CANNING DEMONSTRATION
10 BE Given by Miss Frances GeIsei,
Domestic Science Teacher In the
N. II. \. NJ the High School
Building Next Monday,
July 80, at . r. N.

Much has been written In periodi-
calls and bulletins have been Issued
from colleges and bureaus Of educa-
tlon concerning the conservation Of
resources In general and food In par
ticular. Our local papers have been
very liberal In their space for the dis
semination OF all such information.
And now, since Mr.. Harary G. Curran
has been appointed chairman Of the
National Council Of Defense OF Mason
County, he has secured the co-opera-
ton and services OF Miss Frances
Geisel, the teacher Of Domestic Sci
ence Of the Maysville High School and
a graduate Of the University Of Ken
lucky, under Miss Mary Sweeney, one
Of the country's noted Domestic Arts
teachers and writer's.
Miss Geisel Is to give demonstra-
ton of canning In the Domestic Sci
ence laboratory Of the High School
building Monday, July 30, at 3 p. m.
/ have no doubt that Just at this
particular time there are enough beans
going to waste in Mason county that
II canned, would very nearly supply
the county during the winter, and this
condition will prevail with certain
fruits and vegetables from this time
! on until the middle of October.
II Is certainly an effort In the right
direction, when teacher like Miss
Geisel donates her time and results
Of her training to the service of the
public. We hope that the people will
take advantage Of this demonstration
and be at the High School building In
large numbers. The Domestic Sci
ence laboratory is on the basement
floor of the High School building, cor.
ner Limestone and Second streets.
We will have little notices in to-
morrow's papers giving some specifi,
requests to those who may have prod
ucts available for canning.

WASHINGTON WAITS
""'''''''" first FIRST REPORT
Selection Boards Officials Are Anx'
iOus to Learn What VIII BE Per.
centage Of Exemptlons-Well.
tO.d0 Suburbs VIII BE
Hit Hard.

Washington, July 26--Reports Of the
first selection boards to Ill their quo
tas for the selective draft army are
eagerly awaited by Washington ofiic-
ials because they will give the first
definite information as to the probable
percentage of reflections to be expected
among the ten million registrants for
physical reasons or for dependents.
All available artistics indicate pro-
bable rejection Of one In every four for
physical disability. In particular To-
calities this will vary greatly, but the
average for the whole country Is ex-
pected to be between 25 and 30 per-
cent. There Is no available data as to
dependents, however, or as to how
many must be excused under indus
trial exemptions.
1t appears probably that peculiar re-
suits will be brought out In some dis
tricts. II the reasoning Of some Of
f1cials Is correct, the lowest rejection
and exemption rate will be disclosed in
well-to-do communities such as the
suburb of large cities where men of
comfortable incomes. Sons Of such
men, 1t Is suggested, have had better
food, better care and better surround
ings than the factory hands Of nearby
towns and they should be in better
physical condition.
Are Not Indispensable
AS a class such young men could
hardly be regarded as indispensable
officials say. in their civil, business
or industrial capacities, and depend
ents probably will not free as many
of them from service as of most other
classes.
In factory towns on the other hand
the rejection rate for physical dis.
ability probably will be high. The
fact that the men are confined 81,
days week at their machinery un'
doubtedly will have affected their ply
sical condition.
4 Virtually every married man Of those
\ registered in these places is the soil
support Of his wife and children ant
such men can not be taken. Also,
!. the industry in which they are engaged
is vital to the carrying on of the war
industrial exemptions will run high.
\ Only reports from selection and dis
trict boards in typical communitie
however, can show exactly what is t,
be expected. Roughly the war depart
