BOLD BAD BURGLAR
Fooled IN ATTEMPT

A bold bad burglar or more of them
made an attempt to rob the home of
Charles N Bruegger, 800 Ninth street,
about midnight of Friday while the
man of the house was not at home. He
effected an entrance through cellar
window and reached the upper floor,
but in doing so made noise which
awakened Mrs. Bruegger, who called
tor help. The burglar used flashlight,
thinking doubtless that no one was at
home as the family had been away
during the day.
When the alarm was sounded and
neighbors and the police arrived, the
burglar had disappeared and left no
clue. Mr.. Bruegger is railway mail
clerk.

Mildred, with q glance at Jimmy's
unexpectedly frowning face, dimpled
mischievously.
''Id be delighted" she answered.
When they returned from the dance,
they found Jimmy standing where
they had left him. During the five
minutes in which Mildred had danced
with Hastings, Jimmy's heart had re-
vealed itself. Waiting in the shadows
Of the porch, under the lure of soft
music, Jimmy suddenly discovered
that Mildred ,McAdams meant more
to him than anyone else In the world.
He tried to smile when the other
two returned Hastings, his face rath-
er flushed, nodded absently to Jimmy.
"Millie Is just as perfect dancer as
she ever was" he announced. Then
he turned to the girl. II hope that you
will give me good many more dances
tonight"
Mildred glanced at Jimmy, who was
glarilg at her almost fiercely. Some
thing in his eyes made her catch her
breath sharply; and her heart sudden
ly threatened to run away from her.
"You may have the third one after
this" she said to Hastings, "and after
that I'll think about it,"
Jimmy claimed Mildred as his part
ner for the second dance. He didn't
say much, but the girl imagined that
he held her just q little tighter than
was necessary. When the dance was
over he led her out into the farthest
recess Of the porch.

"Yes; very much"

Regard to Exemption

The actual drafting of the first esq.,

probably begin this week.

any of the classes specifically exempt
ed by law, should he make applica-
fi0n for exemption, will be tested en-
tirely by the governments need for
his services.
He will be assigned to whatever
task the government deems it needs
him mOst-whether in the field, in a
munitions factory, or in the civil en-
ployment in which he now is.
Initially the applications for indi-
vidual exemptions will be heard by the
district board. From it's decision
either the Individual or the govern
ment, as the case may be, has an APP
peal.
Even those specifically exempted
under the draft law must file affdav-
its supporting their claims to exemp-
tons.
The local exemption boards will in
a few days certify the names of men
physically able to perform military
service and having no dependents, in
the order i'm which their numbers were
drawn in the lottery.
