or father of motherless
children; men not usefully engaged,
family supported by income indepen-
dent of his labor.
tE)-Unskilled farm laborer.
(F)-Unskilled industrial laborer.
Registrant by or in respect of
whom no deferred classification is
claimed or made.
Registrant who fails to submit ques
tionnaire and in respect of whom no
deferred classification is claimed or
made
All registrants not included in any
other division in this schedule.
Class II.
(A)-Married man with children or
father of motherless children where
such wife or children or such mother
less children are not mainly. depend
ent upon his labor for support for the
reason that there are other reason
ably certain sources of adequate
support Excluding earnings or pos
sible earnings from the labor of the
Wife, available, and that the removal
OF the registrant will not deprive
such dependents of support.
(B)-Married man, without chill
dren, whose wife, although the regis
trant is engaged in a useful occupa-
ton, is not mainly dependent upon
his labor for support, for the reason
that the wife is skilled in some speci-
al class of work which she is physi-
cally able to perform and in which
she is employed or in which there is
an immediate opening for her under
conditions that will enable her TO
support herself decently and without
suffering or hardship.
(C)-Necessary skilled farm labor

The Standing Of The Hudson Super-Six
in Remington

In the past year there have been
sold in the Town of Bennington
alone, fourteen Hudson Super Six Mo-
tor Cars. This equals the sale of
Twelve hundred dollars in price, re-
CARELESS of whether the cars were
sold by local dealers or purchased of
out Of town dealers.
There are in town old Hudson Cars
that have been we'll used and cared
for, and they run as well and look as
well as the day they were made. No
other cars have outdone the Hudsons
in Bennington in this particular
point. There are here, Hudsons that
have withstood the most extreme
hard usage with minimum of care
and in spite of it have served their
owners faithfully year in and out
One Hudson went through four com
plete years of daily service summer
and winter and in that time no man
ever saw the inside of motor, clutch,
transmission, or any of the vital parts
of the car Three of the first cars
ever turned out at The Hudson Fac
tory are alive here and giving good
service today.
Pride of ownership is great part
of the satisfaction derived from hay
ing fine motor car A talk with a
few Super Six owners will force con-
viction on anyone that owners OF no
other make of car are quite so proud
of their. car as are Hudson Owners.
1t will be noted that it is not what
they paid fer their Hudson that they
are proud OF, but what it is. and what
it does for them, and the satisfaction
they are obtaining from it that they
are proud of. A Hudson Owner, en-
yious OF the possessor of higher
priced car can't be found.

The registrant, after filing in the
inside of his QUESTIONABLE, indicates
on the front the class to which he
believes he should be assigned. If the
board agrees, there is no further ac-
ton necessary by either party until
the individual comes due for military
service and is called upon for physi-
cal examination If the board dis
agrees and places the registrant IN
another class. the machinery for ap-
peal to the district board is set In

NOTICE TO ADVERTISERS

Owing to the increased postage
rate and other costs of doing bust
ness, on and after Nov. l, 1917, all
small advertisements in The. Banner
must be paid for with the order, This
refers to wants" "for sales" and
other classified advertising, cards of
thanks, church and society advertis-
ing and other little advertisements
where the charge is less than S150.
The cost of opening a ledger account
and sending bills for these small
items is large in the course of year
and will be larger with the postage
rate increase This expense and labor
can be avoidc4 by advance payment
and it will cost the advertiser no
more. This rule will be enforced and
all will be treated alike.

records held by The Super Six have
demonstrated, not that The Hudson
lis the fastest car in the World, but
that it is the car that never fails to
do its best and keep doing it far be-
yond the endurance of men or other
cars.
For busy men with frequent visits
to cities necessary, The Super Six is
the one safe method of making train
schedule time or better. The car for
such use is becoming more and more
necessary. Fitting trips to train time
tables is extremely wasteful OF time

or manufacturing mans life these

you are ready, or wait for you to fin

it down and when held up for turns
or traffic it regains its speed in a

In these days when economy of ma

Hudson is a leader in economy. Our
owners make trips with full leads on

sixteen miles to the gallon. We go
