For instance, the first call might be for Nos. 1 to 100 in all districts. When the first exemption came in each district, No. 101 would be called and so on.
 To prevent embarrassment among those who arc exempt, the war de- partment has decided to give with each exemption certificate a bronze badge with the inscription. Exempt ed, U. S"
