THE LUCKY MAN WHO
ESCAPED THE DRAFT

He had good job and his name was
long way down in the draft list.
Folks said he was lucky and congrat-
ulated him - that is, some folks did i.
Others looked at him a little oddly,
thoughtfully, sort of measuring up
in their glance.
At first it seemed to him there was
only one sensible thing to do--go
right along with his job, enjoying an
occasional show and dance and the
hours of leisure that his work per-
mitted.
1t wasn't his fault, he told himself
that his name was so far down in the
draft. He had taken his chance in
the big game just like the others had
and had merely been luckier. He
would stay behind and continue to
have good time, while his more un-
fortunate friends whose numbers
were we'll up toward the front could
go and do the fighting.
But somehow it wasn't so easy as
he thought it would be. One after
another of his friends went into the
service. Some of them were already
somewhere in France" Everywhere
he went there were soldiers, men who
had given up the thing he purposet
to keep and enjoy.
After a while he could feel himself
almost wish his nupber had beer
closer to the top of tn list. He begar
to look away when he fs,s.t one of these
soldiers. He tried not to meet many
of them. There was something ap.
praising, accusing, he felt, in thc
looks that were bestowed upon him
Perhaps he really wasn't noticed in The
way he felt he was, but he imagined
he was, and it amounts to about thu
same.
And then-all at once-he realized
I
that his number was not so very fal
off. Hundreds of men asked exemp
ton and got it; many were PHYSICAL!
disqualified; and it began to look lik,
another call was necessary. The cal
came and he was in it. When he reat
his name posted among those callet
a queer sort of thrill passed through
him, and he didn't know whether h,
was glad or sorry.
Mentally he figured up what i
would cost him - comfort, ease ant
leisure; savings, chances for advance
ment and perhaps even life itself ant
all that life meant; its dreams ant
hopes and longings. But to stay be
hind or even feel that he didn't wan
to go would cost him his self-respect
the thing that no true man can affort
ever to lose. Better to die out in thI
wind bitten wastes Of the North Sci
or in the shell battered bitches il
France than to live self-appraised ant
adjudged a craven.
While he was thinking a man passet
by with bowed head, pale in face ant
utterly void of countenance {
man had been granted exemption
when he really wasn't entitled to ii
He shuddered at the narrowness o
his escape from being such as that.

members and all others interested in
school matters. Mr.. Hirth, editor
of the Missouri Farmer, will be with
us. Come and hear him. l am sorry
that / cannot announce now at what
time he will speak. think however
l shall be safe in announcing his talk
at two o'clock.
He will address you on the subject
of the great Farm Club movement
which is now sweeping the State from
end to end and which vitality concerns
every farmer in Missouri. He says
this great movement is not a fight
upon the country town, but on the
contrary it is the first time that q
farm organization has ever directed
its energies toward correcting condi-
tions in the market place in which the
packers combine and the grain spec
ulators have robbed the farmer out
of untold millions of dollars from
time out of mind, and that therefore
the slogan of the Farm Clubs Isl
Production cost together with rea-
sonable profit for the fruits of the
farmers sweat and toll"
