The city selective board, in charge of the work of selecting the men from Pine Bluff for service in the new na- tlonal army, held long session last night at it's headquarters in the court house and when the session concluded, gave out a list of 62 men, several of them of more than ordinary promin- ence, as having been selected for ser vice in the new national army
 Members of theb oard announced that they have not finally discharged any man, except for strictly physical reasons. Men who have not filed claims for exemption, and who have not been accepted, have been discharg- ed only for the time being, the board working on the general rule that la- boring man upon whom is dependent a wife and one or more children, should thus be considered.
 The boad made it plain that the names in the list following will be certified today to the adjutant gen eral, and that if there is any person who knows of any reason why any of the men in the following list should be discharged-or if there is any req sons why men already temporarily discharged should be brought into the army-those persons should make known such information to the board today
 We have acted to the very best of our ability, and in the most fair man. ner that we could," it was stated by Chairman Powell, with the acquies- cence of Secretary w. c. Hudson and Dr. k. C.. McMullen, land we want to know anything of value in connection with these cases, on behalf of the men as well as on behalf of the govern ment. We can reopen any of these cases at any time in the very near fu- ture, if the information given us is of sufficient importance"
