Gravel Could be Obtained
To Surface Main Street

A few years ago, while the C.. & N.
W. Ry. "a being graveled, an oppor-
tunity was offered to this city 10
gravel its Main street. From their
superior hejghth Of view, thu city Of.
fcers decided II was Improbable"
much 20 the disc .ft'ntment OF many.
II not 4 majority, Ct the city's l1pu
,ation. No log'"l reason was adj
vanced, except thu remark If a wei.
Known city humorist that some
memne:- - the CO 'ncil hi perfectly
new au :'':rs nJ they f,ird tho
gravel w)u,d hump their .ifes"
But speaking seriously" as the
orator says, after he has entertained
his audience with more or less ancient
witicisms, there may be another OPP
%portunity at hand to obtain gravel.
due to the fact that the c. & N. w.
has again opened its gravel pit at
Blunt and Is nov hauling train loads
to gravel it's road bed between Huron
and Aberdeen. II is only a question
of time until Miller must follow the
progress Of other towns. and put sonts
kind of a surface upon her Main
street. What kind will 1t be? Some
favor gravel, while others think II
should be the modern paving.

900 young men listed for the draft

ed the following statement, conferr-
ing previous military operations:

WEST HAND
From Rec Heights Review


Just about noon Tuesday word
came in over the phone that Jake
Ruggenberg's new barn two miles
southeast of here, was on fire. and
by the time help could get to the
place, 1t was a total loss. A bin of
barley was saved by hard work, and
some of the stock, work horses and
calves, were saved. A pony, one re-
gistered bull and a number OF calves
burned with the barn. 1t was a new
building, put up last fall. We UNDER
stand Jake had $1,000 insurance,
which will help some. The only cause
for the confiagration seems to be
Spontaneous combustion" Jake hav-
ing put a load or two of very green
hay In the barn a week or so ago.
Mrs. J. K. Berry is enjoying a visit
from her brother, Mr.. Lindley and
family, from New York state. Mr..
Lindley was a resident here in the
early days. holding down a homestead
in Campbell township.

Exemption Appeal Boards
Named by the President

Boards OF appeal have been or
will be selected in each state, to re-
ceive and consider appeals from the
decision OF local exemption boards.
These boards will be named by the
President. In addition to considering
appeals, these boards will have ORR
ginal and final powers in occupational
exemption claims.
In other words, the county exemp-
ton boards will have no jurisdiction
in deciding whether the occupation of
a drafted man is more or less impor-
tant than his services as a soldier.

man is responsible himself for finding
out what steps in the draft process

onment is the penalty for violation.
Each man must find his own num-
Der, the place where his lists are
posted, and the headquarters of his
exemption board. He must find out IL
his number has been posted as one Of
those called on the first draft. He
also will receive an announcement
that he has been drawn. But he is re-
sponsible for knowing that fact whet-
her the announcement reaches him or
not. He should find out not only that
he had been drawn but the order in
which he has been drawn. His local
board will tell him, or he can examine
the list.
Then the Physical Examination
When it comes his turn to appear
for physical examination his board
will notify him of the fact. He must
appear on the day and hour set. II he
is found physically disqualified the
board will tell him SO. II he is quail
fled he will have seven days in which
to file a claim for exemption on some
other ground. If he is qualified and
files no claim for exemption his name
will stand as one ultimately to be
called for service.
The exemption claims, supported by
proofs, must be filed with the local
board in seven days. II he presents a
claim it will be passed on three days
after he has filed proof. IL exemp-
ton is granted a certificate will be
given him by his local board stating
that fact. Claims for exemption be-
fore the local boards can be based on
the following causes:
Exemption Claims

ficer.
A minister of the gospel.
A subject of Germany
A married man with dependent wife
or child.
A widowed mother, or infirm de-
pendent parents.
A member of a religious sect whose
creed forbade participation in war.
Appeals
BY asking his local board he can
learn how to file his proofs. For this
he has 10 days after filing his claim
for exemption. II his exemption claim
is refused he has 10 days more for
appealing to the district board of
exemptions. II it is granted he will
be given a certificate to that effect.
In case of appeal to the state board
the applicant a apply to the local
board for necessary blanks within ten
days.
Claims for exemption as a farmer
must be sent to the state board inside
of five days after the local board has
accepted him.
AS a last resort a man may appeal
to the President of the United States,
if he is dissatisfied with the findings
of both county and state boards.
