Are you elected,


The master lists for the registration
have been received ~ the local board,
the first list to be examined wes post
ed yesterday and notices to appear for
examination are in the mails.
The physical examination, in charge
Of DR.. Baer, Of Braddock, will begin
Tuesday morning, August 7th, at the
Office Of the board which in this in
stance 'is in the court house.
So far ~ il known 1T this time
Emmons county will have to furnish
eighty-seven men, who can pass the
physical examination and who have no
reason for being exempt. A credit
for enlistments of twenty-four has
besn given the county. Only enlist
ments beween April 5th and June 30th
are counted on this draft.
Three hundred and forty eight
names from the head of the list have
been taken and these men will be sum-
moned for examination. All persons
whose names appear in the first
eighty-seven of the official list pub
lished herewith will be ordered to re-
port for examination on Tuesday
morning, August 7th. The next
eighty-seven will appear Wednesday,
August 9th, in the morning. The
third eighty-seven will be examined
Thursday and the final e;ghty-seven
Friday.
The local board has decided that
the exemptions for one reason OF an
other will be about three out of four,
and have decided to call for the first
~exa1ainAtion 4ours times the -4oGlc;al
quota. These men will be given the
physical examination. However,
should the required number be Sc
cured before the entire list of exam
ined men had been gone over, the men
at the lower end of the list would
have no further inconvenience than
the physical examination. The first
eighty-sevcn men finally recommended
for service will close the books so far
as the first draft is concerned. There
fore, if you are near the bottom of
the bunch called for examination, you
may not necessarily be called to serve
in the first army, even though you
may have been examined.
Thereare great many of the draft
ed men whose names appear in the
first lists who have already enlisted
in some branch of the service. No
credit is given the county at this time
for these enlistments, and for that
reason, men far down the line may
look for chance to be called to the
service simply because large number
of the men ahead of them have enlist
ed voluntarily.
We are printing the official list this
week of the men called for examina-
tion and the date when they must ap-
pear. If your name is included here
with, watch the postoffice for your
notification card. If you don't get it
promptly, get in touch with the local
board.

BRITISH EXPLOSION

London. Jan. 22.-Throughout Sun
day, thousands of persons flocked to
East London hoping to satisfy their
curiosity as to the effect of Fridays
explosion in the munition factory
there. None of them. however, was
able to obtain a near view of the
scene owing to rigid police regulations
and could only wnnGer through the
outlying streets, where most of the
windows were shattered by the con-
cussion.
The newspaper reporters who We're
allowed to approach nearer the scene
describe what was formerly the site of
the explosive store as a nol. 100 yards
across and so feet deep. with masses
of earth. iron and all sorts of wreck
age covering an area of about six
acres around the hole. Within that
area the destruction was absolute.

The Entry Who Works for a
Living.

The fear has been expressed, in re-
gard to the recent golf ruling. that
the game would be turned over to the
Idle Rich Athletic association. This
theory doesn't seem to carry through.
Practically every golf victor for the
last 10 years in the championship
forum has had to work for his living.
Bob Gardner only gets chance to
play golf on Saturday afternoons and
Sundays. He rarely enters a tourna-
mcnt. jerry Travcrs. n five time
champion, plays no great amount Of
golf through the time he gives to work.
Oswald Kirby. Metropolitan and Jer-
sey champion. plays in few tourna-
ments and rarely oftener than once a
week through the summer on account
OF the pressure of business.
On the big average, the entry who
has to work for a living develops a
fibre thereby that is frequently lack
ing in the man who isn't called upon
to get out and hustle for enough to
live on.

it is different when one learns
that for fifteen years, even such
