Editor Morgan City Review,
Morgan City, La.
Dear Sir
Your editorial, entitled The list
of registrants'' published in connec-
ton with the "order for liability for
military service, gives an estimate
or forecast of the time in which reg
istrants will be called for military
service; and while your reasoning IS
logical, it is not correct, as it is
drawn from the premises that the
calling of men for military service is
continuous, which it is not.
This Local Board, ST Mary Parish,
is called upon by the Government to
furnish Psi men to fill the quota as
signed to it in the present levy of an
army. After the PSI men have been
accepted at Camp Pike and the
Board has the Governments receipt
for that number, there will be NO
MORE MEN CALLED until the
President issues proclamation for
the raising of ANOTHER ARMY.
The Local Board hopes to be able to
furnish the 251 men out of the SOP
already called for examination with
out having to call any more. 1t
more have to be called for this pur-
pose, it will not be beyond the num-
Der 600. Therefore for all practical
purposes, /, every registrant, whose
number is over 600 need not expect
to be called before the Local Board
in St. Mary Parish, La, until the
President issues his proclamation. In
military circles, he is not expected to
do this until next spring, say March
1918. Neither you nor I nor any
one else can make any accurate fore
cast of how many armies will be
raised by the United States. It is
the future. 1t must take care Of it.
self; for the present it suffices to
assure every one over 600 in num-
Der that this Local Board does not
expect to have any authority to call
them until the spring of the year.
Only member Of the Local Board
can appreciate how serious this ques-
ton is, and can realize that your ed
jtorial tends to stir up uneasiness,
that the Local Board has taken pains
70 allay. Not day passes that reg
istrants and their immediate family
do not interview one or all of us as
to the nearness or remoteness Of IL
ability for military service, and our
answer has a direct bearing upon the
determination Of their problems Of
life.
For this reason, we wish to get as
quickly as possible to each citizen
his order or military number, but we
do not advise any forecast Of the !
number Of parish registrants being |
exhausted within one year. AS a
personal forecast, l do. not feel that
We will within the year 1918, pass the
number 1900, if one more army is
raised, or 1900 If two more armies
are raised. This Is purely . personal
estimate, not official Anyhow I do
advise each registrant under 100
not to make any change in his affairs
until the President has issued his
PROCLAMATION for the raising Of q Sec
md army.
Yours very truly,

Mothers Bill For Services.

/ Not long ago the worthy scion of
a highly respectable family living in
a fashionable part of Paris, who had
been>asked by his mother to do some
errands for her, presented her with
an itemized bill for services render
ed. The boy was twelve years old,
and had inherited his business in
stinct from his father, who occupies
a prominent place in the business
world of this city. The boy had
charged his mother with five errands
at ten cents each; he had charged her
with fifteen cents for carry the grass
from the small lawn in front Of their
residence. The whole bill totaled sew
enty-fve cents. The mother paid it,
and then she did some thinking.
Mother never presented her bill to
the boy. Mothers never do. She
didn't hand the boy bill for board,
schooling, lodging and clothing for
those twelve years. Neither did she
present a bill for the sleds, skates,
base balls and other articles which
she had contributed out of her own
purse toward HIS sports. She had

THE RED CROSS SOCIETY.

In an age charged with being sell
fish, sordid, and, commercial, there
has grown up and developed the
greatest organization for unselfish
service the world has ever seen-the
American Red Cross. The growth Of
the Red Cross Society is evidence not
to be controverted that the spirit of
service is strong in the hearts of the
people to-day. The work of the So
ciety demonstrates that there are
thousands who are willing to devote
their services/to humanity. and the
support given them by voluntary con-
tributions shows that there are hun
dreds of thousands more who are will
ling to devote portion of their
means to the alienation of suffering.
The activities of the Red Cross al
ways have been generously support
ed by the American public, but only
since "our own" soldiers began to
take place in the trenches alongside
our allies has this support become
bountiful. 1t is the suffering and
comfort of the men from "our own
neighborhoods" as well as the phys
ical needs of our allies for which the
Red Cross must now mobilize. The
result-a greater and more impera-
tive duty now confronts the giver in
America.
