Wood County Exemption Board Notifying List
of 100 More Drafted Men

If the experience of the Exemption
Board of Wood County is that of other
Boards all over Wisconsin, it will GER
tainly go to prove that the physical
condition of the young men of this
state are very deficient. Out of 80
drafted men for the army in Wood
County that were examined here on
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday,
only 18 passed a good physical exam
ination that is required by Uncle Sam
for his army. This is very small
per cent taking all things in consid-
Grafton. The following is list of the
18 men who were satisfactory to the
local board. Sam Church, County
