Frank Sha, trusted member of Pro- ject Manager Schlecht's office force. They are all strapping fine fellows, physically, mentally and every other way. It is highly probable that all of them could have obtained exemp- tion had they so chosen, but each of them wanted to go to the front and help fight for the preservation of our country and the liberty of their fellow man. All honor to each of them and to every other young man who has been selected to go to the front. Ev cry one of them deserves just as much praise as can possibly be bestowed on them. They are fighting our bat ties and we should all be proud of them. It will be a glorious thing in- deed for Yuma county if our boys can have a hand in bringing the kaiser to his knees, but I would hate to be in the kaiser's boots if the Yuma con- tingent ever catches him.
 Three cheers and tiger for Yuma's selective draft. May they all be re- turned safely to the bosom of those who love them, and may they all so conduct themselves that Yuma will al ways feel proud of them.

FACTS AND FIGURES CONNECTED WITH YUMA
 COUNTS SELECTIVE DRAFT.

Yuma county's third contingent of the selective draft entrained for Camp Funston last night, cheered by thou sands of loyal citizens, and given an affectionate goodbye by their relatives and intimate friends. Like the preced- ing demonstrations given in honor of of the first two contingents sent tO training quarters this last demon stration proved that the citizens of Yuma county are loyal to the core.
 Tears mingled with cheers, while there was a silent prayer in the heart of every man, woman and child who took part in the demonstration that the war will have ended before our gallant boys reach the trenches in France.
 Through the courtesy of Recorder R. l. Vim, am enabled to give some facts and figures connected with the selective draft of Yuma's quota that are not generally known. The board is composed of Sheriff Mel Greenleaf, chairman; R. I. Vim, secretary; and Dr. c. E. Rooney, examining surgeon. Upon them rested the great respon- sibiiity of saying who should and who should not be sent to the front. They have performed their duties fearless ly and faithfully, without fear or fla vor, and great credit is due them for the patriotic manner in which they have performed their delicate duties
 In the aggregate 54S men were call ed for examination.
 Of this number 323 were examined.
 There were 137 aliens, who required no physical examination.
 Of the entire number called for eX animation (54S), there were SS who have not responded and naturally classed as slackers, tho it is more than probable that many of these are not entitled to be classed in that cate gory, but were either aliens, or tran sients when they were called and have never received their notices, or have been duly registered in some other county or state.
 Of the 323 men examined 220 sue cessfully passed the tests, while 1O3 were rejected for good causes.
 The board exempted S2 on account OP fc xrrhi n11f of h0 fnt Q who successfully passed the physical and mental examination 13S were cer tified for the draft, which composes the quota Yuma county has contrib uted to Uncle Sam's army now muster ed into service on behalf of democracy and the liberty of mankind.
 Yuma county's showing is about as good as that of any county of the western country. Some of our best young men have been called to the colors. Under the "selective draft" method, Uncle Sam has allowed no distinctions, for the rich and poor alike are now marching side by side, eating at the same mess table and bunking under the same tents. The local reclamation service lost four of its valued attaches, two in the second contingent and two who left last night. The former two were Luke Ellison, who assisted in the survey of the mesa, and George Robinson, who had charge of the drainage pump house at the Mixican boundary. The last two to leave were Photographer Ernest Stevenson, who used to make all the measurements of the waters and silt in the Colorado, and Wm.

labor in spare time, and many of them made in addition, goodly sums of pocket money. A fact that indicates the magnamity of the mining company is that during the strike that took place in the ensuing summer, many of these lot tenders joined the strikers The company did not mix it's labor problems with it's philanthropy, but allowed these strikers to continue in possession of their war gardens, add ing materially to their substance dur ing the long period that the timid pay check was hiding out.
 One of the big attractions at the state fair, will be a demonstration of tractors and other farm machines, on a 2O-acre tract secured for that spe- cial purpose, adjoining the fair grounds.
